2 “Bala+ lonke ibandla lako-Israyeli,* umuntu munye ngamunye kusiya ngezimuli zabo langezindlu zaboyise, kusiya ngenani lamabizo abo bonke abesilisa.

10 Kodwa uDavida wathi esebale abantu, inhliziyo yakhe yamsola*+ kakhulu. Yikho wathi kuJehova: “Ngonile+ kakhulu ngokwenza lokhu. Khathesi Jehova, ngicela uyixolele+ inceku yakho ngoba yenze ubuthutha obukhulu.”+

15 Ngakho uJehova wehlisela abantu bako-Israyeli isifo esibulalayo+ futhi wabulala abantu kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwafika isikhathi esasibekiwe. Kwafa+ abantu abangu-70 000 kusukela koDani kusiyafika eBheri-shebha.+
