¹URehobowamu esefikile eJerusalema, wabutha endlini yakwaJuda nakwaBenjamini amadoda akhethiweyo ayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi ayisishiyagalombili, ukuba alwe no-Israyeli, abuyisele ubukhosi kuRehobowamu.

²Kepha izwi likaJehova lafika kuShemaya, umuntu kaNkulunkulu, lathi:

³Khuluma kuRehobowamu indodana kaSolomoni, inkosi yakwaJuda, nakuye wonke u-Israyeli kwaJuda nakwaBenjamini, uthi:

⁴Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: Aniyikukhuphuka niyokulwa nabafowenu; buyelani, kube yilowo nalowo endlini yakhe, ngokuba lokhu kwenziwe kimi. Bawalalela amazwi kaJehova, babuya ekulweni noJerobowamu.

⁵URehobowamu wahlala eJerusalema, wakha imizi eyinqaba kwaJuda.

⁶Wakha neBetlehema, ne-Etamu, neThekhowa,

⁷noBetsuri noSoko no-Adulamu,

⁸neGati, neMaresha, neZifi,

⁹no-Adoraim, neLakishi, no-Aseka,

¹⁰neSoreya, ne-Ajaloni, neHebroni, imizi ebiyelweyo kwaJuda nakwaBenjamini.

¹¹Waziqinisa izinqaba, wabeka ababusi kuzo, nezitolo zokudla, namafutha, newayini.

¹²Emizini yonke wabeka izihlangu nemikhonto, wakwenza kwaba namandla kakhulu, uJuda noBenjamini beseduze kwakhe.

¹³Abapristi namaLevi ababe ko-Israyeli wonke beza kuye bevela kuzo zonke izindawo zabo.

¹⁴Ngokuba amaLevi ashiya amadlelo awo nempahla yawo, eza kwaJuda naseJerusalema, ngokuba uJerobowamu namadodana akhe babalahlile ukuba bangabe besaba ubupristi bukaJehova.

¹⁵Wazimisela abapristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo nabamademoni nabamathole abewenzile.

¹⁶Ngemva kwabo bevela ezizweni zonke zakwa-Israyeli beza eJerusalema labo ababebeke izinhliziyo zabo ekufuneni uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukuze bahlabele uJehova uNkulunkulu wawoyise.

¹⁷Bawuqinisa umbuso wakwaJuda, baqinisa uRehobowamu indodana kaSolomoni iminyaka emithathu; iminyaka emithathu bahamba ngendlela kaDavide noSolomoni.

¹⁸URehobowamu wazithathela uMahalati, indodakazi kaJerimoti, indodana kaDavide, no-Abihayili indodakazi ka-Eliyabe indodana kaJese;

¹⁹owamzalela abantwana; Jeus kanye neSamariya kanye noSaham.

²⁰Emva kwakhe wathatha uMaga, indodakazi ka-Abisalomu; owamzalela uAbhiya, no-Athayi, noSisa, noShelomiti.

²¹URehobowamu wathanda uMahaga indodakazi ka-Abisalomu ngaphezu kwabo bonke abafazi bakhe nezancinza zakhe;

²²URehobowamu wabeka u-Abiya, indodana kaMahakha, inhloko, abe yinhloko phakathi kwabafowabo, ngokuba wayecabanga ukumbeka inkosi.

²³Wenza ngokuhlakanipha, wabahlakazela bonke abantwana bakhe emazweni onke akwaJuda nakwaBenjamini, emizini yonke ebiyelweyo; wabanika ukudla okuningi. Futhi wafisa abesifazane abaningi.
