< 1 Samuel 9 >

1 Ne nitie ja-Benjamin moro mongʼere ma nyinge Kish wuod Abiel, ma wuod Zeror, ma wuod Bekorath, ma wuod Afia ma ja-Benjamin.
Ɔbarima ɔdefoɔ bi a ɔdi mu tenaa ase a na ne din de Kis na ɔfiri Benyamin abusuakuo mu. Na ɔyɛ Abiel babarima, na ne nana ne Seror a ɔfiri Bekorat fie ne Afia abusua mu.
2 Ne en gi wuowi miluongo ni Saulo, ne en rawera ma jaber e kind jo-Israel bende ne en rabora ma ji moko ne rem mana e goke.
Na ne babarima Saulo ho yɛ fɛ yie sene obiara wɔ Israel. Na ɔware sene obiara firi nʼabati kɔsi ne tiri so wɔ asase no so.
3 Chiengʼ moro punde mag Kish wuon Saulo nolal kendo Kish nowachone wuode ma Saulo niya, “Kaw achiel kuom jotich mondo udhigo udwar punde.”
Ɛda bi Kis mfunumu yeraeɛ, na ɔka kyerɛɛ Saulo sɛ, “Fa asomfoɔ no mu baako, na wone no nkɔhwehwɛ mfunumu no.”
4 Omiyo nokadho e piny got mar Efraim kod alwora mar Shalisha, to ok ne giyudogi. Negidhiyo ma gichopo e gwenge mag Shaalim, to punde ne onge kuondego. Eka nokadho e piny Benjamin, to ne ok giyudogi.
Enti, Saulo faa asomfoɔ no mu baako. Wɔkɔfaa Efraim bepɔ asase, Salisa asase, Saalim fam ne Benyamin asase nyinaa so, nanso wɔanhunu mfunumu no baabiara.
5 Kane gichopo e gwenge mag Zuf, Saulo nowachone jatich mane ni kode niya, “Bi wadogi, dipo ka wuora oweyo paro punde kendo mochako mana parowa.”
Na wɔduruu Suf mansini mu no, Saulo ka kyerɛɛ ɔsomfoɔ a ɔka ne ho no sɛ, “Bra, ma yɛnsane nkɔ baabi a yɛfiri baeɛ, na ebia, mʼagya agyae mfunumu no ho dwene, ɛredwene yɛn ho mmom.”
6 To jatich nodwoke kawachone niya, “Iwinjo, e dalano nitiere ngʼat Nyasaye moro marahuma kendo gik mowacho duto timore mana kaka owacho. Bi wadhi ire koro nikech onyalo nyisowa yo monego waluw.”
Nanso, ɔsomfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Manya adwene bi, Onyame onipa bi te kuro yi mu a wɔbu no yie. Na asɛm biara a ɔbɛka nso ba mu. Ma yɛnkɔ ne hɔ seesei ara, ebia ɔbɛtumi akyerɛ yɛn baabi a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛfa.”
7 Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “To ka wadhi, en angʼo ma wabiro miyo ngʼatni? Chiemo mane ni e mifukewa oserumo. Waonge kod mich ma wanyalo tero ne ngʼat Nyasaye. En angʼo ma wan-go?”
Saulo buaa no sɛ, “Yɛnni hwee a yɛbɛtumi de akyɛ saa ɔbarima no, yɛn nnuane mpo asa, yɛnni biribiara a yɛde bɛma no.”
8 Jatich nowachone kendo niya, “An-gi pesa moko manok. Abiro miye ngʼat Nyasaye mondo onyiswa yo monego waluw.”
Ɔsomfoɔ no buaa no bio sɛ, “Hwɛ! Mewɔ dwetɛ gram mmiɛnsa. Yɛbɛtumi de ama no, na yɛahwɛ deɛ ɛbɛsie.”
9 Chon e piny Israel kane ngʼato dhi penjo Nyasaye wach ne owacho niya, “Bi wadhi ka Janen,” nikech ngʼat miluongo ni janabi ndaloni ne iluongo ni janen.
(Saa ɛberɛ no, sɛ nnipa rekɔbisa Onyankopɔn hɔ adeɛ a, wɔka sɛ, “Momma yɛnkɔbisa ademuhununi” ɛfiri sɛ, saa ɛberɛ no na wɔfrɛ adiyifoɔ ademuhunufoɔ.)
