1 Samuel 10
1 Then Samuel took a flask of oil, poured it on Saul’s head, kissed him, and said, “Has not the LORD anointed you ruler over His inheritance?
Samuẹli sì mú ìgò kékeré tí òróró wà nínú rẹ̀, ó sì dà á sí orí Saulu. Ó sì fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹnu, wí pé, “Olúwa kò ha tí fi òróró yàn ọ ní olórí lórí ohun ìní rẹ̀?
2 When you leave me today, you will find two men at Rachel’s tomb in Zelzah on the border of Benjamin. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys you seek have been found, and now your father has stopped worrying about the donkeys and started worrying about you, asking, “What should I do about my son?”’
Bí ìwọ bá kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi lónìí, ìwọ yóò bá ọkùnrin méjì pàdé lẹ́bàá ibojì Rakeli ní Selsa, ní agbègbè Benjamini. Wọ́n yóò sọ fún ọ pé, ‘Kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tí ìwọ jáde lọ láti wá ní wọn tí rí. Nísinsin yìí, baba à rẹ tí dákẹ́ kò ronú nípa wọn mọ́, ó sì ń dààmú nípa à rẹ. Ó ń béèrè, “Kí ni èmi yóò ṣe nípa ọmọ mi?”’
3 Then you will go on from there until you come to the Oak of Tabor. Three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you there, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.
“Nígbà náà, ìwọ yóò lọ láti ibẹ̀ títí yóò fi dé ibi igi ńlá Tabori. Ọkùnrin mẹ́ta tí wọ́n ń gòkè lọ sọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run ní Beteli yóò pàdé rẹ níbẹ̀. Ọ̀kan yóò mú ọmọ ewúrẹ́ mẹ́ta lọ́wọ́, èkejì, ìṣù àkàrà mẹ́ta àti ẹ̀kẹta yóò mú ìgò wáìnì.
4 They will greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you will accept from their hands.
Wọ́n yóò kí ọ, wọn yóò sì fún ọ ní ìṣù àkàrà méjì, tí ìwọ yóò gbà lọ́wọ́ wọn.
5 After that you will come to Gibeah of God, where the Philistines have an outpost. As you approach the city, you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place, preceded by harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be prophesying.
“Lẹ́yìn náà, ìwọ yóò lọ sí òkè Ọlọ́run, níbi tí ẹgbẹ́ ogun àwọn Filistini wà. Bí ìwọ ti ń súnmọ́ ìlú náà, ìwọ yóò bá àwọn wòlíì tí ó tò lọ́wọ̀ọ̀wọ́ bọ̀ láti ibi gíga, pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin olókùn, tambori àti fèrè àti haapu níwájú wọn, wọn yóò sì máa sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀.
6 Then the Spirit of the LORD will rush upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be transformed into a different person.
Ẹ̀mí Olúwa yóò sì bà lé ọ, ìwọ yóò sì sọtẹ́lẹ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn, ìwọ yóò sì di ẹni ọ̀tọ̀.
7 When these signs have come, do as the occasion demands, for God is with you.
Bí ìwọ bá ti rí àmì wọ̀nyí, ṣe ohunkóhun tí ọwọ́ rẹ bá bà láti ṣe, nítorí Ọlọ́run wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.
8 And you shall go before me to Gilgal, and surely I will come to you to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice peace offerings. Wait seven days until I come to you and show you what you are to do.”
“Lọ ṣáájú mi sí Gilgali. Èmi yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ̀ ọ́ wá láti rú ẹbọ sísun àti láti rú ẹbọ ìrẹ́pọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ gbọdọ̀ dúró fún ọjọ́ méje títí èmi yóò fi wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ láti sọ fún ọ ohun tí ó yẹ tí ìwọ yóò ṣe.”
9 As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul’s heart, and all the signs came to pass that day.
Bí Saulu ti yípadà láti fi Samuẹli sílẹ̀, Ọlọ́run yí ọkàn Saulu padà àti pé gbogbo àmì wọ̀nyí sì wá sí ìmúṣẹ ní ọjọ́ náà.
10 When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them.
Nígbà tí wọ́n dé òkè Gibeah náà, àwọn wòlíì tí ó ń tò ní ọ̀wọ̀ọ̀wọ́ pàdé rẹ̀, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run bà lé e nínú agbára, ó sì darapọ̀ bá wọ́n sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀.
11 All those who had formerly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti mọ̀ ọ́n tẹ́lẹ̀ rí i tó ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn wòlíì, wọ́n bi ara wọn, “Kí ni ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀ sí ọmọ Kiṣi yìí. Ṣé Saulu wà lára àwọn wòlíì ni?”
12 Then a man who lived there replied, “And who is their father?” So the saying became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Ọkùnrin kan tí ó ń gbé níbẹ̀ dáhùn pé, “Ta ni baba wọn?” Ó ti di ohun tí a fi ń pa òwe pé, ǹjẹ́ Saulu náà wà lára àwọn wòlíì bí?
