8 Sawula watfukutsela kakhulu,+ futsi lengoma yamcansula ngobe bekatsi: “Badvumise Davide ngekutsi ubulele bantfu labangemashumi etinkhulungwane, kodvwa mine batsi ngibulele tinkhulungwane nje kuphela. Intfo lesele nyalo kutsi bamnike yona bukhosi!”+ 9 Kusukela ngalelolanga, Sawula abehlala ambuka kabi Davide.
