< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 Nahash ja-Amon nodhi malo momonjo Jabesh Gilead. Eka joma chwo man Jabesh Gilead nowachone niya, “Tim winjruok kodwa to wabiro bedo wasumbini magi.”
Nahashi muAmoni akakwidza akaenda kundorwisa Jabheshi Gireadhi. Zvino varume vose veJabheshi vakati kwaari, “Ita chibvumirano nesu tigova pasi pako.”
2 To Nahash ja-Amon nodwoko niya, “Abiro timo winjruok kodu mana ka uyie ni agolo wengeu ma korachwich kuom ngʼato ka ngʼato mondo akuodgo wi Israel duto.”
Asi Nahashi muAmoni akapindura achiti, “Ndichaita chibvumirano nemi bedzi kana ndabvisa ziso rokurudyi romumwe nomumwe wenyu mose saizvozvo ndigonyadzisa Israeri yose.”
3 Eka jodong Jabesh nowachone niya, “Miwa ndalo abiriyo mondo waor joote e piny Israel duto kaonge ngʼama oyie biro konyowa to wabiro chiwore e lweti.”
Vakuru veJabheshi vakati kwaari, “Tipe mazuva manomwe kuti tigotuma nhume muIsraeri yose; kana pashaya mumwe chete anouya kuzotinunura, tichazvipa kwamuri.”
4 Kane joote otundo Gibea dalagi Saulo mi ginyiso ji wechego, giduto ne giywak matek.
Nhume padzakauya kuGibhea yaSauro vakaudza vanhu zvisungo izvi vose vakachema zvikuru.
5 E sechego noyudo Saulo duogo koa e puodho ka owuotho bangʼ rwethe eka nopenjo ni, Angʼo marach gi ji? Angʼo momiyo giywak? Eka negiwachone kendo weche mane jo-jabesh owacho.
Panguva iyoyo Sauro akanga achibva kuminda, ari shure kwehando dzake, akabvunza achiti, “Vanhu vaita sei? Vari kuchemeiko?” Ipapo vakarondedzerazve zvakanga zvataurwa navarume veJabheshi.
6 Kane Saulo owinjo wechegi, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuome gi teko, mi iye nowangʼ ahinya.
Sauro paakanzwa mashoko aya, mweya waMwari wakauya pamusoro pake nesimba, akatsva nehasha.
7 Ne okawo rwedhi ariyo mag pur mi oyangʼo mi opogo ringʼo lemo lemo, eka nooro joote gi ringʼogi e piny Israel duto, kowacho niya, “Ma e gima ibiro timne rweth ngʼat modagi luwo bangʼ Saulo gi Samuel.” Eka luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye ne omako ji mine giwuok gi chuny achiel.
Akatora hando mbiri, akadzicheka-cheka, akatumidzira zvidimbu izvi nenhume muIsraeri yose, namashoko okuti, “Izvi ndizvo zvichaitwa kuhando dzaani naani asingateveri Sauro naSamueri.” Ipapo kutya kwaMwari kwakawira pamusoro pavanhu, vakauya somunhu mumwe chete.
8 Kane Saulo okwanogi Bezek, jo-Israel ne oromo alufu mia adek to jo-Juda ne oromo alufu piero adek.
Sauro paakavaunganidza paBhezeki, varume veIsraeri vaisvika mazana matatu ezviuru uye varume veJudha zviuru makumi matatu.
9 Neginyiso joote mane obiro niya, “Wachneuru jo-Jabesh Gilead ni, ‘E sa ma chiengʼ oore, enoresu.’” Kane joote odwoko ne jo-Jabesh wachni negimor.
Vakaudza nhume dzakanga dzauya kuti, “Muti kuvarume veJabheshi Gireadhi, ‘Mangwana kana zuva ropisa muchanunurwa.’” Nhume padzakaenda dzikandotaura izvi kuvarume veJabheshi, vakafara kwazvo.
10 Eka neginyiso jo-Amon niya, “Kiny wanachiwre e lwetu kendo unutimnwa gima uneno ni bernu.”
Vakati kuvaAmoni, “Mangwana tichazvipira kwamuri, uye muchaita kwatiri zvose zvinenge zvakakunakirai.”
11 Kinyne Saulo nopogo joge e migepe adek; kane ochopo kogwen eka negidonjo e kambi mar jo-Amon mi ginegogi nyaka chiengʼ obet makech. Jogo mane otony ne oke maonge ji ariyo mane owe kawuotho kaachiel.
Zuva raitevera, Sauro akaisa vanhu vake muzvikwata zvitatu; panguva yemambakwedza vakapinda mumusasa wavaAmoni vakavauraya kusvikira zuva ropisa. Vakararama vakapararira, zvokuti hapana vaviri vavo vakasara vari pamwe chete.
12 Eka ji nowachone Samuel niya, “Ngʼa gini mane penjo ni, ‘Bende Saulo dibed ruodhwa?’ Kelnwagi mondo waneg-gi.”
Ipapo vanhu vakati kuna Samueri, “Ndiani akabvunza achiti, ‘Sauro achatitonga here?’ Uyai navarume ava kwatiri tivauraye.”
13 To Saulo nowacho niya, “Onge ngʼama inego kawuono nikech kawuono Jehova Nyasaye osereso Israel.”
Asi Sauro akati, “Hapana munhu achaurayiwa nhasi, nokuti nhasi Jehovha anunura Israeri.”
14 Eka Samuel ne owacho ne ji niya, “Biuru wadhi Gilgal kendo kuno wadhi guro loch Saulo.”
Zvino Samueri akati kuvanhu, “Uyai tiende kuGirigari tindosimbisa umambo ikoko zvakare.”
15 Omiyo ji duto nodhi Gilgal kendo negiguro Saulo kaka ruoth e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Kuno ne gichiwoe misengini mag lalruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo Saulo kod Israel noloso budho malich ahinya.
Saka vanhu vose vakaenda kuGirigari vakasimbisa Sauro samambo pamberi paJehovha. Ipapo vakabayira zvipo zvokuwadzana pamberi paJehovha, uye Sauro navaIsraeri vose vakava nokupemberera kukuru.
