U-Abineri wayesethi kuDavide: Ngiyakusuka ngihambe ngiqoqele wonke u - Israyeli enkosini yami, inkosi, ukuba benze isivumelwano nawe nokuba ubuse phezu kwakho konke ekufisayo inhliziyo yakho . UDavide wammukisa u - Abineri, wahamba ngokuthula.

UJowabe esephumile kuDavide wathuma izithunywa ukulandela u -Abineri, zambuyisa emthonjeni waseSira, kepha uDavide wayengakwazi lokho.

Esekuzwa lokho ngasemuva uDavide wathi: Mina nombuso wami asinacala phambi kukaJehova kuze kube phakade ngegazi lika -Abineri indodana kaNeri;

UDavide wathi kuJowabe nakubantu bonke ababe naye : Klebhulani izingubo zenu , nibhince indwangu yamasaka , nilile phambi kuka -Abineri. Inkosi uDavide yalandela uhlaka.

UDavide waphendula oRekabi noBahana umfowabo amadodana kaRimoni waseBeyeroti, wathi kubo: Kuphila kukaJehova ohlengile umphefumulo wami osizini lonke,

UDavide wayeseyaleza izinsizwa zakhe , zababulala, zabanquma izandla nezinyawo, zabaphanyeka ngaseceleni kwechibi laseHebroni. Kepha bathatha ikhanda lika-Ishi Bosheti, balimbela ethuneni lika-Abineri eHebroni.

UDavide wahlala enqabeni , wayibiza ngokuthi umuzi kaDavide . UDavide wakha nxazonke kusukela eMilo kuya ngaphakathi.

UDavide waqhubeka njalo ngokukhula , ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti wayenaye.

UHiramu inkosi yaseTire wathuma izithun ywa kuDavide , nemisedari, nababazi bemithi, nabakhi; bamakhela uDavide indlu.

UDavide waqonda ukuthi uJehova wayemmisile impela ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli nokuthi uphakamisile umbuso wakhe ngenxa yabantu bakhe u - Israyeli.

UDavide wazithathela ezin ye izancinza nabafazi eJerusalema , esefikile evela eHebroni; uDavide wayesazalelwa amadodana namadodakazi.

Lapho amaFilisti esezwile ukuthi bamgcobile uDavide ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli, onke amaFilisti enyuka ukumfuna uDavide ; uDavide wakuzwa, wehlela enqabeni.

UDavide wabuza kuJehova, wathi: Ngiyakwenyuka, ngihlasele amaFilisti na? Uyakuwanikela esandleni sami na ? UJehova wathi kuDavide : Yenyuka, ngokuba ngiyakuwanikela impela amaFilisti esandleni sakho.

UDavide wafika eBali Pherasimi , uDavide wawachitha khona ; wathi: UJehova ufohlile ezitheni zami phambi kwami njengokufohla kwamanzi . Ngalokho waqamba igama laleyo ndawo ngokuthi iBali Pherasimi.

Lapho uDavide ebuza kuJehova , wathi yena: Awuyikwenyuka; gwegwesa emva kwawo, uwafikele malungana namajikijolo.

UDavide wenze njalo njengalokho uJehova emyalile , wachitha amaFilisti kusukela eGeba kuze kufike eGezeri.

UDavide wabuye wabutha bonke abakhethiweyo bakwa -Israyeli, izinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu.

UDavide wahamba nabo bonke abantu ababe naye , besuka eBali Juda ukwenyusa khona umphongolo kaNkulunkulu obizwa ngeGama , lona igama likaJehova Sebawoti ohlala phezu kwamakherubi.

UDavide kanye nendlu yonke k a-Israyeli bathokoza ebusweni bukaJehova benezinto zonke zokubetha zomsayipuresi , namahabhu, nezingubhu, nezigubhu, nobuxhaka, namasimbali.

UDavide wadabuka ngokuba uJehova emhlasele u-Uza, wayibiza leyo ndawo ngokuthi iPheresi-Uza kuze kube namuhla.

UDavide wamesaba uJehova ngalolo suku . Wathi: Umphongolo kaJehova uyakuza kanjani kimi na?

Ngalokho uDavide akavumanga ukuwuletha umphongolo kaJehova kuye emzini kaDavide , kepha uDavide wawubuyisela eceleni endlini ka -Obede Edomi umGiti.

Kwatshelwa inkosi uDavide ukuthi uJehova ubusisile indlu ka -Obede Edomi nakho konke okwakhe ngenxa yomphongolo kaNkulunkulu . UDavide wahamba wenyusa umphongolo kaNkulunkulu endlini ka -Obede Edomi , wawuyisa emzini kaDavide ngokujabula.

UDavide wasina ph ambi kukaJehova ngamandla akhe onke ; uDavide wayebhince ingubo yamahlombe yelineni.

Kanjalo uDavide nayo yonke indlu ka -Israyeli benyusa umphongolo kaJehova ngokukhamuluka nangokukhala kwecilongo.

Kwathi umphongolo kaJehova ungena nje emzini kaDavide , uMikhali indodakazi kaSawule walunguza efasiteleni , wabona inkosi uDavide itshekula, isina phambi kukaJehova; wayidelela enhliziyweni yakhe.

Bawungenisa umphongolo kaJehova , bawubeka endaweni yawo phakathi kwetende uDavide alimisele wona ; uDavide wanik ela ngeminikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula phambi kukaJehova.

UDavide eseqedile ukunikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula wabusisa abantu egameni likaJehova Sebawoti.

UDavide wayesebuya ukubusisa indlu yakhe . UMikhali indodakazi kaSawule waphuma ukumhlangabeza uDavide, wathi: Yeka udumo lwenkosi ka-Israyeli namuhla, ezambulile namuhla emehlweni ezincekukazi zezinceku zakhe njengomunye wamayiyane, ezambula nokuzambula.

Wayesethi uDavide kuMikhali : Ngaphambi kukaJehova owangikhetha phezu kukayihlo naphezu kwayo yonke indlu yakhe ukungimisa ukuba ngibe ngumbusi wabantu bakaJehova kwa -Israyeli, yebo, ngaphambi kukaJehova ngathokoza.

Malibe likhulu igama lakho kuze kube phakade ukuze kuthiwe : U Jehova Sebawoti unguNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, indlu yenceku yakho uDavide imiswe ngaphambi kwakho.

