< 1 Sa:miuele 9 >
1 A: ibiele ea mano Gisa da Bediamini egaga fi amoga galu. Gisa da mimogoa dunu galu. A: ibiele da Silo ea mano galu. Gisa ea sosogo fi da Bigoula: de amola fidafa da Afaia.
And there was a man of Benjamin whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a Benjaminite, a mighty man of wealth.
2 Gisa da dunu mano galu, ea dio da Solo. Solo da goi ayeligi galu. Amoga Isala: ili dunu, e amai defele da afae hame galu. Solo da dunu heda: le aligi amola ea da: da: loiwane ba: su da Isala: ili dunu eno huluane baligi.
And he had a son whose name was Saul, choice and comely; and there was not among the children of Israel a comelier person than he; from his shoulders and upward he was higher than any of the people.
3 Solo ea eda Gisa ea dougi da fisi ba: i. Amaiba: le, Gisa da Soloma amane sia: i, “Hawa: hamosu dunu afae lale, dougi fisi hogola masa.”
And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost; and Kish said to Saul his son, Take, I pray, one of the young men with thee, and arise, go seek the asses.
4 Ilia da agolo soge, Ifala: ime sogedili amola Sialaisia soge la: idili amo hohogola asi be dougi da hame ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da baligili Sia: ilime sogebi la: ididili hohogola asi, be dougi da amoga hame ba: i. Amalu ilia da Bediamini ea fifilasu sogebidili hohogola asi be hame ba: i.
And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalishah, but they found [them] not; and they passed through the land of Shaalim, and they were not there; and they passed through the land of Benjamin, and they found [them] not.
5 Ilia da hohogola misini, Safe ea fifilasua amoi doaga: loba, Solo da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “Ninia da nini fifilasua sinidigimu. Ada da dougi yoleiba: le dadawa: lu yolele, bu niniha dadawa: lala ganumu.”
They had come to the land of Zuph when Saul said to his servant that was with him, Come and let us return; lest my father give up the asses, and be anxious about us.
6 Hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole i, “Asa! Wele sia: gai moilai fi dunu afae da dunu ilia ema bagade nodosa amola ea sia: naba, bai ea sia: be liligi huluane defele didisa. Ninia da amo dunuma ahoa: di. Amasea e da dougi ea esalebe soge ninima olelemu.”
And he said to him, Behold now, a man of God is in this city, and the man is held in honour; all that he says comes surely to pass. Let us now go thither: perhaps he will shew us the way that we should go.
7 Solo da amane adole ba: i, “Ninia da ema ahoasea, ninia da adi liligi igili ima: bela: ? Ninia da ha: i manu ninia esaga dialebe afae hamegala, amola ninia da igili imunu liligi afae hamewane.”
And Saul said to his servant, But if we go, what shall we bring the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and we have no present to give to the man of God: what have we?
8 Hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole i, “Na da muni gasa fonobahadi afae gala. Na da amoane imunu, amalu e da dougi ea esalebe soge amo ninima olelemu.”
And the servant answered Saul again and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver; that will I give to the man of God, to tell us our way.
9 Solo da amane adole i, “Dia dawa: i go defeawane! Ninia ahoa: di.” Amalu ilia da hadigi dawa: su dunu ea esalebe soge amoga asi. Ilia da moilai fi amoga doaga: musa: agoloba: le heda: la, uda a: fini ilia hano dila mafiadalebe gousa: i. Ilia da uda a: fini ema adole ba: i. “Ba: la: lusu dunu da moilaiga esalabala?” (amo eso galu ilia da balofede dunuma ‘ba: la: lusu’ sia: su, amola nowa dunu da Godema adole ba: musa: dawa: sea, ilia da amane sia: su, “Ninia da ba: la: lusuma ahoa: di.”)
(In former time in Israel, when a man went to ask counsel of God, he said, Come and let us go to the seer; for he that is now called a Prophet was in former time called a Seer.)
And Saul said to his servant, Well said: come, let us go. So they went to the city where the man of God was.
As they went up the ascent to the city, they met maidens going forth to draw water; and they said to them, Is the seer here?
And they answered them and said, He is; behold, he is before thee: make haste now, for he came to-day to the city; for the people have a sacrifice to-day in the high place.
13 Uda a: fini ilima adole i, “Ma! E da esala! Dafawane! E da dili ahoaba gogusu. Dilia da hedolo ahoasea, dilia da e ba: mu. Dilia da moilai ganodini dasea, dilia e ba: mu. E da wali moilaiga doaga: i, bai dunu ilia da oloda da: iya agolo damana gobele salimu. Amoga hiougi dunu da ha: i mae nane, e doaga: ma: ne ouesala. Bai ea hidadea gobele sala sia: ne gadomu. Dilia waha ahoasea, e da agoloa gado hame heda: i galeawane, dilia da e ba: mu.”
As soon as ye come into the city, ye shall straightway find him, before he goes up to the high place to eat; for the people eat not until he has come, because he blesses the sacrifice; afterwards they eat that are invited. And now go up; for this very day shall ye find him.
14 Amaiba: le, Solo amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilia moilai ganodini sa: i. Ilia ganodini golili daha ba: loba, Sa: miuele da oloda da: iya gobele salimusa: ahoanebe ba: i.
