14Ko mambo waIsiraeri wakabuda achitsvaka aniko? Munodzingana naniko? Imbwa yakafa, rutata harwo.
15Naizvozvo Jehovha ngaave mutongi, ngaatonge pakati pangu nemi, awone, andireverere pamhosva yangu, andirwire paruoko rwenyu.”
16Dhavhidhi wakati apedza kutaura mashoko iwayo kuna Sauro, Sauro akati, “Izwi rako here, mwana wangu; Dhavhidhi?” Sauro akachema kwazvo.

22Ipapo Dhavhidhi akapika kuna Sauro. Sauro akaenda kumusha kwake, asi Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakaenda kunhare yavo.
