Bawuhlasela umzi. 13Kwabonakala mprofeti uthile, wafika kuAhabhi ukumkani wakwaSirayeli, wathi, uYehova uthi, Uyibonile na le ngxokolo ingaka? yabonani, ndiyawunikela esandleni senu namhla; nazi ukuba ndinguYehova. 14Wathi uAhabhi, Ngabani na? Wathi uYehova, Ngamadodana abathetheli bamazwe. Wathi, Ngubani na oya kumisela imfazwe? Waphendula ke yena wathi, Wena! 15Wawabala amadodana abathetheli bamazwe, aba ngamakhulu amabini anamanci mathathu anamabini; yaye emva kwabo wababala bonke abantu, bonke oonyana bakaSirayeli, bangamawaka asixhenxe. 16Baphuma ke emva kwemini. Ke uBhen-hadade wanxila ezintenteni, yena nookumkani abamashumi mathathu anababini, ababemncedisa. 17Aphuma kuqala amadodana abathetheli bamazwe; Wathumela uBhen-hadade ukuba amxelele; kwathiwa, Kufike amadoda kwaSamari. 18Wathi, Ukuba baphume benoxolo, babambe behleli; ukuba bathe baya emfazweni, babambe behleli; 19Aphuma ke la madodana abathetheli bamazwe phakathi komzi, enomkhosi osemva kwawo. 20Elowo wayibulala indoda yakhe, asaba ama-Aram; AmaSirayeli abasukela, waza uBhen-hadade ukumkani wakwa-Aram wasaba ekhwele ihashe nabakhweli. 21Waphuma ukumkani wakwaSirayeli, wawaxabela amahashe neenqwelo zokulwa, wawaxabela kakhulu ama-Aram. 22Wafika umprofeti lowa kukumkani wakwaSirayeli, wathi kuye, Hamba uye kuzomeleza, uhlale, ubone into oya kuyenza; ngokuba ekufikeni komthombo, ukumkani wakwa-Aram uya kukuhlasela. 23Bathi kuye abakhonzi bokumkani bakwa-Aram, Ngoothixo basezintabeni oothixo babo; ke ngoko bomelele kunathi; kodwa mabalwe entlango, yaye ngokuqinisekileyo siya kuboyisa. 24Yenza le nto: basuse ookumkani elowo endaweni yakhe, ubeke abathetheli ezingontsini zabo; 25Zibale iintendelezo njengeentendelezo zakho, amahashe abe ngangaloo mahashe, inqwelo ngenqwelo; kwaye siya kulwa nabo entlango, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo siya kubadlula ngamandla. Waliphulaphula ilizwi labo, wenjenjalo. 26Kwathi ekuqaleni kwentwasahlobo, uBhen-hadade wawabala ama-Aram, wenyuka waya kulwa noonyana bakaSirayeli eAfeki. 27Babalwa oonyana bakaSirayeli, baba khona bonke, babalwa; ke ama-Aram alizalisa ilizwe. 28Weza umfo wakwaThixo, wathetha kukumkani wakwaSirayeli, wathi, Kutsho uYehova ukuthi, Ekubeni ethe ama-Aram, NguThixo weentaba uYehova, kodwa akanguThixo weembombo; yonke le ngxokolo ingaka yoyinikela esandleni senu; nazi ukuba ndinguYehova. 29Bamisa ke, elowo ekhangelene iintsuku zasixhenxe. Kwabakho imfazwe ngomhla wesixhenxe; oonyana bakaSirayeli babulala kuma-Aram ikhulu lamawaka angumqikela ngamini-nye. 30Inxenye yasabela eAfeki umzi; lwawa udonga phezu kwamashumi amabini anesixhenxe amawaka amadoda aseleyo. Wasaba uBhen-hadade, wangena engontsini engaphakathi yomzi. 31Bathi kuye abakhonzi bakhe, Yabona, sivile ukuba ookumkani bendlu kaSirayeli ngookumkani abanenceba; masithi, sibeke iingubo zokulila, sibeke iintshinga ezintlokweni zethu, siphume siye kukumkani wakwaSirayeli; 32Babhinqa ke iingubo ezimnyama emanqeni, bekhonkxa ngeentsontelo ezintlokweni zabo, baya kukumkani wakwaSirayeli, bathi, Umkhonzi wakho uBhen-hadade ubesithi, Mawusindise umphefumlo wam. Athi: Usaphila? Ngumntakwethu. 33Loo madoda ayelumke ukuze abone ukuba kuya kuphuma nto na kuye, akhawuleza ukuyibamba; Bathi, Bhen-hadade, mzalwana. Wathi, Yiyani, nimthabathe. Waphuma uBhen-hadade, waya kuye; kwaye makangene emotweni. 34Wathi uBhen-hadade kuye, Ndiya kuyibuyisa imizi awayithabathayo ubawo kuyihlo; Uya kuzenzela izitrato eDamasko, njengoko wazenzelayo ubawo kwaSamari. Wathi uAhabhi, Ndiya kukundulula nalo mnqophiso. Wenza isivumelwano naye waza wambuyisa. 35Wathi omnye koonyana babaprofeti kummelwane wakhe ngelizwi likaYehova, Ndibethe! Akavuma loo mntu ukumbetha. 36Yathi kuye, Ekubeni ungaliphulaphulanga ilizwi likaYehova, yabona, ukuba uthe wemka kum, ingonyama iya kukubulala. Uthe ke akumshiya, wafunyanwa yingonyama, yambulala. 37Wafumana mntu wumbi, wathi, Ndibethe. Yandula ke indoda leyo yambetha, kangangokuba yamlimaza ngokumbetha. 38Wahamba ke umprofeti lowo, wamlinda ukumkani endleleni, wazigqubuthela ngothuthu ubuso bakhe. 39Wadlula ukumkani, wambiza ukumkani, wathi, Umkhonzi wakho lo uvela edabini; nanko kuphenduka enye indoda, yezisa indoda kum, yathi, Gcina le ndoda; 40Wathi akuxakeka ngumkhonzi wakho lo, wemka. Wathi ukumkani wakwaSirayeli kuye, Umgwebo wakho woba wenjenje; Wenze isigqibo. 41Wakhawuleza walususa uthuthu ebusweni bakhe; yaye ukumkani wakwaSirayeli wamkhetha njengomnye wabaprofeti. 42Wathi kuye: “Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Ekubeni uye wakhulula indoda esandleni sakho endayiwisela umthetho wokuba ayitshabalalise, umphefumlo wakho uya kuba sesikhundleni somphefumlo wayo, nabantu bakho esikhundleni sabantu bayo. 43Waba buhlungu ukumkani wakwaSirayeli waza wacaphuka endlwini yakhe waza waya eSamariya.
