1. Oko uSirayeli ebemncinane, ndamthanda, ndambiza unyana wam ukuba aphume eYiputa.
2. Bababiza, kwaba kukhona bemkayo ebusweni babo; babingelela kooBhahali,* baqhumisela kwimifanekiso eqingqiweyo.
3. Mna ke ndamfundisa uEfrayim ukuhamba, ndibaphatha ngeengalo zam; àbazanga noko, ukuba ndabaphilisa.
4. Ndabatsala ngezintya zomntu, ngeentsontelo zothando; kubo ndaba njengomnyinyisi wedyokhwe emihlathini yabo, ndathantamisa ukumnika ukudla.
5. Akayi kubuyela ezweni laseYiputa; nguAsiriya ukumkani wakhe; kuba abavumanga ukubuya.