Kwathi emva kwalokho uDavide wawashaya amaFilisti , wawahlula, wathatha itomu lomzimkhulu esandleni samaFilisti.

UDavide wamshaya uHadadezeri indodana kaRehobe , inkosi yaseSoba , ekuhambeni kwakhe ukubuyisa umbuso wakhe ngasemfuleni.

UDavide wamaphuca abamahhashi abayinkulungwane namakhulu ayisikhombisa nemigundatshani eyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili ; uDavide wanquma imisipha yawo onke amahhashi ezinqola , washiya awezinqola eziyikhulu kodwa.

Ama-Aramu aseDamaseku esefika ukumsiza uHadadezeri inkosi yaseSoba , uDavide wabulala abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili kuma-Aramu.

UDavide wamisa amakhanda e -Aramu laseDamaseku , ama-Aramu aba yizinceku zikaDavide, athela intela. UJehova wamnqobisa uDavide nomaph i lapho eya khona.

UDavide wathatha izihlangu zegolide ezazisezincekwini zikaHadadezeri , waziletha eJerusalema.

Emizini kaHadadezeri iBetha neBerothayi inkosi uDavide yathatha ithusi eliningi kakhulu.

Lapho uThoyi inkosi yaseHamati ezwa ukuthi uDavide u shayile yonke impi kaHadadezeri,

Nalezo inkosi uDavide yazingcwelisela uJehova kanye nesiliva negolide eyayilingcwelisile livela ezizweni zonke eyayizahlulile:

UDavide wazenzela igama ekubuyeni kwakhe esebulele ama -Aramu ayizinkulungwane eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili esiGodini sikaSawoti.

Wamisa amakhanda kwa -Edomi; kulo lonke lakwa -Edomi wamisa amakhanda, nabo bonke abakwa-Edomi baba yizinceku zikaDavide. UJehova wamnqobisa uDavide nomaphi lapho eya khona.

UDavide wabusa phezu kuka -Israyeli wonke , uDavide waphatha ukwahlulela nokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.

UDavide wathi : Usekhona yini osele endlini kaSawule ukuba ngimenzele umusa ngenxa kaJonathani na?

Inkosi uDavide yayisithuma yamlanda endlini kaMakiri indodana ka-Amiyeli waseLo Debari.

UMefibosheti indodana kaJonathani kaSawule wafika kuDavide , wawa ngobuso, wakhuleka. UDavide wathi : Mefibosheti. Wathi: Nansi i nceku yakho.

UDavide wayesethi kuye : Ungesabi, ngokuba impela ngiyakukwenzela umusa ngenxa kaJonathani uyihlo , ngikubuyisele lonke izwe likayihlo uSawule, udle njalo etafuleni lami.

UDavide wathi : Ngiyakumenzela umusa uHanuni indodana kaNahashi , njengalokho uyise angenzela umusa . UDavide wayesethuma ngesandla sezinceku zakhe ukumduduza ngoyise . Zafika-ke izinceku zikaDavide ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Kepha izikhulu zabantwana bakwa-Amoni zathi kuHanuni inkosi yazo: Imbala ngokubona kwakho uDavide uthume abaduduzi kuwe ukuba atuse uyihlo na? UDavide akazithumanga yini izinceku zakhe kuwe ukuba ziphenye umuzi, ziwuhlole, ziwuchithe, na?

Lapho sebemtshela uDavide lokho , wathumela ukuzihlangabeza , ngokuba ayenamahloni kakhulu lawo madoda . Yathi inkosi : Hlalani eJeriko , zize zihlume izilevu zenu, bese nibuya.

UDavide esezwile lokho wamthuma uJowabe nempi yonke yamaqhawe.

UDavide watshelwa, wabutha wonke u -Israyeli, wawela iJordani , wafika eHelamu. Ama-Aramu azihlela ukuhlangabezana noDavide, alwa naye.

Ama-Aramu abaleka phambi kuka -Israyeli; uDavide wabulala kuma -Aramu izinqola ezingamakhulu ayisikhombisa nabamahhashi abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane , wamshaya uShobaki induna yempi yabo , wafela khona lapho.

Emva komnyaka ngesikhathi sokuhlasela kwamakhosi uDavide wamthuma uJowabe nezinceku zakhe zinaye kanye no -Israyeli wonke , babachitha abantwana bakwa-Amoni, bavimbezela iRaba ; kepha uDavide wahlala eJerusalema.

Kwathi kusihlwa uDavide wavuka embhedeni , wahamba ophahleni lwendlu yenkosi, wabona esesophahleni owesifazane egeza ; owesifazane wayemuhle kakhulu, ebukeka.

UDavide wathuma wabuza ngalowo wesifazane . Omunye wathi : Lowo akasiye uBati Sheba yini, indodakazi ka-Eliyamu, umka-Uriya umHeti, na?

UDavide wathuma izithunywa , wamthatha; wangena kuye , walala naye , ngokuba wayesehlambulukile yena ekungcoleni kwakhe; wabuyela ekhaya.

Owesifazane wamitha, wathuma wamtshela uDavide, wathi: Ngikhulelwe.

UDavide wayesethumela kuJowabe ngokuthi : Thuma kimi u -Uriya umHeti. UJowabe wamthuma u-Uriya kuDavide.

Esefikile kuye u -Uriya, uDavide wabuza kuye impilo yakhe , nempilo yabantu, nokuthi impi ihamba kanjani.

UDavide wayesethi ku -Uriya: Yehla uye endlini yakho, ugeze izinyawo zakho. U-Uriya waphuma endlini yenkosi , kwamlandela isipho sokudla esivela enkosini.

UDavide esetsheliwe ukuthi u -Uriya akehlelanga endlini yakhe , uDavide wathi ku-Uriya: Awubuyi ekuhambeni yini? Awehlelanga ngani endlini yakho na?

Wayesethi uDavide ku -Uriya: Hlala lapha nanamuhla ; kusasa ngiyakukuvumela ukuba uhambe. U-Uriya wayesehlala eJerusalema lolo suku nolulandelayo.

UJowabe wayesethuma wamtshela uDavide zonke izindaba zempi;

Sase sihamba isithunywa , safika samtshela uDavide konke esasikuthunyelwe nguJowabe.

