3Jalo a ya a tsaya Gomere morwadia Dibelaime; mme a ima, a bona nae ngwana wa mosimane. 4Jehofa a mo raya a re: “Mo reye leina o re: ‘Jesereele’; gonne ke tlaa re kwa pelenyana, ke lefetse madi a Jesereele mo ntlong ya ga Jehu, ke be ke khutlise bogosi jwa ntlo ya Iseraele. 5Go tlaa dirala mo motlheng oo, go re, ke tlaa roba bora jwa ba Iseraele mo molapong wa Jesereele.”
6Mme a ba a ima gape, a belega ngwana wa mosetsana.
