Umpheki waphakamisa umlenze nokwakuphezu kwawo, wawubeka phambi kukaSawule. USamuweli wathi: Nakhu ohlinzekwe ngakho. Kubeke phambi kwakho, udle, ngokuba kugcinelwe wena kuze kufike lesi sikhathi , njengalokho ngit he ngimemile abantu . USawule wayesedla noSamuweli ngalolo suku.

Bavuka ekuseni ; kwathi kusantwela , uSamuweli wabiza uSawule esophahleni lwendlu, wathi: Vuka ukuba ngikumukise. Wayesevuka uSawule, baphuma bobabili, baya phandle, yena noSamuweli.

Wathatha izinkabi ezimbili, wazihlahlela, wazithuma emikhawulweni yonke yakwa-Israyeli ngesandla sezithunywa, ethi: Ongaphumi emva kukaSawule noSamuweli kuyakwenziwa kanjalo kuzo izinkabi zakhe . Ingebhe ngoJehova yehlela phezu kwabantu, baphuma njengomuntu munye.

UJehova wayesethuma oJerubali , noBedani, noJefta, noSamuweli, wanophula esandleni sezitha zenu nxazonke, nahlala nalondeka.

USamuweli wayesekhuleka kuJehova; uJehova wathuma ukuduma nemvula ngalolo suku; bonke abantu besaba kakhulu uJehova noSamuweli.

Wayesebaleka uDavide, waphunyuka, waya kuSamuweli eRama, wamtshela konke uSawule abekwenzile kuye. Yena noSamuweli baya bahlala eNayoti.

Bonke labo ababekhethiwe ukuba babe ngabalindisango babe ngamakhulu amabili neshumi nambili . Babhalwa ngezizukulwane emizaneni yabo , bamiswa ngoDavide noSamuweli umboni ezikhundleni zabo.

Wayesethi uJehova kimi: Noma bekumi phambi kwami oMose noSamuweli, inhliziyo yami ibingebe kulaba bantu; balahle ebusweni bami, baphume.

Ngisezakuthini futhi na ? Isikhathi kambe sizakungishiya , uma ngibalisa ngoGideyoni, noBaraki, noSamsoni, noJefta, noDavide, noSamuweli nabaprofethi,
