1 Asi Dhavhidhi akafunga mumwoyo make, akati, “Rimwe ramazuva ano ndichaparadzwa noruoko rwaSauro. Chinhu chiri nani chandingaita ndechokutizira kunyika yavaFiristia. Ipapo Sauro acharega kunditsvaka muIsraeri yose, uye ndichapukunyuka muruoko rwake.”
A I iho la o Davida iloko o kona naau, e make auanei au i ka lima o Saula i kekahi la: e aho e holo koke au ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia; alaila aole manao o Saula e imi hou mai ia'u ma na wahi a pau o ka Iseraela: pela e pakele ai au i kona lima.
2 Saka Dhavhidhi akabva navarume mazana matanhatu vakanga vanaye akaenda kuna Akishi mwanakomana waMaoki mambo weGati.
Ku ae la o Davida, a hele aku la me na kanaka eono haneri me ia io Akisa la, ke keiki a Maoka, ke alii o Gata.
3 Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakandogara muGati naAkishi. Murume mumwe nomumwe akanga ane mhuri yake, uye Dhavhidhi akanga ana vakadzi vake vaviri vanoti: Ahinoami weJezireeri naAbhigairi weKarimeri, chirikadzi yaNabhari.
A noho iho la o Davida me Akisa ma Gata, oia a me kona poe kanaka, o kela kanaka keia kanaka me kona ohua, o Davida me kana mau wahine, o Ahinoama no Iezereela, a o Abigaila no Karemela, ka wahine a Nabala.
4 Sauro akati anzwa kuti Dhavhidhi akanga atizira kuGati, haana kuzomutsvakazve.
A haiia mai la ia Saula, ua holo o Davida ma Gata: aole ia i imi hou aku ia ia.
5 Ipapo Dhavhidhi akati kuna Akishi, “Kana ndawana nyasha pamberi penyu, regai ndipiwe hangu nzvimbo mune rimwe ramaguta omunyika kuti ndigareko. Muranda wenyu angagara seiko muguta ramambo nemi?”
Olelo aku la o Davida ia Akisa, Ina paha i alohaia mai au i kou maka, e haawi mai oe ia'u i wahi ma kekahi kulanakauhale ma ke kula i noho ai au malaila: no ke aha la o noho ai au me oe ma ke kulanakauhale alii?
6 Saka musi iwoyo, Akishi akamupa Zikiragi, uye rikava guta ramadzimambo eJudha kusvikira nhasi.
A haawi aku la o Akisa ia Zikelaga nona ia la: no ia mea, lilo aku la o Zikelaga no na'lii o ka Iuda a hiki i keia la.
7 Dhavhidhi akagara munyika yavaFiristia kwegore nemwedzi mina.
A o na la o ko Davida noho ana ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia, hookahi ia makahiki a me na malama keu eha.
8 Zvino Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakaenda vakandopamba vaGeshuri, vaGeziri, navaAmareki. (Kubva kare vanhu ava vakanga vachigara munyika yaisvika kuShuri neIjipiti.)
Hele aku la o Davida me kona poe kanaka, a kaua aku la i ko Gesura, a me ko Gerezi, a me ka Amaleka: no ka mea, he poe kamaaina kahiko lakou o ka aina, kahi e hele aku ai i Sura, a hiki loa i ka aina o Aigupita.
9 Dhavhidhi aiti akarwisa nzvimbo, akanga asingasiyi murume kana mukadzi ari mupenyu, asi aitora makwai nemombe, mbongoro, nengamera, nenguo. Ipapo akadzokera kuna Akishi.
A luku aku la o Davida i ka aina, aole i koe kekahi kanaka, aole hoi kekahi wahine e ola ana, a lawe ae la ia i na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na hoki, a me na kamelo, me ka lole, a hoi aku la a hiki io Akisa la.
10 Akishi aiti amubvunza kuti, “Wanga waenda kundopamba kupiko nhasi?” Dhavhidhi aiti, “Kurutivi rweZasi kweJudha kana kuti kurutivi rweZasi kweJerameeri kana kuti kurutivi rweZasi kweKeni.”
I mai la o Akisa, Mahea kahi a oukou i hao ai i keia la? I aku la o Davida, ma ka aoao hema o ka Iuda, a ma ka aoao hema o ka Ierahemeeli, a ma ka aoao hema o ko Keni.
11 Haana kusiya murume kana mukadzi ari mupenyu kuti auye navo kuGati, nokuti akafunga mumwoyo make kuti, “Vangazotirevera vachiti, ‘Izvi ndizvo zvaitwa naDhavhidhi.’” Uye aya ndiwo akanga ari maitiro ake pakugara kwake kwose munyika yavaFiristia.
Aole i hoopakele o Davida i kekahi kanaka, aole hoi i kekahi wahine e ola ana e hele ma Gata e olelo, o hai aku lakou no makou, i ka i ana'e, Pela o Davida i hana'i, a pela hoi kana e hana aku ai i na manawa a pau o kona noho ana ma ka aina o na Pilisetia.
12 Akishi akavimba naDhavhidhi akati mumwoyo make, “Ava munhu anovengwa kwazvo navanhu vokwake, ivo vaIsraeri, zvokuti achava muranda wangu nokusingaperi.”
Manao aku la o Akisa i ka Davida, ua oiaio, i iho la, Ua hoolilo oia ia ia iho i mea hoowahawaha loa ia e kona poe kanaka, e ka Iseraela, a e lilo ia i kauwa na'u i ka manawa mau loa.
