5 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Saũlũ, onire mbũtũ ya ita ya Afilisti, agĩĩtigĩra; ngoro yake ĩkĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya.

Asi mukadzi akati kwaari, “Zvirokwazvo unoziva iwe zvakaitwa naSauro. Akauraya masvikiro navavuki kubva panyika. Ko, waisirei musungo muupenyu hwangu kuti undiurayise?”

16 Samũeli akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũgũkĩnjũũria nĩkĩ, kuona atĩ rĩu Jehova nĩakwehereire na agatuĩka thũ yaku?
Samueri akati, “Unondibvunzireiko ini, sezvo zvino Jehovha akabva kwauri akava muvengi wako?
17 Jehova nĩekĩte o ta ũrĩa oigire na kanua gakwa. Jehova nĩagũtunyĩte ũthamaki uume moko-inĩ maku, na akaũnengera mũndũ wa itũũra rĩaku, nĩwe Daudi.
Jehovha akaita zvaakataura kare kubudikidza neni. Jehovha akabvarura umambo akahubvisa mumaoko ako akahupa kuno mumwe wavavakidzani vako, kuna Dhavhidhi.
18 Nĩ ũndũ wee ndwathĩkĩire Jehova, kana ũgĩkinyĩria Amaleki mangʼũrĩ make mahiũ, nĩkĩo Jehova agwĩkĩte ũguo ũmũthĩ.
Nokuti hauna kuteerera Jehovha, kana kuratidza hasha dzake dzinotyisa pamusoro peAmareki, Jehovha azviita izvi nhasi kwauri.
19 Jehova nĩegũkũneana, wee hamwe na Isiraeli, kũrĩ Afilisti, na rũciũ wee na ariũ aku mũgaakorwo mũrĩ hamwe na niĩ. Jehova nĩagacooka aneane mbũtũ cia ita cia Isiraeli kũrĩ Afilisti.”
Jehovha achaisa vaIsraeri pamwe chete newe kuvaFiristia, uye mangwana iwe navanakomana vako muchava neni. Jehovha achaisazve hondo yavaIsraeri kuvaFiristia.”
20 O hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩgũa, agĩĩtambũrũkia thĩ aiyũrĩtwo nĩ guoya nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro ũcio wa Samũeli. Hinya wake ũgĩthira, tondũ ndaarĩĩte kĩndũ mũthenya ũcio wothe o na ũtukũ.