UDavide wayesethi kuso isithunywa : Uyakusho kanje kuJowabe , uthi: Le nto mayingabi mbi emehlweni akho , ngokuba inkemba idla omunye njengomunye; qinisa impi yakho ngasemzini, uwuchithe; bese wumqunga isibindi.

Sekuphelile ukulila , uDavide wathum a wamletha endlini yakhe ; waba ngumkakhe, wamzalela indodana . Kepha leyo nto eyenziwe nguDavide yayimbi emehlweni kaJehova.

UDavide wathi kuNathani : Ngonile kuJehova. UNathani wathi kuDavide : NoJehova ususile isono sakho; awuyikufa.

UNathani wayesebuyela endlini yakhe . UJehova washaya ngesifo umntwana owazalelwa uDavide kumka-Uriya, wagula kakhulu.

UDavide wamncenga uNkulunkulu ngomntwana ; uDavide wazila ukudla , wangena, walala emhlabathini ubusuku bonke.

Kepha uDavide ebona uk uthi izinceku zakhe ziyanyenyezelana , uDavide waqonda ukuthi umntwana ufile ; uDavide wayesethi ezincekwini zakhe : Usefile umntwana na? Zathi: Ufile.

UDavide wayesevuka emhlabathini , wageza, wazigcoba, waphendulela izingubo zakhe, wangena endlini kaJehova , wakhuleka; wayeseya endlini yakhe; lapho esecela ukudla, bakubeka phambi kwakhe, wadla.

AmaFilisti abuye aphaka impi no -Israyeli; uDavide wehla, izinceku zakhe zinaye, balwa namaFilisti; uDavide waphela amandla.

U-Ishibi Benobi wabantwana bamaRefa osisindo somkhonto wakhe sasingamashekeli angamakhulu amathathu ethusi , ebhince inkemba entsha , wathi uyakumbulala uDavide.

UDavide wakhuluma kuJehova amazwi aleli hubo mhla uJehova emophula esandleni sezitha zakhe zonke nasesandleni sikaSawule,

Uyenza insindiso ibe nkulu enkosin i yakhe; uyenza umusa kogcotshiweyo wakhe uDavide nasenzalweni yakhe kuze kube phakade.

Wayetuseka kunabangamashumi amathathu , kepha akafinyelelanga kwabathathu bokuqala. UDavide wambeka phezu kwabalindi bakhe.

Intukuthelo kaJehova yabuye yavuthela u-Israyeli, wamvusa uDavide ngabo ngokuthi: Hamba ubale u-Israyeli noJuda.

UDavide wahlabeka enhliziyweni emva kokuba esebabalile abantu . UDavide wathi kuJehova : Ngonile kakhulu ngalokho engikwenzileyo ; kepha manje, Jehova, mawuthethelele ububi benceku yakho, ngokuba ngintumazele kakhulu.

Wathi ukuba uDavide avuke ekuseni, kwafika izwi likaJehova kumprofethi uGadi umboni kaDavide lokuthi:

Wayesethi uDavide kuGadi : Nginosizi kakhulu ; masiwele esandleni sikaJehova, ngokuba umusa wakhe mkhulu ; kepha esandleni somuntu mangingaweli kuso.

UDavide wathi kuJehova , lapho eyibona ingelosi eyayibabulala abantu : Bheka, mina ngonile, ngenzile okubi; kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na ? Isandla sakho masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Arawuna

UDavide wenyuka njengokusho kukaGadi nanjengokuyala kukaJehova.

Wathi u -Arawuna: Kungani uku ba inkosi yami , inkosi, ifikile encekwini yayo na ? UDavide wathi : Ukuba ngithenge kuwe isibuya , ngimakhele uJehova i-altare, ukuze lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

Inkosi yathi ku -Arawuna: Qha, ngiyakukuthenga nokukuthenga ngenani elithile; angiyikunikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa kuJehova uNkulunkulu wami engeyesihle . UDavide wayesethenga isibuya nezinkabi ngamashekeli angamashumi ayisihlanu esiliva.

UDavide wamakhela khona uJehova i -altare, wanikela nge minikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula . UJehova wancengwa ngenxa yezwe , isifo sanqamuka kwa-Israyeli.

Inkosi uDavide yayisindala , ineminyaka eminingi ; bayembesa ngezingubo , kepha ayifudumalanga.

UNathani wathi kuBati Sheba unina kaSolomoni: Awuzwanga yini ukuthi u- Adoniya indodana kaHagiti uyabusa, uDavide inkosi yethu engakwazi, na?

Hamba ungene enkosini uDavide , uthi kuyo : Wena nkosi yami , nkosi, awufunganga yini kuyo incekukazi yakho ngokuthi : USolomoni indodana yakho uyakuba yinkosi emva kwami , ahlale esihlalweni sami sobukhosi , na? Pho, kungani ukuba kubuse u-Adoniya na?

Inkosi uDavide yayisithi : Ngibizele uSadoki umpristi , noNathani umprofethi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada. Bafika phambi kwenkosi.

Njengalokho uJehova waba nenkosi yami , inkosi, makabe naye uSolomoni, asenze isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi sibe sikhulu kunesihlalo sobukhosi senkosi yami, inkosi uDavide.

Base behla uSadoki umpristi , noNathani umprofethi, noBenaya indodana kaJehoyada, namaKhereti namaPheleti , bamkhwelisa uSolomoni kuwo umnyuzi wenkosi uDavide, bamyisa eGihoni.

UJonathani waphendula , wathi ku -Adoniya: Qha, inkosi yethu , inkosi uDavide, imbekile uSolomoni inkosi;

Nezinceku zenkosi zafika ukuyibusisa inkosi yethu , inkosi uDavide , ngokuthi: U Nkulunkulu wakho makenze igama likaSolomoni libe lihle kunegama lakho , asenze isihlalo sa khe sobukhosi sibe sikhulu kunesihlalo sakho sobukhosi; inkosi yakhothama embhedeni wayo.

UDavide wayeselala koyise, wembelwa emzini kaDavide.

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

UJehova uya kulibuyisela igazi lakhe ekhanda lakhe , ngokuba wasukela amadoda amabili alungileyo amahle kunaye , wawabulala ngenkemba, ubaba uDavide engazi: u-Abineri indodana kaNeri, induna yempi yakwa-Israyeli, no- Amasa indodana kaJetheri, induna yempi yakwaJuda.

