Pavaitamba, vaiimba vachiti: “Sauro akauraya zviuru zvamazana ake, naDhavhidhi makumi ezviuru zvamazama ake.”
8 Sawulo olwawulira ebigambo ebyo n’asunguwala nnyo, era ne kimukola bubi nnyo. N’ayogera nti, “Dawudi bamuwaanye n’emitwalo, nze ne bampaana n’enkumi; kiki ky’ataafune bw’ataalye bwakabaka?”

9 Awo okuva mu kiseera ekyo Sawulo n’akwatirwa Dawudi obuggya.
Kubva panguva iyoyo Sauro akatarira Dhavhidhi neziso rine godo.
10 Olunaku olwaddirira omwoyo omubi okuva eri Katonda ne gujja ku Sawulo n’amaanyi mangi, n’ayogera eby’obunnabbi mu lubiri lwe, Dawudi nga bw’akuba entongooli nga bwe yakolanga buli lunaku. Sawulo yalina effumu mu ngalo ze,
Fume mangwana, mweya wakaipa wakabva kuna Mwari wakauya nesimba pamusoro paSauro. Akanga achiprofita ari mumba make, Dhavhidhi achiridza mbira, sezvaaisiita nguva dzose. Sauro akanga ane pfumo muruoko rwake,
11 n’alikasuka, ng’ayogera mu mutima gwe nti, “Kanfumite Dawudi mmukwasize ku kisenge.” Naye Dawudi n’alyewoma emirundi ebiri.
uye akaripotsera, achiti mumwoyo make, “Ndichabayira Dhavhidhi kumadziro.” Asi Dhavhidhi akamunzvenga kaviri kose.
12 Awo Sawulo n’atya Dawudi, kubanga Mukama yali wamu naye, kyokka ng’avudde ku Sawulo.
Sauro akanga achitya Dhavhidhi, nokuti Jehovha akanga anaye asi akanga abva kuna Sauro.
13 Sawulo kyeyava aziyiza Dawudi okujja mu maaso ge n’amufuula omuduumizi ow’abasajja olukumi, era olw’omulimu ogwo ne yeeyongera okwatiikirira mu bantu.
Saka akamuendesa kure naye uye akamuita kuti ave mukuru wechiuru chavarwi, uye Dhavhidhi akatungamirira varwi muhondo dzavo.
14 Dawudi n’afuna omukisa mu buli kye yakolanga, kubanga Mukama yali wamu naye.
Pazvinhu zvose zvaaiita aibudirira zvikuru kwazvo, nokuti Jehovha akanga anaye.
15 Awo Sawulo bwe yalaba Dawudi ng’afuna emikisa, n’amutya.
Sauro akati achiona kuti Dhavhidhi aibudirira sei, akamutya.
16 Naye Isirayiri yenna ne Yuda ne baagala Dawudi, kubanga yakulemberanga bulungi.
Asi vaIsraeri navaJudha vose vaida Dhavhidhi, nokuti akavatungamirira muhondo dzavo.
17 Awo Sawulo n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Nzija kukuwa muwala wange omukulu Merabu, abe mukyala wo, mpeereza n’obuvumu era lwana entalo za Mukama.” Sawulo n’ateesa mu mutima gwe nti, “Kikafuuwe nze okugolola omukono gwange okumukolako akabi. Ekyo Abafirisuuti be balikikola.”
Sauro akati kuna Dhavhidhi, “Hoyu Merabhi mwanasikana wangu mukuru. Ndichamupa kwauri kuti ave mukadzi wako; chete iwe chindishandira wakashinga uye urwe hondo dzaJehovha.” Nokuti Sauro akafunga mumwoyo make achiti, “Handichasimudzi ruoko rwangu kuti ndirwe naye. VaFiristia ngavaite izvozvo!”
18 Naye Dawudi n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Nze ani, n’ennyumba ye waffe be baani, era n’ekika kya kitange kye kiki mu Isirayiri, nze okuba mukoddomi wa kabaka?”
Asi Dhavhidhi akati kuna Sauro, “Ini ndini ani hangu, uye mhuri yangu chiiko, kana imba yababa vangu muIsraeri, kuti ndive mukuwasha wamambo?”
19 Naye ekiseera bwe kyatuuka omuwala wa Sawulo Merabu okuweebwa Dawudi, ne bamuwa Aduliyeri Omumekolasi okumuwasa.
Saka nguva yakati yasvika yokuti Merabhi, mwanasikana waSauro, apiwe kuna Dhavhidhi, akawaniswa kuna Adhirieri weMehorati.
20 Awo muwala wa Sawulo omulala Mikali yali ayagala Dawudi, era Sawulo bwe yakiwulira, n’akisanyukira.
Zvino Mikari mwanasikana waSauro akanga achida Dhavhidhi, saka vakati vaudza Sauro izvozvo, akafara.
