Shangatsi ngingete ngatingena tindzaba tenu, ngingeke ngihlanganyele nani, ngobe nitsi ningatfukutsela nibulale bantfu ngebudlova benu, nigawule imisipha yetinkhomo.
Solomoni wabutsela ndzawonye tincola temphi nemahhashi; abenetincola temphi letatiyi-1 400, nemahhashi labeti-12 000, labewagcine emadolobheni etincola temphi, kanye naseJerusalema, lapho abehlala khona.
Davide watfumba inkhulungwane yetincola takhe temphi, nebashayeli betincola temphi labati-7 000, nemasotja lahamba ngetinyawo lati-20 000. Onkhe emahhashi wawageca imisipha, washiya emahhashi etincola letatilikhulu.

Leyo nkhosi futsi akukafaneli ifune kuba nemahhashi lamanyenti langewayo, nome yente bantfu badzimate bancandzeke babuyele eGibhithe kuyawulandza lamanye, ngobe phela Simakadze wanitjela watsi: ‘Ningaphindzi nincandzeke nihambe ngaleyo ndlela futsi.’
Simakadze wakhuluma kuJoshuwa, watsi: “Ungabesabi, ngobe ngalesikhatsi kusasa bonkhe ngitawubaniketela kuma-Israyeli kutsi ababulale. Kufanele lamahhashi niwajube imisipha yemilente, bese nishisa letincola tabo.”
Joshuwa wenta kubo kona loko labetjelwe nguSimakadze kutsi akwente: Wajuba imisipha yemilente yemahhashi abo, washisa netincola tabo.
