1 Samuel 15
1 Samuel nowachone ne Saulo niya, “An ema Jehova Nyasaye noora mondo awiri ibed ruodh joge Israel; omiyo koro lingʼ iwinj wach moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
And he said Samuel to Saul me he sent Yahweh to anoint you to king over people his over Israel and therefore listen to [the] voice of [the] words of Yahweh.
2 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Abiro kumo jo-Amalek kuom gima negitimo ni jo-Israel kaka ne gigengʼonegi e kinde mane gia Misri.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts I have paid attention to [that] which it did Amalek to Israel [that] which it set to it on the way when came up it from Egypt.
3 Koro dhiyo imonj jo-Amalek kendo itiek gimoro amora ma mekgi. Kik iwegi; neg chwo gi mon, gi rowere gi nyithindo madhoth, dhok, rombe, ngamia gi punde.’”
Now go and you will attack Amalek and you will totally destroy all that [belongs] to it and not you must have compassion on it and you will put to death from a man unto a woman from a child and unto a suckling-child from an ox and unto a sheep from a camel and unto a donkey.
4 Omiyo Saulo noluongo joge Telaim mokwanogi kendo negiromo jolweny alufu mia ariyo mawuotho gi tiendegi to gi alufu apar moa Juda.
And he summoned Saul the people and he mustered them at Telaim two hundred thousand foot soldier[s] and ten thousand with man of Judah.
5 Saulo nodhi e dala maduongʼ mar jo-Amalek koikore monjogi e holo.
And he came Saul to [the] city of Amalek and he lay in wait in the wadi.
6 Eka nowachone jo-Keni niya, “Auru ka udhi mondo uwe jo-Amalek nikech ok adwar tiekou kodgi; nikech un ne utimo ngʼwono ni jo-Israel e kinde mane gia Misri.” Omiyo jo-Keni nowuok moweyo jo-Amalek.
And he said Saul to the Kenite[s] go depart go down from among [the] Amalekite[s] lest I should destroy you with it and you you did loyalty with all [the] people of Israel when came up they from Egypt and it departed [the] Kenite[s] from among Amalek.
7 Eka Saulo nokedo gi jo-Amalek kochakore Havila nyaka ochopo Shur to nyaka ochopo yo wuok chiengʼ mar Misri.
And he attacked Saul Amalek from Havilah coming you Shur which [is] on [the] face of Egypt.
8 Nomako Agag ruoth jo-Amalek kangima to joge duto to nonego gi ligangla pep.
And he seized Agag [the] king of Amalek alive and all the people he totally destroyed to [the] mouth of [the] sword.
9 To Saulo gi jolweny noweyo Agag kod rombe mabeyo, gi dhok, gi nyiroye machwe gi nyirombe kod gimoro amora maber. Magi to ne ok giyie mondo oketh duto, to gimoro amora mane gichayo gi mago mayom yom to negitieko pep.
And he had compassion Saul and the people on Agag and on [the] best of the sheep and the cattle and the second and on the lambs and on all the good and not they were willing to totally destroy them and all the property despised and worthless it they totally destroyed.
10 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Samuel kawacho niya,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Samuel saying.
11 “Akuyo nikech ne aketo Saulo obedo ruoth, nikech oseweyo luwa, kendo ok otimo kaka ne achike.” Samuel nochandore kendo noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye otieno mangima.
I regret that I have made king Saul to king for he has turned back from after me and words my not he has carried out and it burned to Samuel and he cried out to Yahweh all the night.
12 Samuel nochiew okinyi mangʼich kendo nodhi romo gi Saulo, mi nowachne niya, “Saulo osedhi Karmel. Kanyo osechungoe rapar mimiyego duongʼ kuno kendo osewuok kuno olor kodhi Gilgal.”
And he rose early Samuel to meet Saul in the morning and it was told to Samuel saying he came Saul Carmel towards and there! [he was] setting up for himself a monument and he turned and he passed on and he went down Gilgal.
13 Kane Samuel obiro ire, Saulo nowachone niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye gwedhi! Asetimo duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochika.”
And he came Samuel to Saul and he said to him Saul [be] blessed you by Yahweh I have carried out [the] word of Yahweh.
14 To Samuel nowachone niya, “Marangʼo awinjo ywak rombe gi dhok e ita?”
And he said Samuel and what? [is] [the] sound of the sheep this in ears my and [the] sound of the cattle which I [am] hearing.
15 Saulo nodwoko niya, “Jolweny nokelogi koa kuom jo-Amalek; negiweyo rombe kod dhok mabeyo mondo gitimgo misango ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi, to modongʼ wanego pep.”
And he said Saul from [the] Amalekite[s] people brought them that it had compassion the people on [the] best of the sheep and the cattle so as to sacrifice [them] to Yahweh God your and the rest we totally destroyed.
16 Samuel nowachone Saulo niya, “Lingʼ thi! We mondo anyisi gima Jehova Nyasaye nowachona otieno mokalo.” Saulo nodwoko niya, “Nyisawa.”
And he said Samuel to Saul be quiet so let me tell to you [that] which he said Yahweh to me this night (and he said *Q(K)*) to him speak.
17 Samuel nowachone niya, “Kata nobedo ni inenori ka ngʼama tin kamano, to donge ne ibedo jatelo mar dhout Israel? Jehova Nyasaye ne owiri mondo ibed ruodh Israel.
And he said Samuel ¿ not though [were] small you in own eyes your [the] head of [the] tribes of Israel [are] you and he anointed you Yahweh to king over Israel.