USolomoni wathi : Wenzele inceku yakho uDavide ubaba umusa omkhulu njengokuhamba kwakhe phambi kwakho ngeqiniso , nangokulunga, nangobuqotho benhliziyo kuwe , wamgcinela futhi lowo musa omkhulu , wamnika indodana ukuba ihlale esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi , njengokuba kunjalo namuhla.

Uma uhamba ngezindlela zami , ugcine izimiso zami nemiyalo yami , njengalokho uyihlo uDavide wahamba, ngiyakwandisa izinsuku zakho.

Wena uyazi ukuthi uDavide ubaba wayengenakwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe indlu ngenxa yezimpi ezazimzungeza nxazonke, uJehova waze wazibeka phansi kwamathe ezinyawo zakhe.

Kwathi uHiramu ezwile amazwi kaSolomoni wathokoza kakhulu , wathi: Makabusiswe uJehova namuhla omnikile uDavide indodana ehlakaniphileyo phezu kwalabo bantu abakhulu.

Sekuphelile wonke umsebenzi inkosi uSolomoni eyawenzayo endlini kaJehova, uSolomoni wangenisa izinto uyise uDavide ay ezingcwelisile, isiliva, negolide, nezitsha, wakubeka engcebeni yendlu kaJehova.

Kusukela osukwini engakhipha ngalo abantu bami u -Israyeli eGibithe angikhethanga muzi ezizweni zonke zakwa -Israyeli ukwakha indlu ukuba igama lami libe khona lapho , kepha ngamkhetha uDavide abe phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

ogcine nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ; yebo, owakukhuluma ngomlomo wakho ukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengokuba kunjalo namuhla.

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, gcina nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ukuthi : Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe emehlweni ami ukuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa -Israyeli, uma kuphela abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo ukuba bahambe phambi kwami , njengalokho wena uhambe phambi kwami.

Ngalokho, Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, maliqiniseke izwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho uDavide ubaba.

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

UHadadi esezwile eGibithe ukuthi uDavide ulele koyise nokuthi uJowabe induna yempi ufile, uHadadi wathi kuFaro: Ngivumele ukuba ngihambe ngiye ezweni lakithi.

Lapho uDavide ebabulala, wazibuthela abantu, waba yinduna yeviyo; baya eDamaseku, bahlala khona, babusa eDamaseku.

kodwa yena uyakuba nesizwe sibe sinye ngenxa yenceku yami uDavide nangenxa yeJerusalema , umuzi engiwukhethileyo ezizweni zonke zakwa - Israyeli

Indodana yakhe ngiyakuyinika isizwe sibe sinye , ukuze uDavide inceku yami abe nesibani izinsuku zonke phambi kwami eJerusalema , umuzi engiwukhethileyo ukuba ngibeke khona igama lami.

Kuyakuthi uma ulalela konke engikuyala ngakho, uhambe ngezindlela zami, wenze okulungile emehlweni ami ukugcina izimiso zami nemiyalo yami njengalokho akwenza uDavide inceku yami , ngiyakuba nawe , ngikwakhele indlu eyiyo njengalokho ngamakhela uDavide, ngikunike u-Israyeli.

Umpristi wanikela ezinduneni zamakhulu imikhonto nezihlangu okwakungokwenkosi uDavide, kusendlini kaJehova.

Wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova njengakho konke akwenzileyo uDavide uyise.

Ngiyakuwuvikela lo muzi ukuba ngiwusindis e ngenxa yami nangenxa yenceku yami uDavide.

Ngiyakwenezela ezinsukwini za kho iminyaka eyishumi nanhlanu , ngikophule wena nalo muzi esandleni senkosi yase -Asiriya; ngiyakuwuvikela lo muzi ngenxa yami nangenxa yenceku yami uDavide.

naseBeti Marikaboti , naseHasari Susimi , naseBeti Biri , naseShaharayimi. Yileyo eyayiyimizi yabo kwaze kwabusa uDavide.

Nampa uDavide abamisela ukuhola ukuhlabelela endlini kaJehova , umphongolo usubekiwe khona.

Kwase kufika onke amalunga akwa -Israyeli enkosini eHebroni ; uDavide wenza isivumelwano nawo eHe broni phambi kukaJehova; amgcoba uDavide ukuba abe yinkosi kwa -Israyeli njen gezwi likaJehova ngesandla sikaSamuweli.

UDavide naye wonke u -Israyeli baya eJerusalema eliyiJebusi ; amaJebusi ayakhe kulelo zwe ayeselapho.

Abakhileyo eJebusi bathi kuDavide : Awuyikungena lapha . UDavide wathatha nokho inqaba yaseSiyoni engumuzi kaDavide.

UDavide wathi: Lowo ochitha amaJebusi kuqala uyakuba yinhloko nenduna. Kwenyuka kuqala uJowabe indodana kaSeruya, waba yinhloko.

UDavide wahlala enqabeni; ngalokho bayibiza ngokuthi umuzi kaDavide.

UDavide waqhubeka njalo ngokukhula , ngokuba uJehova Sebawoti wayenaye. Amaqhawe kaDavide

Yilaba abayizinhloko zamaqhawe uDavide ayenazo , zibambelela kuye ngamandla ebukhosini bakhe kanye naye wonke u-Israyeli ukumbeka inkosi njengezwi likaJehova ngo-Israyeli.

Nanku umumo wamaqhawe uDavide ayenawo : uJashobehamu indodana yomHakimoni, inhloko yamashumi amathathu ; waphakamisela abangamakhulu amathathu umkhonto wakhe, wababulala ngasikhathi sinye.

UDavide wayesesenqabeni, ikhanda lamaFilisti laliseBetlehema.

UDavide wanxanela , wathi: Hawu, sengathi ngingaphuziswa amanzi asemthonjeni waseBetlehema owawungasesangweni.

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

Bheka, wayetusekile kunabangamashumi amathathu, kepha akafinyelelanga kwabathathu bokuqala; uDavide wambeka phezu kwabalindi bakhe.

UDavide waphuma ukubahlangabeza , wathatha, wathi kubo : Uma nize nokuthula kimi ukungisiza, inhliziyo yami iyakuba nye nani , kepha uma kungukungikhohlisa ezitheni zami , lokhu kungekho okubi ezandleni zami , uNkulunkulu wawobaba makakubheke, akujezise.

