1 Awu! Lisibekele kwintombienguZiyon ngenxa yomsindo weNkosi.Isiphose phantsi isihombo sikaSirayeli,sasuka ezulwini, sakhahleleka emhlabeni;ayasikhumbula isihlalo seenyawo zayongomhla womsindo wayo.
2 INkosi iziginye zonke izindlu zikaYakobi ingenanceba;emsindweni wayo izidilizile iinqaba zentombi enguJuda.Ubukumkani neziphathamandla ubukhahlele emhlabeni wabuhlazisa.
3 Ekuvutheni komsindo wayo imnqumle iimpondo uSirayeli.Isirhoxisile isandla sayo sokunene kwakuvela utshaba.Injengomlilo ovuthayo phakathi kwaYakobi,otshisa konke phambi kwawo.
4 Isityede okotshaba isaphetha sayo;isandla sayo sokunene sesilungele ukutola oku kombandezeli.Izibulele zonke iinzwana neenzwakazi;umsindo wayo iwuthulule okomlilo phezu kwentente yentombi enguZiyon.
5 INkosi isuke yafana notshaba;imginyile uSirayeli.Iwabimbilizile onke amabhotwe akhe,yazidiliza iinqaba zakhe.Ikuphinda-phindile ukuzila nokulila kwintombi enguJuda.
6 Iyichitha-chithile indlu yayo ngokungathi liphempe esitiyeni,yaza yayitshabalalisa indawo yayo yokuhlangana.*UNdikhoyo wenza ukuba iZiyon iyilibale imisithongokunjalo *neMihla yokuPhumla;ngenxa yokuvutha komsindo wakhe umbukule ukumkani kwanombingeleli.
7 *UNdikhoyo ulilahlile iqonga lakhe lamadini,wasicekisa isibingelelo sakhe esisodwa.Iindonga ezikhusela amabhotwe akhe uzinikezele esandleni seentshaba;ziyaxokozela endlwini kaNdikhoyo njengangomhla womsitho.
