UJonathani wakhuluma kuhle ngoDavida kuSawuli uyise wathi kuye, “Inkosi kayingenzi okubi encekwini yayo uDavida, konanga lutho kuwe, njalo akwenzileyo kukusize kakhulu.
5 Ya yi kasai da ransa sa’ad da ya kashe Bafilistin nan. Ubangiji ya ba wa dukan Isra’ila babban nasara, ka gani, ka kuma yi farin ciki. Don me za ka ci mutuncin amintaccen mutum kamar Dawuda ta wurin kashe shi ba tare da wani dalili ba?”

USawuli wamlalela uJonathani wasefunga isifungo lesi esithi, “Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ekhona, uDavida kayikubulawa.”
7 Ta haka Yonatan ya kira Dawuda ya gaya masa dukan maganarsu. Ya kawo shi wurin Shawulu, Dawuda kuwa ya zauna tare da Shawulu kamar dā.
Ngakho uJonathani wabiza uDavida wamtshela inkulumo yonke. Wamusa kuSawuli, uDavida wahlala loSawuli njengakuqala.
8 Wani yaƙi ya sāke tashi, Dawuda kuwa ya fita ya yaƙi Filistiyawa, ya kai musu hari mai tsanani, sai da suka gudu a gabansa.

9 Amma mugun ruhu daga Ubangiji ya sauko wa Shawulu yayinda yana zaune a cikin gidansa da māshi a hannunsa. Yayinda Dawuda yake bugan molo,
Kodwa umoya omubi owavela kuThixo wafika kuSawuli ehlezi endlini yakhe ephethe umkhonto wakhe ngesandla. Kwathi uDavida etshaya ichacho,
10 Shawulu ya yi ƙoƙari yă kafe shi da bango da māshinsa, amma Dawuda ya goce sa’ad da Shawulu jefa māshin a bango. A daren nan Dawuda ya nemi hanya ya gudu.
uSawuli wazama ukumnamathisela emdulini ngomkhonto wakhe, kodwa uDavida wavika uSawuli wagwaza umduli ngomkhonto. Ngalobobusuku uDavida waphunyuka wabaleka.
11 Shawulu ya aiki mutane zuwa gidan Dawuda su yi gadin gidan, su kuma kashe Dawuda. Amma Mikal matar Dawuda ta gargaɗe Dawuda, ta ce, “In ba ka gudu a daren nan ba, kashegari za a kashe ka.”
USawuli wathuma izithunywa endlini kaDavida ukuba bayilinde njalo bambulale ekuseni. Kodwa uMikhali, umkaDavida, wamxwayisa wathi, “Nxa ungabaleki ngalobubusuku ukuba uvikele impilo yakho kusasa uzabulawa.”
12 Haka kuwa Mikal ta sauko da Dawuda ta taga ya gudu, ya tsere.
Ngakho uMikhali wehlisela uDavida phansi emkhuphe ngefasitela, wabaleka-ke waphepha.
13 Sai Mikal ta ɗauki gunki ta kwantar da shi a gādo, ta sa masa gashin akuya a kansa, sai ta rufe da mayafi.
Emva kwalokho uMikhali wathatha isithombe wasilalisa embhedeni, wasembesa ngengubo ebeke uboya bembuzi ekhanda.
14 Da Shawulu ya aiki mutane su kama Dawuda. Mikal ta ce, “Ba shi da lafiya.”

USawuli wababuyisela abantu labo ukuba bayebona uDavida esithi kubo, “Mletheni kimi ngombheda wakhe ukuze ngimbulale.”
16 Amma da mutanen suka shiga sai suka ga gunkin a gadon, a wajen kan kuwa akwai gashin akuya.
Kodwa kwathi amadoda lawo engena, embhedeni kwakulesithombe, ekhanda kuloboya bembuzi.
17 Shawulu ya ce wa Mikal, “Don me kika ruɗe ni har kika bar maƙiyina ya gudu ya tsere?” Mikal ta ce masa, “Ya ce mini, ‘Idan ban bar shi ya tafi ba, zai kashe ni?’”
USawuli wathi kuMikhali, “Kungani ungikhohlise kanje wabalekisa isitha sami ukuze siphephe?” UMikhali wathi kuye, “Uthe kimi, ‘Yekela ngibaleke. Ngingakubulalelani na?’”
18 Da Dawuda ya gudu ya tsere, sai ya tafi wurin Sama’ila a Rama ya gaya masa dukan abin da Shawulu ya yi masa. Da shi da Sama’ila suka tafi Nayiwot suka zauna a can.
UDavida esebaleke waphepha, waya kuSamuyeli eRama wamtshela konke okwakwenziwe nguSawuli kuye. Ngakho yena loSamuyeli baya eNayothi bahlala khona.

20 Sai ya aiki mutane su je su kamo Dawuda, amma da suka ga ƙungiyar annabawa suna annabci tare da Sama’ila shugabansu a tsaye, sai Ruhun Allah ya sauko wa mutanen Shawulu, su ma suka fara yin annabci.
Ngakho wathuma abantu ukuba bayemthumba. Kodwa bathi bebona ixuku labaphrofethi liphrofitha, loSamuyeli emi khonapho njengomkhokheli wabo, uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela ebantwini bakaSawuli labo baphrofetha.
21 Shawulu ya sami labari game da wannan, sai ya sāke aiken waɗansu da yawa. Su ma suka shiga yin annabci. Shawulu ya sāke aiken mutane sau na uku, su kuma suka shiga yin annabci.
USawuli wakutshelwa lokho wasethuma abanye abantu, labo baphrofetha. USawuli wathuma abantu okwesithathu, labo futhi baphrofetha.
22 A ƙarshe, shi da kansa ya tashi ya tafi Rama. Ya bi ta babban rijiyar ruwan Seku. A can ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Ina Sama’ila da Dawuda suke?” Suka ce, “Suna cikin Nayiwot a Rama.”
Ekucineni, yena ngokwakhe wasuka waya eRama, wasesiya emgodini omkhulu eSekhu. Wabuza wathi, “USamuyeli loDavida bangaphi?” Bathi, “Le eNayothi eRama.”
23 Saboda haka Shawulu ya tafi Nayiwot a Rama, amma Ruhun Allah ya sauko masa, shi ma ya yi tafiya yana annabci har sai da ya isa Nayiwot.
Ngakho uSawuli waya eNayothi eRama. Kodwa uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela lakuye, wahamba ephrofitha waze wayafika eNayothi.
