16 “Kusasa ngezikhathi zonalezi ngizathumela kuwe indoda yakoBhenjamini.+ Kumele uyigcobe ukuthi ibe ngumkhokheli wabantu bami bako-Israyeli.+ Izakhulula abantu bami ezandleni zamaFilisti ngoba sengibubonile ubunzima abaphakathi kwabo futhi sengikuzwile ukukhala kwabo.”+ 17 USamuyeli wathi ebona uSawuli, uJehova wathi kuye: “Nansi indoda ebengikutshela ngayo ngisithi, ‘Yiyo ezabusa abantu bami.’”+

24 USamuyeli wakhuluma labantu bonke wathi: “Liyambona yini lowo okhethwe nguJehova?+ Kakho onjengaye phakathi kwabo bonke abantu.” Bonke bamemeza bathi: “Kayibe lempilo ende inkosi!”
