Kwafunyanwa e -Akimetha endlini yamakhosi esezweni laseMediya umqulu okwakulotshwe kuwo isikhumbuzo sokuthi:

Ngavula umlomo wami, wangidlisa umqulu.

Ngalokho zonke izikhulu zathuma uJehudi indodana kaNethaniya kaShelemiya kaKushi kuBaruki , zathi: Umqulu owufundileyo ezindlebeni zabantu wuthathe ngesandla sakho , uze nawo . UBaruki indodana kaNeriya wawuthatha umqulu ngesandla sakhe, weza kuzo.

Zithathele umqulu wencwadi , ulobe kuwo onke amazwi engiwakhulume kuwe ngo -Israyeli nangoJuda , nangazo zonke izizwe , kusukela osukwini engakhuluma ngalo kuwe , kusukela ezinsukwini zikaJosiya kuze kube namuhla.

Zase zingena enkosini egcekeni; sezibeke umqulu ekamelweni lika-Elishama umbhali zalanda onke amazwi ezindlebeni zenkosi.

Inkosi yayisimthuma uJehudi ukuba awuland e umqulu ; wawukhipha ekamelweni lika-Elishama umbhali. UJehudi wawufunda ezindlebeni zenkosi nasezindlebeni zazo zonke izikhulu ezazimi ngasenkosini.

Kwathi lapho uJehudi esefundile amakhasi amathathu noma amane , yawasika ngommese womlobi, yawaphonsa emlilweni oseziko, waze waphela wonke umqulu emlilweni oseziko.

O-Elinathani noDelaya noGemariya babekhulekile enkosini ukuba ingashisi umqulu, kepha ayibezwanga.

Lase lifika izwi likaJehova kuJeremiya , inkosi isishisile umqulu namazwi awaloba uBaruki, ewathatha emlonyeni kaJeremiya, lithi:

Buya, uzithathele omunye umqulu , ulobe kuwo onke amazwi okuqala ayesemqulwini wokuqala, awushisa uJehoyakimi inkosi yakwaJuda.

UJeremiya wayesethatha omunye umqulu , wawunika uBaruki umbhali , indodana kaNeri ya, owaloba kuwo , ewathatha emlonyeni kaJeremiya onke amazwi encwadi uJehoyakimi inkosi yakwaJuda ayeyishisile ngomlilo ; kwathasiselwa kuwo amanye amazwi amaningi anjengawo.

Ngabuye ngaphakamisa amehlo a mi, ngabona; bheka, nanko umqulu wencwadi ondizayo.

Yathi kimi : Ubonani na ? Ngathi: Ngibona umqulu wencwadi ondizayo , ubude bawo buyizingalo ezingamashumi amabili , nobubanzi bawo buyizingalo eziyishumi.
