1Wongeza uAhitofele, wathi kuAbhisalom, Makhe ndinyule ishumi elinesibini lamawaka amadoda, ndime, ndibaleke kuDavide ngobu busuku;

2Ndiya kumhlasela atyhafile, nezandla zakhe zityhafile, ndimoyikise; basabe bonke abantu anabo; yaye ndiya kumoyisa ukumkani kuphela;

3ndibabuyisele kuwe bonke abantu; umntu omfunayo usengathi babuyile bonke; ngoko bonke abantu baya kuba noxolo.

4Yalunga loo nto emehlweni ka-Abhisalom nasemehlweni amadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli.

5Wathi uAbhisalom, Bizani uHushayi umAram, sive ukuba uya kuthini na ukuthetha kwakhe.

6Weza uHushayi kuAbhisalom, wathetha uAbhisalom kuye, wathi, Utsho uAhitofele ukuthi; Senze ngokwelizwi lakhe na? Ukuba akukho njalo; uthi.

7Wathi uHushayi kuAbhisalom, Icebo uAhitofele acebisa lona alilungile okwangoku.

8Wathi uHusayi, Uyamazi uyihlo namadoda akhe, ukuba bakhohlakele, batyumkile intliziyo, njengebhere ewahlutha amathole ayo endle; kwaye uyihlo yindoda yemfazwe, akafuni kulala nabantu.

9Yabona, uzimele komnye umngxuma, nokuba kukwenye indawo; kothi ke, xa bathe bafika kuqala, bonke abavileyo bathi, Kukho ukubulawa kwabantu abamlandelayo uAbhisalom.

10Kwaye kwanendoda eligorha entliziyo injengentliziyo yengonyama, iya kutshata ngokupheleleyo; ngenxa yokuba wonke uSirayeli uyazi ukuba uyihlo ligorha, yaye abo bakunye naye ngamadoda anamandla.

11Ngoko ke ndicebisa ukuba onke amaSirayeli ahlanganisene kuwe, ethabathela kwaDan esa eBher-shebha, abe yintabalala yentlabathi yam nonxweme lolwandle; nokuba uhambe wedwa edabini.

12Somkhawulela ke kuloo ndawo aya kufunyanwa kuyo, siwe phezu kwakhe, njengokuwa kombethe emhlabeni; akusayi kusala yena nakumadoda onke anaye.

13Ngaphezu koko, ukuba ithe yahlala esixekweni, onke amaSirayeli ozisa iintsontelo kweso sixeko, size sibarhuqele emlanjeni de kungafumaneki nalinye ilitye elincinane.

14Wathi ke uAbhisalom namadoda onke akwaSirayeli, Icebo likaHushayi umAram lilungile kunecebo lika-Ahitofele. Kuba uYehova wayezimisele ukutshabalalisa icebo elilungileyo lika-Ahitofele, ngenjongo yokuba uYehova amzisele intlekele uAbhisalom.

15Wathi uHushayi kuTsadoki nakuAbhiyatare ababingeleli, uAhitofele umcebisa ngale ndlela uAbhisalom namadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli; kwaye ndinike iingcebiso.

16Thumelani ke kamsinya, nixelele uDavide, nithi, Musa ukulalisa enkqantosini; hleze adle ukumkani nabantu bonke abanaye.

17uYonatan noAkimatse bahlala e-Enerogel; kuba azabonakala ekungeneni kwawo esixekweni baya baxelela ukumkani uDavide.

18Umfana wababona, waxelela uAbhisalom; Bakhawuleza bobabini, bafika eBhahurim endlwini yendoda enequla eyadini yayo; apho bawela khona.

19Yasithabatha inkazana isigqubuthelo, yasitwabulula phezu komnyango wequla, yasitwabulula ingqolowa egcadiweyo; ityala lalingaziwa.

20Bafika abakhonzi baka-Abhisalom kuloo ntokazi endlwini, bathi, Baphi na ooAhimaheyu noYonatan? Yathi intokazi kubo, Welani umlambo; Bafuna, abazifumana, babuyela eYerusalem.

21Banduluka, benyuka baya equleni, bamxelela ukumkani uDavide, bathi kuDavide, Khawuyeke, ukha amanzi kamsinya; ngokuba uAhitofele ucebe icebo ngani.

22Emveni koko bagqiba ke ooDavide namadoda onke abenaye, bayiwela iYordan;

23Uthe uAhitofele akubona ukuba icebo lakhe alilandelwa, wabopha idonki yakhe, wesuka waya endlwini yakhe, esixekweni sakowabo, wayilungisa indlu yakhe, wazixhoma, wafa, wangcwatyelwa engcwabeni likayise.

24uDavide wafika eMahanayim. uAbhisalom wayiwela iYordan namadoda onke akwaSirayeli.

25uAbhisalom wammisa uAmasa ukuba abe yingqwayi-ngqwayi esikhundleni sikaYowabhi; uAmasa ebengunyana wendoda egama linguYitra, engumSirayeli, eyangena noAbhigali, intombi kaNahashe, udade boTseruya, unina kaYowabhi.

26Oonyana bakaSirayeli noAbhisalom bamisa iintente ezweni laseGiliyadi.

27Wafika uDavide eMahanayim, enoSobhi unyana kaNahashe, waseRabha yoonyana baka-Amon, noMagire unyana ka-Amiyeli, eLodebhare, noBharzilayi waseGiliyadi, waseRogelim;

28Yiza nezingqengqelo, neengqayi, neengqayi, nerhasi, nomgubo, nengqolowa egcadiweyo, neembotyi, neelentile, nengqolowa egcadiweyo;

29nobusi, nebhotolo, nempahla emfutshane, namasi eenkomo, kuDavide nakubantu ababenaye ukuba badle; ngokuba bathi, Abantu balambile, badiniwe, banxaniwe entlango.
