Ndee tala, eongamukonda laumwe tali tu omukwao, edongakano ola lunda pombada. 21 NOvaheberi voovene yo va li shito mepangelo lOvafilisti, ndele ve uya pamwe nOvafilisti monhanda, vo ova ya kOvaisraeli ava va li pamwe naSaul naJonatan. 22 Ovalumenhu aveshe Ovaisraeli ovo va li va hondama meemhunda daEfraim eshi va uda nokutya, Ovafilisti va ya onhapo, navo yo va hovela oku va shikula molwoodi. 23 NOmwene okwa xupifa Ovaisraeli mefiku tuu olo olwoodi eshi la koya Bet-Aven.
24 Novanhu vaIsrael ova li va loloka unene mefiku olo, osheshi Saul a anifa ovakwaita ndee ta ti: “Omulumenhu ou ta makele sha fiyo onguloshi fimbo inandi polifa ehandu lange movatondadi vange, na tokolelwe efyo.” Onghee ovakwaita aveshe inava lya sha. 25 Novanhu aveshe ve uya momufitu ndele omo mwa li omaadi eenyiki poshi. 26 Ovakwaita eshi ve uya momufitu, omo mwa li omaadi mahapu mahapu eenyiki. Ndelenee nande umwe ina twala eke laye mokanya, osheshi va tila eano. 27 Ndelenee Jonatan ina uda xe eshi a anifa ovakwaita, ndele ye okwa ulika onhele yonhaili oyo ya li meke laye, ndele e i twa meshila lomaadi eenyiki, ndele a twala eke laye kokanya kaye, nomesho aye a yela. 28 Ndelenee umwe womovakwaita okwe mu lombwela ta ti: “Xo okwa anifa ovakwaita eano ta ti: Omulumenhu ou ta li sha nena eli, na tokolelwe efyo. Onghee hano ovanhu va loloka unene.” 29 Ndee Jonatan ta ti: “Tate ta twala oshilongo momupya.

Ndelenee paife etewatewo lOvafilisti inali ninga mbela linene li dule eli.”
31 Ndelenee mefiku olo va taataa Ovafilisti okudja muMikmas fiyo okuAijalon novakwaita va li va loloka unene. 32 Novakwaita va totela koixuulwa, ndele va kufa eedi neengobe neenhana, ndele ve di tomena meuladu, novakwaita tave di li nohonde. 33 Eshi va shiivifila Saul tava ti: “Tala, ovakwaita tava nyono kOmwene, vo eshi tava li ombelela kumwe nohonde, ye ta ti: ‘Mwa nyona! Alangatifileni paife emanya lakula kwaame.’ ” 34 Saul ta ti vali: “Indeni mo mokati kovanhu mu va lombwele: Keshe umwe na ete kwaame ongobe yaye nodi yaye, e i tomene apa, ndele a lye. Ndelenee inamu nyona kOmwene moku i lya nohonde.” Oufiku tuu ou ovakwaita aveshe keshe umwe, a eta neke laye ongobe yaye te i tomene ko. 35 Ndele Saul okwa tungila Omwene oaltari. Oyo oaltari yotete ye a tungila Omwene.
36 Opo nee Saul ta ti: “Tu yeni, tu ka shikuleni Ovafilisti oufiku nokunyeka fiyo kwa sha. Ndele inatu efeni nande umwe a kale nomwenyo.” Ndele vo va nyamukula: “Ninga ashishe eshi tashi ku wapalele.” Ndelenee omupristeli ta ti: “Tu eheneni kuKalunga!” 37 Opo nee Saul a pula kuKalunga: “Ohandi ka shikula tuu Ovafilisti? Ove to va yandje tuu momake Ovaisraeli?” Ndelenee Ye ine mu nyamukula sha efiku olo. 38 Ndele Saul ta ti: “Ileni oku ovakulunhu nye amushe vovanhu, mu pulapule nokutala olyelye a nyona. 39 Osheshi oshili Omwene ngaashi e nomwenyo, ou a xupifa Ovaisraeli, nande omumwange Jonatan a nyona, ye e nokufya shili!” Ndelenee nande umwe womovakwaita e mu nyamukula. 40 Opo ta ti kOvaisraeli aveshe: “Nye kaleni ofika kombinga imwe, naame nomumwange Jonatan, hatu kala ofika kombinga ikwao.” Novakwaita va nyamukula Saul, tava ti: “Ninga eshi she ku wapalela.” Opo nee Saul ta ti: “Ninga eshi she ku wapalela.” 41 Opo nee Saul ta ti: “Omwene Kalunga kaIsrael, omolwashike ino nyamukula omupiya woye nena?

