< 1 Samuel 10 >
1 And Samuel takes the vial of the oil, and pours [it] on his head, and kisses him, and says, “Is it not because YHWH has appointed you over His inheritance for leader?
Eka Samuel nokawo tungʼ mar mo mi oolo ewi Saulo eka nonyodhe mowacho niya, “Donge Jehova Nyasaye osewiri mondo ibed jatelo ne joge moyiero.
2 In your going from me today—then you have found two men by the grave of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin, at Zelzah, and they have said to you, The donkeys have been found which you have gone to seek; and behold, your father has left the matter of the donkeys, and has sorrowed for you, saying, What do I do for my son?
Kawuononi ka iseweya ibiro romo gi ji ariyo machiegni gi liend Rael e gwengʼ Zelza e tongʼ jo-Benjamin. Gibiro wachoni ni, ‘Punde mane iwuok idhi dwaro oseyudi. Kendo wuonu oseweyo parogi koro chunye chandore ni wachne kopenjo niya, “Abiro timo angʼo ne wach wuodani?”’
3 And you have passed on there, and beyond, and have come to the oak of Tabor, and three men going up to God to Beth-El have found you there, one carrying three kids, and one carrying three cakes of bread, and one carrying a bottle of wine,
“Eka ibiro wuok kanyo midhi nyaka yath maduongʼ man Tabor. Ji adek mawuotho kadhi Bethel ir Nyasaye norom kodi kanyo. Achiel kuomgi biro biro kotingʼo nyidiek adek, to machielo biro tingʼo makati adek, to machielo to otingʼo ndede mar divai.
4 and they have asked of your welfare, and given two loaves to you, and you have received from their hand.
Gibiro mosi kendo miyi makati ariyo, mibiro kawo kuomgi.
5 Afterward you come to the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines [is], and it comes to pass, at your coming in there to the city, that you have met a band of prophets coming down from the high place, and before them stringed instrument, and tambourine, and pipe, and harp, and they are prophesying;
“Bangʼ mano ibiro dhi Gibea miluongo ni Got mar Nyasaye kama nitie kambi mar jo-Filistia. Ka ichopo machiegni gi dala to ibiro romo gi oganda jonabi kalor koa kar lemo kotelnegi gi joma goyo orutu, gi tamborin, asili gi nyatiti, kendo jonabi biro biro ka gikoro wach.
6 and the Spirit of YHWH has prospered over you, and you have prophesied with them, and have turned into a [new] man;
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobi kuomi gi teko, inikor kaachiel kodgi kendo noloki mibed ngʼato mopogore.
7 and it has been, when these signs come to you—do for yourself as your hand finds, for God [is] with you.
Ka ranyisi otimore to mondo itim atima gima lweti oyudo ni onego tim; nikech Nyasaye ni kodi.
8 And you have gone down before me to Gilgal, and behold, I am going down to you, to cause burnt-offerings to ascend, to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; you wait [for] seven days until my coming to you, and I have made known to you that which you do.”
“Tel nyima idhi Gilgal. Chutho abiro lor ka abiro iri mondo atim misango miwangʼo pep kod misengini mag lalruok, to nyaka ine ni irita kuom ndalo abiriyo mondo abi anyisi gima onego itim.”
9 And it has been, at his turning his shoulder to go from Samuel, that God turns to him another heart, and all these signs come on that day,
Kane Saulo oseweyo Samuel, Nyasaye ne oloko chuny Saulo, kendo ranyisi duto nochopo kare chiengʼno.
10 and they come in there to the height, and behold, a band of prophets [is there] to meet him, and the Spirit of God prospers over him, and he prophesies in their midst.
Kane gichopo Gibea, oganda mar jonabi noromone, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro mopongʼe gi teko eka nochako koro wach kodgi.
11 And it comes to pass, all knowing him before, see, and behold, he has prophesied with prophets, and the people say to one another, “What [is] this [that] has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Eka joma ne ongʼeye kane onene ka okoro gi jonabi, negipenjore kendgi niya, “Ma to en angʼo matimore ne wuod Kish? Saulo bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
12 And a man there answers and says, “And who [is] their father?” Therefore it has been for an allegory, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
To ngʼat moro modak e gwengʼno nomedo dwoko kopenjo niya, “Wuon-gi to en ngʼa?” Omiyo wachni nolokore ngero niya, “Saulo-ni bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
13 And he ceases from prophesying, and comes to the high place,
Kane Saulo osetieko koro noidho mobet e kar lemo.
