1Kwathi ukuvela komnyaka, ngexesha lokuphuma kookumkani, uYowabhi wayeyiphethe impi ephuma umkhosi; walonakalisa ilizwe loonyana baka-Amon, wafika wayingqinga iRabha. UDavide yena wahlala eYerusalem. UYowabhi ke wayichitha iRabha, wayitshabalalisa.
2UDavide wasithabatha isithsaba sokumkani wabo entlokweni yakhe, wasifumana siyitalente• yegolide ubunzima baso, sinamatye anqabileyo; sabekwa entlokweni kaDavide. Waphuma namaxhoba aloo mzi amaninzi kunene.
3Ke abantu ababekhona wabarhola, wabasika ngeesarha, nangezisizilo zesinyithi, nangeempahla ezibukhali zesinyithi. Wenjenjalo uDavide kwimizi yonke yoonyana baka-Amon. Wabuya ke uDavide nabantu bonke, waya eYerusalem.
