16 Icyakora amaze gukomera, yagize ubwibone bituma arimbuka. Yahemukiye Yehova Imana ye, yinjira mu rusengero rwa Yehova atwikira umubavu* ku gicaniro cyo gutwikiraho umubavu.+ 17 Umutambyi Azariya hamwe n’abandi batambyi ba Yehova 80 bari intwari, bahita binjira bamukurikiye. 18 Bagerageza kubuza Umwami Uziya, baramubwira bati: “Uziya we, ntiwemerewe gutwikira umubavu Yehova,+ ahubwo abatambyi bo mu muryango wa Aroni+ bejejwe ni bo bonyine bemerewe gutwika umubavu. Sohoka uve mu rusengero kuko wahemutse kandi ibi wakoze ntibiri butume Yehova agushimira.”

19 Ariko igihe Uziya yari agifashe icyo batwikiraho umubavu* mu ntoki kugira ngo awutwike, ararakara cyane.+ Nuko igihe yari akirakariye abo batambyi, ibibembe+ bihita biza mu gahanga ke akiri kumwe n’abo batambyi mu nzu ya Yehova, iruhande rw’igicaniro cyo gutwikiraho imibavu. 20 Umutambyi mukuru Azariya n’abandi batambyi bose bamurebye, basanga azanye ibibembe mu gahanga. Nuko bahita bamusohora vuba vuba, na we ahita asohoka, kuko Yehova ari we wari ubimuteje.

21 Umwami Uziya yakomeje kurwara ibibembe kugeza igihe yapfiriye kandi yakomeje kuba mu nzu iri ukwayo, kuko yari arwaye ibibembe,+ atemerewe no kujya mu nzu ya Yehova. Icyo gihe umuhungu we Yotamu ni we wari ushinzwe ibyo mu rugo* rwe, akanacira imanza abaturage bo mu gihugu.+
