1. Musa ukonwaba, Sirayeli;ewe, sukuvuya njengezinye izizwe.Kaloku wena umphambile uThixo wakho;wena usuke wamfulathela.Uthe phithi yimali yokuzithengisakuzo zonke izanda zokubhula.
2. Izanda nezixovulelo aziyi kuvelisa nto,newayini entsha yosuka inqongophale.
3. Awuzukuhlala kulo mhlaba *kaNdikhoyo.Ewe, úza kuphindela eJiputa uEfrayim;uya kutya ukutya okunomlaza eAsiriya.
4. Ewe, uNdikhoyo abayi kumenzela iminikelo yewayini;ayiyi kumanelisa iminikelo yabo.Kubo lo mnikelo wofana nesonka sabazili –abawutyileyo baya kuba nomlaza.Ukutya kwabo kolungela bona kuphela –akuyi kunikelwa kwindlu kaNdikhoyo.
5. Hee, niya kwenza ntoni ke ngemihla yemibhiyozo emisiweyo,ngomhla wetheko likaNdikhoyo?
6. Xa bangasindiyo ekutshatyalalisweniiJiputa yofika yona ibaqokelele,ke yena uMemfisi abangcwabe.Ubutyebi besiliva buya kukhulelwa lukhula,imizi yabo ibhijelwe yimithana enameva.
7. Iyeza imihla yesohlwayo –nditsho imihla yembuyekezo –noSirayeli ke uza kuqonda.Ngenxa yokwanda kobugwenxa benu,nobunzulu bentiyo yenu,*umshumayeli nithi sisityhakala,umntu onefuthe likaMoya uphambene.
8. Umshumayeli ngumlindi kaEfrayim,bantu abo bangaboThixo wam,kodwa ubekelwa izabatha,kuliwe naye endlwini yoThixo wakhe.