Kwase kwehla umoya phezu kuka -Amasayi owayeyinhloko yabangamashumi amathathu, wathi: Singabakho thina, Davide, sinawe, wena ndodana kaJese ; ukuthula, ukuthula makube nawe , ukuthula makube nabakusizayo, ngokuba uNkulunkulu wakho uyakusiza . Wayesebamukela uDavide, wabenza izinhloko zeviyo.

Bamsiza uDavide eviyweni, ngokuba babe ngamaqhawe anamandla bonke, beyizinduna zempi.

Ngokuba imihla ngemihla bafika kuDavide ukumsiza , kwaze kwaba yimpi enkulu njengempi kaNkulunkulu. Umumo wabantu abambeka uDavide inkosi eHebroni

Kuyo in xenye yesizwe sakwaManase yizinkulungwane eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili, ezabizwa ngamagama ukuba zize zimbeke uDavide inkosi.

Onke lawo madoda empi , angahlela impi , afika eHebroni ngezinhliziyo ezipheleleyo ukubeka uDavide inkosi kwa -Israyeli; nabo bonke abaseleyo bakwa-Israyeli babenhliziyonye ukumbeka uDavide inkosi.

UDavide welulekana nezinduna zezinkulungwane nezamakhulu , nabaholi bonke.

UDavide wathi kulo lonke ibandla lakwa -Israyeli: Uma kukuhle kini , uma kuvela kuJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, masihlakazeke sithumele kubafowethu abasele ezweni lonke lakwa -Israyeli kanye nabapristi namaLevi emizini yabo enamadlelo ukuba babuthane kithi,

UDavide wayesebutha wonke u -Israyeli kusukela eSihori laseGibithe kuze kube sekuyeni eHamati ukususa umphongolo kaNkulunkulu eKiriyati Jeharimi.

UDavide wenyukela kanye naye wonke u -Israyeli e Bahala, okungukuthi iKiriyati Jeharimi elalingelakwaJuda , ukukhuphula khona umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uJehova ohlezi phezu kwamakherubi , owawubizwa ngegama lakhe.

UDavide naye wonke u-Israyeli bathokoza ebusweni bukaNkulunkulu ngamandla onke ngamahubo, nangamahabhu, nangezingubhu, nangezigubhu, nangamasimbali, nangamacilongo.

UDavide wadabuka ngokuba uJehova emhlasele u -Uza, wayibiza leyo ndawo ngokuthi iPheresi-Uza kuze kube namuhla.

UDavide wamesaba uNkulunkulu ngalolo suku; wathi: Ngizakuletha kanjani umphongolo kaNkulunkulu kimi na?

UDavide akawuyisanga umphongolo kuye emzini kaDavide , kepha wawubuyisela eceleni endlini ka-Obede Edomi umGiti.

UDavide waqonda ukuthi uJehova wayemmisile impela ukuba abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli, ngokuba umbuso wakhe waphakanyiselwa phezulu ngenxa yabantu bakhe u-Israyeli.

UDavide wathatha abanye abafazi eJerusalema , uDavide wazala amanye amadodana namadodakazi.

AmaFilisti esezwile ukuthi uDavide ugcotshiwe ukuba abe yinkosi kwa - Israyeli wonke , onke amaFilisti enyuka ukumfuna uDavide ; uDavide wakuzwa, waphuma ukuwahlasela.

uDavide wabuza kuNkulunkulu , wathi: Ngenyukele ukuhlasela amaFilisti na? Uyakuwanikela esandleni sami na ? UJehova wathi kuye : Yenyuka, ngokuba ngiyakuwanikela esandleni sakho.

Base benyukela eBali Pherasimi , uDavide wa wachitha; uDavide wathi : UNkulunkulu ufohlele izitha zami ngesandla sami njengokufohla kwamanzi . Ngalokho baqamba igama laleyo ndawo ngokuthi iBali Pherasimi.

Ashiya khona onkulunkulu bawo; uDavide wathi mabashiswe ngomlilo.

UDavide waphinda wabuza kuNkulunkulu ; uNkulunkulu wathi kuye : Ungenyuki emva kwawo; wagwegwesele, uwafikele malungana namajikijolo.

UDavide wenza njengokumyala kukaNkulunkulu, bachitha impi yamaFilisti kusukela eGibeyoni kuze kube seGezeri.

UDavide wabuthela wonke u -Israyeli eJerusalema ukukhuphulela umphongolo kaJehova endaweni yawo awulungisele yona.

UDavide wabutha amadodana ka-Aroni namaLevi;

UDavide wabiza oSadoki no -Abiyathara abapristi, namaLevi o-Uriyeli, no- Asaya, noJoweli, noShemaya, no-Eliyeli, no-Aminadaba, wathi kubo:

UDavide washo ezinduneni zamaLevi ukuba zibeke abafowabo abahlabeleli, benezinto zokubetha , izingubhu, namahabhu, namasimbali, bakubethe, baphakamise izwi labo ngokuthokoza.

UDavide namalunga akwa -Israyeli nezinduna zezinkulungwane baya ukuwukhuphula umphongolo wesivumelwano sika Jehova endlini ka -Obede Edomi ngokuthokoza;

UDavide wayembethe ingubo yelineni elicolekileyo kan ye nawo onke amaLevi ayethwala umphongolo , nabahlabeleli, noKhenaniya induna yokuthwala kwabahlabeleli; uDavide wayenengubo yamahlombe yelineni.

Bawungenisa umphongolo kaNkulunkulu , bawubeka phakathi netende uDavide ayelimisele wona ; banikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula phambi kukaNkulunkulu.

UDavide e seqedile ukunikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula wababusisa abantu egameni likaJehova.

Ngalolo suku uDavide wayeseqala ukuhlela ukuba uJ ehova abongwe ngesandla sika-Asafa nabafowabo.

Base behamba baya, kwaba yilowo nalowo endlini yakhe; uDavide wabuya ukubusisa indlu yakhe.

Kwathi lapho uDavide esehlezi endlini yakhe , uDavide wathi kuNathani umprofethi: Bheka, mina ngihlala endlini yemisedari , kepha umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova uphansi kwezilenge.

Hamba utshele uDavide inceku yami ukuthi : U sho kanje uJehova , uthi: Awuyikungakhela indlu ukuba ngihlale kuyo,

Ngalokho uyakusho kanje encekwini yami uDavide , uthi: U sho kanje uJehova Sebawoti , uthi: Mina ngakuthatha edlelweni ekwaluseni izimvu ukuba ube ngumbusi wabantu bami u-Israyeli;

UDavide ink osi wayesengena , wahlala phambi kukaJehova , wathi: Ngingubani, Jehova Nkulunkulu , nendlu yami iyini ukuba ungilethe kuze kube lapha na?

