1 Mũthenya ũmwe Jonathani mũrũ wa Saũlũ akĩĩra mwanake ũrĩa wamũkuuagĩra indo cia mbaara atĩrĩ, “Ũka tũthiĩ kambĩ-inĩ ya Afilisti mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ.” No ndaigana kwĩra ithe.
Rimwe zuva Jonatani mwanakomana waSauro akati kujaya raitakura zvombo zvake zvokurwa, “Uya tiende kumusasa wavarwi vevaFiristia kudivi rimwe iro.” Asi haana kuudza baba vake.
2 Saũlũ aikarĩte ndeere-inĩ cia Gibea rungu rwa mũtĩ wa mũkomamanga kũu Migironi. Nao andũ arĩa aarĩ nao maarĩ ta andũ magana matandatũ,
Sauro aigara nechokumucheto kweGibhea pasi pomuti womutamba muMigironi. Aiva navarume vanokarosvika mazana matanhatu,
3 ũmwe wao aarĩ Ahija, ũrĩa wehumbĩte ebodi. Aarĩ mũrũ wa Ahitubu mũrũ wa nyina na Ikabodu, mũrũ wa Finehasi, ũrĩa mũrũ wa Eli, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wa Jehova kũu Shilo. Gũtiarĩ mũndũ wamenyete atĩ Jonathani nĩathiĩte.
pakati pavo pana Ahiya, akanga akapfeka efodhi. Akanga ari mwanakomana womukoma waIkabhodhi, Ahitubhi, mwanakomana waFinehasi, mwanakomana waEri, muprista waJehovha muShiro. Hapana akaziva kuti Jonatani akanga aenda.
4 Mĩena yeerĩ ya kĩhunguro kĩrĩa Jonathani endaga gũũkĩrĩra nĩguo akinye irangĩro-inĩ rĩa Afilisti nĩ haarĩ na hurũrũka cia ihiga; ĩmwe yetagwo Bozezi, na ĩrĩa ĩngĩ Senehe.
Kumativi ose omupata waida kuyambukwa naJonatani kuti asvike pamusasa wavaFiristia, kwaiva namawere; mamwe ainzi Bhozezi, mamwe achinzi Sene.
5 Hurũrũka ĩmwe yarĩ mwena wa gathigathini kũngʼethera Mikimashi, na ĩyo ĩngĩ yarĩ gũthini kũngʼethera Geba.
Mamwe mawere aiva nechokumusoro kwakadziva kuMikimashi, mamwe ari zasi kwakadziva kuGebha.
6 Jonathani akĩĩra mwanake ũcio wamũkuuagĩra indo cia mbaara atĩrĩ, “Ũka tũthiĩ irangĩro-inĩ rĩa andũ acio mataruaga. Hihi no gũkorwo Jehova nĩegwĩka ũndũ nĩ ũndũ witũ. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ kĩngĩgiria Jehova ahonokanie, andũ marĩ aingĩ, kana marĩ anini.”
Jonatani akati kujaya raitakura zvombo zvake zvokurwa, “Uya tiyambuke tiende kumusasa wavasina kudzingiswa avo. Zvichida Jehovha achatirwira. Hapana chinodzivisa Jehovha kuti aponese, navakawanda kana navashoma.”
7 Mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩka maũndũ mothe marĩa wĩciirĩtie gwĩka, ũgĩthiĩ na mbere tondũ niĩ ndĩ hamwe nawe maũndũ-inĩ mothe.”
Mutakuri wezvombo akati, “Itai zvose zvamafunga. Endai mberi; ndinemi pamweya napamwoyo.”
8 Jonathani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka tũringe mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ twerekeire harĩ andũ acio tũmeonithie.
Jonatani akati, “Uya tiyambuke zvino tinange kuvarume ava uye tigorega vatione.
9 Mangĩtwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Etererai hau nginya tũũke kũrĩ inyuĩ,’ tũgũikara o hau tũrĩ na tũtikwambata tũthiĩ kũrĩ o.
