1Izwi likaJehova lafika kimi, lathi:
2Ndodana yomuntu, bhekisa ubuso bakho ezintabeni zakwa-Israyeli, uprofethe ngazo,
3Uthi: ‘Zintaba zakwa-Israyeli, yizwani izwi leNkosi uJehova; Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova kuzo izintaba namagquma, imifula nezigodi; bheka, ngiyakwehlisela inkemba phezu kwenu, ngichithe izindawo zenu eziphakemeyo;
4Ama-altare enu ayoba yihlane, nezithombe zenu zichotshozwe; futhi ngiyonilahla phansi nina eninqotshiwe phambi kwezithombe zenu.
5Ngiyakubeka phansi izidumbu zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli phambi kwezithombe zabo; ngiyakuwahlakaza amathambo enu nxazonke zama-altare enu.
6Kuzo zonke izindawo zenu zokuhlala imizi iyakuchithwa, izindawo eziphakemeyo zibe yihlane; ukuze ama-altare enu abhidlizwe, abhidlizwe, kwaphulwe izithombe zenu ziphele, kugawulwe izithombe zenu ezibaziweyo, nemisebenzi yenu yenziwe ize.
7Abanqotshiweyo bayakuwa phakathi kwenu, nazi ukuthi nginguJehova.
8Kepha ngiyakushiya insali, ukuze nibe nabaphunyuka enkembeni phakathi kwezizwe, lapho nihlakazwa emazweni.
9Abaphunyukileyo kini bayakungikhumbula phakathi kwezizwe abayothunjelwa kuzo, ngokuba ngiphukile izinhliziyo zabo eziyisifebe ezingishiyileyo namehlo abo aphinga nezithombe zabo; banengwe ngenxa yobubi ababenzile kuzo zonke izinengiso zabo.
10Bayakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova, nokuthi angishongo ngeze ukuthi ngiyakubenza lobu bubi kubo.
11Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova, ithi: Shaya ngesandla sakho, unyathele ngonyawo lwakho, uthi: ‘Maye kuzo zonke izinengiso ezimbi zendlu yakwa-Israyeli! ngokuba bayakuwa ngenkemba, nangendlala, nangesifo.
12Okude uyakufa ngesifo; oseduze uyakuwa ngenkemba; nosalayo evinjezelwe uyakufa ngendlala; ngakho ngizakwehlisela ulaka lwami phezu kwabo.
13Niyakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova, lapho ababuleweyo babo bephakathi kwezithombe zabo nxazonke zama-altare abo, phezu kwawo wonke amagquma aphakemeyo, naphezu kwazo zonke iziqongo zezintaba, naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, naphansi kwawo wonke ama-oki aminyeneyo, indawo lapho ama-oki ahlala khona. Othandekayo wazinukela amakha kuzo zonke izithombe zabo.
14Ngiyakwelulela isandla sami kubo, ngenze izwe libe yihlane, yebo, ihlane njengogwadule ngaseDiblati kuzo zonke izindawo zabo zokuhlala; bazakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova.
