Wazikhethela isabelo sokuqala , ngokuba sasigodliwe lapho isabelo somahluleli; wahamba nezinhloko zabantu , wafeza ukulunga kukaJehova , nezahlulelo zakhe kanye no-Israyeli.

USawule wazikhethela abantu abayizinkulungwane ezintathu kwa -Israyeli; izinkulungwane ezimbili zazinoSawule eMikimashi nasentabeni yaseBetlehema, nenkulungwane yayinoJonathani eGibeya lakwaBenjamini ; abanye abantu wabamukisa, kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe.

Wathatha induku yakhe ngesandla , wazikhethela amatshe ayisihlanu abushelezi emfudlaneni , wawafaka esikhwameni somalusi ayenaso , eyikeni lakhe, indwayimana yakhe isesandleni sakhe; wayesesondela kumFilisti.

Kepha uPawulu wazikhethela uSila , wahamba enikelwe ngabazalwane emseni weNkosi.
