Kodvwa ngicela umane uphephise imphilo yami!”
15Ingilosi yaSimakadze yakhuluma ku-Elija, yatsi: “Yehla naye, ungamesabi.” Ngako Elija wasukuma wehla naye, waya enkhosini.
16Wafike watjela inkhosi, watsi: “Naku lokukhulunywa nguSimakadze, utsi: ‘Kungobe kute yini Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli kutsi ungaze utfumele uyewubuta kuBhalzebubi, nkulunkulu wase-Ekroni? Njengobe wente loku, ungeke usuke kulombhedze lolele kuwo. Nakanjani utakufa!’ ”
