Ngomlomo wawofakazi ababili noma ngowawofakazi abathathu uyakubulawa lowo ofanele ukufa ; ngomlomo wofakazi munye akayikubulawa.

Ufakazi oyedwa nje akayikumvukela umuntu ngobubi , noma ngesono , noma kuyisiphi isono ona ngaso ; ngomlomo wawofakazi ababili noma ngomlomo wawofakazi abathathu indaba iyakuqiniswa.

Nxa usukile khona uye phambili , uyakufika kulo i -oki laseThabori ; kuyakuhlangana nawe khona abantu abathathu bekhuphukela kuNkulunkulu eBethele, omunye ephethe amazinyane amathathu ezimbuzi, omunye ephethe izinkwa ezintathu, omunye ephethe imvaba yewayini;

Kwehla abathathu kwaba yizinhloko ezingamashumi amathathu , bafika kuDavide ngesikhathi sokuvuna emhumeni wase -Adulamu; impi yamaFilisti yayimise esiGodini samaRefa.

U-Abishayi umfowabo kaJowabe indodana kaSeruya wayeyinhloko yabathathu. Waphakamisela abangamakhulu amathathu umkhonto wakhe , wababulala, waba negama phakathi kwalabo abathathu.

Induna yabalindi yathatha uSeraya umpristi omkhulu , noZefaniya umpristi wesibili, nabalindimnyango abathathu;

Amadodana kaJuda : ngo-Eri, no-Onani, noShela; labo abathathu bazalwa nguye kuBati Shuwa , umKhananikazi. Kepha u -Eri, izibulo likaJuda , wayemubi emehlweni kaJehova; wambulala.

Kwehla abathathu kwabayizinhloko ezingamashumi amathathu , baya etsheni kuDavide emhumeni wase -Adulamu; impi yamaFilisti yayimise esiGodini samaRefa.

Labo abathathu bafohla ikamu lamaF ilisti, bakha amanzi emthonjeni waseBetlehema owawungasesangweni , bawathatha, bawaletha kuDavide ; kepha uDavide akavumanga ukuwaphuza , kodwa wawathululela uJehova , wathi:

U-Abishayi umfowabo kaJowabe wayeyinhloko yabathathu , ngokuba waphakamisela abangamakhulu amathathu umkhonto wakhe , wababulala, waba negama phakathi kwalaba abathathu.

Kulaba abathathu wayetusekile kunababili , waba yisikhulu sabo , kepha akafinyelelanga kwabathathu bokuqala.

Amadodana akhe ayehamba enza idili endlini yaleyo naleyo ngosuku lwayo ; ayesethuma ebiza odadewabo abathathu ukuba badle, baphuze nawo.

Lapho abangane abathathu bakaJobe sebezwe ngakho konke lokho okubi okumehleleyo, bafika kuye bevela , kwaba yilowo nalowo endaweni yakhe : ngu-Elifazi umThema ni, noBilidadi umShuhi , noSofari umNahama ; bavumelana ukuba baye bamkhalele, bamduduze.

Ulaka lwakhe lwavuthela nabangane bakhe abathathu , ngokuba noma bengafumananga impendulo, bamlahla nokho uJobe.

Induna yabalindi yathatha uSeraya, umpristi omkhulu, noZefaniya, umpristi wesibili, nabalindimnyango abathathu;

Phezu kwazo wamisa abongameli abathathu , uDaniyeli engomunye wabo , ukuba izikhulu zibike kubo, ukuze inkosi ingalimali ngalutho.

Kodwa uma engakuzwa , thatha futhi abe munye noma bebabili kanye nawe ukuba onke amazwi aqiniswe ngomlomo wawofakazi ababili noma abathathu.

Ngokuba lapho kubuthene ababili noma abathathu egameni lami , ngikhona lapho phakathi kwabo.

Ngumuphi ngokubona kwakho kula ba abathathu owaba ngumakhelwane wakhe owatheleka phakathi kwezigcwelegcwele na?

Icala eliqondene nelunga ungalemukeli , kungekho ofakazi ababili noma abathathu.