Ngeenge oushima ou li mwaame ile omomumwange Jonatan, nyamukule nge muUrim; ndelenee ngeenge oushima ou li movanhu voye Ovaisraeli, nyamukula muTummim.” Jonatan naSaul va ulikwa ndele ovanhu ova ya. 42 Ndele Saul ta ti: “Umbileni oshihoololifo pokati ketu nomumwange Jonatan.” Ndele Jonatan a ulikwa. 43 Opo nee Saul ta pula Jonatan: “Shiivifile nge eshi wa ninga.” Ndele Jonatan okwe mu shiivifila ndee ta ti: “Ame onda makela omaadi manini eenyiki konhele yonhaili ei ya li meke lange.

Oshilonga shuufule shaJonatan
1 Esiku limwe Jonatan okwa lombwele omuhumbati gwomatati ge a ti: “Tu taaguluke, tu ye kontanda yAafilisti.” Ihe Jonatan ina lombwela nando he Saul, 2 ngoka a li a yungu ontanda momuti omugranati muMigron popepi naGibea; okwa li e na aalumentu konyala omathele gahamano. 3 (Omuyambi ngoka a zala omapepenguwo, okwa li Ahija yaAhitub. Ahitub okwa li omumwayina gwaIkabod yaPinehas nomutekulu gwaEli, ngoka a li nale omuyambi gwOmuwa muShilo.) Aantu inaa tseya kutya Jonatan okwa ya.
4 Metaulilo lyaMikmash, moka Jonatan a li e na okweenda, e ye kontanda yAafilisti, mondjila omwa li omamanya gaali, Bozez naSene ga tegama. 5 Ndyoka lya taalela kuMikmash, olya li kombinga yuumbangalantu wetaulilo, nekwawo lya taalela kuGeba, okombinga yuumbugantu.
6 Jonatan okwa ti komumati: “Natu ye popepi nontanda yAafilisti mboka aapagani. Pamwe Omuwa te tu kwatha. Ngele ote shi ningi, nena kape na shoka tashi mu imbi, e tu pe esindano, nando otu li po aashona.”
7 Omumati okwa yamukula a ti: “Shaa shoka wa hala u ninge, ondi li pamwe nangoye.”
8 Jonatan okwa ti: “Onawa. Otatu ka taaguluka e tatu yi montaneho yAafilisti. 9 Ngele otaye tu lombwele, tu ya tegelele, nena otatu thikama mpoka tu li. 10 Ihe ngele otaye tu lombwele, tu ye kuyo, nena natu ye, oshoka shika osho endhindhiliko kutya Omuwa okwe tu pa esindano, tu ya sinde.”
11 Ano oyi imonitha kAafilisti, nAafilisti oya ti: “Taleni! Aahebeli yamwe oyo mbeyaka taa hololoka momakololo moka ya li ya holama.” 12 Nena oyi igidha Jonatan nomumati ya ti: “Ileni huka! Otu na sha oku mu lombwela.”
