15 Bandula ke abalindi abalishumi abathwala izixhobo zikaYowabhi bamfikela baza bamxabela uAbhisalom, ukuze bambulale.+

22 Kwaoko umfazi lowo waya ngobulumko+ bakhe kubantu bonke, baza bayinqumla intloko kaShebha unyana kaBhikeri, bayiphosa kuYowabhi. Ke yena wavuthela isigodlo,+ baza ngoko bachithachitheka bemka kuso isixeko, ngamnye waya ekhayeni lakhe; uYowabhi yena wabuyela eYerusalem kukumkani.

24 Ke kaloku, njengoko uYehova ephila+ oye wandimisela ngokuqinileyo+ wandigcina ndihleli etroneni kaDavide ubawo+ nowandenzela indlu+ kanye njengokuthetha kwakhe,+ namhlanje uAdoniya uza kubulawa.”+

9 UHarbhona,+ omnye wamagosa enkundla+ kakumkani, wathi: “Kukho isibonda+ uHaman asenzele uMordekayi, lowo wathetha okulungileyo ngokumkani,+ simi endlwini kaHaman—singamashumi amahlanu eekubhite ukuphakama.” Wathi ukumkani: “Madoda, mxhomeni kuso.”+

41 Bathi kuye: “Ngenxa yokuba banobubi, uya kuzisa intshabalaliso embi+ phezu kwabo aze aqeshise ngaso isidiliya kwabanye abalimi, abaya kumnika iziqhamo xa sele zilungile.”+
