Davide na Goliate

Yehowa balunguile Samuele’shi: ‘Enda mu nshibo ya Yesee. Umune a ku bana baaye ekala nfumu a kabidi mu Isalele.’ Samuele bayile mu nshibo ya Yesee. Nsaa ibamuene muana mbedi a Yesee, belele kinangu’shi: ‘Uno nsongualume nyi’ye uno.’ Kadi Yehowa balunguile Samuele’shi: Ta ngiawa nya. Yehowa bakuile’shi: ‘Natalaa eshimba dia muntu, kushii biamueneka.’

Yesee batushishe dingi bana baye basamombo. Samuele bakuile’shi: ‘Yehowa tamusangule su ngumune a ku banka nya. Tue na bangi bana? Yesee bambile’shi: ‘Kukii kushaale mukile bukinga ku boso, Davide. Ee mu kudiisha lombe lua nyema.’ Pabaadi Davide mualukie, Yehowa balunguile Samuele’shi: ‘Nnaye yawa!’ Samuele nkupongoola muimu ku mutue wa Davide, aye nkumusangula bua’shi akekale nfumu mu Isalele.

Kunyima kua mafuku, bena Isalele abaadi mu ngoshi na bena Filistine, bena Filistine abaadi na kilobo kiabayitamina bu Goliate buadia kuibaluila ngoshi. Efuku dioso, Goliate baadi’nka asepe bena Isalele. Baadi muele musase’shi: ‘Ntumineyi muntu afikie alue nami. Su bantshokola atuikala bapika benu. Anka su namutshokola anuikala bapika beetu.’

Davide baafikile ku lupese lua bena Isalele mu kupa ba tuutu baaye abaadi basalayi bia kudia. Pabapushiishe Goliate, akula biabia, Davide bambile’shi: ‘Nalu naaye!’ Nfumu Saule nkumulungula’shi: ‘Okii muana mukinga.’ Davide nkumualula’shi: ‘Yehowa ankuasha.’

Saule bakimbile’shi Davide afubishe bina ngoshi biaye, kadi Davide nkumulungula’shi: ‘Ta ngobesha kulua nabio nya.’ Davide baatshile ndundo yaaye nkualaala ku muela. Aye nkusangula minoono itaano nkuiyela mu kampaaya. Akupu bayile kui Goliate. Kiakia kilobo nkuela musaase’shi: ‘Fika pano muan’abe. Bua’shi mpe toonyi tua muiyilu na nyema ya mapia muita oobe.’ Davide tabaadi na moo nya. Aye namu nkuela waye musaase’shi: ‘Ofiki kuandi na muele wa ngoshi na mulumbu ukata na upeela, kadi ami nafiki kodi muishina dia Yehowa. T’oolu neetu nya; Efile Mukulu oolu naye. Bantu boso bebungie pano abakauku’shi Yehowa t’apashaa na lupete lua ngoshi sunga na mulumbu, akenupaana anue boso mu maasa muetu.’

Davide nkuela munoono mu ndundo yaaye, aye nkuiyifunyisha na bukome buaye booso. Ku bukuashi bua Yehowa, munoono ubaatukile awo nkuasa Goliate mu mpala. Kilobo kia balume nkuikupila mu nsenga akio nkufua. Bena Filistine nkusuuka booso. Okuete kukulupila mui Yehowa bu bibakitshine Davide su?
