10 U-Ezra umphristi wasesukuma wathi kubo: “Kalizange lithembeke kuNkulunkulu ngoba lithethe abafazi kwezinye izizwe.+ Lokhu sekwenze langezelela icala lika-Israyeli. 11 Ngakho vumani izono zenu kuJehova uNkulunkulu wabokhokho benu lenze intando yakhe. Zehlukaniseni labantu bezinye izizwe labafazi benu bezizweni.”+

9 Mhlaka 24 ngaleyonyanga abako-Israyeli babuthana bazila ukudla begqoke izembatho zamasaka, bezithela ngenhlabathi emakhanda.+ 2 Labo ababengabako-Israyeli ngomdabuko behlukana labantu bonke bezinye izizwe,+ basebesima bavuma izono zabo lezabokhokho babo.+
