mlosi Yehu, mwana wa Hanani, anatuluka kukakumana naye ndipo anati kwa mfumu, “Kodi nʼkoyenera kuthandiza oyipa ndi kukonda iwo amene amadana ndi Yehova? Chifukwa cha zimenezi mkwiyo wa Yehova uli pa inu.
3 Nanso ade pa bi wɔ wo mu, efisɛ woatutu Asera nnua a ɛwɔ asase no so nyinaa, na woatu wo ho asi hɔ sɛ wobɛhwehwɛ Onyankopɔn.”
Komabe, muli zinthu zina zabwino mwa inu, pakuti inu mwachotsa mʼdziko muno mafano a Asera ndipo mwakhazikitsa mtima wanu pa kufunafuna Mulungu.”

Ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Muganize bwino zimene mukuchita, chifukwa simukuweruza mʼmalo mwa munthu koma Yehova, amene ali nanu pamene mukupereka chiweruzo.
7 Munsuro Awurade, na mummu atɛntrenee, efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, kyi ntɛnkyew, nhwɛanim ne kɛtɛasehyɛ.”
Tsopano kuopsa kwa Yehova kukhale pa inu. Muweruze mosamala, pakuti ndi Yehova Mulungu wathu palibe kupotoza chilungamo kapena kukondera kapenanso kulandira ziphuphu.”

9 Ɔhyɛɛ wɔn se, “Daa, momfa onyamesuro, nokware ne adwene pa nyɛ mo adwuma.
Iye anawalamula kuti, “Inu mutumikire mokhulupirika ndi mtima wanu wonse moopa Yehova.
10 Bere biara a asɛm bi a efi mo nkurɔfo a wɔwɔ nkurow yi so bɛba mo anim no, sɛ ɛyɛ awudi anaa Onyankopɔn mmara anaa nʼahyɛde sobu no, mommɔ wɔn kɔkɔ sɛ, wɔnnyɛ bɔne ntia Awurade, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a nʼabufuw remma mo ne wɔn so. Monyɛ saa, na morenni fɔ.
Pa mlandu uliwonse wobwera kwa inu kuchokera kwa abale anu amene amakhala mʼmizinda, mlandu wokhetsa magazi kapena mlandu wosamvera malamulo kapena malangizo kapena ziphunzitso zina, inu muziwachenjeza kuti asachimwire Yehova pakuti mukapanda kutero mkwiyo wake udzakhala pa inu ndi abale anu. Chitani zimenezi ndipo simudzachimwa.
11 “Ɔsɔfopanyin Amaria bɛyɛ mo panyin, na ɔkasa a obi nka bi bio wɔ nsɛm a ɛfa Awurade ho nyinaa. Ismael babarima Sebadia nso na otua Yuda abusuakuw ano no.

“Amariya, mkulu wa ansembe adzakhala wokuyangʼanirani pa zonse zokhudza Yehova, ndipo Zebadiya mwana wa Ismaeli, mtsogoleri wa fuko la Yuda, adzakhala wokuyangʼanirani pa zonse zokhudza mfumu ndipo Alevi adzatumikira ngati okuyangʼanirani. Muchite molimba mtima ndipo Yehova akhale ndi iwo amene adzachita bwino.”
