And he said good I I will make with you a covenant only a thing one I [am] asking from with you saying not you will see face my for - except before bring you Michal [the] daughter of Saul when coming you to see face my.
14 Ndipo Davide anatuma amithenga kwa Isi-Boseti mwana wa Sauli, kumulamula kuti, “Patse mkazi wanga Mikala, amene ndinamukwatira ndi makungu 100 a msonga za mavalo a Afilisti.”
And he sent David messengers to Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul saying give! wife my Michal whom I betrothed to myself for a hundred foreskins of Philistines.

And [the] word of Abner it was with [the] elders of Israel saying both yesterday as well as [the] third day you were seeking David to king over you.
18 Tsopano chitani zimenezo! Pakuti Yehova analonjeza Davide kuti, ‘Kudzera mwa mtumiki wanga Davide ndidzapulumutsa anthu anga Aisraeli mʼdzanja la Afilisti ndi kuwachotsa mʼmanja mwa adani awo.’”

And Joab and Abishai brother his they killed Abner on that he had killed Asahel brother their at Gibeon in the battle.
31 Ndipo Davide anati kwa Yowabu ndi anthu onse amene anali nawo, “Ngʼambani zovala zanu ndipo muvale ziguduli, muyende mukulira patsogolo pa Abineri.” Mfumu Davide mwini anayenda motsatira chitandacho.
