1 Isihlabo selizwi likaYehova esisingisele elizweni laseHadraki; yiDamasko indawo yokuphumla kwaso; ngokuba uYehova usingise iliso ebantwini, nasezizweni zonke zakwaSirayeli;
2 kwaneHamati ehlangene nayo ngomda; iTire neTsidon, nakuba zilumkile kakhulu.
3 ITire yazakhela inqaba, yafumba isilivere njengothuli, negolide njengodaka lwezitrato.
4 Yabona, iNkosi iya kuyihlutha, ibubethe ubuhandiba bayo elwandle, yona itshiswe ngumlilo.
5 IAshkelon iya kukubona, yoyike; neGaza iya kukubona, ithuthumele kakhulu; kwane-Ekron, kuba inqolonci yayo iya kudaniswa, adake ukumkani, angabikho eGaza, neAshkelon ingemiwa.
6 Kuya kuhlala imigqakhwe eAshdode, ndinqumle iqhayiya lamaFilisti.
