Who has heard such a thing? who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? shall a nation be brought forth at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
Ngubani na okhe weva kunjalo? Ngubani na okhe wabona izinto ezinjalo? Kuya kuzalwa ilizwe ngamini-nye na? Kuzalwa uhlanga ngasihlandlo sinye na? Ngokuba isathi ukuthi ukuzibhijabhija, yabazala onyana bayo iZiyon.
