Umlomo wawo wawuyindilinga, ufana nesinqe, uyikhubhithi nengxenye. Emlonyeni kwakukhona okubaziweyo. Imiphetho yawo iyizinhlangothi ezine, zingeyiyo indilinga. 32Lawo masondo amane ayephansi kwemiphetho; imiphini yamasondo yayisesinqeni; ukuphakama kwesondo kwakuyikhubhithi nengxenye. 33Amasondo ayenziwe njengesondo lenqola yempi; imiphini yamasondo, amabhande awo, izipokwe zawo, namanamfu awo, kwakubunjiwe konke.
34Kwakukhona izindawo zokuwuthwala emagumbini omane aleso naleso sinqe, izingalo zokuwuthwala zihlangene nesinqe. 35Phezu kwesinqe kwakukhona okuyisiyingelezi, nxazonke; ukuphakama kwakho kwakuyingxenye yengalo, okokuwusekela nemiphetho yakho kuhlangene nakho. 36Kulezo zindawo ezingezokuwuthwala nasemiphethweni kwakuqoshwe amakherubhi, izingonyama, namasundu lapho kwakunendawo khona, kukhona nemigexo yezimbali nxazonke. 37 Wazenza kanjalo zonke izinqe ezilishumi; zonke zabunjwa ngendlela efanayo, zinesilinganiso esifanayo, nesimo esifanayo.
38 Wenza imicengezi yethusi elishumi; umcengezi ngamunye wawulingene namabhathi angama-40; yilowo nalowo mcengezi wawungamakhubhithi amane, naphezu kwezinqe ezilishumi ngazinye, kwakukhona umcengezi owodwa. 39 Wazibeka izinqe eziyisihlanu eceleni ngakwesokunene sendlu, neziyisihlanu eceleni ngakwesokhohlo sendlu; wabeka ulwandle eceleni ngakwesokunene sendlu ngasempumalanga yangaseningizimu.
