1 Samueli 10

1 Ndipo Samueli anatenga botolo la mafuta nathira mafutawo pa mutu wa Sauli ndipo anapsompsona nati, “Yehova wakudzoza kuti ukhale mtsogoleri wa anthu ake, Aisraeli. Iwe udzalamulira anthu a Yehova ndiponso udzawapulumutsa mʼmanja mwa adani awo owazungulira. Chizindikiro chakuti Yehova wakudzoza kuti ukhale mtsogoleri wa anthu ake ndi ichi:

Afei, Samuel faa ngotoa a ngo wɔ mu hwie guu Saulo tirim, few nʼafono ho, kae se, “Mereyɛ eyi de akyerɛ sɛ Awurade apaw wo sɛ ɔkannifo ama ne man Israel.

2 Ukachoka pano lero lino, udzakumana ndi amuna awiri kufupi ndi manda a Rakele ku Zeliza mʼmalire mwa dziko la Benjamini ndipo adzakuwuza kuti, ‘Abulu amene munkafunafuna aja apezeka. Ndipo tsopano abambo ako asiya kuganiza za abulu ndipo akudera nkhawa za iwe.’ Iwo akufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi ndidzachita chiyani mmene mwana wanga sakuoneka?’”

Sɛ wugyaw me ha nnɛ na worekɔ a, wubehyia mmarima baanu wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn Rahel da a ɛwɔ Selsa a ɛbɛn Benyamin hye no. Wɔbɛka akyerɛ wo se, ‘Mfurum a mutuu ho anammɔn kɔhwehwɛɛ wɔn no, wɔahu wɔn. Enti mprempren, wʼagya agyae wɔn ho dwene, na mmom, mo ho na ɔredwen. Ɔtaa bisa se, “Obi ahu me babarima no ana?”’

3 “Ndipo udzapyola pamenepo ndi kufika ku mtengo wa thundu wa ku Tabori. Kumeneko udzakumana ndi anthu atatu akupita kukapereka nsembe ku Nyumba ya Mulungu ku Beteli. Mmodzi adzakhala atanyamula ana ambuzi atatu, wina atanyamula malofu atatu a buledi, ndi winayo atanyamula thumba la vinyo.

“Mudu dua kɛse bi a esi Tabor ho a, mubehyia mmarima baasa bi a wofi Bet-El rekɔ akɔsom Onyankopɔn. Ɔbaako so mmirekyi mma abiɛsa, ɔbaako nso so brodo mua abiɛsa, na nea ɔka ho no nso so nsa aboa nhoma kotoku baako.

4 Adzakupatsa moni ndi kukupatsa malofu awiri a buledi. Iwe udzalandire bulediyo.

Wobekyia mo, na wɔama mo brodo mua abien, na ɛsɛ sɛ mugye fi wɔn nkyɛn.

5 “Pambuyo pake, udzafike ku Gibeyati-Elohimu, kumene kuli gulu la ankhondo la Afilisti. Pamene ukuyandikira mzindawo, udzakumana ndi gulu la aneneri akutsika kuchokera ku phiri, akuyimba zeze, ngʼoma, zitoliro ndi pangwe, ndiponso akulosera.

“Na sɛ mudu Onyankopɔn koko a ɛwɔ Gibea a Filistifo nsraadɔm abɔ pem wɔ hɔ no a, mubehu adiyifo asafodɔm sɛ wofi afɔremuka a ɛwɔ bepɔw no so hɔ resian ba. Ɛhɔ na mubehyia adiyifo asafo a wɔresian afi bepɔw no so hɔ reba na bɛnta ne mpintin ne mmɛn ne asanku di wɔn anim a wɔrehyɛ nkɔm.

6 Kenaka Mzimu wa Yehova udzabwera pa iwe ndi mphamvu, ndipo udzayamba kulosera nawo pamodzi. Ndipo udzasinthika kukhala munthu wina.

Saa bere no, Onyankopɔn Honhom bɛba wo so wɔ tumi mu, na wo ne wɔn bɛhyɛ nkɔm. Wobɛsakra ayɛ onipa foforo.

7 Zizindikiro izi zikakachitika, dzachite chilichonse manja ako angathe kuchita, pakuti Mulungu ali nawe.

Saa nsɛnkyerɛnne yi akyi no, yɛ nea wugye di sɛ eye biara, na Onyankopɔn bɛka wo ho.

