9. Mnikeni amaphiko uMowabhi; ngokuba wóphuma ebaleka, imizi yakhe ibe ngamanxuwa, ingemiwa.
10. Makaqalekiswe owenza umsebenzi kaYehova ngokudangala, aqalekiswe onqanda ikrele lakhe egazini.
11. Wonwaba uMowabhi kwasebuncinaneni bakhe, wee tywa phezu kweentsipho zakhe; akakhutshelwanga kwesinye isitya, akahambanga efuduswa; ngenxa yoko isongo sakhe sihleli kuye, nevumba lakhe aliguqukanga.
12. Ngako oko, yabonani, kuza imihla, utsho uYehova, endiya kuthumela abathululi kuye, bamthulule, bazikhuphele izitya zakhe, bayiqhekeze imiphanda yakhe.
13. Úya kudana uMowabhi nguKemoshe, njengoko yadanayo indlu kaSirayeli yiBheteli, inkoloseko yayo.
14. Ningáthini na ukuthi, Singamagorha, singamadoda anobukroti emfazweni?
15. Úyabhuqwa uMowabhi, imizi yakhe iyenyukwa, amadodana akhe anyuliweyo athobela ekusikweni; utsho uKumkani ogama lakhe linguYehova wemikhosi.
16. Kusondele, kuza kufika, ukusindeka kukaMowabhi; ububi bakhe buyangxama kakhulu.
17. Hlunguzelani iintloko ngaye, nonke nina ningeenxa zonke kuye, nonke nina nilaziyo igama lakhe. Yithini, Yoo! Itheni na ukwaphuka intonga yonamandla, uluthi lokuhomba.
18. Yihla eluzukweni, uhlale phantsi kwelinenxano, mmi, ntombi yaseDibhon; ngokuba umbhuqi kaMowabhi unyuke weza kuwe, úzonakalisile iinqaba zakho.
19. Yima ngasendleleni, ubonisele, mmi waseArohere; buza kwindoda esabileyo nakwintokazi esindileyo; yithi, Kukho ntoni na?
20. UMowabhi uhlazekile, ngokuba uqhiphuke umbilini; bhombolozani nikhale; xelani eArnon, nithi, Ubhuqiwe uMowabhi.
21. Umgwebo ulifikele ilizwe lehewu, iHolon neYatsa neMefahati;
22. neDibhon, neNebho, neBhete-dibhelatayim;
23. neKiriyatayim, neBhete-gamuli, neBhetemehon;
24. neKeriyoti, neBhotsera, nemizi yonke yelizwe lakwaMowabhi, ekude kwanekufuphi.
