20 “Ngikwenta kutsi ube lubondza kulabantfu, lubondza lolucinile lwelitfusi.+

2 Ngaleso sikhatsi emabutfo enkhosi yaseBhabhulona abevimbetele iJerusalema, futsi umphrofethi Jeremiya bekavalelwe eBaleni Labogadzi+ lebelisesigodlweni* senkhosi yakaJuda.

33 Ngesikhatsi Jeremiya asevalelwe eBaleni Labogadzi,+ Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naye kwesibili watsi:

21 Ngako iNkhosi Sedekiya yakhipha umyalo wekutsi Jeremiya akagcinwe eBaleni Labogadzi,+ futsi onkhe malanga bekanikwa sinkhwa lesiyindingilizi lebesilandvwa esitaladini sebabhaki,+ kwaze kwaba ngulapho sekute sinkhwa edolobheni.+ Jeremiya wachubeka ahleli eBaleni Labogadzi.

13 Ngako Nebuzaradani indvuna yabogadzi, naNebushazbani umRabusarisi,* naNegali-sareseri umRabumagi* kanye nato tonkhe tikhulu tenkhosi yaseBhabhulona, tatfuma emadvodza 14 kutsi ayolandza Jeremiya eBaleni Labogadzi+ futsi ammikise kuGedaliya+ indvodzana ya-Ahikamu+ indvodzana yaShafani+ kuze ahlale endlini yakhe. Ngako Jeremiya wahlala emkhatsini webantfu bakubo.
