Vakatakurira bhokisi raMwari rechitenderano pachikochikari chitsva. Vakariburitsa mumba maAbhinadhabhu yaiva pachikomo. Vanakomana vaAbhinadhabhu, vanaUza naAhio ndovaichaira chikochikari chitsva ichi. Chaiva nebhoksi raMwari rechitenderano Ahio ndiye ainge akatungamirira mberi kwebhokisi rechitenderano. Dhavhidhi nemhuri yose yeIsiraeri vaifara vachipemberera Tenzi napose pavaigonera nedzimbo vaine zvokuridza zvakavezwa zvomuti womusaipurasi kuchiti: uku runoridza zvipendani, uku rumwe runoridza madimbwa, vamwe vachiridza ngoma, vamwe vachiridza makwakwakwa omuti neesimbi.

Kuurayiwa kwakaitwa Uza naTenzi kwakashungurudza Dhavhidhi. Nzvimbo iyi inonzi Pereziuza nanhasi uno. Musi iwoyu, Dhavhidhi akatya Tenzi akati, “Zvino bhokisi raTenzi rechitenderano, kwangu uku, ringasvike sei pakadai?” Nokudaro Dhavhidhi akaramba kuenda nebhokisi raTenzi rechitenderano kuGuta raDhavhidhi. Asi Dhavhidhi akatsaukira naro mumusha waObhedhiedhomu muGiti. Bhokisi raTenzi rechitenderano rakagara mumba maObhedhiedhomu muGiti kwemwedzi mitatu.
