Basi Waisraeli walikuwa wakisema, “Je, mnaona jinsi mtu huyu anavyoendelea kujitokeza. Hujitokeza ili kutukana Israeli. Mfalme atatoa utajiri mwingi kwa yule mtu atakayemuua. Pia atamwoza binti yake na atasamehe jamaa ya baba yake kulipa kodi katika Israeli.”

Context
23Alipokuwa akisema nao, Goliathi, yule Mfilisti shujaa kutoka Gathi, akajitokeza mbele ya safu zake na kupiga ile kelele yake ya kawaida ya matukano, naye Daudi akayasikia. 24Waisraeli walipomwona yule mtu, wote wakamkimbia kwa woga mkuu. 25Basi Waisraeli walikuwa wakisema, “Je, mnaona jinsi mtu huyu anavyoendelea kujitokeza. Hujitokeza ili kutukana Israeli. Mfalme atatoa utajiri mwingi kwa yule mtu atakayemuua. Pia atamwoza binti yake na atasamehe jamaa ya baba yake kulipa kodi katika Israeli.” 26Daudi akauliza watu waliokuwa wamesimama karibu naye, “Je, atafanyiwa nini mtu atakayemuua huyu Mfilisti na kuondoa aibu hii katika Israeli? Ni nani huyu Mfilisti asiyetahiriwa hata atukane majeshi ya Mungu aliye hai?” 27Wakarudia yale yaliyokuwa yamesemwa na kumwambia kuwa, “Hili ndilo atakalotendewa mtu yule atakayemuua.”
