7 “‘“Emva koko,” utsho uYehova, “ndiya kumnikela uZedekiya ukumkani wakwaYuda nabakhonzi nabantu nabo baseleyo kwesi sixeko kwindyikitya yokufa, ekreleni nasendlaleni, esandleni sikaNebhukaderetsare ukumkani waseBhabhiloni, nasesandleni seentshaba zabo nasesandleni sabo bafuna umphefumlo wabo, yaye ngokuqinisekileyo uya kubaxabela ngohlangothi lwekrele.+ Akayi kuba nosizi ngabo, engayi kubonisa mfesane okanye abe nayo nayiphi na inceba.”’+

8 “‘Nanjengamakhiwane amabi angenakudliwa ngenxa yobubi,+ enyanisweni utsho uYehova ukuthi: “Ndiya kwenjenjalo ukumnikela uZedekiya+ ukumkani wakwaYuda neenkosana zakhe nentsalela yeYerusalem eseleyo kweli lizwe+ nabo bahlala kwilizwe laseYiputa+—

21 UZedekiya ukumkani wakwaYuda+ neenkosana zakhe ndiya kubanikela esandleni seentshaba zabo nasesandleni sabo bafuna umphefumlo wabo nasesandleni semikhosi yamajoni yokumkani waseBhabhiloni+ emkayo kuni.’+

13 Ngokuqinisekileyo ndiya kuwaneka umnatha wam phezu kwaso, yaye simele sibanjiswe ngumnatha wam wokuzingela;+ kwaye ndiza kusizisa eBhabhiloni, kwilizwe lamaKhaledi,+ kodwa lona asiyi kulibona; siya kufela apho ke.+