Kana vakati kwatiri, ‘Mirai ipapo kusvikira tauya kwamuri,’ ticharamba tiri patiri ipapo uye hatizokwiri kwavari.
10 No mangĩtwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ambatai mũũke kũrĩ ithuĩ,’ tũkĩambate, nĩ ũndũ kĩu nĩkĩo gĩgũtuĩka kĩmenyithia giitũ atĩ Jehova nĩamaneanĩte moko-inĩ maitũ.”
Asi kana vakati, ‘Uyai kuno kwatiri,’ tichakwidza, nokuti ndicho chichava chiratidzo chedu chokuti Jehovha avaisa mumaoko edu.”
11 Nao eerĩ makĩĩonithania irangĩro-inĩ rĩa Afilisti. Nao Afilisti makiuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩ, ta rorai! Ahibirania makiuma marima-inĩ makurumĩte kũrĩa marehithĩte.”
Saka vose vari vaviri vakazviratidza kuboka ravarwi ravaFiristia. VaFiristia vakati, “Tarirai! VaHebheru vari kukambaira vachibuda mumakomba avanga vakavanda.”
12 Nao andũ a irangĩro-inĩ makĩgũthũkĩra Jonathani na mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ambatai mũũke kũrĩ ithuĩ na mũtirĩ ũndũ mũtekuona.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jonathani akĩĩra mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara atĩrĩ, “Ambata, ũnyume thuutha; Jehova nĩamaneanĩte guoko-inĩ gwa Isiraeli.”
Varume veboka ravarwi vakadanidzira kuna Jonatani nomubati wake nenhumbi dzokurwa vakati, “Kwirai kuno kwatiri tigokudzidzisai chidzidzo.” Saka Jonatani akati kumubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa nadzo, “Kwira unditevere; Jehovha avaisa mumaoko avaIsraeri.”
13 Jonathani akĩambata, agĩthiĩ akurumĩte, na mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara amuumĩte thuutha. Nao Afilisti makĩgũa mbere ya Jonathani, nake mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara akĩmooraga arĩ thuutha wake.
Jonatani akakwira achikambaira namaoko namakumbo ake, mubati wenhumbi dzake dzokurwa ari mumashure make. VaFiristia vakati rakata rakata kuwa pamberi paJonatani, uye mubati wenhumbi dzake dzokurwa akatevera achiuraya mumashure make.
14 Itharĩkĩra rĩu rĩa mbere rĩa Jonathani marĩ na mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara rĩoragire andũ mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ gacigo-inĩ ka nuthu ya ĩka.
Pakurwisa kwokutanga, Jonatani nomubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa nadzo vakauraya varume vanenge makumi maviri panzvimbo inenge hafu yeeka.
15 Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩmako gĩkĩnyiita andũ othe a ita, arĩa maarĩ kambĩ-inĩ na mĩgũnda-inĩ, o na arĩa maarĩ irangĩro-inĩ, na ikundi cia atharĩkĩri, nayo thĩ ĩgĩthingitha. Kĩmako kĩu kĩarehetwo nĩ Ngai.
Ipapo kutya kwakabata varwi vose vakanga vari mumusasa nomuminda, navose vakanga vari mumapoka avarwi navapambi, uye pasi pakadengenyeka. Kwakanga kuri kuvhundutswa kwakanga kwatumwa naMwari.
16 Arangĩri a Saũlũ arĩa maarĩ Gibea ya Benjamini makĩona andũ a ita rĩu maharaganĩte mĩena yothe.
Nharirire dzaSauro paGibhea muBhenjamini dzakaona varwi vachinyungudika kumativi ose.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩĩra andũ arĩa maarĩ nake atĩrĩ, “Tarai andũ a ita mũmenye nũũ ũtarĩ ho.” Rĩrĩa meekire ũguo, magĩkora nĩ Jonathani na mũkuui wake wa indo cia mbaara mataarĩ ho.
Ipapo Sauro akati kuvarume vakanga vanaye, “Verengai varwi muone kuti ndivanaani vasipo pakati pedu.” Vakati vadaro vakaona kuti Jonatani nomubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa vakanga vasipo.
