Ọwaa bụ ozi, Chipfu ziru zidoru ndu alị Hadụraku; tẹme o gbupyabẹwaa mkpụkpu Damasụkosu; kẹle ẹnya ndiphe; mẹkpoo ẹnya ọkpa-ipfu l'ọkpa-ipfu Ízurẹlu l'ophu bụkota lẹ Chipfu bẹ ọ nọwaa. 
Oopfukwaphọ iphe, oo-me mkpụkpu Hamatu, bụ ndu ẹphe l'ẹphe maru oke; mẹkwapho mkpụkpu Taya yẹe mkpụkpu Sayịdonu; mbụkpokwaa ẹphebedua ono, maru iphe ntụmatu ono. 
Ndu Taya kpụakwaru mkpụkpu phẹ kpụshia ya ike. Mkpọla-ọchaa bẹ ẹphe kpawaru kụbe g'onye kpokọberu urwuku; bya akụbe mkpọla-ododo g'onye kụberu ọzu l'agụga gbororo. 
Obenu lẹ Nnajịuphu a-nafụ phẹ iphe, bụ nkephẹ; bya enwuru ẹku phẹ ye l'eze-ẹnyimu. Ọku etsua mkpụkpu Taya ono tsufu. 
Ndu mkpụkpu Ashikelọnu a-hụma iya; ndzụ erwuta phẹ; ndu mkpụkpu Gaza ahụma iya terwuhu lẹ ndzụ-agụgu. Nokwaphọ g'ọo-dụ ndu Ẹkuronu; kẹle iphe, ẹphe shi ele ẹnya iya a-la pyẹtee. Ndu Gaza bẹ onye eze phẹ a-la l'iswi; l'a gbakahụ lẹ Ashikelọnu. 
Ọ bụru ndu alị ọzo e-buchi mkpụkpu Ashịdodu; mu emee g'eku-onwonye ndu Filisitayinu bụru bugemu. 
Mee-iphe ono, ẹphe angụje ono bẹ mu a-nafụ phẹ; mu anyashịa phẹ nri ono, e merwuru emerwụ ono, nyakaaru phẹ l'eze ono; nwa ndu ọphu phọduru nụ lẹ ndu ono; anọdu-doru Chileke anyi; bụru ndu a-dụwaa g'ipfu ẹka phẹ l'alị Jiuda; ndu Ẹkuronu abyakpọro adụ gẹ ndu Jiebusu. 
Obenu lẹ ndibe mu bẹ mu a-nọdu adzọje l'ẹ́ká ndu ojọgu, azọ garamugaramu agha ono; ọphu ndu ewere abyadụ agbabaa ndibe mu ophorokpo; kẹle nta-a bẹ mu gudewaa ẹnya mu hụma g'ẹphe ejebe iphe-ẹhuka. 
Gụbe nwada Zayọnu; tekwaa ẹswa teshia ya ike! Gụa ebvu ẹhu-ụtso; gụbe nwada Jierúsalẹmu! Lekwa; onye bụru ngu eze abyapfutaakwa ngu. Ọ bụ onye pfụberekoto; tẹme ọ nọdu adzọje nemadzụ. O wozetaru onwiya alị; nọdu l'eli nkapfụ-ịgara agba abya; mbụ l'eli nwa nkapfụ-ịgara ọbu. 
Ndu Ifuremu bẹ mu a-nafụ ụgbo-ịnya-ọgu phẹ; mu anafụkwapho ndu Jierúsalẹmu ịnya, aagbajẹ alwụ ọgu. L'a gbajia ụta, e gude eje ọgu. L'ọ raa ya arara sụ g'ẹhu dụkwa ọhamoha guu. Abụ eze nkiya e -shi l'eze-ẹnyimu ọwa dasweru eze-ẹnyimu ọzo. L'o shikwaphọ l'ẹnyimu Yufurétisu nọo jasụ l'ẹka igwe beru alị beru. 
“A -bya lẹ gụbedua; mu e-gude kẹ mee ono, mu lẹ ngu gude gbaa ndzụ ono haa ndibe ngu, nọ lẹ mkpọro l'ime iduma, mini adụdu ono; mee phẹ; ẹphe enweru onwophẹ. 
Unu laphu azụ l'ẹka ono, unu kpụshiru ike ono; unubẹ ndu mkpọro ono, ẹnya dụ l'ụzo ono! Mbụ lẹ nta-a bẹ mu arakwa iya arara lẹ mu a-nụ unu iphe, ha g'iphe, unu shi nwehawarụ ugbo ẹbo; 
kẹle mu e-woru ndu Jiuda kwee g'onye kweru ụta; mu eworu ndu Ifuremu mee g'ọ bụru apfụ, e gude agba ụta ọbu. Mu a-kpatsu ndibe gụbe Zayọnu g'ẹphe dapfu ndibe gụbe Gurisu. Mu emee ngu g'ị du g'ogu-echi, onye dụ ike l'ọgu pa.” 
Noo teke Chipfu a-byapyabẹ phẹ. Apfụ iya eziahaa phaaphaa g'ebemu-igwe. Nnajịuphu, bụ Chipfu abya eworu opu-ọgu gbua. Ọ bụru oke phẹrephere, shi ndọhali bẹ oo-gude eje. 
Ọ bụru Chipfu, bụ Ọkalibe-Kakọta-Ike e-gbobuta phẹ. Ẹphe a-nọdu atsụ ndu ọhogu phẹ ọtsu-ẹpfu; alwụ phẹ alwụ-kpe phẹ. Ọ bụru iphe, ẹphe e-gude eme iya bụ mkpuma rọbo agbagba phẹ. Ẹphe a-ngụ iphe, aangụ angụngu; aba gẹ ndu mẹe atsụ. Ẹphe ejije pyịmu g'ochi, eegudeje ephe mee l'agụga ọru-ngwẹja Chileke. 
Ọ bụru Chipfu, bụ Chileke phẹ a-nọdu adzọ phẹ m'o -rwua mbọku ono; eshinu ẹphe dụ g'iphe-edobe iya bya abụru ndibe iya. Ẹphe a-gbajẹ kpịngu l'alị iya g'igopoto, nọ l'eli okpu-eze.
