U-Athaliya unina ka-Ahaziya esebonile ukuthi indodana yakhe ifile, wasuka wachitha yonke imbewu yenkosi.

Izinceku zayo zayisusa ngenqola eMegido ifile , zayiyisa eJerusalema , zayimbela ethumeni layo . Abantu bezwe bamthatha uJeh owahazi indodana kaJosiya, bamgcoba, bambeka inkosi esikhundleni sikayise. OJehowahazi noJehoyakimi bangamakhosi kwaJuda

Kwakhala ku-Elisha owesifazane othile wabafazi bamadodana abaprofethi, wathi: Inceku yakho , indoda yami , ifile; wena uyazi ukuthi incek u yakho yayimesaba uJehova ; sekufike umtshelekisi ukuzithathela abafana bami ababili babe yizigqila.

Kepha u-Athaliya, unina ka-Ahaziya, esebonile ukuthi indodana yakhe ifile wasuka wachitha yonke imbewu yobukhosi yendlu kaJuda.

Ngubani owabulala u -Abimeleki indodana kaJerubesheti na ? Angithi owesifazane esogangeni wamphonsa ngemboko dwe, wafa eThebesi , na? Nisondeleleni kangako ogangeni na ? uthi: Inceku yakho u-Uriya umHeti ifile nayo.

Abacibishelayo bacibishela izinceku zakho besogangeni; ezinye izinceku zenkosi zifile, nenceku yakho u-Uriya umHeti ifile nayo.

UJowabe wathi kuye : Awuyikuba ngumbiki wendaba namuhla , kepha uyakubika ngolunye usuku ; namuhla awuyikubika lutho , ngokuba indodana yenkosi ifile.

Zalinda zaze zajabha; bheka, akayivulanga iminyango yekamelo eliphezulu; ngalokho zathatha ukhiye, zayivula; bheka, inkosi yazo yayiwele phansi ifile.

Bamhleka usulu, bazi ukuthi ifile.
