3 Funani uJehova nina nonke bathobekileyo bomhlabaenisebenzile ukwahlulela kwakhe;funani ukulunga; funani ukuthobeka;mhlawumbe niyakusitshekelwa ngosuku lolaka lukaJehova.
4 Ngokuba iGaza liyakushiywa,i-Ashikeloni libe yincithakalo;bayakulixosha i-Ashidodi emini,i-Ekroni lisishulwe.
5 Wo kwabakhileyo ngasogwini lolwandle,isizwe samaKhereti!Izwi likaJehova liphezu kwakho, Khanani,lizwe lamaFilisiti.“Ngiyakukuchitha ukuze kungabikho ohlala khona.”
6 Ugu lolwandle luyakuba ngamadlelo,lube nemigodi yabelusi nezibaya zezimvu.
7 Ugu luyakuba ngolwensali yendlu yakwaJuda,yaluse kulo;ezindlini zase-Ashikeloni bayakubuthisa kusihlwa,ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo uyakubahambela,abuyise ukuthunjwa kwabo.
