| 1. | UMoya kaThixo wamfikela uAzariya, unyana kaOdede. |
| 2. | Waphuma, esiya kukhawulela uAsa, wathi kuye, Ndiphulaphuleni, Asa, nani nonke maYuda namaBhenjamin; uYehova unani ekubeni ninaye; ukuba nithe namquqela, nomfumana; ukuba nithe namshiya, wonishiya nani. |
| 3. | AmaSirayeli ayenemihla emininzi engenaThixo wenyaniso, engenambingeleli uyalayo, engenamthetho. |
| 4. | Ke athi ekubandezelekeni kwawo, akubuyela kuYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuba amquqele, amfumana. |
| 5. | Ngaloo maxesha kwakungekho luxolo kophumayo nakongenayo, zaba ziziphithiphithi ezikhulu kubemi bonke bamazwe. |
| 6. | Uhlanga lwaqotywa luhlanga, umzi ngumzi; ngokuba uThixo wabadubaduba ngeembandezelo zonke. |
| 7. | Ke nina yomelelani; mazingawi izandla zenu; ngokuba umsebenzi wenu unomvuzo. |
| 8. | Wathi uAsa, akuweva loo mazwi nesiprofeto sikaOdede umprofeti, womelela, wazikhwelelisa zonke izinto ezinezothe ezweni lonke lakwaYuda nelakwaBhenjamin, nasemizini abeyithimbile kweleentaba lakwaEfrayim; wasihlaziya isibingelelo sikaYehova, esiphambi kwevaranda kaYehova. |
| 9. | Wawahlanganisa onke amaYuda namaBhenjamin nabasemzini ababekuwo, bakwaEfrayim, nabakwaManase, nabakwaSimon; ngokuba bagalela kuye abakwaSirayeli babaninzi, bakubona ukuba uYehova uThixo wakhe unaye. |
| 10. | Babuthelana ke eYerusalem ngenyanga yesithathu, ngomnyaka weshumi elinesihlanu wobukumkani buka-Asa, |
| 11. | babingelela kuYehova ngaloo mhla, bethabatha kumaxhoba ababeze nawo: amakhulu asixhenxe eenkomo, namawaka asixhenxe empahla emfutshane. |
| 12. | Benza umnqophiso wokumquqela uYehova, uThixo wooyise, ngentliziyo yabo yonke, nangomphefumlo wabo wonke; bathi, |
| 13. | Bonke abasukuba bengamquqeli uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, mababulawe, kuthabathele komncinane kuse komkhulu; kuthabathele kwindoda kuse kwinkazana. |
| 14. | Bafunga kuYehova ngezwi elikhulu, nangokuduma, nangamaxilongo, nangezigodlo. |
| 15. | Asivuyela onke amaYuda isifungo eso; ngokuba afunga ngentliziyo yawo yonke, amquqela ngemvume yawo yonke, amfumana; uYehova wawaphumza ngeenxa zonke. |
| 16. | Kananjalo ukumkani wamguzula uMahaka unina, ukuba angabi saba yinkosikazi; ngokokuba wayemenzele uAshera isithixo esilisikizi. Waza uAsa wasixhaxha isithixo sakhe, wasithi vithivithi, wasitshisa emlanjaneni oyiKidron. |
| 17. | Ke iziganga azisuswanga kwaSirayeli; kodwa yona intliziyo ka-Asa yabe igqibelele yonke imihla yakhe. |
| 18. | Wazingenisa izinto ezingcwele zikayise, nezinto zakhe ezingcwele, endlwini kaThixo, isilivere, negolide, nempahla. |
| 19. | Akwaba sabakho mfazwe, kwada kwaba ngumnyaka wamashumi amathathu anesihlanu wobukumkani buka-Asa. |
