4kanye nekucitsa kwakhe ingati leyayingenacala, ngobe phela iJerusalema yayigcwele ingati yebantfu lababengenacala. Simakadze abengakatimiseli kutsetselela Manase ngaloko.

11naNebukhadnezari cobo lwakhe, waya kulo lelidolobha ngesikhatsi tindvuna takhe tisalivimbetele.

12Jehoyakhini, inkhosi yakaJuda, nenina, netinceku takhe, netikhulu takhe, kanye netindvuna takhe bavele baphakamisa tandla bashweleta kuye. Ngemnyaka wesiphohlongo wekubusa kwenkhosi yaseBhabhulona, lenkhosi yatfumba Jehoyakhini, waba siboshwa.

13Njengobe Simakadze abeshito, Nebukhadnezari watsatsa yonkhe ingcebo, wayisusa ethempelini laSimakadze nasesigodlweni senkhosi, watitsatsa tonkhe leto timphahla tegolide letatentiwe nguSolomoni, inkhosi yaka-Israyeli, latentela lithempeli laSimakadze.

14Wayitfumba yonkhe iJerusalema: tonkhe tindvuna, netingwazi, nato tonkhe tingcweti temisebenti yetandla kanye nebabumbi betinsimbi; babeti-10 000 sebabonkhe. Kwashiywa labo bantfu lababetimphofana kuphela.

15Nebukhadnezari watfumba Jehoyakhini, wahamba naye waya eBhabhulona. Labanye labatfumba lapha eJerusalema bekungunina wenkhosi Jehoyakhini, nemakhosikati aJehoyakhini, netindvuna takhe kanye nemadvodza lamcoka elive.

16Inkhosi yaseBhabhulona yatfumbela eBhabhulona tingwazi letiti-7 000, letaticinile tilungele kulwa imphi; watitfumba kanye nenkhulungwane yetingcweti emisebentini yetandla kanye nasekubumbeni tintfo ngensimbi.

17Nebukhadnezari wase ubeka Mathaniya, malume waJehoyakhini, kutsi abe yinkhosi esikhundleni sakhe, wabe sewumetsa libito watsi nguSedekiya.

18Sedekiya abeneminyaka lengema-21 budzala, nakabekwa kuba yinkhosi. Wabusela eJerusalema iminyaka leli-11. Libito lenina bekunguHamutali, indvodzakati yaJeremiya, waseLibna.

19Wenta lokubi emehlweni aSimakadze, njengobe naJehoyakimu abentile.

20Kwabangelwa yintfukutselo yaSimakadze lokutsi loku kwenteke eJerusalema nakaJuda, kwaze kwatsi ekugcineni wabesusa ebukhoneni bakhe. Sedekiya wase uyayivukela inkhosi yaseBhabhulona.
