jo bat yahova kahata haai, use suno: uttkar, pahadon ke samhane vadavivad kar, aur tteele bhee teree sunane paaen.

5 he meree praja, smaran kar, ki moab ke raja balak ne tere virooddh kaun see yuaktai kee? aur bor ke putra bilam ne usako kya sammati dee? aur shaitiam se gilgal tak kee baton ka smaran kar, jis se too yahova ke dharma ke kam samajh sake..

9 yahova is nagar ko pukar raha haai, aur sampoorn gyaan, tere nam ka bhy manana haai: rajadand kee, aur jo use denevala haai usakee bat suno!
10 kya ab tak dushtt ke ghar men dushttta se paya hua dhan aur chhotta aepa gharaanait naheen haai?
11 kya maain kapatt ka tarajoo aur ghattbaddh ke battkhron kee thailee lekar paavitra tthar sakata hoon?
12 yahan ke dhanavana log upadrav ka kam dekha karate haain aur yahan ke sab rahanevale joott bolate haain aur unake munh se chhl kee baten nikalatee haain.
13 is karan maain tujhe marate marate bahut hee ghaayal karata hoo, aur tere papon ke karan tujh ko ujad dalata hoon.
14 too khaaega, parantu trapt n hoga, tera patt jalata hee rahega aur too apanee sampati lekar chalega, parantu n bacha sakega, aur jo kuchh too bacha bhee le, usako maain talavar chalakar luttva doonga.
15 too boaega, parantu lavega naheen too jalapai ka tel nikalega, parantu lagane n paaega aur dakh raundega, parantu dakhmadha peene n paaega.
16 kyonaki ve omraee kee vidhaiyon par, aur ahab ke gharane ke sab kamon par chalate haain aur tum unakee yuktaiyon ke anusar chalate ho isaliye maain tujhe ujad doonga, aur is nagar ke rahanevalon par talee bajavaunga, aur tum meree praja kee namadharai sahoge..
