13 ukuba umlibale uYehova uMenzi wakho, uManeki wezulu, uMseki wehlabathi; ukuba uhlale unkwantya imini yonke bubushushu bombandezeli, ngokokuba exunela ukonakalisa; buphi na ke ubushushu bombandezeli?

15 Kuba ndinguYehova uThixo wakho, uMlatyuzisi wolwandle, agqume amaza alo, ogama lakhe linguYehova wemikhosi.
16 Ndiwabekile amazwi am emlonyeni wakho, ndakugubungela ngesithunzi sesandla sam, ukuba ndityale izulu, ukuba ndiseke ihlabathi, ukuba ndithi kwiZiyon, Ningabantu bam.
17 Zivuse, zivuse, suk' ume, Yerusalem, wena uyiseleyo esandleni sikaYehova indebe yobushushu bakhe; uyiselé wayifinca indebe enombilini ehexisayo.
18 Bekungekho namnye uyithundezayo iYerusalem, phakathi koonyana bonke eyabazalayo; bekungekho namnye uyibambe ngesandla, phakathi koonyana bonke eyabakhulisayo.
