16 Amaherezo Yehova abwira Samweli ati “uzakomeza kuririra Sawuli ugeze ryari,+ ko jye namaze kwanga ko akomeza kuba umwami wa Isirayeli?+ Uzuza amavuta+ mu ihembe ryawe ugende. Ngiye kukohereza kuri Yesayi+ w’i Betelehemu, kuko mu bahungu be nabonyemo uzaba umwami.”+

2 “Nawe Betelehemu Efurata,+ nubwo uri muto cyane ku buryo utabarwa mu bihumbi by’u Buyuda,+ muri wowe+ hazava umutware uzakora ibyo nshaka muri Isirayeli,+ wabayeho kuva kera cyane, uhereye mu bihe bitarondoreka.+

6 ‘nawe Betelehemu+ yo mu gihugu cy’u Buyuda, nturi umugi muto cyane kurusha iyindi mu batware b’i Buyuda, kuko muri wowe hazaturuka umutware+ uzaragira+ ubwoko bwanjye bwa Isirayeli.’”
