7 Ngakho abantu baya kuMosi bathi kuye: “Sonile ngokukhuluma kubi ngoJehova kanye lawe.+ Ncenga uJehova akhiphe inyoka lezi kithi.” UMosi wasebancengela abantu.+

3 INkosi uZedekhiya yathuma uJehukhali+ indodana kaShelemiya, loZefaniya+ indodana kaMahaseya umphristi ukuthi baye kuJeremiya umphrofethi bafike bathi kuye: “Sicela usithandazele kuJehova uNkulunkulu wethu.”

24 USimoni wasebaphendula wathi: “Ngicela lingincengele kuJehova* ukuze ngingehlelwa langokukodwa elikukhulumileyo.”
