1 Sa:miuele 8
1 Sa: miuele da da: i hamobeba: le, e da egefela Isala: ili fi ilima fofada: su dunu ilegei.
And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
2 Ea magobo mano ea dio da Youele amola amo baligia mano ea dio da Abaidia. Youele amola Abaidia ela da Biasiba moilai amo ganodini bisisu dunu esalu.
Now the name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah. They were judges in Beersheba.
3 Be elea da eda ea hamoma: ne adodigi amane hame hamosu. Elea da munima fawane bagade hanai galu. Amaiba: le ela ogogole hano sulugili amalu fofada: nanu molole dafawaneyale hame hawa: hamoi.
And his sons did not walk in his ways, but turned aside after dishonest gain, and took bribes, and perverted justice.
4 Amalu, Isala: ili ouligisu hina ilia da gilisilalu, Sa: miuelema afia: i, La: ima moilaiga.
Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel to Ramah.
5 Amalu ema amane sia: i, “Ba: ma! Di da da: i hamosa, amola dia mano ilia da dia hamobe amo defele hame hamosa. Amaiba: le, hina bagade dunu afae nini ouligilaloma: ne dia ilegema. Amasea sogebi eno ilia hina bagade galebe, amo defele ninia da hina bagade esaloma: ne.”
And they said to him, Behold, thou are old, and thy sons do not walk in thy ways. Now make for us a king to judge us like all the nations.
6 Sa: miuele da ilia hina bagade eno lamusa: adole ba: beba: le, da: i dione ougi. Amaiba: le, e da Godema sia: ne gadoi.
But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed to Jehovah.
7 Amola Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Dunu ilia dima sia: be huluane noga: le nabima. Ilia da dima hame higa: i. Be ilia Hina Bagade da Na. Amaiba: le ilia da Nama higasa.
And Jehovah said to Samuel, Hearken to the voice of the people in all that they say to thee, for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them.
8 Musa: ganini, Na da ilia Idibidi sogega esalu amo fadegalesiliba, ilia da nama baligifa: le, ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadosu. Amola musa: ilia da nama agoane hamosu, amo defele ilia da wali dima hamosa.
According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even to this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also to thee.
9 Amaiba: le ilia sia: nabima. Be ilia nabima: ne, gasa bagade sisasu ilima sia: ma. Amola ilia hina bagade ea ilima hamomu hou noga: le olelema.”
Now therefore hearken to their voice. However thou shall protest solemnly to them, and shall show them the manner of the king who shall reign over them.
10 Sa: miuele da dunu ema hina bagade eno lamusa: adola masu, ilima Gode Ea ema sia: i liligi huluane alofele i.
And Samuel told all the words of Jehovah to the people who asked of him a king.
11 “Dilia hina bagade ilegemu da dilima agoane hamomu,” Sa: miuele da dili i. “E da dilia mano ili ea dadi gagui dunu hamoma: mu amola oda da ea gegesu sa: liode ouligisu dunu ba: mu, amola oda ea gegesu hosiga fila heda: i dunu ba: mu. Amola oda da ea sa: liode bisili heda: le hehenasu dunu ba: mu.
And he said, This will be the manner of the king who shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them to him for his chariots, and to be his horsemen, and they shall run before his chariots.
12 E da dunu oda ouligisu hamomusa: ilegelesili, amoea dunu 1,000 agoane ouligima: mu, amola oda da dunu 50 amo ouligima: mu. E da dunu oda ea moi gidinasuga dogoma: mu amola ea ha: i manu sagai faima: mu. E da dunu oda ea gegesu dadi debema: mu amola sa: liode hamoma: mu.
And he will appoint them to him for captains of thousands, and captains of fifties. And he will set some to plow his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and the instruments of his chariots.
13 Dilia uda mano ilia da gabusiga: na manoma hahamomu amola Ea ha: i manu gobele iasu hamomu amola ha: i manu momagelalumu amo ilegemu.
And he will take your daughters to be perfumers, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
14 E da dilia osobo noga: idafa, efe bugi amola olife bugi amo lale, ea eagene ouligisu dunu ilima imunu.
And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
15 E da dilia gagoma amola waini fage amo nabuane fifili, afadafa lale dilia fofada: su ouligisu, amola eno ouligisu dunu iligili imunu.
And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
16 E da dilia hawa: hamosu dunu amola dilia hanaidafa bulamagau amola dougi lale, ea hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne lamu.
And he will take your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and your finest young men, and your donkeys, and put them to his work.
17 E da dilia ohe fofoi nabuane momogili afadafa udigili lamu. Amola dilia da bu ea hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: mu.
He will take the tenth of your flocks. And ye shall be his servants.
18 Amo eso da doaga: sea dilia da da: i dione egagia: mu amo da hina bagade dunu dilia hanaiga labe amo ia baiga, be Gode da dilia egabe hame nabimu.”
And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king whom ye shall have chosen you, and Jehovah will not answer you in that day.
19 Be Isala: ili dunu ilia da Sa: miuelema nabasu hou hame hamoi, be amane sia: i, “Hame! Ninia da hina bagade lamu hanai.
But the people refused to hearken to the voice of Samuel. And they said, No, but we will have a king over us
20 Amasea ninia da sogebi eno ili agoai defele ba: mu, ninia hina bagade hi fawane da nini ouligili, amola hifawane bisili gegena afufumu.”
that we also may be like all the nations, and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
21 Sa: miuele da ilia sia: huluanedafa noga: le nabalu bu asili Hina Godema alofele i.
And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the ears of Jehovah.
22 Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Ili sia: i defele ilima hina bagade ima.” Amalu Sa: miuele da dunu huluane da ili fifilasua afia: ma: ne adoi.
And Jehovah said to Samuel, Hearken to their voice, and make for them a king. And Samuel said to the men of Israel, Go ye every man to his city.
