uye akarayira kuti vanhu veJudha vadzidziswe rwiyo urwu rwokuchema rwouta (rwakanyorwa mubhuku raJashari):
19 “Ulemerero wako iwe Israeli, wagona utaphedwa ku zitunda. Taonani amphamvu agwa kumeneko!
“Haiwa Israeri, kubwinya kwako kwaparadzwa pamitunhu yako yakakwirira. Haiwa, vane simba wawira pasi sei!
20 “Musakanene zimenezi ku Gati, musazilengeze ku misewu ya ku Asikeloni, kuti ana aakazi a Afilisti angasangalale, ana aakazi a osachita mdulidwe angakondwere.
“Musazvireva muGati, musazviparidza mumigwagwa yeAshikeroni, kuti vanasikana vavaFiristia vasazofara, kuti vanasikana vevasina kudzingiswa varege kupembera.
21 “Inu mapiri a ku Gilibowa, musakhalenso ndi mame kapena mvula, kapena minda yobereka zopereka za ufa. Pakuti kumeneko chishango cha munthu wamphamvu chinadetsedwa, chishango cha Sauli sanachipakenso mafuta.
“Haiwa imi makomo eGiribhoa, ngakurege kuva nedova kana mvura pamusoro penyu, kana minda inobereka zviyo zvakawanda. Nokuti ipapo ndipo pakasvibiswa nhoo yemhare, iyo nhoo yaSauro, isisina kuzorwa mafuta.
22 “Pa magazi a ophedwa, pa mnofu wa amphamvu, uta wa Yonatani sunabwerere, lupanga la Sauli silinabwere chabe.
Kubva muropa ravakaurayiwa, kubva munyama yemhare, uta hwaJonatani hahuna kudzoka, munondo waSauro hauna kudzoka usina kugutswa.
23 “Sauli ndi Yonatani, pa moyo wawo anali okondedwa ndi okoma mtima, ndipo pa imfa yawo sanasiyanitsidwe. Iwo anali ndi liwiro loposa ziwombankhanga, anali ndi mphamvu zoposa mkango.
“Sauro naJonatani, muupenyu vaidikanwa uye vakanaka, nomurufu havana kuparadzaniswa. Vaimhanya kupfuura makondo, vaiva vakasimba kupfuura shumba.
24 “Inu ana aakazi a Israeli, mulireni Sauli, amene anakuvekani zovala zofiira ndi zofewa, amene anakometsera zovala zanu ndi zokometsera zagolide.
“Haiwa vanasikana veIsraeri, chemai nokuda kwaSauro, iye aikupfekedzai zvishongo zvitsvuku uye zvakaisvonaka, aishongedza nguo dzenyu nezvishongo zvegoridhe.
25 “Taonani amphamvu agwa ku nkhondo! Yonatani wagona ataphedwa ku zitunda.
“Haiwa vane simba vawira pasi sei muhondo! Jonatani avete, aurayiwa pamitunhu yenyu yakakwirira.
26 Ine ndikuvutika mumtima chifukwa cha iwe mʼbale wanga Yonatani, unali wokondedwa kwambiri kwa ine. Chikondi chako pa ine chinali chopambana, chopambana kuposa chikondi cha akazi.
Ndiri kutambudzika kwazvo pamusoro pako, Jonatani mununʼuna wangu; wakanga uchikosha kwazvo kwandiri. Rudo rwako kwandiri rwaishamisa, rwaishamisa kudarika rwavakadzi.
27 “Taonani amphamvu agwa! Zida zankhondo zawonongeka!”
“Haiwa vane simba vakawira pasi sei! Zvombo zvehondo zvaparadzwa!”
