28 Absaromu akabva arayira vashandi vake kuti: “Rambai muchicherechedza Amnoni uye mwoyo wake paunenge wafara newaini, ndichati kwamuri, ‘Urayai Amnoni!’ Imi munofanira kubva mamuuraya. Musatya. Handiti ndini ndiri kukuudzai zvekuita? Simbai mushinge.”
29 Saka vashandi vaAbsaromu vakaitira Amnoni zvese zvavakanga varayirwa naAbsaromu; vamwe vanakomana vamambo vese vakabva vasimuka, uye mumwe nemumwe akakwira nyurusi rake akatiza.
30 Pavakanga vari munzira, shoko rakasvika kuna Dhavhidhi, richiti: “Absaromu auraya vanakomana vamambo vese, hapana kana apona.”

32 Zvisinei, Jehonadhabhi+ mwanakomana waShimeya,+ mukoma waDhavhidhi, akati: “Ishe wangu ngaarege kufunga kuti vauraya majaya ese, ivo vanakomana vamambo, nekuti Amnoni chete ndiye afa.+ Izvi zvarayirwa naAbsaromu, uyo akazvironga+ kubva pazuva rakanyadziswa hanzvadzi yake+ Tamari+ naAmnoni.
33 Saka ishe wangu mambo ngaarege kuteerera* shoko rekuti, ‘Vanakomana vese vamambo vafa’; Amnoni ndiye chete afa.”
