1 Samuel 12
1 Forsothe Samuel seide to al Israel, Lo! Y herde youre vois bi alle thingis whiche ye spaken to me, and Y ordeynede a kyng on you;
Samwiri n’ayogera eri Isirayiri yenna, ng’agamba nti, “Mpulirizza buli kintu kye muŋŋambye, ne mbateerawo kabaka okubafuga.
2 and now the king goith bifor you. Sotheli Y wexide eld and hoor; forsothe my sones ben with you; therfor Y lyuyde bifor you fro my yong wexynge age `til to this dai. And lo!
Kaakano mulina kabaka ng’omukulembeze wammwe. Naye nze nkaddiye, mmeze n’envi, era n’abaana bange bali wano nammwe. Mbadde mukulembeze wammwe okuva mu buvubuka bwange n’okutuusa leero.
3 Y am redi; speke ye to me bifor the Lord, and bifor `the crist of hym; whether Y took `the oxe of ony man, ether the asse; if Y falsly chalengide ony mon; yf Y oppresside ony man; if Y took yifte of `the hond of ony man; and Y schal `dispise it to dai, and Y schal restore to you.
Nzuuno mu maaso gammwe. Munnumirize ensonga yonna mu maaso ga Mukama ne mu maaso g’oyo gwe yafukako amafuta. Ani gwe nnali ntwalidde ente ye? Oba ani gwe nnali ntwalidde endogoyi ye? Oba ani gwe nnali ndyazaamaanyizza? Oba ani gwe nnali njooze? Oba ani gwe nnali nsabye enguzi? Bwe wabaawo anvunaana mu nsonga yonna nzija kumuliyira.”
4 And thei seiden, Thou hast not falsly chalengid vs, nether hast oppressid vs, nether hast take ony thing of `the hond of ony man.
Ne baddamu nti, “Totunyagangako newaakubadde okutujooga, wadde okulya enguzi okuva mu mukono gw’omuntu yenna.”
5 And he seide to hem, The Lord is witnesse ayens you, and his crist is witnesse in this day; for ye han not founde ony thing in myn hond. And thei seiden, Witnesse.
Awo Samwiri n’abaddamu nti, “Mukama ye mujulirwa gye muli, era n’oyo gwe yafukako amafuta mujulirwa leero, nga sirina nsobi yonna mu maaso gammwe.” Ne baddamu nti, “Mujulirwa.”
6 And Samuel seide to the puple, The Lord, that made Moises and Aaron, and ledde youre fadris out of the lond of Egipt, is present;
Samwiri n’agamba abantu nti, “Mukama ye yalonda Musa ne Alooni era n’aggya bajjajjammwe mu Misiri.
7 now therfor stonde ye, that Y stryue bi doom ayens you bifor the Lord, of alle the mercyes of the Lord, whiche he dide with you, and with youre fadris.
Kale nno, musseeyo omwoyo mutege amatu mu maaso ga Mukama, eri okubalamula era n’okubajjukiza ebikolwa eby’obutuukirivu Mukama bye yabakolera mmwe ne bajjajjammwe.
8 Hou Jacob entride in to Egipt, and youre fadris crieden to the Lord; and the Lord sente Moises and Aaron, and ledde youre fadris out of Egipt, and settide hem in this place.
“Yakobo bwe yabeera mu Misiri, bajjajjammwe ne bakaabirira Mukama; Mukama yatuma Musa ne Alooni, abaabaggya mu Misiri, n’abateeka mu kifo kino.
9 Whiche foryaten her Lord God; and he bitook hem in the hond of Sisara, maystir of the chyualrie of Asor, and in the hond of Filisteis, and in the hond of the kyng of Moab; and thei fouyten ayens hem.
“Naye ne beerabira Mukama Katonda waabwe, kyeyava abatunda mu mukono gwa Sisera omuduumizi w’eggye lya Kazoli, ne mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti, ne mu mukono gwa kabaka wa Mowaabu, abaabalwanyisanga.
10 Sotheli afterward thei crieden to the Lord, and seiden, We synneden, for we forsoken the Lord, and seruyden Baalym and Astroth; now therfor delyuere thou vs fro `the hond of oure enemyes, and we schulen serue thee.
Abayisirayiri ne bakaabirira Mukama, nga boogera nti, ‘Twasobya, twava ku Mukama ne tuweereza Babaali ne Baasutoleesi. Naye kaakano tulokole okuva mu mukono gw’abalabe baffe, tunaakuweerezanga.’
11 And the Lord sente Gerobaal, and `Bedan, that is, Sampson, and Barach, and Jepte, and Samuel, and delyuerede you fro the hond of youre enemyes bi cumpass; and ye dwelliden tristili.
Mukama n’alyoka atuma Yerubbaali, ne Bedani, ne Yefusa ne Samwiri ne babalokola mu mukono gw’abalabe bammwe enjuuyi zonna, ne mutuula mirembe.