21 Sawulo n’alowooza mu mutima gwe nti, “Nzija kumumuwa afuuke omutego, omukono gw’Abafirisuuti gulyoke gumuzikirize.” Sawulo kyeyava agamba Dawudi nti, “Kaakano ofunye omukisa ogwokubiri okuba mukoddomi wange.”
Akafunga akati, “Ndichamupa iye kwaari, kuitira kuti agova musungo kwaari uye kuitira kuti zvimwe ruoko rwavaFiristia rungarwe naye.” Saka Sauro akati kuna Dhavhidhi, “Zvino wava nomukana wechipiri wokuti uve mukuwasha wangu.”
22 Awo Sawulo n’alagira abaweereza be nti, “Mwogere ne Dawudi kyama mumugambe nti, ‘Laba, kabaka akusanyukira, ate n’abaweereza be bonna bakwagala, noolwekyo beera mukoddomi wa kabaka.’”
Ipapo Sauro akarayira varanda vake akati, “Tauriranai naDhavhidhi pakavanda muti, ‘Tarira, mambo ari kukufarira, uye varanda vake vose vanokuda; zvino, chiva mukuwasha wake.’”
23 Ebigambo ebyo ne babitegeeza Dawudi. Naye Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Mulowooza nga kintu kitono okubeera mukoddomi wa kabaka? Nze ndi musajja mwavu atamanyiddwa nnyo.”
Vakadzokorora mashoko iwaya kuna Dhavhidhi. Asi Dhavhidhi akati, “Munofunga kuti chinhu chiduku here kuva mukuwasha wamambo? Ndinongori munhu murombo zvake uye asingazivikanwi.”
24 Abaweereza ba Sawulo ne bamutuusaako ebigambo bya Dawudi.
Varanda vaSauro vakati vamuudza zvakanga zvataurwa naDhavhidhi,
25 Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Mugambe Dawudi nti, ‘Tewali kirala kabaka ky’ayagala okuggyako ebikuta by’Abafirisuuti kikumi okwesasuza ku balabe be, n’oluvannyuma onoowasa muwala we.’” Sawulo yali ayagala Dawudi attibwe Abafirisuuti.
Sauro akati, “Muti kuna Dhavhidhi, ‘Mambo haasi kuda rimwezve roora romwenga rinokunda zvikanda zvapamberi zvavaFiristia zana, kuti atsive vavengi vake.’” Urongwa hwaSauro hwakanga huri hwokuurayisa Dhavhidhi navaFiristia.
26 Awo abaweereza be ne bagenda ne bategeeza Dawudi ebigambo ebyo, Dawudi n’asanyuka nnyo okuba mukoddomi wa kabaka. Awo ekiseera ekiragaane nga tekinnaba na kuyitawo,
Varanda vakati vataurira Dhavhidhi zvinhu izvi, akafara kuti ave mukuwasha wamambo. Saka nguva yakatarwa isati yapera,
27 Dawudi n’abasajja be ne bagenda ne batta Abafirisuuti ebikumi bibiri. N’aleeta ebikuta byabwe, n’awaayo omuwendo ogutuukiridde eri kabaka, alyoke abeere mukoddomi wa kabaka. Awo Sawulo n’alyoka amuwa muwala we Mikali amuwase.
Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakabuda vakauraya mazana maviri avaFiristia. Akauya nezvikanda zvavo zvapamberi akazvipa zvose zvakakwana kuna mambo kuitira kuti zvimwe angava mukuwasha wamambo. Ipapo Sauro akamupa Mikari mwanasikana wake kuti ave mukadzi wake.
28 Naye Sawulo bwe yategeera nga Mukama ali wamu ne Dawudi, ate nga ne muwala we Mikali ayagala Dawudi,
Sauro akati aona kuti Jehovha akanga ana Dhavhidhi uye kuti Mikari mwanasikana wake akanga achida Dhavhidhi,
29 Sawulo ne yeeyongera okumutya, era n’aba mulabe wa Dawudi okuva mu kiseera ekyo.
Sauro akatonyanya kumutya, uye akaramba ari muvengi wake pamazuva ake ose.
30 Abaduumizi b’Abafirisuuti ne beeyongera okubatabaalanga, era buli lwe baabalumbanga, Dawudi n’awangulanga okusinga n’Abaserikale ba Sawulo abalala bonna. Erinnya lya Dawudi ne lyatiikirira nnyo.
Vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakaramba vachienda kundorwa, uye nguva dzose dzavaienda, Dhavhidhi aibudirira kupfuura varanda vose vaSauro, uye zita rake rakazonyanya kuzivikanwa.