UDavide angenezela ngokuthini kuwe ngodumo inceku yakho elwenzelweyo na? Wena uyayazi inceku yakho.

Kwathi emva kwalokho uDavide wa washaya amaFilisti , wawahlula, walithatha iGati nemizana yalo esandleni samaFilisti.

UDavide washaya noHadarezeri, inkosi yaseSoba ngaseHamati, ekuhambeni kwakhe ukuqinisa isandla sakhe ngasemfuleni u-Ewufrathe.

UDavide wamaphuca izinqola eziyinkulungwane , nabamahhashi abayizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa , nemigundatshani eyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili; uDavide wanquma imisipha yawo onke amahhashi ezinqola, washiya awezinqola eziyikhulu kodwa.

Ama-Aramu aseDamaseku esefika ukumsiza uHadarezeri inkosi yaseSoba , uDavide wabulala kuma -Aramu abantu abayizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili nambili.

UDavide wamisa amakhanda e -Aramu laseDamaseku ; ama-Aramu aba yizinceku zikaDavide, athela intela. UJehova wamnqobisa uDavide nomaphi lapho eya khona.

UDavide wathatha izihlangu zegolide ezazisezincekwini zikaHadarezeri , waziletha eJerusalema.

EThibahati naseKhuni imizi kaHadarezeri, uDavide wathatha ithusi eliningi kakhulu uSolomoni enza ngalo ulwandle lwethusi, nezinsika nezitsha zethusi.

Nalezo inkosi uDavide yayizingcwelisela uJehova kanye nesiliva negolide alisusa ezizweni zonke : ku-Edomi, nakuMowabi, nakubantwana bakwa - Amoni, nakumaFilisti, nakuma-Amaleki.

Wamisa amakhanda kwa -Edomi; bonke abakwa -Edomi baba yizinceku zikaDavide. UJehova wamnqobisa uDavide nomaphi lapho eya khona. Izinduna zikaDavide

UDavide wabusa phezu kuka -Israyeli wonke , waphatha ukwahlulela nokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.

UDavide wathi : Ngiyakumenzela umusa uHanuni , indodana kaNahashi, ngokuba uyise wangenzela umusa . UDavide wayesethuma izithunywa ukumduduza ngoyise . Zafika-ke izinceku zikaDavide ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni kuHanuni ukumduduza.

Bahamba, bamtshela uDavide ngalawo madoda . Wathuma ukuwahlangabeza, ngokuba ayenamahloni kakhulu lawo madoda . Yathi inkosi: Hlalani eJeriko, zize zihlume izilevu zenu, bese nibuya.

UDavide esezwile lokho wamthuma uJowabe nempi yonke yamaqhawe.

UDavide watshelwa , wabutha wonke u -Israyeli, wawela iJordani , wawafikela, wahlela impi ukulwa nawo . UDavide esehlelile impi ukulwa nama-Aramu, alwa naye.

Ama-Aramu abaleka phambi kuka -Israyeli; uDavide wabulala kuma -Aramu izinqola eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa nemigundatshani eyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amane, wabulala noShofaki induna yempi.

Emva komnyaka ngesikhathi sokuhlasela kwamakhosi , uJowabe wahola amaqhawe empi , wachitha izwe labantwana bakwa -Amoni, weza wavimbezela iRaba ; kepha uDavide wahlala eJerusalema . UJowabe walinqoba iRaba, walidiliza.

UDavide wathatha umqhele wenkosi yabo ekhanda layo, wafumana isisindo sawo ukuthi sasiyitalenta legolide, itshe eliyigugu likuwo; wabekwa ekhanda likaDavide; wakhipha emzini impango eningi kakhulu.

Wakhipha nabantu ababe phakathi kwawo , wabanquma ngamasaha , nangezibhuqo zensimbi , nangamazembe; wenze njalo uDavide kuyo yonke imizi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni. UDavide nabo bonke abantu babuyela eJerusalema.

USathane wema ukulwa no-Israyeli, wavusa uDavide ukuba abale u-Israyeli.

UDavide wayesethi kuJowabe nasezinduneni zabantu : Hambani nibale u - Israyeli kusukela eBeri Sheba kuze kube kwaDani, nilethe umumo wabo kimi ukuba ngiwazi.

UJowabe wanika uDavide umumo wabantu ababaliweyo ; wonke u -Israyeli wayeyizinkulungwane eziyinkulungwane nezinkulungw ane eziyikhulu abahloma inkemba ; uJuda wayeyizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amane namashumi ayisikhombisa.

UDavide wayesethi kuNkulunkulu : Ngonile kakhulu ngalokho engikwenzileyo; kepha manje, Jehova, mawuthethelele ububi benceku yakho, ngokuba ngintumazele kakhulu.

UDavide wathi kuGadi : Nginosizi kakhulu; mangiwele esandleni sikaJehova, ngokuba umusa wakhe mkhulu kakhulu ; kepha esandleni somuntu mangingaweli kuso.

UDavide wayesephakamisa amehlo akhe , wayibona ingelosi kaJehova imi emkhathini womhlaba nezu lu, inenkemba ehoshiweyo esandleni sayo , yelulelwe phezu kweJerusalema . UDavide namalunga bembethe izindwangu zamasaka bawa ngobuso babo.

UDavide wathi kuNkulunkulu : Akusimi yini owaya leza ukuba abantu babalwe na ? Yimina engonileyo ; ngenze kabi kakhulu, kepha lezi zimvu zenzeni na? Isandla sakho, Jehova Nkulunkulu wami , masibe phezu kwami naphezu kwendlu kababa , singabi phezu kwabantu bakho ukubashaya ngesifo. I-altare elisesibuyeni sika-Orinani

Ingelosi kaJehova yamyala uGadi ukusho kuDavide ukuba uDavide enyuke, amisele uJehova i-altare esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi.

UDavide wenyuka ngezwi likaGadi alikhulumayo egameni likaJehova.

UDavide esefika ku -Orinani, u-Orinani wabuka , wambona uDavide , waphuma esibuyeni, wakhothamela uDavide, ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi.

