UJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe wayesemnikela esandleni senkosi yase - Aramu, bamshaya, bathumba kuye isixuku esikhulu sabathunjwa , babayisa eDamaseku. Naye wanikelwa esandleni senkosi yakwa -Israyeli eyamshaya ngokushaya okukhulu.

Wayesesuka u -Ishmayeli indodana kaNethaniya namadoda ayi shumi ayenaye, bamshaya uGedaliya indodana ka -Ahikamu kaShafani ngenkemba , bambulala, yena inkosi yaseBabele ebimenze umbusi ezweni.

Khona bonke bambamba uSostene umphathi wesinagoge, bamshaya phambi kwesihlalo sokwahlulela; kodwa uGaliyu akaze anaka lutho lwalokho.
