26 ¹Anthu a ku Zifi aenda kuna Sauli ku Gibeya, mbalonga kuti: “Kodi Dhavidhi nkhabe kubisala pa phiri ya Hakila, yakuyang'ana Yeximoni?” ²Na tenepo Sauli atcita ku thando ya Zifi na amuna cikwi zitatu akusankhulwa a ku Izarayeli, toera kusaka Dhavidhi kweneko. ³Sauli amanga nsasa pa phiri ya Hakila, yakuyang'ana Yeximoni, pa khundu ya njira, mbwenye Dhavidhi akhakhala n'thando. Dhavidhi aona kuti Sauli antowera n'thando, ⁴iye atuma anyakuonesesa, mbadziwa kuti Sauli afika ndimomwene. ⁵Na tenepo Dhavidhi aenda ku mbuto idamanga Sauli nsasa, mbaona mbuto idagona Sauli pabodzi na Abhineri mwana wa Neri, nkulu wa anyankhondo ace. Sauli akhagona n'kati mwa nsasa, anyankhondo mban'zungulira. ⁶Dhavidhi abvundza Ahimeleki Muhiti na Abhisai mwana wa Zeruya, m'bale wa Yoabi, kuti: “Mbani anatcita na ine ku nsasa wa Sauli?” Abhisai atawira: “Ine ndinatcita na iwe.”

⁷Dhavidhi na Abhisai afika kuna anyankhondo namasiku. Sauli akhagona kugona n'kati mwa nsasa, mkondo wace wakuwomberwa pantsi pa khundu ya nsolo wace, Abhineri na anyankhondo mbazungulira iye. ⁸Abhisai apanga Dhavidhi: “Baba wathu apereka nyamalwa wako m'manja mwako lero. Natenepa ndileke ndimuwombe pantsi na mkondo kabodzi kene—nkhabe kufunika kumuwomba kaciwiri.”

⁹Mbwenye Dhavidhi apanga Abhisai: “Leka kumupha! Mbani anakwanisa kukweza djanja toera kumenya nyakudzodzwa wa Baba wathu, mbakhala wakusowa mulando?” ¹⁰Dhavidhi alonga: “Ninga Baba wathu muli maso, Baba wathu anamuwomba, peno ntsiku yace inafika mbafa, peno iye anaenda ku nkhondo mbafudzwa. ¹¹Nee pang'ono, pamaso pa Baba wathu, kukweza djanja yanga toera kumenya nyakudzodzwa wa Baba wathu. Cincino kwata mkondo uli pa nsolo pace, na mbiya ya madzi, mbatiende.”

¹²Dhavidhi akwata mkondo na mbiya ya madzi pa khundu ya nsolo wa Sauli; mbaenda. Nkhabe munthu adaaona, nkhabe munthu adadziwa, nkhabe munthu adalamuka, thangwi citulo cikulu cakubva kuna Baba wathu cikhadagwa pa iwo onsene.

¹³Na tenepo Dhavidhi awambuka, mbaima pa nsolo pa phiri yakutali, mpata ukulu mbukhala pakati pawo. ¹⁴Iye acemera anyankhondo na Abhineri mwana wa Neri, mbalonga kuti: “Kodi nkhabe kutawira, iwe Abhineri?” Abhineri atawira: “Ndiwe ani, iwe anacemera mambo?”

¹⁵Dhavidhi apanga Abhineri: “Kodi iwe si mamuna tayu? Mbani ninga iwe mu Izarayeli? Thangwi yanji ukhonda kutsidzikiza mbuya wako mambo? Munthu afika toera kupha mambo, mbuya wako. ¹⁶Iwe wacita pyakuipa. Ninga Baba wathu muli maso, imwe monsene musafunika kufa thangwi yakukhonda kutsidzikiza mbuya wanu, nyakudzodzwa wa Baba wathu. Cincino yang'ana—mkondo wa mambo na mbiya ya madzi pikhali pa nsolo pace piri kupi?”

¹⁷Sauli adzindikira fala ya Dhavidhi, mbalonga kuti: “Kodi fala yako ndi iyi, mwananga Dhavidhi?” Dhavidhi atawira: “Ndi fala yanga, mbuya wanga mambo.”

¹⁸Iye alonga: “Thangwi yanji mbuya wanga asathamangisa ntumiki wace? Ndacitanji, mulando wanji uli m'manja mwanga? ¹⁹Mbuya wanga mambo mbabve mafala a ntumiki wace: Baba wathu angakakamiza imwe kuti mundilimbane, iye mbatambire ntsembe; mbwenye khala ndi anthu adacita pyenepi, iwo mbaphungwe pamaso pace—thangwi lero andithamangisa pa mbuto yanga ya unthaka wace, mbalonga kuti, ‘Ndoko, kalambire milungu inango.’ ²⁰Lekani kutawirisa kuti ciropa canga cigwe pantsi, kutali na pamaso pa Baba wathu—mambo wa Izarayeli abuluka toera kusaka nthata ibodzi, ninga munthu anathamangisa nkhwali m'mapiri.”

²¹Sauli alonga: “Ndadawa. Bwerera, Dhavidhi mwananga. Nee ndinakuphekesa pontho, thangwi umaso wanga ukhali wakufunika pamaso pako lero. Ndacita upswiru, mbandiphonya kakamwe.”

²²Dhavidhi atawira: “Mkondo wa mambo uyu pano. Mphale m'bodzi mbabwere kudzaukwata. ²³Baba wathu asalipa munthu m'bodzi na m'bodzi mwakubverana na kulungama kwace na kukhulupirika kwace. Lero iye akuperekani m'manja mwanga, mbwenye ine nee ndafuna kukweza djanja yanga toera kumenya nyakudzodzwa wace. ²⁴Ninga ine mwandaona umaso wanu ninga wakufunika kakamwe lero, Baba wathu mbaone umaso wanga ninga wakufunika kakamwe, mbandipulumusa ku nyatwa zonsene.”

²⁵Sauli apanga Dhavidhi: “Wakusimbwa ndiwe, mwananga Dhavidhi—iwe unacita pinthu pikulu, mbakunda ndimomwene.” Dhavidhi aenda njira yace; Sauli abwerera kunyumba.
