22 Ngonyaka wokuqala kaKoreshi+ ukumkani wasePersi,+ ukuze ilizwi likaYehova+ ngomlomo kaYeremiya+ liphunyezwe, uYehova wavusa umoya+ kaKoreshi ukumkani wasePersi, kangangokuba wabangela ukuba kudluliswe isimemezo kubo bonke ubukumkani bakhe, wasibhala,+ esithi:

14 “Qokelelanani ndawonye, nonke, nize nive.+ Ngubani na phakathi kwabo oxele ezi zinto? UYehova umthandile.+ Uya kwenza oko kumyolisayo eBhabhiloni,+ nengalo yakhe iya kuba phezu kwamaKhaledi.+
