1 Samuel 10
1 Then Samuel took a small jar of olive oil and poured [some of] it on Saul’s head. Then he kissed Saul [on the cheek], and told him, “I am doing this because Yahweh has chosen you to be the leader of his Israeli people.
Ket innala ni Samuel ti maysa a pagkargaan nga aglaon iti lana, imbukbukna daytoy iti ulo ni Saul, ket inagkanna isuna. Kinunana, “Pudno a ni Yahweh ti nangpulot kenka a mangituray iti tawidna.
2 [And this will prove it to you]: When you leave me today, when you arrive near Rachel’s tomb at Zelzah, in the area where the descendants of Benjamin live, you will meet two men. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys have been found, but now your father is worrying about you, and he is asking people, “Have you seen my son?’”
Inton panawannak ita nga aldaw, makasarakkanto iti dua a lallaki iti asideg ti tanem ni Rachel, iti masakupan ti Benjamin idiay Selsa. Ibagadanto kenka, 'Nasarakanen dagiti asno a birbirokem. Ita, nagsardengen nga agdandanag ti amam maipanggep kadagiti asno, ket madandanaganen kenka, a kunkunana, “Ania ti aramidek iti anakko?”'
3 When you arrive at the [large] oak tree at Tabor [town], you will see three men coming toward you. They will be on their way to [worship] God at Bethel [town]. One of them will be leading three young goats, one will be carrying three loaves of bread, and one will be carrying a container of wine.
Kalpasanna, inton makaadayoka bassit manipud sadiay, ket makadanonkanto iti kayo a lugo iti Tabor. Masabatmonto sadiay ti tallo a lallaki a mapan iti Dios idiay Betel, ti maysa ket nakaukod iti tallo nga urbon a kalding, ti maysa ket nakaawit iti tallo a tinapay, ken ti maysa ket nakaawit iti lalat a naglaon iti arak.
4 They will greet you, and they will offer you two of the loaves of bread. Accept them.
Kablaawandankanto ken ikkandakanto iti dua a tinapay, nga awatemto manipud kadagiti imada.
5 When you arrive at the hill [where people worship] God near Gibeah [town], where there is the camp where the Philistine soldiers stay, you will meet a group of prophets who will be coming down from the altar on top of the hill. There will be people in front of them who will be playing [various musical instruments]: a harp, a tambourine, a flute, and a lyre. And all of them will be speaking messages that come directly from God.
Kalpasan dayta, makadanonkanto iti turod ti Dios, nga ayan ti pagkamkampoan dagiti Filisteo. Inton makasangpetka iti siudad, makasabatkanto iti maysa a bunggoy dagiti profeta a sumalsalog manipud iti nangato a disso a nakaiggem iti arpa, pandereta, plauta, ken lira; agipadtodanto.
6 At that time the Spirit of Yahweh will come upon you, and you also will speak messages that come directly from God. (You will be changed/The Spirit of Yahweh will change you), so that you will become like a different person.
Ti Espiritu ni Yahweh ket umayto kenka, ket makipagpadtokanto kadakuada, ken agbalinkanto a naidumduma a tao.
7 After those things occur, do whatever you think is right to do, and God will (be with/help) you.
Ita, inton dumteng kenka dagitoy a pagilasinan, aramidem ti aniaman a kayat ti imam nga aramiden, ta ti Dios ket adda kenka.
8 Then go ahead of me, down to Gilgal [city], and wait for me there, for seven days. Then I will join you there, to burn sacrifices and offer other sacrifices to enable you to maintain fellowship with God. When I arrive there, I will tell you what [other] things you should do.”
Umun-unaka a sumalog idiay Gilgal. Ket sumalogakto iti ayanmo tapno mangidatag kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken mangidaton kadagiti daton a pakikappia. Agurayka iti pito nga aldaw agingga nga umayak iti ayanmo ket ipakitak kenka ti masapul nga aramidem.”
9 As Saul started to leave there, God changed Saul’s inner being. And all the things that Samuel had predicted happened on that day.
Idi timmalikud ni Saul tapno panawanna ni Samuel, innikkan isuna ti Dios iti sabali a puso. Ket napasamak amin dagitoy a pagilasinan iti dayta nga aldaw.
10 When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, they saw some prophets who were [speaking messages that came directly from God. As the prophets were] approaching Saul and his servant, God’s Spirit came upon Saul powerfully, and he also began to speak messages from God.
Idi nakadanonda iti turod, nakasabat isuna iti maysa bunggoy dagiti profeta, ket sibibileg nga immay kenkuana ti Espiritu ti Dios isu a nakipagpadto met isuna kadakuada.
11 When people who had known Saul previously heard him speaking messages from God as the prophets were doing, they said to each other, “What has happened to this son of Kish? Is he now really one of the (prophets/men who speak messages from God)?”
Idi nakita isuna dagiti amin a makaam-ammo idi kenkuana a makipagpadpadto isuna kadagiti profeta, kinuna dagiti tattao iti tunggal maysa, “Ania ti napasamak iti lalaki a putot ni Kis? Maysa kadi itan ni Saul kadagiti profeta?”
12 One of the men who lived there replied, “[Saul cannot be a prophet, because] all prophets receive their power to speak messages from God, not from their parents.” And that is why, [when people hear about a report of someone prophesying, they think about what happened to Saul and] say, “[We are surprised about that person becoming a prophet, like] we were surprised to hear that Saul had really become one of the prophets.”
Simmungbat ti maysa a tao a naggapu iti isu met laeng a lugar, “Ket siasino koma met aya ti amada?” Gapu iti daytoy, nagbalin daytoy a pagsasao, “Maysa kadi metten ni Saul kadagiti profeta?”
