3 Ukuziqhenya kwenhliziyo yakhof kukukhohlisile, wena ohlala ezingoxweni zamadwalag, ondawo yakhe yokuhlala iphakemeh, othi enhliziyweni yakhe: Ngubani ozangehlisela emhlabathinii?

4 Loba uphakeme njengokhozijk, njalo loba ubeka isidleke sakho phakathi kwezinkanyezilmn, ngizakwethula khona, itsho iNkosio.

5 Uba amasela efika kuwe, loba abaphangi ebusukup (uqunywe kangakanani!q) bebengayikuntshontsha baze banele yini? Uba abavuni bezithelo zevini bebengafika kuwer, bebengayikutshiya umkhothozo yinis?

6 Yeka ukuhlolwa kwezinto zikaEsawut, ukudingisiswa kokuligugu kwakhe okufihliweyo!

8 Kakuyikuba njalo yiniy ngalolosukuz, itsho iNkosi, ukuthi ngizachitha abahlakaniphileyo eEdoma lokuqedisisaa entabeni kaEsawub.

9 Lamaqhawe akhoc azatshaywa luvalo, Themanide, ukuze ngulowo lalowo aqunywe entabeni kaEsawu ngokubulawaf.

10 Ngenxag yodlakela lwakho umeleneh lomfowenu uJakobei inhloni zizakusibekelaj, uqunywe kuze kube phakadek.

11 Ngosuku owema ngalo ngaphambili, ngosuku abezizweni abathumba ngalo amabutho akhe, abezizwe abangena emasangweni akhel, abenza inkatho yokuphosa ngeJerusalemam, lawe wawunjengomunye wabo.

12 Kodwa wawungafanelanga ukukhangelan ngosuku lomfowenuo ngosuku lwenhlupheko yakhep; njalo wawungafanelanga uthokoze ngabantwana bakoJuda ngosuku lokuchitheka kwaboq; njalo wawungafanelanga ukhulise umlomo wakho ngosuku lokuhlupheka.
