1 Benjamin hlang kah a capa Aphiah, Aphiah capa Bekorath, Bekorath capa Zeror, Zeror capa Abiel, Abiel capa, a ming ah Kish tah Benjamin khuiah Benjamin tongpa, tatthai hlangrhalh la om.
Ɔbarima ɔdefo bi a odi mu tenaa ase a na ne din de Kis na ofi Benyamin abusua mu. Na ɔyɛ Abiel babarima, na ne nena ne Seror a ofi Bekorat fi ne Afia abusua mu.

Na ne babarima Saulo ho yɛ fɛ yiye sen obiara wɔ Israel. Na ɔware sen obiara fi ne mmati kosi ne ti so wɔ asase no so.
3 Saul napa Kish kah laak rhoek a hma pah hatah Kish loh a capa Saul taengah, “Cadong rhoek khuiah pakhat te namah taengla khuen laeh. Te phoeiah thoo lamtah laak rhoek te tlap hamla ha cet laeh,” a ti nah.
Da bi Kis mfurum yerae, na ɔka kyerɛɛ Saulo se, “Fa asomfo no mu baako, na wo ne no nkɔhwehwɛ mfurum no.”
4 Te dongah Ephraim tlang te a paan tih Shalisha kho khaw a lan dae hmu rhoi pawh. Te phoeiah Shaalim kho la cet rhoi dae a om pawt dongah Benjamin kho te a lan rhoi akhaw hmu rhoi pawh.
Enti Saulo faa asomfo no mu baako. Wɔkɔfaa Efraim bepɔw asase, Salisa asase, Saalim fam ne Benyamin asase nyinaa so, nanso wɔanhu mfurum no baabiara.
5 Zuph kho te a pha rhoi vaengah Saul loh a taengkah cadong te, “Ceh, bal pawn sih, a pa loh laak te toeng vetih mamih rhoi ham mawn ve,” a ti nah.
Na woduu Suf mansin mu no, Saulo ka kyerɛɛ ɔsomfo a ɔka ne ho no se, “Bra, ma yɛnsan nkɔ faako a yefi bae, na ebia, mʼagya agyae mfurum no ho dwene, ɔredwen yɛn ho mmom.”
6 Tedae cadong loh Saul te, “Hekah kho ah Pathen kah hlang om, teka hlang loh a thui boeih tah thoeng rhoela thoeng tih hlang loh a oep. Pahoi cet pawn sih lamtah mah rhoi taengah caeh long khaw a thui khaming,” a ti nah.
Nanso ɔsomfo no buae se, “Manya adwene bi, Onyame nipa bi te kurow yi mu a wobu no yiye. Na asɛm biara a ɔbɛka nso ba mu. Ma yɛnkɔ ne hɔ mprempren ara, ebia obetumi akyerɛ yɛn faako a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛfa.”
7 Te dongah Saul loh a tueihyoeih taengah, “Tahae ah tarha n'cet cakhaw tekah hlang taengah balae ng'khuen eh? Mah rhoi kah hnocun khui lamkah caak khaw n'khawk. Kutdoe khuen mueh lamtah Pathen hlang taengah mamih rhoi balae n'loh eh?,” a ti nah.
Saulo buaa no se, “Yenni hwee a yebetumi de akyɛ saa ɔbarima no, yɛn nnuan mpo asa, yenni biribiara a yɛde bɛma no.”
8 Tueihyoeih loh Saul te a rhaep la a doo tih, “Ka kut dongah cak shekel tamat om ta he. Pathen hlang te ka paek vetih mamih rhoi kah longpuei khaw mah rhoi taengah a thui bitni,” a ti nah.
Ɔsomfo no buaa no bio se, “Hwɛ! Mewɔ dwetɛ gram abiɛsa. Yebetumi de ama no, na yɛahwɛ nea ebesi.”
9 Hlamat vaengah Israel khuikah hlang te Pathen dawt ham a caeh atah, “Halo lamtah kho aka hmu taengla cet lah sih,” a ti uh. Te dongah tihnin tonghma he hlamat vaengah tah khohmu ni a. ti uh.
(Saa bere no, sɛ nnipa rekobisa Onyankopɔn hɔ ade a, wɔka se, “Momma yenkobisa adehuni” efisɛ saa bere no na wɔfrɛ adiyifo adehuni.)
