35 “‘Nxa umfowenu oseduze lawe angaba ngumyanga aswele okokuziphilisa, kumele umncede+ ngendlela onceda ngayo owesinye isizwe kanye lalowo obuye wazohlala phakathi kwenu,+ mncede ukuze aqhubeke ephila kanye lawe.

7 “Nxa omunye wabafowenu angaba ngumyanga phakathi kwenu kwelinye lamadolobho aselizweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu alinika lona, ungenzi inhliziyo yakho ibe lukhuni kumbe ube ngoncitshanayo kumfowenu ongumyanga,+ 8 ngoba kumele ube lomusa umvulele isandla sakho+ njalo kumele ube leqiniso lokuthi uyamboleka loba yini ayifunayo kumbe ayiswelayo.

8 Leli lilizwi likaJehova elafika kuJeremiya ngemva kokuthi iNkosi uZedekhiya yenze isivumelwano labo bonke abantu beJerusalema esokuthi bakhulule izigqili zabo.+ 9 Bonke kwakumele bakhulule izigqili zabo ezingamaHebheru ukuze kungabi lomJuda olesigqili esingumJuda.
