9 Ukumkani wathumela kuye umthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, enamashumi omahlanu akhe. Wenyuka weza kuye; nanko ke ehleli encotsheni yentaba. Wathetha kuye wathi, Mfo wakwaThixo, úthe ukumkani, Yihla.
10 Waphendula uEliya, wathi kumthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, Ukuba ke mna ndingumfo wakwaThixo, makuhle umlilo ezulwini, ukudle wena namashumi omahlanu akho. Kwehla ke umlilo ezulwini, wamdla yena namashumi omahlanu akhe.
11 Wabuya wamthumela kuye omnye umthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, enamashumi omahlanu akhe. Wenyuka wathi kuye, Mfo wakwaThixo, útsho ukumkani ukuthi, Khawuleza uhle.
12 Waphendula uEliya, wathi kubo, Ukuba ke ndingumfo wakwaThixo, makuhle umlilo ezulwini, ukudle wena namashumi omahlanu akho. Wehla ke umlilo kaThixo ezulwini, wamdla yena namashumi omahlanu akhe.
13 Wabuya wathuma owesithathu umthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, enamashumi omahlanu akhe. Wenyuka ke owesithathu umthetheli-mashumi-mahlanu, waguqa ngamadolo phambi koEliya, watarhuzisa kuye, wathi kuye, Mfo wakwaThixo, mawunqabe emehlweni akho umphefumlo wam, nomphefumlo wabakhonzi bakho abamashumi mahlanu.
14 Ùyabona, kwehla umlilo ezulwini, wabadla abathetheli bobabini baloo mashumi angamahlanu, kunye namashumi omahlanu abo; ngoko ke mawunqabe emehlweni akho umphefumlo wam.
15 Sathi isithunywa sikaYehova kuEliya, Yihla naye; musa ukumoyika. Wesuka ke, wehla, waya naye kukumkani.