18 Saũlũ akĩĩra Ahija atĩrĩ, “Rehe ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai.” (Mahinda macio ithandũkũ rĩu rĩarĩ na andũ a Isiraeli).
Sauro akati kuna Ahiya, “Uya neareka yaMwari.” (Panguva iyoyo vaIsraeri ndivo vakanga vanayo.)
19 O hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ aaragĩria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai-rĩ, ironja rĩrĩa rĩarĩ kambĩ-inĩ ya Afilisti rĩgĩkĩrĩrĩria kũingĩha. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ akĩĩra mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio atĩrĩ, “Eheria guoko gwaku.”
Sauro achiri kutaura nomuprista, mhirizhonga yakanyanyisa mumusasa wavaFiristia. Saka Sauro akati kumuprista, “Dzosa ruoko rwako.”
20 Ningĩ Saũlũ na andũ ake othe makĩũngana, magĩthiĩ mbaara-inĩ. Magĩkorerera Afilisti marĩ na kĩhĩngĩĩcano kĩnene, magĩtemangana o ene na hiũ cia njora.
Ipapo Sauro navanhu vake vose vakaungana vakaenda kundorwa. Vakawana vaFiristia vari mumhirizhonga huru, vachibayana mumwe nomumwe neminondo yavo.
21 Ahibirania arĩa maarĩ na Afilisti mbere ĩyo na arĩa maambĩte magathiĩ hamwe nao kambĩ-inĩ ciao, makĩgarũrũka magĩcooka mwena wa andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ hamwe na Saũlũ na Jonathani.
VaHebheru vaya vakanga vari kuvaFiristia kare uye vakanga vaenda navo kumusasa wavo vakayambuka vakaenda kuvaIsraeri vakanga vana Sauro naJonatani.
22 Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli arĩa meehithĩte bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu maiguire atĩ Afilisti nĩ kũũra mooraga-rĩ, nao makĩingĩra mbaara-inĩ, makĩmatengʼeria.
VaIsraeri vaya vose vakanga vavanda munyika yezvikomo yeEfuremu pavakanzwa kuti vaFiristia vakanga votiza, vakateverawo muhondo vakavadzingirira zvikuru.
23 Ũguo nĩguo Jehova aahonokirie Isiraeli mũthenya ũcio, nayo mbaara ĩgĩthiĩ na mbere nginya ĩkĩhĩtũka Bethi-Aveni.
Saka Jehovha akarwira vaIsraeri pazuva iro, uye hondo yakaenderera mberi ikandopfuura Bheti Avheni.
24 Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ thĩĩna-inĩ mũnene mũthenya ũcio, nĩ ũndũ Saũlũ nĩamehĩtithĩtie na mwĩhĩtwa, akameera atĩrĩ, “Kũgwatwo nĩ kĩrumi nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũrĩa irio gũtanatuka, iterĩhĩirie harĩ thũ ciakwa!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wa ita rĩu wacamire irio.
Zvino varume veIsraeri vakaziya pazuva iro, nokuti Sauro akanga asunga vanhu nemhiko achiti, “Ngaatukwe munhu anodya zvokudya kusati kwadoka, ndisati ndazvitsivira vavengi vangu!” Saka hakuna munhu pavarwi akaravira chokudya.
25 Ita rĩothe rĩgĩtoonya mũtitũ, na kũu nĩ kwarĩ na ũũkĩ handũ thĩ.
Hondo yose yakapinda musango, uye imomo maiva nouchi hwapasi.
26 Rĩrĩa maatoonyire mũtitũ nĩmoonire ũũkĩ ũgĩtaata, no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe waũcamire na kanua nĩ ũndũ nĩmetigagĩra mwĩhĩtwa ũcio.
Vakati vapinda musango, vakaona uchi huchiyerera, asi hakuna akaisa ruoko rwake kumuromo wake, nokuti vakanga vachitya mhiko.
27 No Jonathani ndaiguĩte atĩ ithe nĩehĩtithĩtie andũ na mwĩhĩtwa; nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtambũrũkia rũthanju rũrĩa aanyiitĩte akĩrũtobokia igua-inĩ rĩa ũũkĩ. Akĩũcama na kanua, namo maitho make magĩthera.
