4 Okathi Ixi-boxethi+ mwaana a Sawuli aiwale awe wiira Abineri aahiiviwa oHebroni,+ olipa murima waahimmalela,* nave aisarayeli ootheene yaahoova. 2 Yaahikhala alopwana anli yaari anamwane a Sawuli yaahoolela anakhotto: Mmosa aihaniwa Bayanahi, nave mukina aihaniwa Rekabi. Awo yaari anamwane a Rimoni a oBeerothi, a nihimo na Beniyamini. (OBeerothi+ waasuweliwa okhala muttetthe wa nihimo na Beniyamini. 3 Atthu a oBeerothi, yaahitthyawela oXitayimi,+ anakhala weiwo ntoko anamurwa mpakha olelo-va.)

4 Yonathani+ mwaana a Sawuli, aahikhalana mwanawe mwaamulopwana aarakanle metto soomiili.+ Mwaana owo aarina iyaakha thanu okathi saaruuhiwe aya ihapari saakhuma oYezireyeli+ saahimya wiira Sawuli ni Yonathani yaahikhwa. Vano ole aamukhapelela aahimukuxa moowaakuveya otthyawaka okathi oovaawe, nto mwaana owo aahimora orakala. Nsina nawe iihaniwa Mefiboxeti.+

5 Anamwane a Rimoni a oBeerothi, Rekabi ni Bayanahi, yaahirowa owannyawe Ixi-Boxethi, nsuwa nluttunwe ene, okathi owo aaphumurya awe othana eriyari. 6 Awo yaahikela mpaani, anakhala wiira yaarowela etiriku. Nuumala-vo yaahimuhoma erukulu, nto Rekabi ni munnawe Bayanahi+ yaahitthyawa. 7 Okathi yaavolonwe aya mpaani, yaahimphwanya okwartu wawe, ommaathale ene vakhaamani. Nto yaahimutuphela ni yaahimwiiva, nuumala-vo yaahiikittha muru awe. Awo yaahikuxa muru owo, yeetta ohiyu wootheene, attharaka estaraata ya wAraba. 8 Awo yaahikuxa muru, wa Ixi-Boxethi+ amuroihela mwene Davidi oHebroni anamuleela mwene ariki: “Ola muru wa Ixi-Boxethi mwaana a Sawuli nwanani anyu,+ yoowo aaphavela owiivani.+ Nihiku nla na olelo, Yehova oomweemererya pwiyaka mwene, omunlela ikuhu Sawuli ni osuulu awe”.

9 Masi Davidi aahimwaakhula Rekabi ni munnawe Bayanahi anamwane a Rimoni a oBeerothi, oriki: “Ntoko siisaale Yehova onikhala awe, yoowo okooponle mmaxakhani mootheene,+ 10 okathi mulopwana aarwaale awe okileela, oriki: ‘Sawuli ohookhwa’,+ uupuwelaka wiira aakiruuhela ihapari sooreera, miyo kaahinvara kimwiiva+ oSikilaki. Eyo ti etthu kaamulivenrye aka mulopwana ole aakiruuhenle ihapari iye! 11 Vaatepa-tho nyuwo atakhali mmwiivale mulopwana a xariya owannyawe, vakhaamani vawe! Miyo kinoowunlelani ikuhu mwaha wa mulopwana omwiivale anyu.+ Tthiri, nyuwo muhaana okhwa”. 12 Vano, Davidi aahaaruma alopwana awe wiira ewiive.+ Awo yaahiwiikitthasa matata ni metto,+ yaatthukwelela ntthiya na oHebroni. Masi, yaahikuxa muru wa Ixi-Boxethi, avitha oHebroni, mahiye a Abineri.
