Mistari ya Biblia kuhusu Servants: Absalom's servants [Absalom's servants obeyed a bad master; they were bad men rather than bad servants]

Absalomu aliagiza watu wake, “Sikilizeni! Wakati Amnoni atakapokuwa amekunywa mvinyo na kulewa sana nami nikiwaambia, ‘Mpigeni Amnoni,’ basi muueni. Msiogope. Je, si mimi niliyewapa amri hii? Kuweni hodari na wenye ushujaa.”

Kwa hiyo watu wa Absalomu wakamtendea Amnoni kama vile Absalomu alivyokuwa amewaagiza. Ndipo wana wote wa mfalme wakainuka, wakapanda nyumbu zao, wakakimbia.

Ndipo akawaambia watumishi wake, “Tazama, shamba la Yoabu liko jirani na langu, naye ana shayiri humo. Nendeni mkalitie moto.” Kisha watumishi wa Absalomu wakalitia moto shamba hilo.