Asi Jonatani akanga asina kunzwa kuti baba vake vakanga vasunga vanhu nemhiko, saka akatambanudza muromo wetsvimbo yakanga iri muruoko rwake akainyika muzinga rouchi. Akasimudzira ruoko rwake kumuromo wake, meso ake akabengenuka.
28 Nake ũmwe wa thigari icio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thoguo nĩehĩtithĩtie andũ aya a ita na mwĩhĩtwa mũrũmu, akoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Kũgwatwo nĩ kĩrumi nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũrĩa irio ũmũthĩ!’ Nĩkĩo andũ aya moorĩtwo nĩ hinya.”
Ipapo mumwe wavarwi akati kwaari, “Baba vako vasunga varwi nemhiko vachiti, ‘Ngaatukwe munhu upi zvake anodya zvokudya nhasi!’ Ndokusaka vanhu voziya.”
29 Jonathani akiuga atĩrĩ, “Baba nĩatũmĩte bũrũri ũgĩe na thĩĩna. Ta kĩonei ũrĩa maitho makwa matherire rĩrĩa njamire kaũũkĩ gaka kanini.
Jonatani akati, “Baba vangu vanetsa nyika. Tarirai muone kuzaruka kwaita meso angu pandaravira chidimbu chouchi uhu.
30 Githĩ gũtingiuma wega makĩria korwo ũmũthĩ andũ nĩmekũrĩĩte indo imwe cia iria matahĩte kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciao? Githĩ rĩũraga rĩu rĩa Afilisti rĩtingiuma inene makĩria?”
Zvaiva nani sei dai vanhu vanga vadya nhasi zvimwe zvezvakapambwa zvavakatora kuvavengi vavo. Kuurayiwa kwavaFiristia hakwaizova kukuru here?”
31 Mũthenya ũcio, thuutha wa andũ a Isiraeli kũhũũra Afilisti kuuma Mikimashi nginya Aijaloni, magĩkorwo manogeete mũno.
Musi iwoyo, shure kwokunge vaIsraeri vauraya vaFiristia kubva paMikimashi kusvika kuAijaroni, vakaneta kwazvo.
32 Nao makĩguthũkĩra indo iria maatahĩte, makĩoya ngʼondu, na ngʼombe, na tũcaũ, magĩcithĩnjĩra hau thĩ, na magĩcirĩanĩria na thakame.
Vakamhanyira zvakapambwa, uye vakatora makwai, mombe nemhuru, vakazviuraya pasi ipapo uye vakazvidya, pamwe chete neropa razvo.
33 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ ũmwe akĩĩra Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, ta kĩone andũ aya nĩmehĩirie Jehova nĩ kũrĩa nyama irĩ na thakame.” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwagarara watho. Garagariai ihiga inene mũrĩrehe haha o rĩu.”
Ipapo mumwe akati kuna Sauro, “Tarirai vanhu vari kutadzira Jehovha nokudya nyama ine ropa.” Iye akati, “Maputsa kutenda. Kungurutsirai dombo guru kuno uku izvozvi.”
34 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi kũrĩ andũ, mũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘O mũndũ wanyu nĩandehere ngʼombe yake na ngʼondu, mũcithĩnjĩre haha na mũcirĩe. Tigai kwĩhĩria Jehova nĩ kũrĩa nyama irĩ na thakame.’” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o mũndũ akĩrehe ndegwa yake ũtukũ ũcio na akĩmĩthĩnjĩra hau.
Ipapo akati, “Endai pakati pavanhu mugovataurira kuti, ‘Mumwe nomumwe wenyu ngaauye nemombe yake, namakwai uye muzviurayire pano muzvidye. Musatadzira Jehovha muchidya nyama ichine ropa rayo.’” Saka munhu wose akauya nenzombe yake usiku ihwohwo akaiuraya ipapo.
