1 Izwi likaJehova lafika kuJehu indodana kaHanani ngoBahasha, lathi:
2 “Njengokuba ngakuphakamisa othulini, ngakubeka umbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli, kepha uhambe endleleni kaJerobowamu, wonisa abantu bami u-Israyeli ukuba bangicunule ngezono zabo,
3 bheka, ngiyakukhukhula nokukhukhula uBahasha nendlu yakhe, ngenze indlu yakho ibe njengendlu kaJerobowamu indodana kaNebati.
4 Yena wakwaBahasha ofela emzini uyakudliwa yizinja, nalowo wakwakhe ofela endle uyakudliwa yizinyoni zezulu.”