8 “Tsono tsogola kupita ku Giligala. Ine ndidzabwera ndithu kudzapereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano. Koma ukandidikire masiku asanu ndi awiri mpaka ine nditabwera kuti ndidzakuwuze zomwe udzachite.”

Afei, sian di mʼanim kɔ Gilgal na kɔtwɛn me wɔ hɔ nnanson. Mɛba abɛka wo ho wɔ hɔ, na yɛabɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne asomdwoe afɔre. Na sɛ midu hɔ a, mɛkyerɛ wo nea ɛsɛ sɛ woyɛ bio.”

9 Sauli akutembenuka kusiyana ndi Samueli, Mulungu anasintha mtima wa Sauli, ndipo zinthu zonsezi zinakwaniritsidwa tsiku lomwelo.

Saulo dan ne ho pɛɛ sɛ ɔkɔ ara pɛ, Onyankopɔn sesaa ne koma, na Samuel nsɛnkyerɛnne nyinaa baa mu da no.

10 Atafika ku Gibeya, anakumana ndi gulu la aneneri. Mzimu wa Mulungu unabwera pa iye mwamphamvu, nayamba kulosa nawo.

Bere a Saulo ne ne somfo no duu Gibea no, wohuu sɛ adiyifo no reba. Afei Onyankopɔn honhom baa Saulo so, na ɔno nso fii ase hyɛɛ nkɔm.

11 Pamene onse amene ankamudziwa kale anamuona akulosera pamodzi ndi aneneri, anafunsana wina ndi mnzake. “Kodi nʼchiyani chachitika ndi mwana wa Kisi? Kodi Sauli alinso mʼgulu la aneneri?”

Bere a ne nnamfonom tee saa asɛm yi no, wɔteɛɛ mu se, “Asɛm bɛn na moreka yi? Saulo nso abɛyɛ odiyifo? Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na Kis babarima tumi bɛyɛɛ odiyifo?”

12 Munthu wina wa kumeneko anayankha kuti, “Nanga enawa abambo awo ndani?” Kotero kunayambika mwambi wakuti, “Kodi Saulinso ali mʼgulu la aneneri?”

Nanso ɛhɔni bi kae se, “Sɛnea nʼagya te de, ɛmfa ho; obiara tumi bɛyɛ odiyifo.” Enti ɛbɛyɛɛ sɛnnahɔ se, “Enti Saulo nso abɛyɛ odiyifo?”

13 Sauli atasiya kuloserako, anapita ku kachisi ku phiri.

Saulo gyaee adiyi no, ɔforoo bepɔw no kɔɔ afɔremuka no so.

14 Tsono amalume ake a Sauli anamufunsa ndi mnyamata wake kuti, “Munapita kuti?” Iye anayakha, “Timakafunafuna abulu koma titaona kuti sakupezeka, tinapita kwa Samueli.”

Oduu hɔ no, Saulo wɔfa bisaa no se, “Ɛhefa na wokɔe a dedaada yenhuu wo yi?” Saulo buae se, “Yɛkɔhwehwɛɛ mfurum a wɔayera no, nanso yɛanhu wɔn. Ɛno nti, yɛkɔɔ odiyifo Samuel nkyɛn kobisaa no faako a wɔwɔ.”

15 Amalume ake a Sauli anati, “Chonde, ndifotokozereniko zimene Samueli wakuwuzani.”

Ne wɔfa no bisae se, “Saa? Na asɛm bɛn na ɔkae?”

16 Sauli anati, “Iye anatitsimikizira kuti abulu anapezeka.” Koma sanawawuze amalume akewo za nkhani ija ya ufumu imene Samueli anamuwuza.

Saulo buae se, “Ɔkae se, wɔahu mfurum no.” Nanso Saulo anka ankyerɛ ne wɔfa no sɛ Samuel asra no ngo sɛ wobesi no ɔhene.

17 Samueli anayitana Aisraeli onse kuti asonkhane pamaso pa Yehova ku Mizipa.

Samuel frɛɛ Israelfo nyinaa baa Awurade anim wɔ Mispa,

18 Ndipo anawuza Aisraeli onse kuti, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ine ndinakutulutsani mʼdziko la Igupto ndi kukupulumutsani mʼdzanja la Igupto ndi mʼdzanja la mafumu onse amene ankakuzunzani.’

na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛnea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni, ‘Mede Israelfo fii Misraim bae, na migyee mo fii Misraim tumi ne wɔn a wodi mo nya no nyinaa ase.’

