36 Bhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha akabva apindura mambo akati: “Ameni!+ Jehovha Mwari washe wangu mambo ngaaite saizvozvo.+
37 Jehovha zvaakava nashe wangu mambo,+ saizvozvowo ngaave naSoromoni,+ ngaaite kuti chigaro chake choumambo chive chikuru+ kupfuura chigaro choumambo chashe wangu Mambo Dhavhidhi.”
38 Mupristi Zadhoki+ nomuprofita Natani+ naBhenaya+ mwanakomana waJehoyadha nevaKereti+ nevaPereti+ vakaenda, vakaita kuti Soromoni atasve nyurusi gadzi raMambo Dhavhidhi,+ vakabva vaenda naye kuGihoni.+
39 Zvino mupristi Zadhoki akatora nyanga yemafuta+ mutende,+ akazodza+ Soromoni; vakatanga kuridza hwamanda, vanhu vose vakashevedzera vachiti: “Mambo Soromoni ngaararame!”+
40 Vanhu vose vakazoenda vachimutevera, uye vanhu vakanga vachiridza nyere+ vachifara kwazvo,+ zvokuti nyika+ yakatsemuka noruzha rwavo.

42 Achiri kutaura, tarira, Jonatani+ mwanakomana womupristi Abhiyatari akasvika. Adhonija akabva ati: “Pinda, nokuti uri murume akashinga, uye wauya nemashoko akanaka.”+
43 Asi Jonatani akapindura akati kuna Adhonija: “Aiwa! Ishe wedu Mambo Dhavhidhi agadza Soromoni kuti ave mambo.+
44 Naizvozvo mambo atuma mupristi Zadhoki nomuprofita Natani naBhenaya mwanakomana waJehoyadha nevaKereti nevaPereti vari pamwe chete naye, uye ivo vaita kuti atasve nyurusi gadzi ramambo.+

51 Kwapera nguva yakati, Soromoni akaudzwa kuti: “Tarirai, Adhonija atya Mambo Soromoni; uye tarirai abata nyanga dzeatari, achiti, ‘Mambo Soromoni ngaatange andipikira kuti haazourayi mushandi wake nebakatwa.’”
52 Soromoni akati: “Kana achizova murume akashinga, hapana kana bvudzi rake rimwe chete+ richawira pasi; asi kana zvakaipa zvikawanikwa maari,+ achatofa.”+
53 Naizvozvo Mambo Soromoni akatuma vanhu, vakamuburutsa paatari. Akabva apinda, akakotamira Mambo Soromoni; Soromoni akabva ati kwaari: “Enda kumba kwako.”+
