1Kwathi, ekuweleni kukaDavide entabeni, wamkhawulela uTsibha, umkhonzi kaMefibhoshete, emkhawulela, eneemazi zamaesile ezisasazekileyo, ezimakhulu mabini, ethwele phezu kwawo izonka ezimakhulu mabini, nekhulu leediliya ezomisiweyo, nekhulu leezidiliya. Yeziqhamo zasehlotyeni, nendebe yewayini.

2Wathi uYehova kuTsibha, Uthini na ngaloo nto? Wathi uTsibha, Iimazi zamaesile zikulungele ukukhwela endlwini yokumkani; nesonka neziqhamo zasehlotyeni zamadodana; newayini, ukuze basele abatyhafileyo entlango.

3Wathi ukumkani, Uphi na unyana wenkosi yakho? Wathi uTsibha kukumkani, Yabona, uhlala eYerusalem, ngokuba usithi, Namhla indlu kaSirayeli iya kububuyisela kum ubukumkani bukabawo.

4Wathi ukumkani kuTsibha, Uyabona, zonke izinto ezikuMefibhoshete zezakho. Wathi uTsiba, Ndiya kuthandaza ngokuzithoba, ukuba ndibabalwe nguwe, nkosi yam, nkosi yam!

5Wafika ukumkani uDavide eBhahurim, wabona kukho indoda yendlu kaSawule, egama linguShimehi, unyana kaGera;

6Wamxuluba ngamatye uDavide nabakhonzi bonke bokumkani uDavide; bonke abantu namagorha onke babengasekunene kwakhe nangasekhohlo kwakhe.

7Ngoko uShimeyi waqhubeka eqalekisa, esithi: “Hamb’ umke, ndoda yamagazi nenyanisekileyo!

8uYehova wawabuyisela phezu kwakho lonke igazi lendlu kaSawule, owalawula esikhundleni sakhe phezu kwakho; uYehova wabunikela ubukumkani esandleni sika-Abhisalom unyana wakho;

9Wathi ke uAbhishayi unyana kaTseruya kukumkani, Yini na ukuba le nja ifileyo itshabhise ukumkani wam? mandihambe ndimnqumle intloko.

10Wathi uYehova, Yintoni na ingxaki yam kuni, nyana bakaZeruya? makatshabhise, ngokuba uYehova wathi kuye, Mtshabhise uDavide! Ngoko ke ngubani oya kuthi: Kutheni le nto uyenzileyo?

11Wathi uDavide kuAbhishayi nakubakhonzi bakhe bonke, Niyabona, unyana wam owaphuma esizalweni sam ungxamele umphefumlo wam; Unokwenza malini ngoku uBenjamin? makame, aqalekise; ngokuba uYehova ebemwisele umthetho.

12Mhlawumbi uYehova angabukhangela umvandedwa wam, yaye namhla uYehova wondibuyekeza ngesiqalekiso sakhe.

13Ekuhambeni kwexesha uDavide namadoda akhe babehamba ngendlela, uShimehi waqhubeka ehamba phambi kwentaba, esiya ngakuye, yaye njengoko wayehamba wamgibisela ngamatye, emphosa nothuli.

14Ukumkani nabantu bonke ababenaye badinwa, baphumla apho.

15uAbhisalom nabo bonke abantu, amadoda akwaSirayeli, bafika eYerusalem, enoAhitofele.

16Weza uHushayi umAram, umhlobo kaDavide, kuAbhisalom, wathi uHushayi kuAbhisalom, Makasindise ukumkani!

17Wathi uAbhisalom kuHushayi, Kukumthanda kwakho na oku? kutheni ungahambi netshomi yakho?

18Wathi uHushayi kuAbhisalom, Hayi! kodwa lowo amnyulileyo uYehova, nolu hlanga, namadoda onke akwaSirayeli, ndoba ngowakhe, ndihlale naye.

19Kananjalo ndiya kukhonza bani na? Akayi kumkhonza na unyana wakhe? njengoko ndamkhonzayo uyihlo, ndiya kuba nawe ngokunjalo.

20Wathi uAbhisalom kuAhitofele, Thetha into esiya kuyenza.

21Wathi uAhitofele kuAbhisalom, Ngena ezithendeni zikayihlo, abezishiyile ukuba zigcine indlu; eve onke amaSirayeli ukuba umthiyile uyihlo; zandule ke zomelele izandla zabo bonke abanawe.

22Bayimisa intente ka-Abhisalom phezu kwendlu; uAbhisalom wamlandela uyise phambi kwamaSirayeli onke.

23Icebiso lika-Ahitofele, awayelicebisa ngaloo mihla lalifana nomntu obuza ilizwi likaThixo; Icebiso lika-Ahitofele kuDavide noAbhisalom lalinjalo.
