27 Kwathi emini enkulu, uEliya wadlala ngabo, esithi, Nqulani ngezwi elikhulu, ngokuba enguthixo; ingabi usacinga, ingabi uthe gu bucala, ingabi useluhambeni; ingabi mhlawumbi ulele, unokuba avuswe.
28 Banqula ngezwi elikhulu ke, bazicenta ngokwesiko labo ngamakrele nangezikhali, lada latsaza igazi kubo.
29 Kwathi emveni kwemini enkulu, baprofeta kwada kwesa ekunyusweni komnikelo wokudla wangokuhlwa; akwabakho lizwi, akwabakho uphendulayo, akwabakho ubeke indlebe.
30 Wathi uEliya ebantwini bonke, Sondelani kum apha. Basondela ke abantu bonke kuye. Wabuya wasakha isibingelelo sikaYehova esibe sidiliziwe.
31 UEliya wathabatha amatye alishumi elinamabini, ngokwenani lezizwe zoonyana bakaYakobi, eleza kuye ilizwi likaYehova lisithi, Liya kuba nguSirayeli igama lakho.
32 Wákha ngamatye lawo isibingelelo egameni likaYehova, wenza umsele olingene iiseha* ezimbini zembewu, ngeenxa zonke esibingelelweni.
33 Wazilungisa iinkuni, wayityatya inkunzi entsha, wayibeka phezu kweenkuni.
