Kandi Ninewe azoyigira igiharabuga+, akarere kagadutse nk’agahinga. 14 Amasho azokwigaramangira hagati muri Ninewe, n’ibikoko vyose vyo mw’ihanga+. Ikinyoni ntamayuruzi be n’ikinyogoto+ bizokwirarira hagati y’imitwe y’inkingi zaho+. Hazoguma humvikana ijwi riririmbira mw’idirisha. Hazoba agatikizo ku rwinjiriro, kuko imbaho zo ku mpome atazobura kuzisiga amenya+. 15 Ico ni ca gisagara c’akanyamuneza ntangere, cahora ciyicariye mu mutekano+, kimwe cahora kivuga mu mutima waco ngo: ‘Ni jewe, nta wundi ariho+.’ Ewe kuntu gicitse akajoreza, aho ibikoko vyo mw’ishamba vyigaramangira! Uwuzoca iruhande yaco wese azovuza agahwa, azunze ukuboko+.”
