17 ¹Abafilisitiya baragwanya ingabo zabo ngo baje mu rugamba, baterera i Soko mu Buyuda, maze baramba inkambi i Efesi-Damimu, hagati ya Soko na Azeka. ²Sauli n’abagabo ba Isirayeli baraterera, baramba inkambi mu Kiyaya ca Ela, maze bateganya ingabo zabo zo kurwana zihanganye n’Abafilisitiya. ³Abafilisitiya bari bahagaze ku musozi umwe, na Isirayeli ku wundi musozi uhanganye na wo, ikiyaya kiri hagati yabo. ⁴Umugabo w’intwari yitwa Goliyati w’i Gati araheza aserukira mu nkambi y’Abafilisitiya, atumbereye ametero hafi atanu. ⁵Ku mutwe yari yambaye ingofero y’umuringa, yari yambaye n’ibisandasanda vy’imbaho z’umuringa biremereye nk’ibiro mirongo itandatu. ⁶Yari yambaye udushishwa tw’umuringa ku magerere, hamwe n’icumu ry’umuringa ryamanitse hagati y’amabega yiwe. ⁷Umuhini w’icumu ryiwe wari ungana n’igiti c’abazana impuzu, umutwe waco w’icuma uremereye nk’ibiro indwi. Uwamuheka inkinzo yagenda imbere yiwe. ⁸Arahagarara, atakira ingabo za Isirayeli ati: “Ni kuki muserutse kugira muteganye ingabo mu rugamba? Jewe si Umufilisitiya, namwe ntimuri abasavyi ba Sauli? Nimuhitemwo umugabo amanuke aze kuri jewe. ⁹Niyashobora kurwana ananyice, tuzoba abasavyi banyu; ariko nindamunesha nkamwica, muzoba abasavyi bacu mudusavye.” ¹⁰Nuko Umufilisitiya aravuga ati: “Uyu musi ndasuzuguye ingabo za Isirayeli! Nimumpe umugabo turwane.”

¹¹Sauli na Isirayeli yose bumvise amajambo y’Umufilisitiya, baratengwa bagira n’ubwoba bwinshi.

¹²Dawidi yari umwana wa Yese, Umwefurati w’i Betelehemu mu Buyuda, uwari ufise abahungu umunani. Mu misi ya Sauli, Yese yari ashaje, ageze mu zabukuru. ¹³Abahungu batatu ba Yese b’imfura bari bakurikiye Sauli mu rugamba: Eliyabu imfura, Abinadabu uwa kabiri, na Shama uwa gatatu. ¹⁴Dawidi ni we yari muto. Batatu b’imfura bari bakurikiye Sauli, ¹⁵ariko Dawidi yaza akagaruka ava kuri Sauli ngo araganire intama za se i Betelehemu.

¹⁶Imisi mirongo ine yose Umufilisitiya yaserukira buri musi mu gitondo no ku mugoroba, akaguma ahagaze.

¹⁷Yese abwira umwana wiwe Dawidi ati: “Jana kuri benewanyu iyi mpeke y’intete zokeje n’iyi migati cumi, ubihekere ningoga benewanyu bari mu nkambi. ¹⁸Jana n’aya mahuta cumi kw’ikofero y’igisata cabo. Urabe uko benewanyu bameze, maze unzanire inkuru zabo. ¹⁹Sauli, benewanyu, n’abagabo bose ba Isirayeli bari mu Kiyaya ca Ela, barwana n’Abafilisitiya.”

