Jehovha akati kuna Samueri, “Uchasvika riniko uchichema Sauro, sezvo ini ndakamuramba kuti asava mambo wavaIsraeri? Zadza gonamombe rako namafuta ugopinda munzira yako; ndiri kukutuma kuna Jese wokuBheterehema. Ndasarudza mumwe wavanakomana vake kuti ave mambo.”
2 Naye Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Nnaagenda ntya? Sawulo bw’anakiwulira ajja kunzita.” Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Weetwalire ennyana oyogere nti, ‘Nzize kuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama.’
Asi Samueri akati, “Ndingaenda seiko? Sauro achanzwa nezvazvo akandiuraya.” Jehovha akati, “Tora tsiru uende naro ugondoti, ‘Ndauya kuzobayira kuna Jehovha.’
3 Yita Yese ajje okuwaayo ssaddaaka, nzija kukulaga eky’okukola. Ojja kufuka amafuta ku oyo gwe nnaaba nnonze.”
Ukoke Jese kuti auye kuchibayiro, uye ini ndichakuratidza zvokuita. Unofanira kundizodzera uyo wandichakuratidza.”
4 Samwiri n’akola ekyo Mukama kye yamulagira. Bwe yatuuka e Besirekemu abakulu b’ekibuga ne bakankana olw’okutya bwe baamusisinkana era ne bamubuuza nti, “Ojja mirembe?”

5 N’abaddamu nti, “Weewaawo, mirembe. Nzize okuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama. Mwetukuze tugende ffenna tuweeyo ssaddaaka.” N’atukuza Yese ne batabani be, n’abayita okujja okuwaayo ssaddaaka.
Samueri akati, “Hongu, ndauya norugare; ndauya kuzobayira kuna Jehovha. Zvinatsei mugoenda neni kuchibayiro.” Ipapo akanatsa Jese navanakomana vake akavakoka kuti vauye kuchibayiro.
6 Bwe baatuuka n’atunuulira Eriyaabu, n’alowooza nti, “Mazima Mukama ono gw’afuseeko amafuta, era y’ayimiridde kaakano mu maaso ga Mukama.”
Vakati vasvika, Samueri akaona Eriabhi akafunga kuti, “Zvirokwazvo muzodziwa waJehovha ndiye amire pano pamberi paJehovha.”
7 Naye Mukama n’agamba Samwiri nti, “Totunuulira nfaanana ye wadde obuwanvu bwe, kubanga si gwe nnonze. Mukama tatunuulira ebyo abantu bye batunuulira. Abantu batunuulira bya kungulu naye Mukama atunuulira bya mu mutima.”
Asi Jehovha akati kuna Samueri, “Rega kutarira chiso chake kana mumhu wake, nokuti ndamuramba. Jehovha haatarisi zvinhu zvinoonekwa navanhu. Munhu anotarisa zviri kunze, asi Jehovha anotarisa pamwoyo.”
8 Awo Yese n’ayita Abinadaabu, n’amuyisa mu maaso ga Samwiri. Naye Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Oyo naye Mukama si gw’alonze.”
Ipapo Jese akadana Abhinadhabhi akaita kuti apfuure napamberi paSamueri. Asi Samueri akati, “Jehovha haana kusarudza uyuwo.”
9 Yese n’ayita Samma n’amusimbawo, naye Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Era n’oyo Mukama si gw’alonze.”
Jese akaita kuti Shama apfuure napo, asi Samueri akati, “Nouyu haana kusarudzwa naJehovha.”
10 Yese n’ayisa batabani be omusanvu mu maaso ga Samwiri, naye Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Ku bo tekuli n’omu Mukama gw’alonze.”
Jese akaita kuti vanakomana vake vanomwe vapfuure napamberi paSamueri, asi Samueri akati kwaari, “Jehovha haana kusarudza ava.”
11 N’abuuza Yese nti, “Bano be batabani bo bokka?” Yese n’addamu nti, “Ekyasigaddeyo asingira ddala obuto, alunda ndiga.” Samwiri n’agamba Yese nti, “Mutumye; tetujja kuweera okutuusa lw’anajja.”
Saka akabvunza Jese akati, “Ava ndivo vose vanakomana vaunavo here?” Jese akapindura akati, “Kuchino mumwe muduku kuna vose, asi ari kufudza makwai.” Samueri akati, “Tuma munhu kwaari; hatingagari pasi kusvikira asvika pano.”
12 N’amutumya, n’aleetebwa. Yali mumyufu, n’amaaso ge nga malungi, era ng’alabika bulungi nnyo. Awo Mukama n’ayogera nti, “Golokoka omufukeko amafuta; ye wuuyo.”
Saka akatuma munhu kuti andouya naye. Akanga ari mutsvuku, ane chiso chakaisvonaka nechimiro chakanaka. Ipapo Jehovha akati, “Simuka umuzodze, nokuti ndiyeyu.”

Mumwe wavaranda akapindura akati, “Ndaona mwanakomana waJese wokuBheterehema anoziva kuridza mbira. Murume asingatyi uye murwi. Anogona kutaura zvakanaka uye munhu akaisvonaka. Uye Jehovha anaye.”
19 Awo Sawulo n’atuma ababaka eri Yese, ng’agamba nti, “Mpeereza mutabani wo Dawudi, alabirira endiga.”
Ipapo Sauro akatuma nhume kuna Jese akati, “Nditumirewo mwanakomana wako Dhavhidhi, uyo ari kumakwai.”
20 Yese n’addira endogoyi n’agitikka emigaati, n’eccupa y’envinnyo n’omwana gw’embuzi, n’abiweereza wamu ne mutabani we Dawudi eri Sawulo.
Saka Jese akatora mbongoro akaitakudza chingwa, guchu rewaini nembudzana akazvitumira kuna Sauro naDhavhidhi mwanakomana wake.
21 Dawudi n’atuuka eri Sawulo, n’afuuka omu ku baweereza be. Sawulo n’amwagala nnyo, era n’amufuula omu ku abo abaasitulanga ebyokulwanyisa bye.
