1 Kwathi entwasa, ngesikhathi sokuphuma kwezimpi zamakhosi ukuyakulwa, uJowabi wakhokhela amabutho ayehlomile. Watshaya wabhuqa ilizwe lama-Amoni waze wayavimbezela ilizwe laseRabha, kodwa uDavida wasala eJerusalema. UJowabi wahlasela iRabha wayitshiya ingamanxiwa.
Oo isla xilligii sannaddii dambe, markay boqorradu dagaalka u soo bixi jireen ayaa Yoo'aab kaxaystay xooggii ciidanka oo dhan oo baabbi'iyey dalkii reer Cammoon, oo haddana intuu soo kacay ayuu Rabbaah hareereeyey. Yoo'aab wuxuu dagaal ku dhiftay Rabbaah, wuuna afgembiyey, laakiinse Daa'uud baa Yeruusaalem iska joogay.
2 UDavida wathatha umqhele owawusekhanda lenkosi yabo isisindo sawo sasilithalenta legolide, uceciswe ngamatshe aligugu, umqhele wasufakwa ekhanda likaDavida. Wathatha impango enengi kakhulu kulelodolobho,
Markaasaa Daa'uud boqorkoodii madaxiisii taajkii ka qaaday, oo wuxuu ogaaday in miisaankiisu yahay talanti dahab ah, dhagxan qaali ahna wuu lahaa, markaasaa Daa'uud madaxa loo saaray. Oo wuxuu dibadda u soo bixiyey dhacii magaalada oo aad iyo aad u badnaa.
3 njalo abantu ababelapho wabasusa wabasa lapho ababezasebenza khona gadalala ngamasaha, ngamapiki ensimbi kanye lamahloka. Lokhu uDavida wakwenza kuwo wonke amadolobho ama-Amoni. Kwathi uDavida ngokwakhe kanye lamabutho akhe wonke babuyela eJerusalema.
Dibadduu u soo bixiyey dadkii magaalada ku jiray, oo wuxuu hoos dhigay miinshaaro iyo biro wax lagu qodo, iyo faasas. Oo magaalooyinkii reer Cammoon oo dhan Daa'uud saasuu u wada galay. Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo dadkii oo dhammu ku noqdeen Yeruusaalem.
4 Ngokuqhubeka kwesikhathi, kwaqhamuka impi yamaFilistiya, eGezeri. Ngalesosikhathi uSibhekhayi umHushathi wabulala uSiphayi, omunye wabosendo lwamaRefayi kwaba yikwehlulwa kwamaFilistiya.
Oo taas dabadeed waxay noqotay in reer Falastiin haddana Geser lagula diriray, oo Sibbekay oo reer Xushaad ahaa wuxuu dilay Sifay, oo ahaa mid ka mid ah wiilashii Rafaa, oo iyagiina waa la jebiyey.
5 Kweyinye impi lamaFilistiya, u-Elihanani indodana kaJayiri wabulala uLahimi umfowabo kaGoliyathi umGithi, owayelomkhonto ololuthi olunjengolomeluki.
Oo haddana reer Falastiin waa lala diriray, oo Elxaanaan ina Yaaciir wuxuu dilay Laxmii oo ahaa Goli'ad kii reer Gad walaalkiis, oo samayda warankiisuna waxay le'ekayd dharsameeyaha looxiisa.
6 Kanti njalo kwenye impi, eyalwelwa eGathi, kwakulendoda enkulu kakhulu ileminwe eyisithupha esandleni ngasinye, lamazwane ayisithupha enyaweni ngalunye, sekubalwa konke ndawonye kungamatshumi amabili lane. Laye wayengowosendo lukaRafa.
Oo haddana waxaa dagaal ka dhacay Gad, halkaasna waxaa joogay nin aad u dheer, oo farihiisa gacmeed iyo farihiisa lugeedna waxay ahaayeen afar iyo labaatan, oo gacan kasta wuxuu ku lahaa lix, cag kastana wuxuu ku lahaa lix, oo isna wuxuu u dhashay Rafaa.
7 Ngokuchothoza kwakhe abako-Israyeli, uJonathani indodana kaShimeya, umfowabo kaDavida, wambulala.
Oo isna markuu reer binu Israa'iil caayay waxaa isagii dilay Yoonaataan oo uu Daa'uud walaalkiisii Shimcaa ahaa dhalay.
8 Laba ngabosendo lukaRafa eGathi, njalo bafela ezandleni zikaDavida lamabutho akhe.
Kuwanu waxay Rafaa ugu dhasheen Gad, oo waxay ku dhinteen Daa'uud gacantiisii iyo gacantii addoommadiisa.
