Waphuma kulelo zwe , waya e -Asiriya, wakha iNineve , neRehoboti-Ire, neKhala,

Wayesesuka uJona , waya eNineve njengezwi likaJehova . INineve lalingumuzi omkhulu kakhulu, uhambo lwezinsuku ezintathu.

UJona waqala ukungena emzini , uhambo losuku lwaba lunye , wamemeza wathi: Kusezakuba yizinsuku ezingamashumi amane, bese lichithwa iNineve.

mina-ke bengingayikulihawukela iNineve , umuzi omkhulu , okukuwo abantu abangaphezu kwezinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amabili abangakwazi ukwahlukanisa isandla sokunene nesokhohlo, kanye nezinkomo eziningi, na?

Kepha iNineve linjengechibi lamanzi kwasendulo , nokho bayabaleka . Yimani, yimani! Kepha akakho ophendukayo.

Kuyakuthi bonke abakubonayo bakubalekele , bathi: INineve lichithekile , ngubani oyakulililela na? Ngiyakukufunelaphi abaduduzi na?

Uyakwelulela isandla sakhe ngasenyakatho , achithe i -Asiriya, alenze iNineve libe yincithakalo, lome njengehlane.