Jonatan okwa ti komumati: “Landula ndje. Omuwa okwa gandja esindano kuIsrael, e ya sinde.” 13 Jonatan okwa londo ta kookaya ta zi metaulilo, nomumati okwe mu landula. Jonatan okwa ponokele Aafilisti e te ya hata pevi, nomumati okwe ya dhipaga. 14 Meponokelo ndika lyotango Jonatan nomumati oya dhipaga konyala aalumentu omilongo mbali mehala eshona. 15 Aafilisti ayehe montanda oya haluka; aaponokeli naakwiita Aafilisti oya kwatwa kuumbanda; evi olya kakama, nokwa li epiyagano enene.
Aafilisti taa sindwa
16 Aalangeli yaSaul muGibea moshitopolwa shaBenjamin oya mono Aafilisti taa matuka mepiyagano. 17 Nena Saul okwa ti kaantu ye: “Yaluleni aakwiita, mu mone mboka yaa po.” Oye shi ningi noya mono kutya Jonatan nomumati gwe ngoka ha humbata omatati ge, kaye po. 18 Saul okwa lombwele omuyambi Ahija ta ti: “Eta omapepenguwo huka.” (Esiku ndyoka Ahija okwa li e ga zala montaneho yAaisraeli.) 19 Manga Saul ta popi ta lombwele omuyambi, epiyagano montanda yAafilisti olya lundu pombanda noonkondo. Nena Saul okwa ti kuAhija: “Kape na ompito okupula omayele kOmuwa.” 20 Opo ihe oya matukile kolugodhi okukondjitha Aafilisti, mboka ya li taa kondjithathana molwokupiyagana kwawo. 21 Aahebeli yamwe mboka ya li ya gama kombinga yAafilisti noya yi nayo kontanda, oye ya pilukile e taa gama kuSaul naJonatan. 22 Yalwe mboka ya li ya holama moondundu dhaEfraim, oyu uvu kutya Aafilisti otaa yi ontuku. Onkee oya gama kuyakwawo e taa ponokele Aafilisti. 23 Oya kondjo ondjila ayihe, sigo ya kondo Betaven. Omuwa okwa hupitha Israel esiku ndyoka.
Iiningwanima konima yolugodhi
24 Aaisraeli oya li ya loloka noya sa ondjala esiku ndyoka, oshoka Saul okwa li a gandja nokugana oshipango tashi ti: “Shaa ngoka ta li sha nena, manga inaandi galulila aatondi ondjahi yandje, na thingwe.” Onkee kakwa li omuntu a li a lya sha esiku alihe. 25 Ayehe oye ya mokuti, naakuhe oya mono omagadhi goonyushi. 26 Okuti okwa li ku udha omagadhi goonyushi, ihe kapwa li ngoka a vulu oku ga lya, oshoka ayehe oya li ya tila etulomutima lyaSaul. 27 Ihe Jonatan okwa li inaa uva kutya he okwa tilitha aantu nethingo. Onkee okwa hoyo nondhimbo ndjoka a li nayo, a tsu mo mehila lyoonyushi nomagadhi oga zi mo e ta li. Ohaluka okwa ndjangumukwa nawa. 28 Ihe gumwe gwomaantu okwa ti: “Tse atuhe otwa sa ondjala, ihe ho okwe tu kotokele a ti: ‘Oongoka ta li sha nena, na thingwe.’ ”
29 Jonatan okwa yamukula a ti: “Akwetu, tate okwa ningile aantu ye iihuna yi thike peni! Taleni, nkene nda ndjanga, sho nda makele omagadhi goonyushi. 30 Ando aantu yetu ya lile iikulya mbyoka ye yi kutha aatondi, ando oya ndjanga ngiini noya dhipaga Aafilisti yangapi!”
31 Esiku ndyoka Aaisraeli oya dhenge Aafilisti noye ya tidhagana ondjila ayihe okuza kuMikmash sigo okuAjalon. Ihe Aaisraeli oya li ya nongwa nayi kondjala. 32 Oya mbulukutile koshihakanwa ye shi yugu aatondi, oya kutha oonzi noongombe noya tselele mpoka noya li onyama yi na ombinzi. 33 Saul okwa lombwelwa kwa tiwa: “Tala, aantu otaa yono kOmuwa, sho taa li onyama yi na ombinzi.”
