< 1 Samuel 12 >

1 Then Samuel said to all Israel, “I have listened to your voice in all that you have said to me, and I have set over you a king.
Kinuna ni Samuel iti entero nga Israel, “Tinungpalko dagiti amin nga imbagayo kaniak, ket nangisaadak iti maysa nga ari kadakayo.
2 Now here is the king walking before you, and I am old and gray, and my sons are here with you. I have walked before you from my youth until this day.
Ita, adtoy a magmagna ti ari iti sangoananyo; ket lakay ken ubananakon; ken, kaduayo dagiti annakko a lallaki. Indauloankayo sipud pat iti kinaubingko agingga ita nga aldaw.
3 Here I am. Bear witness against me before the LORD and before His anointed: Whose ox or donkey have I taken? Whom have I cheated or oppressed? From whose hand have I accepted a bribe and closed my eyes? Tell me, and I will restore it to you.”
Adtoyak; agsaksikayo a maibusor kaniak iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ken iti sangoanan ti pinulotanna. Siasino koma ti akinbaka ti innalak? Siasino koma ti akin-asno ti innalak? Siasino koma ti kinaurko? Siasino koma ti indadanesko? Siasino koma ti akin-ima ti nangalaak iti pasuksok tapno pakabulsekan dagiti matak? Agsaksikayo maibusor kaniak, ket isublik daytoy kadakayo.”
4 “You have not wronged us or oppressed us,” they replied, “nor have you taken anything from the hand of man.”
Kinunada, “Saannakami a kinaur, indadanes, wenno tinakawan iti aniaman a banag manipud iti siasinoman a tao.”
5 Samuel said to them, “The LORD is a witness against you, and His anointed is a witness today, that you have not found anything in my hand.” “He is a witness,” they replied.
Kinunana kadakuada, “Saksi ni Yahweh maibusor kadakayo, ken saksi ti pinulotanna ita nga aldaw, nga awan ti masarakanyo imak.” Ket simmungbatda, “Saksi ni Yahweh.”
6 Then Samuel said to the people, “The LORD is the One who appointed Moses and Aaron, and who brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.
Kinuna ni Samuel kadagiti tattao, “Ni Yahweh ti nangdutok kada Moises ken Aaron, ken nangiruar kadagiti ammayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto.
7 Now present yourselves, so that I may confront you before the LORD with all the righteous acts He has done for you and your fathers.
Ita ngarud, idatagyo dagiti bagbagiyo, tapno mailawlawagko koma kadakayo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ti maipapan iti amin a nalinteg nga inar-aramid ni Yahweh, nga inaramidna kadakayo ken kadagiti ammayo.
8 When Jacob went to Egypt, your fathers cried out to the LORD, and He sent them Moses and Aaron, who brought your fathers out of Egypt and settled them in this place.
Idi napan ni Jacob iti Egipto, ken immasug dagiti kapuonanyo kenni Yahweh. Imbaon ni Yahweh da Moises ken Aaron, a nangiruar kadagiti kapuonanyo iti Egipto ken nagnaedda iti daytoy a lugar.
9 But they forgot the LORD their God, and He sold them into the hand of Sisera the commander of the army of Hazor, and into the hands of the Philistines and the king of Moab, who fought against them.
Ngem nalipatanda ni Yahweh a Diosda; inlakona ida iti ima ni Sisera a kapitan dagiti armada ti Hasor, iti ima dagiti Filisteo, ken iti ima ti ari ti Moab; nakiranget amin dagitoy maibusor kadagiti kapuonanyo.
10 Then they cried out to the LORD and said, ‘We have sinned, for we have forsaken the LORD and served the Baals and Ashtoreths. Now deliver us from the hands of our enemies, that we may serve You.’
Immasugda kenni Yahweh ket kinunada, 'Nagbasolkami, gapu ta tinallikudanmi ni Yahweh ket nagserbikami kadagiti Baal ken kadagiti Astarte. Ngem ita ispalennakami manipud iti ima dagiti kabusormi, ket agserbikaminto kenka.'
11 So the LORD sent Jerubbaal, Barak, Jephthah, and Samuel, and He delivered you from the hands of your enemies on every side, and you dwelt securely.
Isu nga imbaon ni Yahweh da Jerub Baal, Bedan, Jepta, ken Samuel, ket pinagballiginakayo kadagiti kabusoryo iti amin nga aglawlawyo, iti kasta nagbiagkayo a sitatalged.
12 But when you saw that Nahash king of the Ammonites was moving against you, you said to me, ‘No, we must have a king to rule over us’—even though the LORD your God was your king.
