26 Ho itswe ke morena: Kenyang monna enwa teronkong, le mo fepe bohobe ba matshwenyeho le metsi a matshwenyeho, ke be ke boye ka kgotso.
27 Mikea a re: Ha o ka boya ka kgotso, etlaba Jehova ha a ka a bua ka nna. Hape a re: Utlwang tsena, lona setjhaba sohle!
28 Yaba morena wa Iseraele o futuhela Ramothe-Gileade, a ena le Josafate, morena wa Juda.
29 Morena wa Iseraele a re ho Josafate: Nke ke ikgakanye, ke ye jwalo ntweng; wena, o apare kobo tsa hao. Morena wa Iseraele a ikgakanya, mme ba kena ntweng.
30 Haele morena wa Siria, o ne a laetse balaodi ba makoloi ao a nang le wona, a re: Le se ke la lwantsha e monyenyane, kapa e moholo, haese morena wa Iseraele a nnotshi.
31 Eitse ha balaodi ba makoloi ba bona Josafate, ba re: Ruri morena wa Iseraele ke eo. Ba kgelohela ho ya mo lwantsha; empa Josafate a meketsa; Jehova a mo thusa, mme Modimo wa ba hlohlelletsa hore ba mo tlohele.
