5 God tell mi again sey,
6 “Bikos dis pipol rijet Shiloah kwayet wota wey dey flow pass,
but dey fear wons dem si Rezin and Pekah,
7 mi wey bi God go bring kings and dia sojas kon attack Judah.
Dem go kom like Eufrates River wey dey flow well-well.
8 Dem go distroy Judah like wota wey distroy tins.
Dem go spread dia feada
kon kover di land and sey, ‘O Immanuel.’ ”
9 Dem go distroy di town kon skata evriwhere!
So make una listin, all di far-far land for di eart.
Make una dey ready to fight,
but dem go still distroy una!
10 Even if una plan, una nor go susid.
Make una tok anytin wey una wont,
but all of dem go dey yuzles,
bikos God dey with us.

11 True-true, dis na wetin God tok. E hold mi kon warn mi sey make I nor bihave like dis pipol:
12 “Make yu nor join di pipol plan
and nor fear di tins wey dem dey fear.
13 Make yu remember sey, mi wey bi God wey get pawa,

14 Bikos I dey holy;
I bi like stone wey dey fall pipol
and rock wey dey make pipol stagga.
Yes! I bi like trap

15 Di stone and bricks go make many pipol stagga
and fall and dem go wound well-well and di trap go katch dem.”
God Warn Doz Wey Dey Tok With Dead body
16 Una wey dey follow God, make una guide
and keep di message wey E give mi.
17 I go really wait for God wey don rijet Jakob family;

18 Si, mi and di sons wey God give mi, go bi signs and wonders for Israel pipol and na Oga God, di Pesin wey dey stay for Mount Zion, send us kom.
19 But pipol go tell una make una go meet doz wey dey si vishon, so dat dem go give una message and afta dem don tok anyhow, dem go sey, “Make una go meet dead body spirits, so dat dem go help una.” 20 Den make una remember God kommand and evritin wey di profets sey go happen. True-true, all di pipol wey dey si vishon, dey tok all dis tins, bikos dia mind dey dark.
