UDavida wenza isivumelwano labadala
1Wonke u-Israyeli wabuthana kuDavide eHebroni, wathi: “Bheka, siyithambo lakho nenyama yakho.
2Futhi nasendulo, lapho uSawule eseyinkosi, nguwe owawukhipha u-Israyeli futhi ungenisa;
3Ngalokho onke amalunga akwa-Israyeli eza enkosini eHebroni; uDavide wenza isivumelwano nabo eHebroni phambi kukaJehova; bamgcoba uDavide abe yinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli njengezwi likaJehova ngesandla sikaSamuweli.
4UDavide naye wonke u-Israyeli baya eJerusalema eliyiJebusi; lapho ayekhona amaJebusi, ayakhe kulelo zwe.
5Abakhileyo eJebusi bathi kuDavide: “Awuyikuza lapha. Nokho, uDavide wathatha inqaba yaseSiyoni, engumuzi kaDavide.
6UDavida wasesithi: Onqoba amaJebusi kuqala uzakuba yinhloko lombusi. Ngakho uJowabe indodana kaSeruya wenyuka kuqala, waba yinhloko.
7UDavide wahlala enqabeni; ngalokho bawubiza ngokuthi umuzi kaDavide.
8Wakha umuzi nxazonke kusukela eMilo nxazonke, uJowabe walungisa okuseleyo komuzi.
9UDavide waqhubeka eba mkhulu ngokuba mkhulu, ngokuba uJehova Sebawoti wayenaye.
10Laba babe yizinhloko zamaqhawe uDavide ayenazo, aziqinisa naye embusweni wakhe kanye no-Israyeli wonke ukumbeka inkosi njengezwi likaJehova ngo-Israyeli.
11Lesi yisibalo samaqhawe kaDavide; uJasobham, umHagimoni, inhloko yezikhulu; waphakamisela umkhonto wakhe phezu kwamakhulu amathathu abawahlula kanyekanye.
12Emva kwakhe kwakungu-Eleyazare indodana kaDodo umAhohi owayengomunye wamaqhawe amathathu.
13WayenoDavide ePhasi-Damimi; amaFilisti ayebuthene khona ukulwa, lapho isiqinti sezwe sasigcwele ibhali; abantu babaleka phambi kwamaFilisti.
14Bazifaka phakathi kwaleyo mpahla, bayinikela, bawabulala amaFilisti; uJehova wabakhulula ngokusindisa okukhulu.
15Kwehla abathathu kwabayizikhulu ezingamashumi amathathu, baya etsheni kuDavide emhumeni wase-Adulamu; impi yamaFilisti yayikanise esigodini samaRefa.
16UDavide wayesenqabeni, nempi yamaFilisti ngaleso sikhathi yayiseBetlehema.
17UDavide walangazelela, wathi: “O, uma umuntu bengiyakungiphuzisa amanzi omthombo waseBetlehema ongasesangweni!
18Labo abathathu bafohla impi yamaFilisti, baka amanzi emthonjeni waseBhetelehem owawusesangweni, bawathatha, bawayisa kuDavide; kepha uDavide akavumanga ukuwaphuza, wawathululela kuJehova;
19wathi: “Makube kude noNkulunkulu wami ukuba ngenze lokho; ngiyakuphuza igazi lalaba bantu ababeka ukuphila kwabo engozini na? ngoba baletha ukuphila kwabo engozini. Yingakho engafuni ukuwaphuza. Lezi zinto zenza lezi zinto ezintathu ngamandla amakhulu.
20U-Abishayi umfowabo kaJowabe wayeyinhloko yabathathu;
21Kulaba abathathu wayetusekile kunalaba ababili; ngoba wayengumbusi wabo; kodwa akafinyelelanga kwabathathu bokuqala.
22UBenaya indodana kaJoyada indodana yendoda enesibindi waseKabiseyeli, owenza izenzo eziningi; wabulala izingonyama ezimbili zakwaMowabi; wehla, wabulala ingonyama emphandwini ngosuku lweqhwa.
23Wabulala nowaseGibithe, umuntu omude, eyizingalo eziyisihlanu; esandleni sowaseGibithe kwakukhona umkhonto onjengogongolo lomaluki; wehlela kuye ephethe induku, wahlwitha umkhonto esandleni sowaseGibithe, wambulala ngomkhonto wakhe.
24UBenaya indodana kaJoyada wenze njalo, waba negama phakathi kwamaqhawe amathathu.
25Bheka, wayetuseka phakathi kwabangamashumi amathathu, kepha akafikanga kwabathathu bokuqala; uDavide wammisa phezu kwabalindi bakhe.