10 Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “Mano ber, bi wadhi.” Omiyo negiwuok ma gidhi e dala kama ngʼat Nyasaye nodakie.
Saulo penee so ka kyerɛɛ ne ɔsomfoɔ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, ma yɛnsɔ nhwɛ!” Enti, wɔsii mu kɔɔ kuro a Onyame onipa wɔ mu no so.
11 Kane giidho got matin-no ka gichomo dalano negiromo gi nyiri moko kadhi umbo pi kendo ne gipenjogi niya, “Bende ngʼat makoro nika?”
Wɔreforo bepɔ bi akɔ kuro no mu no, wɔhyiaa mmabaawa bi a wɔrekɔsa nsuo. Enti, Saulo ne ne ɔsomfoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ “Ademuhununi no wɔ ha ɛnnɛ?”
12 To negidwoko niya, “Ee entie, ero odhi nyimu kanyo, returu. Koro eka odonjo e dalawa kawuono nimar jowa timo misango e kama owal.”
Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Aane. Momfa ɛkwan yi so tee, na mobɛhunu sɛ ɔte kuro no apono ano hɔ. Ɔrebɛduru ha ara nie, na ɔno nso rebɛbɔ ɔmanfoɔ afɔdeɛ no bi wɔ bepɔ no so hɔ.
13 E sa ma usedonjo e dala to ubiro yudo kapok oidho odhi malo kama owal mondo ochiem. Ji ok bi chako chiemo nyaka ochopi, nikech nyaka ogwedh gir timo misango eka bangʼe jomo oluongi nyalo chiemo. Returu mapiyo sani ema unyalo yude.
Monka mo ho nkɔto no, ansa na waforo akɔ bepɔ no so akɔdidi. Nnipa no mfiri aseɛ nnidi kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛhyira aduane no so.”
14 Ne giwuotho mi gidhi nyaka dala, to kane gidonjo kanyo to negineno Samuel, kabiro gwenyore kodgi kochiko kama owal.
Enti, wɔkɔɔ kuro no mu. Na wɔrewura apono no mu no, na Samuel ani kyerɛ wɔn so a ɔrekɔforo bepɔ no.
15 To chiengʼ motelone biro mar Saulo, noyudo ka Jehova Nyasaye osefwenyo ma ne Samuel.
Na Awurade aka akyerɛ Samuel, ɛda a atwam no sɛ,
16 “Kiny kar sa ma kama abiro oro ngʼato moa e piny Benjamin. Wire mondo otel ne joga ma jo-Israel, enores joga e lwet jo-Filistia. Asekecho joga nimar ywakgi osechopona.”
“Ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ, mɛsoma obi afiri Benyamin asase so. Sra no ngo, na ɔmmɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ kannifoɔ. Ɔbɛgye wɔn afiri Filistifoɔ nsam. Mede ahummɔborɔ ahwɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mate wɔn sufrɛ.”
17 Kane Samuel ogoyo wangʼe kuom Saulo, Jehova Nyasaye ne owachone niya, “Ma e ngʼat mane awuoyoni kuome nibiro rito ogandana.”
Ɛberɛ a Samuel hunuu Saulo ara pɛ, Awurade kaa sɛ, “Yei ne ɔbarima a mekaa ne ho asɛm kyerɛɛ wo no. Ɔno na ɔbɛdi me nkurɔfoɔ so no.”
18 Saulo nodhi ir Samuel e dhorangach mopenje niya, “Kiyie to nyisa od janen?”
Ɛhɔ ara, Saulo kɔɔ Samuel nkyɛn wɔ abɔntenpono no ano kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Wobɛtumi akyerɛ me baabi a ademuhununi no fie wɔ anaa?”
19 Samuel nodwoke niya, “An e janen. Tel nyima idhi kama owal maler nimar kawuono ibiro chiemo koda kendo kiny gokinyi abiro weyi idhi kendo ananyisi mago duto man e chunyi.
