30. UDavide wenyuka eqhineni leminquma, enyuka elila, egqubuthele intloko, ehamba engenazimbadada ezinyaweni zakhe; bonke abantu abenabo begqubuthele elowo intloko yakhe; benyuka, benyuka belila.
31. Kwaxelwa kuDavide, kwathiwa, UAhitofele ukubacebisi baka-Abhisalom. Wathi uDavide, Yehova, khawulitshitshise icebo lika-Ahitofele.
32. Kwathi, akuya kufika uDavide encotsheni, apho bekusakuqutyudwa khona kuThixo, nanko uHushayi umArki emkhawulela, ekrazule ingubo yakhe, enomhlaba entloko.
33. UDavide wathi kuye, Ukuba uthe wagqithela nam, woba ngumthwalo kum;
34. ke ukuba uthe wabuyela kuwo umzi, wathi kuAbhisalom, Ndoba ngumkhonzi wakho, kumkani; ndibe ndifudula ndingumkhonzi kayihlo, ngoko ndingumkhonzi wakho: wònditshitshisela ke icebo lika-Ahitofele.
