BENI David bɔi maŋtsɛyeli yɛ Yerusalem lɛ sɛɛ lɛ, Yehowa ha esraafoi lɛ ye amɛhenyɛlɔi lɛ anɔ kunim shii abɔ. Yehowa ewo shi akɛ ekɛ Kanaan shikpɔŋ lɛ baaha Israelbii lɛ. Ni agbɛnɛ, yɛ naagbee lɛ, shikpɔŋ ni awo amɛ shi yɛ he lɛ fɛɛ ebatsɔ amɛnɔ kɛtsɔ Yehowa yelikɛbuamɔ nɔ.

Nɔyelɔ kpakpa ji David. Esumɔɔ Yehowa. No hewɔ lɛ nibii ni efee klɛŋklɛŋ beni eye Yerusalem nɔ kunim lɛ ateŋ ekome ji akɛ, ekɛ Yehowa kpaŋmɔ adeka lɛ ba jɛmɛ. Ni eetao ni ema sɔlemɔtsu ni ekɛwo mli.

Beni David da yɛ afii amli lɛ, etɔ̃ tɔ̃mɔ ko ni ehiii kwraa. David le akɛ ejaaa akɛ akɔɔ mɔ ko nii. Shi gbi ko gbɛkɛnaashi, beni edamɔ emaŋtsɛwe lɛ yiteŋ lɛ, ekwɛ shikpɔŋ ni ena yoo ko ni he yɔɔ fɛo waa. Egbɛi ji Batsheba, ni ewu ji esraafoi lɛ ateŋ mɔ kome ni gbɛi ji Uria lɛ.

David miitao Batsheba waa, no hewɔ lɛ eha akɛ lɛ ba emaŋtsɛwe lɛ. Ewu etee eewu ta. David kɛ lɛ wɔ ni yɛ sɛɛ mli lɛ yoo lɛ na akɛ ebaafɔ bi.

Edɔ David waa yɛ nɔ ni efee lɛ hewɔ, no hewɔ lɛ Yehowa egbeee lɛ. Shi Yehowa kɛɛ akɛ: ‘Akɛni ofee nɛkɛ nibii fɔji nɛɛ hewɔ lɛ, haomɔi babaoo baaba owe lɛ nɔ.’ Ni mɛɛ haomɔ po ba David nɔ nɛkɛ!

Enɛ hewɔ lɛ David ha osɔfo ko ni atsɛɔ lɛ Zadok fɔse mu eshwie Salomo yiteŋ ni ekɛtsɔɔ akɛ Salomo baaye maŋtsɛ. No sɛɛ lɛ, etsɛɛɛ ni David gbo beni eye afii 70. Ekɛ afii 40 ye maŋtsɛ, shi agbɛnɛ Salomo ji Israel maŋtsɛ.
