³ Inkosi yasisithi: Kakulamuntu wendlu kaSawuli yini ukuthi ngimenzele umusa kaNkulunkulu? USiba wayesethi enkosini: “UJonathani unenye indodana elunyonga ezinyaweni.”

⁷ UDavide wayesethi kuye: “Ungesabi, ngokuba ngiyakukwenzela nokukwenzela umusa ngenxa kaJonathani uyihlo, ngibuyisele lonke izwe likayihlo uSawule; futhi kumelwe nidle isinkwa njalo etafuleni lami.

⁸ Wakhothama, wathi: “Iyini inceku yakho ukuba unake inja efileyo njengami na?”
