12 Bathi, Xoka; khawusixelele. Wathi, Ùthe, wathi ukuthetha kum, Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Ndikuthambisile ukuba ube ngukumkani kumaSirayeli.
13 Bakhawuleza, wathabatha elowo ingubo yakhe, wayibeka phantsi kwakhe uYehu ezinyukweni kanye, bavuthela izigodlo, bathi, UYehu ngukumkani!
14 UYehu, unyana kaYehoshafati, unyana kaNimshi, wamceba ke uYoram. Ke kaloku uYoram ubeyilinda iRamoti yaseGiliyadi, yena namaSirayeli onke, ngenxa kaHazayeli ukumkani wakwa-Aram;
15 ke ukumkani, uYoram, ubebuyele eYizereli, ukuba anyangwe amanxeba awawafumana kuma-Aram, esilwa noHazayeli ukumkani wakwa-Aram. Wathi uYehu, Ukuba kukuthanda kwenu, makungaphumi kusinde mntu kulo mzi, aye kuxela eYizereli.
16 Wakhwela uYehu enqwelweni, waya eYizereli; ngokuba uYoram ebelele khona. Ke uAhaziya ukumkani wamaYuda wehla, waya kumbona uYoram.
17 Ke kaloku umlindi, obemi phezu kwenqaba eYizereli, wabona impi kaYehu ekuzeni kwakhe, wathi, Ndibona impi. Wathi uYoram, Thabatha okhwele ihashe, umthume aye kubakhawulela, athi, Luxolo na?
18 Waya kumkhawulela loo mkhweli-hashe, wathi, Útsho ukumkani ukuthi, Luxolo na? Wathi uYehu, Yintoni na enawe noxolo? Jikela emva kwam. Waxela umlindi, wathi, Umthunywa uye wafika kubo, ke akabuyi.
