¹Kwathi lezo zinto sezenzekile, izikhulu zeza kimi, zathi: “Abantu bakwa-Israyeli nabapristi namaLevi abazahlukanisanga nabantu bamazwe ngokwenza izinengiso zabo kumaKhanani namaHeti, namaPherizi, namaJebusi, nama-Amoni, namaMowabi, namaGibhithe, nama-Amori.

²Bazithathela wona namadodakazi abo amanye amadodakazi abo, ukuze inzalo engcwele yahlangana nabantu balawo mazwe; yebo, isandla sezikhulu nezikhulu sasiyinhloko kulesi siphambeko.

³Lapho ngizwa lokho, ngaklebhula ingubo yami nejazi lami, ngahluthula izinwele zekhanda lami nesilevu sami, ngahlala phansi ngimangele.

⁴Base bebuthana kimi bonke abathuthumela ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ngenxa yesiphambeko somhambi; ngahlala ngimangele kwaze kwaba ngumnikelo wakusihlwa.

⁵Futhi ngasukuma ngokumelene nomhlatshelo wakusihlwa ekucindezelekeni kwami; ngasengiklebhula ingubo yami nejazi lami, ngaguqa ngamadolo, ngelulela izandla zami kuJehova uNkulunkulu wami,

⁶ngathi: “O Nkulunkulu wami, nginamahloni, nginamahloni ukuphakamisa ubuso bami kuwe, Nkulunkulu wami, ngokuba iziphambeko zethu zandile phezu kwamakhanda ethu, neziphambeko zethu zikhule zaze zafika ezulwini.

⁷Kusukela ezinsukwini zawobaba sisonile kakhulu kuze kube namuhla; futhi ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu, thina, amakhosi ethu nabapristi bethu, sanikelwa esandleni samakhosi amazwe enkembeni, ekuthunjweni nasekuphangweni nasekujabheni ubuso, njengoba kunjalo namuhla.

⁸Manje isihawu sikaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu senziwe ngokwesikhashana nje ukusishiyela insali ephunyukileyo, nokusinika isikhonkwane endlini yakhe engcwele, ukuze uNkulunkulu wethu akhanyisele amehlo ethu, asinike ukuvuselela endaweni yakhe engcwele ubugqila bethu.

⁹Ngoba sasiyizigqili; nokho uNkulunkulu wethu akasishiyanga ebugqilini bethu, kepha wasenzela umusa emehlweni amakhosi asePheresiya ukuba asinike ukuvuselela, sakhe indlu kaNkulunkulu wethu, silungise amanxiwa ayo, sinikeze ugange kwaJuda, eJerusalema.

¹⁰Manje, O Nkulunkulu wethu, siyakuthini ngemva kwalokhu? ngoba siyishiyile imiyalo yakho.

¹¹Owayala ngezinceku zakho abaprofethi ngokuthi: ‘Izwe eningena kulo ukulidla liyizwe elingcolile nokungcola kwabantu bamazwe nezinengiso zabo, eligcwaliswe komunye umkhawulo komunye. Ngokungcola kwabo.

¹²Manje ninganiki amadodana abo amadodakazi enu, ningawathatheli amadodana enu amadodakazi abo, ningafuni ukuthula kwawo nemfuyo yawo kuze kube phakade; izingane kuze kube phakade.

¹³Futhi ngemva kwakho konke okusehlele ngenxa yezenzo zethu ezimbi nangenxa yeziphambeko zethu ezinkulu, njengoba wena, Nkulunkulu wethu, wasijezisa kancane kunalokho okufanele ukona kwethu, futhi wasinika insindiso enjengale;

¹⁴Sibuye sephule imiyalo yakho, sizihlanganise nabantu balezi zinengiso na? ubungeke yini usithukuthelele uze usiqede, kungabikho nsali nophunyukayo na?

¹⁵Jehova Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ulungile, ngokuba sisaphunyukile njenganamuhla; bheka, siphambi kwakho eziphambekweni zethu, ngokuba ngalokho asinakuma phambi kwakho.
