1 Filistiyawa suka tattara dukan rundunoninsu a Afek. Isra’ila kuwa suka yi sansani kusa da maɓulɓular da take Yezireyel.
VaFiristia vakaunganidza varwi vavo paAfeki, uye vaIsraeri vakadzika musasa patsime raiva paJezireeri.
2 Sa’ad da sarakuna Filistiyawa suke wucewa da rundunarsu na mutum ɗari-ɗari da na dubu-dubu. Dawuda da mutanensa suna biye a baya tare da Akish.
Vatongi vavaFiristia pavaifamba namapoka avo amazana mazana uye ezviuru zviuru, Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vaifamba vari mushure maAkishi.
3 Komandodin Filistiyawa suka ce, “Waɗannan Ibraniyawa kuma fa?” Akish ya ce, “Wannan shi ne Dawuda hafsan Shawulu, sarkin Isra’ila. Yana nan tare da ni shekara guda ke nan. Ban kuwa taɓa samunsa da wani lahani ba tun daga ranar da ya bar Shawulu.”
Vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakabvunza vakati, “Ko, vaHebheru ava vanodei?” Akishi akapindura akati, “Ko, uyu haazi Dhavhidhi, akanga ari muchinda waSauro mambo weIsraeri here? Anga agere neni kwenguva inopfuura gore, uye kubva pazuva raakabva kuna Sauro kusvikira zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa maari.”
4 Amma komandodin Filistiyawa suka yi fushi, suka ce, “Ka sa mutumin nan yă koma zuwa wurin da ka ba shi yă zauna. Ba zai bi mu zuwa wurin yaƙi ba. Yana iya juya a kanmu lokacin yaƙin. Zai iya yin amfani da wannan zarafi yă ciccire kawunanmu don yă faranta wa maigidansa rai?
Asi vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakamutsamwira vakati, “Dzosai munhu uyu kwakare, kuti adzokere kunzvimbo yamakamurayira kuti agare. Haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo kuitira kuti arege kutipindukira tiri pakurwa. Zvingava nani kwaari kuti awane nyasha kuna tenzi wake ndezvipiko, hakusi kuti agure misoro yavanhu vedu here?
5 Tuna fa, ba shi ne Dawuda ɗin da ake girmama da rawa da waƙoƙi ana cewa, “‘Shawulu ya kashe dubbai, Dawuda kuwa dubbun dubbai ba’?”
Ko, uyu handiye Dhavhidhi wavakaimba pamusoro pake vachitamba vachiti: “‘Sauro akauraya zviuru zvake, uye Dhavhidhi makumi ezviuru zvake’?”
6 Saboda haka Akish ya kira Dawuda ya ce masa, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, na amince da kai tun daga ranar da ka zo wurina har yă zuwa yau, ban same ka da wani laifi ba, na kuma yi farin ciki in sa ka a cikin sojojina don ka yi mini aiki. Amma masu mulki nawa ba su yarda da kai ba.
Saka Akishi akadana Dhavhidhi akati kwaari, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, iwe wanga wakavimbika, uye ini ndaifara kuti iwe ushande neni muhondo. Kubva pazuva rawakasvika kwandiri kusvikira iye zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa mauri, asi madzishe haabvumirani newe.
7 Sai ka juya ka koma ka isa lafiya ba tare da ɓata wa masu mulkin Filistiyawa rai ba.”
Chidzoka hako kwakare norugare; urege kuita chinhu chisingafadzi madzishe avaFiristia.”
8 Dawuda ya ce wa Akish, “Me na yi? Ka taɓa samun bawanka da laifi tun daga ranar da na zo har zuwa yanzu? Ina dalilin da ba zan tafi tare da kai in yaƙi maƙiyin ranka yă daɗe, sarki ba?”
Dhavhidhi akamubvunza akati, “Asi ndaiteiko hangu? Makawaneiko chakaipa kumuranda wenyu kubva pazuva randakasvika kwamuri kusvikira zvino? Ndinoregereiko kundorwa navavengi vashe wangu mambo?”
9 Akish ya ce, “A ganina kai marar laifi ne kamar mala’ikan Allah, duk da haka shugabannin sojojin Filistiyawa sun ce, ‘Ba zai tafi yaƙi tare da mu ba.’
Akishi akati, “Ndinoziva kuti wanga uchifadza pamberi pangu somutumwa waMwari; asi zvazvo, vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vati, ‘Iye haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo.’
10 Ka tashi da sassafe, kai da bayin shugabanka da suka zo tare da kai. Da gari ya waye sai ku kama hanya.”
Zvino muka mangwanani-ngwanani, pamwe chete navaranda vatenzi wako avo vakauya newe, ugobva achiri mangwanani pakunotanga kuchena.”
11 Gari na wayewa tun da sassafe Dawuda da mutanensa suka tashi suka kama hanyar komawa ƙasar Filistiyawa. Filistiyawa kuwa suka haura zuwa Yezireyel.
Saka Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakamuka mangwanani-ngwanani kuti vadzokere kunyika yavaFiristia, uye vaFiristia vakakwidza kuJezireeri.
