39 Weva uDavide ukuba uNabhali ufile, ngoko wathi: “Makabongwe uYehova, olichopheleyo ityala+ lokungcikivwa kwam+ ukuze andikhulule esandleni sikaNabhali nomnqandileyo umkhonzi wakhe ebubini,+ yaye ububi bukaNabhali uYehova ububuyisele entlokweni yakhe!”+ Wathumela ke uDavide waza wacela ukuthabatha uAbhigali njengomfazi wakhe.+

30 Umtsalane usenokuba yinkohliso,+ nobuhle busenokuba lilize;+ kodwa ngumfazi owoyika uYehova oya kudunyiswa.+

9 Ngokunjalo ndinqwenela ukuba abafazi bazihombise ngesinxibo esilungiswe kakuhle, ngokuthozama+ nangengqondo ephilileyo, kungekhona ngezimbo zokulukwa kweenwele nokunxitywa kwegolide neeperile nezambatho zeendleko ezinkulu,+

4 kodwa makube kokomntu ofihlakeleyo+ wentliziyo ofake isivatho esingenakonakala+ somoya ozolileyo+ nowobulali, oxabiso likhulu emehlweni kaThixo.
