17 Ngizombona, kodwa hhayi manje;

Ngizombuka, kodwa hhayi maduze.

Kuyophuma inkanyezi + kuJakobe,

Kuyovela intonga + ku-Israyeli. +

Nakanjani uyoqhekeza isiphongo sikaMowabi *+

Nogebhezi lwawo wonke amadodana okuxokozela.

 2 Ngakho ngiyothumela umlilo kwaMowabi,

Uyoshwabadela imibhoshongo eqinile yaseKheriyoti; +

UMowabi uyofa ngesikhathi kunokuxokozela,

Ngesiqubulo sempi, ngomsindo wophondo. +
