12 Saphendula ke isithunywa sikaYehova, sathi, Yehova wemikhosi, koba nini na ungàsikwa yimfesane wena, ngenxa yeYerusalem nemizi yakwaYuda, owayibhavumelayo le minyaka imashumi asixhenxe?
13 UYehova wasiphendula isithunywa esibe sithetha nam, ngamazwi alungileyo, ngamazwi athuthuzelayo.
14 Sathi kum isithunywa esibe sithetha nam, Memeza uthi, Utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Ndinekhwele, ikhwele elikhulu, ngeYerusalem nangeZiyon.
15 Ndinoburhalarhume obukhulu kuzo iintlanga ezihleli ngokonwaba; ngokokuba bendinoburhalarhume mna umzuzwana, ke zona zongezelelela ububi.
16 Ngako oko, utsho uYehova ukuthi, Ndiyibuyele iYerusalem ngemfesane; indlu yam iya kwakhelwa khona, utsho uYehova wemikhosi; ulutya lokulinganisa luya kolulwa phezu kweYerusalem.
17 Buya umemeze, uthi, Utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Imizi yam isaya kuphalala okulungileyo; uYehova usaya kuyithuthuzela iZiyon, ayinyule iYerusalem.
18 Ndaphakamisa amehlo am, ndakhangela, nanzo iimpondo, ziné.
