For nation was destroyed of nation, and citie of citie: for God troubled them with all aduersitie.
7 Isin garuu jabaadhaa; harki keessanis hin laafin; hojiin keessan badhaasa argataatii.”
Be ye strong therefore, and let not your handes be weake: for your worke shall haue a rewarde.
8 Aasaan yommuu dubbii kanaa fi raajii Azaariyaa ilma Oodeed dhagaʼetti ni jajjabaate. Innis waaqota jibbisiisoo harka namaatiin hojjetaman biyya Yihuudaa, Beniyaamii fi magaalaawwan biyya gaaraa Efreem keessatti qabate hunda keessaa balleesse. Iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo kan gardaafoo mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo dura jiru illee ni haaromse.
