1“Misi yeneyo,

‘Yahavee u a haṱula.’
Henefho ndi ḓo vha haṱula

vha Israele, vhe nda ri ndi vhanga vhukuma,

musidzana vha renga ngae waini ya u nwa.
4“Zwino inwi vha Tiro na Sidoni
na inwi vha madzingu oṱhe a Filista,

Kani ni khou nndifhedza zwe nda ni rwa?
Arali ni tshi khou nndifhedza,

5No dzhia siliva yanga na musuku wanga,
na hwala madzanga anga
na a isa thembeleni dzaṋu.
6Vhathu vha Juda na Jerusalema no vha rengisela Magiriki,

7Vhonani, ndi ḓo vha bvisa fhethu he na vha rengisa hone,
zwe na ita ni ḓo lifha nga ṱhoho dzaṋu.
8Vhana vhaṋu vha vhatukana na vha vhasidzana

vhone vha ḓo vha rengisela Vhasaba,
lushaka lwa kule.
Ho amba Nṋe Yahavee.”
9Ḓivhadzani tshakha dzoṱhe ni ri,
“Ḓilugiseleni u bva pfumo!
Rambani tshira!
Kuvhanganyani vhadziammbi vhaṋu

10Kanḓani ṱhodzi dza malembe aṋu ni ite mapanga,

Muhoṱa nga a ri, ‘Ndi na nungo!’
11Inwi dzitshakha ṱavhanyani ni ḓe ni tshi bva masia oṱhe,

Yawee Muṋe washu,

12“Dzitshakha nga dzi rithiwe,
nga dzi ye Govhani ḽa Khaṱhulo henefho ndi ḓo dzula
nda haṱula tshakha dzi bvaho masia oṱhe.
13“Dzungudzani segere,

Vhuvhi havho ho andesa,
vha kaṋeni unga mavhele,
vha pwaṱuleni unga nḓirivhe
dzi tshi pwaṱulwa bonḓeloni ḽo ḓalaho,
i ḓale waini i tou fhalala!”
Vhugala ha Jerusalema ha misi i ḓaho
14Govhani ḽa Khaṱhulo hu na magogo na magogo!
Ḓuvha ḽa Muṋe washu ḽi tsini henefho Govhani ḽa Tsengo.
15Ḓuvha na ṅwedzi zwi ḓo swifhala,

16Muṋe washu u ḓo vhomba e Tsioni,

ḽifhasi na lutombo zwi ḓo tetemela.
Hone Muṋe washu u ḓo vha dzhavhelo ḽa vhathu vhawe,
u ḓo vha thikho ya vhathu vhawe vha Israele.
17“Ndi hone ni tshi ḓo zwi ḓivha
uri ndi Nṋe Yahavee Mudzimu waṋu,
ndi dzula Tsioni thavhani yanga khethwa.
Jerusalema u ḓo vha mukhethwa,
a u tsha ḓo dovha wa diwa nga vhatsinda.”
18Musi wonoyo dzithavha dzi ḓo rotha waini ya tuvhu,
mivhundu i ḓo ela mukhaha,
milambwana yoṱhe ya Juda i ḓo ela maḓi.
Hu ḓo phulea tshisima tsha gubunyea
tshi tshi bva nḓuni ya Muṋe washu,
tsha sheledza Govhani ḽa Miunga.
19Hone Egipita ḽi ḓo sala ḽi soga,
Edomo ḽi ḓo sala ḽi phanga,
nge vha huvhadza vhathu vha Juda,
mashangoni a vhenevho vho shulula malofha
a vha si na mulandu.
20Hone Juda ḽi ḓo dzulwa lini na lini,
Jerusalema ha dzulwa ha fhira mirafho na mirafho.
21Mulandu wavho wa u shulula malofha
ndi ḓo vha hangwela naa?
A thi nga hangweli, ngoho ndi ḓo lifhedza,
Nṋe muṋe Yahavee ndi no dzula Tsioni.
