11 Laselifika ilizwi leNkosi kimi lisithi: 12 Tshono khathesi kuyo indlu evukelayof: Kalazi yini ukuthi lezizinto ziyinig? Uthi: Khangela, inkosi yeBhabhiloni yafika eJerusalemah, yathatha inkosi yayo leziphathamandla zayo, yabaletha ngakuyo eBhabhiloni. 13 Yathatha owenzalo yesikhosini, yenza isivumelwano layei, yamngenisa phansi kwesifungoj; yathathak abalamandla belizwel; 14 ukuze umbuso ube phansim, ungaziphakamisi, ukuthi ngokulondoloza isivumelwano sakhe ume. 15 Kodwa wayivukelan ngokuthuma izithunywa zakheo eGibhithep q, ukuze bamnike amabhiza labantu abanengir. Uzaphumelela yinis? Owenza lezizinto uzaphepha yini? Kumbe angasephula isivumelwano aphephe yinit? 16 Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehovau, isibili endaweni yenkosiv, embeka ukuthi abe yinkosiw, osifungo sayo wasidelelax, losivumelwano sayo wasephulay, uzakufa layo phakathi kweBhabhiloniz. 17 Njaloa uFaro, lebutho elilamandla lexuku elikhulub, kayikumsiza empini ngokubuthelela idunduluc langokwakha inqabad, ukuquma abantu abanengi. 18 Ngoba edelele isifungoe ngokwephula isivumelwanof, lapho, khangela, esenikele isandla sakheg, wazenza zonke lezizinto, kayikuphunyukah.

Lizakwazi-ke ukuthi mina iNkosi ngikhulumilet.

22 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lami ngizathatha esihlokweni somsedari omude, ngikumiseu.
