22 ¹Isiprofeto esibhekisa kweNtili yoMbono. Yintoni na ngoku le nto nenyuke nonke naya phezu kwezindlu, ^a a v1 Intili yoMbono: ligama lobungcibi leYerusalem, elikhumbuza ngeentili ezinzulu ezijikeleze esi sixeko. ²wena mzi uzele yingxolo, wena sixeko sidudayo nesisisaqunge, wena mzi udlamkileyo? Abafileyo bakho ababulawanga likrele, bengabhubhanga nasemfazweni. ³Bonke abalawuli bakho babaleka kunye; babanjwa kungakhululwa nasaphetha. Nonke nina enafunyanwayo nathinjwa kunye, nangona nanibalekele kude. ⁴Ngako oko ndathi: “Khanisuke kum; ndiyekeni ndilile ngokukrakra. Sanukulinga ukundithuthuzela ngenxa yembalela yentombi yabantu bam.” ⁵Kuba uBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini unemini yesaqunge nokunyathelwa nokudungadunga eNtilini yoMbono—iindonga zidilizwa, nesikhalo socelomncedo sivakalela ezintabeni. ⁶UElam wathabatha umphongolo wakhe eneenqwelo zokulwa nabamahashe, uKire wawahluba amakhaka awo. ⁷Iintili zakho ezinconywayo zaba zizele ziinqwelo zokulwa, baza abamahashe bakha uluhlu emasangweni. ⁸UBawo wethu wazihluba iindawo zokhuselo zelakwaYuda. Ngaloo mini nakhangela kwizikhali ezaseNdlwini yeHlathi, ^b b v8 Indlu yeHlathi: yindawo yezikhali enkulu kaSolomon eYerusalem, ethiywe ngeentsika zayo zemisedare ezininzi. ⁹nabona ukuba zazininzi kangakanani iintanda emzini kaDavide. Nawuqokelela amanzi echibi elasezantsi, ¹⁰nazibala izindlu zaseYerusalem, naza nadiliza ezinye ukuze niqinise udonga. ¹¹Nenza idama phakathi kweendonga zombini ukuze nigcine amanzi echibi elidala, kodwa anakhangela kuLowo waliyilayo, nanangamnanzi uBawo wethu owayicwangcisa kudala le nto. ¹²Ngaloo mini uBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini wabiza ukulila nokwenza isijwili, iintloko ezichetyiweyo nezambatho zokuzila. ¹³Kwathi endaweni yoko kwabakho uvuyo nemigcobo, kuxhelwa iinkomo kubulawa izimvu, kudliwa inyama kuselwa iwayini: “Masidle, sisele, kuba ngomso siyafa!”

¹⁴UBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini ukutyhilile oku kum: “Inene esi sono asiyi kususwa kuni nide nife,” utsho uBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini.

¹⁵Utsho uBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini ukuthi: Yiya kulo mphathi, uShebhena, ophethe indlu yokumkani, uthi kuye: ¹⁶Wenza ntoni na apha, ngubani okunike igunya lokuba ube lapha, lokuba uzikrolele ingcwaba apha—ukukrola ingcwaba lakho phezulu ezincotsheni, uqingqa indawo yakho yokuphumla eweni? ¹⁷Yabona, uBawo wethu uza kukusawula uphele, wena ndoda inamandla; uza kukubamba abambe nkqi. ¹⁸Uya kukusonga ube yintsonga aze akuphose njengebhola kwilizwe elibanzi elivulekileyo. Uya kufela khona, zifele khona neenqwelo zakho zokulwa ezinekratshi—wena uzisa ihlazo endlwini yenkosi yakho. ¹⁹Ndiya kukukhupha emsebenzini wakho, utyhokulwe esikhundleni sakho.

²⁰Ngaloo mini ndiya kubiza umkhonzi wam uEliyakim unyana kaHilekiya, ²¹ndimambathise ingubo yakho yokwaleka, ndimbhinqise umbhinqo wakho, ndibeke igunya lakho esandleni sakhe. Uya kuba nguyise kubemi baseYerusalem nakwindlu yakwaYuda. ²²Ndiya kubeka isitshixo sendlu kaDavide egxalabeni lakhe; oko akuvulayo akuyi kuvalwa mntu, noko akuvalayo akuyi kuvulwa mntu. ^c c v22 UYesu uzibhekisa kule vesi kwiSityhilelo 3:7 — uEliyakim ungumfuziselo woNyana ongunaphakade ophethe isitshixo sikaDavide. ²³Ndiya kumbethelela njengesikhonkwane endaweni eqinileyo, aze abe sisihlalo sodumo kwindlu kayise. ²⁴Baya kuxhoma kuye bonke ubunzima bendlu kayise—inzala neentshulo, zonke izitya ezincinane, ukususela ezityeni kuse kuzo zonke iinkamba. ²⁵Ngaloo mini, utsho uBawo wemikhosi yasezulwini, isikhonkwane esibethelelwe endaweni eqinileyo siya kukhwinca; siya kugawulwa siwe, uze lowo mthwalo uxhonywe kuso unqunyulwe—kuba uBawo wethu uthethile.
