27  Ngelangelo uJehova ngesabulakhe enelunya, ekulu neqinileko,+Uzokujezisa uLeviyathani,* inyoka etjhelelako,ULeviyathani inyoka ezisongasongako,Uzokubulala isilwana esikhulu esisabekako esiselwandle.   Ngelangelo mbhineleni* nithi: “Isimu yamadiribe yewayini elinamagwebu!+   Mina Jehova ngiyamvikela.+ Ngaso soke isikhathi ngiyamthelelela.+ Ngiyamvikela ubusuku nemini,Bona kungabi nomuntu omlimazako.+   Angikamsilingekeli.+ Ngubani ozokuqalana nami ngemithi yameva nekhula epini? Ngizobagadanga begodu ngizobatjhisa boke.   Nakungasinjalo, akakakarele esiphephelweni sami. Akenze ukuthula nami;Ukuthula akakwenze nami.”   Emalangeni azako uJakopo uzokuba nomrabhu,U-Israyeli uzokuhluma, abe namathuthumbo,+Begodu bazokuzalisa inarha ngomkhiqizo.+   Inga-kghani kufuze abethwe ngesijeziso saloyo ombethako? Namkha kufuze abulawe ngokurhayilwa njengababuleweko bakhe?   Uzokuphikisana naye ngokulila okuthusako nawumqothako. Uzomqotha ngelaka lakhe elivuthako ngelanga lomoya wepumalanga.+   Nje-ke umtjhapho kaJakopo uzokulitjalelwa ngendlela le,+Begodu lesi kuzokubasithelo esipheleleko lokha isono sakhe nasisuswako: Uzokwenza woke amatje we-aldareniAfane namatje wetjhogo agayiweko,Begodu azikho iingodo ezicwengileko* namkha ama-aldara wepepho azokusala.+ 10  Ngombana idorobho elivikelekileko lizokulahlwa;Amadlelo azokutjhiywa, alahlwe njengommango.+ Ikonyana lizokudla bese lilale laphoLizokurhiribidela neempande zalo.+ 11  Lokha amahlumelalo nakomako,Umfazi uzokuza bese awaphule,Abase ngawo umlilo. Ngombana isitjhabesi asizwisisi.+ Kungebangelo uMenzaso angekhe abe nesirhawu kiso,Naloyo osenzileko angekhe abe nomusa kiso.+ 12  Ngelangelo uJehova uzokubuthelela iinthelo kusukela emlanjaneni ogelezako woMlambo* ukuya emRhobeni* weGibhide+ begodu nina bantu bakwa-Israyeli nizokubuthelelwa omunye ngemva komunye.+ 13  Ngelangelo kuzokuvuthelwa iphondo elikhulu+ begodu labo abatjhabalalako enarheni ye-Asiriya+ nalabo abaphadlhaleleko enarheni yeGibhide,+ bazokuza bese bakhothame kuJehova entabeni ecwengileko yeJerusalema.+