14 and the uncle of Saul says to him, and to his young man, “To where did you go?” And he says, “To seek the donkeys; and we see that they are not, and we come to Samuel.”
Eka owad gi wuon Saulo nopenjogi niya, “Ne pod un kanye?” Ne odwoko niya, “Ne wadwaro punde, to kane waneno ni gitamowa yudo eka wadhi ir Samuel.”
15 And the uncle of Saul says, “Please declare to me what Samuel said to you.”
Owad gi wuon Saulo nowachone niya, “Nyisa gima Samuel nowachonu.”
16 And Saul says to his uncle, “He certainly declared to us that the donkeys were found”; and of the matter of the kingdom he has not declared to him that which Samuel said.
Saulo nodwoke niya, “Ne owachonwa malongʼo ni punde ne oseyudo.” To ne ok onyise gima Samuel ne owacho kuom wach bedo ruoth.
17 And Samuel calls the people to YHWH to Mizpeh,
Samuel noluongo oganda jo-Israel duto Mizpa e nyim Jehova Nyasaye,
18 and says to the sons of Israel, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I have brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms who are oppressing you;
mowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ne agolo Israel koa Misri, kendo ne aresou e teko mar loch Misri kod pinjeruodhi duto mane thirou.’
19 and you have rejected your God today, who [is] Himself your Savior out of all your evils and your distresses, and you say, No, but you set a king over us; and now, station yourselves before YHWH, by your tribes, and by your thousands.”
To koro useweyo Nyasachu, ma resou e masicheu gi chandruoku. Ma usewacho ni, ‘Ooyo miwa ruodhwa.’ Omiyo sani suduru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kuchanoru e ogandau kod e dhoutu.”
20 And Samuel brings all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin is captured,
Kane Samuel okelo ogendini duto mag Israel machiegni, to oganda mar Benjamin ema ne oyier.
21 and he brings the tribe of Benjamin near by its families, and the family of Matri is captured, and Saul son of Kish is captured, and they seek him, and he has not been found.
Eka nokelo oganda mar Benjamin nyime, kaluwore gi dhoot ka dhoot, mine oyier dhood Matri. Mogik ne oyier Saulo wuod Kish. To kane gidware, to ne ok oyude.
22 And they ask again of YHWH, “Has the man come here yet?” And YHWH says, “Behold, he has been hidden near the vessels.”
Eka negimedo penjo wach kuom Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ngʼatni bende osebiro ka koso?” Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Ee, osepondo e kind misike.”
23 And they run and bring him there, and he stationed himself in the midst of the people, and he is higher than any of the people from his shoulder and upward.
Negiringo ma giome, kane ochungʼ e dier oganda to ne obor ma ji moko ne gik mana e goke.
24 And Samuel says to all the people, “Have you seen him on whom YHWH has fixed, for there is none like him among all the people?” And all the people shout, and say, “Let the king live!”
Samuel nowachone ji duto niya, “Bende uneno ngʼat ma Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero? Onge ngʼama chalo kode kuom ji duto.” Eka ji nokok niya, “Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa!”
25 And Samuel speaks to the people the right of the kingdom, and writes in a scroll, and places [it] before YHWH; and Samuel sends all the people away, each to his house.
Samuel nolero ne ji chike mag bedo ruoth. Nondikogi e kitabu mokano e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Samuel ne ogonyo ji mondo ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e dalane.
26 And Saul has also gone to his house, to Gibeah, and the force goes with him whose heart God has touched;
Saulo bende nodhi dalagi man Gibea, ka en gi joma thuondi mane osemul chunygi gi Nyasaye.
27 and the sons of worthlessness have said, “How can this one save us?” And they despise him, and have not brought a present to him; and he is as one being deaf.
To jomoko ma acheje nowacho niya, “Ere kaka ngʼatni nyalo resowa?” Negi chaye mine ok gikelone mich. To Saulo nolingʼ mos.
