2 Umuntu kaNkulunkulu weqiniso wakhuluma ilizwi likaJehova elimayelana le-alithare, wamemeza wathi: “Alithare, wena alithare! Nanku okutshiwo nguJehova: ‘Endlini kaDavida kuzazalwa umntwana ongumfana okuzathiwa nguJosiya!+ Uzanikela phezu kwakho abaphristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo,* labo abatshisa imihlatshelo phezu kwakho futhi uzatshisa amathambo abantu phezu kwakho.’”+

16 INkosi uJosiya yathi ithalaza yabona amangcwaba entabeni, yasisithi kuthathwe amathambo ayesemangcwabeni lawo, yawatshisa phezu kwe-alithare yalingcolisa ukuze kungaqhubeki kukhonzelwa kulo. Yenza njengoba nje uJehova wayetshilo esebenzisa umuntu kaNkulunkulu weqiniso owaphrofetha ukuthi lokho yikho okwakuzakwenzakala.+
