17 Enye yeengilozi ezilikhomba ebezinezitja ezilikhomba+ yeza kimi yathi: “Iza, ngizokutjengisa isahlulelo sengwadla ekulu ehlezi phezu kwamanzi amanengi,+ 2 leyo amakhosi wephasi aziphethe kumbi nayo ngokomseme,*+ edakise nabantu abahlala ephasini ngewayini layo lokuziphatha kumbi ngokomseme.”*+

3 Ngebanga lewayini lekanuko* yokuziphatha kumbi ngokomseme,* zoke iintjhaba zibe bongazimbi balo+ namakhosi wephasi aziphethe kumbi ngokomseme nalo*+ nabarhwebi* bephasi banjinge ngebanga lokuphila lingananhloni ngebanga lamandla womnothwalo.”