Saul okwi igidha a ti: “Yagwaaleki ne! Galangatithilii ndje huka emanya enene.” 34 Okwe ya lombwele ishewe a ti: “Indeni mokati kaantu, mu ya lombwele, ye ete oongombe dhawo noonzi huka. Naye dhi tsele yo ye dhi lile mpaka; inaa yona kOmuwa mokulya onyama yi na ombinzi.” Uusiku mbwiyaka oye eta iimuna yawo ayihe noye yi tselele mpoka. 35 Saul okwa tungile Omuwa oshiyambelo; osho oshiyambelo shotango a tungile Omuwa.
36 Saul okwa ti kaantu ye: “Natu ka tidhagane Aafilisti uusiku, tu ya yuge, sigo taku shi tse tu ya dhipage ayehe.”
Oya yamukula ya ti: “Ninga shoka wa tala sho opala.”
Ihe omuyambi okwa ti: “Natu puleni tango Kalunga.”
37 Saul okwa pula Kalunga a ti: “Nandi ka ponokele Aafilisti? Oto ke tu pa esindano?” Ihe Kalunga ina yamukula esiku ndyoka. 38 Nena Saul okwa ti kaawiliki yoshigwana: “Ileni huka, mu konakone kutya epuko oli li peni nena. 39 Otandi uvaneke koshipala shaKalunga omunamwenyo, ngoka ta pe Israel esindano, kutya omunandjo ngoka ota ka dhipagwa, nando na kale omumwandje Jonatan.” Ihe kapwa li ngoka a popya sha. 40 Nena Saul okwa ti kuyo: “Amuhe thikameni kombinga ndjiyaka, manga tse naJonatan tatu thikama kombinga ndjika.”
Oya ti: “Ninga shoka sho opala momeho goye.”
41 Saul okwa ti kOmuwa Kalunga kaIsrael: “Omuwa, oshike inoo yamukula ndje nena? Omuwa Kalunga kaIsrael, yamukula ndje momamanya omayapuki. Ngele uusama owaJonatan nenge owandje, yamukula muUrim; ihe ngele owaantu yoye Aaisraeli, yamukula muTummim.” Eyamukulo olyu ulike Jonatan naSaul, aantu noya manguluka. 42 Nena Saul okwa ti: “Tokola pokati ketu nomumwandje Jonatan.” Jonatan oku ulikwa. 43 Nena Saul okwa pula Jonatan: “Owa ninga shike?”
Jonatan okwa yamukula: “Onda lya uugadhi woonyushi. Ongame nguka, ondi ilongekidhila okusa.”
44 Saul okwa ti kuye: “Jonatan, Kalunga na dhenge ndje, ndi se, ngele ito dhipagwa!”
45 Ihe aantu oya ti kuSaul: “Ngiini? Jonatan a se, ngoka a sindile Israel esindano enene? Aawoo! Otatu gana kuKalunga omunamwenyo kutya ita ka kanitha nando ondali yefufu lyokomutse gwe. Shoka a ningi nena, okwe shi ningi kekwatho lyaKalunga.” Osho ngaaka aantu oya popile Jonatan, kaa se.
46 Konima yaashika Saul okwa galuka okulandula Aafilisti, noya shuna koshilongo shaandjawo.
Elelo lyaSaul noluvalo lwe
47 Saul sho a ningi omukwaniilwa gwaIsrael, okwa kondjitha aatondi ye ayehe koombinga adhihe: Aamoabi, Aayammoni nAaedomi, aakwaniilwa yaZoba, nAafilisti. Shaa nkoka a ka kondja, okwa sindana.
48 Okwa kondjo nuupenda nokwa dhenge nokuli Aayamaleki. Okwa mangulula Aaisraeli kwaamboka ya li haye ya yugu.
