24Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi, ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye, ngenyanga yetshumi, ngolwetshumi lwenyangaa, lisithi: 2 Ndodana yomuntu, zibhalele ibizo losuku, lwalona lolusuku; inkosi yeBhabhiloni yazimisa ukumelana leJerusalema ngalona lolusukub. 3 Njalo tshono umfanekisoc kuyo indlu evukelayo uthi kubod: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Beka imbiza, ibeke, futhi uthele amanzi kuyoe, 4 ubuthele iziqa zayo kiyo, zonke iziqa ezinhlef, umlenze lomkhono, uyigcwalise ngekhethelo lamathambog. 5 Thatha ikhethelo lomhlambi, ubuthelele lamathambo ngaphansi kwayo, kwenze kubile kuhle, kuphekwe lamathambo awo phakathi kwayo.

6 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Maye kuwo umuzi wegazih, imbiza omengulo wayo uphakathi kwayoi, lomengulo wayo kawuphumanga kuyo! Khupha isiqa ngesiqa, inkatho kayingaweli kuyoj. 7 Ngoba igazi lawo liphakathi kwawo, ulibeke edwaleni elizek, kawulithululelanga phezu komhlabathil ukuligqibela ngenhlabathim n. 8 Ukuze ngivuse intukuthelo, ukuze ngiphindisele impindiselo, ngibekile igazi lawo edwaleni elize, ukuze lingagqitshelwao.

9 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Maye kuwo umuzi wegazip! Lami ngizakwenza ibonda libe likhuluq. 10 Yandisa izinkuni, uphembe umlilo, uqede inyamar, uxubanise izinongo, lamathambo atshiswes. 11 Ubusuyibeka phezu kwamalahle ayo ingelalutho, ukuze kutshiset kuvuthe ithusi layou, lokungcola kwayo kuncibilike phakathi kwayov, kuqedwe umengulo wayow. 12 Izidinisile ngomtshikatshika, lomengulo wayo omnengi kawuphumanga kuyo. Umengulo wayo usemlilwenix. 13 Kulamanyala ekungcoleni kwakho; ngoba ngikuhlambulule, kodwa kawuhlambulukanga, kawuyikuhlambuluka ekungcoleni kwakho futhiy z, ngize ngihlalise ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwakhoa. 14 Mina Nkosi ngikhulumile; kuzafikab, ngikwenze; kangiyikuyekelac, kangiyikuba lesihawud, kangiyikuzisolae; njengokwendlela zakhof lanjengokwezenzo zakhog bazakugweba, itsho iNkosi uJehovah.

15 Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi, lisithi: 16 Ndodana yomuntu, khangela, ngizasusa kuwe isiloyiso samehlo akho ngokutshayai; kodwa ungalili, ungakhali inyembezi, futhi inyembezi zakho zingavelij. 17 Bubula, uthule, ungenzi isililo ngabafileyok l, ubophe iqhiye yakho phezu kwakhom n, ufake amanyathela akho enyaweni zakhoo, ungambombozi indevu zendebe yakho yangaphezulup, ungadli isinkwa sabantuq. 18 Ngasengikhuluma labantu ekuseni, lakusihlwa umkami wafa. Ngasengisenza ekuseni njengokulaywa kwamir.

19 Abantu basebesithi kimi: Kawuyikusitshela yini ukuthi lezizinto ziyini kithi, ukuthi wenze njes? 20 Ngasengisithi kubo: Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi lisithi: 21 Tshono kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizangcolisa indawo yami engcwelet, udumo lwamandla enuu, isiloyiso samehlo enu, lokuzwelwa ngumphefumulo wenuv w; njalo amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu eliwatshiyileyo azakuwa ngenkembax. 22 Khona lizakwenza njengoba ngenzile; kaliyikumbomboza indevu zendebe yangaphezuluy, kaliyikudla isinkwa sabantuz. 23 Lamaqhiye enu azakuba phezu kwamakhanda enua, lamanyathela enu ezinyaweni zenub; kaliyikulilac kaliyikukhala inyembezid; kodwa lizacikizeka ngenxa yeziphambeko zenue, libubule, omunye komunyef. 24 Ngokunjalo uHezekeli uzakuba yisibonakaliso kinig; lizakwenza njengakho konke akwenzileyoh; lapho sekufika lokhui, lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uJehovaj.

25 Futhi, wena ndodana yomuntu, kakuyikuba njalo yini ngalolosuku lapho engizasusa kubo inqaba yabok, intokozo yobuhle babo, isiloyiso samehlo abol m, lokuphakama komphefumulo wabo, amadodana abo lamadodakazi abon, 26 ngalolosuku kuzafika kuwe ophunyukileyo, ukwenza indlebe zakho zizweo? 27 Ngalolosuku umlomo wakho uzavulekela yena ophunyukileyop q; njalo uzakhuluma, ungabe usaba yisimungulur; ngokunjalo uzakuba yisibonakaliso kubos; khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosit.
