14 Ke ngoku ubukumkani bakho abuyi kuhlala.+ Ngokuqinisekileyo uYehova uya kuzifumanela indoda evunyiweyo yintliziyo yakhe;+ yaye uYehova uya kuyimisela ibe yinkokeli+ phezu kwabantu bakhe, ngenxa yokuba akukugcinanga oko uYehova akuyalele kona.”+

28 Wathi ke uSamuweli kuye: “UYehova ulukrazule+ kuwe namhlanje ulawulo lwasebukhosini lukaSirayeli, yaye ngokuqinisekileyo uya kulunika idlelane lakho elilunge ngakumbi kunawe.+

8 Waza uSawule wanomsindo kakhulu,+ neli lizwi laba libi ngokwembono yakhe, ngokokuze athi: “Banike uDavide amashumi amawaka, kodwa mna bandinike amawaka, sekusele nje kuphela ukuba bamnike ubukumkani!”+

31 Kuba yonke imihla unyana kaYese ephila kulo mhlaba, akuyi kumiselwa ngokuqinileyo wena nobukumkani bakho.+ Ke ngoko thumela uze umzise kum, kuba umiselwe ukufa.”+

17 Wahlabela mgama wathi kuye: “Musa ukoyika;+ kuba isandla sikaSawule ubawo asiyi kukufumana, yaye wena kanye uya kuba ngukumkani+ phezu koSirayeli, mna ke ndiya kuba ngowesibini kuwe; noSawule ubawo uyakwazi oko.”+
