7 Dipa yace ikhali ikulu kakamwe,+ khundu ya utale ya dipa yace ikhalemera masiklo 600;* pontho nyakunʼthukulira xango akhaenda kutsogolo kwace.

9 Nyantsembe atawira: “Pano pana supada ya Goliyati,+ Nfilisti adapha iwe ku Gowa ya Elaa,+ supada ineyi yapyangirirwa na nguwo kuntsi kwa efodhi.+ Ungafuna, ikwate thangwi ndi supada ineyi basi iri pano.” Dhavidhi alonga: “Ndipaseni, thangwi nkhabe supada inango yakulandana na ineyi.”
