12 Kwasekusithi esizwa lelilizwi esanatha, yena lamakhosi emadumbeni, wathi ezincekwini zakhe: Zimiseni! Zasezizimisa ukumelana lomuzi.
Hagi Ben-hadati'a mago'a kini vahetamine seli nompi aka ti neneno mani'nere Ahapu'ma hiankea eri'za uhanati'naze. Hagi Ben-hadati'ma anankema nentahino'a, sondia vahe'araminkura amanage hu'ne, Ha' hugahunanki retro hiho, hige'za ana Sameria kumapi vahe ha' huzmante'naku retrotra hu'naze.
13 Khangela-ke, umprofethi othile wasondela kuAhabi inkosi yakoIsrayeli, wathi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Uyalibona lelixuku lonke elikhulu yini? Khangela, ngizalinikela esandleni sakho lamuhla, njalo uzakwazi ukuthi mina ngiyiNkosi.
Hagi ana'ma nehazageno'a kasnampa ne'mo'a Israeli kini ne' Ahapunte erava'o huno amanage eme hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hie, ha' vahekamo'za tusi'a vahe'ma mani'nazana kagra ke'nano?

14 UAhabi wasesithi: Ngobani? Wasesithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngamajaha abaphathi bezabelo. Wasesithi: Ngubani ozaqalisa impi? Wasesithi: Wena.
Anagema higeno'a, Ahapu'a kasnampa nera amanage huno antahige'ne, inankna huno anara hugahie, higeno ana kasnampa ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne. Magoke magoke provinsifi sondia vahete'ma kvama hu'naza kasefa sondia vahe'mo'za anara hugahaze. Higeno, iza ana hara agafa hugahie, huno higeno, kagra agafa hugahane huno hu'ne.
15 Wasebala amajaha abaphathi bezabelo, ayengamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amathathu lambili; lemva kwawo wabala bonke abantu, bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli, izinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa.
Hagi anankema Ahapu'ma nentahino'a maka ana provinsiramima kvama hu'naza vahetmimofo kasefa sondia vahetmina kehutru higeno, 232'a vahetami atru hu'naze. Hagi ana amefira 7tauseni'a Israeli vahetmina kehuno eritru hu'ne.
16 Basebephuma emini, uBenihadadi esenathe wadakwa emadumbeni, yena lamakhosi, amakhosi angamatshumi amathathu lambili ayemsiza.
Hagi ferutregema segeno Ben-hadati'a 32'a kini vahetaminena seli nompi mani'ne'za aka tina nene'za agafa hu'za neginagi hu'za mani'naze.
17 Amajaha abaphathi bezabelo asephuma kuqala. UBenihadadi wasethuma, basebemtshela besithi: Kuphume amadoda eSamariya.
Hagi ana'ma nehu'za mani'nageno'a, provinsifima kvama hu'naza vahetmimofo sondia vahetamimo'za hahunaku esera Sameria rankumapintira atirami'za erimpi hu'za e'naze.

18 Wasesithi: Loba ephumele ukuthula, abambeni ephila; loba-ke ephumele impi, abambeni ephila.
Hagi anagema hazageno'a, Ben-hadati'a amanage hu'ne, ha hunaku ege, amnema ege'ma nehanazana zamahe ofri amne zamazeriho.

