6 Nke a bụ ihe e dere nʼime ya; “Anụla ya na mba niile, Geshem kwukwara otu ihe ahụ, na gị na ndị Juu na-akwado inupu isi. Ọ bụ ya mere i ji na-ewu mgbidi ahụ. Ozi ahụ na-ekwukwa na gị onwe gị na-achọ ịbụ eze ha,

8 Ma eziri m ya ozi sị, “O nweghị eziokwu ọbụla dị nʼihe ị na-ekwu, nʼihi na ha bụ ihe i chepụtara nʼobi gị.”
And I sent! to him saying not it has occurred according to the words these which you [are] saying that from heart your you [are] inventing them.
9 Nzube ha bụ ime ka ụjọ tụọ anyị. Ha na-echekwa sị, “Ha ga-ada mba nʼọrụ a ma hapụkwa ịrụcha ya.” Ma akpọkuru m Chineke sị ya, “Biko gbaa aka m ume.”
For all of them [were] making afraid us saying they will drop hands their from the work and not it will be done and therefore strengthen hands my.
10 Otu ụbọchị, a gara m nʼụlọ Shemaya, nwa Delaya, nwa Mehetabel, onye e mechibidoro ụzọ nʼụlọ ya. Ọ sịrị m, “Ka anyị zukọta nʼụlọ Chineke, nʼime ụlọnsọ, ka anyị mechiekwa ụzọ niile nke ụlọnsọ ahụ, nʼihi na ndị ikom na-abịa igbu gị, e, nʼabalị ka ha na-abịa igbu gị.”
And I I went [the] house of Shemaiah [the] son of Delaiah [the] son of Mehetabel and he [was] shut up and he said let us meet to [the] house of God to [the] middle of the temple and let us close [the] doors of the temple for [people are] coming to kill you and night [people are] coming to kill you.

So that [was] hired he so that I may be afraid and I may act thus and I will sin and it will become for them a name bad so that they may reproach me.
