1Isiphrofethi:
2laphezu kweHamathi layo, engcelelane layo,
3IThire isizakhele inqaba;
4Kodwa uThixo uzayemuka inotho yayo
5I-Ashikheloni izakubona lokho yesabe;
6Abezizwe bazayithatha i-Ashidodi bahlale kuyo,
7Ngizathatha igazi emilonyeni yabo,
8Kodwa ngizayivikela indlu yami
9Thokoza kakhulu, wena Ndodakazi yaseZiyoni!
10Ngizazisusa izinqola zempi ko-Efrayimi
11Wena pho, ngenxa yegazi lesivumelwano lawe,
12Buyelani enqabeni yenu, lina zibotshwa ezilethemba;
13Ngizamgoba uJuda njengalokhu ngigoba idandili lami
14Kulapho-ke uThixo* azaqhamuka ngaphezu kwabo;
15njalo uThixo* uSomandla uzabavikela.
16UThixo* uNkulunkulu wabo uzabasindisa ngalelolanga
