Context
2Mfalme akawaita Wagibeoni na kuzumgumza nao. (Wagibeoni hawakuwa wa wana wa Israeli, ila walikuwa mabaki ya Waamori. Waisraeli walikuwa wameapa kuwaacha hai, lakini Sauli katika wivu wake kwa ajili ya Israeli na Yuda, alikuwa amejaribu kuwaangamiza.) 3Daudi akawauliza Wagibeoni, “Niwatendee nini? Nitawaridhishaje ili mbariki urithi wa Bwana?” 4Wagibeoni wakamjibu, “Hatuna haki ya kudai fedha wala dhahabu kutoka kwa Sauli au jamaa yake, wala hatuna haki ya kumuua mtu yeyote katika Israeli.”
Daudi akawauliza, “Mnataka niwafanyie nini?” 5Wakamjibu mfalme, “Kwa habari ya mtu aliyetuangamiza na kufanya hila mbaya dhidi yetu ili kwamba tuangamizwe na tusiwe na yeyote katika Israeli, 6tupatieni wazao wake saba wa kiume tuwaue hadharani mbele za Bwana huko Gibea ya Sauli, aliyekuwa amechaguliwa na Bwana.”
Basi mfalme akasema, “Nitawakabidhi kwenu.”
