2 Vatongi vavaFiristia pavaifamba namapoka avo amazana mazana uye ezviuru zviuru, Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vaifamba vari mushure maAkishi.
Esime Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋakplɔlawo nɔ woƒe aʋalɔgowo kplɔm va yina la, David kple eƒe amewo nɔ wo megbe kple Fia Akis.
3 Vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vakabvunza vakati, “Ko, vaHebheru ava vanodei?” Akishi akapindura akati, “Ko, uyu haazi Dhavhidhi, akanga ari muchinda waSauro mambo weIsraeri here? Anga agere neni kwenguva inopfuura gore, uye kubva pazuva raakabva kuna Sauro kusvikira zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa maari.”
Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋakplɔlawo bia be, “Nu ka wɔm Israelviwo le le afi sia?” Fia Akis gblɔ na wo be, “Ame siae nye David, Israel fia Saul ƒe subɔla ame si si le egbɔ. Ƒe aɖewo nye esi wòle gbɔnye eye nyemekpɔ vodada aɖeke le eŋu kpɔ tso esime wòva gbɔnye o.”

Haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo kuitira kuti arege kutipindukira tiri pakurwa. Zvingava nani kwaari kuti awane nyasha kuna tenzi wake ndezvipiko, hakusi kuti agure misoro yavanhu vedu here?
Ke Filistitɔwo ƒe kplɔlawo do dɔmedzoe eye wogblɔ be, “Na woatrɔ adzo, womele aʋa yi ge kpli mí o. Woava trɔ le mía yome. Mɔ nyui aɖe li si dzi wòato awɔ ɖeka kple eƒe aƒetɔ, Saul, wu tɔtrɔ ɖe mía ŋu le aʋa la mea?
5 Ko, uyu handiye Dhavhidhi wavakaimba pamusoro pake vachitamba vachiti: “‘Sauro akauraya zviuru zvake, uye Dhavhidhi makumi ezviuru zvake’?”
Ame sia ŋue nyɔnuwo dzi ha le, le woƒe ɣeɖuɖuwo me be, “Saul wu akpe eye David wu akpewo!”
6 Saka Akishi akadana Dhavhidhi akati kwaari, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, iwe wanga wakavimbika, uye ini ndaifara kuti iwe ushande neni muhondo. Kubva pazuva rawakasvika kwandiri kusvikira iye zvino, handina kuwana chakaipa mauri, asi madzishe haabvumirani newe.
Ale Fia Akis yɔ David kple eƒe amewo eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Metsɔ Yehowa ka atam be miawoe nye ame nyuitɔ siwo medo goe kpɔ eye mebu be miayi aʋa kpli mí ke nye aʋafiawo melɔ̃ ɖe edzi o.
7 Chidzoka hako kwakare norugare; urege kuita chinhu chisingafadzi madzishe avaFiristia.”
Meɖe kuku, migawɔ nu si ado dɔmedzoe na wo o, ke boŋ mitrɔ dzo kpoo!”
8 Dhavhidhi akamubvunza akati, “Asi ndaiteiko hangu? Makawaneiko chakaipa kumuranda wenyu kubva pazuva randakasvika kwamuri kusvikira zvino? Ndinoregereiko kundorwa navavengi vashe wangu mambo?”
David bia Akis be, “Nu ka mewɔ eye nu ka nèkpɔ le wò dɔla ŋu tso gbesigbe meva gbɔwò va se ɖe egbe, si na be miawɔm ale? Nu ka ta nyemekpɔ mɔ aɖawɔ aʋa kple nye aƒetɔ ƒe futɔwo o?”
9 Akishi akati, “Ndinoziva kuti wanga uchifadza pamberi pangu somutumwa waMwari; asi zvazvo, vakuru vehondo yavaFiristia vati, ‘Iye haafaniri kuenda nesu kuhondo.’
Akis metrɔ eƒe tameɖoɖo o. Egagblɔ be, “Le nye ɖeka gome la, èle abe mawudɔla ene, ke nye aʋafiawo le vɔvɔ̃m na wò kpekpe ɖe mía ŋu le aʋawɔwɔ me.
10 Zvino muka mangwanani-ngwanani, pamwe chete navaranda vatenzi wako avo vakauya newe, ugobva achiri mangwanani pakunotanga kuchena.”
Mifɔ ŋdi kanya eye miadzo ne agu dze ko.”
11 Saka Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakamuka mangwanani-ngwanani kuti vadzokere kunyika yavaFiristia, uye vaFiristia vakakwidza kuJezireeri.
Ale David kple eƒe amewo fɔ ŋdi kanya be yewoatrɔ ayi Filistitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi eye Filistitɔwo hã dzo yi Yezreel.
