1 Samuweli 26

¹AbaseZifi beza kuSawule eGibeya, bathi: “UDavide akazicashi entabeni yaseHagila ephambi kukaJesimoni na?

²USawule wayeseqeda, wehlela ehlane laseZifi, kanye naye abantu abayizinkulungwane ezintathu abakhethiweyo bakwa-Israyeli ukumfuna uDavide ehlane laseZifi.

³USawuli wamisa inkamba entabeni yeHagila ephambi kweJesimoni ngasendleleni. Kepha uDavide wahlala ehlane, wabona ukuthi uSawule uyamlandela ehlane.

⁴UDavida wasethuma izinhloli, wezwa ukuthi uSawuli ufikile kuhle kakhulu.

⁵UDavide wayesesuka, waya endaweni uSawule ekanise kuyo; uDavide wayibona indawo lapho uSawule elele khona no-Abineri indodana kaNeri, induna yempi; uSawule wayelele emgodini, abantu bamisa nxazonke zakhe.

⁶UDavide waphendula, wathi ku-Ahimeleki umHeti, naku-Abishayi, indodana kaSeruya, umfowabo kaJowabe, wathi: “Ngubani oyakwehla nami kuSawule ekamu na?” Wathi u-Abishayi: “Ngiyakwehla nawe.”

⁷UDavide no-Abishayi bafika kubantu ebusuku, bheka, uSawule wayelele ubuthongo emgodini, nomkhonto wakhe ugxunyekwe emhlabathini ngasemgodleni wakhe, kepha u-Abineri namadoda belele nxazonke zakhe.

⁸U-Abishayi wayesethi kuDavide: “UNkulunkulu unikele isitha sakho esandleni sakho namuhla; mangimgwaze phansi ngomkhonto kanye nje, ngingaphinde ngimehlule okwesibili.

⁹UDavida wasesithi kuAbishayi: Ungambulali, ngoba ngubani ongelulela isandla sakhe kogcotshiweyo weNkosi, angabi lecala?

¹⁰UDavide wathi: “Kuphila kukaJehova, uJehova uyakumshaya; ukuthi usuku lwakhe lokufa luyafika yini; noma ehle empini abhubhe.

¹¹UJehova wangenqabela ukuba ngelulele isandla sami kogcotshiweyo kaJehova; kepha thatha umkhonto ongasemgodleni wakhe nesiphambano samanzi, sihambe.

¹²UDavide wathatha umkhonto nesiphambano samanzi emgodleni kaSawule; basuka, akwabona muntu, nokwaziyo, nokwavuka; ngoba bonke balala; ngoba ubuthongo obunzima bukaJehova behlela phezu kwabo.

¹³UDavide wayesewelela ngaphesheya, wema esiqongweni sentaba kude; isikhala esikhulu phakathi kwabo:

¹⁴UDavide wabiza abantu no-Abineri indodana kaNeri, wathi: “Awuphenduli yini, Abineri? UAbhineri wasephendula wathi: Ungubani wena obiza inkosi?

¹⁵UDavida wasesithi kuAbhineri: Kawusiyo yini indoda eliqhawe? ngubani onjengawe kwa-Israyeli na? Pho, awuyigcinanga ngani inkosi yakho inkosi na? ngoba kufike omunye wabantu ukuzochitha inkosi, inkosi yakho.

¹⁶Le nto oyenzile ayiyinhle. Kuphila kukaJehova, nifanele ukufa, ngokuba aniyigcinanga inkosi yenu, ogcotshiweyo kaJehova. Bheka manje ukuthi ukuphi umkhonto wenkosi nesiphambano samanzi esasinomgodla wayo.

¹⁷USawule walazi izwi likaDavide, wathi: “Yizwi lakho leli, ndodana yami Davide? UDavide wathi: “Nanti izwi lami, nkosi yami, nkosi;

¹⁸Wathi: “Inkosi yami ixoshelani inceku yayo kanje na?” ngenzeni noma buphi ububi obusesandleni sami?

¹⁹Manje inkosi yami, inkosi, mayizwe amazwi enceku yayo. Uma uJehova ekuvusile ngokumelene nami, makamukele umhlatshelo; kepha uma bengamadodana abantu, baqalekisiwe phambi kukaJehova; ngoba bangixotshile lamuhla ukuthi ngingahlali efeni le Nkosi, besithi: Hamba ukhonze abanye onkulunkulu.

²⁰Igazi lami malingaweli emhlabathini phambi kukaJehova, ngokuba inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yaphuma ukuyofuna intwazana, njengalapho umuntu ezingela intendele ezintabeni.

²¹USawuli wasesithi: Ngonile; buya, ndodana yami Davide, ngokuba angisayikukwenza okubi, ngokuba umphefumulo wami ubuyigugu emehlweni akho namuhla;

²²UDavide waphendula wathi: “Nanku umkhonto wenkosi; makusondele enye yezinsizwa izoyilanda.

²³UJehova uyabuyisela, kube yilowo nalowo ukulunga kwakhe nokuthembeka kwakhe, ngokuba uJehova ukunikele esandleni sami namuhla, kepha angithandanga ukwelulela isandla sami kogcotshiweyo kaJehova.

²⁴Bheka, njengoba nje umphefumulo wakho unqunyiwe emehlweni ami kuze kube namuhla, kanjalo umphefumulo wami mawuqine phambi kukaJehova, futhi makangisindise kuzo zonke izinhlupheko.

²⁵USawuli wasesithi kuDavida: Ubusisiwe wena, ndodana yami Davide; uzakwenza izinto ezinkulu njalo unqobe. UDavide wahamba, uSawule wabuyela endaweni yakhe.