19 Koma lero mwamukana Mulungu wanu amene amakupulumutsani mʼmavuto anu onse ndi mʼzowawa zanu. Ndipo mukuti, ‘Ayi, koma mutipatse mfumu yotilamulira.’ Tsopanotu sonkhanani pamaso pa Yehova mwa mafuko ndi mabanja anu.”

Nanso ɛwɔ mu sɛ mayɛ bebree ama mo de, nso moapo me aka se, ‘Yɛpɛ ɔhene.’ Enti afei, momfa mo mmusuakuw ne mo mmusua mmra Awurade anim.”

20 Samueli atasonkhanitsa mafuko onse a Israeli, fuko la Benjamini linasankhidwa.

Samuel maa Israel mmusuakuw nyinaa bae no, Benyamin abusuakuw na woyii wɔn.

21 Anasonkhanitsa fuko la Benjamini banja ndi banja. Pomaliza anasonkhanitsa banja la Matiri mmodzimmodzi ndipo Sauli mwana wa Kisi anasankhidwa. Koma atamufunafuna, sanamupeze.

Afei ɔmaa Benyamin abusuakuw no mu afi nyinaa baa Awurade anim na woyii Matri abusua, na awiei no woyii Kis babarima Saulo. Na wɔhwehwɛɛ no no, na wonhu baabi a wafa.

22 Tsono anthu anafunsanso kwa Yehova kuti, “Kodi munthuyu wabwera kale kuno?” Ndipo Yehova anayankha kuti, “Inde wabisala pakati pa katundu.”

Enti wobisaa Awurade se, “Na ɔwɔ he?” Na Awurade buae se, “Yiw, ɔde ne ho ahintaw nneɛma mu.”

23 Iwo anathamanga ndi kukamutenga kumeneko. Atayimirira pakati pa anthu anapezeka kuti anali wamtali kuposa anthu ena mwakuti ankamulekeza mʼmapewa.

Enti wotuu mmirika kɔfaa no bae. Na obegyinaa nnipa no mu no na ne tenten bunkam fa obiara so.

24 Samueli anafunsa anthu onse kuti, “Kodi mukumuona munthu amene Yehova wasankha? Palibe wofanana naye pakati pa anthu onse.” Kenaka anthu onse anafuwula kuti, “Mfumu ikhale ndi moyo wautali!”

Samuel ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa se, “Ɔbarima a Awurade apaw no sɛ mo hene ni. Obiara nni Israel ha a ɔne no sɛ.” Afei, nnipa no nyinaa bɔ gyee so se, “Ɔhene nkwa so!”

25 Samueli anafotokozera anthu ntchito ndi udindo wa mfumu. Pambuyo pake analemba mʼbuku zonse zokhudza ntchito ndi udindo wa mfumu, ndipo bukulo analiyika pamaso pa Yehova. Kenaka Samueli analola aliyense kuti abwerere kupita kwawo.

Samuel kyerɛkyerɛɛ mmara a ɛbata saa ahenni no ho kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Ɔkyerɛw guu nhoma mmobɔwee so, de kɔtoo Awurade anim. Afei, Samuel gyaa ɔmanfo no kwan ma wɔkɔɔ wɔn afi mu.

26 Sauli anapitanso ku mudzi kwawo ku Gibeya, pamodzi ndi anthu amphamvu amene Mulungu anawafewetsa mitima.

Saulo nso kɔɔ ne fi wɔ Gibea na nnipakuw bi a Onyankopɔn aka wɔn koma de wɔn ho bɛbɔɔ no.

27 Koma anthu ena achabechabe anati, “Kodi munthu uyu angathe bwanji kutipulumutsa?” Iwo anayamba kumunyoza Sauliyo, ndipo sankamupatsa ngakhale mphatso. Koma iye sanalabadireko.

Nanso amumɔyɛfo bi kae se, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na saa onipa yi atumi agye yɛn?” Wobuu no animtiaa a wɔammrɛ no akyɛde biara. Nanso Saulo ammua wɔn.
