USedekiya, indodana kaJosiya, waba yinkosi esikhundleni sikaKhoniya , indodana kaJehoyakimi , wabekwa inkosi ezweni lakwaJuda nguNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBabele.

uSedekiya inkosi wathumela wamlanda ; inkosi yambuza ngasese endlini yayo, yathi: Kukhona izwi elivela kuJehova na ? UJeremiya wathi: Likhona. Wathi futhi: Uyakunikelwa esandleni senkosi yaseBabele.

Baphi manje abaprofethi benu ababeprofetha kini ngokuthi : Inkosi yaseBabele ayiyikunehlela nina naleli zwe, na?

Wayesethi uJeremiya kuSedekiya : Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti, uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, uthi: U ma uphuma nokuphuma , uye ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBabele, umphefumulo wakho uyakuphila , futhi lo muzi awuyikushiswa ngomlilo, uphile wena nendlu yakho;

Inkosi yaseBabe le yabulala amadodana kaSedekiya eRibila phambi kwamehlo akhe ; futhi inkosi yaseBabele yabulala bonke abakhulu bakwaJuda.

Futhi lapho bonke abaJuda ababekwaMowabi , naphakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Amoni, nakwa-Edomi, nababesemazweni onke sebezwile ukuthi inkosi yaseBabele ishiyile insali kwa Juda nokuthi ibeke phezu kwabo uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikamu kaShafani ukuba abe ngumbusi phezu kwabo,

Engakabuyi, yathi: Buyela kuGedaliya indodana ka -Ahikamu kaShafani , inkosi yaseBabele emenze abe ngumbusi phezu kwemizi yakwaJuda , uhlale naye p hakathi kwabantu ; noma lapho kulungile emehlweni akho ukuya khona, yiya lapho . Induna yabalindi yayisimnika umphako nesipho , yamvumela ukuba ahambe.
