8. Athi amadoda amakhulu aseGiliyadi kuYifeta, Kukho kaloku le nto sibuyela kuwe, ukuba uhambe nathi, ulwe noonyana baka-Amon, ube yintloko kuthi, kubemi bonke baseGiliyadi.
9. Wathi uYifeta kumadoda amakhulu aseGiliyadi, Ukuba nithe nandibuyisa, ukuze ndilwe noonyana baka-Amon, uYehova wabanikela kum, mna ndoba yintloko kuni na?
10. Athi amadoda amakhulu aseGiliyadi kuYifeta, UYehova makabe lingqina phakathi kwethu; inene siya kwenjenjalo ngokwelizwi lakho.
11. Wahamba ke uYifeta namadoda amakhulu aseGiliyadi; abantu bammisa phezu kwabo, waba yintloko nomphathi. Wawathetha uYifeta onke amazwi akhe phambi koYehova eMizpa.
12. UYifeta wasusa abathunywa, baya kukumkani woonyana baka-Amon, wathi, Yintoni na enam nawe, uzé kum nje ukuba ulwe nelizwe lam?
13. Wathi ukumkani woonyana baka-Amon kubathunywa bakaYifeta, Kungokuba amaSirayeli alithabatháyo ilizwe lam, ukunyuka kwawo eYiputa, athabathela eArnon, esa eYabhoki, esa eYordan; libuyise ngoxolo kalokunje.
14. UYifeta waphinda wathuma abathunywa kukumkani woonyaka baka-Amon,
15. wathi kuye, Utsho uYifeta ukuthi, AmaSirayeli akalithabathanga ilizwe lakwaMowabhi, nelizwe loonyana baka-Amon;
16. ngokuba ekunyukeni kwawo eYiputa amaSirayeli ahamba ngentlango, eza eLwandle oluBomvu,* eza eKadeshe;
17. amaSirayeli athuma abathunywa kukumkani wakwaEdom, esithi, Makhe ndicande ezweni lakho. Ke ukumkani wakwaEdom akaphulaphulanga. Athuma nakukumkani wakwaMowabhi, naye akavumanga. Ahlala amaSirayeli eKadeshe.
18. Ahamba entlango, alijikela ilizwe lakwaEdom nelizwe lakwaMowabhi, evela ekuphumeni kwelanga; aya ezweni lakwaMowabhi, amisa ngaphesheya kweArnon, àkangena emdeni wakwaMowabhi, ngokuba iArnon ngumda wakwaMowabhi.
19. AmaSirayeli athuma abathunywa kuSihon, ukumkani wama-Amori, ukumkani waseHeshbhon; athi amaSirayeli kuye, Makhe ndicande ezweni lakho, ndiye endaweni yam.
