u-Obili wakwa-Ishmayeli wayephethe amakamela ; uJehedeya umMeronoti wayephethe izimbongolo;

UDavide wababulala kusukela ekuhweleleni kuze kuhlwe ngangomuso , akwaphunyuka muntu kubo , kuphela izinsizwa ezingamakhulu amane ezazikhwela amakamela, zabaleka.

AbakwaMidiyani nama-Amaleki nabo bonke abasempumalanga bahlala esigodini njengesikhonyane ngobuningi ; amakamela abo ayengenakubalwa , engangesihlabathi esisogwini lolwandle ngobuningi.

amakamela abo ayengamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu nanhlanu ; izimbongolo zaziyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha namakhulu ayisikhombisa namashumi amabili.

Isiprofetho ngezilwane zaseNingizimu. Badabula izwe losizi nelokuhlupheka, lapha kuvela khona ibhubesi nebhubesikazi , ibululu nenyoka endizayo , bethwala imfuyo yabo emihlane yezimbongol o nengcebo yabo phezu kwamalunda amakamela bakuyise kubantu abangenansizakalo.

Ubuningi bamakamela buyakukusibekela , amakamela amasha akwaMidiyani nase -Efa; bonke abaseSheba bayakuza , balethe igolide nenhlaka, bamemezele izindumiso zikaJehova.

Inceku yayisithatha amakamela ayishumi emakameleni enkosi yayo , yahamba, izinto zonke ezinhle zenkosi yayo zisesandleni sayo ; yasuka, yaya eMesopotamiya emzini kaNahori.

Yaguqisa amakamela ayo ngaphandle komuzi ngasemthonjeni wamanzi kusihlwa, ngesikhathi abaphuma ngaso abesifazane ukuyokukha amanzi.

Yashesha yathululela imbiza yayo emqengqeni , yabuye yaphuthuma emthonjeni ukuyokukha, yakhelela onke amakamela ayo.

Kwathi amakamela eseqedile ukuphuz a, indoda yathatha icici legolide , isisindo salo siyinxenye yeshekeli , namasongo amabili ezandla zayo , isisindo sawo singamashekeli ayishumi egolide, yathi:

Kwathi esebone icici namasongo ezandleni zikadadewabo , wezwa amazwi kaRebeka udadewabo, ethi: Washo njalo lo muntu kimi, waya kulowo muntu; bheka, wayemi ngakuwo amakamela ngasemthonjeni.

Wayesengena endlini lowo muntu , wakhumula amakamela , wapha amakamela utshani nefoliji , waletha namanzi okugeza izinyawo zakhe nezinyawo zamadoda anaye.

URebeka wasuka namantombazana akhe ; bagibela amakamela , balandela indoda; inceku yamthatha uRebeka, yamuka.

U-Isaka waphuma ntambama ukuyozindla endle ; waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona; bheka, kweza amakamela.

Ngiyakwenza iRaba libe yindawo yokuhlala amakamela , abantwana bakwa- Amoni babe yindawo yokubuthisa kwezimvu, nazi ukuthi nginguJehova.

Amakamela aso ayakuba yimpango , nezinkomo zaso eziningi ziyakuphangwa. Ngiyakubahlakazela emimoyeni yonke , bonke abadilingiwe emaceleni amakhanda abo , ngehlisele phezu kwab o izingozi ezivela nxazonke, usho uJehova.

Esakhuluma lowo , kwafika nomunye , wathi: AmaKaledi enza amaviyo amathathu, ahlasela amakamela , awathatha, azibulala izinceku ngosiko lwenkemba; mina ngedwa kuphela ngisindile, ukuze ngikubikele.

amakamela ayengamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu nanhlanu ; izimbongolo zaziyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha namakhulu ayisi khombisa namashumi amabili.