²⁰Mu gitondo kare Dawidi arasiga ubusho ku mwungere, apakira, maze aragenda nk’uko Yese yari yamutegetse. Ashika ku nkambi mu gihe ingabo zariko zija ku murongo w’urugamba, zitakira induru y’intambara. ²¹Isirayeli n’Abafilisitiya bateganya ingabo zabo zihanganye. ²²Dawidi arasiga impeke ziwe ku mwungere w’impeke, aca aniruka aja ku murongo w’urugamba, maze aramutsa benewabo. ²³Mu gihe yariko araganira na bo, Goliyati Umufilisitiya w’intwari w’i Gati aserukira mu ngabo z’Abafilisitiya, atakira isomo ryiwe nk’uko yama agira, maze Dawidi aribwumva. ²⁴Abagabo ba Isirayeli babonye uwo mugabo, bose baramuhunga bagira ubwoba bwinshi. ²⁵Abagabo ba Isirayeli bavuga bati: “Urabona uyu mugabo aguma aserukana? Araduga ngo asuzugure Isirayeli. Umwami azoha ubutunzi bwinshi uwuzomwica, amuhe n’umukobwa wiwe, kandi umuryango wa se awugire usanzwe mu Isirayeli.”

²⁶Dawidi abaza abagabo bari iruhande yiwe ati: “Azoronka iki uwuzokwica uyu Mufilisitiya akure iceyi kuri Isirayeli? Kuko uyu Mufilisitiya atagenyerewe ni nde, ngo asuzugure ingabo za Data wa twese ariho?”

²⁷Abantu baramusubiriza ivyokorerwa umugabo azomwica.

²⁸Eliyabu, mukuru wa Dawidi, yumvise Dawidi araganira n’abagabo, aramwaka shavu. Ati: “Ni kuki waje hano? Izo ntama nkeyi zo mu bugaragwa wazisiganye na nde? Ndazi ubwishime bwawe n’umutima wawe mubi, waje gusa kugira ngo urabe urugamba.”

²⁹Dawidi ati: “Ubu se nakoze iki? Vyari ikibazo gusa.” ³⁰Ahindukirira uwundi amubaza nya kibazo, maze abantu baramwishura nk’uko babikoze imbere. ³¹Amajambo ya Dawidi arumvikana, araheza amenyeshwa Sauli, uwamutumako. ³²Dawidi abwira Sauli ati: “Umutima w’umuntu ntucike intege kubera we. Umusavyi wawe azoja kurwana n’uyu Mufilisitiya.”

³³Sauli ati: “Ntushobora kurwana n’uyu Mufilisitiya. Uracari umwana muto, na we ni intwari kuva mu busore bwiwe.”

³⁴Dawidi abwira Sauli ati: “Umusavyi wawe yaragira intama za se. Igihe intambwe canke idubu yaje ikajana intama ya zo mu busho, ³⁵narayikurikiye, ndayikubita, maze nkiza intama mu kanwa kayo. Iyo ihindukira ingwanya, nayifata ku bwoya, ndayikubita, ndayica. ³⁶Umusavyi wawe yarishe intambwe n’idubu uko ari kubiri; uyu Mufilisitiya atagenyerewe azoba nk’imwe muri zo, kuko yasuzuguye ingabo za Data wa twese ariho.” ³⁷Dawidi yongerako ati: “Data wa twese, we yankijije ikiganza c’intambwe n’ic’idubu, azonkiza ikiganza c’uyu Mufilisitiya.” Sauli ati: “Genda, Data wa twese abane nawe.”

³⁸Nuko Sauli yambika Dawidi ibirwanisho vyiwe bwite. Amushira ingofero y’umuringa ku mutwe, maze amwambika n’icambarwa c’ibirwanisho. ³⁹Dawidi arakenyeza inkota hejuru y’ibirwanisho, agerageza kugenda, ariko nta kuvyo yari amenyereye. Abwira Sauli ati: “Sinshobora kugenda muri ivyo, kuko ntabimenyereye.” Nuko araheza arabikuramwo.