Samuel buaa sɛ, “Mene adehunumuni no. Di mʼanim ɛkan wɔ bepɔ no so, kɔ baabi a wɔbɔ afɔdeɛ hɔ, na yɛn nyinaa bɛdidi wɔ hɔ. Anɔpa, mɛkyerɛ wo deɛ wopɛ sɛ wohunu, na magya wo ɛkwan.
20 Kor ka wach punde mane olal ndalo adek mokadho to owe chandi nimar oseyudgi. Koso en ngʼa ma chuny jo-Israel duto dwaro ka ok en in gi od wuonu?”
Na mfunumu a wɔyeraeɛ nnansa ne ɛnnɛ no, mma wɔn ho asɛm nha wo koraa, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔahunu wɔn. Na mepɛ sɛ meka kyerɛ wo sɛ, Israel anidasoɔ nyinaa yɛ wo ne wo fiefoɔ.”
21 Saulo nodwoko niya, “Donge an ja-Benjamin, oganda matin ahinya ei Israel, to donge dhoodwa bende e dhoot matin, moloyo ei oganda mar Benjamin? Angʼo momiyo iwacho wechegi kuoma?”
Saulo buaa sɛ, “Mefiri Benyamin a ɛyɛ abusua ketewa koraa wɔ mmusuakuo no mu. Na me fie nso yɛ ketewa koraa wɔ Benyamin mmusua no nyinaa mu. Na adɛn enti na woka yei kyerɛ me?”
22 Eka Samuel nokelo Saulo gi jatije kar budho moketogi gibet e kom manyime kuom ji duto mane oluongo mane nyalo romo ji piero adek.
Enti, Samuel de Saulo ne ne ɔsomfoɔ no baa asa so hɔ. Ɔmaa wɔtenaa wɔn a wɔato nsa afrɛ wɔn no ɛpono ti, de hyɛɛ wɔn animuonyam wɔ nnipa dodoɔ bɛyɛ sɛ aduasa no anim.
23 Samuel ne onyiso jatedo niya, “Kel lemo mar ringʼo mane amiyi, mane anyisi ni iket tenge.”
Samuel ka kyerɛɛ osoodoni no sɛ, “Fa ɛnam sini a mede maa wo no bra, deɛ wɔde asie ama deɛ wɔrehyɛ no animuonyam no.”
24 Eka jatedo nokawo em gi sembe moketo e nyim Saulo. Samuel nowacho niya, “Ma e gima nokan-ni, cham, nikech nokan-nigo ne nyasini, chakre e kinde mane aluongoe welo.” Eka Saulo nochiemo gi Samuel chiengʼno.
Enti, osoodoni no de ba bɛtoo Saulo anim. Samuel kaa sɛ, “Di deɛ wɔde asi wʼanim no. Mede sie maa wo ansa na mereto nsa afrɛ afoforɔ yi.” Enti Saulo ne Samuel didiiɛ.
25 Kane gisea e kama owal mi gidwogo e dala, Samuel nowuoyo gi Saulo ka gin kode ewi ode malo.
Apontoɔ no akyi a wɔsane baa kuro no mu no, Samuel de Saulo kɔɔ atifi dan mu kɔsiesie daberɛ maa no.
26 Ne gichiewo ka piny yawore, eka Samuel noluongo Saulo ewi ot, kowachone niya, “Ikri abiro gonyi mondo ichak wuodhi.” Kane Saulo oseikore, en kod Samuel ne giwuok oko.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpa no, Samuel kɔɔ Saulo nkyɛn kɔfrɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɔre! Anka ɛsɛ sɛ saa ɛberɛ yi wonam ɛkwan so.” Enti, Saulo siesiee ne ho na ɔne Samuel nyinaa bɔɔ mu firii efie hɔ.
27 Kane oyudo gin e bath dala, Samuel nowachone Saulo niya, “Nyis jatichni mondo otel, in to dongʼ chien mondo amiyi wach moa kuom Nyasaye.” Omiyo jatijno notimo kamano.
Wɔduruu kurotia no, Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Saulo sɛ ɔnsoma ne ɔsomfoɔ no nni wɔn ɛkan. Ɔsomfoɔ no kɔeɛ no, Samuel kaa sɛ, “Tena ha, ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn de nkra sononko bi ama me a, ɛsɛ sɛ meka kyerɛ wo.”
