2 Ke kaloku kwabakho ndoda ithile yaseTsora, yomlibo wamaDan, egama linguManowa, umkayo eludlolo, engazali.
3 Kwabonakala isithunywa sikaYehova kumfazi lowo, sathi kuye, Yabona, uludlolo wena, akuzali; ke uya kumitha, uzale unyana.
4 Ke ngoko khawuzigcine, uze ungaseli wayini nasiselo sinxilisayo; ungadli nanye into eyinqambi.
5 Ngokuba uyabona, uya kumitha, uzale unyana; isitshetshe sokucheba asiyi kusondezwa entlokweni yakhe; ngokuba le nkwenkwe iya kuba ngumahlulwa kaThixo kwasesizalweni. Yiyo ke eya kuqala ukuwasindisa amaSirayeli esandleni samaFilisti.
6 Weza lo mfazi, wathi kwindoda yakhe, Kufike kum umntu kaThixo, imbonakalo yakhe injengembonakalo yesithunywa sikaThixo, isoyikeka kunene; kodwa andimbuzanga apho avela khona, naye akandixelelanga igama lakhe.
7 Wathi kum, Uyabona, uya kumitha, uzale unyana; ke ngoko uze ungaseli wayini nasiselo sinxilisayo, ungadli nanye into eyinqambi; ngokuba le nkwenkwe iya kuba ngumahlulwa kaThixo, kwasesizalweni, kude kube ngumhla wokufa kwayo.
8 Wathandaza ke uManowa kuYehova, wathi, Camagu, Nkosi yam; umntu kaThixo owamthumayo makakhe abuye eze kuthi, asifundise ukuba simthini na umntwana oya kuzalwa.
