23 Mwilapanga balesa ba silfere ku kubalinganya kuli ine, kabili mwilapanga balesa ba golde.+

16 Kabili batendeke ukufumya balesa bambi bambi mu kati kabo+ no kubombela Yehova,+ ica kuti umweo+ wakwe watendeke ukulunguluka pa mulandu wa bwafya bwa bena Israele.+

3 E lyo Samwele asosele ku ba mu ng’anda ya kwa Israele bonse ati: “Nga mulebwelela kuli Yehova+ ne mitima yenu yonse, pooseni+ balesa bambi bambi na baAstarte+ abo muli nabo no kubika imitima yenu pali Yehova ukwabula ukunenuka kabili e o mulebombela eka fye,+ na o akamupokolola ku baPelishiti.”+

5 Pantu nangu kube abetwa “balesa,”+ mu muulu+ nangu pano isonde,+ ni fyo fine kwaba “balesa” abengi na “bashikulu” abengi,+
