Ndathi ke, akandithumanga na kumadoda abehleli eludongeni, ukuze adle ilindle lawo, asele newayini yawo? 13Wesuka wema uRabheki, wadanduluka ngelizwi elikhulu ngolwimi lwamaYuda, wathi: “Waveni amazwi okumkani omkhulu, ukumkani waseAsiriya. 14Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Makanganilukuhli uHezekiya, ngokuba akayi kuba nako ukunihlangula. 15Musani ukumvumela uHezekiya anikholise ngoYehova ngokuthi, Inene, uYehova wosisindisa; lo mzi awuyi kunikelwa esandleni sokumkani waseAsiriya. 16Musani ukumphulaphula uHezekiya, ngokuba uthi kukumkani waseAsiriya, Yenza umnqophiso nam ngomnikelo, uphume kum; badle elowo iidiliya zakhe, badle elowo umkhiwane wakhe, basele elowo amanzi equla lakhe; 17ndide ndize ndinise ezweni elinjengelizwe lenu, ilizwe lengqolowa newayini entsha, ilizwe lesonka nezidiliya. 18Zilumkeleni, hleze anilahlekise uHezekiya, esithi, uYehova wosisindisa.
