6 Kepha u-Adoni Bezeki wabaleka; bamxosha, bambamba, bamnquma izithupha nawoqukula.
7 Wayesethi u-Adoni Bezeki: “Amakhosi angamashumi ayisikhombisa enqunyiwe izithupha nawoqukula acosha ukudla kwawo phansi kwetafula lami; njengalokho ngenzile, kanjalo uNkulunkulu uphindisele kimi.” Bamyisa eJerusalema, wafela khona.
8 Abantwana bakwaJuda balwa neJerusalema, balithatha, balichitha ngosiko lwenkemba, bathungela umuzi ngomlilo.
9 Ngasemuva behla abantwana bakwaJuda ukuba balwe namaKhanani ayakhe ezintabeni, nangaseningizimu, nasenzansi.
10 UJuda wayesehlasela amaKhanani ayakhe eHebroni igama leHebroni laliyiKiriyati Araba kuqala babulala oSheshayi, no-Ahimani, noTalimayi.
11 Wasuka lapho, waya kwabakhe eDebiri; igama leDebiri laliyiKiriyati Seferi kuqala.
12 UKalebi wathi: “Onqoba iKiriyati Seferi, alithathe, yena ngiyakumnika u-Akisa indodakazi yami abe ngumkakhe.”
