Soni jwalakwe jwaliji yimpepe ni ŵandu chiŵandika 600. 3 (Ahiya ni juŵanyakulaga efodi. Jwalakweju jwaliji mwanache jwa Ahitubi. Ahitubi jwaliji mlongomjakwe jwa Ikabodi, Ikabodi jwaliji mwanache jwa Pinihasi, soni Pinihasi jwaliji mwanache jwa Eli juŵaliji jwakutaga mbopesi jwa Yehofa ku Silo.) Nambo ŵandu nganamanyilila yakuti Yonatani atyosile. 4 Sambano pampata waŵapitaga Yonatani kuti akayiche kujaliji gulu ja asilikali ŵa Afilisiti kula, mbali jineji kwapali liganga lyakuwoneka mpela lino nambosoni mbali jineji kwapali liganga linesoni lyakuwoneka mpela lino.

6 Kaneko Yonatani ŵamsalile mundu juŵanyakulilaga yida yangondo yakwe jula kuti, “Kwende tujombochele kwajili gulu ja asilikali ja achalume ŵangawumbalaŵa. Mwine Yehofa chatukamuchisye, pakuŵa pangali champaka chimlepelekasye Yehofa kwakulupusya ŵandu chinga kupitila mwa ŵandu ŵajinji kapena ŵamnono.” 7 Pelepo jwakunyakula yida yangondojo ŵamjanjile jwalakwe kuti, “Mtende yiliyose yawukusaka mtima wenu. Mjawule kulikose kwamkusaka soni une chinamkuye kulikose kwawusachile mtima wenu.” 8 Kaneko Yonatani jwatite, “Chitujombochele kwali achalumeŵa soni chitukalilosye kwa jemanjaji kuti m’weji tuyiche. 9 Naga jemanjajo chakatusalile kuti, ‘Mjime pamlipo tumsimane papopo!’ m’weji tukajime papopo soni tukaja kwawula kwali jemanjajo. 10 Nambo naga chakatusalile kuti, ‘Myiche akuno mlimbane ni m’weji!’ pelepo m’weji chitukajawule kukoko, ligongo Yehofa chakapeleche jemanjaji mmyala mwetu. Chelechi chichikaŵe chimanyisyo chetu.”
11 Kaneko jemanjaji ŵalilosisye kujaliji gulu ja mwana ja asilikali ŵa Afilisiti ŵala. Pelepo Afilisitiwo ŵatite, “Alole Ahebeli akukopokangana kumasimbo kwaŵajuŵile kula.” 12 Myoyo achalume ŵaŵaliji ku matenti ga asilikali ŵa Afilisitiwo ŵamsalile Yonatani ni jwakumnyakulila yida yakwe yangondo kuti, “Myiche kwatuli m’weji kuno soni chitumlosye lyosi!” Pelepo Yonatani ŵamsalile jwakumnyakulila yida yakwe jula kuti, “Kwende munguye, pakuŵa Yehofa ŵapeleche jemanjajo mmyala mwa Ayisalayeli.” 13 Myoyo Yonatani ŵakwesile chakwaŵa pa malogo, soni jwakumnyakulila yida yakwe yangondo ŵamkuyaga panyuma pakwe. Kaneko Yonatani ŵatandite kwagomeka Afilisitiwo. Soni jwakunyakula yida yakwe yangondo juŵayikaga panyuma pakwe jwamalisyaga Afilisiti ŵaŵaliji mkanaŵe kuwa. 14 Ndaŵi jandanda jele Yonatani ni jwakumnyakulila yida yakwe jula ŵajimuchile Afilisiti, jemanjaji ŵawuleje ŵandu chiŵandika 20. Wosopeŵa ŵawulajile pamalo gele ulewu ŵakwe ŵaliji chiŵandika hafu ja ekala* ja mgunda.
