4 Lakini wakulu wa Wafilisiti wamgevuzikila ng'hani Akishi, wamulongela, “Mbweze yakakale kuja kuumgwelele. Halondigwa yachole na siye kuing'hondo, kamba twahachola na heyo kodaha kutuhinduka kuing'hondo. Vino kotenda choni ili yatogoligwe na mndewa wake kamba siyo kwa kugakanha mapala ga wanhu zetu?” 5 Vino, ino siyo Daudi ija watwanzi wakala okwimba na kucheza,
“Sauli kakoma maelufu gake,
