16 UDavida wathi eqeda ukumtshela amazwi la, uSawuli wathi: “Lilizwi lakho leli yini ndodana yami Davida?”+ USawuli wasiqhinqa isililo. 17 Wasesithi kuDavida: “Ulungile kulami ngoba ungiphathe kuhle kodwa mina ngikubuyisela ngokubi.+ 18 Lamuhla usungitshele okuhle okwenzileyo ngokungangibulali lanxa uJehova ubenginikele esandleni sakho.+

21 USawuli waphendula wathi: “Ngonile,+ phenduka ndodana yami Davida. Angisoze ngikwenze lutho ngoba lamuhla utshengise ukuthi impilo yami iligugu kuwe.+ Ngenze ubuthutha sibili futhi ngiphambanise kakhulu.”
