5 Chifukwa chiyani nanga anthu awa akupitirirabe kuchimwa, osabwerera? Chifukwa chiyani Yerusalemu akubwerera mʼmbuyo? Iwo akangamira chinyengo; akukana kubwerera.
6 Ine ndinatchera khutu kumvetsera koma iwo sanayankhulepo zoona. Palibe woyipa amene analapapo zoyipa zake, nʼkumati, ‘Ine ndachita chiyani?’ Aliyense akutsatira njira yake ngati kavalo wothamangira nkhondo.
7 Mbalame yotchedwa kakowa ija imadziwa nthawi yake mlengalenga. Koma nkhunda, namzeze ndi chingalu zimadziwa nthawi yonyamukira ulendo, koma anthu anga sadziwa malamulo a Yehova.

9 Anthu anzeru achita manyazi; athedwa nzeru ndipo agwidwa. Iwo anakana mawu a Yehova. Nanga tsono nzeru zawo ziwapinduliranji?
10 Nʼchifukwa chake akazi awo ndidzawapereka kwa amuna ena ndipo minda yawo ndidzayipereka kwa amene adzawagonjetse. Kuyambira wamngʼono mpaka wamkulu, onse ali ndi khalidwe lofuna kupeza chuma mwakuba. Aneneri pamodzi ndi ansembe omwe, onse amachita zachinyengo.