35 Ningĩ Saũlũ agĩakĩra Jehova kĩgongona; rĩu nĩrĩo rĩarĩ ihinda rĩake rĩa mbere gwĩka ũguo.
Ipapo Sauro akavakira Jehovha aritari; yakanga iri nguva yake yokutanga kuita izvi.
36 Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũikũrũkei tũrũmĩrĩre Afilisti ũtukũ, tũmatahe nginya rũciinĩ, na tũtigatigie mũndũ o na ũmwe wao arĩ muoyo.” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩka o ũrĩa ũkuona wagĩrĩire mũno harĩwe.” No mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rekei tũtuĩrie ũhoro kuuma kũrĩ Ngai o haha.”
Sauro akati, “Ngatiburukei zasi titevere vaFiristia usiku tindovaparadza kusvikira mambakwedza, uye tirege kusiya kana mumwe wavo ari mupenyu.” Ivo vakapindura vakati, “Itai zvamunoona kuti zvakanakisisa kwamuri.” Asi muprista akati, “Ngatibvunzei Mwari pano.”
37 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ akĩũria Ngai atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega njikũrũke, nũmĩrĩre Afilisti? Nĩũkũmaneana moko-inĩ ma andũ a Isiraeli?” No Ngai ndaigana kũmũcookeria ũhoro mũthenya ũcio.
Saka Sauro akabvunza Mwari akati, “Ndoburuka nditevere vaFiristia here? Muchavaisa mumaoko avaIsraeri here?” Asi Mwari haana kumupindura musi iwoyo.
38 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũkai haha, inyuothe atongoria a ita, tũmenye wĩhia ũrĩa wĩkĩtwo ũmũthĩ.
Naizvozvo Sauro akati, “Uyai pano, imi mose vatungamiri vehondo, Ngatitsvakei chivi chaitwa nhasi.
39 Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova ũrĩa ũhonokagia Isiraeli atũũraga muoyo-rĩ, o na kũngĩtuĩka nĩ Jonathani mũrũ wakwa wĩkĩte ũguo-rĩ, no nginya akue.” No gũtirĩ mũndũ o na thĩinĩ wao woigire ũndũ.
Zvirokwazvo naJehovha, iye akanunura upenyu hwavaIsraeri, kunyange dai ari Jonatani mwanakomana wangu, anofanira kufa.” Asi hapana kana mumwe wavarume akataura shoko.
40 Saũlũ agĩcooka akĩĩra andũ othe a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ rũgamai haarĩa; na niĩ na Jonathani mũrũ wakwa tũrũgame haha.” Nao andũ magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩka ũrĩa ũkuona kwagĩrĩire.”
Ipapo Sauro akati kuvaIsraeri vose, “Imi mirai uko; ini naJonatani mwanakomana wangu tichamira kuno uku.” Vanhu vakapindura vakati, “Itai zvamunoona kuti zvakanakisisa kwamuri.”
41 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩhooya Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli, akiuga atĩrĩ, “He icookio rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire.” Mĩtĩ yacuukwo yagwĩrĩire Jonathani na Saũlũ, nao andũ acio makĩoneka matiarĩ na ũcuuke.
Ipapo Sauro akanyengetera kuna Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri akati, “Ndipeiwo mhinduro yakarurama.” Ipapo Jonatani naSauro vakabatwa nomujenya, vanhu vakawanikwa vasina mhosva.
42 Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũcuukĩrei mĩtĩ niĩ na Jonathani, mũrũ wakwa.” Nake Jonathani akĩgwĩrwo nĩ mũtĩ.
Sauro akati, “Kandai mujenya pakati pangu nomwanakomana wangu Jonatani.” Ipapo Jonatani akabatwa.
43 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩĩra Jonathani atĩrĩ, “Ta njĩĩra nĩ atĩa wĩkĩte.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jonathani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “No gũcama njamire kaũũkĩ kanini na mũthia wa rũthanju rwakwa. Na rĩrĩ, no nginya niĩ ngue?”
Ipapo Sauro akati kuna Jonatani, “Ndiudze zvawaita.” Saka Jonatani akati kwaari, “Ndangoravira uchi ushoma nomuromo wetsvimbo yangu. Zvino ndinofanira kufa here?”
