¹ Isiprofetho ngoMowabi. Impela ebusuku bunye i-Ari Mowabi linqotshiwe, lichithekile; impela ebusuku bunye iKhiri Mowabi linqotshiwe, lichithekile.

² Bayakhuphukela ethempelini; iDiboni lenyukela ezindaweni eziphakemeyo ukuyokhala; uMowabi uyaklewula eNebo naseMedeba; onke amakhanda ayizimpandlana, zonke izilevu ziphuculiwe.

³ Ezitaladini zabo bayabhinca indwangu yamasaka, nasophahleni lwabo nasezigcawini zabo bayaklewula bonke, bamululeka izinyembezi.

⁴ IHeshiboni liyadazuluka kanye ne-Elehale; izwi labo lizwakala kuze kube naseJahasi; ngalokho amabutho akwaMowabi ayakhamuluka, umphefumulo wakhe uyathuthumela phakathi kwakhe.

⁵ Inhliziyo yami ikhalela uMowabi; ababalekileyo bakhe bayabalekela eSora, nase Egila Shelishiya; yebo, nasegqumeni laseLuhithe bakhuphukela bekhala, nasendleleni eya eHoronayimi, bephakamisa izwi lokudazuluka.

⁷ Ngalokho okuseleyo abakutholileyo, nemfuyo yabo, bakuwelisa uMfula Weminyezane.

⁸ Ngokuba ukukhala kuzungeze imikhawulo yakwaMowabi, nokuklewula kwakhe kuze kube se-Egelayimi, nokububula kwakhe kuze kube seBeri Elimi.

⁹ Ngokuba amanzi aseDimoni agcwele igazi; yebo, ngiyakwehlisela iDimoni nokunye: ingonyama phezu kwabasindileyo bakwaMowabi, insali yezwe.
