uDavide wenza umnqophiso namadoda amakhulu

1Ahlanganisana onke amaSirayeli kuDavide eHebron, athi, Uyabona, singamathambo akho nenyama yakho.

2Kwakudala, oko uSawule ebengukumkani, ibinguwe ububakhupha oonyana bakaSirayeli, ubangenise;

3Aya ke onke amadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli kukumkani eHebron; Wenza umnqophiso nawo uDavide eHebron phambi koYehova; yaye bamthambisa uDavide ukuba abe ngukumkani wakwaSirayeli ngokwelizwi likaYehova ngenkonzo kaSamuweli.

4uDavide namaSirayeli onke beza eYerusalem: yiYebhusi ke leyo; apho abehlala khona amaYebhusi ezweni abekuwo.

5Bathi abemi baseYebhusi kuDavide, Akuyi kungena apha. Noko ke, uDavide wayithimba inqaba yaseZiyon, esisixeko sikaDavide.

6Wathi uDavide, Owathe wawaxabela amaYebhusi kwasentloko, woba yintloko nomlawuli; Kwenyuka kuqala uYowabhi, unyana kaTseruya, waba yinganga.

7uDavide wahlala emboniselweni; ke ngoko bathi, sisixeko sikaDavide.

8Wawakha umzi ngeenxa zonke, ethabathela eMilo ngeenxa zonke;

9uDavide waqhubeka ekhula, kuba uYehova wemikhosi wayenaye.

10Zizo ezi iintloko zamagorha awayekunye nawo uDavide, awamomelezayo ebukumkanini bakhe noSirayeli wonke ukuba amenze ukumkani, ngokwelizwi likaYehova ngokuphathelele uSirayeli.

11Lilo eli inani lamagorha kaDavide; noYasobham, noHagmon, intloko yabathetheli; wajula umkhonto wakhe kumakhulu mathathu lawo abewaxabele kwangoko.

12Ngasemva kwakhe nguEleyazare unyana kaDodo, uMakhi, omnye wamagorha amathathu.

13Yena wayenoDavide ePas-damim, yaye amaFilisti ayehlanganisene khona ukuze alwe, apho intsimi yayizele yirhasi; basaba abantu phambi kwamaFilisti.

14Bazifaka esazulwini sengxowa, bayinikela, bawabulala amaFilisti; uYehova wabahlangula ke usindiso olukhulu.

15Kwehla isithathu sabaziintloko emashumini amathathu, baya eweni kuDavide, emqolombeni waseAdulam; imikhosi yamaFilisti yayimise iintente entilini yamaRafa.

16uDavide yena esenqabeni, bona abalindi bamaFilisti beseBhetelehem.

17Wanqwena uDavide, wathi, Akwaba bendithe ndasela amanzi equla laseBhetelehem elisesangweni!

18Atyhoboza amadoda amathathu empini yamaFilisti, akha amanzi equleni laseBhetelehem elisesangweni, awathabatha awazisa kuDavide; akavuma ukuwasela uDavide; wawaphalazela phambi koYehova;

19Wathi, Akayi kuyenza le nto uThixo wam; Ndiya kulisela na igazi lala madoda abubeke esichengeni ubomi bawo? ngokuba babazisile ngokubeka ubomi babo esichengeni. Yiyo loo nto wayengafuni ukuyisela. Ezi zinto zintathu bazenza ngamandla amakhulu.

20uAbhishayi, umninawa kaYowabhi, waye eyintloko yabathathu.

21Kubo bathathu ubebekeke ngaphezu kwabo bobabini; ngokuba ebengumlawuli wabo; kodwa akafikanga kwabathathu bokuqala.

22NguBhenaya, unyana kaYehoyada, unyana wendoda enobukroti yaseKabhetseli, ewenza imisebenzi emininzi; wabulala iingonyama ezimbini zakwaMowabhi; wabuya wehla, wayibulala ingonyama emhadini, kungekho khephu.

23Wabulala indoda engumYiputa, indoda enexesha elide, ekubhite ezintlanu; esandleni somYiputa lowo ephethe intshuntshe enjengentonga yomluki; Wehla ke waya kuye ephethe intonga, wayihlutha intshuntshe esandleni somYiputa lowo, wambulala ngentshuntshe yakhe.

24Wenjenjalo uBhenaya unyana kaYehoyada; waba nodumo phakathi kwamagorha amathathu.

25Ubebekekile yena phakathi kwamashumi amathathu lawo, kodwa akafikanga kwabathathu bokuqala; uDavide wammisa phezu kwabalindi bakhe.
