27 Wathi uMikaya, Ukuba uthe wabuya wabuya unoxolo, woba uYehova akathethanga ngam. Wathi, Yivani nonke, zizwe ziphela.
28 Wenyuka ke ukumkani wakwaSirayeli noYehoshafati, ukumkani wakwaYuda, baya eRamoti yaseGiliyadi.
29 Wathi ukumkani wakwaSirayeli kuYehoshafati, Ndiya kuzenza mntu wumbi, ndingene ekulweni; yambatha iingubo zakho wena. Wazenza mntu wumbi ukumkani wakwaSirayeli, bangena ekulweni.
30 Ke ukumkani wakwa-Aram wabawisela umthetho abathetheli beenqwelo zokulwa abenazo, wathi, Ize ningalwi nomncinane, nomkhulu; yilwani nokumkani wakwaSirayeli yedwa.
31 Kwathi, bakumbona uYehoshafati abathetheli beenqwelo zokulwa, bathi bona, Ngukumkani wakwaSirayeli; bamrhawula, beza kulwa naye. Wakhala uYehoshafati; uYehova wamnceda, uThixo wabasonga kuye.
32 Kwathi bakubona abathetheli beenqwelo zokulwa, ukuba àsingukumkani wakwaSirayeli, babuya ekumsukeleni.
33 Wathi umntu watyeda isaphetha efunisela, watola ukumkani wakwaSirayeli ekuhlanganeni kwengubo yentsimbi namasondo ayo. Wathi kumqhubi wenqwelo yakhe yokulwa, Jika izandla zakho, undikhuphele ngaphandle komkhosi, ngokuba ndingxwelerhiwe.
