1Ngomnyaka wokuqala wokubusa kukaKurosi inkosi yasePerisiya, ukuba kugcwaliseke ilizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma ngoJeremiya, iNkosi yavusa inhliziyo kaKurosi ukuba amemezele embusweni wakhe wonke, alobe futhi athi:
2Nanti ilizwi likaKurosi inkosi yasePerisiya, lithi: INkosi, uNkulunkulu ophezulu, enginikileyo yonke imibuso yomhlaba, ingilayile ukuyakhela indlu eJerusalema koJuda.Isa 44:28
3Kubo bonke abantu bayo abaphakathi kwenu ngithi uNkulunkulu kabe labo, kabahambe baye eJerusalema koJuda ukwakha indlu yeNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, uNkulunkulu oseJerusalema.
4Bonke abaseleyo, lakuziphi izindawo lapho abahlala khona, kabasizwe ngabantu bendawo yakibo ngesiliva legolide, langempahla, langenkomo, kanye leminikelo yesihle yethempeli eJerusalema.

6Bonke ababehlala labo babasiza ngokubanika izitsha zesiliva langegolide langempahla langenkomo langezipho ezinengi eziligugu, ngaphezu kwalokho okwakunikelwe ngesihle.
