1 Samuel 28
1 Forsothe it was doon in tho daies, Filisteis gaderiden her cumpenyes, that thei schulden be maad redi ayens Israel to batel. And Achis seide to Dauid, Thou witynge `wite now, for thou schalt go out with me in castels, thou and thi men.
Siku zile Wafilisti wakakusanya majeshi yao ili kupigana vita dhidi ya Israeli. Akishi akamwambia Daudi, “Lazima ujue kuwa wewe pamoja na watu wako mtafuatana nami kwenda vitani.”
2 And Dauid seide to Achis, Now thou schalt wyte what thingis thi seruaunt schal do. And Achis seide to Dauid, And Y schal sette thee kepere of myn heed in alle dayes.
Daudi akasema, “Ndipo wewe mwenyewe utakapojionea jambo ambalo mtumishi wako anaweza kufanya.” Akishi akamjibu Daudi, “Vyema sana, mimi nitakufanya uwe mlinzi wangu daima.”
3 Forsothe Samuel was deed, and al Israel biweilide hym, and thei birieden hym in Ramatha, his citee. And Saul dide awey fro the lond witchis and fals dyuynours, `and he slouy hem that hadden `charmers of deuelis `in her wombe.
Wakati huo Samweli alikuwa amekufa, nao Israeli wote walikuwa wamemwombolezea na kumzika kwenye mji wake mwenyewe huko Rama. Sauli alikuwa amewafukuza waaguzi na wachawi.
4 And Filisteis weren gaderid, and camen, and settiden tentis in Sunam; sotheli and Saul gaderide al Israel, and cam in to Gelboe.
Wafilisti wakakusanyika na kupiga kambi yao huko Shunemu, naye Sauli akawakusanya Waisraeli wote na kupiga kambi yao huko Gilboa.
5 And Saul siy the castels of Filisteis, and he dredde, and his herte dredde greetli.
Sauli alipoona jeshi la Wafilisti, akaogopa; moyo wake ukajawa na hofu kuu.
6 And he counselide the Lord; and the Lord answeride not to hym, nether bi preestis, nether bi dremes, nether bi profetis.
Ndipo Sauli akauliza ushauri kwa Bwana, lakini Bwana hakumjibu kwa ndoto, wala kwa Urimu, wala kwa njia ya manabii.
7 And Saul seide to hise seruauntis, Seke ye to me a womman hauynge a feend spekynge in the wombe; and Y schal go to hir, and Y schal axe bi hir. And hise seruauntis seiden to hym, A womman hauynge a feend spekynge in the wombe is in Endor.
Basi Sauli akawaambia watumishi wake, “Nitafutieni mwanamke mwaguzi ili nimwendee, nipate kuuliza kwake.” Watumishi wake wakamwambia, “Yuko mwanamke mmoja huko Endori.”
8 Therfor Saul chaungide his clothing, and he was clothid with othere clothis; and he yede, and twei men with hym; and thei camen to the womman in the nyyt. And he seyde, Dyuyne thou to me in a fend spekynge in the wombe, and reise thou to me whom Y schal seie to thee.
Hivyo Sauli akajigeuza kwa kuvaa mavazi mengine, naye usiku akiwa amefuatana na watu wawili wakaenda kwa huyo mwanamke. Akamwambia, “Nibashirie kwa uaguzi, unipandishie yule nitakayekutajia.”
9 And the womman seide to hym, Lo! thou woost hou grete thingis Saul hath do, and hou he dide awei fro the lond witchis, and fals dyuynours; whi therfor settist thou tresoun to my lijf, that Y be slayn?
Huyo mwanamke akamwambia, “Wewe unajua lile alilofanya Mfalme Sauli. Amewakatilia mbali waaguzi, wapiga ramli wote na wachawi katika nchi. Mbona umenitegea maisha yangu ili wapate kuniua?”
10 And Saul swoor to hir in the Lord, and seide, The Lord lyueth; for no thing of yuel schal come to thee for this thing.
Sauli akamwapia huyo mwanamke kwa Jina la Bwana, akasema, “Kwa hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, hutaadhibiwa kwa ajili ya jambo hili.”
11 And the womman seide to hym, Whom schal Y reise to thee? And he seide, Reise thou Samuel to me.
Ndipo yule mwanamke akauliza, “Je unataka nikupandishie nani?” Sauli akasema, “Nipandishie Samweli.”
12 Sotheli whanne the womman hadde seyn Samuel, sche criede with greet vois, and seide to Saul, Whi hast thou disseyued me? for thou art Saul.
Yule mwanamke alipomwona Samweli, alipiga yowe kwa sauti kuu, naye akamuuliza Sauli, “Mbona umenidanganya? Wewe ndiwe Sauli.”
13 And the kyng seide to hir, Nyl thou drede; what hast thou seyn? And the womman seide to Saul, Y siy goddis stiynge fro erthe.
Mfalme akamwambia, “Usiogope. Unaona nini?” Yule mwanamke akasema, “Naona mungu unapanda kutoka ardhini.”
