< 1 Samuel 10 >

1 Unya gikuha ni Samuel ang tibod sa lana, gibubo kini sa ulo ni Saul, ug gihagkan siya. Miingon siya, “Dili ba si Yahweh nagdihog man kanimo aron nga mahimo kang pangulo sa iyang mga kaliwatan?
Then Samuel took a little vial of oil, and poured it on his head. And he kissed him, and said: “Behold, the Lord has anointed you as first ruler over his inheritance. And you shall free his people from the hands of their enemies, who are all around them. And this shall be a sign for you that God has anointed you as ruler:
2 Inig biya nimo kanako karong adlawa, makakita ka ug duha ka tawo duol sa lubnganan ni Raquel, diha sa ginsakopan sa Benjamin didto sa Zelza. Moingon sila kanimo, 'Ang mga asno nga inyong gipangita nakaplagan na. Karon ang imong amahan wala na nagpakabana sa asno ug nabalaka na bahin kanimo, nga nag-ingon, “Unsa man ang angay kong buhaton sa akong anak?'”
When you will have departed from me this day, you will find two men beside the sepulcher of Rachel, in the parts of Benjamin to the south. And they will say to you: ‘The donkeys have been found, which you had been seeking as you traveled. And your father, forgetting about the donkeys, has been anxious for you, and he says, “What shall I do about my son?”’
3 Unya gikan didto mopadayon ka, ug makaabot ka sa kahoy nga tugas sa Tabor. Mahimamat mo ang tulo ka tawo nga moadto sa Dios sa Betel, ang usa nagdala ug tulo ka nating kanding, ang usa nagdala ug tulo ka buok nga tinapay, ug ang usa nagdala ug nagdala ug bino nga gisulod sa panit nga sudlanan,
And when you will have departed from there, and will have traveled farther, and will have arrived at the oak of Tabor, in that place three men, who are going up to God at Bethel, will find you. One will be bringing three young goats, and another three loaves of bread, and another will be carrying a bottle of wine.
4 Timbayaon ka nila ug hatagan ug duha ka tinapay, nga imong dawaton gikan sa ilang mga kamot.
And when they will have greeted you, they will give you two loaves. And you shall accept these from their hand.
5 Pagkahuman niana, moadto ka sa bungtod sa Dios, diin atua nahimutang ang kampo sa mga Filistihanon. Sa pag-abot nimo sa siyudad, masugatan nimo ang pundok sa mga propeta nga nanglugsong gikan sa hataas nga dapit ug aduna silay dala nga alpa, tambor, plawta ug lira; managna sila.
After these things, you shall arrive at the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines is. And when you will have entered the city there, you will meet a company of prophets, descending from the high place, with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp before them, and they will be prophesying.
6 Ang Espiritu ni Yahweh mokunsad diha kanimo, ug managna ka uban kanila, ug mabag-o ka ingon nga lahi nga tawo.
And the Spirit of the Lord will spring up within you. And you shall prophesy with them, and you shall be changed into another man.
7 Karon, kung kini nga mga ilhanan mahitabo kanimo, buhata ang bisan unsa nga maayong buhaton, kay ang Dios uban kanimo.
Therefore, when these signs will have happened to you, do whatever your hand will find, for the Lord is with you.
8 Pag-una kanako didto sa Gilgal. Unya mosunod ako kanimo aron maghalad ug mga halad sinunog ug maghalad ug mga halad sa pakigdait. Hulata ako sulod sa pito ka adlaw hangtod nga maabot ako ug ipakita ko kanimo ang angay mong buhaton.”
And you shall descend before me into Gilgal, (for I will descend to you), so that you may offer an oblation, and may immolate victims of peace. For seven days, you shall wait, until I come to you, and reveal to you what you should do.”
9 Sa pagtalikod na ni Saul aron sa pagbiya kang Samuel, ang Dios naghatag kaniya ug bag-ong kasingkasing. Unya ang tanang mga ilhanan nahitabo nianang adlawa.
And so, when he had turned his shoulder, so that he might go away from Samuel, God changed him to another heart. And all these signs occurred on that day.
10 Sa dihang miabot sila sa bungtod, adunay pundok sa mga propeta nga misugat kaniya, ug ang Espiritu sa Dios mikunsad kaniya busa nanagna siya uban kanila.
And they arrived at the above-stated hill, and behold, a group of prophets met him. And the Spirit of the Lord leapt up within him, and he prophesied in their midst.
11 Sa dihang ang mga tawo nga nakaila kaniya nakakita nga nanagna siya uban ang mga propeta, ang mga tawo nagsultihanay, “Unsay nahitabo sa anak nga lalaki ni Kis? Usa na ba ka propeta karon si Saul?”
Then all those who had known him yesterday and the day before, seeing that he was with the prophets, and that he was prophesying, said to one other: “What is this thing that has happened to the son of Kish? Could Saul also be among the prophets?”
12 Ang usa ka tawo nga anaa sa samang dapit ang mitubag, “Ug kinsa man ilang amahan?” Tungod niini, nahimo kining usa ka panultihon, “Usa na ba diay si Saul sa mga propeta?”
And one would respond to the other, saying, “And who is their father?” Because of this, it turned into a proverb, “Could Saul also be among the prophets?”
13 Sa dihang nahuman siya ug panagna, miadto siya sa hataas nga dapit.
Then he ceased to prophesy, and he went to the high place.
