10 Yaza intliziyo kaDavide yambetha+ emva kokuba ebabalile abantu. Ngoko wathi uDavide kuYehova: “Ndonile+ kakhulu ngoko ndikwenzileyo. Ke kaloku, Yehova, khawuncede, usidlulise isiphoso somkhonzi wakho;+ kuba ndenze ngobudenge obukhulu.”+

15 Wandula ke uYehova wathumela indyikitya yokufa+ kwaSirayeli ukususela kusasa kwada kwalixesha elimisiweyo, kangangokuba kwafa ebantwini ukususela kwaDan ukusa eBher-shebha+ amashumi asixhenxe amawaka abantu.+

12 enoba yiminyaka emithathu yendlala;+ okanye ziinyanga ezintathu zokuba utshayelwe phambi kweentshaba zakho+ nokuba ufikelwe likrele leentshaba zakho, okanye iintsuku ezintathu zekrele likaYehova,+ kwanendyikitya yokufa,+ elizweni, ingelosi kaYehova iwonakalise+ wonke ummandla kaSirayeli.’ Ke kaloku bona ukuba ndifanele ndimphendule ndithini na Lowo undithumileyo.”
