Ipapo Soromoni neʋuŋgano yose pamŋe cete naye ʋakaenda kuɗunhu rakakwirira raiʋa paGibeoni; nokuti ndipo pakaŋga panetente rokusoŋgana raMŋari, rakaŋga raʋakwa murenje naMosesi muranda waJehova. Asi Davidi wakaŋga atora areka yaMŋari paKiriati‐jearimi, akaiisa panɀimbo, Davidi yaakaŋga aigadzirira; nokuti wakaŋga aidzikira tente paJerusarema. Neareka yendarira yakaŋga yaʋumbga naBezareri mŋanakomana waUri, mŋanakomana waHuri, yakaŋga iri’po pamberi petabernakeri yaJehova; Soromoni neʋuŋgano yose ʋakairaŋgarira.
