1 Wa fiyah naadum waahid min balad Banyaamiin usmah Khiich.
Wa aayich fi l‑balad di wa hu siid al‑maal.
Wa hu wileed Abiyiil wileed Saruur wileed Bakuurat wileed Afiyah.

14 Humman talaʼo ale l‑hille.
Wa wakit daakhliin fi lubb al‑hille,

Amsahah wa darrijah le yabga kabiir le chaʼabi Bani Israaʼiil wa yinajjiihum min al‑Filistiyiin.
Achaan ana chift taʼab chaʼabi wa siraakhhum wassalaani. »
17 Wa wakit Samuwiil chaaf Chaawuul,

Humman anlago.
Wa l‑muna hana chaʼab Bani Israaʼiil da,

21 Wa Chaawuul radda wa gaal :
« Ana ma min gabiilat Banyaamiin walla ?
Wa aniina min al‑gabaayil al‑dugaag hana Bani Israaʼiil !
Wa khachum beeti kulla l‑sakhayyar fi khuchuum buyuut Banyaamiin.

24 Wa l‑khaddaam jaab al‑gaayme wa kulla l‑laham al‑foogha wa khattaaha giddaam Chaawuul.
Wa Samuwiil gaal :
« Alfaddal.

Khuttah giddaamak wa aakul.
» Wa fi l‑yoom da,

Wa Samuwiil hajja maʼa Chaawuul fi raas beetah.
Samuwiil addaah le Chaawuul

27 Wa wakit garrabo yamurgu min al‑hille,
Samuwiil gaal le Chaawuul :
« Guul le khaddaamak khalli yigaddim.
» Wa hu gaddam.
Wa Samuwiil gaal le Chaawuul :
« Hassaʼ da,
