USawuli nendlela yakhe yokubusa
1USawuli wasebusa phezu kukaIsrayeli umnyaka owodwa.
2USawule wazikhethela amadoda ayizinkulungwane ezintathu kwa-Israyeli; izinkulungwane ezimbili zazo zazinoSawule eMigimasi nasentabeni yaseBethele, nenkulungwane inoJonathani eGibeya lakwaBenjamini; abanye abantu wabamukisa, kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe.
3UJonathani wachitha ikampu yamaFilisti eyayiseGeba; amaFilisti ezwa ngakho. USawule wabetha icilongo ezweni lonke, wathi: “Makezwe amaHeberu;
4Wonke u-Israyeli wezwa ukuthi uSawule uchithe ikampu yamaFilisti nokuthi u-Israyeli unengeka kumaFilisti. Abantu babizelwa ndawonye ukuba bamlandele uSawule eGiligali.
5AmaFilisti abuthana ukulwa no-Israyeli: izinqola eziyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu nabamahhashi abayizinkulungwane eziyisithupha namadoda angangesihlabathi esisogwini lolwandle ngobuningi; benyuka bamisa inkamba eMigimasi ngasempumalanga kwaseBeti Aveni.
6Lapho abantu bakwa-Israyeli bebona ukuthi baswele (ngokuba abantu babecindezelekile), abantu bacasha emihumeni nasemahlozini nasemadwaleni naseziqongweni nasemigodini.
7Amanye amaHeberu awela iJordani, aya ezweni lakwaGadi nelakwaGileyadi. Kepha uSawule wayeseseGiligali, bonke abantu bamlandela bethuthumela.
8Wahlala izinsuku eziyisikhombisa njengesikhathi esinqunyiweyo uSamuweli; kepha uSamuweli akafikanga eGiligali; abantu basebehlakazeka besuka kuye.
9USawuli wasesithi: Ngilethele lapha umnikelo wokutshiswa leminikelo yokubonga. Wanikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa.
10Kwathi nje lapho eqeda ukunikela ngomnikelo wokushiswa, bheka, uSamuweli wafika; uSawule waphuma ukumhlangabeza ukumbingelela.
11USamuweli wasesithi: Wenzeni? USawule wayesethi: “Ngokuba ngibonile ukuthi abantu bahlakazekile kimi, nokuthi anifikanga ngezinsuku ezimisiweyo, nokuthi amaFilisti abuthana eMigimasi;
12Ngase ngithi: “AmaFilisti aseyakungifikela eGiligali, kepha angimncenganga uJehova;
13USamuweli wayesethi kuSawule: “Wenze ngobuwula; awuwugcinanga umyalo kaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akuyala ngawo; ngoba manje uJehova ubezakuqinisa ubukhosi bakho phezu kukaIsrayeli kuze kube nininini.
14Kepha manje umbuso wakho awuyikuba khona; uJehova wazifunela indoda ethandwa yinhliziyo yakhe; uJehova wamyala ukuba abe ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bakhe, ngokuba awugcinanga lokho uJehova akuyala ngakho.
15USamuweli wasuka, wakhuphuka eGiligali, waya eGibeya lakwaBenjamini. USawule wabala amadoda ayenaye kungathi amadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha.
16OSawule noJonathani indodana yakhe namadoda ayenabo bahlala eGibeya lakwaBenjamini, kepha amaFilisti amisa eMigimasi.
17Abachithi baphuma ekamu lamaFilisti ngezigaba ezintathu; elinye iviyo labheka endleleni eya e-Ofira ezweni laseSuwali.
18Esinye isixuku saphambukela endleleni yaseBeti Horoni, esinye isixuku saphambukela endleleni yasemngceleni obheke esigodini saseSeboyimi ehlane.
19Kwakungekho mkhandi ezweni lonke lakwa-Israyeli, ngokuba amaFilisti athi: “AmaHeberu angazizenzele izinkemba nemikhonto.”
20Kodwa wonke u-Israyeli wehlela kumaFilisti ukuze, kube yilowo nalowo alole ingxenye yakhe, nemicibisholo yakhe, nezembe lakhe, nodondolo lwakhe.
21Kodwa babenefayili yezinti nezinkemba nezimfoloko nezimbazo nelokulola izinti.
22Ngosuku lokulwa kwakungekho nkemba namkhonto esandleni sanoma yimuphi wabantu ababenoSawule noJonathani; kepha kwakunoSawule noJonathani indodana yakhe.
23Ibutho lamaFilisti laphuma laya esihogweni saseMigimasi.
