Ndiani wawakasimudzira inzwi rako ukasimudzawo meso ako nokuzvikudza? Kune Mutsvene waIsraeri! ²⁴Navaranda vako wakashora Baba Changamire, uye wakati, ‘Nengoro dzangu zhinji ndakakwira kumusoro-soro kwamakomo, kumigumo yokure yeRebhanoni. Ndakatema misidhari yayo mirefurefu, misipuresi yayo yakanakisisa; ndakasvika pakakwirira kwayo kwokure, sango rayo rakapfumba. ²⁵Ndakachera matsime ndikanwa mvura; netsoka yangu ndakapwisa hova dzose dzeIjipiti.’ ²⁶Hauna kunzwa here? Kare ndakazviita; kubva pamazuva ekare ndakazvironga. Zvino ndaita kuti zviitike, kuti ushandure maguta akavakirirwa ave mirwi yamatongo. ²⁷Vagari vawo, vatorerwa simba ravo, vakavhunduka vakanyadziswa; vakanga vakaita samiriwo yomusango, souswa hunyoro, souswa huri pamusoro pedzimba, hwakasvava husati hwakura. ²⁸Asi ndinoziva paunogara pasi, paunobuda, nepaunopinda, nepaunonditsamwira. ²⁹Nokuti wandishatirira, uye kuzvikudza kwako kwasvika munzeve dzangu, ndichaisa chiredzo changu mumhino dzako namatomu angu mumuromo mako, uye ndichakudzosera shure nenzira yawakauya nayo.

³⁰“Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chako: gore rino uchadya zvinomera zvoga, gore rechipiri zvinobva kuzvimera izvozvo, gore rechitatu dyara ugokohwa, sima minda yemizambiringa ugodya michero yayo. ³¹Uye vakasara veimba yaJudha vachadzikazve midzi pasi vagobereka michero kumusoro. ³²Nokuti muJerusarema muchabuda vakasara, nomuGomo reZioni boka ravakapunyuka. Kushingaira kwaBaba vehondo dzokudenga kuchaita izvi.

³³Naizvozvo Baba vedu vanoti pamusoro pamambo weAsiria: Haangapindi muguta rino kana kupfura museve pano, kana kurinanga nenhoo, kana kurivakira dundundu rokurikomba. ³⁴Achadzoka nenzira yaakauya nayo; haangapindi muguta rino, ndizvo zvinotaura Baba vedu. ³⁵Nokuti ndichadzivirira guta rino kuti ndiriponese, nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwaDhavhidhi muranda wangu.”
