Context

1Hasira ya Bwana ikawaka tena dhidi ya Israeli, naye akamchochea Daudi dhidi yao, akisema, “Nenda ukawahesabu Israeli na Yuda.” 2Kwa hiyo mfalme akamwambia Yoabu, pamoja na majemadari wa jeshi aliokuwa nao, “Nendeni kwa makabila yote ya Israeli kuanzia Dani hadi Beer-Sheba na mwandikishe watu wapiganaji, ili niweze kujua idadi yao.” 3Lakini Yoabu akamjibu mfalme, “Bwana Mungu wako na azidishe jeshi mara mia, nayo macho ya bwana wangu mfalme na yaone hili. Lakini kwa nini bwana wangu mfalme anataka kufanya kitu cha namna hii?” 4Hata hivyo, neno la mfalme likawa na nguvu juu ya Yoabu pamoja na majemadari wa jeshi, kwa hiyo wakaondoka mbele ya mfalme kuandikisha wapiganaji wa Israeli. 5Baada ya kuvuka Yordani, walipiga kambi karibu na Aroeri, kusini ya mji ulioko kwenye bonde jembamba, ndipo wakipitia Gadi, wakaenda hadi Yazeri.
