4 Yilokhu uJehova akushoyo,

‘Ngenxa yokuvukela kaningi kukaJuda, + ngeke ngikushintshe engikunqumile

Ngoba uwenqabile umthetho* kaJehova

Futhi akazigcinanga iziqondiso zakhe; +

Kodwa amanga afanayo ayelandelwa okhokho bakhe, amenze waduka. +

 5 Ngakho ngiyothumela umlilo kwaJuda,

Uyoshwabadela imibhoshongo eqinile yaseJerusalema.’ +
