2 “Uthi uKumkani uKoreshi wasePersi, ‘UYehova uThixo wamazulu uzinike mna zonke izizwe* zomhlaba,+ yaye undithumile ukuba ndimakhele indlu eYerusalem+ ekwaYuda. 3 Nabani na phakathi kwenu ongowakhe, kwanga uThixo wakhe anganaye. Makahambe aye eYerusalem, ekwaYuda, ayokuphinda akhe indlu kaYehova uThixo kaSirayeli, uThixo wokwenene, owayenendlu eseYerusalem.*
