UDavida wasesithi enhliziyweni yakhe: Sengizabhubha ngolunye usuku ngesandla sikaSawuli. Kakulalutho olungcono kimi ngaphandle kokuphepha lokuphepha ngiye elizweni lamaFilisti, loSawuli uzadela ngami ukungidinga futhi kuwo wonke umngcele wakoIsrayeli; ngokunjalo ngiphephe esandleni sakhe.
2 Huno nentahino Deviti'a agranema vanoma nehaza 600'a sondia vahe'ene, Gati kini ne' Maoka nemofo Akisi'ene umani'naku rugitagi'za vu'naze.
Wasesukuma uDavida wachapha, yena labantu abangamakhulu ayisithupha ayelabo, waya kuAkishi indodana kaMahoki, inkosi yeGathi.

Ana ara Kameri kumateti Nebali kento a'ma eri'nea a'e'ne zanavreno vu'ne.
UDavida wasehlala loAkishi eGathi, yena labantu bakhe, ngulowo lalowo lendlu yakhe; uDavida labomkakhe bobabili, uAhinowama umJizereyelikazi loAbigayili umKharmelikazi umkaNabali.
4 Hagi Deviti'ma Gati moparega vu'nea nanekema Solima eme asamizageno nentahino'a, Devitina ahenakura mago'anena rotagoa osu'ne.
Kwathi kubikwa kuSawuli ukuthi uDavida ubalekele eGathi, kabe esamdinga futhi.
5 Hagi mago zupa Deviti'a amanage huno Akisina asmi'ne, Kagrama nagri'ma kavesi nante'nunka, mago osi kumaka'a namige'na anampi naga'ninena umani'neno. Eri'za vahekamo'na kini ne'moka rankumapina omanigahue.
UDavida wasesithi kuAkishi: Uba khathesi ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, kabangiphe indawo komunye wemizi emaphandleni ukuthi ngihlale khona; ngoba inceku yakho izahlalelani lawe emzini wenkosi?
6 Huno higeno, ana knazupa Akisi'a Ziglak kuma ami'ne. (E'inagafare Ziglak kumamo'a Juda vahe kinimofo kuma meno menina ama knarera ehanati'ne.)
UAkishi wasemnika iZikilagi ngalolosuku. Ngakho iZikilagi ingeyamakhosi akoJuda kuze kube lamuhla.
7 Hagi Deviti'a Filistia mopafina mago kafugi 4'a ika mani'ne.
Lenani lensuku uDavida azihlala elizweni lamaFilisti lalingumnyaka lenyanga ezine.
8 Ana huteno Deviti'ene sondia vahe'amo'za vu'za, Gesuri vahe'ma Kirzeti vahe'ma Ameleki vahe'enena hara ome hu'naze. Ana vahera za'za kna e'i ana mopafina mani'naza vaheki'za, ana mopazmimofo agema'amo'a Suriti vuno Isipi tva'onte ome atre'ne.
UDavida labantu bakhe basebesenyuka bahlasela amaGeshuri lamaGirizi, lamaAmaleki, ngoba lawo ayengabahlali balelolizwe kwasendulo, lapho usiya eShuri, njalo kuze kube selizweni leGibhithe.
9 Hagi Deviti'ma ha'ma ome hunezmanteno'a, maka venenene a'nenena zamahehna nehuno, sipisipi afuma, bulimakao afu'ma, donki afu'ma, kemori afuma kukenanena e'nerino ete kini ne' Akisima mani'nerega e'ne.
UDavida waselitshaya ilizwe, kazatshiya ophilayo, owesilisa lowesifazana, wathatha izimvu lenkomo labobabhemi lamakamela lezigqoko, wabuyela wafika kuAkishi.
10 Hagi Akisi'a antahigeno, Kagra menina iga hara ome nehane? Higeno'a Deviti'a amanage huno kenona'a hu'ne, Juda vahe'ene Negevi mopamofo mago asoparega hara ome huge, mago kaziga asoparega Jerami vahe'ene hara ome huge, mago kaziga asoparega Kenaiti vahe'ene hara ome huge nehue.
Lapho uAkishi esithi: Belihlasela ngaphi lamuhla? UDavida wayesithi: Ngaseningizimu yakoJuda, langaseningizimu yamaJerameli, langaseningizimu yamaKeni.
11 Hagi Deviti'a ha'ma ome nehuno'a, magore huno vene'nene a'nenena ozmatreno zamahe fri vagare'ne.

Hagi Deviti'a Filistiama mani'nea knafina, e'inahu'za huvava huno vu'ne.
UDavida katshiyanga owesilisa kumbe owesifazana ophilayo, ukuletha ilizwi eGathi, esithi: Hlezi bakhulume ngathi, besithi: Wenze njalo uDavida. Wawunjalo-ke umkhuba wakhe zonke izinsuku azihlala elizweni lamaFilisti.
12 Hagi Akisi'ma agesama antahiana Deviti'a tamage nehie nehuno, amanage huno antahi'ne, Agra'a naga Israeli vahe hara ome hunezamante huno agesa antahi'ne. Hagi meninteti'ma vaniana nagri eri'za vahe manino vugahie huno antahi'ne.
UAkishi wasemkholwa uDavida esithi: Uzenze waba levumba kakhulu ebantwini bakibo koIsrayeli. Ngakho uzakuba yinceku yami kuze kube nininini.
