² Umva wa juru we, tega amatwi nawe wa si we, kuko Uwiteka avuga ati “Nonkeje abana ndabarera ariko barangomera.

³ Inka imenya nyirayo, n'indogobe imenyaurugorwa shebuja. Abisirayeli bo ntibabizi,ubwoko bwanjye ntibubyitaho.”

⁴ Dore wa bwoko bukoraibyaha we, abantu buzuwemono gukiranirwa,urubyaro rw'inkozi z'ibibi, abana bonona baretse Uwiteka, basuzuguyeUwera wa Isirayeli baramuhararuka, basubirainyuma.

⁷ Igihugu cyanyu ni amatongo, imiduguduyanyu yarahiye, abanyamahanga barabaryana imyaka yanyu. Igihugu kibaye amatongo nk'igishenywe n'abanyamahanga koko.

⁸ Umukobwa w'i Siyoni asigaye ameze nk'ingando yo mu nzabibu, ameze nk'indaro yo mu murimaw'imyungu, ameze nk'umuduguduugoswe n'ingabo.

⁹ Iyaba Uwiteka Nyiringabo atadushigarije igice gito cyane cy'abantu barokotse, tuba twarabaye nk'i Sodomu tukamera nk'i Gomora.

¹⁰ Nimwumve ijambo ry'Uwiteka, mwa batware b'i Sodomu mwe, mutegeamatwi mwumve amategeko y'Imana yacu, mwa bantu b'i Gomora.

¹¹ “Ibitambo byanyu bitagira ingano muntambira bimaze iki?”Ni ko Uwiteka abaza. “Mpaze ibitambo by'amasekurumey'intama byoswa n'urugimbu rw'amatungo abyibushye, kandi sinishimira amaraso y'inka n'ay'abana b'intama cyangwa ay'amasekurumey'ihene.

¹⁷ Mwige gukoraneza, mushake imanza zitabera, murenganure abarengana, mucireimpfubyiurubanza, muburanire abapfakazi.

¹⁸ “Nimuze tujye inama”, ni ko Uwiteka avuga, “Naho ibyaha byanyu byatukurank'umuhemba birahindukaumweru bise na shelegi, naho byatukuratukutukubirahinduka nk'ubwoya bw'intama bwera.

¹⁹ Nimwemera mukumvira muzarya ibyiza byo mu gihugu.

²⁰ Ariko nimwanga mukagoma inkota izabarya”, kuko akanwa k'Uwiteka ari ko kabivuze.

²¹ Dore ye,umurwa wiringirwagauhindutse maraya, ahuzuragaimanza zitabera hakababwamo no gukiranuka, none hasigaye ari ah'abicanyi.

²² Ifeza zawe zihindutse inkamba, vino zawe zibayeumufungure.

²³ Abatware bawe ni abagome n'incuti z'abajura,umuntu wese muri bo akunda kugurirwa kandi akurikira impongano, ntibacira impfubyi imanza kandi imanza z'abapfakazi ntizibageraho.

²⁴ Ni cyo gituma Uwiteka Nyiringabo, Umunyambaraga wa Isirayeli avuga ati “Yewe, nziruhutsa ntuye abanzi banjye kandi n'ababisha banjye nzabahōra.

²⁵ Nzagushyirahoukubokongukuremorwose inkamba zawe, nkumaremo icyuma cy'ibati.

²⁷ I Siyoni hazacungurwa n'imanza zitabera, kandi abahindutse bo muri yo bazakizwa no gukiranuka.

²⁸ Ariko abacumuran'abanyabyaha bazarimburanwa, n'abimūra Uwiteka bazatsembwa.

²⁹ Muzakorwa n'isoni z'imirinzi mwifuje, kandi muzamwazwa n'amasambu mwatoranije,

⁴ Azacira amahanga imanza, azahana amoko menshi. Inkota zabo bazazicuramoamasuka n'amacumu bazayacuramoimpabuzo, nta shyanga rizabangurirairindi shyanga inkota, kandi ntabwo bazongera kwiga kurwana.

⁵ Mwa nzu ya Yakobo mwe, nimuze tugendere mu mucyo w'Uwiteka.

⁶ Ubwoko bwawe ari bwo nzu ya Yakobo, waburekeshejwe n'uko buzuyeimigenzo ivuye iburasirazuba, bakaraguza nk'Abafilisitiya kandi bakifatanya n'abanyamahanga.

¹⁷ Nuko agasuzugurok'abantu kazashyirwa hasi n'ubwibone bw'abantu buzacishwa bugufi, uwo munsi Uwiteka ni weuzogezwa wenyine.

¹⁸ Ibigirwamana bizashiraho rwose.

¹⁹ Abantu bazinjira mu buvumobwo mu bitare no mu nzobo zo mu butaka, bahunge igitinyiro cy'Uwiteka n'ubwiza bw'icyubahiro cye, ubwo azahagurukanaimbaraga aje guhindisha isiumushyitsi.

²⁰ Uwo munsi abantu bazajugunya ibishushanyo byabo bisengwa by'ifeza n'iby'izahabu, byacuriwegusengwa, babijugunyire imbeba n'ubucurama,

²¹ bajye kwihisha mu buvumobwo mu bitare no mu bihanamanga, bahunge igitinyiro cy'Uwiteka n'ubwiza bw'icyubahiro cye, ubwo azahagurukanaimbaraga aje guteraisiumushyitsi.

