Xenni ikkar-dd ijj n weɣrim x Israil uca iɣarr Dawud ḥima ad iḥseb Israil.

Xenni inna Yuwab: “Iři ad yarni SIDI di řgens nnes am iǧa řexxu ɛad mya n tseqqar. Ma war ǧin marra, a sidi inu ajeǧid, d imsexxaren n sidi inu? Mayemmi i zzayi ittmeẓri sidi inu man aya? Mayemmi ɣa issarbu Israil amarwas x yixef nnes?” 
Maca awař n ujeǧid ijhed x Yuwab u Yuwab iffeɣ. Ikka marra Israil uca iɛqeb-dd ɣar Urcalim. 
Yuwab iwca i Dawud řqedd n řeḥsab n řgens am ikmeř. Marra Israil dayes milyun u-mya-ařef n yeryazen inni izemmaren x ssif u Yahuda dayes arebɛa-mya u-sebɛin-ařef n yeryazen nni izemmaren x ssif. 
Maca ayt n Lawi d Binyamin war ten iḥsib ca, maɣar awař n ujeǧid tuɣa d aɛiffi i Yuwab. 
Tamesřact-a tuɣa d taɛeffant di tiṭṭawin n AREBBI uca Netta iřqef Israil s ict n jjriḥect. 
Xenni inna Dawud i AREBBI: “Necc xḍiɣ xak aṭṭas, s minzi necc ggiɣ aya. Xenni řexxu, kkes řmuɛṣiyyet x umsexxar nnec, minzi necc ggiɣ s tubbuheřya aṭṭas.” 
Issiweř SIDI ɣar Jad, amwařaw n Dawud, inna: 
“Uyur, siweř ɣar Dawud, ini: ‘Ammu i iqqar SIDI: Ad ac ssarseɣ třata n tmesřayin. Ixḍar ict zzaysent i cek. Ad ac tt ggeɣ.’” 
Jad yusa-dd ɣar Dawud, inna as: ‘Ammu i iqqar SIDI: ‘Ixḍar cek:

Xenni řexxu, xzar, mammec ɣa yarreɣ x wenni d ayi dd-issekken.’” 
Xenni inna Dawud i Jad: “Necc ttwaḥṣareɣ aṭṭas, maca ejj ayi ad wḍiɣ deg ufus n SIDI, maɣar arreḥmet nnes d tameqqrant aṭṭas, war ttegg ad wḍiɣ deg ufus n bnadem.” 
Uca issiweḍ SIDI ṭṭaɛun x Israil uca wḍan sebɛin-ařef n yeryazen zi Israil. 
Issekk AREBBI lmalak ɣar Urcalim ḥima ad t iḍeyyeɛ. Umi ibda netta ad tt iḍeyyeɛ, iẓra i-tt SIDI uca indem x tuɛeffna, inna i lmalak n uḍeyyeɛ: “Cfa, sehwa řexxu afus nnec!” Tuɣa lmalak n SIDI ibedd ɣar unedrar n Uyabusi Urnan. 
Umi issgeɛɛed Dawud tiṭṭawin nnes, iẓra lmalak n SIDI ibedd jar temmurt d ujenna am iṭṭef ufus nnes ssif, isswiẓẓeḍ i-t x Urcalim. Xenni iwḍa Dawud d imeqqranen n řgens s uɣembub nsen ɣar temmurt am tuɣa řeḥḥfen s txuncay n wecḍan. 
Uca inna Dawud i AREBBI: “Ma war iǧi d necc i innan aqa ittxeṣṣa ad ḥesben řgens? Wah, d necc i tuɣa ixḍan d necc i iggin řmuɛṣiyyet aṭṭas, maca uǧi-ya, min ggint? A SIDI, AREBBI inu, ejj ad yiři ufus nnec i tecti ɣari u ɣar taddart n baba, war iǧi maca ɣar řgens nnec.” 
Xenni inna lmalak n SIDI i Jad, ad yini i Dawud belli ittxeṣṣa i Dawud ad igeɛɛed ḥima ad issbedd ijj n uɛalṭar i SIDI x unedrar n Uyabusi Arnan. 
Uca Dawud igeɛɛed ɛlaḥsab awař n Jad nni issiweř s Yisem n SIDI. 
Uca inneqřeb-dd Arnan, iẓra lmalak. Arebɛa n warrawen nnes i tuɣa ɣares iǧan, nnuffaren. Urnan tuɣa issarwat irden. 
Yiweḍ Dawud ɣar Arnan uca issgeɛɛed Arnan tiṭṭawin, iẓra Dawud. Xenni iffeɣ-dd zeg unedrar uca ibendeq zzat i Dawud s uɣembub nnes ɣar temmurt. 
Inna Dawud i Arnan: “Ewc ayi andrar, ḥima ad xas bniɣ ijj n uɛalṭar i SIDI. Ewc ayi amcan s ttaman nnes imun, ḥima ad tbedd ticti-ya di řgens.” 
Arnan inna i Dawud: “Ksi t i cek uca ad yegg sidi inu ajeǧid min iǧan d lemliḥ di tiṭṭawin nnes. Xzar, ad wceɣ ifunasen-a am tɣarṣa n wecmaḍ, u tiřwiḥin itteḥřuǧuḍen i usarwet d ukeccuḍ i tmessi d irden, ad ten wceɣ i tewhibt n řɣiǧet. Necc ad wceɣ aya marra.” 
Maca inna ujeǧid Dawud i Arnan: “Lla, necc xseɣ nican ad t sɣeɣ s ttaman nnes ikmeř, minzi min iǧan nnec war t kessiɣ i SIDI, ḥima ammu i ɣa wehhbeɣ taɣarṣt n wecmaḍ i SIDI břa ad tt xeǧṣeɣ.” 
Ammu i iwca Dawud i Arnan i wemcan nni ijj n řewzen n setta-mya ciqlu n wureɣ. 
Dawud issbedd dinni ijj n uɛalṭar i SIDI uca yiwi xas tiɣarṣa n wecmaḍ d tewhibin n řɣiǧet. Netta iřaɣa i SIDI u wanita yarra-dd xas s tmessi zeg ujenna x uɛalṭar n wecmaḍ. 
Inna SIDI i lmalak maḥend d yarr ssif deg ufurru n weɣřaf nnes. 
Di řweqt nni, umi iẓra Dawud aqa SIDI yarra-dd xas x unedrar n Uyabusi Arnan, yiwi din tiɣarṣa. 
Di řweqt nni tuɣa Tazeddiɣt n SIDI, tenni tuɣa igga Musa di řexřa, d uɛalṭar i tɣarṣa n wecmaḍ x řgeɛɛdet n Jibɛun. 
Dawud maca war izemmar ad din yuyur ḥima ad yarzu x AREBBI, maɣar tuɣa teřqef i-t tiggʷudi zi ssif n lmalak n SIDI.
