Abantu bomuzi baphuma balwa noJowabe ; kwawa abantu abathile ezincekwini zikaDavide; wafa naye u-Uriya umHeti.

Wacebisana noJowabe indodana kaSeruya no -Abiyathara umpristi; bamsiza u-Adoniya, bamlandela.

usehlabile izinkabi , namathole akhuluphalisiweyo, nezimvu eziningi , umemile onke amadodana enkosi, no-Abiyathara umpristi, noJowabe induna yempi; kepha uSolomoni inceku yakho kammemanga.

Izinsuku uDavide abusa ngazo phezu kuka -Israyeli zaziyiminyaka engamashumi amane ; iminyaka eyisikhombisa wabusa eHebroni , iminyaka engamashumi amathathu nantathu wabusa eJerusalema. Izijeziso zika-Adoniya, no-Abiyathara, noJowabe, noShimeyi

Inkosi uSolomoni yaphendula , yathi kunina : Umcelelelani u -Adoniya u- Abishagi waseShunemi na? Mcelele nombuso futhi, ngokuba ungumnewethu; yebo, mcelele yena no-Abiyathara umpristi, noJowabe indodana kaSeruya.

Kwathi uDavide ekwa-Edomi, noJowabe induna yempi enyukele ukumbela ababuleweyo, ebacekile bonke abesilisa kwa-Edomi

odadewabo: ngoSeruya no-Abigayili. Amadodana kaSeruya: ngo-Abishayi, noJowabe, no-Asaheli, emathathu.

kanye nakho konke uSamuweli umboni , noSawule indodana kaKishi , no- Abineri indodana kaNeri , noJowabe indodana kaS eruya ababekungcwelisile; yilowo nalowo owayengcwelisile okuthile , kwaba phansi kwesandla sikaShelomoti nabafowabo.
