< 1 Samuel 16 >

1 The LORD said to Samuel, "How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided a king for myself among his sons."
Olúwa sọ fún Samuẹli pé, “Yóò ha ti pẹ́ tó tí ìwọ yóò máa dárò Saulu, nígbà tí ó jẹ́ pé mo ti kọ̀ ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli? Rọ òróró kún inú ìwo rẹ, kí o sì mú ọ̀nà rẹ pọ̀n, Èmi rán ọ sí Jese ará Bẹtilẹhẹmu. Èmi ti yan ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ láti jẹ ọba.”
2 Samuel said, "How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me." The LORD said, "Take a heifer with you, and say, I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.
Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí pé, “Báwo ni èmi yóò ṣe lọ? Bí Saulu bá gbọ́ nípa rẹ̀, yóò pa mi.” Olúwa wí pé, “Mú abo ẹgbọrọ màlúù kan pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí o sì wí pé, ‘Èmi wá láti wá rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa.’
3 Call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do. You shall anoint to me him whom I name to you."
Pe Jese wá sí ibi ìrúbọ náà, Èmi yóò sì fi ohun tí ìwọ yóò ṣe hàn ọ́. Ìwọ yóò fi òróró yàn fún mi, ẹni tí èmi bá fihàn ọ́.”
4 And Samuel did what the LORD said, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the city came to meet him trembling. And they said, "Is your visit peaceful, seer?"
Samuẹli ṣe ohun tí Olúwa sọ. Nígbà tí ó dé Bẹtilẹhẹmu, àyà gbogbo àgbàgbà ìlú já, nígbà tí wọ́n pàdé rẹ̀. Wọ́n béèrè pé, “Ṣé àlàáfíà ní ìwọ bá wá?”
5 And he said, "Peaceful; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Sanctify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice." He sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
Samuẹli sì dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àlàáfíà ni; mo wá láti wá rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa. Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́, kí ẹ sì wá rú ẹbọ pẹ̀lú mi.” Nígbà náà ni ó sì ya Jese sí mímọ́ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, ó sì pè wọ́n wá sí ibi ìrúbọ náà.
6 It happened, when they had come, that he looked at Eliab, and said, "Surely the LORD's anointed is before him."
Nígbà tí wọ́n dé, Samuẹli rí Eliabu, ó rò nínú ara rẹ̀ pé lóòótọ́ ẹni òróró Olúwa dúró níbí níwájú Olúwa.
7 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For humans do not see as God sees, for humans look at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart."
Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa sọ fún Samuẹli pé, “Má ṣe wo ti ìrísí rẹ̀ tàbí ti gíga rẹ̀, nítorí èmi ti kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀. Olúwa kì í wo ohun tí ènìyàn máa ń wò. Ènìyàn máa ń wo òde ara ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa máa ń wo ọkàn.”
8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."
Nígbà náà ni Jese pe Abinadabu, ó sì jẹ́ kí ó rìn kọjá ní iwájú Samuẹli. Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí pé, “Olúwa kò yan ẹni yìí.”
9 Then Jesse made Shimeah to pass by. He said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."
Jese sì jẹ́ kí Ṣamma rìn kọjá ní iwájú Samuẹli, ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí pé, “Olúwa kò yan ẹni yìí náà.”
10 And Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. But Samuel said, "The LORD has not chosen these."
Jese jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ méje rìn kọjá ní iwájú Samuẹli ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli sọ fún un pé, “Olúwa kò yan àwọn wọ̀nyí.”
11 Then Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all your children here?" And he said, "There remains yet the youngest. Look, he is tending the sheep." And Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and get him, for we will not sit down until he comes here."
Nígbà náà ni ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ Jese pé, “Ṣé èyí ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ rẹ?” Jese dáhùn pé, “Ó ku àbíkẹ́yìn wọn, ó ń tọ́jú agbo àgùntàn.” Samuẹli sì wí pé, “Rán ìránṣẹ́ lọ pè é wá; àwa kò ní jókòó títí òun yóò fi dé.”