10 Te dongah Saul loh a taengca taengah, “Nang ol te then, halo lamtah cet pawn sih,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Pathen hlang kah khopuei la cet rhoi.
Saulo penee so ka kyerɛɛ ne somfo no se, “Eye, ma yɛnsɔ nhwɛ!” Enti wosii mu kɔɔ kurow a Onyame nipa wɔ mu no so.
11 Khopuei kham ah a yoeng rhoi vaengah tui than la aka lo hula rhoek te a hmuh rhoi tih amih te, “He ah he khohmu om a,” a ti nah.
Wɔreforo bepɔw bi akɔ kurow no mu no, wohyiaa mmabaa bi a wɔrekɔsaw nsu, na Saulo ne ne somfo no bisaa wɔn se, “Adehuni no wɔ ha nnɛ?”
12 Te vaengah amih rhoi te a doo uh tih, “Na hmai ah om ta ke, tihnin he hmuensang ah pilnam ham hmueih hnin la a om dongah khopuei la ha pawk te a loe la cet rhoi.
Wobuae se, “Ɔwɔ mo anim. Monka mo ho, nnɛ ara a waba yɛn kurow yi mu efisɛ ɔmanfo rebɛbɔ afɔre wɔ bepɔw no so hɔ.
13 Buh ca la hmuensang ah a caeh hlanah khopuei la na kun rhoi atah anih te na hmuh bitni. Anih a pawk hlan khuiah tah pilnam long khaw ca hlan ni. Hmueih te anih loh yoethen a paek daengah ni a khue rhoek loh a caak uh. Te dongah tahae rhoe ah anih taengla cet rhoi lamtah amah te tlek na hmuh rhoi bitni,” a ti na uh.
Monka mo ho nkɔto no, ansa na waforo akɔ bepɔw no so akodidi. Nnipa no mfi ase nnidi kosi sɛ obehyira aduan no so.”
14 Te dongah khopuei te a paan rhoi tih kho lung la a pha rhoi vaengah tah hmuensang la aka cet Samuel te amih rhoi aka doe la tarha ha pawk.
Enti wɔkɔɔ kurow no mu. Na wɔrewura apon no mu no, na Samuel ani kyerɛ wɔn so a ɔrekɔforo bepɔw no.
15 Saul a pha hlan kah hnin at vaengah Samuel hna te BOEIPA loh a hnacueh pah coeng tih,
Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Samuel da a atwa mu no se,
16 “Thangvuen he vaeng tue ah Benjamin kho lamkah hlang pakhat te nang taengla kan tueih ni. Te vaengah anih te ka pilnam Israel soah rhaengsang la koelh lamtah ka pilnam te Philisti kut lamloh khang saeh. Ka pilnam kah a pangngawlnah loh kai taengla ham pha te ka hmuh dam coeng,” a ti nah.
“Ɔkyena sesɛɛ, mɛsoma obi afi Benyamin asase so. Sra no ngo, na ɔmmɛyɛ me nkurɔfo Israelfo kannifo. Obegye wɔn afi Filistifo nsam. Mede ahummɔbɔ ahwɛ me nkurɔfo, na mate wɔn sufrɛ.”
17 Samuel loh Saul a hmuh vaengah BOEIPA loh, “Kai pilnam soah taemrhai saeh,” tila nang taengah ka thui hlang te anih la he,” a ti nah.
Bere a Samuel huu Saulo ara pɛ, Awurade kae se, “Oyi ne ɔbarima a mekaa ne ho asɛm kyerɛɛ wo no. Ɔno na obedi me nkurɔfo so no.”
18 Saul tah vongka khui ah Samuel taengla thoeih tih, “Khohmu im te melae kai taengah han thui lah,” a ti nah.
Saulo kɔɔ Samuel nkyɛn wɔ abɔntenpon no ano kobisaa no se, “Wubetumi akyerɛ me baabi a ɔdehufo no fi wɔ ana?”
19 Saul te Samuel loh a doo tih, “Kai la khohmu loel, kai hmaiah cet lamtah tihnin ah hmuensang ah kamah neh buh hmaih ca sih. Mincang ah kan tueih vetih na thinko ah aka om boeih te nang taengah kan thui bitni.
Samuel buae se, “Mene ɔdehufo no. Di mʼanim kan wɔ bepɔw no so, kɔ faako a wɔbɔ afɔre hɔ, na yɛn nyinaa bedidi wɔ hɔ. Anɔpa, mɛkyerɛ wo nea wopɛ sɛ wuhu, na magya wo kwan.
