19 Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith the LORD.
19 kwa kuwa moyo wako ulikuwa mwororo, nawe ukajinyenyekesha mbele za Bwana, hapo ulipoyasikia maneno niliyoyanena juu ya mahali hapa, na juu ya wenyeji wake, ya kwamba watakuwa ukiwa na laana, nawe ulizirarua nguo zako, ukalia mbele zangu; basi, mimi nami nimekusikia wewe, asema Bwana.
