8 Zvino shoko raJehovha rakaramba richiuya kwandiri ava mangwanani, richiti:

10 Iti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: “Kune chirevo ichi chine chokuita nejinda+ pamusoro peJerusarema neimba yose yaIsraeri iri pakati pavo.”’
11 “Iti, ‘Ndiri chiratidzo+ chenyu. Ivo vachaitirwa sezvandakaita. Vachatapwa, vachaenda kwavanenge vatapwa.+
12 Jinda riri pakati pavo richatakura mukwende nepapfudzi kwasviba, robuda; vachaboora pamadziro kuti vaubudise naipapo.+ Richafukidza chiso charo kuti rirege kuona nyika neziso raro.’
13 Ndichatambanudza mambure angu okuvhimisa pamusoro paro, richabatwa nemambure angu okuvhimisa;+ uye ndichaenda naro kuBhabhironi, kunyika yevaKadheya,+ asi harizoioni; uye iro richafira ikoko.+

15 Vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha pandichavaparadzira pakati pemamwe marudzi, ndoita kuti vapararire munyika zhinji.+
16 Ndichasiya varume vashomanana vavo kuti varege kuurayiwa nebakatwa,+ nenzara nedenda, kuti varondedzere zvinhu zvavo zvose zvinosemesa+ pakati pemarudzi avachaenda kwaari;+ uye vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.”
17 Zvino shoko raJehovha rakaramba richiuya kwandiri, richiti:
18 “Mwanakomana womunhu, idya zvokudya zvako uchibvunda, unwe mvura yako usina kugadzikana uye uchizvidya mwoyo.+
19 Uti kuvanhu vomunyika, ‘Zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha kuvagari vomuJerusarema vari panyika yaIsraeri:+ “Vachadya zvokudya zvavo vachizvidya mwoyo, vachanwa mvura yavo vachitya kwazvo, kuti nyika yacho iitwe dongo chose+ nokuda kwechisimba chavose vanogara mairi.+
20 Maguta anogarwa achaparadzwa,+ nyika ichava dongo;+ uye muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.”’”+
21 Zvino shoko raJehovha rakauyazve kwandiri, richiti:
22 “Mwanakomana womunhu, chirevo ichi chamuri kutaura panyika yaIsraeri,+ muchiti, ‘Mazuva awedzerwa,+ uye zvakaratidzwa zvose zvaparara’+ ndecheiko?
23 Naizvozvo iti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: “Ndichaita kuti chirevo ichi chigume, uye havazochitaurizve sechirevo pakati paIsraeri.”’+ Asi taura navo uchiti, ‘Mazuva aswedera pedyo,+ uye kuitika kwezvakaratidzwa zvose.’
24 Nokuti hakuzovizve nechinhu chero chipi zvacho chakaratidzwa chisina zvachinobatsira+ kana kushopera kwokubata kumeso pakati peimba yaIsraeri.+
25 ‘“Nokuti ini Jehovha, ndichataura shoko randichataura, uye richaitwa.+ Harizosundirwi mberi zvakare,+ nokuti mumazuva enyu,+ haiwa imi imba inopandukira, ndichataura shoko ndoriita,” ndizvo zvinotaura Changamire Ishe Jehovha.’”
26 Zvino shoko raJehovha rakaramba richiuya kwandiri, richiti:
27 “Mwanakomana womunhu, tarira! vaya veimba yaIsraeri vari kuti, ‘Chiratidzo chaari kuona ndechemazuva mazhinji ari kure, uye ari kuprofita nezvenguva iri kure.’+
28 Naizvozvo iti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: “‘Mashoko angu ose haazosundirwi mberi zvakare.+ Shoko randichataura richaitwa,’+ ndizvo zvinotaura Changamire Ishe Jehovha.”’”+
