1 Samuel 12

1 Samuel nowachone jo-Israel duto niya, “Asewinjo gik moko duto ma usewachona kendo koro asemiyou ruoth.

Forsothe Samuel seide to al Israel, Lo! Y herde youre vois bi alle thingis whiche ye spaken to me, and Y ordeynede a kyng on you;

2 Koro un kod ruoth kaka jatendu. Anto aseti ma wiya oti lwar, kendo yawuota un-go ka. Asebedo jatendu chakre tin-na nyaka sani.

and now the king goith bifor you. Sotheli Y wexide eld and hoor; forsothe my sones ben with you; therfor Y lyuyde bifor you fro my yong wexynge age `til to this dai. And lo!

3 Eri achungʼ ka. Hulieuru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod ngʼate mowir ketho ma asetimo. Rwadh ngʼa masekawo? Punda ngʼa masekawo? Ngʼatno ma asethiro? Asekawo asoya koa kuom ngʼa mondo odin wangʼa? Ka dipo ni asetimo achiel kuom gigi, to aikora mar loso.”

Y am redi; speke ye to me bifor the Lord, and bifor `the crist of hym; whether Y took `the oxe of ony man, ether the asse; if Y falsly chalengide ony mon; yf Y oppresside ony man; if Y took yifte of `the hond of ony man; and Y schal `dispise it to dai, and Y schal restore to you.

4 Negidwoko niya, “Pok iwuondowa kata thirowa. Bende pok ikawo gimoro amora moa e lwet ngʼato.”

And thei seiden, Thou hast not falsly chalengid vs, nether hast oppressid vs, nether hast take ony thing of `the hond of ony man.

5 Samuel nowachonegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye en janeno kuomu, kendo ngʼate mowir bende obedo janeno kawuononi, ni ok useyudo gimoro e lweta.” Negiwacho niya, “Adier, en janeno.”

And he seide to hem, The Lord is witnesse ayens you, and his crist is witnesse in this day; for ye han not founde ony thing in myn hond. And thei seiden, Witnesse.

6 Eka Samuel nowachone ji niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ema ne oyiero Musa gi Harun kendo nogolo kwereu koa e piny Misri.

And Samuel seide to the puple, The Lord, that made Moises and Aaron, and ledde youre fadris out of the lond of Egipt, is present;

7 Koro sani, chungʼuru ka, mondo anyisu ratiro kendo aparnu e nyim Jehova Nyasaye timbe duto makare mane otimonu kaachiel gi wuoneu.

now therfor stonde ye, that Y stryue bi doom ayens you bifor the Lord, of alle the mercyes of the Lord, whiche he dide with you, and with youre fadris.

8 “Kane Jakobo odonjo e piny Misri, ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi, kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Musa gi Harun, mane ogolo kwereu owuok oa Misri mi oketogi kama gidakieni.

Hou Jacob entride in to Egipt, and youre fadris crieden to the Lord; and the Lord sente Moises and Aaron, and ledde youre fadris out of Egipt, and settide hem in this place.

9 “To wigi nowil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi; omiyo nojwangʼogi e lwet Sisera, jatend lweny mar Hazor, kendo e lwet jo-Filistia gi ruodh Moab mane okedo kodgi.

Whiche foryaten her Lord God; and he bitook hem in the hond of Sisara, maystir of the chyualrie of Asor, and in the hond of Filisteis, and in the hond of the kyng of Moab; and thei fouyten ayens hem.

10 Ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, ‘Wasetimo richo, waseweyo Jehova Nyasaye mi watiyo ne nyiseche mag Baal gi Ashtoreth. To koro sani reswa e lwet wasikwa mi wanatini.’

Sotheli afterward thei crieden to the Lord, and seiden, We synneden, for we forsoken the Lord, and seruyden Baalym and Astroth; now therfor delyuere thou vs fro `the hond of oure enemyes, and we schulen serue thee.

11 Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Jerub-Baal (ma bende iluongo ni Gideon), Barak (ma bende iluongo ni Bedan), Jeftha gi Samuel, kendo ne oresou kuom wasiku mane omonjou koa koni gi koni, momiyo udak gi kwe.

And the Lord sente Gerobaal, and `Bedan, that is, Sampson, and Barach, and Jepte, and Samuel, and delyuerede you fro the hond of youre enemyes bi cumpass; and ye dwelliden tristili.

