1Kwathi bona u-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi umsa kaSawula ezwe bona u-Abineri uhlongakalele eRhebroni, waphelelwa mamandla, no-Israyeli woke wesaba. (Ngaphandle kwaka-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi bekunomunye oseleko womndeni kaSawula. Ibizo lakhe bekunguMefi-Bhotjhethi umsa kaJonathani; arholophele iinyawo zombili. Gade aneminyaka emihlanu lokha kufika iindaba zakaSawula noJonathani ezibuya eJizriyela. Imbelesakhe yamdzwebula bona ibaleke naye; kodwana ithe nayithi iyarhaba bona isuke, yawisa umntwana loya, kwaba kurholophala kwakhe-ke njalo.) U-Itjhi-Botjhethi umsa kaSawula bekanamadoda amabili agade abarholi beenqhema zabagongodi. Ibizo lenye bekunguBhana enye kunguRekabi; bebamadodana kaRimoni umBherothi wekoro yakwaBhenjamini. (IBherothi ithathwa njengengcenye yakwaBhenjamini ngombana abantu beBherothi babalekela eGithayimu; baba ziinkhonzi lapho bekwaba namhlanjesi.)

2Kwathi ngelinye ilanga, ngemva kwedina, URekabi noBhana, amadodana kaRimoni umBherothi, aya endlini ka-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi. Ilanga lalitjhisa, u-Itjhi-Botjhethi asathethe isithongwana ngendlini.

3Bangena ngaphakathi endlini kwaba sengathi bazokufuna ikoroyi. Kuthe nabangenako bafunyana u-Ithji-Botjhethi abhambalele embhedeni ngelawini lakhe. Bamhlaba emathunjini bambulala, baquntula ihlokwakhe, babaleka; bakhamba nayo ubusuku boke ngendlela yemrhobeni weJordani.

4Baletha ihloko ka-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi leyo kuDavida eRhebroni bathi kuye: “Nasi ihloko ka-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi, umsa kaSawula, isitha sakho esalinga ukuthatha ukuphila kwakho. Namhlanje, uSomnini uZimu ubuyiselele ikosami kuSawula nesizukulwaneni sakhe.”

5UDavida waphendula uRekabi nomnakwabo uBhana, amadodana kaRimoni umBherothi wathi: “USomnini owangithukulula kiwo woke amatshwenyekwami uyangizwa:

6ETsikhilagi kweza umuntu wangitjela bona uSawula uhlongakele, adlumbana bona uletha iindaba ezihle. Ngamuthi bhi! Ngambulala! Lokho, kwaba mvuzo engamupha wona ngeendaba zakhezo!

7Kungangani-ke engizokwenza ngeenkhohlakali ezibulele umuntu onganamlandu ngendlinakhe phezu kombhedakhe? Nje-ke, nizokuhlawula ipilwakhe ngeengazi zenu. Ngizonihlukanisa namabele!”

8UDavida walayela iinceku zakhe bona zibabulale. Zabaquntula izandla neenyawo, zaphanyeka iindumbu zabo hlanu kwelitsha eRhebroni. Kodwana zathatha ihloko ka-Itjhi-Bhotjhethi zayingcwaba ezindleni laka-Abineri eRhebroni.
