42 And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king's cost? or hath he given us any gift?
42 Ndipo watu wote wa Yuda wakawajibu hao watu wa Israeli, Ni kwa sababu mfalme ndiye wa jamaa yetu; mbona basi ninyi mmekasirika kwa ajili ya jambo hili? Je! Sisi tumekula kitu cha mfalme? Ama ametupa sisi zawadi yo yote?
