12 Neera na7ay Abeneerinne Saa7ola na7ay Iyabuste asay Mahinaymape Gaba7oona bidosona. 13 Xaruya na7ay Iyo7aabinne Dawita asay Gaba7oona olla haatha matan entara gahetidosona. Issi cugay olla haathaafe hefinthan uttin, issi cugay hafinthan uttis. 14 Abeneeri Iyo7aabako, “Ane hintefenne nuupe panthati dendidi, nu sinthan oleto” yaagis.

22 Qassika Abeneeri, “Taani nena sa7ara gathada oythonna de7ishin, tana yedetheysa agga! Nena wodhada taani ne ishaa Iyo7aaba som7uwa waatada xeellanee?” yaagidi waassis. 23 Shin Asaheeli iya yedetheysa aggonna ixis. Hessa gisho, Abeneeri toora guye yeddidi, Asaheela uluwa caddin tooray zokora kanthidi keyis. Asaheeli he bessan kundidi hayqis; Asaheeli hayqida bessaa gakida asa ubbay yan eqis.

24 Shin Iyo7aabinne Abisi Abeneera gooddidosona; awi wulliya wode Gaba7oona mela biittako efiya ogiyan Gaadape sintha baggara de7iya Ama zumako gakidosona. 25 Biniyaame asay Abeneerako shiiqidosona; issi cuga medhidi issi zumaa bolla eqidosona. 26 Abeneeri Iyo7aaba xeegidi, “Merinaw oletishe daaneyee? Haysa wursethay camo gidanaysa neeni erikii? Ne asay, banta ishata gooddeysa aggana mela ayis odikii?” yaagis.

27 Iyo7aabi, “De7o Xoossay ero! Neeni odonnaba gidiyako ta asay ba ishata sa7i wontana gakanaw goodda aggokona” yaagis. 28 Iyo7aabi moyze punnin asa ubbay essis.