UDavide wathi ku -Orinani: Nginike indawo yalesi sibuya ukub a ngakhele uJehova i-altare kuyo: uyakunginika yona ngemali epheleleyo ukuba lesi sifo sinqamuke kubantu.

Inkosi uDavide yathi ku -Orinani: Qha, ngiyakukuthenga nokukuthenga ngemali epheleleyo , ngokuba angizukumthathela uJehova okungokwakho , nginikele ngomnikelo wokushiswa ngengikuthole ngeze.

UDavide wayesemnika u -Orinani ngendawo amashekeli angamakhulu ayisithupha egolide ngesisindo.

UDavide wamakhela khona uJehova i -altare, wanikela ngeminikelo yokushiswa nangeminikelo yokuthula , wambiza uJehova ; wamphendula esezulwini ngomlilo e-altare lomnikelo wokushiswa.

Ngaleso sikhathi lapho uDavide esebonile ukuthi uJehova umphendulile esibuyeni sika-Orinani umJebusi, wahlaba khona.

Kepha uDavide wayengenakuya phambi kwalo ukubuza kuNkulunkulu , ngokuba wagebhezelela inkemba yengelosi kaJehova.

UDavide wathi: Le iyindlu kaJehova uNkulunkulu , leli liyi-altare lomnikelo wokushiswa ka-Israyeli.

UDavide wayala ukuba babuthe bonke abafokazi ababe sezweni lakwa - Israyeli, wabeka abakhi ukubaza amatshe axhoziweyo ukuba bakhe indlu kaNkulunkulu.

UDavide walungisa insimbi eningi yezipikili zezivalo zamasango nezokuhlanganisa, kanye nethusi eliningi elingenakulinganiswa,

UDavide wathi: USolomoni in dodana yami usengumfana , usathambile, nendlu eyakwakhelwa uJehova nga iba nkulu , ibatshazwe, ibe negama nodumo emazweni onke ; ngizakuyilungisela. Wayeseyilungisela kakhulu uDavide engakafi.

UDavide wathi kuSolomoni indodana yakhe : Mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela igama likaJehova uNkulunkulu wami indlu.

UDavide wayala zonke izikhulu zakwa-Israyeli ukusiza uSolomoni, wathi:

UDavide wayesemdala , esanelisiwe yizinsuku ; wambeka uSolomoni indodana yakhe abe yinkosi kwa-Israyeli.

izinkulungwane ezine zazingabalindisango; izinkulungwane ezine ziyakudumisa uJehova ngezinto zokubethwa engazenzayo , washo uDavide , ukuba zidumise ngazo.

UDavide wabahlukanisa ngezigaba njengamadodana kaLevi : oGereshoni, noKohati, noMerari.

Ngokuba uDavide wathi : UJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli unike abantu bakhe ukuphumula; uhlezi eJerusalema kuze kube phakade;

UDavide nezinduna zempi base bahlukanisela inkonzo amanye amadodana ka-Asafa, nakaHemani, nakaJeduthuni, ayeyakuprofetha ngamahabhu , nangezingubhu, nangamasimbali; umumo wabantu balo msebenzi wenkonzo wawunje:

Kepha uDavide akabalanga umumo waba neminyaka engamashumi amabili nabangaphansi, ngokuba uJehova wayeshilo ukuthi uyakwandisa u -Israyeli ukuba abe ngangezinkanyezi zezulu.

UJowabe indodana kaSe ruya waqala ukubala , kepha akaqedanga; kwaba khona ulaka ngalokho phezu kuka-Israyeli, nomumo awufakwanga encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yenkosi uDavide.

uJazizi umHagiri wayephethe izimvu . Bonke labo babe yizinduna zemfuyo yenkosi uDavide.

UDavide wabutha zonke izikhulu zakwa -Israyeli, izikhulu zezizwe , nezinduna zezigaba ezazikhonza inkosi , nezinduna zezinkulungwane nezamakhulu, nezinduna zayo yonke imfuyo yenkosi neyamadodana ayo , nezinduna zendlunkulu , namaqhawe, nawo onke am adoda anamandla eJerusalema.

UDavide inkosi wayesema ngezinyawo , wathi: Ngizweni, bafowethu nabantu bakwethu : mina-ke, kwakusenhliziyweni yami ukwakhela umphongolo wesivumelwano sikaJehova indlu yokuphumula neyesena belo sikaNkulunkulu wethu; ngangizilungiselele ukwakha.

UDavide wamnika uSolomoni indodana yakhe isifanekiso sompheme nesezindlu zethempeli , nesengcebo yalo , nesamakamelo alo aphezulu , nesamakamelo alo angaphakathi, nesendlu yesihlalo somusa;

Konke lokh o, washo uDavide , ngikuqondisiwe ngokubhalwe ngesandla sikaJehova, yebo, wonke umsebenzi walesi sifanekiso.

Wayesethi uDavide kuSolomoni indodana yakhe : Qina, ume isibindi, ukwenze; ungesabi, ungabi naluvalo, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu , yebo, uNkulunkulu wami , unawe; akayikukuyeka, akayikukushiya uze uphele wonke umsebenzi wenkonzo yendlu kaJehova.

UDavide inkosi wathi kulo lonke ibandla : USolomoni indodana yami , oyedwa uNkulunkulu amkhethileyo , usengumfana, usathambile, nomsebenzi mkhulu, ngokuba ithempeli alisilo elomuntu kepha ngelikaJehova uNkulunkulu.

Abantu bajabula ngokunikela kwabo ngenhliziyo , ngokuba banikela ngenhliziyo epheleleyo kuJehova; naye uDavide inkosi wajabula ngokujabula okukhulu. Ukubonga nokukhuleka kukaDavide

UDavide wayesebonga uJehova phambi kwebandla lonke ; uDavide wathi: Mawubongwe wena Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli ubaba kuze kube phakade.

UDavide wathi kulo lonke ibandla : Ake nibonge uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu. Lonke ibandla lambonga uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise , lakhothama, lakhuleka kuJehova nasenkosini.

UDavide indodana kaJese wayebusile phezu kwabo bonke abakwa-Israyeli.

Kepha umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uDavide wayewukhuphulile eKiriyati Jeharimi, wawuyisa endaweni uDavide ayewulungisele yona , ngokuba wayewumisele itende eJerusalema.

