5 UJehova wayishaya inkosi, yaba ngonochoko kwaze kwafika usuku lokufa kwayo, yahlala endlini eyahlukanisiweyo. UJothamu, indodana yenkosi, wayephezu kwendlu ahlulela abantu bezwe.
6 Ezinye izindaba zika-Azariya nakho konke akwenzayo angithi kulotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwaJuda na?
7 U-Azariya wayeselala koyise; bammbela koyise emzini kaDavide; uJothamu, indodana yakhe, waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
8 Ngomnyaka wamashumi amathathu nesishiyagalombili ka-Azariya inkosi yakwaJuda, uZakariya, indodana kaJerobowamu, wayeyinkosi kwa-Israyeli eSamariya izinyanga eziyisithupha.
9 Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova njengalokho benzile oyise, kasukanga ezonweni zikaJerobowamu, indodana kaNebati, onisa ngazo u-Israyeli.
10 UShalumi, indodana kaJabeshi, wamenzela ugobe, wamgenca phambi kwabantu, wambulala, waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
11 Ezinye izindaba zikaZakariya, bheka, zilotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli.