20 Laak rhoek te khaw namah taeng lamkah loh khohnin hnin thum hma coeng dae na hmuh la om coeng dongah te na lungbuei ah mawn sak boeh. Israel pum kah a sahnaih te ulae? Nang taeng neh na capa imkhui boeih taengah moenih a?,” a ti nah.
Na mfurum a wɔyeraa nnɛnnansa no, mma wɔn ho asɛm nhaw wo koraa, efisɛ wɔahu wɔn. Na mepɛ sɛ meka kyerɛ wo se, Israel anidaso nyinaa yɛ wo ne wo fifo.”
21 Saul loh a doo tih, “Kai Benjamin ca he, Israel koca khuiah capoeih moenih a? Kamah huiko he khaw, Benjamin koca boeih khuiah a poeih ni. Balae tih hebang ol he kai taengah na thui,” a ti nah.
Saulo buae se, “So mimfi Benyamin a ɛyɛ abusua ketewa koraa wɔ mmusuakuw no mu. Na me fi nso nyɛ ketewa koraa wɔ Benyamin afi no nyinaa mu. Na adɛn nti na woka eyi kyerɛ me?”
22 Samuel loh Saul neh a taengca te a khuen tih imkhui la a kun puei. Tedae a khue hlang sawmthum tluk kah a lu ah amih rhoi te hmuen a paek.
Enti Samuel de Saulo ne ne somfo no baa asa so hɔ. Ɔma wɔtenaa wɔn a wɔato nsa afrɛ wɔn no pon ti, de hyɛɛ wɔn anuonyam wɔ nnipa dodow bɛyɛ sɛ aduasa no anim.
23 Te phoeiah Samuel loh imtawt taengah, “Nang taengah, 'Khueh dae,’ kan ti nah tih, “Namah kam paek maehvae te hang khuen,” a ti nah.
Samuel ka kyerɛɛ osoodoni no se, “Fa nam sin a mede maa wo no bra, nea wɔde asie ama nea wɔrehyɛ no anuonyam no.”
24 Te dongah imtawt loh maeh laeng te a pom tih Saul hmai ah a tloeng pah. Te phoeiah, “Nang hmai ah tloeng ham a paih coeng ca laeh. ‘Khoning vaengkah la nang ham kael pah,’ tila ka khue pilnam khaw ka ti nah,” a ti nah. Te dongah tekah khohnin ah tah Saul te Samuel taengah buh a caak.
Enti osoodoni no de ba bɛtoo Saulo anim. Samuel kae se, “Di nea wɔde asi wʼanim no. Mede sie maa wo ansa na mereto nsa afrɛ afoforo yi.” Enti Saulo ne Samuel didii.
25 Hmuensang lamloh khopuei la ha suntlak phoeiah imphu ah Saul neh a cal puei.
Aponto no akyi a wɔsan baa kurow no mu no, Samuel de Saulo kɔɔ atifi dan mu kosiesie nnabea maa no.
26 Mincang a pha tom vaengah thoo rhoi tih Samuel loh Saul te imphu, imphu lamloh a khue. Te vaengah, “Thoo lamtah nang te kan tueih pawn eh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Saul te thoo tih amamih rhoi khaw, Samuel khaw kawtpoeng la cet uh.
Ade kyee anɔpa no, Samuel kɔɔ Saulo nkyɛn kɔfrɛɛ no se, “Sɔre! Anka ɛsɛ sɛ saa bere yi wonam kwan so.” Enti Saulo siesiee ne ho na ɔne Samuel nyinaa bɔɔ mu fii fie hɔ.
27 Amih te khopuei a bawt la suntla uh tih, Samuel loh Saul taengah, “Na taengca te thui pah lamtah mamih rhoi hmai ah caeh sak. Tedae anih te cet mai cakhaw namah tah hnin at om mai dae. Te vaengah Pathen ol te nang taengah kan yaak sak eh,” a ti nah.
Woduu kurotia no, Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Saulo sɛ ɔnsoma ne somfo no nni wɔn kan. Ɔsomfo no kɔe no, Samuel kae se, “Tena ha, efisɛ Onyankopɔn de nkra sononko bi ama me a, ɛsɛ sɛ meka kyerɛ wo.”
