1 SAMUELE 17

31Ha batho ba utlwa mantswe a Davida ba tsebisa Saule, mme yena a re Davida a bitswe.

Davida o itokisetsa ho lwantsha Goliate

32Davida a re ho Saule: “Ho se be le ya mong ya nyahamang pelo ka baka le Mofilesita enwa. Nna, mohlanka wa hao, ke tla ya, ke yo lwantsha Mofilesita enwa!”

33Empa Saule a re ho Davida: “O ke ke wa ba wa lwantsha Mofilesita eo, hobane o sa le moshanyana. Yena haesale e le mohlabani ho tloha botjheng ha hae.”

34Yaba Davida o re ho Saule: “Mohlanka wa hao o alosa dinku tsa ntatae. Ha tau kapa bere e hlaha, mme e hlasinya konyana kahara mohlape, 35ke ye ke e lelekise, ke e otle, ke pholose konyana e molomong wa yona. Ha tau eo, kapa bere eo, e ntwantsha, ke ye ke e tshware ka ditlena, ke e kgakgathe, ke e bolaye. 36Mohlanka wa hao o se a ile a bolaya tau le bere. Mofilesita enwa wa leqai o tla shwa jwaloka e nngwe ya tsona, hobane o tlakile mabotho a Modimo ya phelang.” 37Davida a boela a re: “Morena ya nnamoletseng marong a tau, le marong a bere, o tla nnamolela matsohong a Mofilesita enwa.”

Yaba Saule o re ho Davida: “Tsamaya, Morena o tla ba le wena!”

38Saule a apesa Davida seaparo sa hae sa ntwa, a mo rwesa katiba e entsweng ka lethose, a nto mo apesa baki e entsweng ka tshepe. 39Davida a tlamella sabole ya Saule hodima seaparo sa hae. A leka ho tsamaya, empa a hloleha, hobane o ne a sa tlwaela diaparo tsena. Davida a re ho Saule: “Ke sitwa ho tsamaya ka diaparo tsena, hobane ha ke a di tlwaela.” Yaba Davida o a di hlobola. 40A nka molamu wa hae, a kgetha majwe a mahlano a boreledi ka nokaneng, a a kenya ka pataneng ya hae, e leng kotla ya hae, letjeketjane le le ka letsohong la hae, a nto atamela ho Mofilesita.

Davida o hlola Mofilesita

41Mofilesita a nna a atamela ho Davida, mojari wa thebe ya hae a mo eteletse pele. 42Ha Mofilesita a ntse a qamaka, a bona Davida, mme a mo halala, hobane Davida e ne e le moshanyana, a le mosehla, sebopeho sa hae se kgahleha. 43Mofilesita a re ho Davida: “Na nna ke ntja, ha o ntlela ka molangwana tjee?” Mofilesita a rohaka Davida ka modimo wa hae, 44a re ho Davida: “Tloo kwano, ke tswe ke fepa dinonyana tsa lehodimo le dibatana tsa naha ka nama ya hao!”

45Yaba Davida o re ho Mofilesita: “O ntlela ka sabole, le ka lerungwana, le ka mophekapheka wa lerumo, empa nna ke tla ka lebitso la Morena wa mabotho, Modimo wa mara a Iseraele, ao o ntseng o a tlaka. 46Kajeno lena Modimo o tla neelana ka wena matsohong a ka; ke tla o bolaya, ke be ke o kgaole hlooho! Ka ditopo tsa mabotho a Bafilesita ke tla fepa dinonyana tsa lehodimo, le dibatana tsa naha, e le hore lefatshe lohle le tle le tsebe hore Modimo o teng Iseraeleng. 47Le letshwele lena lohle le tle le tsebe hore Morena ha a pholose ka sabole le lerumo feela, hobane ntwa ena ke ya Morena, mme o tla neelana ka lona matsohong a rona.”

48Eitse ha Mofilesita a ema, a etla, mme a atamela ho Davida, Davida a phakisa a mathela thekong ya ntwa, ho ya kgahlanyetsa Mofilesita eo. 49Davida a kenya letsoho la hae ka kotleng ya hae, a ntsha lejwe, a le betsa ka letjeketjane, la bata Mofilesita phatleng. Lejwe leo la fohlotsa phatla ya Mofilesita, mme Mofilesita a re ka sefahleho fatshe polopoqo!

50Davida a hlola Mofilesita ka letjeketjane le ka lejwe. A bata Mofilesita, a mmolaya, empa Davida a ne a sa nka sabole.

