21 Kenako Eliya anayandikira anthu onsewo n’kunena kuti: “Kodi mukayikakayika* mpaka liti?+ Ngati Yehova ali Mulungu woona m’tsateni,+ koma ngati Baala ndiye Mulungu woona tsatirani ameneyo.” Koma anthuwo sanamuyankhe chilichonse.

5 Mfumuyo inachotsa ntchito ansembe a milungu yachilendo, amene mafumu a Yuda anawaika kuti azifukiza nsembe yautsi pamalo okwezeka m’mizinda ya Yuda ndi malo ozungulira Yerusalemu. Inachotsanso ntchito ansembe ofukiza nsembe yautsi kwa Baala,+ kwa dzuwa, kwa mwezi, kwa magulu a nyenyezi, ndi kwa khamu lonse la zinthu zakuthambo.+

13 Pakuti milungu yako, iwe Yuda,+ yafanana ndi mizinda yako kuchuluka kwake. Ndipo chinthu chochititsa manyazi+ mwachimangira maguwa ansembe, anthu inu. Mwachimangira maguwa ansembe ochuluka mofanana ndi misewu ya mu Yerusalemu. Mwamanga maguwa ansembe kuti muzifukizira Baala nsembe zautsi.’+
