14 U-Uziya wawalungiselela, emkhosini wonke, iingweletshetshe, nezikhali, nezigcina-ntloko, neengubo zentsimbi, nezaphetha, namatye okusawula.
15 Wenza eYerusalem omashini abenziwe ngobuqili beengcibi, bokuba phezu kweenqaba ezinde naphezu koqoqo, ukuba kutolwe ngeentolo, kusawulwe ngamatye amakhulu. Laduma igama lakhe, lada laya kude, ngokuba wancedwa ngokubalulekileyo, wada womelela.
16 Uthe ke akomelela, yaphakama intliziyo yakhe, wada wenza ububi; ngokuba wenza ubumenemene kuYehova uThixo wakhe, wangena etempileni kaYehova, ukuba aqhumisele esibingelelweni sesiqhumiso.
17 UAzariya umbingeleli wamlandela, enababingeleli bakaYehova abangamashumi asibhozo, amadoda anobukroti.
18 Bammela u-Uziya ukumkani, bathi kuye, Àsikokwakho, Uziya, ukuqhumisela kuYehova; kokwababingeleli, oonyana baka-Aron abángcwaliselwa ukuqhumisela; phuma engcweleni, ngokuba wènza ubumenemene; àkuluzuko oko kuwe phambi koYehova uThixo.
19 Wajala u-Uziya, ephethe ngesandla isiqhumiso sokuqhumisela. Uthe esabajalele ababingeleli, kwasuka kwaphuma iqhenqa ebunzini lakhe phambi kwababingeleli endlwini kaYehova, engasesibingelelweni sokuqhumisela.