⁴⁰Afata inkoni yiwe, atora amabuye atanu asize kw’isoko ry’uruzi, ayashira mu mufuko w’indwaro yiwe y’ubungere, maze afise urugunda mu kuboko aja kuri wa Mufilisitiya. ⁴¹Muri ico gihe wa Mufilisitiya, afise uwamuheka inkinzo imbere yiwe, yaguma yegera Dawidi. ⁴²Umufilisitiya araheza arasuzuma Dawidi, abona ko ari umwana muto gusa, atukura kandi mwiza, maze aramusuzugura. ⁴³Abwira Dawidi ati: “Jewe ndi imbwa, ngo uze kuri jewe ufise inkoni?” Umufilisitiya avuma Dawidi mu mazina y’imana ziwe. ⁴⁴Ati: “Ingo hano, nanje nzotanga umubiri wawe ku nyoni zo mu kirere n’ibikoko vyo mu gahinga.”

⁴⁵Dawidi abwira Umufilisitiya ati: “Wewe uzanye inkota, icumu n’ingabo, ariko jewe ndaje kuri wewe mw’izina rya Data wa twese w’ingabo zo mw’ijuru, Data w’ingabo za Isirayeli wasuzuguye. ⁴⁶Uyu musi Data wa twese azokutanga mu maboko yanje, nkugumangure nkugure n’umutwe. Uyu musi nyene nzotanga imivyimba y’ingabo z’Abafilisitiya ku nyoni zo mu kirere n’ibikoko vy’isi, maze isi yose izomenya ko hariho Data wa twese mu Isirayeli.

⁴⁷Bose bakoraniye hano bazomenya ko Data wa twese akiza atabigiranye inkota canke icumu; urugamba ni urwa Data wa twese, kandi azobatanga mwese mu maboko yacu.”

⁴⁸Wa Mufilisitiya ahagurukiye kumuteba, Dawidi aca aniruka ningoga aja ku murongo w’urugamba ngo amusanganire. ⁴⁹Dawidi ashira ukuboko mu mufuko wiwe, afata ibuye, araritera n’urugunda, maze akubita Umufilisitiya ku ruhanga. Ibuye rinyobokera mu ruhanga rwiwe, aca aratengagurika yubamye hasi. ⁵⁰Uko ni ko Dawidi yanesheje Umufilisitiya akoresheje urugunda n’ibuye; ata nkota afise mu kuboko, aramukubita aramwica. ⁵¹Dawidi aca aniruka arahagarara hejuru yiwe. Afata inkota y’Umufilisitiya, ayikura mu rwubati, maze aramwica, amukuza umutwe. Abafilisitiya babonye intwari yabo yapfuye, baca barahunga.

⁵²Nuko abagabo ba Isirayeli n’aba Buyuda barahaguruka batakira induru, bakurikira Abafilisitiya gushika ku ryinjiriro ry’i Gati no ku marembo y’i Ekuroni. Imivyimba y’Abafilisitiya yari isanzaye mu nzira ya Shaarayimu gushika i Gati n’i Ekuroni. ⁵³Abisirayeli bagarutse bavuye gukurikira Abafilisitiya, basahura inkambi yabo. ⁵⁴Dawidi afata umutwe w’Umufilisitiya awujana i Yeruzalemu, maze ibirwanisho vya Goliyati abishira mw’ihema ryiwe bwite. ⁵⁵Sauli abona Dawidi araserukira kuja gusanganira Umufilisitiya, abaza Abuneri, umukuru w’ingabo ziwe, ati: “Uyu musore ni umwana wa nde, Abuneri?” Abuneri aramwishura ati: “Nk’uko uriho, mwami wanje, sindabizi.”

⁵⁶Umwami ati: “Urondere kumenya uyu musore ko ari umwana wa nde.”

⁵⁷Dawidi agarutse avuye kwica Umufilisitiya, Abuneri aramutwara amuzana imbere ya Sauli, afise umutwe w’Umufilisitiya mu kuboko. ⁵⁸Sauli ati: “Wewe musore, uri umwana wa nde?” Dawidi ati: “Ndi umwana w’umusavyi wawe Yese w’i Betelehemu.”
