25 Eceleni kwakhe kwakuloPhalali indodana ka-Uzayi, esakha phambi kwensika yomduli lomphotshongo ophezulu owawubambene lendlu yenkosi,*+ egumeni labalindi.+ UPhalali wayelandelwa nguPhedaya indodana kaPharoshi.+

2 Ngalesosikhathi amabutho enkosi yeBhabhiloni ayevimbezele iJerusalema futhi umphrofethi uJeremiya wayevalelwe egumeni labalindi+ esigodlweni senkosi* yakoJuda.

33 Ilizwi likaJehova lafika kuJeremiya okwesibili ngesikhathi elokhu evalelwe egumeni labalindi,+ lathi:

13 Bamdonsa uJeremiya ngezintambo bamkhipha emgodini. Ngemva kwalokho uJeremiya waqhubeka ehlala egumeni labalindi.+

28 UJeremiya waqhubeka esegumeni labalindi+ kwaze kwaba lilanga iJerusalema eyanqotshwa ngalo. Wayelokhu elapho ngesikhathi iJerusalema inqotshwa.+