12 So he sent and brought him in. And he was reddish brown, and had beautiful eyes, and was handsome. And the LORD said, "Arise, anoint him, for he is the one."
Ó sì ránṣẹ́ sí i, wọ́n sì mú un wọlé wá, ó jẹ́ ẹni tó mọ́ra, àwọ̀ ara rẹ̀ dùn ún wò, ó jẹ́ arẹwà gidigidi. Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Dìde kí o sì fi òróró yàn án, òun ni ẹni náà.”
13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers: and the Ruach of the LORD came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli mú ìwo òróró, ó sì ta á sí i ní orí ní iwájú àwọn ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀, láti ọjọ́ náà lọ, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ Olúwa wá sí orí Dafidi nínú agbára. Samuẹli sì lọ sí Rama.
14 Now the Ruach of the LORD departed from Saul, and a harmful spirit from the LORD tormented him.
Nísinsin yìí, ẹ̀mí Olúwa ti kúrò lára Saulu, ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa sì ń yọ ọ́ lẹ́nu.
15 Saul's servants said to him, "See now, a harmful spirit from God is tormenting you.
Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Saulu sì wí fún un pé, “Wò ó, ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá ń yọ ọ́ lẹ́nu.
16 Let our lord now command your servants who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. It shall happen, when the harmful spirit is on you, that he shall play with his hand, and you shall be well, and it will give you relief."
Jẹ́ kí olúwa wa pàṣẹ fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ tí ó wà níhìn-ín láti wa ẹnìkan tí ó lè fi dùùrù kọrin. Yóò sì ṣe é nígbà tí ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run bá bà lé ọ, ìwọ yóò sì sàn.”
17 Saul said to his servants, "Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me."
Nígbà náà ni Saulu wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ wá ẹnìkan tí ó lè kọrin dáradára kí ẹ sì mú u wá fún mi.”
18 Then one of the young men answered, and said, "Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, and a mighty man of valor, and a warrior, and articulate in speech, and a handsome man; and the LORD is with him."
Ọ̀kan nínú ìránṣẹ́ náà dáhùn pé, “Èmi ti ri ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Jese ti Bẹtilẹhẹmu tí ó mọ orin kọ, ó jẹ́ alágbára àti ológun. Ó ní ọgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ òun sì dára ní wíwò. Olúwa sì wà pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀.”
19 Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, "Send me David your son, who is with the sheep."
Saulu sì rán oníṣẹ́ sí Jese wí pé, “Rán Dafidi ọmọ rẹ sí mi, ẹni tí ó ń ṣọ́ àgùntàn.”
20 And Jesse took a donkey and loaded it with an omer of bread, and a skin of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by David his son to Saul.
Jese sì mú kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ti a di ẹrù lé àti ìgò ọtí wáìnì àti ọmọ ewúrẹ́; ó sì rán wọn nípa ọwọ́ Dafidi ọmọ rẹ̀ sí Saulu.
21 David came to Saul, and stood before him. He loved him greatly; and he became his armor bearer.
Dafidi sì tọ Saulu lọ, ó sì dúró níwájú rẹ̀, òun sì fẹ́ ẹ gidigidi, Dafidi sì wá di ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ń ru ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀.
22 Saul sent to Jesse, saying, "Please let David stand before me; for he has found favor in my sight."
Nígbà náà ni Saulu ránṣẹ́ sí Jese pé, “Jẹ́ kí Dafidi dúró níwájú mi, nítorí tí ó wù mí.”
23 It happened, when the spirit from God was on Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the harmful spirit departed from him.
Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá bá dé sí Saulu, Dafidi a sì fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ kọrin lára dùùrù: a sì san fún Saulu, ara rẹ̀ a sì dá; ẹ̀mí búburú náà a sì fi sílẹ̀.
