UDavida wathi, “Uyindoda, kawusiyo na? Njalo ngubani onjengawe ko-Israyeli na? Kungani ungayilindanga inkosi yakho na? Umuntu othile ufikile ukuba abulale inkosi yakho.
16 Hno na saii tea then moenih. BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah, BOEIPA loh na boei rhoek soaha koelh thil te na ngaithuen pawt dongah na duek ca ngawn sui dae. Tahae ah so lah a lu kah manghai caai neh tui um ta melae,” a ti nah.
Okwenzileyo kakukuhle. Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ephila, wena labantu bakho lifanele ukufa, ngoba kaliyilindanga inkosi yenu, ogcotshiweyo kaThixo. Khangelani emaceleni enu. Ungaphi umkhonto wenkosi lesigxingi samanzi okube kuphansi kwekhanda layo na?”
17 Te vaengah David ol te Saul loh a hmat tih, “Ka ca David nang ol a he?' a ti nah. Te dongah David loh,” Kai ol ni ue, ka boei manghai aw,” a ti nah.
USawuli walazi ilizwi likaDavida, wasesithi, “Yilizwi lakho lelo yini, Davida ndodana yami?” UDavida waphendula wathi, “Yebo yilo, nkosi, nkosi yami.”
18 Te phoeiah, “Ka boeipa long he balae tih a sal hnuka hloem? Balae ka saii tih, ka kut dongkah he mebang boethae nim?
Wengeza wathi, “Kanti kungani inkosi yami ixotshana lenceku yayo na? Kuyini engikwenzileyo, njalo licala bani engilalo na?

BOEIPA rho dongah thawth ham khohnin vaengah kai n'haek tih, “Pathen tloe taengah tho aka thueng te cet laeh,” a ti.
Khathesi-ke nkosi, nkosi yami, lalela amazwi enceku yakho. Nxa uThixo ekuqubule ukuba umelane lami, kamkele umhlatshelo. Kodwa nxa kwenziwe ngabantu, kabathukwe phambi kukaThixo! Khathesi sebengixotshile esabelweni sami elifeni likaThixo njalo bathi, ‘Hamba uyekhonza abanye onkulunkulu.’
20 Israel manghai loh tlang ah varhung aka hloem bangla uihli pakhat tlap ham ha pawk cakhaw BOEIPA mikhmuh mikhmuh lamloh ka thii he lai la tlak sak boel saeh,” a ti nah.
Ungenzi igazi lami lichithekele phansi khatshana lobukhona bukaThixo. Inkosi yako-Israyeli iphumile ukuzadinga insikizi njengomuntu ozingela isikhwehle ezintabeni.”
21 Saul loh, “Ka ca David ha mael laeh ka tholh oeh coeng. Nang taengah thae koep ka huet voel mahpawh. Ka hinglu he na mikhmuh ah a phutlo dae, tihnin ah ka pavai tih ka palang tangkik aih coeng he,” a ti nah.
Lapho-ke uSawuli wathi, “Ngenze isono. Buya Davida, ndodana yami. Ngenxa yokuthi ukhangele impilo yami njengegugu lamhla, kangiyikuzama futhi ukwenza okubi kuwe. Ngempela ngenze ubuwula njalo ngiphambanise kakhulu.”
22 Te dongah David loh a doo tih, “Hekah caai he, manghai kah caai ni, tahae ah camoe pakhat loh ham paan saeh lamtah han lo saeh.
UDavida waphendula wathi, “Nanku umkhonto wenkosi. Wothi omunye wezinsizwa zakho keze ngapha azewuthatha.
23 A duengnah neh a uepomnah te BOEIPA loh hlang taengah thuung nawn saeh. Tihnin ah BOEIPA loh kakut ah nangn'tloeng coeng dae BOEIPA kah a koelh soah ka kut hlah ham ka huem moenih.
UThixo uyamnika umvuzo umuntu wonke ngenxa yokulunga kwakhe lokuthembeka kwakhe. UThixo ukunikele ezandleni zami lamhla, kodwa kade ngingeke ngibeke isandla kogcotshiweyo kaThixo.
24 Tihnin ah na hinglu he ka mikhmuh aha pantai vanbangla ka hinglu he BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pantai van saeh. Citcai boeih khui lamkah kai he n'huul nawn saeh,” a ti nah.
Ngeqiniso njengoba ngiqakathekise ukuphila kwakho lamhla, sengathi kanjalo-ke uThixo angaqakathekisa ukuphila kwami angisindise kukho konke ukuhlupheka.”
25 Te daengah David te Saul loh, “Ka ca David nang tah, na yoethen pai, na saii la na saii coeng atah na noeng rhoela na noeng van,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah David loh amah longpuei ah cet tih Saul khaw amah hmuen la mael.
Lapho-ke uSawuli wathi kuDavida, “Sengathi ungabusiseka, ndodana yami Davida; uzakwenza izinto ezinkulu njalo unqobe.” UDavida wasuka wazihambela, uSawuli wasebuyela ekhaya.
