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?
Ergasii Saamuʼeel zayitii bilillee tokko fuudhee mataa Saaʼol irratti dhangalaasee isa dhungatee akkana jedhe; “Akka ati dhaala isaa irratti mootuuf Waaqayyo si hin dibnee?
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?
Harʼa ati yeroo na biraa deemtutti biyya Beniyaam keessatti awwaala Raahel biratti iddoo Zelzaa jedhamutti namoota lama ni argita. Isaanis, ‘Harroonni ati barbaadaa turte sun argamaniiru. Amma abbaan kee waaʼee harrootaa yaaduu dhiisee waaʼee kee, “Waaʼee ilma koo ani maal godhu laata?” jedhee yaaddaʼaa jira’ siin jedhu.
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.
“Ergasiis achii kaatee hamma qilxuu Taaboor guddichaatti ni deemta. Achittis namoonni sadii kanneen gara Waaqaa, gara Beetʼeelitti ol baʼaa jiran, inni tokko ilmoolee reʼee sadii, tokko immoo daabboo sadii, inni kaanis daadhii wayinii qalqalloo tokko baatanii sitti dhufu.
4 And they will salute thee, and give thee two cakes of bread; which thou shalt receive of their hand.
Isaanis nagaa si gaafatanii daabboo lama siif kennu; atis isaan harkaa ni fudhatta.
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.
“Sana booddees iddoo hoomaan waraana Filisxeem jiru gara Gibeʼaa gara tulluu Waaqaa ni dhaqxa. Atis akkuma magaalaatti dhiʼaatteen gareen raajotaa tokko masiinqoo, dibbee, ulullee fi baganaa qabatee gaara gubbaadhaa gad sitti dhufa; isaanis raajii ni dubbatu.
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.
Hafuurri Waaqayyoo humnaan sirra ni buʼa; atis isaan wajjin raajii dubbatta; geeddaramtees nama biraa taata.
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.
Yeroo mallattoowwan kunneen fiixaan baʼanitti waan harka keetti dhufe hunda hojjedhu; Waaqni si wajjin jiraatii.
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.'
“Ati na dura gara Gilgaalitti gad buʼi. Anis aarsaa gubamuu fi qalma nagaa dhiʼeessuuf gara kee nan dhufa; ati garuu hamma ani dhufee waan ati gootu sitti himutti guyyaa torba turuu qabda.”
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.
Yeroo Saaʼol Saamuʼeelin dhiisee deemuuf fuula isaa garagalfatetti, Waaqni Saaʼoliif qalbii haaraa kenne. Mallattoowwan kunneen hundinuus gaafas raawwataman.
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.
Yeroo isaan Gibeʼaa gaʼanittis gareen raajotaa tokko isatti dhufe; Hafuurri Waaqaas isa irra buʼe; innis isaan wajjin raajii dubbate.
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?'
Warri duraan isa beekan hundi yeroo raajota wajjin raajii dubbachuu isaa arganitti, “Ilma Qiishiitti maaltu dhufe? Saaʼolis garee raajotaa keessaa tokkoo?” jedhanii wal gagaafatan.
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?'
Namichi achi jiraatu tokkos, “Abbaan isaanii eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Kanaafuu jechi, “Saaʼolis garee raajotaa keessaa tokkoo?” jedhu sun mammaaksa taʼe.
13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
Saaʼolis erga raajii dubbachuu raawwatee booddee gaara sagadaatti ol baʼe.
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.'
Obboleessi abbaa Saaʼolis tajaajilaa isaatiin, “Isin eessa dhaqxan?” jedhee gaafate. Saaʼolis, “Harroota barbaacha deemne; garuu yommuu deebinetti Saamuʼeel bira dhaqne” jedhee deebise.
15 And Saul's uncle said: 'Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.'
Obboleessi abbaa Saaʼol immoo, “Waan Saamuʼeel siin jedhe natti himi” jedhe.
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.
Saaʼolis deebisee, “Inni akka harroonni argaman nutti himeera” jedhe; garuu waan akka inni mootii taʼu Saamuʼeel itti hime sana obboleessa abbaa isaatti hin himne.
17 And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpah.
Saamuʼeelis namoota Israaʼel gara Miisphaatti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti walitti waamee
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.
akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: ‘Ani Israaʼelin biyya Gibxiitii baaseera; harka warra Gibxii fi harka mootummoota isaan cunqursaa turan hundaa jalaas isin fureera.’
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.'
Isin garuu amma Waaqa keessan isa dhiphina keessanii fi rakkina keessan hunda jalaa isin baase sana dhiiftaniirtu. Isin, ‘waawuu; mootii nu bulchu nuu muudi’ jettaniirtu. Kanaafuu gosa gosaa fi balbala balbala keessaniin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti of dhiʼeessaa.”
20 So Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
Yommuu Saamuʼeel gosoota Israaʼel hunda fidettis gosti Beniyaam ni filatame.
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.
Ergasiis inni gosa Beniyaam balbala balbalaan fuula duratti dhiʼeessee balballi Maxriit filatame. Dhuma irrattis Saaʼol ilmi Qiish ni filatame. Inni garuu yommuu isa barbaadanitti hin argamne.
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.'
Kanaaf namoonni, “Namichi dhufee jiraa?” jedhanii ammas Waaqayyoon gaafatan. Waaqayyos, “Eeyyee; garuu inni miʼa keessa dhokatee jira” jedhe.
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.
Isaanis fiiganii achii isa fidan. Innis yeroo dhufee isaan gidduu dhaabatetti gatiittii isaatii olitti nama hunda caalaa dheeraa ture.
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.'
Saamuʼeelis saba sana hundaan, “Namicha Waaqayyo isa filate argituu? Saba hunda keessaa kan akka isaa tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedhe. Namoonnis, “Mootichi bara baraan haa jiraatu!” jedhanii iyyan.
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.
Saamuʼeelis seera mootummaan sun ittiin bulu namootaaf ibse. Kitaaba keessattis barreessee fuula Waaqayyoo dura kaaʼe. Ergasii Saamuʼeel namoota hunda gara mana isaaniitti of irraa geggeesse.
26 And Saul also went to his house to Gibeah; and there went with him the men of valour, whose hearts God had touched.
Saaʼol garuu Gibeʼaatti deebiʼee mana ofii isaatti gale; namoonni jajjaboon Waaqni yaada isaanii kakaases isa wajjin deeman.
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.
Garuu namoonni kashlabboonni tokko tokko, “Namni kun akkamitti nu oolchuu dandaʼa?” jedhan. Isas ni tuffatan. Kennaa tokko illees hin fidneef. Saaʼol garuu ni calʼise.
