12 uHazayeli wathi: “Inkosi yami ikhalelani?” U-Elisha waphendula wathi: “Ngikhaliswa yikuthi ngiyabazi ubunzima ozabehlisela abako-Israyeli.+ Uzatshisa amadolobho abo avikelwe ngemiduli, ubulale amabutho abo athenjiweyo, utaklazele phansi abantwababo futhi udabule lezisu zabesifazana abazithweleyo.”+

32 Ngalezonsuku uJehova waqalisa ukuthathela abako-Israyeli ilizwe labo kancane kancane. UHazayeli waqhubeka ebahlasela kulo lonke elako-Israyeli,+ 33 kusukela eJodani ngasempumalanga, lakulo lonke ilizwe leGiliyadi, koGadi, koRubheni lakoManase.+ Wayebahlasela kusukela e-Aroweri eseduze lesigodi se-Arinoni kusiyafika eGiliyadi leBhashani.+

7 UJehowahazi wasala lamabutho angu-10 000, labagadi bamabhiza abangu-50 lezinqola zempi ezilitshumi kuphela ngoba inkosi yeSiriya yayibatshaye yababhuqa+ basala bengathi luthuli esizeni* ngesikhathi sokubhula amabele.+