12 “To kane uneno ka Nahash ruodh jo-Amon dwaro monjou, ne uwachona ni, ‘Nyaka wabed gi ruoth ma ritowa,’ kata obedo ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ne en ruodhu.

Forsothe ye sien, that Naas, kyng of the sones of Amon, cam ayens you; and ye seiden to me, counseilynge to axe noon other kyng than God, Nay, but a kyng schal comaunde to vs; whanne `youre Lord God regnede in you.

13 Koro neuru ma e ruoth ma useyiero, mane ukwayo; omiyo Jehova Nyasaye oseketo ruoth mondo oritu.

Now therfor youre kyng is redi, whom ye han chose and axid; lo! the Lord yaf to you a kyng.

14 Ka umiyo Jehova Nyasaye luor kendo kutiyone, ka uwinjo chikne kendo ok ungʼanyone chikene, un kaachiel gi ruodhu ma ritou mi uluwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, to mano ber.

If ye dreden the Lord, and seruen hym, and heren his vois, and wraththen not the `mouth of the Lord; ye and youre kyng, that comaundith to you, schulen sue youre Lord God.

15 To ka utamoru winjo Jehova Nyasaye, mi ungʼanyone chikene, to enokumu kaka ne okumo kwereu.

Forsothe if ye heren not the vois of `the Lord, but wraththen his word, the hond of the Lord schal be on you, and on youre fadris.

16 “Koro sani chungʼuru kar tiendu mondo une hono maduongʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye timo mana ka uneno!

But also now stonde ye, and se this gret thing which the Lord schal make in youre siyt.

17 Donge sani en ndalo mikayoe ngano? Abiro luongo Jehova Nyasaye mondo okel polo mamor gi koth. Eka ubiro ngʼeyo ni usetimo marach e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kuom kwayou mane upenjogo ruoth.”

Whether heruest of whete is not `to dai? I schal inwardli clepe the Lord, and he schal yyue voices, `that is, thundris, and reynes; and ye schulen wite, and schulen se, for ye axynge a kyng on you han do greuouse yuel to you in the siyt of the Lord.

18 Eka Samuel noluongo Jehova Nyasaye, kendo mana gi odiechiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nokelo mor polo gi koth. Omiyo ji duto nochungʼ ka luoro omakogi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod Samuel.

And Samuel criede to the Lord, and the Lord yaf voices and reynes in that dai.

19 Eka ji duto nowachone Samuel niya, “Lam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ni jotichni mondo kik watho, nimar wasemedo ewi richowa mamoko tim marach mar kwayo mondo miwa ruoth.”

And al the puple dredde greetli the Lord and Samuel; and al the puple seide to Samuel, Preye thou for thi seruauntis to thi Lord God, that we die not; for we addiden yuel to alle oure synnes, that we axiden a kyng to vs.

20 Samuel nodwokogi niya, “Kik ubed maluor. Kata obedo ni usetimo tim marachni, koro kik ulokru uwe Jehova Nyasaye, to tineuru gi chunyu duto.

Forsothe Samuel seide to the puple, `Nyle ye drede; ye han do al this yuel; netheles `nyle ye go awey fro the bak of the Lord, but serue ye the Lord in al youre herte;

21 Kik ulokru uluw nyiseche manono. Ok ginyal konyou, bende ok ginyal resou nikech gin gik manono.

and nyle ye bowe aftir veyn thingis, that schulen not profite to you, nether schulen delyuere you; for tho ben veyn thingis.

22 Nikech nyinge maduongʼ, Jehova Nyasaye ok nojwangʼ joge, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne mor mar timou joge owuon.

And the Lord schal not forsake his puple for his grete name; for the Lord swoor to make you a puple to hym silf.

23 Kata kamano, anto ok anyal ketho ni Jehova Nyasaye kuom weyo ma ok alemonu. To abiro puonjou yo maber kendo makare.

Forsothe this synne be fer fro me in the Lord, that Y ceesse to preye for you; and Y schal teche you a riytful weie and good.

24 Un to nyaka une ni uluoru Jehova Nyasaye, kendo utine gi adieri gi chunyu duto; parieuru gigo madongo mosetimonu.

Therfor drede ye the Lord, and `serue ye hym in treuthe, and of al youre herte; for ye sien tho grete thingis, whiche he `dide in you;

25 To ka usiko ka utimo marach, to un kaachiel gi ruodhu ibiro tieku.”

that if ye contynuen in malice, bothe ye and youre kyng schulen perische to gidere.
