20 Bavuka ekuseni kusasa baza baphuma baya entlango+ yaseTekowa.+ Yaye njengoko babephuma, uYehoshafati wema waza wathi: “Ndiveni, maYuda nani bemi baseYerusalem!+ Kholwani+ kuYehova uThixo wenu ukuze nihlale ixesha elide. Kholwani kubaprofeti+ bakhe ukuze niphumelele.”

5 Yaye ecaleni kwabo amaTekowa+ ayesenza umsebenzi wokulungisa; kodwa iingangamsha+ zawo azizange zifake sandla kwinkonzo yeenkosi zazo.
