2 Te vaengah Saul neh anih ca rhoek te Philisti loh meh a duep uh tih Saul ca rhoek Jonathan, Abinadab neh Malkhishua te Philisti loh a ngawn pah.

4 Te vaengah a hno phuei te Saul loh, “Na cunghang te phong lamtah kai n'thun mai laeh. Amih pumdul rhoek te ha pawk uh vaengah kai n'thun uh vetih m'poelyoe uh ve,” a ti nah. Tedae a hno phuei long tah bahoeng a rhih tih huem pah pawh. Te dongah Saul loh cunghang te a loh tih a bakop thil.
Tsono Sauli anawuza mnyamata wake wonyamula zida zake kuti, “Solola lupanga lako undiphe kuopa kuti anthu osachita mdulidwewa angabwere kudzandizunza ine.” Koma mnyamata wonyamula zida uja anachita mantha kwambiri ndipo sanathe kutero. Choncho Sauli anatenga lupanga lake lomwe nagwerapo.

8 A vuen ah rhok hloem ham Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh hatah Gilboa tlang ah Saul neh a ca rhoek pathum ana cungku te a hmuh uh.
Mmawa mwake, Afilisti atabwera kudzatenga zinthu za anthu ophedwa anapeza Sauli ndi ana ake atatu atafa pa phiri la Gilibowa.
9 A lu te a tloek pa uh tih a hnopai te a pit uh. Te phoeiah amamih kah muei im neh pilnam taengah phong ham Philisti kaepvai kah kho tom la a tueih uh.
