Umphrofethi wayesethi kuye: “Nami ngingumphrofethi njengawe, kodwa kukhulume ingelosi kaNkulunkulu, yathi: ‘Mbuyise nawe, eze endlini yakho ukuze athole isinkwa, aphuze namanzi.’ ” Kepha umphrofethi wayeqamba amanga.

Inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yayisiqoqa abaphrofethi abathi ababe ngama-400, yathi kubo: “Ngihambe yini ngiyokulwa neRamothi Gileyadi, noma ngiliyeke na?” Bathi: “Yenyuka, ngokuba uSimakade uyakulinikela esandleni senkosi.”
Njengamafu nomoya ngaphandle kwemvula, unjalo umuntu ozincoma ngesipho angasiphiwanga.
Abaphristi nabaphrofethi bacwile shi ezinkambeni, babona imibono eyize, bakhubeke ekwehluleleni. Labo ababhukuda ewayinini, babhamazeliswa wuphuzo olunamandla.
USimakade wayesethi kimi: “Abaphrofethi baphrofetha amanga egameni lami. Angibathumanga, angibamisanga futhi angikhulumanga kubo. Baphrofetha kini imibono engamanga, nokubhula, nokuyize, nenkohliso yezingqondo zabo.
Ngibone into embi kubaphrofethi baseJerusalema; bayaphinga, bahamba ngobuqili, bakhuthaza abenza okubi ukuze kungaphenduki muntu ebubini bakhe; bonke banjengeSodoma kimi, nezakhamuzi zakhona zinjengeGomora.”
Bakhuluma njalo bethi kwabangidelelayo: uSimakade ukhulume wathi: ‘Niyakuba nokuthula.’ Bathi kubo bonke abahamba ngenkani yenhliziyo yabo: ‘Aniyukwehlelwa yinhlekelele.’
“Ngizwile ukuthi bathini abaphrofethi abaphrofetha amanga egameni lami, bethi: ‘Ngiphuphile, ngiphuphile.’
Bheka, ngimelene nabaphrofethi abaphupha amanga,” kusho uSimakade, “bawalandise, badukise abantu bami ngamanga abo nangobudedengu babo. Mina-ke angibathumanga, angibayalanga, futhi ababasizanga ngalutho laba bantu,” kusho uSimakade.
Umphrofethi uJeremiya wayesethi kuHananiya, umphrofethi: “Ake ulalele, Hananiya, uSimakade akakuthumanga, kodwa wena usuwenze laba bantu bethembela emangeni.
Abaphrofethi baphrofetha amanga, abaphristi babusa njengoba beyalwa ngabaphrofethi. Abantu bami bathanda khona lokho, kodwa bayokwenzenjani uma kufika ukuphela na?”
Abaphrofethi bakho bakutshele imibono engamanga newubuwula, abakuvezanga obala ukuphambuka kwakho ukuze uphenduke, ungayi ekuthunjweni. Bakutshele imibono engamanga neyinkohliso.
Ngokuba nidabukise inhliziyo yolungileyo ngamanga; Mina angizange ngimdabukise; niqinise izandla zezikhohlakali ukuze zingaphenduki endleleni yazo embi, zisindiswe.
Abakhalanga kimi ngenhliziyo yabo, kodwa bahhewula emibhedeni yabo; babuthana ngenxa yokusahlamvu newayini elisha, bangifulathela Mina.
Izinhloko zalo zehlulela ngokugwazelwa, abaphristi balo bafundisa ngenxa yokukhokhelwa, nabaphrofethi babhula ngenxa yesiliva, bethembele kuSimakade, bethi: “Akekho yini phakathi kwethu uSimakade na?” Asiyukwehlelwa yinhlekele.
Usho kanje uSimakade: “Ngabaphrofethi abadukisa abantu bami, abaluma ngamazinyo abo, bamemeze bathi: ‘Ukuthula,’ kuthi lowo ongabeki lutho emlonyeni wabo bavivele ukumthelekela ngempi.
ngokuba abanjalo abayizo izikhonzi zeNkosi yethu uKhristu, kepha bakhonza isisu sabo; kuthi ngamazwi ashelelayo nathophayo badukise izinhliziyo zabangenacala.
Isiphetho sabo ngukubhujiswa; abankulunkulu wabo yizisu zabo, nodumo lwabo lungukwenza ihlazo; bacabanga ngezinto zomhlaba kuphela.
Bathandekayo, ningakholwa yibo bonke omoya, kodwa bahloleni omoya ukuthi ngabe bangabakaNkulunkulu yini. Ngokuba baningi abaphrofethi bamanga abaphumele ezweni.
