1Kwathi ngenyanga kaNisani, ngomnyaka wamashumi amabili wenkosi u-Aritahishashita, kwakukhona iwayini phambi kwakhe, ngalithatha iwayini ngalinika inkosi. Manje angibanga lusizi phambi kwakhe ngaphambili.
2Ngakho inkosi yathi kimi: Kungani ubuso bakho budanile, lokhu ungaguli? akulutho ngaphandle kosizi lwenhliziyo. Ngase ngesaba kakhulu,
3Wathi enkosini: “Inkosi mayiphile kuze kube phakade; ubuso bami bungabi buhlungu ngani, lapho umuzi, indawo yamathuna awobaba, uyincithakalo, namasango awo eshiswe ngomlilo, na?
4Inkosi yasisithi kimi: Ucelani? Ngakho ngakhuleka kuNkulunkulu wezulu.
5Ngasengisithi enkosini: Uba inkosi ibona kufanele, njalo uba inceku yakho ithole umusa emehlweni akho, ngithume kwaJuda, emzini wamangcwaba awobaba, ukuze ngiwakhe.
6Inkosi yasisithi kimi (indlovukazi yayihlezi layo): Uhambo lwakho luzakuba ngakanani? futhi uzobuya nini? Ngakho kwaba kuhle enkosini ukungithuma; ngase ngimbeka isikhathi.
7Ngasengisithi enkosini: Uba inkosi ithanda, kabanikelwe ababusi abangaphetsheya kweYufrathe izincwadi zami, ukuze bangisuse ngize ngifike kwaJuda;
8nencwadi eya ku-Asafa, umlindi wehlathi wenkosi, ukuba anginike izinkuni zokwenza imishayo yamasango endlu yenkosi, neyogange lomuzi, neyendlu engiyakungena kuyo ngena. Inkosi yanginika ngokwesandla esihle sikaNkulunkulu wami phezu kwami.
9Ngase ngifika kubabusi ngaphesheya komfula ngabanika izincwadi zenkosi. Inkosi yasithuma kanye lami izinduna zempi labagadi bamabhiza.
10Lapho uSanibhalati umHoroni, noThobiya inceku, umAmoni, bezwa ngakho, badabuka kakhulu ngokuthi kufike umuntu ukuzofuna okuhle kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.
11Ngase ngifika eJerusalema, ngahlala khona izinsuku ezintathu;
12Ngavuka ebusuku, mina namadoda ambalwa kanye nami; angitshelanga muntu lokho uNkulunkulu wami abekubeke enhliziyweni yami ukuba ngikwenzele eJerusalema; futhi kwakungekho silwane kimi ngaphandle kwesilwane engangisigibele.
13Ngaphuma ebusuku ngeSango Lesigodi ngaphambi komgodi kadrako naseSangweni Lomquba, ngabona izingange zaseJerusalema ezazibhidliziwe namasango alo ayeshiswe ngomlilo.
14Khona-ke ngadlulela esangweni lomthombo nasechibini lenkosi, kodwa kwakungekho ndawo yokuba isilwane engangisigibele sidlule.
15Khona-ke ngenyuka emfuleni ebusuku, ngabheka odongeni, ngaphenduka, ngangena ngesango lesigodi, ngaphindela emuva.
16Ababusi babengazi lapho engaya khona nokuthi ngenzani; futhi angikawatsheli amaJuda, nabapristi, noma izikhulu, nababusi, nabanye abenza umsebenzi.
17Ngase ngithi kubo: “Niyakubona usizi esikulo, ukuthi iJerusalema liyincithakalo kanjani namasango alo ashiswa ngomlilo; wozani sakhe ugange lwaseJerusalema, ukuze singabi yisihlamba.
18Ngabatshela ngesandla sikaNkulunkulu wami esasisihle phezu kwami; kanjalo namazwi enkosi eyawakhuluma kimi. Bathi: “Masisuke sakhe.” Ngakho baqinisa izandla zabo kulomsebenzi omuhle.
19Kepha lapho oSanibhalati umHoroni, noThobiya inceku, umAmoni, noGeshemu umArabhi, bezwa lokho, basihleka, basidelela, bathi: “Kuyini lokhu enikwenzayo na?” nizohlubuka enkosini na?
20Ngabaphendula ngathi kubo: “UNkulunkulu wezulu nguyena oyakusiphumelelisa; ngakho-ke thina, zinceku zakhe, siyakusukuma sakhe; kodwa aninasabelo nalungelo nasikhumbuzo eJerusalema.
