Koma pamene mngeloyo amachita zimenezi, Yehova anaona ndipo anavutika mu mtima chifukwa cha zowawazo ndipo anati kwa mngelo amene ankawononga anthu uja, “Basi kwakwanira!

Ndipo Davide ndi akuluakulu, atavala ziguduli, anadzigwetsa pansi chafufumimba. 17 Davide anati kwa Mulungu, “Kodi si ine amene ndinalamula kuti ankhondo awerengedwe? Ine mʼbusa ndi amene ndachimwa, ndiye ndachita zoyipa. Anthuwa ali ngati nkhosa zosalakwa. Kodi iwowa achita chiyani? Inu Yehova Mulungu wanga, langani ineyo pamodzi ndi banja langa, koma musalole kuti mliriwu ukhale pa anthu anuwa.” 18 Pamenepo mngelo wa Yehova analamula Gadi kuti awuze Davide kuti akamange guwa lansembe la Yehova pamalo opunthira tirigu a Arauna Myebusi. 19 Ndipo Davide anapita pomvera mawu amene Gadi ananena mʼdzina la Yehova. 20 Pamene Arauna ankapuntha tirigu, anatembenuka ndipo anaona mngelo ndipo ana ake anayi aamuna amene anali naye anabisala. 21 Davide anayandikira, ndipo Arauna atayangʼana ndi kumuona, anachoka popunthira tirigupo ndipo anawerama nagunditsa nkhope yake pansi pamaso pa Davide. 22 Davide anati kwa Arauna, “Undipatse malo ako opunthira tirigu kuti ndimangire Yehova guwa lansembe, kuti mliri uli pa anthuwa usiye. Undigulitse ine pa mtengo woyenera ndithu.” 23 Arauna anati kwa Davide, “Tengani! Mbuye wanga mfumu achite chomukomera. Taonani ine ndidzapereka ngʼombe zazimuna za nsembe yopsereza, zopunthira tirigu zidzakhala nkhuni ndipo tiriguyu adzakhala chopereka chachakudya. Ndidzapereka zonsezi.” 24 Koma mfumu Davide inayankha Arauna kuti, “Ayi, ine ndikuti ndipereka mtengo wathunthu. Sindingatenge chinthu chako ndi kuchipereka kwa Yehova, kapena kupereka nsembe imene sindinayigule.” 25 Choncho Davide analipira Arauna masekeli agolide 600 chifukwa cha malowo. 26 Davide anamangira Yehova guwa lansembe pamenepo ndipo anaperekapo nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano.
