Context
21Kwa hiyo sikiliza hili, wewe uliyeteswa,
uliyelewa, lakini si kwa mvinyo. 22Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mwenyezi wako,
Mungu wako, yeye ambaye huwatetea watu wake:
“Tazama, nimeondoa mkononi mwako
kikombe kilichokufanya uyumbayumbe;
kutoka kikombe hicho,
kikombe cha kunywa cha ghadhabu yangu,
kamwe hutakunywa tena. 23Nitakiweka mikononi mwa watesi wako,
wale waliokuambia,
‘Anguka kifudifudi
ili tuweze kutembea juu yako.’
Ukaufanya mgongo wako kama ardhi,
kama njia yao ya kupita.”
