1UDavida wazakhela izindlu eMzini kaDavida, walungisa nendawo yomfaji kaZimu bewawuhlomela netende.

2Nje-ke wathi: “Akakho namunye ongathwala umfaji kaZimu ngaphandle kwamaLevi ngombana uSomnini wakhetha wona bonyana athwale umfaji kaZimu nokobana alotjhe phambi kwakhe isiphelani.”

3UDavida wahlanganisa woke ama-Israyeli eJerusalema ngombana bekafuna ukuletha umfaji kaZimu eJerusalema lapha gade asele awulungisele khona.

4Wabiza iinzukulwana zaka-Aroni namaLevi bona zihlangane ndawonye:

5emndenini kaKhehathi bekunamadoda alikhulu namatjhumi amabili arholwa ngu-Uriyeli;

6emndenini kaMerari bekunamadoda amakhulu amabili namatjhumi amabili arholwa ngu-Asaya;

7emndenini kaGeritjhomu bekunamadoda alikhulu namatjhumi amathathu arholwa nguJuweli;

8emndenini ka-Elitsafani bekunamadoda amakhulu amabili arholwa nguTjhemaya;

9emndenini kaRhebroni bekunamadoda amatjhumi abunane arholwa ngu-Eliyeli;

10emndenini ka-Uziyeli bekunamadoda alikhulu netjhumi nambili arholwa ngu-Aminadaba.

11Nje-ke uDavida wabiza uTsadokhi no-Abiyatari abaphristi, kanye no-Uriyeli, u-Asaya, uJuweli, uTjhemaya, u-Eliyeli no-Aminadaba amaLevi,

12wathi kibo: “Ngini iinhloko zemindeni yamaLevi. Nje-ke nina nabafowenu amaLevi, zihlambululeni bonyana nilethe umfaji kaSomnini uZimu wakwa-Israyeli lapha ngiwulungiselele khona.

13Ngombana akhange niwuthwale bona niwulethe kwekuthomeni, yeke uSomnini uZimethu usibhokele ngobukhali. Iye, akhange sibuze kuye bona singenza njani njengombana kujanyisiwe.”

14Nje-ke abaphristi namaLevi bazihlambulula ukuze bakhuphule umfaji kaSomnini uZimu wakwa-Israyeli.

15AmaLevi athwala umfaji kaZimu ngeengodo emahlombawo, kwaba njengombana uMosi awayalile ngokuya ngelizwi lakaSomnini.

16Godu uDavida watjela iinhloko zamaLevi bona zikhethe abafowazo ababavumi bonyana bakhalele iingoma zethabo, babethe neenliliswa okumihlobohlobo yamaharibha neewahlo.

17Nje-ke amaLevi akhetha uHemani umsa kaJuweli, u-Asafa umsa kaBherekiya no-Etani umsa kaKhutjhaya. U-Asafa gade angewomndeni kaHemani. U-Etani umfowabo gade angewomndeni kaMerari. Abavumi abathathwaba gade bafanele balilise iiwahlo zekoporo. Isiqhema sesibili naso esimndeni gade kunguZakariya umsa kaJaziyeli, uTjhemiramothi, uJerhiyeli, u-Uni, u-Eliyabu, uBhenaya, uMaseya, uMatitiya, u-Elifelehu, uMikhiniya, u-Obede-Edomu noJehiyeli, abalindi. Esiqhemenesi, uZakariya, uTjhemiramothi, uJerhiyeli, u-Uni, u-Eliyabu, uMaseya noBhenaya gade bafanele balilise amaharibha ngesinara esiphezulu. UMatitiya, u-Elifelehu, uMikhineya, u-Obede-Edomu, uJehiyeli kanye no-Azaziya bekufuze basize ukudlala iharibha elinye elineenara ezibunane.

18UKenaniya ongomunye wabarholi bamaLevi gade amyeleli oqalene nokuthuthwa komfaji. Wanikelwa umsebenzi lo ngombana gade anelemuko lawo.

19UBherekiya no-Elkhana gade babalindi bomfaji.

20Abaphristi uTjhebaniya, uJotjhafathi, uNetaneli, u-Amasayi, uZakariya, uBhenaya no-Eliyezeri gade kufuze bavuthele iimporompita phambi komfaji kaZimu. U-Obede-Edomu noJerhiya nabo gade kufuze babe balindi bomfaji.

21Yeke uDavida nabaphathi bakwa-Israyeli kanye neenduna zekulungwana, bakhamba bayokunyusa umfaji wesivumelwano sakaSomnini endlini ka-Obede-Edomu ngegido elikhulu.

22UZimu wasiza amaLevi kikho koke. AmaLevi agade athutha umfaji wesivumelwano sakaSomnini, enza umhlabelo weenkunzi ezilikhomba namaqama angako.

23UDavida gade ambethe iphuraphura yelineni njengawo woke amaLevi athwala umfaji, nanjengabavumi noKenaniya ogade amyeleli wabavumi abathutha umfaji. Godu uDavida gade aleke ngenaka lobuphristi.

24Nje-ke woke u-Israyeli waletha umfaji wesivumelwano sakaSomnini ngomkhulungwana wehlokomo, ngomdumo wepalapala neporompita, isiwahlo nangeenliliswa zemihlobohlobo yamaharibha.

25Kwathi lokha umfaji wesivumelwano sakaSomnini nawusangena eMzini kaDavida, uMikali indodakazi kaSawula wahlola ngefesidere. Uthe nakabona ikosi uDavida igida ithamba, wayinyaza.
