¹⁶Ipapo mhare idzo nhatu dzakapasanura napakati pehondo yavaFirisitia, vakandoteka mvura patsime reBheterehemu, riri pasuwo, vakaitora vakauya nayo kuna Dhavhidhi; asi iye wakaramba kuimwa, akaidururira kuna Jehovha.

¹⁶Huchi in sepaih hangsan thumte'n Philistia sepaihte a paltan ua, kulh kongkhak kiang a Beth-lehem tuileh a va tawi ua, a tawi ua, David kiang ah a paipih uh: himahleh a na dawn nuamkei a, TOUPA a ding in a bungkhe zaw hi.
