< 1 Samuel 11 >
1 Ammon tami Nahash a luen teh, Gilead ram, Jabesh kho teng a tungpup awh. Jabesh khocanaw ni Nahash koe kaimouh koe lawkkam nateh, nange na thaw ka tawk han telah a dei awh.
Ndipo Nahashi Mwamoni akaenda na kupiga kambi kuzunguka Yabeshi Gileadi. Watu wote wa Yabeshi wakamwambia Nahashi, “Fanya mkataba nasi, na tutakutumikia,”
2 Ammon phun Nahash ni nangmouh pueng e aranglae mit hah cawngkhawi vaiteh, Isarelnaw pueng hane min mathoenae hoi kaya sak torei doeh ahnimouh hoi lawkkam han telah bout atipouh.
Nahashi Mwamoni akawajibu, “Kwa sharti hili nitafanya mkataba na ninyi, kwamba wote niwang'oe macho ya kulia, na kwa kitendo hiki kilete fedheha katika Israeli yote.”
3 Jabesh kho e kacuenaw ni ahni koe Isarel ram pueng dawk patounenaw patoun thai nahan, hnin 7 touh atueng na poe ei. Kaimouh ka rungngang hane buet touh boehai awm hoehpawiteh, hattorei doeh nang koe vah ka tâco awh han telah atipouh awh.
Basi wazee wa Yabeshi wakamjibu, “Tuache kwa siku saba, ili tuwatume wajumbe katika nchi yote ya Israeli. Ndiposa, kama hakuna mtu wa kutuokoa, tutasalimu amri kwako.”
4 Patounenaw teh Sawl a onae Gibeah kho a pha awh teh, taminaw a thai nahan hote akong a dei awh teh, taminaw teh a khuika awh.
Nao wajumbe wakafika Gibea, alipoishi Sauli, na wakawaeleza watu kile kilichotokea. Watu wote wakalia kwa sauti kuu.
5 Hatnae tueng nah Sawl teh maito a khoumnae koehoi a tho. Taminaw a khuika awh e bangkongmaw telah a pacei navah, ahnimouh ni Jabeshnaw ni a dei e lawk hah a dei pouh awh.
Na Sauli alikuwa akiwafuata nyuma maksai kutoka shambani. Sauli akauliza, “Watu wamepatwa na nini hadi wanalia?” Ndipo wakamweleza Sauli kile ambacho watu wa Yabeshi walikisema.
6 Hote lawk Sawl ni a thai toteh Sawl e lathueng Cathut e Muitha a pha teh a lung puenghoi a khuek.
Sauli aliposikia kile walichosema, Roho ya Mungu ikamjia kwa nguvu, na akakasirika.
7 Hahoi maito kahni touh a thei teh a moi koung a raban teh Isarel ram pueng dawk patounenaw a rei sak teh, taran tuknae koe Sawl hoi Samuel hnukkâbang hoeh e tami pueng e maito hah, hettelah sak han telah pathang pouh. BAWIPA takinae taminaw koe a pha teh cungtalah koung a tâco awh.
Akashika nira ya maksai, akawakata hao ng'ombe vipande vipande, na akavituma hivyo vipande katika nchi yote ya Israeli kwa kuwatumia wajumbe, Akasema, “Yeyote asiyejitokeza akimfuata Sauli na Samweli, hivi ndivyo ng'ombe wake watakavyofanywa.” Na hofu ya BWANA ikawaingia watu, na wakajitokeza wote kwa pamoja.
8 Bezek kho dawk tami a pâkhueng teh, Isarelnaw 300000, Judahnaw 30000 touh a pha.
Alipowahesabu hapo Beseki, watu wa Israeli walikuwa elfu mia tatu, na watu wa Yuda elfu thelathini.
9 Hahoi ka tho awh e patounenaw koe, Jebesh Gilead taminaw koe, hettelah na dei pouh han. Tangtho khumbei a thoe lahun nah kabawpnae na hmu awh han, na ti pouh han atipouh. Patounenaw ni a cei awh teh, Jebesh khocanaw hah a dei pouh navah, a lung ahawipoung awh.
Wakawaambia wale wajumbe waliotumwa, “Mtawaambia watu wa Yabeshi Gileadi, 'Kesho, wakati wa jua kali, Mtaokolewa.”' Basi wale wajumbe wakaenda na kuwaambia watu wa Yabeshi, na watu wakafurahi.
10 Hatdawkvah, Jebesh taminaw ni, tangtho nangmouh koe ka tâco awh vaiteh, nangmouh ni ahawi na tie patetlah kaimae lathueng sak lawih telah atipouh awh.
Ndipo watu wa Yabeshi wakamwambia Nahashi, “Kesho tutasalimu amri kwako, na utaweza kutufanyia chochote unachoona kinakupendeza.”
11 Atangtho vah Sawl ni taminaw hah ahu kathum touh lah a kapek. Tarannaw tumpupnae koe amom vah a pha awh teh, Ammonnaw teh kanîthun khumbeithoe lahun totouh a thei awh. Kahlout e tami buet touh hoi buet touh boehai cungtalah o thai hoeh totouh a kâkayei awh.
Siku iliyofuata Sauli akawapanga watu katika vikosi vitatu. Wakafika katikati ya Kambi wakati wa asubuhi, wakawashambulia na kuwashinda Waamoni ilipofika mchana. Waliosalimika nao walitawanyika, kiasi kwamba hata watu wawili hawakuachwa pamoja.
12 Hatnavah taminaw ni Samuel koe, Sawl ni na uk awh han namaw, ka tet e api nama. Thei thai nahan hi thokhai awh haw telah atipouh.
Ndipo watu wakamwambia Samweli, “Wako wapi waliosema, 'Hivi kweli Sauli atatutawala?' Walete watu hao, ili tuwauwe.”
13 Hatei Sawl ni sahnin dawk teh tami buet touh hai thet hanh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sahnin BAWIPA ni Isarel taminaw koe rungngangnae akuepsak telah a ti.
Lakini Sauli akasema, “Hakuna atakayeuwawa siku ya leo, kwa sababu leo BWANA amemuokoa Isreli.”
14 Hathnukkhu Samuel ni taminaw koe tho awh. Gilgal kho lah cet awh sei. Hote hmuen koe uknaeram hah bout kangdout sak awh sei telah atipouh.
Kisha Samweli akawaambia watu, “Njoni, twendeni Gilgali na tuimarishe ufalme tena huko.”
15 Taminaw pueng teh Gilgal kho lah a cei awh teh, haw vah BAWIPA e hmalah Sawl hah siangpahrang lah a tawm awh. Hote hmuen koe roum thuengnae BAWIPA koe a sak awh. Sawl hoi Isarelnaw teh puenghoi a lunghawi awh.
Hivyo watu wote wakaenda Gilgali na wakamsimika Sauli kuwa mfalme mbele za BWANA huko Gilgali. Na huko walitoa sadaka za amani mbele za BWANA, na watu wote wa Israeli wakafurahi sana.