15 Kaneko woga wakamwile mnope asilikali ŵaŵaliji ku matenti, soni gulu jine jamwana ja asilikali jijakunjile matenti gawo mbali jine, atamose magulu ga asilikali gagajawulaga kukwimuchila gala wakamwile woga. Chilambo chatandite kutenganyika soni Mlungu jwatendekasisye Afilisitiwo kuti akole woga mnope. 16 Alonda ŵa Sauli ŵa ku Gibeya ja ku Benjamini ŵaweni ŵanduwo ali mkubalalikangana ligongo lyakusokonechela nganisyo.
17 Pelepo Sauli ŵasalile ŵandu ŵaŵaliji ni jwalakwe kuti, “Mŵalanje ŵandu ŵatupali kuti tumanyilile naga pana ŵatyosile.” Jemanjajo paŵaŵalasile ŵanduwo ŵayiweni kuti Yonatani ni jwakumnyakulila yida yakwe yangondo jula pangalipo. 18 Kaneko Sauli ŵamsalile Ahiya kuti, “Myiche nalyo akuno Libokosi lya Mlungu jwakuwona!” (Pandaŵiji* Libokosi lya Mlungu jwakuwona lyaliji ni Ayisalayeli.) 19 Sauli paŵaliji mkuŵechetana ni jwakutaga mbopesi, kusokonechela kwa Afilisiti kula kwaliji mkutupilatupilape ku matenti gawo. Kaneko Sauli ŵamsalile jwakutaga mbopesijo kuti, “Mleche yamkutendayo.” 20 Pelepo Sauli pampepe ni ŵandu wosope ŵaŵaliji ni jwalakwejo ŵasongangene ni kwawula kuŵaliji Afilisitiwo kukuputa ngondo. Jemanjajo paŵayiche kweleko ŵasimene kuti Afilisitiwo asokonechele mnope mwamti ŵaliji mkuwulagana achimsyenepe ni maupanga.* 21 Nambosoni Ahebeli ŵele pandanda ŵaliji kumbali ja Afilisiti soni ŵele ŵapite ku matenti ga Afilisiti ni kutamaga nawo, ŵatandite kwawula kwa Ayisalayeli ŵele Sauli ni Yonatani ŵaliji mkwalongolela. 22 Kaneko achalume wosope ŵa ku Isalayeli ŵaŵajuŵile m’matumbi m’dela ja Efulayimu ŵapikene kuti Afilisiti atisile. Paŵapikene yeleyi nombenawo ŵakopweche mumbangamo ni kutanda kwatoposya Afilisitiwo. 23 Myoyo Yehofa ŵakulupwisye Ayisalayeli palisiku lyeleli, mwamti ngondojo jakusile mnope mpaka kuja kwika ku Beti-afeni.
24 Nambo palisiku lyeleli achalume ŵa ku Isalayeli ŵapesile mnope, ligongo Sauli ŵalumbilikasisye jemanjajo kuti, “Jwalijose jwachalye yakulya mkanikuŵe kuswa soni mkanimbe kwawuchisya adani ŵangu aŵe jwamlweseche.”* Myoyo pangali mundu jwalijose juŵalile yakulya palisiku lyelelyo.
25 Kaneko ŵandu wosopewo ŵayiche mungalango, soni jemanjajo ŵawusimene uchi uli ugwilile petaka. 26 Ŵanduwo paŵayiche mungalangomo ŵawuweni uchiwo uli mkudondela petakapo, nambo pangali mundu juŵatambasukwile mkono wakwe ni kupasya uchiwo. Ŵatesile yeleyi ligongo jemanjajo ŵajogopaga kukasa yaŵalumbilikasisye yila. 27 Nambo Yonatani nganiŵapikana babagwe paŵalumbilikasyaga ŵanduwo. Myoyo jwalakwe ŵatambasukwile mkono wakwe ali ajigele ndodo ni kutonya masyega* ni msonga ja ndodojo. Kaneko jwalakwe paŵapasisye uchiwo meso gakwe galangwiche. 28 Pelepo ŵanduwo ŵamsalile jwalakwe kuti, “Baba ŵenu ŵalumbilikasisye ŵanduŵa kutenda chindu chakusawusya mnope. Atite, ‘Mundu jwalijose jwakulya yakulya lelo chaŵe jwamlweseche!’* Mwamti ni ligongo lyakwe ŵanduŵa apesile mnope.” 29 Nambo Yonatani ŵajanjile kuti, “Baba ŵangu ŵatendekasisye ŵandu kuti alaje mnope. Alole mwagalanguchile meso gangu pangambile kupasya panandi uchiwu. 30 Yikalijitu chenene mnope yikaŵe kuti ŵanduŵa alile mwagopoka lelo yindu yasumwile kwa adani ŵawo. Akatende yeleyi nikuti Afilisiti ŵakuwulajidwa akaliji ŵajinji mnope kupunda pelepa.”