12 Forsothe ye sien, that Naas, kyng of the sones of Amon, cam ayens you; and ye seiden to me, counseilynge to axe noon other kyng than God, Nay, but a kyng schal comaunde to vs; whanne `youre Lord God regnede in you.
Naye bwe mwalaba Nakkasi kabaka w’Abamoni ng’abalumba, newaakubadde nga Mukama Katonda wammwe ye yali kabaka wammwe ne muŋŋamba nti, ‘Nedda, ffe twagala kabaka okutufuga.’
13 Now therfor youre kyng is redi, whom ye han chose and axid; lo! the Lord yaf to you a kyng.
Kaakano kabaka gwe mulonze era gwe mwasaba wuuno, era laba Mukama ataddewo kabaka okubafuga.
14 If ye dreden the Lord, and seruen hym, and heren his vois, and wraththen not the `mouth of the Lord; ye and youre kyng, that comaundith to you, schulen sue youre Lord God.
Bwe munaatyanga Mukama ne mumuweerezanga, ne mugonderanga eddoboozi lye, ne mutajeemera biragiro bye, mmwe ne kabaka abafuga ne mugobereranga Mukama Katonda wammwe, kinaabanga kirungi.
15 Forsothe if ye heren not the vois of `the Lord, but wraththen his word, the hond of the Lord schal be on you, and on youre fadris.
Naye bwe mutaagonderenga Mukama, ne mujeemera ebiragiro bye, omukono gwe gunaalwananga nammwe, nga bwe kyali ku bajjajjammwe.
16 But also now stonde ye, and se this gret thing which the Lord schal make in youre siyt.
“Kale nno mulindirire mulabe ekintu ekikulu Mukama kyagenda okukola mu maaso gammwe.
17 Whether heruest of whete is not `to dai? I schal inwardli clepe the Lord, and he schal yyue voices, `that is, thundris, and reynes; and ye schulen wite, and schulen se, for ye axynge a kyng on you han do greuouse yuel to you in the siyt of the Lord.
Bino kaakano si biseera bya kukungula ŋŋaano. Naye nzija kusaba Mukama, aweereze okubwatuka n’enkuba, mulyoke mutegeere nga kye mwakola okusaba kabaka kyali kibi mu maaso ga Mukama.”
18 And Samuel criede to the Lord, and the Lord yaf voices and reynes in that dai.
Awo Samwiri n’asaba Mukama, Mukama n’aweereza okubwatuka n’enkuba, abantu bonna ne batya nnyo Mukama ne Samwiri.
19 And al the puple dredde greetli the Lord and Samuel; and al the puple seide to Samuel, Preye thou for thi seruauntis to thi Lord God, that we die not; for we addiden yuel to alle oure synnes, that we axiden a kyng to vs.
Awo abantu bonna ne bagamba Samwiri nti, “Tusabire eri Mukama Katonda wo, ffe abaweereza bo, tuleme kufa, kubanga twongedde ku bibi byaffe ebirala byonna, bwe twasabye kabaka.”
20 Forsothe Samuel seide to the puple, `Nyle ye drede; ye han do al this yuel; netheles `nyle ye go awey fro the bak of the Lord, but serue ye the Lord in al youre herte;
Samwiri n’addamu abantu nti, “Temutya, okukola mwakola ebibi ebyo byonna, naye temuvanga ku Mukama, kaakano mumuweerezenga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna.
21 and nyle ye bowe aftir veyn thingis, that schulen not profite to you, nether schulen delyuere you; for tho ben veyn thingis.
Temukyukanga okugoberera ebintu ebitaliimu, ebitayinza kubagasa wadde okubawonya, kubanga tebiriimu nsa.
22 And the Lord schal not forsake his puple for his grete name; for the Lord swoor to make you a puple to hym silf.
Mukama tagenda kwabulira bantu be, olw’erinnya lye ekkulu, kubanga Mukama yasiima okubafuula ababe.
23 Forsothe this synne be fer fro me in the Lord, that Y ceesse to preye for you; and Y schal teche you a riytful weie and good.
Nze ku lwange, kikafuuwe, okwonoona eri Mukama ne ssibasabira; nnaabalaganga ekkubo ettuufu era eggolokofu.
24 Therfor drede ye the Lord, and `serue ye hym in treuthe, and of al youre herte; for ye sien tho grete thingis, whiche he `dide in you;
Kyokka mutyenga Mukama era mumuweerezenga n’obwesigwa n’omutima gwammwe gwonna, nga mujjukira ebintu ebikulu bye yabakolera.
25 that if ye contynuen in malice, bothe ye and youre kyng schulen perische to gidere.
Naye bwe muneeyongeranga okukola ebibi, mmwe ne kabaka wammwe mulizikirizibwa.”
