22 Kwathi amakamela eseqedile ukuphuza, indoda yathatha icici legolide, isisindo salo siyinxenye yeshekeli,* namasongo amabili ezandla zayo, isisindo sawo singamashekeli ayishumi egolide, yathi:
23 “Wena uyindodakazi kabani na? Ake ungitshele. Kukhona indawo endlini kayihlo ukuba silale na?”
24 Yathi kuyo: “Indodakazi kaBetuweli indodana kaMilka, amzalela yona uNahori.”
25 Yaqhubeka yathi kuyo: “Sinotshani nefoliji eliningi, nendawo yokulala.”
26 Indoda yayisikhothama, yakhuleka kuJehova,
27 yathi: “Makabongwe uJehova, uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami u-Abrahama, ongayekile ukwenzela inkosi yami umusa neqiniso; uJehova ungiholile mina endleleni kuze kube sendlini yabafowabo benkosi yami.”
28 Kepha intombazana yagijima, yatshela abendlu kanina lezo zinto.
