13 Koko Saolo akawatɛ ate: “Ndooko onto lahomba ndjakema ɛlɔ,+ nɛ dia Jehowa ambotshungola Isariyɛlɛ ɛlɔ.”
14 L’ɔkɔngɔ diko, Samuɛlɛ akayotɛ anto ate: “Nyoyete totshu la Ngilingalɛ+ dia nyomotoshikikɛ lowandji.”+
15 Ko anto tshɛ wakatshu otsha la Ngilingalɛ ndo lam’akawakome la Ngilingalɛ, vɔ wakadje Saolo nkumekanga la ntondo ka Jehowa. Oma laasɔ, vɔ wakalambola elambo w’osanga laawɔ la ntondo ka Jehowa,+ ko Saolo nde l’ase Isariyɛlɛ tshɛ wakasale fɛtɛ l’ɔngɛnɔngɛnɔ+ w’efula.
