14 Kweni sonu ufumu waku ukhongi cha.+ Yehova wasaniyengi munthu wakukoliyana ndi mtima waki,+ ndipu Yehova wamuŵikengi kuti waje mulongozgi wa ŵanthu ŵaki,+ chifukwa yiwi wavwiya cha vo Yehova wangukulamula.”+

27 Samuyeli waching’anamuka kuti wakengi, Sauli wanguko salu ya mumphata mwa mkhanju waki wapanthuwa, ndipu yingukeruka. 28 Ivi vati vachitika, Samuyeli wangukamba kuti: “Yehova wakeruwa ndi kutuzgaku ufumu wa Ayisirayeli kwaku yiwi, ndipu wawuperekengi ku munyaku, yo ngwamampha kuluska yiwi.”+

16 Pakumaliya paki, Yehova wangukambiya Samuyeli kuti: “Kumbi uliriyengi Sauli mpaka zuŵanji,+ pakuti ini ndamukana kuti waje fumu ya ku Isirayeli?+ Zaza sengwi laku ndi mafuta+ ndipu luta. Ndikutumengi kwaku Jese+ wa ku Betelehemu, chifukwa ndajisankhiya fumu kutuliya pa ŵana ŵaki.”+

13 Sonu Samuyeli wanguto sengwi la mafuta+ ndipu wangupunguliya Davidi aku ŵaki achiwona. Kwamba pa zuŵa lenili mpaka munthazi, mzimu waku Yehova ungwamba kugwira ntchitu paku Davidi.+ Pavuli paki Samuyeli wangusoka ndi kuwere ku Rama.+

17 Ndichitiskengi kuti nthazi zaku Davidi zikuwi* kwenuku.

Wakusankhika wangu ndamunozge nyali.+

22 Chiuta wati watuzgapu Sauli, wangusankha Davidi kuti waje fumu,+ mweniyo wangumuchitiya ukaboni kuti: ‘Ndasaniya Davidi mwana waku Jese,+ munthu wakukoliyana ndi mtima wangu+ ndipu wazamuchita vosi vo ndikhumba.’
