1 Samuel 8
1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
Ie nigain-kantetse t’i Samoele, le nanoe’e mpizaka’ Israele o ana-dahi’eo.
2 Now the name of his first-born was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: [they were] judges in Beer-sheba.
Ty tahina’ i tañoloñoloña’ey le Ioele; i Abià ty faharoe; nizaka e Be’er-sevà ao iereo.
3 And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.
Fe tsy nañorike o sata’eo i ana’e rey, te mone nivike mb’an-dRavola naho nandrambe vokàñe vaho nolahe’ iareo ty hatò.
4 Then all the elders of Israel assembled, and came to Samuel to Ramah,
Nifanontoñe amy zao o mpiaolo’ Israele iabio vaho niheo mb’ amy Samoele e Ramà mb’eo
5 And said to 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.
nanao ty hoe ama’e: Oniño te bey irehe vaho tsy mañorike o lia’oo o ana’oo; aa le añorizo mpanjaka hizaka anay manahake o kilakila ‘ndatio.
6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us: and Samuel prayed to the LORD.
Fe tsy ninò’ i Samoele zay, ty enta’ iareo ty hoe: Itoloro mpanjaka hizaka. Le nihalaly am’ Iehovà t’i Samoele.
7 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken to the voice of the people in all that they say to thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Samoele: Haoño ty fiarañanaña’ ondatio amo hene nisaontsia’ iareoo; ie tsy namorintseñe azo, toe Izaho ty napo’ iareo tsy ho mpanjaka’ iareo.
8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them out of Egypt even to this day, by which they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also to thee.
Hambañ’ amo fitoloña’ iareo sikal’ amy nañakarako amy Mitsraime añe pake henanekeo, ie namorintseñe ahy naho nitoroñe ‘ndrahare ila’e, ty hanoe’ iareo ama’o ka.
9 Now therefore hearken to their voice: yet protest solemnly to them, and show them the manner of the king that will reign over them.
Ie amy zao, haoño ty fiarañanaña’ iareo, f’ie hatahatao vaho taroño o satam-pifeheam-panjaka’ iareoo.
10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD to the people that asked of him a king.
Aa le tinaro’ i Samoele am’ondaty nipay mpanjaka ama’e iabio i tsara’ Iehovà zay.
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] for himself, for his chariots, and [to be] his horsemen; and [some] will run before his chariots.
Le hoe re: Zao ty ho sata’ o mpanjaka hamelek’ anahareoo: ho rambese’e o ana-dahi’ areoo, le ho tendrè’e ho aze naho ho a o sarete’eo naho ho mpiningi-tsoavala’e vaho ho mpilay aolo’ o sarete’eo.
12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and [will set them] to till his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
Le ho tendrè’e ty mpifelek’ arivo naho ty mpifehe limampolo hiava i tete’ey naho hanatake i voka’ey, vaho handranjy o fialia’eo naho o haraon-tsarete’eo.
13 And he will take your daughters [to be] confectioneries, and [to be] cooks, and [to be] bakers.
Ho rambese’e ka o anak’ ampela’ areoo ho mpanao rano mañitse, ho mpanokoñe vaho mpanoñake.
14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive-yards, [even] the best [of them], and give [them] to his servants.
Ho rambese’e ka o tete’ areoo naho o tanembahe’ areoo naho o golobon’ olive’ areoo, o soa ama’eo, le hatolo’e amo mpitoro’eo.
15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
Hampandiva’e anahareo ty faha-folo’ ty tabiri’ areo, naho o tanem-bahe’ areoo vaho hatolo’e amo mpifehe’eo naho o mpitoro’eo.
16 And he will take your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and your most choice young men, and your asses, and put [them] to his work.
Ho rambese’e o mpitoro’ areo lahilahio, naho o anak’ ampata’ areoo naho ze volovoloeñe amo ajalahi’ areoo naho o borìkeo hampitoroñe’e amo fitoloña’eo.
17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye will be his servants.
Hampandivà’e ty ampahafolo’ o lia-rai’ areoo vaho hinjare mpitoro’e nahareo.
18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen for yourselves; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
Le hikoihe’ areo amy andro zay i mpanjaka nijoboñe’ areoy, fe tsy hanoiñe t’Iehovà.
19 Nevertheless, the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, No; but we will have a king over us;
Fa nifoneñe tsy hañaoñe ty fiarañanaña’ i Samoele ondatio; le hoe iereo: Aiy! fa ho fehè’ i mpanjakay zahay;
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.
soa te ho hambañ’ amo kilakila’ ndatio; le hizaka anay ty mpanjaka’ay naho hionjoñe aolo’ay vaho hialy amo fihotakotaha’aio.
21 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
Jinanji’ i Samoele ze hene enta’ ondato le nisaontsie’e an-dravembia’ Iehovà,
22 And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken to their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said to the men of Israel, Go ye every man to his city.
vaho hoe t’Iehovà amy Samoele: Haoño avao ty fiarañanaña’ iareo le anendreo mpanjaka. Aa le hoe t’i Samoele amo ana’ Israeleo: Akia songa mb’ an-drova’e mb’eo.
