24 Joab, pitit gason Sewouya a, te konmanse ap konte moun nan pèp la, men li pa t' fin fè l' paske sa te lakòz Bondye te fache sou pèp la. Se konsa yo pa mete nan liv Istwa wa David la kantite moun yo te jwenn.

31 Se Jazis, moun peyi Aga, ki te reskonsab mouton ak kabrit yo. Se tout moun sa yo ki te jeran tout byen wa David yo.

32 Jonatan, tonton David, te yon konseye. Se te yon moun lespri ki te fò anpil. Jekiyèl, pitit Akmoni, te reskonsab levasyon tout pitit gason wa a.

33 Akitofèl te konseye wa a tou. Ouzayi, moun peyi Ak, te bon zanmi wa a.

34 Lè Akitofèl mouri, se Abyata ak Jeojada, pitit Benaja, ki vin konseye wa a. Joab te kòmandan lame wa a.
