7 Ngoko oonyana bakaSirayeli benza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, yaye bamlibala uYehova uThixo+ wabo baza bakhonza ooBhahali+ nezibonda ezingcwele.+

23 Naye waqhubeka ezakhela iindawo eziphakamileyo,+ iintsika ezingcwele+ nezibonda ezingcwele+ phezu kwazo zonke iinduli eziphakamileyo+ naphantsi kwayo yonke imithi enabileyo.+

4 Yaye waqhubeka ebingelela eqhumisa nombingelelo kwiindawo eziphakamileyo+ nasezindulini+ naphantsi kwayo yonke imithi enabileyo.+

18 Zayishiya indlu kaYehova uTHIXO wookhokho bazo zaza zakhonza izibonda ezingcwele+ nezithixo,+ kangangokuba kwabakho ukucaphuka nxamnye noYuda neYerusalem ngenxa yetyala lazo.+

3 Ngoko waphinda wazakha iindawo eziphakamileyo+ ezo uHezekiya uyise wayezidilizile,+ wamisa nezibingelelo+ zooBhahali+ wenza nezibonda ezingcwele,+ waqubuda+ kuwo wonke umkhosi wamazulu+ waza wawukhonza.+

29 Kuba baya kuba neentloni ngemithi emikhulu kakhulu leyo nayinqwenelayo,+ yaye niya kudana ngenxa yemiyezo eniyinyulileyo.+

20 “‘Kuba kwakudala ndayaphula idyokhwe yakho;+ ndaziqhawula izibopho zakho. Kodwa wathi: “Andizi kukhonza,” kuba walala wanaba+ phezu kweenduli zonke eziphakamileyo naphantsi kwemithi yonke enabileyo,+ uzenza unongogo.+

13 Nina kuya kufuneka nazi ukuba ndinguYehova,+ xa ababuleweyo bephakathi kwezithixo+ zabo ezinezothe, macala onke ezibingelelweni zabo,+ phezu kweenduli+ zonke eziphakamileyo, kuzo zonke iincopho zeentaba+ naphantsi kwayo yonke imithi enabileyo+ naphantsi kwayo yonke imithi emikhulu eshinyeneyo ngamasebe,+ indawo apho banikele khona ivumba elithozamisayo kwizithixo zabo zonke ezinezothe.+

28 Yaye ndabazisa kwilizwe+ endandiphakamise isandla sam ndibafungela ukubanika lona.+ Bathi bakubona zonke iinduli eziphakamileyo+ nayo yonke imithi eshinyeneyo ngamasebe, bandula ke babingelela apho imibingelelo yabo,+ banikela apho iminikelo yabo ecaphukisayo, bazisa apho amavumba abo athozamisayo,+ bethululela apho neminikelo yabo ethululwayo.+