31 Palisiku lyelelyo jemanjajo ŵaliji mkwawulaga Afilisitiwo kutyochela ku Mikimasi mpaka ku Aijaloni mwamti ŵanduwo ŵayikene pakupela mnope. 32 Myoyo ŵanduwo ŵatandite kuwutuchila yindu yaŵasumwile Afilisitiwo mwakutunduka mwamti jemanjajo ŵajigele ngondolo, ng’ombe soni ŵanache ŵa ng’ombesyo ni ŵayiwuleje soni ŵalyaga nyamajo pampepe ni myasi jakwe. 33 Kaneko ŵandu ŵamsalile Sauli kuti, “Ŵandu akumlemwechesya Yehofa. Jemanjajo akulya nyama pampepe ni myasi jakwe.” Pelepo jwalakwe ŵasalile ŵanduwo kuti, “Mtesile yindu yakulosya kuti nganimkola chikulupi. Mgudubusye liganga lyekulungwa sampano kuti liyiche kwandili une kuno.” 34 Sauli ŵaŵechetesoni kuti, “Mjawule kosope kwali ŵandu ni mkasalile jemanjajo kuti, ‘Jwalijose ayiche ni ng’ombe soni ngondolo jakwe ni ajiwulajile paligangali soni alye nyama jakwe. Ngamkusosekwa kulya nyama pampepe ni myasi jakwe ni kumlemwechesya Yehofa.’” Chilo chelecho jwalijose jwayiche ni ng’ombe jakwe ni kujiwulajila paligangapo. 35 Myoyo Sauli ŵataŵile malo gakupelechela mbopesi kwa Yehofa, soni malo gakupelechela mbopesi gelega galiji gandanda gele jwalakwe ŵamtaŵile Yehofa.
36 Panyuma pakwe Sauli ŵasalile ŵanduwo kuti, “Kwende twajawulile Afilisiti chilochi ni kuja kwajonanga wosope mpaka kundaŵi, soni pangali mundu jwatukamleche ni umi.” Pelepo ŵanduwo ŵamjanjile jwalakwe kuti, “Atende yiliyose yakuyiwona kuŵa yambone.” Kaneko jwambopesi jula ŵatite, “Kwende tumwusye kaje Mlungu jwakuwona pamalo agano.” 37 Pelepo Sauli ŵamwusisye Mlungu kuti, “Ana najawulile Afilisiti? Ana chiŵapeleche jemanjaji mmyala mwa Ayisalayeli?” Nambo Mlungu nganamjanga jwalakwejo palisiku lyelelyo. 38 Myoyo Sauli ŵasalile ŵandu kuti, “Myiche akuno jemanja wosope ŵamkwalongolela ŵandu, soni mwungunye naga pana mundu jwalijose jwatesile chakulemwa. 39 Nditu ngulumbila pameso pa Yehofa Mlungu jwaumi, Mlungu juŵakulupwisye Ayisalayeli kuti atamose mundu jwatesile chakulemwacho aŵe mwanache jwangu Yonatani, nditu akusosekwa kuwa.” Nambo pangali atamose mundu jumo juŵamjanjile jwalakwejo. 40 Kaneko Sauli ŵasalile Ayisalayeli wosopewo kuti, “Jemanja wosope chimjime kumbali jimo, soni une ni mwanache jwangu Yonatani chitujimesoni kumbali jineji.” Pelepo ŵanduwo ŵamjanjile Saulijo kuti, “Atende yiliyose yakuyiwona kuŵa yambone.”
