9 Ndiza kubenza into eyoyikekayo nentlekele kuzo zonke izizwe zomhlaba,+ babe yinto yokuhlekisa nento ekuzekeliswa ngayo, babe yinto yokugezelwa nento eqalekisiweyo+ kuzo zonke iindawo endibasasazela kuzo.+

18 “Kuba uthi uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ‘Kanye njengokuba umsindo nengqumbo yam ziye zagalelwa phezu kwabemi baseYerusalem,+ ingqumbo yam iza kugalelwa phezu kwenu ukuba niye eYiputa, yaye niza kuba sisithuko, into eyoyikekayo, into eqalekisiweyo nento yokuhlekisa,+ ibe soze niphinde niyibone le ndawo.’

20 Kutheni usilibala ngonaphakade uze usilahle ixesha elide?+

16 Owu Yehova, ngokwazo zonke izenzo zakho zobulungisa,+ ndicela ungawukhupheli kwisixeko sakho iYerusalem, intaba yakho engcwele, umsindo wakho nobushushu bakho. Kuba ngenxa yeziphoso zethu nezookhokho bethu, iYerusalem nabantu bakho bayinto yokuhlekisa kubo bonke abo bayijikelezileyo.+