Hagi provinsima kvama hu'nea vahetmimofo sondia vahetmimo'za egota hazageno, ana zamefira Israeli sondia vahetami e'naze.
20 Babulala, ngulowo lalowo umuntu wakhe. AmaSamariya asebaleka, uIsrayeli wasexotshana lawo, kodwa uBenihadadi inkosi yeSiriya waphunyuka ngebhiza kanye labagadi bamabhiza.
Hagi ha'ma agafama higeno'a mago mago Israeli sondia vahe'mo'a mago mago ha' vahezmimo'ma ha'ma eme huzmantaza vahetmina zamahe vagare'naze. Ana'ma hazageno'a, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za atre'za frazageno, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'za zamavariri'naze. Hianagi Siria kini ne' Ben-hadati'ene karisima eri'za ha'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zanena hosi agumpi mareri'za fre'naze.
21 Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasiphuma, yatshaya amabhiza lenqola, yatshaya phakathi kwamaSiriya ngokubulala okukhulu.
Hianagi Israeli sondia vahetmimo'za vu'za hosi afutamine karisiramine, Siria sondia vahetaminena tusi'a vahe zamahe fri'naze.
22 Lowomprofethi wasesondela enkosini yakoIsrayeli wathi kuyo: Hamba, uziqinise, unanzelele njalo ubone okwenzayo; ngoba ekuthwaseni komnyaka inkosi yeSiriya izakwenyuka imelane lawe.
Hagi ana'ma hutazageno'a kasnampa ne'mo'a kini ne' Ahapunte erava'o huno amanage hu'ne, menima ha'ma hanana antahintahia retro nehunka manio. Na'ankure Siria kini ne'mo'a anaga'a kafufima tra'zamo'ma ete hage knare eno hara eme hugantegahie.
23 Lezinceku zenkosi yeSiriya zathi kuyo: Onkulunkulu babo bangonkulunkulu bezintaba, yikho belamandla kulathi; kube kanti asilwe labo emagcekeni, sibili sizabehlula.
Hagi anagema hutege'za Siria kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za amanage hu'naze, Israeli vahe anumzantmimo'za agonafi anumzantami mani'nazankiza hankavezmimo'a tagri hankavea azeri agatere'za hara tagateraze. Hianagi agupofima ha'ma hanunana zamagateregahune.
24 Ngakho yenza linto: Susa amakhosi, ngulowo lalowo endaweni yakhe, ubeke izinduna esikhundleni sawo;
Hagi amana huo, esera 32'a kini vahetmina zamazeri atrenka, zamagri nontera sondia vahetmimofo kva vahetami zamavarento.
25 njalo wena zibalele ibutho njengebutho eliwileyo kuwe, lebhiza njengebhiza, lenqola njengenqola; njalo sizakulwa labo emagcekeni, isibili sizabehlula. Yasilalela ilizwi labo, yenza njalo.
Ana nehunka zamahe hana'ma hu'nazankna sondia vahetami nezamavarenka, hapima zamahe'nazankna hosi afutamine, karisiramine tamigeta agupofi hara ome huzmantamneno. Hazageno Ben-hadati'a ana antahintahima amiza antahintahirera, knarera huno anaza hu'ne.
26 Kwasekusithi ekuthwaseni komnyaka uBenihadadi wabala amaSiriya, wenyukela eAfeki ekulweni loIsrayeli.
Hagi ete mago kafufima trazama hage knarera, Ben-hadati'a Siria sondia vahetmina zamavareno Afeki kumate Israeli vahe ha' huzmante'naku vu'ne.
27 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli babalwa-ke, banikwa imiphako, basebephuma ukumelana lawo; abantwana bakoIsrayeli bamisa inkamba phambi kwawo njengemihlanjana yembuzi emibili, kodwa amaSiriya agcwala ilizwe.
Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a, Israeli sondia vahetami ke hutru hu'za keonke zazmia retro hute'za Siria sondia vahe'mokizmi ha' huzmante'naku vu'naze. Israeli vahe'mo'za osi'a sipisipi afu kevumoza eri atruma nehazaza hu'za tarefi seli no ome ki'za mani'naze. Hianagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'za ana agupofina mani vite'naze.
28 Kwasekusondela umuntu kaNkulunkulu, wakhuluma enkosini yakoIsrayeli wathi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngenxa yokuthi amaSiriya athe: INkosi inguNkulunkulu wezintaba, kodwa kayisuye uNkulunkulu wezihotsha, ngakho ngizanikela esandleni sakho lelixuku lonke elikhulu, njalo lizakwazi ukuthi mina ngiyiNkosi.
Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a, Anumzamofo eri'za ne'mo'a Israeli kini ne' tava'onte eno amanage eme hu'ne, amanage huno Ra Anumzamo'a hie, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za amanage haze, Ra Anumzamo'a agupofi anumza omani'neanki, agonafi anumza mani'ne hu'za hazankina, ama tusi'a sondia vahera zamahe hana hanugenka, Nagrikura Ra Anumzane hunka kenka antahinka hugahane huno hu'ne.
29 Basebemisa inkamba, enye iqondene lenye, insuku eziyisikhombisa. Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesikhombisa impi yadibana; abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebetshaya ngosuku lunye amaSiriya azinkulungwane ezilikhulu ahamba ngenyawo.
Hagi 7ni'a knamofo agu'afina Siria sondia vahe'mo'za kantu kaziga seli nona ki'za manizageno, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'za kama kaziga seli nona kiza mani'naze. Hagi namba 7nima hiankna zupa hara agafa higeno, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'za mopafima nevu'za ha'ma nehaza Siria sondia vahera 100 tauseni'a zamahe fri'naze.
30 Labaseleyo babalekela eAfeki emzini; lomduli wawela phezu kwamadoda ayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa ayesele. UBenihadadi laye wabaleka, wangena emzini ekamelweni elingaphakathi.
Hagi mago'a sondia vahe'mo'za fre'za Afeki rankumapi ufrazageno, ana kumate'ma vihuma hu'za mareri'naza havemo fraguvaziramino 27 tauseni'a sondia vahera zamahe vagare'ne. Hagi Ben-hadati'enena freno viazamo ana kumapina mago nomofona, vahe frakizane huno agu'afinka hunaragintenefi ome fraki'ne.
31 Lezinceku zakhe zathi kuye: Khangela-ke, sizwile ukuthi amakhosi endlu yakoIsrayeli angamakhosi alesihawu; ake sifake amasaka enkalweni zethu, lamagoda emakhanda ethu, siphumele enkosini yakoIsrayeli; mhlawumbe izagcina umphefumulo wakho uphile.
Hagi Ben-hadatina ugota eri'za vahetmimo'za amanage hu'za asami'naze, Israeli kini vahetmina vaheku zamasunku hu kini vahe mani'naze hu'za hazageta antahinone. E'ina hu'negu tagra zmasunkuma hu'zama nentaniza atafa kukena tafafafina ruganegita tanuntera nofi ruganegita Israeli kini netera vanune. Hagi e'ina'ma hanunkeno'a ontahe tatrenigeta manigahune.
32 Basebethandela amasaka enkalweni zabo, lamagoda emakhanda abo, bafika enkosini yakoIsrayeli, bathi: Inceku yakho uBenihadadi ithi: Ake ungiyekele ngiphile. Yasisithi: Usaphila yini? Ungumfowethu.
Anage nehu'za zamasunku'ma nehu'zama nentaniza atafa kukena zmafafafina rugagi'za nentaniza, zamanuntera nofi ruganegi'za Israeli kini nete vu'za amanage ome hu'naze, Ben-hadati'a eri'za neka'amo'a amanage hie, muse hugantoanki onahenka natregena mani'neno huno hie.

