5. ndazenzela amasimi nemiyezo, ndatyala kuyo imithi eneziqhamo zonke;
6. ndazenzela amachibi amanzi okunyela ihlathi elihluma imithi;
7. ndathenga amakhoboka namakhobokazana, ndaba nawo nazalelwe endlwini yam. Kananjalo imfuyo yeenkomo neyempahla emfutshane yaba ninzi kum, ngaphezu kwabo bonke ababengaphambi kwam eYerusalem.
8. Ndaziqwebela nesilivere, negolide, nezinto eziziinqobo zookumkani ngookumkani, nezamazwe ngamazwe; ndazenzela iimvumi neemvumikazi, neziyolo zoonyana babantu, inkosikazi namakhosikazi.
9. Ndaba mkhulu ke, ndanda ngaphezu kwabo bonke ababeseYerusalem ngaphambi kwam; bathi nobulumko bam bandinceda.
10. Andiwabandezanga into yonke ayibizayo amehlo am; andiyivimbanga intliziyo yam namnye umvuyo; ngokuba intliziyo yam yayivuya emigudwini yam yonke, saba sesi ke isabelo sam emigudwini yam yonke.
11. Ndabheka mna ezenzweni zam zonke, ezazenzáyo izandla zam, nasemigudwini yam endaphuka yiyo ukuyenza; ndayibona ukuba yonke loo nto ingamampunge nokusukelana nomoya; akukho lungelo phantsi kwelanga.
12. Ndazijika mna, ndakhangela ubulumko, nobugeza, nobuyatha; ngokuba ngumntu oyini na, lowo uya kuza emva kokumkani? lo ubeselenziwe kade?
13. Ndabona ukuba ubulumko buyabugqitha ubuyatha, njengokuba ukukhanya kubugqitha ubumnyama.
14. Isilumko, amehlo aso asentlokweni yaso; ke sona isinyabi sihamba emnyameni. Ndaqonda ke mna ukuba bonke bephela bahlelwa sihlo sinye.