And they went up into the city. As they were coming into the midst of the city, behold, Samuel was coming out towards them, to go up to the high place.
15 Be aya Hina Gode da Sa: miuelema amane sia: i galu,
Now Jehovah had apprised Samuel one day before Saul came, saying,
16 “Aya wewaba Na da Bediamini ea sosogo fi amoga dunu afae dima asunasimu. E da Na dunu fi Isala: ili ouligima: ne ema ilegele amalu ea dialuma da: iya susuligi soga: sima. Amalu, e da Filisidini ilia Isala: ili dunuma osa: la hedasa: besa: le gaga: mu. Na da Isala: ili dunu ilia se nababe ba: i, amola Na da ilia se naba didigia: be amola Nama fidima: ne wele sia: su nabi.”
To-morrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him prince over my people Israel; and he will save my people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon my people, because their cry is come unto me.
17 Sa: miuele da Solo ba: loba, Hina Gode da ema agoane sia: i, “Dunu Na dima adolalu amo da goea! E da Na Isala: ili dunu ouligimu.”
And as Samuel saw Saul, Jehovah answered him, Behold the man of whom I spoke to thee! this man shall rule over my people.
18 Sa: miuele da logo golili dasu gadenene leloba, Solo da e ba: le, ema heda: i, amalu adole ba: i, “Dia sia: ma! Ba: la: lusu dunu da habi esalabala?”
And Saul drew near to Samuel in the midst of the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the seer's house is.
19 Sa: miuele da bu adole i, “Ba: la: lusu dunu da na wea. Nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebiga gado ali hidadea bisili ahoanoma. Ali galu nini gilisili ha: i manu. Aya hahabe na da dia adole ba: i amo huluane na dima adodole ianu, na da ali da logoga masa: ne sia: mu.
And Samuel answered Saul and said, I am the seer: go up before me to the high place, and ye shall eat with me to-day; and to-morrow I will let thee go, and will tell thee all that is in thy heart.
20 Be dougi eso udianaga yolei galu, amo da mae dawa: ma, amo da ba: i dagoi. Be Isala: ili dunu ilia hanai bagadedafa amo da adila: ? Amo da di. Di amola dia ada ea sosogo fi.”
And as for the asses that thou didst lose three days ago, set not thy heart on them; for they are found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel [set]? Is it not on thee, and on all thy father's house?
21 Solo da adole i, “Na da Bediamini fi amogaga fi dunu. Amo fi da Isala: ili fi ganodini sosogo fi fonobahadidafa. Amola na fi ganodini, na sosogo fawane da mimogo hame. Abuliba: le di da nama agoane sia: bela: ?”
And Saul answered and said, Am not I a Benjaminite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel, and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? and why dost thou speak such words to me?
22 Amalalu, Sa: miuele da Solo amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu oule, sesei bagade ganodini oule heda: i. Amalu fisu noga: idafa amo da: iya fima: ne adoi. Amola, sesei ganodini hiougi dunu misi da 30 agoane ba: i.
And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the chamber, and gave them a place at the head of them that were invited; and they were about thirty persons.
23 Sa: miuele da ha: i manu gobesu dunuma amane sia: i, “Gebo hu a: i na dima hamega ligisiagama: ne iasi, amo gaguli misa.”
And Samuel said to the cook, Bring the portion that I gave thee, of which I said to thee, Set it by thee.
24 Amaiba: le ha: i manu gobesu dunu da masele dagai lale, gaguli misini, Solo baia soiyasi. Sa: miuele da amane sia: i “Ba: ma! Hu a: i na digili ligisi dialu amo da goea. Moma! Amo da na digili, dunu na hiougi amo masea amola moma: ne ligisi galu.” Amaiba: le, Solo da Sa: miuelela gilisili amo esoga ha: i mai.
And the cook took up the shoulder, and what was on it, and set [it] before Saul. And he said, Behold that which has been reserved! set it before thee, eat; for against the set time has it been kept for thee, since I said, I will invite the people. So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
25 Ilia da gilisili sia: ne gadosu sogebia amoinini moilaiga gudu sa: ili, ilia da Solo golama: ne diasu figi da: iya wibi fofa: lesi,
And they came down from the high place into the city, and he spoke with Saul upon the roof.
26 amalu Solo da amo gado golai. Hahabedafa, Sa: miuele da Solo diasu gadodili golai dialu, ema wele sia: i “Wa: legadoma! Amola na da di masa: ne asunasimu.” Solo da wa: legadole, e amola Sa: miuele ele galu logoga asi.
And they arose early; and when it was about the dawning of the day, Samuel called to Saul on the roof, saying, Arise, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, into the street.
27 Ilia da asili moilai bega: doaga: beba: le, Sa: miuele da Soloma amane sia: i, “Dia hawa: hamosu dunu da fisili hidadea ahoanoma: ne adoma!” Amalalu hawa: hamosu dunu da hidadea ahoanoba, Sa: miuele da bu sia: i, “Waha wi fonobahadi aligima, na da Gode Ea sia: i amo dima adodole imunu.”
As they were going down to the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Tell the servant to pass on before us (and he passed on), but stand thou still now, that I may cause thee to hear the word of God.
