< 1 Samuel 10 >
1 Chuin Samuel in olive thao thei khat alan, Saul luchung’ah asunglhan achop’in ajah ah, “Keiman hiche kabolna ajeh chu Pakaiyin nangma Israel chunga lamkai dinga, panmun sanga dinga nalhendoh ahitai.
USamuyeli wasethatha umfuma wamafutha wawathela ekhanda likaSawuli wasemanga, esithi, “Uthixo kakugcobanga ukuba ngumbusi welifa lakhe na?
2 Tunia hi nangma keija kona napotdoh tengle, Benjamin gamgi Zelzah-a Rachel lhan koma mini namu ding, sangan ho chu akimutai ti chu amanin aseilhon ding ahi. Napa sangan ho jeh’a nalungkham nachu akichaitan, tua hi nangni dinga lungkham ah ahi. Aman miho jah’ah kachapa namu uvem tin adongle le in ahi,” ati.
Ekusukeni kwakho kimi lamhla, uzahlangana lamadoda amabili eduze kwengcwaba likaRasheli, eliseZeliza esemngceleni wakoBhenjamini. Azakuthi kuwe, ‘Obabhemi obuyebadinga sebetholakele. Khathesi uyihlo kasacabangi ngabo kodwa usekhathazeka ngawe. Uyabuza esithi, “Ngizakwenzanjani ngendodana yami na?”’
3 “Chule chua kon chun chebe-lhon lechun, Tabor phaicham lhungin natin chua chun Bethel’a Pathen henga chetouva mithum nakimu topi ding, khat pan kelcha nou thum, khatpan changlhah thum chule khatpan lengpitwi haikhat achoi namu ding ahi.
Uzahamba-ke usuka lapho uze ufike esihlahleni esikhulu saseThabhori. Amadoda amathathu aya kuNkulunkulu eBhetheli azahlangana lawe khonapho. Enye izathwala amazinyane embuzi amathathu, enye izinkwa ezintathu lenye umgodla wewayini.
4 Chule amaho chun chibai naboh diu, changlhah ni napeh dingu, hichu akhut uva kona nakisan ding ahi.
Azakubingelela akuphe izinkwa ezimbili, ozazamukela kuwo.
5 Chutengle Phlistine sepaiho umna Pathen lhaang’a chu nahung ding, chule hiche kho pia chu nahung tengle tumging, khongcha, kuli, selangdah, amasang uva hintho’a munsang’a kona hung kumlha themgao honkhat nakitopi ding, amaho chun gaothu asei dingu ahi.
Emva kwalokho, uzakuya eGibhiya kaNkulunkulu lapho okulesilindo sebutho lamaFilistiya khona. Lapho usubanga emzini, uzahlangana lodwendwe lwabaphrofethi besehla bevela endaweni ephakemeyo, phambi kwabo kutshaywa imiqangala lamagedla lemifece kanye lemihubhe, njalo bazakuba bephrofetha.
6 Hiche phatteng chule Pakai Lhagao thahattah’a nachung’uva hung chu ding, amahotoh gaothu nasei khom ding, chule michombeh khat nakiso ding ahi,” ati.
UMoya kaThixo uzakwehlela phezu kwakho ngamandla, lawe uzaphrofetha labo, njalo uzaguqulwa ube ngomunye umuntu.
7 “Chule hiche melchihna hohi nachung’a ahunglhun tengle, Pathen in naumpi jeh chun Pathenin napuina lam lam chu bol jengin.
Izibonakaliso lezi zingagcwaliseka, yenza loba yini okubona kufanele ukuba ukwenze, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulawe.
8 Chutengle nangma keisangin Gilgal’a nachesuh ding, chule hikom’a chu ikimu’a govam kilhaina le chamna thilto gan kilhaina bol ding’a iki suhto ding ahi. Nangman hikoma’a chu ni sagi chan nei nga ding chule maban a nathilbol ding kaseipeh ding nahi,” ati.
