1 Jo-Kiriath Jearim nobiro mokawo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ne gitere e od Abinadab mane ni e got, kendo negiwalo Eliazar ma wuode mondo orit Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Choncho anthu a ku Kiriati-Yearimu anabwera ndi kudzatenga Bokosi la Yehova. Iwo anapita nalo ku nyumba ya Abinadabu ya ku phiri ndipo anapatula Eliezara mwana wake kuti aziyangʼanira Bokosi la Yehovalo.
2 Sandug Muma nobudho Kiriath Jearim kuom higni piero ariyo, jo-Israel duto nokuyo mi odok ir Jehova Nyasaye.
Zaka makumi awiri zinapita kuyambira pamene Bokosi la Yehova linakhala ku Kiriati-Yearimu, ndipo anthu a Israeli onse analira kupempha Yehova kuti awathandize.
3 Kendo Samuel nowachone jo-Israel duto niya, “Ka udwogo ir Jehova Nyasaye gi chunyu duto, to goluru nyiseche mag jopinje mamoko ma un-go kod mag Ashtoreth, to chiwreuru ni Jehova Nyasaye kendo en kende ema utine, mi noresu kogolou e lwet jo-Filistia.”
Ndipo Samueli anati kwa nyumba yonse ya Israeli, “Ngati mukubwerera kwa Yehova ndi mtima wanu wonse, muchotse milungu yachilendo ndi Asiteroti pakati panu ndipo mitima yanu ikhazikike pa Yehova ndi kutumikira Iye yekha. Mukatero Iye adzakupulumutsani mʼmanja mwa Afilisti.”
4 Omiyo jo-Israel nogolo mowito nyisechegi mag Baal gi mag Ashtoreth; mine gitiyo ne Jehova Nyasaye kende.
Choncho Aisraeli anachotsa milungu yawo ya Baala ndi Asitoreti ndi kutumikira Yehova yekha.
5 Eka Samuel nowacho niya, “Chokuru jo-Israel duto Mizpa, anto abiro lemo ka akwayonu Jehova Nyasaye.”
Kenaka Samueli anati, “Sonkhanitsani Aisraeli onse ku Mizipa ndipo ine ndidzakupemphererani kwa Yehova.”
6 Kane gisechokore kanyakla Mizpa ne giumbo pi mi gipuko e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Odiechiengno negitweyo chiemo ka gihulo richo kagiwacho niya, “Waseketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.” Kendo Samuel nobedo jatend Israel e piny Mizpa.
Choncho anasonkhana ku Mizipa, ndipo anatunga madzi ndi kuwathira pansi pamaso pa Yehova. Pa tsiku limenelo anasala kudya namanena kuti, “Ife tachimwira Yehova.” Ndipo Samueli anali mtsogoleri wa Israeli ku Mizipa.
7 Kane jo-Filistia owinjo ni jo-Israel nosechokore Mizpa, ruodhi mag jo-Filistia nobiro mondo omonjgi. To kane jo-Israel owinjo wachno, luoro nomakogi.
Afilisti anamva kuti Aisraeli asonkhana ku Mizipa, choncho akalonga awo anabwera kudzawathira nkhondo. Ndipo Aisraeli atamva anachita mantha chifukwa cha Afilisti.
8 Negiwachone Samuel niya, “Kik iwe ma ok ikwayonwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa mondo omi oreswa e lwet jo-Filistia.”
Choncho anati kwa Samueli, “Musasiye kutipempherera kwa Yehova Mulungu wathu, kuti atipulumutse mʼdzanja la Afilistiwa.”
9 Eka Samuel nokawo nyarombo ma pod dhoth mi ochiwo ka misango miwangʼo pep ni Jehova Nyasaye. Noywak ni Jehova Nyasaye e lo jo-Israel, mi Jehova Nyasaye ne odwoke.
Ndipo Samueli anatenga mwana wankhosa wamkazi woyamwa ndi kumupereka monga nsembe yopsereza kwa Yehova. Iye anapemphera kwa Yehova mʼmalo mwa Aisraeli, ndipo Yehova anamuyankha.
10 Kane Samuel pod chiwo misango miwangʼo pep, jo-Filistia noyworo machiegni mondo oked gi jo-Israel. To chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo polo omor matek kuom jo-Filistia manomiyogi luoro ma gikee ka gikia kuma gidhiye, kendo negiringo e nyim jo-Israel.
Samueli akupereka nsembe yopsereza, Afilisti anayandikira kuti ayambe kuwathira nkhondo Aisraeli. Koma tsiku limenelo Yehova anawaopseza Afilisti aja ndi mawu aakulu ngati bingu. Choncho anasokonezeka motero kuti Aisraeli anawagonjetsa.
11 Jo-Israel nowuok Mizpa molawo jo-Filistia ma ginegogi e yo nyaka Beth-Kar.
Aisraeli anatuluka ku Mizipa kuthamangitsa Afilisti aja nʼkumawapha mʼnjira yonse mpaka kumunsi kwa Beti-Kari.
12 Eka Samuel nokawo kidi mochungo e kind Mizpa gi Shen. Nochake ni Ebeneza kowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osekonyowa nyaka ka.”
Kenaka Samueli anatenga mwala nawuyika pakati pa Mizipa ndi Seni. Iye anawutcha Ebenezeri, popeza anati, “Yehova watithandiza mpaka pano.”
13 Omiyo jo-Filistia nolo mine ok gichako gimonjo piny jo-Israel kendo. E kinde duto mane Samuel pod ngima, lwet Jehova Nyasaye nosando jo-Filistia.
Kotero Afilisti anagonjetsedwa ndipo sanadzalowenso mʼdziko la Israeli. Yehova analimbana ndi Afilisti masiku onse a Samueli.
14 Mier mane jo-Filistia omayo jo-Israel kochakore Ekron nyaka Gath nodwoknegi, Israel noreso gwenge mane okiewo kode koa e loch jo-Filistia. Kendo kwe nobedo e kind Israel gi jo-Amor.
Mizinda yonse imene Afilisti analanda kuchokera ku Ekroni mpaka ku Gati inabwezedwa kwa Aisraeli. Choncho Aisraeli anapulumutsa dziko lawo. Ndipo panalinso mtendere pakati pa Aisraeli ndi Aamori.
15 Samuel nobedo jangʼad bura e piny Israel e ndalo duto mag ngimane.
Samueli anatsogolera Aisraeli moyo wake wonse.
16 Higa ka higa nolworore koa Bethel nyaka Gilgal gi Mizpa kongʼado bura ne jo-Israel kuonde duto.
Chaka ndi chaka Samueli ankakonza ulendo wozungulira kuchokera ku Beteli mpaka ku Giligala ndi Mizipa, kuweruza milandu ya Aisraeli mʼmadera onsewa.
17 To kinde duto ne odokga Rama, kuma dalane ne nitie, kanyo bende ne ongʼadoe bura ne jo-Israel. Ne ogero kendo mar misango ne Jehova Nyasaye kanyo.
Koma pambuyo pake ankabwerera ku Rama, kumene kunali nyumba yake. Ankaweruza Aisraeli kumeneko. Ndipo iye anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova kumeneko.
