17 Loko Abrama a ri ni malembe ya 99 hi vukhale, Yehovha a humelela eka Abrama, a ku eka yena:+ “Ndzi Xikwembu xa Matimba+ Hinkwawo. Famba emahlweni ka mina u tikombisa u ri la pfumalaka xihoxo.+

3 “‘Loko mi hambeta mi famba emilawini ya mina naswona mi hlayisa swileriso swa mina kutani mi swi hetisisa,+

3 “Oho Yehovha, ndzi kombela u tsundzuka+ ndlela leyi ndzi fambeke+ ha yona emahlweni ka wena hi ntiyiso+ ni hi mbilu leyi heleleke,+ naswona ndzi endle leswi a swi lulamile ematihlweni ya wena.”+ Kutani Hezekiya a rila swinene.+

3 Hosi yi hambeta yi yima ekusuhi ni phuphu,+ kutani yi endla ntwanano+ emahlweni ka Yehovha leswaku yi landzela+ Yehovha nileswaku yi hlayisa swileriso+ swa yena ni switiyisekiso+ swa yena ni milawu+ ya yena hi mbilu+ ya yona hinkwayo ni hi moya-xiviri+ wa yona hinkwawo, hi ku hetisisa marito ya ntwanano lowu, lawa ma tsariweke ebukwini leyi.+ Hiloko vanhu hinkwavo va yima va tiyile eka ntwanano lowu.+

3 Yehovha a va na Yehoxafati,+ hikuva a a famba etindleleni to sungula ta Davhida kokwa wakwe,+ a nga va lavisisanga Vabali.+

6 Havambirhi a va lulamile+ emahlweni ka Xikwembu hileswi a va famba hi ku pfumala xisandzu+ hi ku landza swileriso+ hinkwaswo ni swilaveko swa le nawini+ swa Yehovha.+
