7 UDavida wathi ekuzwa lokhu wathuma uJowabi lebutho lonke kanye lamaqhawe akhe ayewathembile.+ 8 Ama-Amoni aphuma ayakuma egedini ledolobho elungele ukulwa. AmaSiriya aseZobha leRehobhi lamabutho e-Ishithobi* leMahakha wona ayewodwa emagcekeni egangeni.

8 Nanka amabizo amaqhawe kaDavida alamandla:+ UJoshebi-bhashebhethi umThakhemoni owayengumkhokheli wabathathu.+ Wabulala abantu abangu-800 ngomkhonto ngasikhathi sinye.
