22 Ngenxa yoko ngokubhekele phaya babuza+ kuYehova: “Uselefikile na apha umntu lowo?” Wathi ke uYehova: “Nankuya, uzifihle+ phakathi kwempahla.”

22 Ngoko nangoko uDavide washiya impahla+ yakhe esandleni somgcini wempahla+ waza wabaleka waya kuluhlu lwedabi. Xa wafikayo, wabuzisa ngentlalo-ntle yabantakwabo.+

13 Ngoko nangoko uDavide wathi kumadoda akhe: “Bhinqani elowo ikrele lakhe!”+ Ngoko babhinqa elowo ikrele lakhe noDavide wabhinqa elakhe ikrele; baza benyuka emva koDavide, amadoda amalunga namakhulu amane, ngoxa angamakhulu amabini ahlala nempahla.+

10 Wasukela ke uDavide,+ yena namadoda angamakhulu amane, kodwa amadoda angamakhulu amabini awayedinwe kakhulu ukuba angayiwela intlambo yeBhesore+ ema ngxi.
