² iye mushumiri wezvinhu zvitsvene, nowetabhenakeri chaiyo, yakamiswa naIshe, isina kumiswa nomunhu.

³ Nokuti mupristi mukuru mumwe nomumwe akagadzwa, kuti abayire Mwari zvipo nezvibayiro; naizvozvo naiye aifanira kuti ave nechaangabayirawo;

⁷ Nokuti dai iya yokutanga yakanga isina chaingapomerwa, yechipiri ingadai isina kutsvakirwa nzvimbo.

⁸ Nokuti anovapa mhosva, achiti, “Tarirai, mazuva anouya, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe, Andichaita nawo sungano itsva neimba yaIsiraeri, uye neimba yaJudha;

⁹ Isina kuita sesungano yandakaita namadzibaba avo, Pazuva randakabata ruoko rwavo, kuti ndivabudise munyika yeIjipiti; Nokuti havana kurambira musungano yangu, Neni ndakasava nehanya navo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe.

¹⁰ Nokuti ndiyo sungano yandichaita nemhuri yaIsiraeri Kana mazuva iwayo apfuura, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe; Ndichaisa mirayiro yangu pakufunga kwavo, Napamwoyo yavo ndichainyora, Ndichava Mwari wavo, Ivo vachava vanhu vangu;

¹¹ Mumwe nomumwe haangazodzidzisi wokwake, Kana mumwe nomumwe hama yake, ichiti, ‘Ziva Ishe;’ Nokuti vose vachandiziva, Kubva kumuduku kusvikira kumukuru pakati pavo.

¹² Nokuti ndichava nengoni nokusarurama kwavo, Nezvivi zvavo handichazozvirangariri.”
