1Zafika ke zonke izizwe zakwaSirayeli kuDavide eHebron, zathi, Uyabona, singamathambo akho nenyama yakho.

2Ngaphambili, oko uSawule ebengukumkani wethu, ibinguwe ebebakhupha oonyana bakaSirayeli, ubangenise; wathi uYehova kuwe, Wena uya kubanyamekela abantu bam amaSirayeli, wena ube ngumlawuli kwaSirayeli.

3Aya ke onke amadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli kukumkani eHebron; Ukumkani uDavide wenza umnqophiso nawo eHebron, phambi koYehova; amthambisa uDavide ukuba abe ngukumkani wakwaSirayeli.

4uDavide ubeminyaka imashumi mathathu ezelwe, ukuba ngukumkani kwakhe; waba neminyaka emashumi mane engukumkani.

5uHebron wayengukumkani kwaYuda iminyaka esixhenxe neenyanga ezintandathu; yaye iYerusalem yalawula iminyaka engamashumi amathathu anesithathu kuSirayeli wonke noYuda.

6Waza ukumkani namadoda akhe baya eYerusalem kumaYebhusi abengabemi belizwe, bathetha kuDavide, bathi, Ukuba uthe akwasusa iimfama neziqhwala, akuyi kungena apha.

7uDavide wayithimba inqaba yaseZiyon; sisixeko sikaDavide.

8Wathetha uDavide ngaloo mini, wathi, Bonke abaya kukhwela emhadini, babulale amaYebhusi, neziqhwala, neemfama, abathiyiweyo entliziyweni kaDavide, ngabo aba yintloko nentloko; Bathi ngoko, Iimfama neziqhwala azinakungena endlwini.

9uDavide waya kuhlala kuloo nqaba, wayibiza ngokuba sisiXeko sikaDavide. Wazakha uDavide yonke into esuka eMilo naphakathi kwelizwe.

10uDavide waqhubeka ekhula, yaye uYehova, uThixo wemikhosi, wayenaye.

11uHiram, ukumkani waseTire, wathumela abathunywa kuDavide, nemisedare, neengcibi zemithi, neengcibi zamatye, bamakhela indlu uDavide.

12uDavide waqonda ukuba uYehova unyule yena ukuba abe ngukumkani kwaSirayeli nokuba wayebuphakamisile ubukumkani bakhe ngenxa yabantu bakhe amaSirayeli.

13uDavide wabuya wazeka abafazi nabafazi eYerusalem, ekundulukeni kwakhe eHebron, uDavide wazala abanye oonyana neentombi.

14Ngawo la amagama abazalelwe eYerusalem; uSamuwa, noShobhabhe, noNatan, noSolomon;

15noIbhare, noElishuwa, noNefege, noYafiya;

16noElishama, noEliyada, noElifeleti.

17Xa amaFilisti evayo ukuba babemthambisile uDavide ukuba abe ngukumkani wakwaSirayeli, onke amaFilisti enyuka esiya kufuna uDavide; Weva ke uDavide, wehla waya entabeni enqatyisiweyo.

18Afika amaFilisti, athana mbende entilini yamaRafa.

19Wabuza uDavide kuYehova, esithi, Ndihambe ndiye na kumaFilisti? Ngaba uya kuwanikela esandleni sam? Wathi uYehova kuDavide, Yima, ngokuba ndiya kuwanikela okunene amaFilisti esandleni sakho.

20Weza uDavide eBhahali-perasim; wahlala khona uDavide kubo, wathi, uYehova undityhoboze njengomlambo, esilwa neentshaba zam phambi kwam ngenxa yoko wathi igama laloo ndawo yiBhahali-peratsim.

21Bayishiya apho imifanekiso yabo eqingqiweyo; uDavide namadoda akhe bayitshisa;

22Aphinda enyuka amaFilisti, athana mbende entilini yamaRafa.

23uDavide wabuza kuYehova, esithi, Musa ukunyuka; kodwa niwajikeleze ngasemva nize niwahlasele ngasemithini yamaqunube.

24Kwaye kuthiwa ukuba usiva isandi sokunyathelwa phezu kwemithi yommirtile, ngoko uya konwaba; ngokuba ngoku uYehova uya kunikhokelela ekuxabeleni izintlu zamaFilisti.

25Wenza uDavide njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho; yaye wawaxabela amaFilisti ukususela eGebha ukuya kutsho eGezere.
