16 Ekugcineni uJehova wathi kuSamuweli: “Kuyoze kube nini ulilela uSawule,+ kuyilapho mina, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngimalile ukuba angabe esabusa njengenkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli?+ Gcwalisa uphondo lwakho ngamafutha+ uhambe. Ngizokuthuma kuJese+ waseBhetlehema, ngoba ngizilungiselele inkosi phakathi kwamadodana akhe.”+

39 Manje uZadoki umpristi wathatha uphondo lwamafutha+ etendeni+ wamgcoba+ uSolomoni; base belushaya uphondo, futhi bonke abantu baqhumuka bethi: “Mayiphile iNkosi uSolomoni!”+
