13 Kananjalo ndavuthulula isondo lengubo yam, ndathi, UThixo makenjenje ukubavuthulula ezindlwini zabo, nasekuxelengeni kwabo, bonke abantu abangayi kulimisa elo lizwi; mabenjiwe nje ukuvuthululwa, balambathe. Lathi lonke ibandla, Amen; bamdumisa uYehova. Benza ke abantu ngokwelo lizwi.
14 Kananjalo kususela kumhla endamiselwa ukuba ndibe libamba labo ezweni lakwaYuda, ndithabathela kumnyaka wamashumi amabini, ndezisa kumnyaka wamashumi amathathu anamibini ka-Artashashta ukumkani, iyiminyaka elishumi elinamibini, mna nabazalwana bam asidlanga kudla kwabamba.
15 Ke amabamba okuqala abephambi kwam enza kwaba nzima ebantwini, athabatha kubo isonka newayini; emveni koko athabatha amashumi amané eeshekele* zesilivere; kananjalo amadodana akwawo enza ngegunya ebantwini. Ke mna andenjanga njalo, ngokoyika uThixo.
16 Kananjalo ndabamba emsebenzini wolo donga; asithenganga masimi; onke amadodana akwam ayehlanganisene khona emsebenzini.
17 Ke amaYuda, abaphathi, amadoda alikhulu elinamanci mahlanu, kwanawezáyo kuthi, evela ezintlangeni ezisijikelezileyo, abe esetafileni yam.
18 Into ebe ilungiselelwa imini enye yaba yinkomo, neegusha ezikhethiweyo ezintandathu, neentaka, bekusenzelwa mna; neentlobo zonke ezininzi zewayini ngeentsuku ezilishumi; kuloo nto andibizanga kudla kwabamba, ngokuba yayinzima inkonzo phezu kwaba bantu.
19 Ndíkhumbulele okulungileyo, Thixo wam, ngako konke endikwenzele aba bantu.