13 When Saul finished speaking the messages that God gave him, he went to the place where the people offered sacrifices.
Idi nalpas iti panagipadpadtona, napan isuna iti nangato a disso.
14 Later, Saul’s uncle [saw him there, and] asked him, “Where did you go?” Saul replied, “We went to look for the donkeys. When we could not find them, we came here to ask Samuel [if he could tell us where they were].”
Ket kinuna ti uliteg ni Saul kenkuana ken iti adipenna, “Napnapananyo?” Ket simmungbat isuna, “Binirokmi dagiti asno; idi saanmi dagitoy a mabirokan, napankami kenni Samuel.”
15 Saul’s uncle replied, “What did Samuel tell you?”
Kinuna ti uliteg ni Saul, “Ibagayo kaniak no ania ti imbaga ni Samuel kadakayo.”
16 Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But he did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about him becoming the king [of Israel].
Simmungbat ni Saul iti ulitegna, “Nalawag nga imbagana kadakami a nasarakanen dagiti asno.” Ngem saanna nga imbaga kenkuana ti banag maipanggep iti pagarian a sinarita ni Samuel.
17 [Later] Samuel summoned the people of Israel to gather at Mizpah to [hear a message from] Yahweh.
Ita, inayaban ni Samuel dagiti tattao iti sangoanan ni Yahweh idiay Mispa.
18 After they arrived, he said to them, “This is what Yahweh, the God we Israeli people [worship], says: I brought you Israeli people out of Egypt. I rescued your [ancestors] from the power of the rulers of Egypt and from all the other kings who oppressed them.
Kinunana kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel: 'Inruarko ti Israel manipud idiay Egipto, ken inispalkayo manipud iti ima dagiti taga-Egipto, ken manipud iti ima dagiti amin a pagarian a nangidadanes kadakayo.'
19 I am the one who saves you from all your troubles and difficulties. But today you have rejected me, your God, and you have said, ‘We don’t care! Give us a king!’ So [I will do what you want]. Now have [representatives of] your tribes and [of] your clans stand here in the presence of Yahweh.’”
Ngem ita nga aldaw linaksidyo ti Diosyo, a mangisalsalakan kadakayo manipud iti amin a didigra ken pakariribukanyo; ken imbagayo kenkuana, 'Mangisaadka iti maysa nga ari a mangituray kadakami.' Ita, idatagyo dagiti bagbagiyo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh sigun kadagiti tribu ken kadagiti puliyo.”
20 When those representatives came near to Samuel, [God indicated that] he had chosen someone from the tribe descended from Benjamin.
Isu a pinaasideg ni Samuel dagiti amin a tribu ti Israel, ket napili ti tribu ni Benjamin.
21 Then Samuel told representatives of the tribe of Benjamin to come forward, and God indicated that [from that tribe] he had chosen someone from the family of Matri, and then God indicated that [from the family of Matri] he had chosen Saul, the son of Kish. But when they looked for Saul, they could not find him.
pinaasidegna ti tribu ni Benjamin sigun kadagiti pulida; ket napili ti puli dagiti Matrita; ket napili ni Saul nga anak a lalaki ni Kis. Ngem idi napanda a binirok isuna, saanda a mabirokan isuna.
22 So they asked Yahweh, “Where is Saul?” Yahweh replied, “He is hiding among the army equipment.”
Kalpasanna, kayat dagiti tattao ti agdamag pay iti Dios, “Adda kadi pay sabali a lalaki nga umay?” Simmungbat ni Yahweh, “Naglemmeng isuna kadagiti gargaret.”
23 So they quickly went there [and found him, ] and brought him [in front of all the people]. They could see that [truly] he was a head taller than anyone else.
Timmarayda ngarud a mapan mangala kenni Saul sadiay. Idi timmakder isuna iti tengnga dagiti tattao, nataytayag isuna ngem kadagiti tattao ket pagat-abagana laeng ida.
24 Then Samuel said to all the people there, “This is the man whom Yahweh has chosen to be your king. Among all us Israeli people, there is no one like him!” Then all the people shouted, “We hope that this king will live a long time!”
Ket kinuna ni Samuel kadagiti tattao, “Makitayo kadi ti tao a pinili ni Yahweh? Awan iti kas kenkuana kadigiti amin a tattao!” Impukkaw dagiti amin a tattao, “Agbiag ti ari!”
25 Then Samuel told the people what things the king would force them to do, and all the things the king was required to do. He wrote all those things on a scroll, and then he put it in a sacred place in the temple. Then Samuel sent all the people home.
Kalpasanna, imbaga ni Samuel kadagiti tattao dagiti kaugalian ken pagannurotan iti kinaari, insuratna dagitoy iti maysa a libro, ket inkabilna iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Kalpasanna, pinagawid ni Samuel dagiti amin a tattao, tunggal maysa iti bukodna a balay.
26 When Saul returned to his home in Gibeah [town], a group of men decided to continually accompany Saul. They did that because God (motivated them/put it in their minds) to do that.
Nagawid met ni Saul iti balayna idiay Gabaa, ket kimmuyog kenkuana dagiti dadduma a napipigsa a lallaki, nga akin-puso kadagiti sinagid ti Dios.
27 But some worthless men said, “(How can this man save us [from our enemies]?/This man will not be able to save us [from our enemies].)” [RHQ] They despised him, and refused to give him any gifts [to show that they would be loyal to him]. But Saul did not say anything [to rebuke them].
Ngem kinuna dagiti dadduma a lallaki nga awan serserbina, “Kasanonatayo a maisalakan daytoy a tao?” Inumsi dagitoy a tattao ni Saul ken saanda a nangiyeg kadagiti aniaman a sagut kenkuana. Ngem nagulimek laeng ni Saul.
