Wachitha amaFilisti kwaze kwaba seGaza nemikhawulo yalo , imibhoshongo yabalindi nemizi ebiyelweyo. IJerusalema lihlaselwa ngoShalimaneseri noSaneheribi

Wakha imibhoshongo ehlane , wemba imigodi eminingi yamanzi , ngokuba wayenezinkomo eziningi ehlanzeni nasethafeni , wayenabalimi nabaphathi bezivini ezintabeni naseKarmeli, ngokuba wayengothanda umhlabathi.

Waziqinisa, wakha lonke ugange olwaludiliziwe , wabeka imibhoshongo phezu kwalo, nolunye ugange ngaphandle , waqinisa iMilo emzini kaDav ide, wenza izikhali nezihlangu eziningi.

Zungezani iSiyoni, nilikake, nibale imibhoshongo yalo.

Bheka, izwe lamaKaledi , leso sizwe esingasekho , esanqunyelwa yi -Asiriya izilwane zasehlane, limisa imibhoshongo, lizenza ize izindlu zaso zamakhosi , lenza laba yincithakalo.

naphezu kwayo yonke imibhoshongo ephakemeyo , naphezu kwazo zonke izingange eziqinisiweyo,

Kuzo zonke izintaba eziphakemeyo nakuwo onke amagquma amade kuyakuba khona imifula nemifudlana yamanzi ngosuku lokuhlaba okukhulu, lapho kuyakuwa imibhoshongo.

Inhliziyo yakho iyakucabanga ngovalo, ithi: Uphi umbhali, uphi olinganisile intela, uphi obalile imibhoshongo na?

Ngiyakwenza imibhoshongo yakho ngamarubi , namasango akho ngekristalo, nayo yonke imikhawulo yakho ngamatshe amahle.

Ziyakuchitha izingange zaseTire , zibhidlize imibhoshongo yalo ; ngiyakukhukhuza umhlabathi walo kulo, ngilenze idwala eliyinyabule.

Uyakubekisa izinqama zakhe zokungqubuza ezingangeni zakho , abhidlize imibhoshongo yakho ngamazembe akhe.

Nginqumile izizwe, imibhoshongo yazo yasezingosini ichithekile; ngichithile izitaladi zazo ukuze kungadluli muntu ; imizi yazo iqothuliwe ukuze kungabikho muntu, kungabikho ohlala kuyo.
