26 UAhaziya wayeneminyaka engamashumi amabini anesibini ubudala ukuqalisa kwakhe ukulawula, yaye walawula eYerusalem unyaka omnye.+ Yaye igama likanina lalinguAtaliya+ umzukulwana kaOmri+ ukumkani wakwaSirayeli.

2 Ngenxa yokunxaxha kwelizwe zininzi iinkosana ezilandelelanayo,+ kodwa ngomntu oqondayo onolwazi lokulungileyo inkosana iya kuhlala ithuba elide.+

16 Imimiselo kaOmri+nawo wonke umsebenzi wendlu ka-Ahabhi uyagcinwa,+ yaye nina nihamba ngamacebo abo;+ ukuze ndinenze into yokukhwankqisa nabemi baso into yokubethelwa umlozi;+ niya kuthwala ihlazo lezizwana.”+
