< 1 Samuel 10 >

1 Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said: 'Is it not that the LORD hath anointed thee to be prince over His inheritance?
Na Samuel el eis sufa in oil in olive ac ukuiya fin sifal Saul ac ngok mutal ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El mosrwekomla tuh kom fah leum fin mwet lal, mwet Israel. Kom fah leum faclos ac karinganulos liki mwet lokoalok lalos. Na pa inge mwe akpwayeye nu sum lah LEUM GOD pa sulekomla tuh kom in leum fin mwet lal:
2 When thou art departed from me to-day, then thou shalt find two men by the tomb of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto thee: The asses which thou wentest to seek are found; and, lo, thy father hath left off caring for the asses, and is anxious concerning you, saying: What shall I do for my son?
Ke kom ac fahsr likiyu misenge, kom ac fah sun mukul luo sisken kulyuk lal Rachel in acn Zelzah in facl lun Benjamin. Eltal ac fah fahk nu sum lah koneyukyak tari donkey ma komtal suk an. Na papa tomom el tila nunku kac, a el nunku keim, ac el na siyuk na ac fahk, ‘Mea nga ac oru ke wen nutik uh?’
3 Then shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt come to the terebinth of Tabor, and there shall meet thee there three men going up to God to Beth-el, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine.
Ke kom ac som liki acn sac, kom ac fahsr nwe sun sak oal soko in acn Tabor, ac kom ac fah sun mukul tolu su fahsr in som nu Bethel in oru mwe kisa lalos nu sin God we. Sie selos el pwen nani fusr tolkwe, ac sie selos el us lof in bread tolkwe, ac mukul se aktolu an el us pak in wain se nwanala ke wain.
4 And they will salute thee, and give thee two cakes of bread; which thou shalt receive of their hand.
Elos ac fah paing kom, ac asot lukwa lof an nu sum, na kom fah eis.
5 After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they will be prophesying.
Na kom fah som nu ke Fineol lun God in acn Gibeah, yen mwet mweun lun mwet Philistia elos muta we. Ke nien utyak nu in siti uh kom ac fah sun u in mwet palu su oatui liki nien loang lalos fineol uh — elos srital ke harp, drum, flute, ac lyre. Elos ac onsrosro ac sasa.
6 And the spirit of the LORD will come mightily upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.
In kitin pacl ah, ngunin LEUM GOD ac tuku ke ku nu fom, ac kom ac fah welulos ke tacn in alyalu ac sasa lalos, ac kom ac fah ekla sie mwet sasu.
7 And let it be, when these signs are come unto thee, that thou do as thy hand shall find; for God is with thee.
Ke pacl se ma inge sikyak nu sum uh, kutena ma God El akkalemye nu sum, kom in oru.
8 And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto thee, to offer burnt-offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come unto thee, and tell thee what thou shalt do.'
Kom fah som meet likiyu nu Gilgal. Nga ac fah sun kom we, ac kisakin mwe kisa firir ac mwe kisa in akinsewowo. Kom fah soaneyu we len itkosr, nu ke pacl nga tuku ac fahkak nu sum ma kom in oru.”
9 And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.
Ke Saul el forla in fahsr lukel Samuel, God El sang sie ouiyen moul sasu nu sel Saul. Ac ma nukewa ma Samuel el fahk nu sel ah, sikyak in len sac.
10 And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a band of prophets met him; and the spirit of God came mightily upon him, and he prophesied among them.
Ke Saul ac mwet kulansap lal sun acn Gibeah, un mwet palu se tuku osun nu sel. In kitin pacl ah ngunin God tuku ke ku nu facl ac el wi mwet palu inge ke tacn ac sasa in alyalu lalos.
11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another: 'What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?'
Ac ke mwet su etal Saul meet elos liye ma el oru inge, elos asiyuki sie sin sie, “Ku mea sikyak nu sin wen se natul Kish inge? Ya Saul el ekla sie mwet palu?”
