ngokuba uDavide w enza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova , kaphambukanga ngalutho amyala ngalo zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe, kuphela endabeni ka-Uriya umHeti.

no-Uriya umHeti, noZabadi indodana ka-Ahilayi,

UDavide wayesethatha washo ku -Ahimeleki umHeti naku -Abishayi indodana kaSeruya , umfowabo kaJowabe , ethi: Ngubani oyakwehla nami ukuya kuSawule ekamu na? U-Abishayi wathi: Ngiyakwehla nawe.

Abantu bomuzi baphuma balwa noJowabe ; kwawa abantu abathile ezincekwini zikaDavide; wafa naye u-Uriya umHeti.

Ngubani owabulala u -Abimeleki indodana kaJerubesheti na ? Angithi owesifazane esogangeni wamphonsa ngemboko dwe, wafa eThebesi , na? Nisondeleleni kangako ogangeni na ? uthi: Inceku yakho u-Uriya umHeti ifile nayo.

Abacibishelayo bacibishela izinceku zakho besogangeni; ezinye izinceku zenkosi zifile, nenceku yakho u-Uriya umHeti ifile nayo.

UDavide wathuma wabuza ngalowo wesifazane . Omunye wathi : Lowo akasiye uBati Sheba yini, indodakazi ka-Eliyamu, umka-Uriya umHeti, na?

UDavide wayesethumela kuJowabe ngokuthi : Thuma kimi u -Uriya umHeti. UJowabe wamthuma u-Uriya kuDavide.

Ngalokho inkemba ayiyikusuka endlini yakho , ngokuba ungidelele , wathatha umka-Uriya umHeti ukuba abe ngumkakho.

Udeleleleni izwi likaJehova ukuba wenze okubi emehlweni akhe na ? Ubulele u -Uriya umHeti ngenkemba , wathatha umkakhe abe ngumkakho , wambulala ngenkemba yabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

no-Uriya umHeti, bengamashumi amathathu nesikhombisa bebonke.

U-Efroni wayehlezi phakathi kwabantwana bakwaH eti: u-Efroni umHeti wamphendula u -Abrahama ezindlebeni zabantwana bakwaHeti phambi kwabo bonke abangena esangweni lomuzi wakhe, wathi:

O-Isaka no -Ishmayeli amadodana akhe bammbela emhumeni waseMakaphela, ensimini ka-Efroni indodana kaSowari umHeti engaphambi kweMamre,

Kwathi u -Esawu eseneminyaka engamashumi amane , wathatha umfazi uJuditi indodakazi kaBeri umHeti noBasemati indodakazi ka-Eloni umHeti.

U-Esawu wazithathela abafazi kuw o amadodakazi aseKhanani : u-Ada indodakazi ka -Eloni umHeti , no-Oholibama indodakazi ka -Ana, indodakazi kaSibeyoni umHivi,

Wabayala, wathi kubo: Mina sengiyakubuthelwa kubantu bami; ngimbeleni kobaba emhumeni osensimini ka-Efroni umHeti,

umhume osensimini yaseMakaphela eliphambi kweMamre ezweni laseKhanani, awuthenga u-Abrahama kanye nensimu ku -Efroni umHeti, ube yindawo yakhe yokumbela;

ngokuba amadodana akhe amyisa ezweni laseKhanani , ammbela emhumeni wasensimini yaseMakaphela , u-Abrahama awuthenga kanye nensimu ku-Efroni umHeti, ube yindawo yokumbela, ngaphambi kweMamre.
