1Ngomnyaka wesine kaDariyo ukumkani, ngolwesine lwenyanga yesithoba apho, kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kuZekariya waseKisilevu;

2Bathuma ooSeretsere noRegemeleki namadoda abo endlwini kaThixo, ukuba bathandaze kuYehova;

3bathethe kubabingeleli ababesendlwini kaYehova wemikhosi, nakubaprofeti, bathi, Ndilile na ngenyanga yesihlanu, ndize ndizahlule, njengoko bendisenjenjalo iminyaka engaka?

4Ke kaloku kwafika ilizwi likaYehova wemikhosi kum, lisithi:

5Thetha kubantu bonke belizwe eli, nakubabingeleli, uthi, Enere, oko wakuzila ukudla, walila ngenyanga yesihlanu nangeyesixhenxe, ngaloo minyaka imashumi asixhenxe, ukuzila ukudla ngenxa yam na?

6Xa benisidla nayisela, bekungadli na, bekungàseli nina na?

7Anifanele nikuve na amazwi kaYehova awawathethayo ngabaprofeti bokuqala ekwakhiweni kweYerusalem yaza yaphumelela nakwizixeko eziyingqongileyo, ngoxa abantu babehlala emzantsi naseBalani leBala?

8Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kuZekariya, lisithi:

9Utsho uYehova wemikhosi ukuthi, Thethani inyaniso, niyenzele inceba, niyenzele inceba, elowo kumzalwana wakhe.

10Umhlolokazi nenkedama, nomphambukeli, nehlwempu, uze ungamcinezeli; uze ungathethi kakubi ngomzalwana wakho entliziyweni yakhe.

11Abavumanga ke ukuva, barhola igxalaba labo, bazivala iindlebe zabo, ukuba abeva.

12Ewe, iintliziyo zabo bazenza zanjengelitye, ukuze bangawuva umyalelo namazwi, awawathumelayo uYehova wemikhosi ngomoya wakhe, ngabaprofeti bokuqala; ke ngoko, umsindo omkhulu uvela kuYehova wemikhosi.

13Ke ngoko, xa wabizayo, abeva; ngoko ke bakhwaza, yaye andizange ndiphulaphule, utsho uYehova wemikhosi.

14Kodwa ndabachithachitha ngomoya wesaqhwithi phakathi kweentlanga zonke ababengazazi. Ngenxa yoko ilizwe laba yintlango emva kwabo, ekungacandi mntu kulo, kungabuyi mntu kulo; ngokuba balijika ilizwe elo elihle laba yintlango.
