31 Ntimugakorere ibyo bintu Yehova Imana yanyu, kuko ibintu byose bakorera imana zabo Yehova abyanga cyane. Bahora batwika abahungu babo n’abakobwa babo babatura imana zabo.+

16 Mu mwaka wa 17 w’ubutegetsi bwa Peka umuhungu wa Remaliya, Ahazi+ umuhungu wa Yotamu umwami w’u Buyuda yagiye ku butegetsi.

3 Yakoze ibibi nk’iby’abami ba Isirayeli,+ anatwika umuhungu we,+ akora n’ibindi bintu by’amahano byakorwaga n’abantu bo mu bihugu+ Yehova yari yarirukanye kugira ngo abituzemo Abisirayeli.

17 Nanone batwikaga abahungu babo n’abakobwa babo,+ bagakora ibikorwa by’ubupfumu+ n’ibikorwa byo kuraguza kandi bari bariyemeje* gukora ibyo Yehova yanga kugira ngo bamurakaze.

18 Ibyo byatumye Yehova arakarira Abisirayeli cyane arabanga.+ Yabirukanye muri icyo gihugu ntiyemera ko hagira n’umwe usigara, uretse abo mu muryango wa Yuda.

30 Yehova aravuga ati: ‘abantu bo mu Buyuda, bakoze ibyo nanga. Bashyize ibigirwamana byabo biteye iseseme mu nzu yitirirwa izina ryanjye kugira ngo bayihumanye.+ 31 Bubatse ahantu hirengeye i Tofeti mu Kibaya cy’Umuhungu wa Hinomu,*+ kugira ngo bahatwikire abahungu babo n’abakobwa babo,+ icyo kikaba ari ikintu ntigeze mbategeka kandi ntigeze ntekereza.’*+

20 Oya, si cyo nshatse kuvuga. Ahubwo nshatse kuvuga ko ibyo abantu batazi Imana batambaho ibitambo, batabitambira Imana ahubwo babitambira abadayimoni,+ kandi sinshaka ko musangira n’abadayimoni.+