Hagi anankema nentahiza e'i knare ke hie hu'za nehu'za amanage hu'naze, Izo Ben-hadati'a negafu'e, hu'za hazageno amanage huno Israeli kini ne'mo'a hu'ne. Hagi vuta ome avreta eho, huno huzmante'ne. Hagi Ben-hadati'ma atiramino egeno'a, (Ahapu'a) higeno karisifi mareri'ne.
34 Wasesithi kuyo: Imizi ubaba ayithatha kuyihlo ngizayibuyisela; futhi ungazenzela izitalada eDamaseko njengokwenza kukababa eSamariya. Khona uAhabi wathi: Mina ngizakuyekela uhambe ngalesisivumelwano. Yasisenza laye isivumelwano yamyekela ehamba.
Hagi ana karisifi mareriteno'a amanage huno Israeli kini nera asami'ne, Nenfa'ma kagri negafama aheno hanare'nea kumatmina ete maka kaminugenka, nenfa'ma Sameria kumate'ma hu'neaza hunka fenoma mizaseno ete fenoma zagore'ma atre kumara Damaskasi kumate ana zana tro hugahane.

35 Umuntu othile wamadodana abaprofethi wasesithi kumakhelwane wakhe ngelizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu: Ake ungitshaye. Kodwa lowomuntu wala ukumtshaya.
Hagi ana'ma hutakeno'a, kasnampa vahe kevufinti Ra Anumzamo'a mago kasnampa ne' asamigeno otino mago kasnampa nekura naho huno hu'neanagi, ana ne'mo'a ohe'ne.