14 Unya ang uyoan ni Saul miingon kaniya ug sa iyang sulugoon, “Hain man kamo gikan?” Unya mitubag siya, “Nangita kami sa mga asno; kay wala man namo nakit-an, miadto kami kang Samuel,”
And the uncle of Saul said to him, and to his servant, “Where did you go?” And they responded: “To seek the donkeys. But when we did not find them, we went to Samuel.”
15 Miingon ang uyoan ni Saul, “Palihog sultihi ko kung unsay giingon ni Samuel kanimo.”
And his uncle said to him, “Tell me what Samuel said to you.”
16 Si Saul mitubag sa iyang uyoan,” Misulti siya kanamo nga nakaplagan na ang mga asno.” Apan wala niya siya sultihi mahitungod sa mga butang sa gingharian, nga gisugilon ni Samuel.
And Saul said to his uncle, “He told us that the donkeys would be found.” But the word about the kingdom, which Samuel had spoken to him, he did not reveal to him.
17 Karon gipatawag ni Samuel ang katawhan diha sa atubangan ni Yahweh sa Mizpa.
And Samuel called the people together, to the Lord at Mizpah.
18 Miingon siya sa katawhan sa Israel, “Mao kini ang giingon ni Yahweh, ang Dios sa Israel: 'Akong gipagawas ang Israel gikan sa Ehipto, ug giluwas ko kamo gikan sa kamot sa mga Ehiptohanon, ug gikan sa mga kamot sa tanang mga gingharian nga nagdaogdaog kaninyo.'
And he said to the sons of Israel: “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: I led Israel away from Egypt, and I rescued you from the hand of the Egyptians, and from the hand of all the kings who were afflicting you.
19 Apan karong adlawa gisalikway ninyo ang inyong Dios, nga maoy nagluwas kaninyo gikan sa inyong mga katalagman ug mga kalisdanan; ug miingon kamo kaniya, 'Pagpili ug hari alang kanamo.' Karon pagtapok kamo sumala sa inyong tribo ug sa inyong mga banay sa atubangan ni Yahweh.”
But today you have rejected your God, who alone saved you from all your evils and tribulations. And you have said: ‘By no means! Instead, appoint a king over us.’ Now therefore, stand in the sight of the Lord, by your tribes and by your families.”
20 Busa gipaduol ni Samuel ang tanang tribo sa Israel, ug ang tribo ni Benjamin maoy napili.
And Samuel brought near all the tribes of Israel, and the lot fell upon the tribe of Benjamin.
21 Unya iyang gipaduol ang tribo ni Benjamin sumala sa ilang mga banay; unya ang banay nga Matrihanon mao ang napili; ug si Saul nga anak ni Kis mao ang napili. Apan sa dihang nangita sila kaniya, wala siya makaplagi.
And he brought near the tribe of Benjamin, with its families, and the lot fell upon the family of Matri. And then it went to Saul, the son of Kish. Therefore, they sought him, but he was not found.
22 Unya ang katawhan buot pang mangutana sa Dios, “Anaa pa bay laing tawo nga moabot?” Si Yahweh mitubag, “Mitago siya luyo sa mga kasangkapan.” Unya nanagan sila ug gikuha si Saul gikan didto.
And after these things, they consulted the Lord as to whether he would soon arrive there. And the Lord responded, “Behold, he is hidden at home.”
23 Unya pagtindog niya taliwala diha sa katawhan, labing taas gayod siya kaysa ni bisan kinsang tawo tungod kay ang mga tawo tupong lamang sa iyang abaga.
And so they ran and brought him there. And he stood in the midst of the people, and he was taller than the entire people, from the shoulders upward.
24 Unya miingon si Samuel sa katawhan, “Nakita ba ninyo ang tawo nga gipili ni Yahweh? Wala gayoy sama kaniya sa tanang katawhan. Unya ang tibuok katawhan misinggit, “Mabuhi ang hari!”
And Samuel said to all the people: “Certainly, you see the one whom the Lord has chosen, that there is not anyone like him among all the people.” And all the people cried out and said, “Long live the king!”
25 Unya si Samuel misulti sa katawhan sa mga pamaagi ug sa mga pamalaod sa pagkahari, ug gisulat kini sa basahon, ug gibutang sa atubangan ni Yahweh. Unya gipapauli ni Samuel ang katawhan sa tagsa-tagsa nila ka panimalay.
Then Samuel spoke to the people the law of the kingdom, and he wrote it in a book, and he stored it in the sight of the Lord. And Samuel dismissed all the people, each one to his own house.
26 Mipauli usab si Saul sa iyang balay sa Gabaon, ug kauban niya ang pipila ka kusgan nga mga lalaki, kansang kasingkasing gihikap sa Dios.
And then Saul went away to his own house at Gibeah. And a portion of the army, whose hearts had been touched by God, went away with him.
27 Apan pipila ka bugalbugalon nga mga tawo ang miingon, “Unsaon man niining tawhana pagluwas kanato?” Kining mga tawhana ang mitamay kang Saul ug wala nila siya gihatagan ug bisan unsang gasa. Apan si Saul nagpakahilom lamang.
Yet the sons of Belial said, “How could this one be able to save us?” And they despised him, and they brought him no presents. But he pretended not to hear them.