Hamba ungandulele eGiligali. Ngizakuza kuwe impela ngizenikela umhlatshelo weminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yobuzalwane. Kodwa kuzamele ulinde insuku eziyisikhombisa ngize ngifike kuwe ngikutshele okumele ukwenze.”
9 Hitichun Saul chu, Samuel’a kona kinungle dinga ache got chun, Pathen in ama lungchom khat apen, Hiche ni chun melchihna jouse chu aguilhung sohtai.
Kwathi uSawuli ephenduka esesuka kuSamuyeli, uNkulunkulu waguqula inhliziyo kaSawuli, njalo zonke izibonakaliso lezi zagcwaliseka mhlalokho.
10 Saul le asohpa Gilgal’a ahunglhun lhon phat’in, amahon themgao thah loi khat amaho langa ahung amuphat un, Pathen lhagao thahattah’in Saul chung’ah ahung chun, amatah jong chun gaothu aseiyin ahi.
Bathi befika eGibhiya, udwendwe lwabaphrofethi lwabahlangabeza; uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla, laye wahlanganyela ekuphrofitheni kwabo.
11 Chuin Saul anahe hochun, “Kish chapa, Saul jeng jong themgao hihi ngap hitam?” atiuve.
Kwathi labo ababevele bemazi bembona esephrofitha labaphrofethi, babuzana besithi, “Kuyini kanti lokhu osekwenzakale endodaneni kaKhishi? USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
12 Chule chukoma ding miho lah khat’in, “Apateu itobang hijong leu, mijouse themgao hitheiya ham?” ati. Hichea pat a chu, “Saul jeng jong Themgao soh ngap hitam?” tia hung kiseipan ahi.
Umuntu owayehlala lapho waphendula wathi, “Uyise wabo ngubani na?” Ngakho kwaba yisitsho ukuthi: “USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
13 Chuin Saul in gaothu aseijou phat’in, Pathen houna mun’ah ahung kaltouvin ahi.
Kwathi uSawuli eseyekele ukuphrofetha, wasesiya endaweni ephakemeyo.
14 Chuin Saul pangah pan ama le asohpa jah’a, “Hoiya nagache ham?” tia adoh leh “Sangan holla kache lhon ahin, ahinlah kamu lhonpon, Samuel dong dinga kache lhon ahi,” tin Saul in ana donbut’e.
Ngalesosikhathi uyise omncane kaSawuli wambuza kanye lenceku yakhe wathi, “Kanti kade lingaphi?” USawuli waphendula wathi, “Kade sidinga obabhemi. Kodwa kuthe sibona ukuthi kabatholakali, sasesisiya kuSamuyeli.”
15 Apangah pan adong kit’in, “O Samuel in ipi naseipeh lhon em?” tin adongkit in ahi.
Uyise omncane kaSawuli wasesithi, “Ngitshela ukuthi uSamuyeli utheni kuwe.”
16 Saul in adonbut in, “Sangan chu akimutai tin eina seipeh lhonin,” ahi. Ahinlah Saul in apangah koma Samuel in lenggam thu asei chu, asedoh poi.
USawuli waphendula wathi, “Uqinise kithi ukuthi obabhemi sebebonakele.” Kodwa kamtshelanga uyise omncane okwakutshiwo nguSamuyeli ngobukhosi.
17 Chujouvin Samuel in Pakai masang’ah Israel mipite jouse Mizpah muna kimuto din kouvin ahi.
USamuyeli wabizela abantu bako-Israyeli kuThixo eMizipha
18 Ajah-uva, “Hichehi Pakai Israelte Pathen phondoh ahi: Keiman Egypt a konin kahin puidoh un, chule Egypt mite’a konin kahin huhdoh un, chule namdang mite jouse bol gentheina a konin kahin hoidoh in,
wathi kubo, “Nanku okutshiwo yiThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: ‘Ngakhupha u-Israyeli eGibhithe, njalo ngalikhulula esandleni seGibhithe lakuyo yonke imibuso eyayilincindezela.’
