Lizangibuyisela umvuzo yini? Uba-ke lingibuyisela, masinyane ngokuphangisao ngizabuyisela umvuzo wenu ekhanda lenup. 5 Ngoba lithethe isiliva sami legolide lami, laletha izinto zami eziloyisekayo ezinhle emathempelini enuq. 6 Lathengisar abantwana bakoJuda labantwana beJerusalemas ebantwaneni bamaGriki, ukuze libasusele khatshana lomngcele wabot. 7 Khangelani, ngizabavusa endaweni elabathengisa kiyo, ngibuyisele umvuzo wenu ekhanda lenuu. 8 Njalo ngizathengisa amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu esandleni sabantwana bakoJudav, abazabathengisa kumaSabeya esizweniwx esikhatshanay; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.

13 Fakanij isikelak, ngobal isivuno sivuthiwem; wozani lehlele phansi, ngoba isikhamelo sewayini sigcwelen, amafatshi ewayini ayaphuphumao, ngoba ububi babo bukhulu. 14 Amaxuku, amaxukup esihotsheniq sesinqumor; ngoba usuku lweNkosi luseduzes esihotsheni sesinqumot. 15 Ilanga lenyanga kuzakuba mnyamau, lezinkanyezi zigodle ukukhanya kwazov. 16 INkosi izabhonga-ke iseZiyoniw, ikhuphex ilizwi layo iseJerusalemay, kunyikinyeke amazulu lomhlabaz. Kodwa iNkosi ibe yisiphephelo sabantu bayo, lamandla abantwana bakoIsrayelia.
