18 Yaye umda wabo waba yiYizereli+ neKesuloti neShunem,+

4 Ke kaloku uYonatan,+ unyana kaSawule, wayenonyana osisiqhwala.+ Wayeminyaka mihlanu ubudala ukufika kwengxelo engoSawule noYonatan eyayivela eYizereli;+ impelesi yakhe ke yamthwala yaza yasaba, kodwa kwathi njengoko yayibaleka ngokuphakuzela isaba, ngoko wawa waza waba sisiqhwala. Kwaye igama lakhe yayinguMefibhoshete.+

15 Kamva uYehoram+ ukumkani wabuyela eYizereli+ ukuze kuphile amanxeba akhe awaba nawo ekubethweni kwakhe ngamaSiriya ngoxa wayesilwa noHazayeli ukumkani waseSiriya.+

Ke kaloku uYehu wathi: “Ukuba umphefumlo wenu uyavuma,+ makungaphumi nabani na esixekweni aye kunikela ingxelo eYizereli.”
