1Matsatsing wona ao, Bafilesita ba kgobokanya mabotho a bona ho futuhela Baiseraele. Yaba Akishe o re ho Davida: “O hlo tsebe hantle hore wena le bahlabani ba hao le tla ya le nna ntweng.”
2Davida a re ho Akishe: “Ho lokile! O tla bona ntho eo mohlanka wa hao a tla e etsa!”
Akishe a re ho Davida: “Ke hantle; o tla ba molebedi wa ka kamehla.”
3Hoba Samuele a shwe, mme Baiseraele bohle ba mo llele, ba mo epela Rama, motseng wa habo. Saule o ne a ile a leleka dinohe le mathuela kahara naha.
Saule o ba tsietsing
4Bafilesita ba kgobokana, ba fihla ba hloma Shuneme. Saule le yena a kgobokanya Baiseraele bohle, mme a hloma Gileboa. 5Ha Saule a bona mabotho a Bafilesita a tshoha, mme matshwafo a hae a uba habohloko. 6Saule a botsa Morena, empa Morena a se ke a mo araba, leha e le ka ditoro, kapa ka lejwe la Urime, kapa ka baporofeta. 7Yaba Saule o re ho bahlanka ba hae: “Mpatleleng mosadi wa senohe, ke yo disetsa ho yena.”
Ba re ho yena: “Mane Ene-Dore mosadi ya jwalo o teng.”
Senohe sa Ene-Dore
8Saule a ikgakanya, a apara diaparo disele, a tsamaya le banna ba babedi, ba fihla ho mosadi eo bosiu. Saule a re ho mosadi eo: “Ke a o rapela: Ako ntshenolele tse tlang ho etsahala ka ho mpotsetsa ho badimo, o be o ntsosetse eo ke tla o bolella lebitso la hae.”
9Mosadi eo a re ho yena: “O tseba seo Saule a se entseng, le kamoo a lelekileng dinohe le mathuela kateng kahara naha ena. Ke ka lebaka lang ha o nketsetsa leraba, hore ke tle ke bolawe?”
10Empa Saule a hlapanyetsa mosadi eo ka Morena, a re: “Ka Morena ya phelang, taba ena e ke ke ya o tlisetsa kotlo.”
11Jwale mosadi eo a re: “Ke o tsosetse mang?”
Saule a re: “Ntsosetse Samuele.”
Samuele o a hlaha
12Hang ha mosadi a bona Samuele a howeletsa haholo, a re ho Saule: “O nthetseditseng? Ke wena Saule!”
13Yaba kgosi e re ho yena: “O se ke wa tshoha. O bonang?”
Mosadi a re ho Saule: “Ke bona ntho e kang sethotsela e ropoha fatshe.”
14Saule a re ho mosadi: “E sebopeho se jwang?”
Mosadi a re: “Ho ropoha monnamoholo ya apereng seaparo se selelele.”
Saule a tseba hore efela eo ke Samuele. A obamela fatshe ka sefahleho, ho isa hlompho.
Kahlolo ya Saule
15Samuele a re ho Saule: “Ke ka baka lang ha o nkgathaditse ka hore o ntsose?”
Saule a re: “Ke tsielehile haholo, hobane Bafilesita ba a ntwantsha, empa Modimo o mphuraletse. Ha a sa nkaraba, leha e le ka baporofeta kapa ka ditoro. Ke ka lebaka lena ke ileng ka o bitsa, hore o tlo mpolella seo ke tshwanetseng ho se etsa.”
16Yaba Samuele o re: “Ke ka baka lang ha o mpotsa ha e le moo Morena a o furaletse, a fetohile sera sa hao? 17Morena o o entse seo a neng a o bolelle sona pele, ka molomo wa ka. Morena o o amohile mmuso wa hao, o o neile e mong, e leng Davida, 18hobane ha o a ka wa mamela lentswe la Morena, mme ha o a ka wa phethahatsa kahlolo ya Morena ha a ne a halefetse Baamaleke. Ke ka lebaka lena Morena a o etseditseng ntho e tjena kajeno. 19Ho feta mona, Morena o tla neelana ka Baiseraele, le ka wena matsohong a Bafilesita. Hosasane wena le bara ba hao le tla be le le bafu jwaloka nna. Morena o tla neelana le ka mabotho a Baiseraele matsohong a Bafilesita.”
Saule o nyahama pelo
20Hang ha Saule a utlwa mantswe a Samuele a tjapalla fatshe a tshohile haholo, a feletswe ke matla, hobane o ne a qetile letsheare lohle le bosiu bohle a sa je.
21Mosadi eo a atamela ho Saule, a bona hore Saule o tshohile haholo, mme a re ho yena: “Lekgabunyane la hao le ile la mamela lentswe la hao, yaba le ipea kotsing ka ho phetha seo o ileng wa le laela sona. 22Ka baka lena ke a o rapela, le wena ako mamele lekgabunyane la hao. A nke ke u fe thathana ya bohobe o je, o tle o matlafale, ebe o tswela pele leetong la hao.”
23Empa Saule a hana, a re: “Nke ke ka ja!”
Bahlanka ba hae le mosadi eo ba mo qophella, a ba a qetella a dumetse. Jwale a ema fatshe, a dula hodima moalo.
24Mosadi o ne a ena le namane e nontshitsweng ka sakeng. A potlaka, a e hlaba; a nka phofo, a e duba, a pheha bohobe bo sa lomoswang. 25Tsena a di bea kapele ho Saule le bahlanka ba hae, mme ba eja, ba nto ema, ba tsamaya ka bona bosiu bona boo.