44 Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai arothũũra na anjĩke ũndũ mũũru makĩria, kũngĩkorwo wee Jonathani ndũgũkua.”
Sauro akati, “Mwari ngaandirove, ngaandirove kwazvo, kana iwe Jonatani ukasafa.”
45 No andũ acio makĩũria Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Jonathani nĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkua, arĩ we ũreheire Isiraeli ũhootani mũnene ũũ? Aca, kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo! Ti-itherũ, o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, gũtirĩ rũcuĩrĩ o na rũmwe rwa mũtwe wake rũkũgũa thĩ, nĩgũkorwo eekire ũguo ũmũthĩ na ũteithio wa Ngai.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ acio makĩhonokia Jonathani, na ndaigana kũũragwo.
Asi vanhu vakati kuna Sauro, “Jonatani angafanira kufa, iye akaponesa vaIsraeri nokuponesa kukuru kuya? Kwete! Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, hakuna kana bvudzi romusoro wake richawira pasi, nokuti aita izvi nhasi achibatsirwa naMwari.” Saka vanhu vakanunura Jonatani, uye haana kuurayiwa.
46 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ agĩtiga kũingatana na Afilisti, nao magĩcooka bũrũri-inĩ wao.
Ipapo Sauro akarega kutevera vaFiristia, uye vakadzokera kunyika yavo.
47 Saũlũ aambĩrĩria gũthamakĩra Isiraeli, nĩarũire na thũ ciao ndwere-inĩ ciothe: akĩrũa na Moabi, na Amoni, na Edomu, na athamaki a Zoba na a Afilisti. Kũrĩa guothe eerekagĩra, nĩamanyariiraga akamaherithia.
Shure kwokugadzwa kwaSauro ushe pamusoro pavaIsraeri, akarwa navavengi vavo kumativi ose, vaiti: Moabhu, vaAmoni, Edhomu, madzimambo eZobha, navaFiristia. Kwose kwaakatendeukira, akavatambudza.
48 Akĩrũa na ũcamba, akĩhoota Aamaleki, na akĩhonokia Isiraeli kuuma moko-inĩ ma arĩa maamatahĩte indo.
Akarwa noumhare akakunda vaAmereki, akadzikinura vaIsraeri kubva mumaoko avaya vakanga vavapamba.
49 Ariũ a Saũlũ maarĩ Jonathani, na Ishivi, na Maliki-Shua. Mwarĩ wake ũrĩa mũkũrũ eetagwo Merabu, na ũrĩa mũnini eetagwo Mikali.
Vanakomana vaSauro vaiva Jonatani, Ishivhi naMarikishua. Zita romwanasikana wake wedangwe rainzi Merabhi, uye romuduku rainzi Mikari.
50 Mũtumia wake eetagwo Ahinoamu mwarĩ wa Ahimaazu. Mũnene wa ita rĩa Saũlũ eetagwo Abineri mũrũ wa Neri, nake Neri aarĩ ithe mũnini wa Saũlũ.
Zita romukadzi wake rainzi Ahinoami, mwanasikana waAhimaazi. Zita romutungamiri wehondo yaSauro rainzi Abhineri, mwanakomana waNeri, uye Neri akanga ari babamunini vaSauro.
51 Kishu ithe wa Saũlũ, na Neri ithe wa Abineri maarĩ ariũ a Abieli.
Kishi baba vaSauro naNeri baba vaAbhineri vakanga vari vanakomana vaAbhieri.
52 Matukũ-inĩ mothe ma Saũlũ nĩ kwarĩ na mbaara ndũrũ cia kũrũa na Afilisti, na rĩrĩa rĩothe Saũlũ angĩonire mũndũ ũrĩ hinya kana njamba, aamuoyaga, akamũtoonyia ita-inĩ rĩake.
Pamazuva ose aSauro pakanga pane hondo huru kwazvo navaFiristia, uye Sauro aiti kana akaona munhu ane simba uye akashinga, aimutora omuita murwi wake.