Wayesethi uSolomoni kuNkulunkulu : Umenzele uDavide ubaba umusa omkhulu, wangibeka inkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

UHiramu wathi futhi : Makabongwe uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli owenza izulu nomhlaba, nowanika uDavide inkosi indodana ehlakaniphileyo, enolwazi nengqondo, eyakwakhela uJehova indlu nendlu yombuso wakhe.

indodana yowesifazane wamadodakazi akwaDani ; uyise wayengumuntu waseTire, owayekwazi ukusebenza ngegolide , nangesiliva, nangethusi, nangensimbi, nangamatshe, nangemithi, nangokububende, nangokuluhlaza, nangelineni elicolekileyo , nangokubomvu, nangokuqopha imiqopho yonke , nangokuqamba yonke imisebenzi yobungcweti , ukuba anikwe indawo kanye nezingcweti zakho nezingcweti zenkosi yami uDavide uyihlo.

USolomoni wabala bonke abezizwe ababesezweni lakwa -Israyeli ngokubalwa uDavide uyi se ayebabalile ngakho ; kwafumaniseka ukuthi babe yizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi ayisihlanu nezinkulungwane ezintathu namakhulu ayisithupha.

ogcine nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ; yebo, owakukhuluma ngomlomo wakho usukugcwalisile ngesandla sakho njengokuba kunjalo namuhla.

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, gcina nenceku yakho uDavide ubaba lokho owakusho kuyo ukuthi : Akuyikunqunywa muntu kuwe emehlweni ami ukuhlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sakwa -Israyeli, uma kuphela abantwana bakho beqaphela indlela yabo uk uba bahambe e mthethweni wami, njengalokho wena uhambe phambi kwami.

Ngalokho, Jehova Nkulunkulu ka -Israyeli, maliqiniseke izwi lakho owalikhuluma encekwini yakho uDavide.

Abapristi bema njengezikhundla zabo kanye namaLev i, benezinto zokubethwa ayezenzile uDavide inkosi ukuba babonge uJehova , ngokuba umusa wakhe umi phakade , lapho uDavide edumisa ngezandla zabo ; abapristi bakhalisa amacilongo ngaphambi kwabo, esemi wonke u-Israyeli.

Wamisa njengomthetho kaDavide uyise izigaba zabapristi enkonzweni yabo, namaLevi ezikhundl eni zawo ukuba adumise , akhonze phambi kwabapristi njengokudingekayo imihla ngemihla , nabalindisango ngezigaba zabo emasangweni ngamasango , ngokuba uDavide umuntu kaNkulunkulu wayeyale kanjalo.

Bekunganifanele ukwazi yini ukuthi uJehova uNkulunkulu ka -Israyeli wanika uDavide umbuso kwa -Israyeli kuze kube phakade , yena namadodana akhe, ngesivumelwano sikasawoti, na?

UJehoyada umpristi wani kela ezinduneni zamakhulu imikhonto namahawu nezihlangu okwakungokwenkosi uDavide, kusendlini kaNkulunkulu.

UJehoyada wamisa ababonisi bendlu kaJehova ngesandla sabapristi bamaLevi uDavide abahlukanisile endlini kaJehova bokunikela ngeminike lo yokushiswa kuJehova njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni kaMose , ngentokozo nangokuhlabelela, njengokuhlela kukaDavide.

Wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova njengakho konke akwenzileyo uDavide uyise.

Uyenza insindiso ibe nkulu enkosini yakhe ; uyenza umusa kogcotshiweyo wakhe uDavide nasenzalweni yakhe kuze kube phakade.

Yakhetha uDavide inceku yayo, yamthabatha ezibayeni zezimvu.

Wathi kubo : Anifundanga yini akwenzayo uDavide msukwana elambile kanye nababe naye

Wathi kubo: Pho, uDavide ngoMoya wambiza kanjani ngokuthi iNkosi, ethi:

Ngakho-ke uma uDavide embiza ngokuthi iNkosi , uyindodana yakhe kanjani na?

Wathi kubo : Anizange nifunde yini akwenzayo uDavide mhla eswele , elambile yena nababe naye

Ubusisiwe umbuso ozayo kababa uDavide. Hosiyana kweliphezulu!

UDavide uqobo lwakhe washo ngoMoya oNgcwele ukuthi : INkosi yathi eNkosini yami : Hlala ngakwesokunene sami , ngize ngibeke izitha zakho phansi kwezinyawo zakho.

UDavide uqobo lwakhe umbiza ngokuthi iNkosi . Pho, uyindodana yakhe kanjani na? Ukusolwa kwababhali (Math. 23: 1; Luk. 20: 45) Isixuku esikhulu sasimuzwa ngokujabula.

Yena uyakuba mkhulu , athiwe iNdodana yoPhezukonke ; iNkosi uNkulunkulu iyakumnika isihlalo sobukhosi sikayise uDavide;

UJesu ebaphendula wathi : Anifundanga yini ngalokho akwenza uDavide mhla elambile yena nababe naye

lokhu uDavide uqobo uthi eNcwadini yamaHubo : INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami,

Ngakho uDavide umbiza ngokuthi iNkosi; pho, uyindodana yakhe kanjani na?

Awushongo yini umbhalo ukuthi uKristu uvela enzalweni kaDavide naseBetlehema, emzaneni lapho wayekhona uDavide na?

Ngokuba uDavide uthi ngaye : Ngayibona iNkosi phambi kwami njalo , ngokuba ingakwesokunene sami, ukuze nginganyakaziswa.

Madoda, bazalwane, ake ngikhulume kini ngokusobala ngokhokho uDavide ukuthi wafa , nokuthi wembelwa , nokuthi ithuna lakhe lisekhona kithi nanamuhla.

Ngokuba uDavide akenyukelanga ezulwini, kepha yena uthi : INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami,

owasho ngoMoya oNgcwele ngomlomo kababa uDavide inceku yakho ukuthi: Kungani ukuba abezizwe baxokozele, nabantu bacebe okuyize, na?

Esemkhiphile wabavusela uDavide abe yinkosi , afakaza ngaye ukuthi : Ngimfumene uDavide kaJesayi , umuntu ongowenhliziyo yami , oyakwenza konke engikuthandayo.

Ngokuba uDavide esekhonzile icebo likaNkulunkulu esizukulwaneni sakhe, walala ubuthongo, wabekwa koyise, wabona ukubola.