12 And one of the same place answered and said: 'And who is their father?' Therefore it became a proverb: 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'
Ac sie mukul in acn sac el fahk, “Ac fuka mwet palu saya inge? Kowos nunku mu su papa tumalos an?” Na pa inge mutaweyen soakas se ma fahk mu, “Ku pwaye lah Saul el ekla sie mwet palu pac?”
13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
Ke Saul el oru tacn ac sasa in alyalu lal tari, na el som nu ke nien loang fineol uh.
14 And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant: 'Whither went ye?' And he said: 'To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were not found, we came to Samuel.'
Sie mukul wien papa tumal Saul el liyal Saul ac mwet kulansap lal, ac el siyuk seltal, “Komtal muta ya tuku?” Saul el fahk, “Kut suk donkey tuhlac ah. Ke kut kofla konauk, na kut som nu yorol Samuel.”
15 And Saul's uncle said: 'Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.'
Na papa sac siyuk, “Ac mea Samuel el fahk nu sumtal?”
16 And Saul said unto his uncle: 'He told us plainly that the asses were found.' But concerning the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.
Na Saul el fahk, “El fahk mu koneyukyak tari.” Tusruktu el tiana fahk ma Samuel el fahk kacl lah el ac tokosrala.
17 And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpah.
Samuel el pangoneni mwet uh nu ye mutun LEUM GOD in acn Mizpah,
18 And he said unto the children of Israel: 'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.
ac el fahk nu selos, “LEUM GOD lun Israel el fahk, ‘Nga uskowosme liki facl Egypt ac molikowosla liki inpoun mwet Egypt ac liki mwet saya nukewa su akkeokye kowos.
19 But ye have this day rejected your God, who Himself saveth you out of all your calamities and your distresses; and ye have said unto Him: Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.'
Nga God lowos, su molikowosla liki ongoiya ac ma upa nu suwos, tuh pa misenge kowos sisyula ac siyuk ke sie tokosra. Ouinge kowos toeni in sruf lowos ac in sou lowos, ac utyak nu ye mutun LEUM GOD.’”
20 So Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
Na Samuel el sap kais sie sruf in kilukyak, ac LEUM GOD el sulela sruf lal Benjamin.
21 And he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by their families, and the family of the Matrites was taken; and Saul the son of Kish was taken; but when they sought him, he could not be found.
Na Samuel el sap kais sie sou in sruf lal Benjamin in kilukyak, na sou lal Matri sulosolla. Na kais sie mukul in sou lal Matri kilukyak, na Saul, wen natul Kish, el solla. Elos sokol tuh elos kofla konalak.
22 Therefore they asked of the LORD further: 'Is there yet a man come hither?' And the LORD answered: 'Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.'
Na elos siyuk sin LEUM GOD, “Ya oasr pac sie sayal?” Ac LEUM GOD El topuk, “Saul el a wikwik ingo inmasrlon kufwen sroasr.”
23 And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
Ac elos kasrusr ac usalu nu yurin mwet uh, ac ke el tuyak inmasrlon mwet uh, el fulat lukelos nukewa finpisalyak.
24 And Samuel said to all the people: 'See ye him whom the LORD hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people?' And all the people shouted, and said: 'Long live the king.'
Ac Samuel el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Pa inge mwet se su LEUM GOD El sulela! Wangin sie inmasrlosr oana el.” Ac mwet uh nukewa wowoyak ac fahk, “In paht moul lal tokosra!”
25 Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
Na Samuel el aketeya nu sin mwet uh ke kunokon ac suwohs lun sie tokosra. El simusla ma inge in sie book, ac filiya in sie acn mutal. Na el supwalik mwet uh nu in acn selos.
26 And Saul also went to his house to Gibeah; and there went with him the men of valour, whose hearts God had touched.
Ac Saul el folokla pac nu yen sel in acn Gibeah. God El pirik insien kutu mwet pulaik ac ku, ac elos welul Saul som.
27 But certain base fellows said: 'How shall this man save us?' And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he was as one that held his peace.
Tusruktu kutu mwet lusrongten elos fahk, “Mea, oasr ma wo mwet se inge el ku in oru nu sesr?” Elos pilesral ac tia use kutena mwe lung nu sel. Tuh Saul el mislana.
