Sase sidlula sisuka kubafowethu, abantwana bakwa-Esawu abahlala eSeyiri, sashiya indlela yase -Araba, ne-Elati, ne-Esiyoni Geberi. Saphenduka sadlula ngendlela yasehlane lakwaMowabi.

Yonke imibango efika kini ivela kubafowenu abahlala emizini yabo phakathi kwegazi negazi, noma phakathi komthetho nomyalo, noma phakathi kwezimiso nezahlulelo , niyakubaxwayisa ngayo ukuba bangabi nacala kuJehova, nehlelwe yintukuthelo nina nabafowenu; yenzani njalo, aniyikuba nacala.

Babusisiwe abahlala endlini yakho; bayakuhlala bebonga wena. Sela

Abakhe khona abayikusho ukuthi : Ngiyagula, abantu abahlala khona bayakuthethelelwa ububi babo.

abahlala emathuneni , balale ezindaweni ezisithekileyo , badle inyama yezingulube, benomhluzi wezinto ezinengekayo ezitsheni zabo,

Nawe Phashuri nabo bonke abahlala endlini yakho niyakuthunjwa ; uyakufika eBabele , kepha uyakufela khona , umbelwe khona , wena nabo bonke abangane bakho oprofethe kubo amanga. Ukukhala kukaJeremiya

Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova ngenkosi ehlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavide nangabo bonke abantu abahlala kulo muzi , abafowenu abangayanga nani ekuthunjweni,

Ngiyakubajezisa abahlala ezweni laseGibithe , njengalokho ngilijezisile iJerusalema, ngenkemba, nangendlala, nangesifo,

uthi kubantu bezwe: Isho kanje iNkosi uJehova ngabakhileyo eJerusalema ezweni lakwa -Israyeli, ithi: Bayakudla isinkwa sabo ngokwesaba , baphuze amanzi abo n gokumangala, ngokuba izwe lalo liyakuchithwa , laphucwe konke ukugcwala kwalo ngenxa yobudlova babo bonke abahlala kulo.

Uyakuthi: Ngiyakwenyukela ezweni elisobala, ngiye kwabazinzileyo abahlala belondekile , bonke abahlala bengenalugange , kungekho kubo imigoqo nezicabha,

Abahlala emizini yakwa -Israyeli bayakuphuma , baphembe umlilo ngezikhali, bazishise, izihlangu namahawu , iminsalo nemicibisholo , nezinduku, nemikhonto, benze umlilo ngakho iminyaka eyisikhombisa.