41 Kaneko Sauli ŵamsalile Yehofa kuti, “Ambuje ŵetu Mlungu jwa Ayisalayeli, chonde atujanje kupitila mu Tumimu.” Kaneko Yonatani ni Sauli ni ŵaŵasimanikwe kuti ali ŵakulemwa. Mwamti ŵane wosopewo ŵasimanikwe kuti ali ŵangalemwa. 42 Pelepo Sauli ŵatite, “Kwende tutende kalotalota* kuti tulole jwali jwakulemwa pasikati pa une ni mwanangu Yonatani.” Pambesi pakwe Yonatani ni juŵasimanikwe kuti ali jwakulemwa. 43 Kaneko Sauli ŵamwusisye Yonatani kuti, “Musalile, ana mtesile chichi?” Pelepo Yonatani ŵajanjile kuti, “Unetu nagambile kupasya uchi panandi wawaliji kusonga kwa ndodo jajaliji mmyala mwangu. Sambanotu ngoseche kwende ambulaje.”
44 Ni Sauli ŵamsalile jwalakwejo kuti, “Mlungu ambe chilango* chekulungwa naga mmwejo Yonatani ngam’wa lelo.” 45 Nambo ŵanduwo ŵamwusisye Sauli kuti, “Ana yili yakuŵajilwa kuti Yonatani awe, mundu jwele atendekasye kuti Ayisalayeli apunde pa ngondoji? Yeleyitu yili yangakomboleka. Nditu tukulumbila pameso pa Yehofa Mlungu jwaumi, kuti atamose luwumbo lumpepe lwa mumtwe mwakwe ngalukusosekwa kugwila pasi, pakuŵa Mlungu ni jwamkamuchisye jwalakwe lelo kuti atende yeleyi.” Ni maloŵe gelega ŵanduwo ŵamkulupwisye Yonatani mwamti nganawa.
46 Myoyo Sauli ŵalesile kwatoposya Afilisitiwo, mwamti Afilisitiwo ŵawujile ku dela jawo.
47 Sauli ŵawuchenjele uchimwene wa Ayisalayeli soni ŵamenyene ni adani ŵakwe wosope ŵaŵasyungulile. Jwalakwe ŵamenyene ni Amowabu, Aamoni, Aedomu, mamwenye ga ku Soba soni Afilisiti. Nambosoni ndaŵi jilijose jaŵajawulaga kukuputa ngondo jwalakwe ŵaliji mkwagomeka jemanjaji. 48 Sonitu jwalakwe ŵamenyene mwakulimba mtima ni kwagomeka Aamaleki soni kwakulupusya Ayisalayeli mmyala mwa ŵandu ŵaŵaliji mkwalagasya.
49 Ŵanache ŵachalume ŵa Sauli ŵaliji Yonatani, Isifi soni Maliki-suwa. Jwakwetesoni ŵanache ŵaŵili ŵachakongwe. Mwa ŵanache ŵachakongweŵa jwamkulungwa lina lyakwe lyaliji Melabu, soni jwamnandi lina lyakwe lyaliji Mikala. 50 Lina lya ŵamkwakwe Sauli lyaliji Ahinowamu. Jwalakwe jwaliji mwanache jwamkongwe jwa Ahimasi. Soni lina lya jwamkulungwa jwa gulu ja asilikali ja Sauli lyaliji Abineli mwanache jwa Neli. Neli jwaliji mlongo mjakwe jwa babagwe ŵa Sauli. 51 Kisi ŵaliji babagwe Sauli soni Neli juŵaliji babagwe ŵa Abineli ŵaliji mwanache jwa Abiyele.
52 Mundaŵi josope jiŵalamulilaga Sauli, Ayisalayeli ŵamenyanaga ngondo syakogoya mnope ni Afilisiti. Sauli pagambile kumwona mundu jwamachili soni jwakulimba mtima ŵamjigalaga kuti aŵe mu gulu jakwe ja asilikali.
