20 Ngemnyaka iNkhosi Sagoni yase-Asiriya leyatfumela ngawo Tharithani* e-Ashdodi, yalwa ne-Ashdodi+ futsi yayincoba.+
2 Ngaleso sikhatsi, Jehova wakhuluma na-Isaya+ indvodzana ya-Amozi, watsi: “Hamba uyokhumula lendvwangu yelisaka leselukhalo lakho bese ukhumula naletincabule letisetinyaweni takho.” Isaya wavele wenta njalo, wahambahamba angakagcoki kangako* futsi angakafaki lutfo etinyaweni.
3 Jehova wabese utsi: “Njengobe nje inceku yami Isaya beyisolo ihambahamba ingakagcoki kangako futsi ingakafaki lutfo etinyaweni iminyaka lemitsatfu, kuze kube luphawu+ nesibonakaliso lesimelene neGibhithe+ kanye neTopiya,+
4 ngaleyondlela inkhosi yase-Asiriya itawuhola bantfu labatfunjiwe baseGibhithe+ nebakhoseli baseTopiya, lokubafana nemakhehla, labangakagcoki kangako futsi bahamba ngetinyawo netibunu tabo tisebaleni, lokulihlazo leGibhithe.
5 Batakwesaba futsi batativa bahlazekile ngenca yeTopiya lelitsemba labo nangeGibhithe leligcabho* labo.
6 Ngalelolanga bantfu labahlala kulolugu batawutsi, ‘Asenibuke kutsi kwentekeni kulelitsemba letfu lesabalekela kulo sayofuna lusito nesivikelo, sibalekela inkhosi yase-Asiriya! Sesitawuphunyula njani-ke nyalo?’”