51Yaba Davida o mathela ho Mofilesita, o fihla a mo okamela, a tsomula sabole ya Goliate selateng sa yona, a mmolaya ka ho mo kgaola hlooho ka sabole eo.

Ha Bafilesita ba bona hore senatla sa bona se shwele, ba phasaphasa. 52Jwale banna ba Iseraele le banna ba morabe wa Juda ba raoha, ba hlaba mokgosi, ba phaladisa Bafilesita ho ya fihla Gate le dikgorong tsa Ekerone. Mahlatsipa a Bafilesita ba weleng a etsa mohoula ho tloha Shaaraime, ho ya fihla Gate, le ho ya fihla Ekerone. 53Ha bana ba Iseraele ba kgutla ho tswa phaladisa Bafilesita, ba fihla ba hapa tse ka diahelong tsa Bafilesita. 54Davida a nka hlooho ya Mofilesita, a e isa Jerusalema, empa dihlomo tsa Mofilesita tsona a di bea ka tenteng ya hae.

Davida o hlahiswa kapele ho Saule

55E ne e ile yare ha Saule a bona Davida a etswa ho ya lwana le Mofilesita, a re ho Abinere, molaodi wa lebotho: “Abinere, moshanyana eo ke mora wa mang?”

Abinere a re: “Ke hlapanya ka kgosi ya ka e phelang: Ha ke tsebe!”

56Kgosi ya re: “Tsamaya o yo botsa hore na moshanyana eno ke mora wa mang.”

57Ha Davida a kgutla ho tswa bolaya Mofilesita, Abinere a mo nka, a mo hlahisa kapele ho Saule, Davida a ntse a nkile hlooho ya Mofilesita ka matsoho.

58Saule a re ho Davida: “O mora wa mang, wena mohlankana?”

Davida a re: “Ke mora wa Jese, mohlanka wa hao wa Betlelehema.”

1 SAMUELE 18

Setswalle sa Davida le Jonathane

1Ha Davida a se a qetile ho bua le Saule, moya wa Jonathane wa kgomarelana le moya wa Davida, mme Jonathane a rata Davida jwalokaha a ithata. 2Ka lona letsatsi leo, Saule a nka Davida, a se ke a mo dumella ho hlola a kgutlela tlung ya ntatae. 3Bo-Jonathane le Davida ba etsa selekane, hobane Jonathane o ne a rata Davida jwalokaha a ithata. 4Jonathane a hlobola seaparo seo a neng a se apere, a se nea Davida. A mo nea le baki e entsweng ka tshepe, le sabole ya hae, le seqha sa hae, le leqhama la hae.

5Hohle moo Saule a neng a roma Davida teng, o ne a atleha, hoo Saule a bileng a mo e etsa mookamedi wa bahlabani. Hona ha thabisa setjhaba sohle, le balaodi ba Saule ba mabotho.

Saule o qala ho honohela Davida

6Ha Davida a kgutla le mabotho, a tswa bolaya Goliate, basadi ba tswa metseng yohle ya Iseraele, ba tla ba bina, ba bile ba etsa motjeko, ho kgahlanyetsa kgosi Saule. Ba ne ba letsa meropa le diharepa, ka thabo. 7Basadi ba neng ba etsa motjeko ba ne ba bina, ba re:

“Saule o bolaile ba hae ba dikete,

Davida yena

o bolaile ba kete tsa dikete.”

8Saule a halefa haholo, a se ke a thabiswa ke puo ena, mme a re: “Ba re Davida o bolaile ba dikete tsa dikete, empa nna ba re ke bolaile ba dikete! Eba o sa saletswe ke eng, haese mmuso feela?” 9Saule a honohela Davida ke hona, haesale ho tloha mohlang oo, ho ya ho ile.

10Ka letsatsi le hlahlamang moya o ditshila, o tswang ho Modimo, wa theohela hodima Saule ka matla. Saule a halefa jwaloka lehlanya, a le ka tlung ya hae. Davida a letsa harepa ya hae jwalokaha a nne a etse ka matsatsi wohle, Saule yena a tshwere lerumo. 11Saule a betsa lerumo, hobane o ne a re: “Ke tla hlabella Davida leboteng.” Empa Davida a qoba lerumo leo habedi.

