Forsothe a sone feble in feet was to Jonathas, the sone of Saul; forsothe he was fyue yeer eld, whanne the messanger cam fro Saul and Jonathas, fro Jezrael. Therfor his nurse took hym, and fledde; and whanne sche hastide to fle, sche felde doun, and the child was maad lame; and `he hadde a name Myphibosech.

Forsothe Dauid answeride to Rechab, and Baana, his brother, the sones of Remmon of Beroth, and seide to hem, The Lord lyueth, that delyueride my lijf fro al angwisch;
10 be esi ame aɖe gblɔ nam be Saul ku eye yee wui kple susu be dzidzɔnya aɖe gblɔm yele nam la, mewui le Ziklag. Nenemae mexe fe nɛ ɖe eƒe dzidzɔnya la tae nye esi!
