11 UAsa wenza okulungileyo emehlweni kaYehova, njengoDavide ukhokho wakhe.+

2 UAsa wenza okufanelekileyo nokulungileyo emehlweni kaYehova uThixo wakhe.

11 UAsa wabiza kuYehova uThixo wakhe+ wathi: “Owu Yehova, ngokuphathelele ukunceda, akunamsebenzi kuwe enoba baninzi okanye ngabo bangenamandla.+ Khawusincede, Yehova Thixo wethu, kuba sayama ngawe,+ siza nxamnye nesi sihlwele ngegama lakho.+ Owu Yehova, unguThixo wethu.+ Musa ukuvumela umntu ofayo abe namandla nxamnye nawe.”+

8 Ngokukhawuleza nje akuweva uAsa loo mazwi nesiprofeto sikaOdedi+ umprofeti, waba nesibindi waza wazitshitshisa izinto ezilizothe+ kulo lonke ilizwe lakwaYuda nelakwaBhenjamin nakwizixeko awayezithimbile kummandla weentaba wakwaEfrayim,+ waza wasihlaziya isibingelelo sikaYehova esasiphambi kweveranda kaYehova.+

3 Waza uYehova waqhubeka enoYehoshafati,+ ngenxa yokuba wayehamba ezindleleni zangaphambili zikaDavide ukhokho wakhe+ yaye akazange afune ooBhahali.+

13 Ukuqosheliswa kombandela, emva kokuba yonk’ into iviwe, naku: Yoyika uTHIXO oyinyaniso+ uze ugcine imiyalelo yakhe.+ Kuba oku kuyimbopheleleko yomntu.