12Saule o ne a tshaba Davida, kahobane Morena o ne a ena le Davida, a furaletse Saule. 13Ka baka leo, Saule a tlosa Davida ho yena, a mo etsa molaodi wa ba sekete. Davida o ne a futuha, a be a kgutle a ntse a eteletse bahlabani pele. 14Davida o ne a atleha ho tsohle tseo a di etsang, hobane Morena o ne a ena le yena. 15Ha Saule a bona hore Davida o a atleha, a mo tshaba le ho feta. 16Empa Baiseraele bohle le ba morabe wa Juda, ba ne ba rata Davida, hobane o ne a futuha, a be a kgutle a ntse a ba eteletse pele.

Davida o nyala moradi wa Saule

17Saule a re ho Davida: “Merabe, moradi wa ka wa matsibolo, ke enwa, ke o nea yena hore e be mosadi wa hao. Feela wena o be mohlabani wa ka ya sebete, o lwane dintwa tsa Morena.” Ka pelong ya hae Saule o ne a re: “A se ke a bolawa ke nna, a mpe a bolawe ke Bafilesita.”

18Empa Davida a re ho Saule: “Nna ke mang? Hona leloko la ka, kapa lelapa leso, ke eng moo naheng ya Iseraele, hoo nka bang mokgwenyana wa kgosi?” 19Yare ha Merabe, moradi wa Saule, a tshwanela ho newa Davida, yaba o newa Adariele wa Mehola, hore e be mosadi wa hae.

20Jwale Mikale, moradi wa Saule, o ne a rata Davida. Batho ba bolella Saule, mme hoo ha mo thabisa. 21Saule a re: “Ke tla mo nea Mikale, hore e tle e be leraba ho yena, Bafilesita ba tle ba mmolaye.” Saule a re ho Davida: “Kajeno lena, o tla ba mokgwenyana wa ka, ka baka la moradi wa ka wa bobedi.”

22Saule a laela bahlanka ba hae, a re: “Buang le Davida ka lekunutu, le re: ‘Bona mona, kgosi e a o rata, le bahlanka ba yona bohle ba a o rata; ka baka leo, eba mokgwenyana wa kgosi.’ ”

23Bahlanka ba kgosi ba tsebisa Davida ditaba tsena. Yaba Davida o re: “Le bona e le ntho e ka etsahalang, ya hore ke be mokgwenyana wa kgosi, empa ke le mofutsana ya sa hlompheheng?”

24Bahlanka ba Saule ba mmolella, ba re: “Davida o buile tjena le tjena.”

25Yaba Saule o re: “Le tle le bolelle Davida tjena: ‘Kgosi ha e batle bohadi, e ipatlela feela maeko a lekgolo a Bafilesita, hore kgosi e iphetetse ho dira tsa yona.’ ” Saule o ne a hopola hore hoo ho tla etsa hore Davida a bolawe ke Bafilesita.

26Bahlanka ba kgosi ba tsebisa Davida ditaba tsena, mme Davida a thabela hore e tle e be mokgwenyana wa kgosi. Pele ho letsatsi la lenyalo, 27Davida a tsoha, a tsamaya le banna ba hae, a bolaya Bafilesita ba makgolo a mabedi. Davida a tlisa maeko a Bafilesita, a a nea kgosi, palo ya wona e feletse, hore e tle e be mokgwenyana wa kgosi. Jwale Saule a mo nea Mikale, moradi wa hae, hore e be mosadi wa hae.

28Ha Saule a bona, a bile a tseba, hore Morena o na le Davida, le hore moradi wa hae Mikale o rata Davida, 29a nna a eketsa ho tshaba Davida. Ka matsatsi wohle a ho phela ha hae, Saule a hloya Davida.

30Mahosana a Bafilesita a futuha, empa kamehla ha a ne a futuha, Davida o ne a a hlola ho feta balaodi bohle ba Saule, mme lebitso la hae la tuma haholo.

1 SAMUELE 19

Saule o hlorisa Davida

1Saule a bolella Jonathane, mora wa hae, le bahlanka ba hae bohle, hore ba bolaye Davida. Empa Jonathane, mora wa Saule, o ne a rata Davida haholo. 2Jonathane a bolella Davida, a re: “Saule, e leng ntate, o rata ho o bolaya. Ka baka leo, ke a o rapela: Hosasane o itlhokomele, o ipate moo ho seng motho ya tsebang. 3Nna ke tla tswa le ntate, ke eme pela hae ha a le naheng, moo o tla be o ipatile teng, ebe ke bua ka wena ho yena. Ke tla o bolella seo ke tla se utlwa.”

