40 Izinceku zikaDavide sezifikile ku-Abigayili eKarmeli, zakhuluma kuye, zathi: “UDavide usithumile kuwe ukuba akuthathe, ube ngumkakhe.”
41 Wasukuma, wakhothama, ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi, wathi: “Bheka, incekukazi yakho mayibe yisigqilakazi sokugeza izinyawo zezinceku zenkosi yami.”
42 U-Abigayili washesha wasuka, wakhwela imbongolo kanye nezintombi zakhe ezazihamba naye; wazilandela izithunywa zikaDavide, waba ngumkakhe.
43 UDavide wathatha no-Ahinohama waseJizreyeli; baba ngomkakhe bobabili.
44 Kepha uSawule wayesemnike uPaliti indodana kaLayishi waseGalimi uMikhali indodakazi yakhe.
