16 “UDani+ ungomunye weenkoro zakwa-Israyeli,+ uzokwahlulela abantu bakhe.

16 Yeke uJehova bekabeka abahluleli ebebawasindisa esandleni sabadlelezeli bawo.+

13 Ama-Israyeli enza okumbi emehlweni kaJehova godu,+ uJehova wawanikela esandleni samaFilista+ iminyaka ema-40.

5 Qala! Uzokuba sidisi ubelethe indodana begodu iinhluthu zayo+ akukafuzi zirhunwe, ngombana umntwana lo uzokuba mNaziri kaZimu kusukela ekubelethweni kwakhe, uzokudosa phambili ekusindiseni u-Israyeli esandleni samaFilista.”+

31 Ngemva kwesikhathi, abafowabo nomndeni kayise woke behla bazomthatha. Bakhuphuka naye bambulunga hlangana neTsora+ ne-Etjhitawuli ethuneni lakaManowarhi+ uyise. USamsoni bekahlulele u-Israyeli iminyaka ema-20.+

32 Ngikuphi okhunye engingakutjho? Ngombana isikhathi angekhe sangivumela nangingaragela phambili ngihlathulula ngoGidiyoni,+ uBharaki,+ uSamsoni,+ uJafta,+ uDavida+ kunye noSamyela+ nabanye abaphorofidi.
