wa Ashikeloni undakala gandzo.
Atu a Ashidodi nao andazolwa mutsi wenye,
na atu a Ekironi andauswa kpwenye mudzi wao.
5 Shaka hiro mwi atu kula Kerethi msagalao pwani kulunga-lunga bahari.
Neno ra Mwenyezi Mlungu ri chinyumecho
uwe Kanani, yani tsi ya Afilisti.
Ndakuangamiza na taphana hata mutu ndiyesala kpwenye tsiiyo.
6 Tsi yenu ya pwani indahendwa weru wa kurisa
na kudzengbwa vibanda vya arisa na vyaa vya mangʼondzi na mbuzi.
7 Yo tsi ya pwani indakala ya atu a Juda ndiosala,
na kuko andaphaha marisa.
Dziloni andakpwedza aoye kpwenye nyumba zorichwa hiko Ashikeloni,
mana Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wao andaamanyirira,
na aauyizire hali nono ariyokala nayo pho mwandzo.

kpwa kpweli dza niishivyo,
mimi Mlungu wa Iziraeli, naapa kukala
Moabu indakala dza Sodoma
na Amoni indakala dza Gomora.
Tsi hizo zindamera mihi ya miya na madibwa ga munyu,*2:9 Madibwa ga munyu kala ni madibwa ambago kala nkutiywa madzi ga Bahari ya Munyu, madzi higo gariphouma, atu kala achizola munyu.
na zindakala tuphu hata kare na kare.
Atu angu ndiosala andaziteka tsi zao,

10 Higo gandakala maripho ga ngulu zao
kpwa kukala afyola na achidzikarya
chinyume cha atu a Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wa majeshi.
11 Mwenyezi Mlungu andaaogofyera,
mana andabananga-bananga milungu yosi kpwenye yo tsi,
na atu a pwani zosi
andamsujudiya kuko kpwenye tsi zao.
12 2:12 Isaya 18:1–7Mwenyezi Mlungu anaamba, “Piya mwimwi atu a Kushi
mundaolagbwa na upanga wangu.”
13 2:13 Isaya 10:5–34; 14:24–27; Nahumu 1:1—3:19Mwenyezi Mlungu andagolosa mkpwonowe chinyume cha vurini
na kuangamiza tsi ya Ashuru.
Andauhenda mudzi wa Ninawi ukale gandzo
na tsiiye ikale kavu dza jangbwa.
14 Mifugo ya chila aina indakala mumo
na chila aina ya nyama a tsakani.
Vimburu vindalala dzulu ya magandzoge,
vindarira mo madirishani.
Makunguru gandarira vizingitini.
Mapambo ga mierezi gandarichwa phereru.
15 Ninawi iriyodzikarya kukala i salama,
yadziamba,
“Takuna wanjina dza mimi.”
Haya vino lola,
ikakala gandzo na makalo ga nyama a tsakani.
Chila atsupaye phephi na phapho
anaufyorera na kuubera.
