1Celani kuThixo* izulu ngesikhathi sentwasahlobo;
2Izithombe zikhuluma inkohliso,
3“Ulaka lwami luyavutha kubelusi,
4Ilitshe lekhoneni lizavela kuJuda,
5Ndawonye bazakuba njengamaqhawe alamandla empini
6Ngizayiqinisa indlu kaJuda,
7Abako-Efrayimi bazakuba njengamaqhawe,
8Ngizabamema
9Lanxa ngibahlakazile phakathi kwezizwe,
10Ngizababuyisa basuke eGibhithe
11Bazadabula phakathi kolwandle lokuhlupheka;
