33 Lanxa kwenzakala konke lokhu, uJerobhowami kazange atshiye okubi ayekwenza. Waqhubeka ebeka abaphristi ayebakhetha ebantwini nje+ ukuthi basebenze ezindaweni eziphakemeyo. Wayefaka loba ngubani owayefuna ukuba ngumphristi, esithi: “Laye kabe ngumphristi ezindaweni eziphakemeyo.”+

14 AmaLevi atshiya amadlelo awo lelifa lawo+ aya koJuda laseJerusalema ngenxa yokuthi uJerobhowami lamadodana akhe bawaxotsha emsebenzini wokuba ngabaphristi bakaJehova.+

9 Alibaxotshanga yini abaphristi bakaJehova,+ izizukulwane zika-Aroni kanye lamaLevi, lafaka abenu abaphristi lilandela lokho okwenziwa ngezinye izizwe?+ Loba ngubani owayebuya lejongosi kumbe lezinqama eziyisikhombisa, lalimbeka ukuthi abe ngumphristi walokho okungayisikho Nkulunkulu.
