Context
1Bwana akamwambia Samweli, “Utamlilia Sauli mpaka lini, maadamu nimemkataa asiendelee kuwa mfalme juu ya Israeli? Jaza pembe yako mafuta, ushike njia uende; ninakutuma kwa Yese huko Bethlehemu. Nimemchagua mmoja wa wanawe kuwa mfalme.” 2Lakini Samweli akasema, “Nitakwendaje? Sauli atasikia juu ya jambo hili na ataniua.”
Bwana akamwambia, “Chukua mtamba wa ngʼombe na useme, ‘Nimekuja kumtolea Bwana dhabihu.’ 3Mwalike Yese aje kwenye dhabihu, nami nitakuonyesha utakalofanya. Utamtia mafuta kwa ajili yangu yule nitakayekuonyesha.” 4Samweli akafanya kile Bwana alichosema. Alipofika Bethlehemu, wazee wa mji wakatetemeka walipomlaki. Wakauliza, “Je, umekuja kwa amani?”
