1 Samuel 8
1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
Kane Samuel oseti noketo yawuote mondo obed jongʼad bura e Israel.
2 Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abijah: they were judges in Beer-sheba.
Nying wuode makayo ne Joel to nying wuowi mar ariyo ne Abija, kendo negitiyo e Bersheba.
3 And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.
To yawuotego ne ok oluwo timbene. Ne gibaro kuom dwaro mwandu malangʼ kendo ka gikawo asoya bende ka gingʼado bura marach.
4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah:
Omiyo jodong Israel noromo kamoro achiel mine gidhi ir Samuel Rama.
5 and they said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
Negiwachone niya, “In koro iseti kendo yawuoti bende ok luw timbeni; omiyo koro yiernwa ruoth mondo otelnwa, machal gi mag ogendini mamoko mondo otelnwa.”
6 But the thing displeased Samuel; when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
To kane gikwayo niya, “Miwa ruoth mondo otelnwa,” kwayoni ok ne omoro Samuel, omiyo nolamo Jehova Nyasaye.
7 And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them.
To Jehova Nyasaye ne owachone niya, “Chik iti ne weche duto ma ji wachoni; nikech ok in ema gikwedi, to An ema gisekweda kaka ruodhgi.
8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
Mana kaka gisebedo ka gitimo chakre ndalo mane agologi e piny Misri nyaka koroni, kagiweya kendo gitiyo ni nyiseche mamoko, ema koro in bende gitimoni.
9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit thou shalt protest solemnly unto them, and shalt shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
Koro winj gima giwacho; makmana isiemgi matek, kendo mondo inyisgi mondo gingʼe gik ma ruoth mabiro ritogi biro timo.”
10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
Samuel nonyiso joma ne kwaye mondo omigi ruoth weche duto mag Jehova Nyasaye.
11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: he will take your sons, and appoint them unto him, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and they shall run before his chariots:
Nowacho niya, “Ma e gima ruoth mabiro ritou notim: Nokaw yawuotu mi noketgi mondo giti e gechene gi faresene, kendo giniringi e nyim gechene.
12 and he will appoint them unto him for captains of thousands and captains of fifties; and [he will set some] to plow his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and the instruments of his chariots.
Moko to enoket jotelo mag lweny marito ji alufe alufe to moko motelo ni piero abich abich, moko nopur puothene gi dhok kendo kayo chambe, to bende moko noket mondo olos gige mag lweny to gi gik milosogo gechene.
13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
Nokaw nyiwu mondo obed jolos modhi mangʼwe ngʼar to moko obed joted chiemo kod makati.
14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
Enokaw puotheu mabeyo moloyo gi puotheu mag olembe mag mzabibu gi zeituni mi enomi jotichne.
15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
Enokaw achiel kuom apar mag chambu gi olembeu mi nomigi jotende gi jotije.
16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
Nomau jotiju machwo gi ma nyiri, kaachiel gi jambu mabeyo moloyo, kod pundeu nokawgi mondo giti tijene owuon.
17 He will take the tenth of your flocks: and ye shall be his servants.
Nokaw achiel kuom apar mag jambu kendo un uwegi unubed wasumbinige.
18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not answer you in that day.
Ka odiechiengno ochopo, unuywagi ka ukwayo kony kuom ruoth mane uyiero, to Jehova Nyasaye ok nomiu dwoko.”
19 But the people refused to hearken unto the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
To ji nodagi winjo Samuel mi negiwacho niya, “Ngangʼ! Wan to wadwaro ruoth mondo oritwa.
20 that we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
Mondo wan bende wabed machal gi ogendini mamoko, ka wan gi ruoth matelo nyimwa ka wadhi e lweny.”
21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
Kane Samuel owinjo weche duto mane ji owacho, ne onyiso Jehova Nyasaye wechego mana kaka ne gikwayo.
22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Winj gima giwachoni kendo imigi ruoth.” Eka Samuel nowachone jo-Israel niya, “Koro ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e miechgi.”
