22 UDavida wasuka lapho+ wabaleka wayacatsha ebhalwini lwase-Adulamu.+ Abafowabo labo bonke abemuli kayise bathi bekuzwa lokho baya kuye.

3 Wathi efika ezibayeni ezakhiwe ngamatshe ezaziseceleni komgwaqo, wabona ubhalu khonapho wasengena esithi kahle azincede, kanti uDavida lamadoda ayelaye bahlezi emuva phakathi kobhalu.+

32 Kuyini okunye engingakutsho? Phela isikhathi singangitshiya nxa ngingaqalisa ukulandisa ngoGidiyoni,+ loBharakhi,+ loSamsoni,+ loJeftha,+ loDavida+ kanye loSamuyeli+ labanye abaphrofethi.

38 Umhlaba awuzange ubafanele. Bazulazula ezinkangala lasezintabeni, bacatsha ezimbalwini+ lasemigodini yomhlaba.
