2. Wakufika khona uze ukhangele uYehu unyana kaYoshafati unyana kaNimshi. Uze umthathe umke naye koogxa bakhe, ningene kwelona gumbi likude ngaphakathi.
3. Nakuba nilapho ke uze uthathe eli qhaga lamafutha omnquma, umthambise umgalele ngawo entloko, uthi: ‘Utsho *uNdikhoyo ukuthi: Ndiyakuthambisa ukuze ube ngukumkani wakwaSirayeli.’ Wakugqiba ke, vula umnyango, ubaleke umke ngokukhawuleza.”
