Isililo samaSirayeli ekuthinjweni

1 Ngasemilanjeni yaseBhabheli sahlala phantsi sagixa sakucinga *ngeZiyon.

2 Iikatala zethu sazixhoma emingcunubeni kwalapho.

3 Kaloku abo babesithimbile suka bathi:

“Khanisonwabise ngengoma;

khanihlabele enye kwezaseZiyon.”

4 Besingathini kambe ukucula *ezikaNdikhoyo kwelasemzini!

5 Ukuba ndingakulibala, Jerusalem, sanga singashwabana isandla sam sokunene.

6 Malunamathele ezinkalakahleni ulwimi lwam, ukuba ndinokukulibala,

xa ndinokusuka ndingayibaluli iJerusalem njengeyona ntshinga yovuyo lwam.

7 Awu, Ndikhoyo, yikhumbule into eyênziwa ngamaEdom, mhla yahlaselwa iJerusalem.

Kaloku agcoloda athi: “Yidilizeni niyisiphule neengcambu.”

8 Athi ke wena, Bhabheli, sisulundini sentshabalalo!

Hayi inyhweba yalowo ukubuyekezayo ngazo zonke izinto osenze zona.

9 Unoyolo ozithathayo iintsana zakho azintlekeze emaweni.
