uyakumgcoba uJehu indodana kaNimishi abe yinkosi kwa -Israyeli, umgcobe u-Elisha indodana kaShafati wase -Abela Mehola abe ngumprofethi esikhundleni sakho.

Wayesesuka lapho , wamfumana u -Elisha indodana kaShafati ; wayelima ngezinkabi ezingamabh angqa ayishumi nambili phambi kwakhe , yena esebhangqeni leshumi nambili ; u-Eliya wadlulela kuye , waphonsa ingubo yakhe kuye.

Kepha uJehoshafati wathi : Akakho lapha umprofethi k aJehova ukuba sibuze kuJehova ngaye na ? Enye yezinceku zenkosi yakwa -Israyeli yaphendula yathi : Ukhona u -Elisha indodana kaShafati owathela amanzi ezandleni zika-Eliya.

Yathi: UNkulunkulu makenze njalo, enezele futhi, uma ikhanda lika-Elisha, indodana kaShafati, liyakube lisekuye namuhla.
