1. Wabaleka uDavide eNayoti ngaseRama, weza, wathi phambi koYonatan, Ndenzé ntoni na? Buyini na ubugwenxa bam? Síyini na isono sam phambi koyihlo, ukuba angxamele umphefumlo wam nje?
2. Wathi yena kuye, Makube lee oko; akuyi kufa. Uyabona, ubawo akenzi nenkulu into, nencinane into, angayityhileli indlebe yam; ubawo uyifihleleni na ke le nto kum? Akunjalo.
3. Wafunga phezu koko uDavide, wathi, Uyihlo uyazi kakuhle ukuba ùndibabale; ùthi, Makangakwazi oku uYonatan, hleze abe buhlungu. Inene, ehleli nje uYehova, uhleli nje umphefumlo wakho, ngathi sisithuba esinye sokunyathela esiphakathi kwam nokufa.
4. Wathi uYonatan kuDavide, Into oyithethayo umphefumlo wakho, ndiya kuyenza.
