3 Samuel wa kokere, nOvaisrael avehe ve mu tjitira omutambo nave mu paka motjihuro tje omuini Rama. Saul wa rambere ovakazendu ozonganguze wozombepo zovaṱi, nozombuke mOisrael.
4 NOvafilisti va worongana nave tono ozondanda zawo popezu notjirongo tja Sunem. Nu Saul wa woronganisa Ovaisrael, nowo va tona ozondanda zawo kozondundu za Gilboa. 5 Saul tja muna otjimbumba otjinene tjOvafilisti otja uruma tjinene na zezera. 6 Neye otja kapura Muhona kutja nga tjite vi; nungwari Muhona ke mu zirire embo nandarire rimwe, nangarire moturoto poo momaumbiro wozohanga poo movaprofete. 7 Saul arire tja rakiza ovakarere ve: “Ndji pahereye omukazendu onganguze wozombepo zovaṱi, mbi kemupure.”
Novakarere ve va tja nai ku ye: “MOen-Dor muna umwe.”
8 Saul otje riteturura a zara ozombanda zarwe na kayenda mondjira puna ovaṱike vevari. Tji va kavaza pomukazendu mouṱuku, Saul arire tja tja: “Ndji ukira nombepo yovaṱi, nu u ndji pendurire umwe movakoke ami ngu me ku tamunine.”

Neye a ziri nai: “Ndji pendurira Samuel!”
12 Nomukazendu tja muna Samuel, wa ura tjinene na tja ku Saul: “We ndji tjitire tjike otjineya nai? Ove oove ombara Saul!”
13 Nombara ye mu zira nai: “O tira! Mo munu tjike?”
Nomukazendu wa tja ku Saul: “Me munu ombepo, ndji mai zu mehi.”
14 Saul arire tje mu pura a tja: “Ya sana pi?”
Eye arire tja ziri nai: “Oyo omukururume ngu ma penduka mehi, nu ngwe rikutjire ongwava.”
Saul otja zemburuka kutja oSamuel, ne rikoto mondjozikiro.
15 Samuel a tja nai ku Saul: “Mo ndji kondjisire tjike okundjipendura morusuvo rwandje?”
Saul arire tja tja: “Mbi ri mouzeu ounene, Ovafilisti tjinga ave ndji hingire ovita; nu Ndjambi we ndji esa, nu ke tji nakundjizira notjinyo tjovaprofete na moruroto wina. Opu mba zu okukuisana u ndji tjivise tji mba sokutjita.”

Eye we ku yeka ouhona, ne u yandja ku David. 18 Ove wa kara nokuhinanḓuviro komarakiza wa Muhona, nu ko nyonene Ovaamalek na avihe, mbi va ri na vyo.

20 Tjimanga Saul wa wira pehi na saravara a urumisiwa i omambo wa Samuel. Wina ka ri nomasa, tjinga e ha rire otjiṋa oure weyuva arihe nouṱuku auhe. 21 Omukazendu wa ya ku Saul; nu tja munu kutja Saul wa uruma tjinene wa tja ku ye: “Tara, muhona, omukarere woye wa twa omuinyo we moumba, tja tjiti ihi tji wa ningire. 22 Nambano puratena ku ami; ovikurya ouṱiṱi kove ovyo mbi. Ryaa kutja u hare omasa nu u kayende ondjira yoye.”
23 Nungwari Saul wa panḓa na tja: “Hi nokuvanga okurya.” Nu imba ovakarere ve na ingwi omukazendu ve mu ṋiṋikiza kutja a rye. Eye we ve zuvira, a sekama na kahaama potjiraro. 24 Nomukazendu wa zepa ondana ndja ṋunisirwa monganda; tjazumba otja toora oruhere na rungu, na tereke po omavanda nge hi nosurise. 25 Neye wa twa ovikurya mbi momurungu wa Saul novakarere ve. Nowo va rya, nave i ouṱuku tjingewo.