14 And Saul seide to hir, What maner forme is of hym? And sche seide, An eld man stieth, and he is clothid with a mentil. And Saul vndirstood that it was Samuel; and Saul bowide hym silf on his face to the erthe, and worschipide.
Sauli akamuuliza, “Ni mfano wa nini?” Yule mwanamke akasema, “Ni mwanaume mzee amevaa joho anayepanda.” Ndipo Sauli akatambua kwamba ni Samweli. Sauli akasujudu kifudifudi, uso wake hadi ardhini.
15 Sotheli Samuel seide to Saul, Whi hast thou disesid me, that Y schulde be reisid? And Saul seide, Y am constreyned greetli; for Filisteis fiyten ayens me, and God yede awei fro me, and he nolde here me, nether bi the hond of profetis, nether bi dremes; therfor Y clepide thee, that thou schuldist schewe to me what Y schal do.
Samweli akamuuliza Sauli, “Kwa nini unanitaabisha kwa kunipandisha juu?” Sauli akasema, “Mimi ninasumbuka sana, kwa maana Wafilisti wanapigana vita dhidi yangu, naye Mungu ameniacha. Hanijibu tena wala kwa njia ya manabii wala kwa ndoto. Kwa hiyo nimekuita wewe ili unijulishe la kufanya.”
16 And Samuel seide, What axist thou me, whanne God hath go awei fro thee, and passide to thin enemy?
Samweli akamuuliza, “Kwa nini uniulize mimi, maadamu Bwana amekuacha na kuwa adui yako?
17 For the Lord schal do to thee as he spak in myn hond, and he schal kitte awey thi rewme fro thin hond, and he schal yyue it to Dauid, thi neiybore;
Bwana ametenda lile alilotangulia kusema kupitia kwangu. Bwana ameurarua ufalme kutoka mikononi mwako, naye amempa mmoja wa jirani zako, yaani Daudi.
18 for thou obeiedist not to the vois of the Lord, nether didist the `ire of hys strong veniaunce in Amalech. Therfor the Lord hath do to thee to day that that thou suffrist;
Kwa sababu wewe hukumtii Bwana, wala hukumtimizia ghadhabu yake kali juu ya Waamaleki, Bwana amekutendea mambo haya leo.
19 and the Lord schal yyue also Israel with thee in the hond of Filisteis. Forsothe to morewe thou and thi sones schulen be with me; but also the Lord schal bitake the castels of Israel in the hond of Filistiym.
Zaidi ya hayo, Bwana atawatia Israeli pamoja na wewe mikononi mwa Wafilisti, na kesho wewe na wanao mtakuwa pamoja nami. Bwana pia atalitia jeshi la Israeli mikononi mwa Wafilisti.”
20 And anoon Saul felde stretchid forth to erthe; for he dredde the wordis of Samuel, and strengthe was not in hym, for he hadde not ete breed in al that dai and al nyyt.
Papo hapo Sauli akaanguka chini, akajinyoosha, akiwa amejawa na hofu kwa ajili ya maneno ya Samweli. Nguvu zake zikamwishia kwa maana alikuwa hajala chochote mchana ule wote na usiku.
21 Therfor thilke womman entride to Saul, and seide; for he was disturblid greetli; and sche seide to hym, Lo! thin handmayde obeiede to thi vois, and Y haue put my lijf in myn hond, and Y herde thi wordis, whiche thou spakist to me.
Yule mwanamke alipomwendea Sauli na kumwona amepatwa na hofu, akamwambia, “Tazama, mimi mtumishi wako mwanamke nimekutii. Nimeweka maisha yangu hatarini kwa kufanya kile ulichoniagiza nifanye.
22 Now therfor and thou here the vois of thin handmaide, and Y schal sette a mussel of breed bifor thee, and that thou etynge wexe strong, and maist do the iourney.
Sasa tafadhali isikilize sauti ya mtumishi wako, uniruhusu nikupatie chakula kidogo ule ili uwe na nguvu za kurejea ulikotoka.”
23 And he forsook, and seide, Y schal not ete. Sothely hise seruauntis and the womman compelliden hym; and at the laste, whanne the vois of hem was herd, he roos fro the erthe, and sat on the bed.
Akakataa, akisema, “Mimi sitaki kula.” Lakini watumishi wake wakaungana na yule mwanamke wakamsihi ale, naye akakubali. Basi akainuka hapo chini, akaketi juu ya kitanda.
24 Sotheli thilke womman hadde a fat calf in the hows, and `sche hastide, and killide hym; and sche took mele, and meddlide it, and made therf breed;
Yule mwanamke alikuwa na ndama aliyenona hapo nyumbani, akamchinja mara moja. Akachukua unga, akaukanda, akatengeneza mkate usio chachu.
25 and settide bifor Saul and bifor hise seruauntis, and whanne thei hadden ete, thei risiden, and walkiden bi al that nyyt.
Ndipo akamwandalia meza Sauli pamoja na watu wake, nao wakala. Usiku ule ule wakainuka na kwenda zao.
