Ingqwayi-ngqwayi yabalindi yamnika ukutya nomvuzo, yamkhulula. 6uYeremiya waya kuGedaliya unyana ka-Ahikam eMizpa; waya wahlala naye phakathi kwabantu ababesele elizweni. 7Beva bonke abathetheli beintendelezo zelizwe, bona namadoda abo, ukuba ukumkani waseBhabheli umise uGedaliya unyana ka-Ahikam, ukuba abe ngumlawuli welizwe, umise amadoda, nabafazi, nabantwana ekunyamekeleni kwakhe nabasweleyo belizwe, ababengabathinjelwa eBhabheli; 8Beza ke kuGedaliya uMizpa, onguIshmayeli, unyana kaNetaniya, noYohanan noYonatan, oonyana bakaKareha, noSeraya, unyana kaTanumet, noonyana bakaEfayi, noMonetofa, noYeshaniya unyana ka. Owu waseMahaka, bona namadoda abo. 9uGedaliya unyana ka-Ahikam, unyana kaShafan, wabafungela namadoda abo, esithi, Musani ukoyika ukuwakhonza amaKaledi; hlalani kweli lizwe, nikhonze ukumkani waseBhabheli, konilungela. 10Mna ke, yabona, ndihlala eMizpa ukuze ndikhonze amaKhaledi aya kuza kuthi; kodwa wena, qokelela iwayini neziqhamo zasehlotyeni neoli uze uzigalele ezityeni zakho uze uhlale kwizixeko zakho ozoyisile. 11Kwangokunjalo, eva onke amaYuda awayekwaMowabhi, noonyana baka-Amon, namaEdom, nabebekumazwe onke, ukuba ukumkani waseBhabheli uwashiyile amasalela akwaYuda, nokuba umisele unyana kaGedaliya ukuba abe likrele ityala kubo ka-Ahikam, unyana kaShafan; 12Ke onke amaYuda abuya kuzo zonke iindawo awayethinjelwe kuzo aza eza kwilizwe lakwaYuda kuGedaliya eMizpa aqokelela iwayini eninzi neziqhamo zasehlotyeni ezininzi. 13Ngaphezu koko, uYohanan unyana kaKareya nabo bonke abaphathi-mkhosi ababekwelo lizwe beza kuGedaliya eMizpa. 14Wathi kuye, Uyazi na ukuba uBhahali, ukumkani woonyana baka-Amon, uthume uIshmayeli unyana kaNetaniya, ukuba akubulale? Kodwa uGedaliya unyana ka-Ahikam akazange abakholelwe. 15Waza uYohanan unyana kaKareya wathetha kuGedaliya ngasese eMizpa, wathi: “Mandimbulale uIshmayeli unyana kaNetaniya, kungabikho bani waziyo; Yini na ukuba ade akubulale, ukuze kuvakaliswe onke amaYuda ahlanganiseneyo kuwe, atshatyalaliswe amasalela akwaYuda? 16Wathi uGedaliya unyana ka-Ahikam kuYohanan unyana kaKareha, Musa ukuyenza loo nto, ngokuba uthetha ngobuqhophololo ngoIshmayeli.
