10. Sihleli ezintenteni, seva, senza ngako konke awasiwisela umthetho ngako uYonadabhi ubawo.
11. Ke kaloku kwathi, ekunyukeni kukaNebhukadenetsare, ukumkani waseBhabheli, esiza kweli lizwe, sathi, Yizani singene eYerusalem ngenxa yempi yamaKaledi, nangenxa yempi yama-Aram;* sahlala ke eYerusalem apha.
12. Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kuYeremiya, lisithi,
13. Utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Yiya, uthi kumadoda akwaYuda nakubemi baseYerusalem, Anikuvumi na ukuqeqeshwa, ukuba niwaphulaphule amazwi am? utsho uYehova.
14. Agciniwe amazwi kaYonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, awabawisela oonyana bakhe ukuba bangaseli wayini; àbaseli unanamhla, bawuphulaphula ke umthetho kayise. Ke mna ndathetha kuni, ndithetha, ndivuka kusasa; anindiphulaphulanga.
15. Ndabathumela kuni bonke abakhonzi bam, abaprofeti, ndibathuma, ndivuka kusasa, ndisithi, Khanibuye, elowo endleleni yakhe embi, nilungise iintlondi zenu, ningalandeli thixo bambi, ukuze nibakhonze; nòhlala ke emhlabeni endawunika nina nooyihlo. Ke anizithobanga iindlebe zenu, anindiphulaphulanga.
16. Inene, oonyana bakaYonadabhi unyana kaRekabhi bawugcinile umthetho kayise, awabawiselayo; ke bona aba bantu abandiphulaphuli.
17. Ngako oko utsho uYehova, uThixo wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Yabonani, ndiwazisela amaYuda nabemi bonke baseYerusalem bonke obu bubi ndathethayo ngabo; ngenxa yokuba ndathetha kubo, àbeva; ndababiza, àbasabela.
18. UYeremiya wathi kwindlu yamaRekabhi, Utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Ngenxa enokuba niwuphulaphule umthetho kaYonadabhi uyihlo, nayigcina yonke imithetho yakhe, nenza ngako konke awaniwisela umthetho ngako;
19. ngako oko utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, UYonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, akayi kunqunyukelwa ndoda yakuma phambi kwam yonke imihla.
