24 Tsopano Davide anali atakhala pakati pa zipata ziwiri.+ Pa nthawiyi mlonda+ anakwera padenga la mpanda kuchipata. Ndiyeno atakweza maso anaona munthu akuthamanga ali yekha.

17 Ku Yezereeliko,+ mlonda+ amene anaimirira pansanja+ anaona gulu lankhondo la Yehu likubwera mwaliwiro. Nthawi yomweyo mlondayo anati: “Ndikuona gulu la amuna likubwera mwaliwiro.” Pamenepo Yehoramu anati: “Uza munthu wokwera hatchi kuti apite kukakumana nawo. Akawafunse kuti, ‘Kodi mukubwerera zamtendere?’”+

8 Kenako anafuula mwamphamvu ngati kubangula kwa mkango,+ kuti: “Inu Yehova, ine ndimaimirira tsiku lonse pansanja ya mlonda, ndipo usiku uliwonse ndimakhala pamalo anga olonderapo.+

12 Kwezerani mpanda wa Babulo mtengo wa chizindikiro.+ Wonjezerani alonda+ ndipo ikani alondawo pamalo awo. Konzekeretsani omenya nkhondo mobisalira anzawo.+ Pakuti Yehova waganiza zoti achite ndipo adzachitira anthu okhala ku Babulo zimene wanena.”+

8 Pa nthawi ina, mlonda+ wa Efuraimu anali ndi Mulungu wanga.+ Koma tsopano panjira zonse za mneneri,+ pali msampha wa wosaka mbalame.+ M’nyumba ya Mulungu wake muli chidani chachikulu.
