20 UDavide wayesebuya ukubusisa indlu yakhe. UMikhali indodakazi kaSawule waphuma ukumhlangabeza uDavide, wathi: “Yeka udumo lwenkosi ka-Israyeli namuhla, ezambulile namuhla emehlweni ezincekukazi zezinceku zakhe njengomunye wamayiyane, ezambula nokuzambula.”
21 Wayesethi uDavide kuMikhali: “Ngaphambi kukaJehova owangikhetha phezu kukayihlo naphezu kwayo yonke indlu yakhe ukungimisa ukuba ngibe ngumbusi wabantu bakaJehova kwa-Israyeli, yebo, ngaphambi kukaJehova ngathokoza.
22 Ngiyakudeleleka kakhulu kunalokho, ngithotshiswe nasemehlweni ami, kodwa izincekukazi okhulume ngazo ngiyakudunyiswa yizo.”
23 UMikhali indodakazi kaSawule akazalanga mntwana kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwakhe.
