23 Ndipo zitapita zaka ziwiri zathunthu, kunali kuti Abisalomu anali: nao osenga nkhosa zace ku Baalahazore pafupi pa Efraimu; ndipo Abisalomu anaitana ana amuna onse a mfumu.
24 Abisalomu nafika kwa mfumu nati, Onani, ine mnyamata, wanu ndiri nao osenga nkhosa; inu mfumu ndi anyamata anu mupite nane mnyamata wanu.
25 Ndipo mfumu inati kwa Abisalomu, lai mwana wanga, tisapite tonse, kuti tingakucurukire. Ndipo iye anaiumirira koma inakana kupita; koma inamdalitsa.
26 Pomwepo Abisalomu anati, Ngati nkutero, mulole mbale wanga Amnoni apite nafe. Ndipo mfumu inanena naye, iye apitirenji nawe?
27 Koma Abisalomu anaiumirira iyo, nilola kuti Amnoni ndi ana amuna onse a mfumu apite naye.
28 Ndipo Abisalomu anakamulira anyamata ace, nati, Inu mukhale maso, mtima wa Amnoni ukasekera ndi vinyo, ndipo ine ndikati kwa inu, Kanthani Amnoni; pamenepo mumuphe, musaope; sindine ndakulamulirani inu mulimbike, citani camuna.
29 Ndipo anyamata a Abisalomu anamcitira Amnoni monga umo Abisalomu anawalamulira. Pomwepo ana amuna onse a mfumu ananyamuka, nakwera munthu yense pa nyuru yace, nathawa.
