1UDariyasi ikosi yakhupha umyalo wokobana kuphenywe endlini lapha bekubulungwe khona imilando eBhabheli.

2Kwathi e-Ekibatana okuyihlokodorobho yesifunda seMidiya, kwafunyanwa umtlolomsongo ogade kutlolwe kiwo bunje: Isimemezelo.

3Ngomnyaka wokuthoma wokubusa kwakaKoretjhi ikosi, uKoretjhi loyo wakhupha umyalo malungana nethempeli lakaZimu eJerusalema: Ithempeli kufuze livuselelwe endaweni lapha kuhlatjelwa khona imihlabelo. Isisekelo salo kumele sifane nesaphambilini. Isakhiweso sibe mamitha amatjhumi amabili nalikhomba ukuphakama nobubanzi,

4godu sibe namahla amathathu wamatje acoziweko nelihla elilodwa leengodo, njalonjalo. Iindleko zakhona zikhokhelwe ngesikhwama sesigodlweni.

5Begodu izitja zegolide nezesiliva zethempeli lakaZimu egade zithethwe nguNebukhadinetsari ethempelini eJerusalema waziletha eBhabheli, azibuyiselwe eJerusalema. Kufuze zifakwe ethempelini lakaZimu endawenazo.

6Nje-ke uDariyasi waphendula uTatenayi umbusi wesifunda sangetjingalanga yomlambo iYufrathe kanye noTjhetari-Bhozenayi nabasebenzisani babo, wathi: “Nina bazenda besifunda sangetjingalanga yomlambo iYufrathe, yibani kude nalapho.

7Umsebenzi wethempeli lakaZimu ungaphazanyiswa. Akuvunyelwe umbusi wamaJuda nabaphathi bakhona bavuselele ithempeli lakaZimu endawenalo.

8Ngaphezu kwalokho ngikhupha nomyalo mayelana nalokho ofanele ukwenze kubaphathi bamaJuda ukubasekela ekuvuseleleni kwabo ithempeli lakaZimeli: Akukhutjhwe esikhwameni sesigodlo umthelo wesifunda sangetjingalanga yomlambo iYufrathe, kukhokhelwe iindleko zokusebenza kwamadoda lawo ngokukhuthala, kungariyadwa.

9Nanyana yini edingekako ukuya ngelizwi labaphristi beJerusalema, abakunikelwe: iinkunzana, amaqama neemvana zemihlabelo yokutjhiswa kuZimu wezulwini; godu banikelwe ikoroyi, itswayi, iwayini namafutha we-oliva. Abanikelwe lokho malanga woke kungatshwili

10ukuze banikele ngeminikelo eyamukeleka kuZimu wezulwini bebathandazele ukulondeka kwekosi namadodanayo.

11Begodu ngikhupha nomyalo othi nanyana ngubani ozakuhlanakela ilizwi lesimemezelwesi, akutsonyulwe isigodo endlinakhe aphanyekwe ngokuhlonyelelwa kiso. Indlu yomuntu loyo yenziwe iqubi leququ.

12UZimu owenze bonyana ibizo lakhe lihlale ethempelini lakhe eJerusalema, kwanga angaketula nanyana ngiyiphi ikosi namkha abantu abalinga ukujamelana nomyalo lo ngokubhubhisa ithempelelo. Iye, ngitjho njalo mina Dariyasi. Nje-ke umyalo lo awulandelwe ngokuzimisela okukhulu.”

13UTatenayi umbusi wesifunda sangetjingalanga yomlambo iYufrathe kanye noTjhetari-Bhozenayi nabasebenzisani babo benza ngokukhuthala okukhulu njengombana uDariyasi ikosi gade sele athumele ilizwi.

14Abaphathi bamaJuda baragela phambili bakha begodu baphumelela ngokuya ngokuphorofida kwakaHagayi umphorofidi noZakariya osizukulwana saka-Ido. Baqeda umakho wabo ngomyalo kaZimu wakwa-Israyeli nangomyalo kaKoretjhi noDariyasi kanye no-Aritarhitjhasta okumakhosi wePheresiya.

15Nje-ke ithempeleli laphela ngelanga lesithathu enyangeni ka-Adari ngomnyaka wesithandathu wokubusa kwekosi uDariyasi.

16Ama-Israyeli, abaphristi, amaLevi kanye nabo boke egade babuye ekuthunjweni, bagidinga ukuvulwa kwethempeli lakaZimu ngokuthakasa.

17Mhlana kuvulwa ithempeli lakaZimu, banikela ngekhulu leenkunzana, amaqama amakhulu amabili, iimvana ezimakhulu amane kanye nangeempongo ezilitjhumi nambili zaba njengomhlabelo wesono ngokuya kwesibalo seenkoro zakwa-Israyeli.

18Abaphristi bahlelwa ngokweengaba zabo namaLevi ngokweenqhema mayelana nomsebenzi wokulotjha uZimu eJerusalema njengombana kutloliwe encwadini kaMosi.

19Kwathi ngelanga letjhumi nane enyangeni yokuthoma, abathunjwa ababuyileko bagidinga iPhasika.

20Abaphristi namaLevi bazihlambulula bamunye; nje-ke boke njalo gade bamsulwa. AmaLevi ahlabela boke ababuye ekuthunjweni iPhasika, okutjho abafowabo, abaphristi kanye nawo ngokwawo.

21Ladliwa ma-Israyeli agade abuye ekuthunjweni kanye nabo boke ebebazihlukanise emikhubeni esilapheleko yabezizwe enarheni leyo. Labo-ke bazihlanganisa nama-Israyeli ukuze bafune intando kaSomnini uZimu wakwa-Israyeli.

22Bagidinga umnyanya wesiKwa esinganaNgumelo amalanga alikhomba, banamile. Iye, uSomnini uZimu bekabanamisile ngombana bekaphendulele ihliziyo yekosi ye-Asiriya kibo ukuze ibasize emsebenzini wethempeli lakaZimu, onguZimu wakwa-Israyeli.
