2 Naizvozvo Hezekiya akavafarira,+ akavaratidza imba yake yepfuma,+ sirivha nendarama nemafuta ebharisamu+ nemafuta akanaka neimba yezvombo+ zvake zvose nezvose zvaiva papfuma yake. Hapana chinhu chavasina kuratidzwa naHezekiya muimba yake+ uye munzvimbo yake yose yaaitonga.+

6 ‘Tarira! Mazuva achauya, uye zvose zviri mumba mako nezvakaunganidzwa nemadzitateguru ako kusvikira nhasi zvichaendeswa kuBhabhironi.’+ ‘Hapana chichasiyiwa,’+ Jehovha adaro.
7 ‘Vamwe vanakomana vako vachabuda mauri, vauchabereka, vachatorwa+ uye vachava machinda+ mumuzinda wamambo weBhabhironi.’”+
8 Hezekiya akabva ati kuna Isaya: “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.”+ Akatizve: “Nokuti rugare nechokwadi+ zvicharamba zviripo mumazuva angu.”+