Idi nakitayo nga immay ni Nahas nga ari dagiti tattao iti Ammon maibusor kadakayo, kinunayo kaniak, 'Saan! Ngem ketdi, maysa nga ari ti masapul nga agturay kadakami' - uray no ni Yahweh a Diosyo, ti ariyo.
13 Now here is the king you have chosen, the one you requested. Behold, the LORD has placed a king over you.
Ita, adtoy ti ari a piniliyo, a kiniddawyo ken dinutokan itan ni Yahweh a mangituray kadakayo.
14 If you fear the LORD and serve Him and obey His voice, and if you do not rebel against the command of the LORD, and if both you and the king who reigns over you follow the LORD your God, then all will be well.
No agbutengkayo kenni Yahweh, agserbikayo kenkuana, agtulnogkayo iti timekna, ken saankayo nga agsukir iti bilin ni Yahweh, dakayo ngarud ken ti ari nga agturay kadakayo ket agpadanto nga agbalin a pasurot ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
15 But if you disobey the LORD and rebel against His command, then the hand of the LORD will be against you as it was against your fathers.
No saanyo a tungpalen ti timek ni Yahweh, ngem agsukirkayo kadagiti bilin ni Yahweh, ti ima ngarud ni Yahweh ket bumusorto kadakayo, a kas iti ibubusorna idi kadagiti kapuonanyo.
16 Now, therefore, stand and see this great thing that the LORD will do before your eyes.
Uray ita, idatagyo dagiti bagbagiyo ket kitaenyo daytoy a na-indaklan a banag nga aramidento ni Yahweh iti imatangyo.
17 Is it not the wheat harvest today? I will call on the LORD to send thunder and rain, so that you will know and see what a great evil you have committed in the sight of the LORD by asking for a king.”
Saan aya a panagaapit iti trigo ita? Umawagak kenni Yahweh tapno mangibaon koma isuna iti gurruod ken tudo. Ket maammoanyonto ken makitayo a nakaro ti kinadangkesyo, nga inaramidyo iti imatang ni Yahweh, iti panagkiddawyo iti ari a para kadakayo.”
18 So Samuel called to the LORD, and on that day the LORD sent thunder and rain. As a result, all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
Isu nga immawag ni Samuel kenni Yahweh; ket nangibaon ni Yahweh iti gurruod ken tudo iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw. Ket nagbuteng iti kasta unay dagiti amin a tattao kenni Yahweh ken ni Samuel.
19 They pleaded with Samuel, “Pray to the LORD your God for your servants so that we will not die! For we have added to all our sins the evil of asking for a king.”
Ket kinuna dagiti amin a tattao kenni Samuel, “Ikararagam kenni Yahweh a Diosmo dagiti adipenmo, tapno saankami a matay. Gapu ta innayonmi kadagiti amin a basbasolmi daytoy a dakes a panagkiddawmi iti ari para kadakami.”
20 “Do not be afraid,” Samuel replied. “Even though you have committed all this evil, do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.
Simmungbat ni Samuel, “Saankayo nga agbuteng. Inaramidyo amin dagitoy a dakes, ngem saankayo a tumallikod kenni Yahweh, ngem agserbikayo kenni Yahweh iti amin a pusoyo.
21 Do not turn aside after worthless things that cannot profit you or deliver you, for they are empty.
Saankayo a tumallikud tapno surotenyo laeng dagiti ubbaw a banbanag a saan a mapagnumaran wenno makaispal kadakayo, gapu ta awan serserbida dagitoy.
22 Indeed, for the sake of His great name, the LORD will not abandon His people, because He was pleased to make you His own.
Gapu iti naindaklan a nagan ni Yahweh, saanna a laksiden dagiti tattaona, gapu ta makaay-ayo kenni Yahweh ti panangpilina kadakayo nga agbalin a tattaona.
23 As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by ceasing to pray for you. And I will continue to teach you the good and right way.
No maipapan kaniak, adayo koma a makabasolak kenni Yahweh gapu iti panangisardengko a mangikarkararag kadakayo. Ngem ketdi, isurok kadakayo ti wagas a naimbag ken umno.
24 Above all, fear the LORD and serve Him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things He has done for you.
Agbutengkayo laeng kenni Yahweh ken agserbikayo kenkuana iti kinapudno iti amin a pusoyo. Amirisenyo dagiti naindaklan a banbanag nga inaramidna kadakayo.
25 But if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will be swept away.”
Ngem no ipapilityo ti panangaramid iti dakes, dakayo ken ti ariyo ket agpadanto a madadael.”
