Context
19Farao akapendezwa sana na Hadadi hata akampa ndugu wa mkewe mwenyewe, Malkia Tapenesi, ili aolewe na Hadadi. 20Huyo ndugu wa Tapenesi akamzalia mwana aliyeitwa Genubathi, ambaye alilelewa na Tapenesi katika jumba la kifalme. Huko Genubathi aliishi pamoja na watoto wa Farao mwenyewe. 21Alipokuwa huko Misri, Hadadi alisikia kwamba Daudi amepumzika na baba zake na ya kwamba pia Yoabu aliyekuwa jemadari wa jeshi amekufa. Ndipo Hadadi akamwambia Farao, “Niruhusu niende ili niweze kurudi katika nchi yangu.” 22Farao akauliza, “Umekosa nini hapa, kwamba unataka kurudi katika nchi yako?”
Hadadi akajibu, “Hakuna, lakini niruhusu niende!” 23Mungu akamwinua adui mwingine dhidi ya Solomoni, Rezoni mwana wa Eliada, ambaye alikuwa amemkimbia bwana wake Hadadezeri, mfalme wa Soba.
