7 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.”
To Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Samuel niya, “Kik ingʼi ber mar dende kata borne nikech asedage. Jehova Nyasaye ok ngʼi gik ma dhano ngʼiyo. Dhano ngʼiyo ber ma oko, Jehova Nyasaye to ngʼiyo chuny.”
8 Ipapo Jese akadana Abhinadhabhi akaita kuti apfuure napamberi paSamueri. Asi Samueri akati, “Jehovha haana kusarudza uyuwo.”

11 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.”
Omiyo nopenjo Jesse niya, “Magi kende e yawuoti?” Jesse nodwoko niya, “Pod nitiere wuowi ma chogo, en to okwayo rombe.” Samuel nowachone niya, “Or ngʼato mondo oome, nikech ok wabi bet piny ka kapok ochopo.”
12 Saka akatuma munhu kuti andouya naye. Akanga ari mutsvuku, ane chiso chakaisvonaka nechimiro chakanaka. Ipapo Jehovha akati, “Simuka umuzodze, nokuti ndiyeyu.”

13 Saka Samueri akatora gonamombe ramafuta akamuzodza pamberi pamadzikoma ake, uye kubva pazuva iroro Mweya waJehovha wakauya pamusoro paDhavhidhi nesimba. Ipapo Samueri akaenda kuRama.
Omiyo Samuel nokawo tungʼne mar mo mine owire e nyim owetene kendo kochakore chiengʼno Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuom Daudi gi teko. Bangʼe Samuel to nodok Rama.
14 Zvino Mweya waJehovha wakanga wabva pana Sauro, uye mweya wakaipa wakabva kuna Jehovha ukamutambudza.
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye noseweyo Saulo kendo Jehova Nyasaye nochiwo thuolo mondo roho marach othage.
15 Varanda vaSauro vakati kwaari, “Tarirai mweya wakaipa unobva kuna Mwari unokutambudzai.
Jotich Saulo nowachone niya, “Ngʼe ni roho marach machandini, Nyasaye ema ochiwone thuolo.
16 Ishe ngaarayire varanda vake vari pano kuti vatsvake mumwe munhu anogona kuridza mbira. Acharidza kana mweya wakaipa unobva kuna Mwari wauya pamusoro penyu, uye imi muchanzwa zviri nani.”
We ruodhwa ochik jotichne man kagi mondo odwar ngʼat manyalo goyo nyatiti. Obiro goye e kindeno ma roho marach ma Nyasaye omiyo thuolo obiro kuomi to iniwinj maber.”
17 Saka Sauro akati kuvaranda vake, “Tsvakai munhu anogona kuridza zvakanaka muuye naye kwandiri.”
Eka Saulo nowachone jotije niya, “Dwaruru ngʼat magoyo thum maber mondo ukelna.”

Achiel kuom jotich nodwoko niya, “Aseneno wuod Jesse moro ma ja-Bethlehem mongʼeyo goyo nyatiti. En ngʼat ma jachir bende en jalweny. Owuoyo maber kendo en jaber. To bende Jehova Nyasaye ni kode.”
19 Ipapo Sauro akatuma nhume kuna Jese akati, “Nditumirewo mwanakomana wako Dhavhidhi, uyo ari kumakwai.”
Eka Saulo nooro joote ir Jesse kawacho niya, “Orna wuodi Daudi makwayo rombe.”
20 Saka Jese akatora mbongoro akaitakudza chingwa, guchu rewaini nembudzana akazvitumira kuna Sauro naDhavhidhi mwanakomana wake.
Eka Jesse nokawo punda mokawo makati oketo e ngʼeye, ndede mar divai kod nyadiel mi nooro Daudi ma wuode oterone Saulo.
21 Dhavhidhi akasvika kuna Sauro akapinda kundomushandira. Sauro akamuda kwazvo, uye Dhavhidhi akava mumwe wavatakuri venhumbi dzake dzokurwa.
Daudi nobiro ir Saulo mi nodonjo mochako tiyone. Saulo nohere ahinya, kendo Daudi nobedo achiel kuom jatingʼne gige lweny.
22 Ipapo Sauro akatuma shoko kuna Jese, achiti, “Tendera Dhavhidhi kuti andishandire, nokuti ndinofadzwa naye.”
Eka Saulo nooro wach ni Jesse, kowacho niya, “Yie mondo Daudi obed jatija, nikech amor kode.”
23 Mweya waibva kuna Mwari waiti wasvika pamusoro paSauro, Dhavhidhi aibva atora mbira dzake oridza. Ipapo Sauro aibva anzwa kusununguka; onzwa zviri nani uye mweya wakaipa wobva wamusiya.
E kinde duto ma Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuom Saulo, Daudi to ne kawo nyatiti kendo goyo. Saulo ne yudo kwe; kendo nochako winjo maber, eka roho marach ne weye.
