9 Siangpahrang ni Sawl e a san Ziba hah ama koe a kaw teh, Sawl hoi a imthung e hnopai pueng hah na bawipa e capa he ka poe toe.

10 Nama hoi na capa, na sannaw hoi lai na thawn pouh vaiteh, na bawi capa ni a ca hane kawi ao thai nahan, na tawk e a pawhik hah na tho khai han. Hateiteh, na bawipa e capa Mephibosheth ni ka caboi dawk bu pou a ven han telah atipouh. Ziba ni a ca 15 touh hoi a san 20 touh a tawn.