18 Kendo ne omiyi ote, kowacho ni, ‘Dhiyo mondo itiek chuth jo-Amalek marichogi; ked kodgi nyaka ine ni itiekogi pep.’
And he sent you Yahweh on a journey and he said go and you will totally destroy the sinners Amalek and you will wage war against it until destroy they them.
19 Angʼo momiyo ne ok iwinjo dwond Jehova Nyasaye? Angʼo momiyo ne imuomori mi iyeko kendo itimo richo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye?”
And why? not did you listen to [the] voice of Yahweh and did you rush? to the plunder and did you do? the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
20 Saulo nowacho niya, “To ne awinjo dwond Jehova Nyasaye ma atimo dwarone kendo atimo tich mane omiya mondo atim. Ne anego jo-Amalek pep kendo ne akawo Agag ruodhgi mi abirogo.
And he said Saul to Samuel that I listened to [the] voice of Yahweh and I went on the journey which he sent me Yahweh and I brought Agag [the] king of Amalek and Amalek I totally destroyed.
21 Jolweny nokawo rombe gi dhok kuom gik moyaki, gigo mabeyo nowal ne Nyasaye mondo otimnego Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi misango Gilgal.”
And it took the people from the plunder sheep and cattle [the] choicest of the object[s] for destruction to sacrifice [them] to Yahweh God your in Gilgal.
22 Samuel nodwoke niya, “Iparo ni Jehova Nyasaye mor gi chiwo kod misengini miwangʼo pep moloyo winjo dwonde? Winjo wach ber moloyo chiwo misango kendo chiko it ber moloyo boche imbe,
And he said Samuel ¿ [does] delight [belong] to Yahweh in burnt offerings and sacrifices like listening to [the] voice of Yahweh here! to obey more than sacrifice [is] good to pay attention more than [the] fat of rams.
23 nimar ngʼanyo chal gi richo mar jwok, to tok teko chalo gi richo mar lamo nyiseche manono. Nikech isedagi wach Jehova Nyasaye En bende osedagi ni kik ibed ruoth.”
For [is the] sin of divination rebellion and [is] wickedness and teraphim presumption because you have rejected [the] word of Yahweh and he has rejected you from king.
24 Eka Saulo nowachone Samuel niya. “Asetimo richo. Asetamora luwo chik Jehova Nyasaye kod wecheni bende. Ne aluoro ji kendo ne atimo dwarogi.
And he said Saul to Samuel I have sinned for I have transgressed [the] mouth of Yahweh and words your for I feared the people and I listened to voice their.
25 Koro sani asayi ni iwena richona kendo wadog kodi mondo mi alam Jehova Nyasaye.”
And therefore forgive please sin my and return with me so I may bow down to Yahweh.
26 To Samuel nowachone niya, “Ok anyal dok kodi. Isedagi luwo wach Jehova Nyasaye, kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye bende osedagi ni kik ibed ruodh Israel!”
And he said Samuel to Saul not I will return with you for you have rejected [the] word of Yahweh and he has rejected you Yahweh from being king over Israel.
27 Kane Samuel ochako wuoth mondo odhi, Saulo nomako riak lawe, mi oyiech.
And he turned round Samuel to go and he took hold on [the] skirt of robe his and it tore.
28 Samuel nowachone niya, “Jehova Nyasaye oseyiecho pinyruodh Israel kogole kuomi kawuononi kendo osemiye ja-libambau moro maber moloyi.
And he said to him Samuel he has torn Yahweh [the] kingdom of Israel from with you this day and he will give it to neighbor your good more than you.
29 Jalno ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maduongʼ mar Israel ok riambi bende ok olok pache; nimar ok en dhano mondo olok pache.”
And also [the] eminence of Israel not he will deal falsely and not he will regret for not [is] a man he to regret.
30 Saulo nodwoko niya, “Asetimo richo. To kiyie to miya luor e nyim jodong joga kendo e nyim jo-Israel; dog koda mondo mi alam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi.”
And he said I have sinned now honor me please before [the] elders of people my and before Israel and return with me and I will bow down to Yahweh God your.
31 Omiyo Samuel nodok gi Saulo, kendo Saulo nolamo Jehova Nyasaye.
And he turned back Samuel after Saul and he bowed down Saul to Yahweh.
32 Eka Samuel nowacho niya, “Kelna Agag ruodh jo-Amalek.” Omiyo Agag nobiro ire ka en gi chir koparo e chunye niya, “Lit mar tho osekadho.”
And he said Samuel bring near to me Agag [the] king of Amalek and he came to him Agag bonds and he said Agag truly it has departed [the] bitterness of death.
33 To Samuel nowacho niya, “Kaka liganglani osemiyo mon owe maonge nyithindo, e kaka minu nobed maonge nyathi e kind mon mamoko.” Eka Samuel nonego Agag e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, Gilgal.
And he said Samuel just as it has made childless women sword your so she will become childless from women mother your and he cut to pieces Samuel Agag before Yahweh in Gilgal.
34 Eka Samuel nowuok modhi Rama, to Saulo bende nodok dalane Gibea.
And he went Samuel Ramah towards and Saul he went up to house his Gibeah of Saul.
35 Nyaka chop odiechiengʼ mane Samuel othoe, ne ok ochako oneno Saulo kendo, kata obedo ni Samuel ne oywage kamano. Jehova Nyasaye ne okuyo nikech ne oketo Saulo obedo ruodh Israel.
And not he repeated Samuel to see Saul until [the] day of death his for he mourned Samuel concerning Saul and Yahweh he regretted that he had made king Saul over Israel.