4Jonathane a bua Davida hantle ho Saule, ntatae, a re ho yena: “Kgosi e se ke ya sitelwa Davida, mohlanka wa yona, hobane Davida ha a a o sitelwa, etswe le diketso tsa hae e bile tse ntle ho wena. 5O ile a ipea kotsing, a bolaya Mofilesita, mme ka yena Morena a namolela Baiseraele bohle ka mokgwa o hlollang. Le wena o bone, wa ba wa thaba. Jwale ke ka baka lang ha o rata ho sitelwa madi a se nang molato ka ho bolaya Davida ntle ho lebaka?”

6Saule a mamela keletso ya Jonathane, mme a hlapanya, a re: “Ka Morena ya phelang, Davida ha a ka ke a bolawa.”

7Yaba Jonathane o bitsa Davida, o mmolella ditaba tsena tsohle. Jonathane a tlisa Davida ho Saule, mme Davida a boela a phela pela Saule jwaloka pele.

Saule o leka ho bolaya Davida

8Ha boela ha qhoma ntwa. Davida a futuha, a lwantsha Bafilesita; a ba etsa mofela hoo ba bileng ba mmaleha.

9Moya o mobe, o tswang ho Morena, wa theohela hodima Saule ha ntse a dutse ka tlung ya hae, a tshwere lerumo, Davida yena a ntse a letsa harepa. 10Saule a leka ho hlabella Davida leboteng ka lerumo. Empa Davida a re thee! Yaba Saule o hlaba lebota ka lerumo. Davida a baleha, mme a phonyoha hona bosiung boo.

Davida o pholoswa ke Mikale

11Ka bona bosiu boo Saule a romela maqosa ho ya lalla Davida tlung ya hae, e le hore a tle a mmolaye ka la hosasane. Empa Mikale, mohatsa Davida, a mo tsebisa taba ena, a re: “Haeba o ke ke wa baleha bosiung bona, hosasane o tla bolawa.” 12Mikale a lepelleletsa Davida kantle, ka fesetere. Davida a ipha dimenyane, a phonyoha. 13Jwale Mikale a nka modingwana wa lelapa, a o robatsa diphateng, a o samela mosamo wa boya ba dipodi, a o apesa kobo.

14Saule a romela maqosa ho ya tshwara Davida, empa Mikale a re: “Davida o a kula.”

15Saule a romela maqosa hore a yo bona Davida, a ba a re ho wona: “Le mo tlise kwano ka diphate tsa hae, ke tlo mmolaya!” 16Eitse ha maqosa a kena ka ha Davida, a fumana modingwana wa lelapa o sametsweng mosamo wa boya ba dipodi, o robaditswe diphateng.

17Saule a re ho Mikale: “Ke ka baka lang ha o nthetsitse tjee, o bile o tlohetse le sera sa ka se iketse, se phonyohile?”

Mikale a re ho Saule: “O ile a re ho nna: ‘Ntlohele ke tsamaye, ho seng jwalo ke tla o bolaya!’ ”

Davida o balehela ho Samuele

18Yaba Davida o a phonyoha, o a baleha, a ba a ya fihla Rama, ho Samuele. A phetela Samuele tsohle tseo Saule a mo entseng tsona. Bo-Davida le Samuele ba tsamaya, ba ya phela Naiote. 19Saule a tsebiswa, ha thwe: “Davida o Naiote.” 20Jwale Saule a roma maqosa ho ya tshwara Davida. Ha maqosa a bona sehlopha sa baporofeta se ntse se porofeta, Samuele a se eteletse pele, Moya wa Modimo wa theohela hodima maqosa ao a Saule, mme le wona a porofeta. 21Ha Saule a tsebiswa taba ena, a boela a roma maqosa a mang, mme le wona a fihla a porofeta. Saule a boela a roma maqosa lekgetlo la boraro, mme le wona a fihla a porofeta.

Saule hara baporofeta

22Jwale Saule a ikisa Rama ka nama, a fihla sedibeng se seholo se Seku. A botsa, a re: “Bo-Samuele le Davida ba kae?”

E mong a re: “Ba Naiote e Rama.” 23A tloha moo, a ya Naiote e Rama. Yaba Moya wa Morena o theohela le hodima Saule, a tsamaya a ntse a porofeta, a ba a ya fihla Naiote e Rama. 24Le yena a hlobola diaparo tsa hae, a porofeta kapele ho Samuele. A qeta letsatsi leo lohle, le bosiu boo bohle, a paqame fatshe, a tsotse. Ke kahoo ho bileng le polelo e reng: “Na Saule le yena ke e mong wa baporofeta?”