⁴ Nzabaha abana ho abatware, abana bato ni bo bazabategeka.

⁵ Abantu bazarenganywa,umuntu wese azarenganya mugenzi we, undi azarenganyaumuturanyi we,umwana azasuzuguraabakuru,umutindi azasuzuguraabanyacyubahiro.

⁶ Icyo giheumuntu azafata mwene se wo mu rugo rwa se amubwire ati “Ubwo ari woweufiteimyambaro abe ari wowe ubaumutware, n'iri tongo abe ari woweuritegeka.”

⁷ Uwo munsi azahakana avuge cyane ati “Simbasha kubaberaumukizakuko nta byokurya mfite mu rugo rwanjye, nta n'imyambaro, ndanze ko mungiraumutware w'abantu.”

⁸ I Yerusalemu hararimbutse n'i Buyudaharaguye kuko bagomera Uwiteka mu byo bavuga no mu byo bakora, bakarakaza mu maso he hafite icyubahiro.

⁹ Ishusho yo mu maso habo ni yo muhamya wo kubashinja, berura ibyaha byabo nk'ab'i Sodomu, ntibabihisha. Ubugingo bwabo buzabona ishyano, kuko bihamagariye ibyago.

¹⁰ Muvugeko abakiranutsi bazagubwa neza, kuko bazatungwan'imirimo y'amaboko yabo.

¹¹ Arikoumunyabyaha abonye ishyano! Azagubwa nabi kuko azahabwa ibihembo by'ibyo yakoze.

¹² Ubwoko bwanjye burarenganywa n'abana kandi burategekwa n'abagore. Nyamuna bwoko bwanjye, abakuyobora barakuyobya bakarimbura inziraunyuramo.

¹³ Uwiteka ahagurukijwe no kuburanaagacira amahanga imanza.

¹⁴ Uwiteka azacira imanza abakuru b'ubwoko bwe n'abatware babwo. “Kuko ari mwebwe mwariyeuruzabibu mukarumaraho, iminyago y'abakene iri mu ngo zanyu.

¹⁵ Ni iki gituma mumenaguraubwoko bwanjye mugahera abakene?”Ni ko Uwiteka Umwami Nyiringabo abaza.

¹⁶ Kandi Uwiteka aravuga ati “Abakobwa b'i Siyoni bafiteubwibone kandi bagenda bashinze amajosi, barebana amaso y'ubuhehesi, bagenda bakimbagira bacinya inzogera.

¹⁷ Ni cyo kizatuma Uwiteka ateza abakobwa b'i Siyoni ibikoko mu bitwariro, agatwikururaibiteye isoni byabo.”

²⁴ Maze mu cyimbo cy'ibihumuraneza hazabaumunuko, mu cyimbo cy'umweko hazabaumugozi, ahabagaumusatsiutsibye hazabauruhara. Mu cyimbo cyo kwambara ikoti ryiza bazakenyera ibigunira, ahariubwiza hazaba inkovu.

²⁵ Ingabo zawe zizicwa n'inkota, intwari zawe zizagwa mu ntambara.

²⁶ Amarembo y'i Siyoni azarira aboroge, hazicara ku butakahasigayeubusa.

¹ Uwo munsi abagore barindwi bazajya ku mugaboumwe bamubwire bati “Tuzitungirwa n'ibyokurya byacu kandi tuzajya twiyambikaubwacu, arikouduhekwitirirwa izina ryaweudukizeurubwa rw'abantu.”

² Uwo munsi ishami ry'Uwiteka rizaba ryiza rifite icyubahiro. Abisirayeli bazarokoka, imyaka yo mu gihugu izabaryohera cyane ibabere myiza.

³ Mazeuzasigara i Siyoni n'i Yerusalemu wese, yanditswe mu bazima b'i Yerusalemu, azitweuwera.

⁴ Ubwo ngubwo Uwiteka azaba yuhagiye imyanda y'abakobwa b'i Siyoni ayimazeho, kandi azaba amaze amaraso muri Yerusalemu, ayamarishijemoumwukaukiranuka n'umwuka wotsa.

⁵ Kandi hejuru y'ubuturobwose bwo ku musoziwa Siyoni no ku materaniro yaho, Uwiteka azaharemeraho igicu n'umwotsi ku manywa n'umurirowakaukamurikanijoro. Maze hejuru y'ibyubahwa byose hazabeho igitwikirizo.

⁸ Bazabona ishyano abagerekeranya ingo ku zindi, bakikubiraimirima kugezaubwo hatagira ahasigara, mugatura mu gihugu mwenyine.

⁹ Uwiteka Nyiringabo yampishuriyeatya ati “Ingo nyinshi, ndetse n'ingo nini nziza zizaba imisaka, he kugirauzibamo.

¹⁰ Imirima y'inzabibu cumi izavamo incuro imwe y'intebo, kandi ibibibiro cumi by'imbuto z'amasaka bizavamo incuro imwe y'igiseke.”

²⁰ Bazabona ishyano abita ikibi icyiza n'icyiza bakacyita ikibi. Umwijima bawushyira mu cyimbo cy'umucyo, n'umucyo bakawushyira mu cyimbo cy'umwijima, ibisharira babishyira mu cyimbo cy'ibiryohereye, n'ibiryohereye bakabishyira mu cyimbo cy'ibisharira.
