Ɀino mŋanakomana waSauro wakaŋga anaʋarume ʋaʋiri ʋakaŋga ʋari ʋakuru ʋamapoka; zita romumŋe rakaŋga riri Baana, zita romumŋe Rehabi; ʋaiʋa ʋana ʋaRimoni muBeeroti, waʋana ʋaBenjamini; (nokuti Beeroti rakaŋga riciʋereŋgerwa ʋo kunaBenjamini; ʋaBeeroti ʋakatizira Gitaimi, ʋakaʋa ʋatorwa’po kuȿikira nhasi). Ɀino Jonatani mŋanakomana waSauro, wakaŋga anomŋanakomana wakaremara pamakumbo ake. Iye wakaŋga aʋa namakore mashanu paŋguʋa yokuȿika kweshoko rokuʋurawa kwaSauro naJonatani paJezreeri, mureri wake akamusimudza akatiza naye; ɀino wakati acikurumidza kutiza, mŋana akawa, akaremara.

Ʋakapinda mukati meimba, ʋaciita sokuɗa kutora ɀiyo, ʋakamuɓaya nomuɗumbu; Rekabi naBaana ndokutiza. Nokuti ʋakaŋga ʋapinda mumba, iye aʋete panhoʋo dzake mumba make mokuʋata, ʋakamuɓaya, ʋakamuʋuraya, ʋakagura musoro wake, ndokutora musoro wake, ʋakaenda nenzira yeAraba ʋusiku bgose. Ʋakaisa musoro waIshi‐bosheti kunaDavidi paHebroni, ʋakati kunamambo: Hoyo musoro waIshi‐bosheti mŋanakomana waSauro muʋeŋgi wenyu, wakaŋga acitȿaka kukuʋurayai; Jehova wakatsiʋa ishe waŋgu mambo nhasi pamsoro paSauro naʋana ʋake. Davidi akapindura Rekabi naBaana munuŋuna wake, ʋana ʋaRimoni muBeeroti, akati kwaʋari: NaJehova mupenyu, wakadzikinura mŋeya waŋgu panjodzi dzose, musi wandakaʋudzwa nomumŋe, aciti: Tarirai, Sauro wafa, acifuŋga kuti waʋuya neshoko rakanaka, ndakamuɓata, ndikamuʋuraya paZikragi; ndiwo waiʋa muɓairo wandakamupa pamsoro peshoko rake. Ndoɗa kana ʋanhu ʋakaipa ʋaʋuraya munhu wakarurama hake mumba make, aʋete panhoʋo dzake, handiŋgareʋi ropa rake pamaʋoko enyu ɀino, ndikakubvisai panyika here? Ipapo Davidi akaraira majaya ake, ʋakaʋaʋuraya, ʋakagura maʋoko aʋo netsoka dzaʋo, ʋakaʋaturika kurutiʋi rwedziʋa paHebroni. Asi ʋakatora musoro waIshi‐bosheti, ʋakauʋiga mubgiro bgaAbineri paHebroni.
