1 Samuweli 11

¹Wayesekhuphuka uNahashi, umAmoni, wamisa malungana neJabeshi kwaGileyadi; onke amadoda aseJabeshi athi kuNahashi: Yenza isivumelwano nathi, sikukhonze.

²UNahashi wakwa-Amoni waphendula wathi kubo: “Ngalokho ngiyakwenza isivumelwano nani, ukuze ngikhiphe wonke amehlo enu okunene, ngiwabeke phezu kuka-Israyeli wonke abe yihlazo.

³Amalunga aseJabeshi athi kuye: “Siyeke izinsuku eziyisikhombisa, sithume izithunywa emikhawulweni yonke yakwa-Israyeli; khona-ke, uma kungekho osikhululayo, siyakuphumela kuwe.

⁴Izithunywa zafika eGibeya likaSawule, zamemezela lezi zindaba ezindlebeni zabantu, futhi bonke abantu baphakamisa amazwi abo bakhala inyembezi.

⁵Bheka, uSawule waphuma endle elandela izinkomo; USawuli wasesithi: Kuyini abantu ukuthi bakhale? Bamtshela izindaba zamadoda aseJabeshi.

⁶UMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kukaSawule lapho ezwa lezi zindaba, intukuthelo yakhe yavutha kakhulu.

⁷Wathatha izinkabi, wazihlahlela, wazithuma ngesandla sezithunywa kuwo wonke umkhawulo wakwa-Israyeli, wathi: “Ongaphumi ukulandela uSawule noSamuweli, kuyakwenziwa kanjalo kuzo izinkabi zakhe.” Ukwesaba uJehova kwehlela phezu kwabantu, baphuma nganhliziyonye.

⁸Wababala eBezeki, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babe yizinkulungwane ezingamakhulu amathathu, namadoda akwaJuda ayeyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amathathu.

⁹Basebesithi kuzo izithunywa ezafikayo: Lizakutsho njalo emadodeni eJabeshi eGileyadi: Kusasa ekutshiseni kwelanga lizaba losizo. Zafika izithunywa, zabatshela amadoda aseJabeshi; futhi bajabula.

¹⁰Ngakho abantu baseJabeshi bathi: “Kusasa siyakuphumela kini, nenze kithi konke okuhle emehlweni enu.”

¹¹Kwathi ngangomuso uSawule wabahlukanisa abantu baba izingxenye ezintathu; bangena phakathi kwempi ngomlindo wokusa, babulala ama-Amoni kwaze kwashisa ilanga.

¹²Abantu bathi kuSamuweli: “Ngubani owathi: ‘USawule uyakubusa phezu kwethu na? lethani amadoda, ukuze siwabulale.

¹³USawuli wasesithi: Kakungabulawa muntu lamuhla, ngoba lamuhla iN kosi iyenzele uIsrayeli insindiso.

¹⁴USamuweli wasesithi ebantwini: Wozani siye eGiligali, sivuse umbuso khona.

¹⁵Bonke abantu baya eGiligali; bambeka khona uSawule inkosi eGiligali phambi kukaJehova; banikela khona imihlatshelo yokubonga phambi kukaJehova; uSawule nawo wonke amadoda akwa-Israyeli bajabula kakhulu lapho.
