31 Inkosi yathi ilokhu isakhuluma ilizwi lehla livela ezulwini lathi: “Nanku umbiko wakho Nkosi Nebhukhadinezari, ‘Usuwuthathelwe umbuso+ 32 njalo usuxotshwa ebantwini. Uzahlala lezinyamazana zeganga, udle utshani njengenkomo futhi kuzadlula izikhathi eziyisikhombisa, uze ukwazi ukuthi oPhezukonke ulamandla phezu kwemibuso yabantu lokuthi umbuso uwunika loba ngubani afuna ukumnika.’”+

33 Ngalesosikhathi ilizwi lelo lagcwaliseka kuNebhukhadinezari. Waxotshwa ebantwini waqalisa ukudla utshani njengenkomo. Umzimba wakhe wamanziswa ngamazolo avela phezulu, inwele zakhe zakhula zaba zinde njengensiba zokhozi lenzipho zakhe zaba njengezenyoni.+
