25 Pashishe Yalobama wakibaka* Shekeme+ mu buloba bua mikuna bua Efelayima, yeye kusombelamu. Wakumbuka kuntu aku, kuyaye kuibaka* Penuele.+ 26 Yalobama wakadiambila mu muoyo wende ne: “Mpindieu bukalenge nebupingane mu nzubu wa Davidi.+ 27 Bantu aba bobu batungunuke ne kubanda ku nzubu wa Yehowa mu Yelushalema bua kulambula milambu,+ muoyo wa bantu aba neupingane kabidi kudi mfumu wabu, Lehabama mukalenge wa Yuda.
