20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah [a pattern of the last of the manly prophets – who as David remember their God] the son of Jehoiada the priest [the priests who God knows], which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus says God, Why transgress you the commandments of the LORD, that you cannot prosper? because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.
20 Roho ya Mungu ikamjilia juu ya Zekaria [mfano wa manabii wa mwisho wa kiume—ambao kama vile Daudi wanavyomkumbuka Mungu wao] mwana wa Yehoyada kuhani [makuhani ambao Mungu anawajua], aliyesimama juu ya watu, akamwambia. nao, Mungu asema hivi, Mbona mnazihalifu amri za Bwana, hata hamwezi kufanikiwa? kwa sababu mmemwacha BWANA, yeye naye amewaacha ninyi.
