Sauli n’abahungu biwe bagwa mu rugamba

Inkuru ya mbere y'iki gitabo ni ugutsindwa. Sauli, akomeretse, yigwa ku nkota yiwe; abahungu biwe bapfana na we, Abafilisitiya bamanika umutwe wiwe mu rusengero rwabo. Ab'i Yabeshi-gileyadi basubirana imivyimba. Urubanza ni uku: ubuhemu, kuko atarondeye Data wacu, maze ubwami bugahindukira kuri Dawidi.

Igice 10.

Abafilisitiya bararwanya Isirayeli; abagabo ba Isirayeli barahunga imbere yabo, maze baraguma bikiwe ku musozi Gilubowa. Abafilisitiya barakurikira Sauli n’abahungu biwe, maze bica Yonatani na Abinadabu na Maluki-shuwa, abahungu ba Sauli. Urugamba ruragwira cane iruhande rwa Sauli; abarasha imyampi baramushikako, baramukomeretsa cane. Sauli abwira uwamutwaza ibirwanisho ati: “Sokora inkota yawe, uncumite, kutari ukwo aba batagabwe boza bankubagure.” Mugabo yaranka, atinya. Nuko Sauli yifatira inkota, aragwa kuri yo.

Uwamutwaza ibirwanisho abonye ko Sauli yapfuye, na we nyene aragwa ku nkota yiwe, arapfa. Nuko Sauli arapfa, hamwe n’abahungu biwe batatu, n’inzu yiwe yose ipfana.

Abisirayeli bari mu kibaya babonye ko ingabo zahunze, be n’uko Sauli n’abahungu biwe bapfuye, basiga ibisagara vyabo, barahunga. Nuko Abafilisitiya baraza, babibamwo.

Bukeye, Abafilisitiya baraza kwambika ibisebe vya bapfuye, maze basanga Sauli n’abahungu biwe baguye ku musozi Gilubowa. Baramwambura, batwara umutwe wiwe n’ibirwanisho vyiwe, barungika intumwa mu gihugu cose c’Abafilisitiya kugira ngo bibimenyeshe ibigirwamana vyabo be n’abantu. Bashira ibirwanisho vyiwe mu ngoro y’imana zabo, umutwe wiwe bawumanika mu ngoro ya Dagoni.

Mugabo abantu bose b’i Yabeshi-gileyadi bumvise ivyo vyose Abafilisitiya bagiriye Sauli, abagabo babo b’intwari bose baragenda, batwara umubiri wa Sauli n’imibiri y’abahungu biwe, bayizana i Yabeshi, baziriza amagufa yabo musi y’igiti c’umweru i Yabeshi, maze basiba iminsi indwi.

Nuko Sauli yapfiriye ukutizigirwa kwiwe kuri Data wa twese—ntiyagumije ijambo rya Data wa twese, kandi arabaza umuntu avumbuka kugira ngo amuyobore. Ntiyarondeye Data wa twese, ni co gituma Data wa twese yamwishe, maze ahereza ubwami kuri Dawidi mwene Yesi.
