17 Awo Yekoyaada ng’amaze okufa, abakungu ba Yuda ne bajja ne bavuunamira kabaka, n’abawuliriza. 18 (A)Ne baleka yeekaalu ya Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe, ne baweerezanga Baasera n’ebifaananyi, obusungu bwa Katonda kyebwava bubuubuukira ku Yuda ne Yerusaalemi. 19 (B)Newaakubadde nga Mukama yabatumira bannabbi okubakomyawo gy’ali, ne babalumiriza, tebassaayo mwoyo.

21 (D)Naye ne basala olukwe okutta Zekkaliya, kabaka n’alagira n’akubibwa amayinja, n’afiira mu luggya lwa yeekaalu ya Mukama. 22 (E)Kabaka Yowaasi n’atajjukira kisa Yekoyaada kitaawe wa Zekkaliya kye yamulaga, n’atta mutabani we. Zekkaliya bwe yali ng’afa n’ayogera nti, “Mukama kino akirabe, era akuvunaane.”

Ne bajja mu Yuda ne mu Yerusaalemi ne bazikiriza abakungu bonna, ne baweereza omunyago gwonna eri kabaka waabwe e Ddamasiko. 24 (G)Newaakubadde ng’eggye ery’Abasuuli ly’ajja n’abasajja batono, Mukama yawaayo eggye eddene ennyo erya Yuda mu mukono gw’Abasuuli kubanga Yuda baava ku Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe.

6 (A)Awo mu biseera ebyo abakkiriza bwe baagenda beeyongera obungi, ne wabaawo okwemulugunya mu Bakerenisiti ku Baebbulaniya nti bannamwandu baabwe basosolwa, ne bataweebwa kyenkanyi. 2 Awo ekkumi n’ababiri ne bakuŋŋaanya ekibiina ky’abayigirizwa, ne babagamba nti, “Kirungi ebiseera byaffe tubimalire ku kubuulira Njiri, so si mu kugabanya mmere. 3 (B)Noolwekyo, abooluganda, mwerondemu abasajja musanvu, abasiimibwa abantu, ng’abantu b’amagezi, era abajjudde Mwoyo Mutukuvu, tubakwase omulimu ogwo. 4 (C)Ffe tulyoke twemalire ku kusaba, n’okubuulira n’okuyigiriza.”

51 (A)“Mmwe abalina ensingo enkakanyavu, abatakomolebwanga mu mutima wadde amatu, muwakanya Mwoyo Mutukuvu bulijjo; era bajjajjammwe nga bwe baali, nammwe bwe mutyo bwe muli. 52 (B)Nnabbi ki bajjajjammwe gwe bataayigganya? Batta n’abo abaalangirira okujja kw’Omutuukirivu, gwe mwalyamu olukwe ne mumutta. 53 (C)Mmwe mwaweebwa amateeka nga bwe gaalagirwa bamalayika naye ne mutagagondera.”
