32 ndide ndifike ndinithabathele kwilizwe elinjengelizwe lenu,+ ilizwe lokudla okuziinkozo newayini entsha, ilizwe lesonka+ nezidiliya,+ ilizwe leminquma nobusi;+ nize niqhubeke niphila ningafi. Ningamphulaphuli uHezekiya, kuba uyanilukuhla, esithi, ‘UYehova uya kusihlangula.’+

17 Wabhala neencwadi+ zokungcikiva uYehova uTHIXO kaSirayeli+ wathetha nxamnye naye, esithi: “Njengoothixo beentlanga+ zala mazwe abangabahlangulanga abantu babo esandleni sam,+ ngoko noTHIXO kaHezekiya akayi kubahlangula abantu bakhe esandleni sam.”

12 “Kuya kuthi xa uYehova enqumla wonke umsebenzi wakhe eNtabeni yeZiyon naseYerusalem, ndenze kuphendulwe ngesiqhamo sokusa kwentliziyo kakumkani waseAsiriya nokuzigwagwisa ngokuphakama kwamehlo akhe.+

18 ukuze uHezekiya anganilukuhli,+ esithi, ‘UYehova uya kusihlangula.’ Ngaba ngamnye koothixo beentlanga uye walihlangula ilizwe lakhe esandleni sokumkani waseAsiriya?+
