1Kwathi ngomnyaka weshumi elinesibini, ngenyanga yeshumi elinesibini, ngolokuqala enyangeni leyo, kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,

2Nyana womntu, menzele isimbonono uFaro ukumkani waseYiputa, uthi kuye, Unjengehobe leentlanga, unjengentlanzi enkulu elwandle; waphuma nemijelo yakho, namanzi ngeenyawo zakho, wayihlambela imijelo yabo.

3Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi; Ngako oko ndiya kuzizisa phezu kwakho ndinengxokolo yeentlanga ezininzi; baya kunitsala ngomnatha wam.

4Ndiya kukulahlela ezweni, ndikujule emhlabeni, zihlale phezu kwakho zonke iintaka zezulu, ndiwazalise amarhamncwa elizwe ngawe.

5Ndiya kuyibeka phezu kweentaba inyama yakho, ndizalise iintlambo ngobude bakho.

6Ndiya kulinyakamisa ilizwe odada kulo ngegazi lakho, linyuke lize ezintabeni; imilambo iya kuzala ngawe.

7Ndiya kulisibekela izulu ekunikhupheni kwam, nizenze mnyama iinkwenkwezi zaso; ndiya kulisibekela ilanga ngamafu, nenyanga ingakhanyisi ngokukhanya kwayo.

8Ndiza kuzenza zibe mnyama zonke izibane eziqaqambileyo esibhakabhakeni ngenxa yakho nobumnyama phezu kwelizwe lakho,’ itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova.

9Ndiza kuzikhathaza iintliziyo zeentlanga ezininzi ekuziseni kwam intshabalalo phakathi kweentlanga kumazwe obungawazi.

10Ndiya kuzimangalisa ngawe iintlanga ezininzi, babe nokoyika kunene ookumkani bazo, ekulinyuseni kwam ikrele lam phambi kwabo; baya kugubha ngamaxesha onke, elowo ngenxa yomphefumlo wakhe, ngemini yokuwa kwakho.

11Kuba itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova ukuthi, ‘Umkhonto wokumkani waseBhabhiloni uya kukuhlasela.

12Ndiya kusiwisa isihlwele sakho ngamakrele abo banamandla, abacinezeli beentlanga, bephela;

13Kwaye yonke imfuyo yakhe ndiya kuyitshabalalisa emanzini amaninzi; nonyawo lomntu aluyi kuba sabaphazamisa, namanqina eenkomo akasayi kuba sabaphazamisa.

14Ndiya kuwenza abe nzulu amanzi ayo, nemilambo yayo iqukuqele njengeoli,’ itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova.

15Xa ndilenza ilizwe laseYiputa libe yintlango ndize ndithabathe ilizwe elizeleyo, ukuba ndiya kuboyisa bonke abemi balo, baya kwazi ke ukuba ndinguYehova.

16Siso esi isikhalo abaya kumkhalela ngaso: Iintombi zeentlanga ziya kumkhalela; baya kuyimbambazelela iYiputa nengxokolo yayo yonke; itsho iNkosi uYehova.

17Ngomnyaka weshumi elinesibini, ngolweshumi elinesihlanu enyangeni leyo, kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi,

18Nyana womntu, yililela ingxokolo yeYiputa, uyizise kwelabafileyo, yona neentombi zeentlanga, kwese eziphelweni zehlabathi, nabahla baye emhadini.

19Ngubani oyena umhle ngaphezu kwakhe? yihla, uye kulala nabahlobo bakho.

20Baya kuwa phakathi kwababuleweyo ngekrele; wanikwa umkhonto; yiqweqwediseni, nengxokolo yayo yonke.

21Ziya kuthetha kuye iinjengele zamagorha eHadesi, ndawonye nabancedi bakhe, bathi, balele, balele, abangalukileyo, babulewe ngekrele.

22Ukhona uAsiriya nengxokolo yakhe yonke; Angaphakathi kuye amangcwaba akhe; mabawe likrele bonke ababuleweyo;

23abekwe emacaleni omhadi, namangcwaba ayo amaninzi phakathi; bonke ababuleweyo, abawe likrele, abalothusayo ilizwe labahleliyo.

24Ukhona uElam, nengxokolo yakhe yonke engeenxa zonke engcwabeni lakhe, bonke ababuleweyo, abawa ngekrele, abehlayo waya ezindaweni ezisezantsi bengalukile, ababesothusa ilizwe labahleliyo; noko ke, babeneentloni ngabo kunye nabo behla beza kubo.

25Bamenzela isilili phakathi kwababuleweyo, yena nebandla lakhe lonke; Azele nguye amangcwaba akhe: bonke abangalukileyo, bebulewe ngekrele; nakubeni uloyiko lwabo lwalusehlabathini labaphilayo, ukanti babenentloni ngabo nabo babehlela ezantsi esihogweni; Ubekwe phakathi kwabo boyisiweyo.

26Ukhona uMesheki, noTubhali, nengxokolo yakhe yonke; baphahlwe ngamangcwaba akhe: bonke bengalukile, bebulewe ngekrele; ngokuba besothuse ilizwe labahleliyo.

27Kwaye abayi kuba nabuhlobo kunye namageza awileyo kwabo bangembanga abo babahlisela emhadini nezixhobo zabo zemfazwe; babeke amakrele abo phantsi kweentloko zabo; ubugwenxa babo buwafikele emathanjeni abo, nakuba besoyikwa ngamagorha ezweni labahleliyo.

28Ewe, uya kwaphulwa phakathi kwabangalukanga, yaye uya kudibana nababuleweyo ngekrele.

29Ukhona uEdom, nookumkani bakhe, nabathetheli bakhe bonke, abatshabalalayo emandleni abo ngababuleweyo ngekrele; baya kulala kwabangalukileyo nabehle baye emhadini.

30Zikhona iinkosana zasentla, zonke ziphela, namaTsidon onke, ezehlileyo zabulawa; ngenxa yokunkwantya kwabo baya kudana ngenxa yamandla abo; yaye balala benganqunyulwanga kunye nabo babulewe ngekrele, yaye bathwele ihlazo labo kunye nabo behlayo baya enkampini.

31uFaro uya kubabona aze athuthuzeleke ngenxa yesihlwele sakhe sonke, esinguFaro nawo wonke umkhosi wakhe wamajoni owoyiswe ngekrele,’ itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova.

32Kuba ndibangele ukuba koyikwe kum kwilizwe labaphilayo, yaye uya kulala phakathi kwabangalukanga kwanabo babulewe ngekrele, uFaro nesihlwele sakhe sonke,’ itsho iNkosi enguMongami uYehova.
