4 Kumane Jehova wakamwaambila kuti: “Koinda mumunzi, mu Jerusalemu, ubikke citondezyo ankumo zyabantu ibalila akutongela+ akaambo kazintu zyoonse zisesemya zicitika mumunzi.”+
5 Mpoonya wakaambila baaba bamwi kandimvwide amatwi aangu kuti: “Kamwiinda mumunzi mumutobele akujaya. Meso aanu ateetezyegwi pe, alimwi mutabafwidi lubomba naaceya.+