19 Ahin nagenthei nauva kona kahuhdoh vangun, na Pathen’u tunin napai tauve chule hitin nasei’un, i-dang sangin leng khat kadei uve natiuve. Hijeh chun tun, naphung nachang uvin, na nampumpiu vin Pakai ang’ah ding in kigong un,” ati.
Kodwa khathesi selimalile uNkulunkulu wenu, olihlengayo ezingozini zenu zonke lasezinsizini. Njalo selithe, ‘Hatshi, sibekele inkosi ezasibusa.’ Ngakho-ke khathesi zibonakaliseni phambi kukaThixo ngezizwana zenu langezinsendo zenu.”
20 Chuin Samuel in Israel phung jouse Pakai masang’ah ahin puikhom’in chule vang asangin Benjamin phung chu alhengtai.
Kwathi uSamuyeli esezilethe eduze zonke izizwana zako-Israyeli, isizwana sikaBhenjamini sakhethwa.
21 Benjamin phung insung jouse chu akoukhom kit in, chule amaho lah’a chun Matri insung alhengdoh kit tan ahi. Achainan Kish cahpa Saul chu amaho insung lah’a kon chun ana lhengdoh un ahi. Ahinlah amachu ahol’u le aholmo tauve.
Emva kwalokho waletha isizwana sikaBhenjamini phambili, usendo ngosendo, kwakhethwa usendo lukaMathiri. Ekucineni kwakhethwa uSawuli, indodana kaKhishi. Kodwa kwathi sebemdinga akaze abonakala.
22 Chuin amahon Pakai adoh uleh, “Thilkeo lah’a akiselle,” tin Pakaiyin ahin donbut’e.
Ngakho babuza njalo kuThixo bathi, “Umuntu lo uke wafika lapha na?” UThixo wathi, “Ye, usezifihle phakathi kwezimpahla.”
23 Hitichun amahon jong Saul chu agamudoh uvin ahin puidoh uva mipi lah’a adinleh, alengkouva pat chunglamse chu mijouse sangin asangjon ahi.
Bagijima bayamkhipha, njalo kwathi esemi phakathi kwabantu, wayemude kulabo bonke.
24 Chuin Samuel in mijouse jah ah, “Hiche mipa hi ahi Pakijin na lengpa ding uva alhen chu ahi, Israelte lah’a ama tobang adang aumpoi,” ati. Chuin mipiten, “Lengpa damsot hen,” tin asam’un ahi.
USamuyeli wasesithi ebantwini bonke, “Liyambona yini umuntu osekhethwe nguThixo? Kakho lamunye onjengaye phakathi kwabantu bonke bako-Israyeli.” Abantu baklabalala besithi, “Impilo ende enkosini!”
25 Chuin Samuel in mipite jah’a lengpan atoh atham di thudol ahillin, chule lekhajol khat’a asun lut in, Pakai angsung ah akoitai. Chuin Samuel in mipi ho chu ama ama incheh’ah asoltai.
USamuyeli wachaza ebantwini imithetho yobukhosi. Wayiloba emqulwini wayibeka phambi kukaThixo. Emva kwalokho wabachitha abantu, ngulowo lalowo waya emzini wakhe.
26 Chuin Saul jong Gibeah kho a-inlam ah achetan, chule Pathen in alungsung atohkhah mi honkhat in alhon piuvin ahi.
USawuli laye waya kibo eGibhiya ephelekezelwa ngabantu abangamaqhawe uNkulunkulu ayethinte inhliziyo zabo.
27 Ahinlah pannabei miphabep chun, “Hichepan iti eihuhdoh diu ham?” atiuve. Chuin amahon ama nahsahmon abol’un, thilpeh imacha ahin choipeh pouvin ahi. Ahinlah ama athipbeh in ana nahsah pon ahi.
Kodwa ezinye izidlwangudlwangu zathi, “Umuntu lo angasikhulula kanjani na?” Zameyisa kazaze zamlethela zipho. Kodwa uSawuli wazithulela.
