2. Ndipo kunali, kuti likasalo linakhala nthawi yaikuru m'Kiriati-yearimu; popeza linakhalako zaka makumi awiri; ndipo banja lonse la Israyeli linalirira Yehova.
3. Ndipo Samueli analankhula ndi banja lonse la Israyeli nati, Ngati mukuti mubwerere kunka kwa Yehova ndi mitima yanu yonse, cotsani pakati pa inu milungu yacilendo, ndi Asitaroti, nimukonzere Yehova mitima yanu, ndi kumtumikira iye yekha; mukatero, iye adzakupulumutsani m'manja a Afilisti.