13 And when Saul had finished prophesying, he went up to the high place.
Lẹ́yìn tí Saulu dákẹ́ sísọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀, ó lọ sí ibi gíga.
14 Now Saul’s uncle asked him and his servant, “Where did you go?” “To look for the donkeys,” Saul replied. “When we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel.”
Nísinsin yìí, arákùnrin baba Saulu béèrè lọ́wọ́ Saulu àti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Níbo ni ẹ lọ?” Ó wí pé, “À ń wá àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́,” ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí a kò rí wọn, a lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Samuẹli.
15 “Tell me,” Saul’s uncle asked, “what did Samuel say to you?”
Arákùnrin baba Saulu wí pé, “Sọ fún mi ohun tí Samuẹli wí fún un yín.”
16 And Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But Saul did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.
Saulu dáhùn pé, “Ó fi dá wa lójú pé wọ́n ti rí àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà.” Ṣùgbọ́n kò sọ fún arákùnrin baba a rẹ̀ ohun tí Samuẹli sọ nípa ọba jíjẹ.
17 After this, Samuel summoned the people to the LORD at Mizpah
Samuẹli pé àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jọ sí iwájú Olúwa ní Mispa.
18 and said to the Israelites, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I brought Israel up out of Egypt, and I rescued you from the hands of the Egyptians and of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.’
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ, ‘Èmi mú Israẹli jáde wá láti Ejibiti, Èmi sì gbà yín kúrò lọ́wọ́ agbára Ejibiti àti gbogbo ìjọba tí ó ń pọ́n ọn yín lójú.’
19 But today you have rejected your God, who saves you from all your troubles and afflictions, and you have said to Him, ‘No, set a king over us.’ Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and clans.”
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin ti kọ Ọlọ́run yín, tí ó gbà yín kúrò nínú gbogbo wàhálà àti ìpọ́njú yín. Ẹ̀yin sì ti sọ pé, ‘Rárá, yan ọba kan fún wa.’ Báyìí, ẹ kó ara yín jọ níwájú Olúwa ní ẹ̀yà àti ìdílé yín.”
20 Thus Samuel had all the tribes of Israel come forward, and the tribe of Benjamin was selected.
Nígbà tí Samuẹli mú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli súnmọ́ tòsí, ó yan ẹ̀yà Benjamini.
21 Then he had the tribe of Benjamin come forward by its clans, and the clan of Matri was selected. Finally, Saul son of Kish was selected. But when they looked for him, they could not find him.
Ó kó ẹ̀yà Benjamini síwájú ní ìdílé ìdílé, a sì yan ìdílé Matiri. Ní ìparí a sì yan Saulu ọmọ Kiṣi. Ṣùgbọ́n ní ìgbà tí wọ́n wá a, a kò rí i,
22 So again they inquired of the LORD, “Has the man come here yet?” And the LORD replied, “Behold, he has hidden himself among the baggage.”
bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n ṣe ìwádìí lọ́wọ́ Olúwa pé, “Ṣé ọkùnrin náà ti wá sí bí ni?” Olúwa sì sọ pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó ti fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ láàrín àwọn ẹrù.”
23 So they ran and brought Saul, and when he stood among the people, he was a head taller than any of the others.
Wọ́n sáré, wọ́n sì mú un jáde wá. Bí ó ti dúró láàrín àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì ga ju gbogbo àwọn tí ó kù lọ láti èjìká rẹ̀ sókè.
24 Samuel said to all the people, “Do you see the one the LORD has chosen? There is no one like him among all the people.” And all the people shouted, “Long live the king!”
Samuẹli sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ṣé ẹ ti ri ọkùnrin tí Olúwa ti yàn? Kò sí ẹnìkan bí i rẹ̀ láàrín gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn.” Nígbà náà àwọn ènìyàn kígbe pé, “Kí ẹ̀mí ọba kí ó gùn!”
25 Then Samuel explained to the people the rights of kingship. He wrote them on a scroll and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, each to his own home.
Samuẹli ṣàlàyé fún àwọn ènìyàn àwọn ìlànà ìjọba. Ó kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé, ó sì fi lélẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa. Lẹ́yìn náà, Samuẹli tú àwọn ènìyàn ká olúkúlùkù sí ilé e rẹ̀.
26 Saul also went to his home in Gibeah, and the men of valor whose hearts God had touched went with him.
Saulu náà padà sí ilé e rẹ̀ ní Gibeah. Àwọn akọni ọkùnrin tí Ọlọ́run ti fi ọwọ́ tọ́ ọkàn wọ́n sì sìn ín.
27 But some worthless men said, “How can this man save us?” So they despised him and brought him no gifts; but Saul remained silent about it.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Beliali wí pé, “Báwo ni ọkùnrin yìí yóò ti ṣe gbà wá?” Wọ́n kẹ́gàn rẹ̀, wọn kò sì mú ẹ̀bùn wá fún un, ṣùgbọ́n Saulu fọwọ́ lérán.
