Pashure, mambo wavaAmoni vakafa, mwanakomana wavo Hanuni vakava mambo panzvimbo yavo. Dhavhidhi vakati, “Ndichaitira Hanuni mwanakomana waNahashi zvakanaka, sezvandakaitirwa zvakanaka nababa vavo.” Saka vakatuma varanda kuti vanyaradze Hanuni pamusoro porufu rwababa vavo. Asi varanda vaDhavhidhi pavakasvika munyika yavaAmoni, vatungamiriri vavaAmoni vakati kuna Hanuni ishe wavo, “Munofunga here kuti Dhavhidhi vari kukudza baba venyu nokutuma vanhu kwamuri kuti vakunyaradzei? Ko Dhavhidhi havana kutuma varanda vavo kwamuri kuti vaongorore guta, varisore, uye variparadze here?”

Vamwe vose vakasara akavaisa mumaoko omununʼuna wake Abhishai, kuti vagadzire mitsara yokurwa navaAmoni. Joabhu akati, “Kana vaAramu vakandikurira, undibatsire; kana vaAmoni vakakukurira, ndichakubatsira. Simbai, uye ngatitsunge mwoyo nokuda kwavanhu vedu nemaguta aBaba vedu. Baba vedu ngavaite zvavanoona zvakanaka.” Ipapo Joabhu navarwi vaaiva navo vakaswedera kundorwa navaAramu, ivo vakatiza pamberi pake. VaAmoni pavakaona kuti vaAramu vatiza, ivowo vakatiza pamberi paAbhishai vakapinda muguta. Saka Joabhu akadzoka achibva kuvaAmoni akasvika kuJerusarema.

Hadhadhezeri akadana vaAramu vaiva mhiri kwaYufuratesi; vakauya kuHeramu, Shobhaki mukuru wehondo yaHadhadhezeri achivatungamirira. Dhavhidhi pavakazvinzwa, vakaunganidza vaIsraeri vose, vakayambuka Jorodhani, vakasvika kuHeramu. VaAramu vakagadzira mitsara yokurwa naDhavhidhi vakarwa navo. Asi vaAramu vakatiza pamberi pavaIsraeri. Dhavhidhi vakauraya vatyairi vengoro mazana manomwe navatasvi vamabhiza zviuru makumi mana, vakabaya Shobhaki mukuru wehondo yavo, akafira ipapo. Madzimambo ose aiva pasi paHadhadhezeri paakaona kuti akundwa navaIsraeri, akaita rugare navaIsraeri akavashandira. Saka vaAramu vakatya kuzobatsira vaAmoni zvakare.
