Ombiimbeli oya ti kutya Goliat okwa li “gwomuthika gwoometa ndatu konyala.” (1 Samuel 17:4) Omatoloko galwe gOmbiimbeli ogu ulike kutya Goliat okwa li e na uule woometa 2.9. Yalwe ohaye shi pataneke kutya Goliat ka li nando e na uule wu thike mpoka, ihe tala kwaashika tashi landula: Pethimbo lyonale, omuntu ngono a li omule e vule ayehe okwa li e na uule woometa 2.7.

Opu na ethimbo limwe aakonakoni ya li taya kambadhala okutala ko ehokololo lyomukwaniilwa David kaali shi lyoshili, ihe inaye shi pondola. Aalafululi yiikulunima oya li yi itsu emanya lyonale lya nyolwa oohapu ndhoka dha tolokwa tadhi ti kutya “egumbo lyaDavid.” Natango, Jesus Kristus okwa popi kutya David omuntu gwolela.

Opo ihe oku ulike handiyaka yesilu e ta ti: ‘Kolumoho lwoye oku na omakulukuma gaSoko.’ Okwa tanauka e ta ti: ‘Handiyaka yokolulyo lwoye oku na omakulukuma gaAseka. Aafilisti oya li ya yungu ontanda pokati kaSoko naAseka lwopiikulundundu mbyoka mwa taalela. Onkene otashi vulika twa thikameni mpoka Aaisraeli ya li ya yunga ontanda.’ Opo ihe otwa kuluka ko tu uka mesilu, otwa taaguluka okapompolonga hoka olundji haka kala ka kukuta, noka li ku udha omamanya. Kanda li po poshiningwanima, ihe David onda fa owala ndi mu wete sho ta toola uumanya utano wa thethenga, moka a kutha kamwe hoka a dhipagitha nako Goliat.” Omutalelipo ngoka naye okwa li a kumwa, ngaashi yalwe oyendji ya li ya kuminwa noonkondo uuyelele wu shi okwiinekelwa mboka wa popiwa mOmbiimbeli.
