⁹Kepha abapristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo abenyukelanga e-altare likaJehova eJerusalema, kepha badla isinkwa esingenamvubelo phakathi kwabafowabo.

¹⁰Wangcolisa iThofeti elisesigodini sabantwana bakwaHinomu ukuba kungabikho muntu odabulisa indodana yakhe noma indodakazi yakhe emlilweni kuMologi.

¹⁴Yaphahlaza izithombe zaba yizicucu, yagawula izihlahla, yagcwalisa izindawo zazo ngamathambo abantu.

¹⁵Ngaphezu kwalokho, walenza i-altare elaliseBhethele nendawo ephakemeyo uJerobowamu indodana kaNebati owabangela ukuba u-Israyeli one, wadiliza i-altare nendawo ephakemeyo washisa indawo ephakemeyo wayichoboza. Impushana, yashisa ihlathi.

¹⁶UJosiya waphenduka, wabheka amathuna ayesentabeni, wathumela wakhipha amathambo emathuneni, wawashisa e-altare, wawangcolisa njengezwi likaJehova umuntu kaNkulunkulu. Washumayela, owashumayela lawa mazwi.

¹⁷Wathi: “Sibizo sini lesi engisibonayo na?” Abantu bomuzi bathi kuye: “Nanti ithuna lomuntu kaNkulunkulu owavela kwaJuda wamemezela lezi zinto ozenzile e-altare laseBethele.

¹⁸Wathi: “Myekeni ame; makunganyakaziswa muntu amathambo akhe. Bawashiya emile amathambo akhe kanye namathambo omprofethi owayevela eSamariya.

¹⁹Futhi zonke izindlu eziphakemeyo ezazisemizini yaseSamariya amakhosi akwa-Israyeli ayezenzile ukuba acunule uJehova, uJosiya wazisusa futhi wenza kuzo njengazo zonke izenzo ayezenzile eBhethele.

²⁰Wababulala bonke abapristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo ababelapho phezu kwama-altare, washisa amathambo abantu phezu kwawo, wabuyela eJerusalema.

²¹Inkosi yayisiyala bonke abantu, yathi: “Menzeleni uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu iphasika njengokulotshiweyo encwadini yalesi sivumelwano.”

²²Yebo, iphasika elinjalo lalingenziwanga emihleni yabahluleli ababebusa kwa-Israyeli, nasezinsukwini zonke zamakhosi akwa-Israyeli, namakhosi akwaJuda;

²³Kodwa ngomnyaka weshumi nesishiyagalombili wenkosi uJosiya leli phasika lenzelwe uJehova eJerusalema.

²⁵Ngaphambi kwakhe akubangakho nkosi enjengaye eyaphendukela kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yayo nangawo wonke umphefumulo wayo nangawo onke amandla ayo ngokuvumelana nawo wonke umthetho kaMose; emva kwakhe akuvelanga onjengaye.

²⁶Kepha uJehova akabuyanga ekuvutheni kwentukuthelo yakhe enkulu, intukuthelo yakhe eyavuthela ngakho uJuda, ngenxa yakho konke ukucunula uManase ayemcunule ngakho.

²⁷INkosi yasisithi: Laye uJuda ngizamsusa ebusweni bami, njengalokhu ngasusa uIsrayeli, ngiwulahle umuzi weJerusalema engiwukhethileyo, lendlu engatsho ngayo ukuthi: Ibizo lami lizakuba lapho.
