Samuel 1 10
1 Tete Samuel tsɔ amigoe eye wòkɔ amia ɖe Saul ƒe tame, hegbugbɔ nu nɛ eye wògblɔ be, “Ɖe Yehowa mesi ami na wò be nàɖu fia ɖe eƒe domenyinu dzi oa?
USamuyeli wasethatha umfuma wamafutha wawathela ekhanda likaSawuli wasemanga, esithi, “Uthixo kakugcobanga ukuba ngumbusi welifa lakhe na?
2 Ne èdzo le gbɔnye egbea la, àkpɔ ŋutsu eve aɖewo le Rahel ƒe yɔdo gbɔ le Zelza le Benyamin ƒe to la ƒe liƒo dzi. Woagblɔ na wò be, ‘Wofɔ tedzi siwo nèle didim. Fofowò megatsi dzi ɖe tedziawo ŋuti o ke boŋ etsi dzi ɖe ŋutiwò. Ele biabiam be, “Nu ka mawɔ tso vinye ŋuti?”’
Ekusukeni kwakho kimi lamhla, uzahlangana lamadoda amabili eduze kwengcwaba likaRasheli, eliseZeliza esemngceleni wakoBhenjamini. Azakuthi kuwe, ‘Obabhemi obuyebadinga sebetholakele. Khathesi uyihlo kasacabangi ngabo kodwa usekhathazeka ngawe. Uyabuza esithi, “Ngizakwenzanjani ngendodana yami na?”’
3 “Hafi nàdo ɖe Tabɔr ƒe logoti gbɔ la, ŋutsu etɔ̃ ava do go wò, ame siwo yina Mawu subɔ ge le Betel. Gbɔ̃vi etɔ̃ anɔ ɖeka si, abolo etɔ̃ anɔ evelia si eye wain go ɖeka anɔ etɔ̃lia si.
Uzahamba-ke usuka lapho uze ufike esihlahleni esikhulu saseThabhori. Amadoda amathathu aya kuNkulunkulu eBhetheli azahlangana lawe khonapho. Enye izathwala amazinyane embuzi amathathu, enye izinkwa ezintathu lenye umgodla wewayini.
4 Woado gbe na wò eye woana abolo eve wò. Xɔ aboloawo.
Azakubingelela akuphe izinkwa ezimbili, ozazamukela kuwo.
5 “Le esia megbe la, àva ɖo Mawu ƒe Gibea, afi si Filistitɔwo ƒe dzɔlawo le. Ne èɖo ta dua me la, àdo go Nyagblɔɖilawo ƒe ha siwo ɖiɖi tso kɔkɔƒe la gbɔna eye kasaŋkuwo, asiʋuiwo, kpẽwo kple gakasaŋkuwo anɔ ɖiɖim le wo ŋgɔ eye wole nya gblɔm ɖi.
Emva kwalokho, uzakuya eGibhiya kaNkulunkulu lapho okulesilindo sebutho lamaFilistiya khona. Lapho usubanga emzini, uzahlangana lodwendwe lwabaphrofethi besehla bevela endaweni ephakemeyo, phambi kwabo kutshaywa imiqangala lamagedla lemifece kanye lemihubhe, njalo bazakuba bephrofetha.
6 Yehowa ƒe gbɔgbɔ adze dziwò kple ŋusẽ, àgblɔ nya ɖi kpli wo, eye woatrɔ wò nàzu ame bubu sãa.
UMoya kaThixo uzakwehlela phezu kwakho ngamandla, lawe uzaphrofetha labo, njalo uzaguqulwa ube ngomunye umuntu.
7 Zi ale si dzesi siawo va eme la, wɔ nu sia nu si tsɔ asi gbɔ na wò elabena Mawu li kpli wò.
Izibonakaliso lezi zingagcwaliseka, yenza loba yini okubona kufanele ukuba ukwenze, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulawe.
8 Dze ŋgɔ nam nàyi Gilgal. Mava gbɔwò le afi ma ava sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ. Gake ele be nàlalam ŋkeke adre va se ɖe esime mava be magblɔ nu si nàwɔ la na wò.”
Hamba ungandulele eGiligali. Ngizakuza kuwe impela ngizenikela umhlatshelo weminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yobuzalwane. Kodwa kuzamele ulinde insuku eziyisikhombisa ngize ngifike kuwe ngikutshele okumele ukwenze.”
9 Esi Saul trɔ be yeadzo le Samuel gbɔ la, Mawu trɔ Saul ƒe dzi eye dzesi siawo katã va eme gbe ma gbe.
Kwathi uSawuli ephenduka esesuka kuSamuyeli, uNkulunkulu waguqula inhliziyo kaSawuli, njalo zonke izibonakaliso lezi zagcwaliseka mhlalokho.
10 Esi Saul kple subɔla la ɖo Gibea la, wodo go Nyagblɔɖilawo ƒe ha wogbɔna go do ge wo. Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ dze Saul dzi kple ŋusẽ eye eya hã de asi nyagbɔgblɔɖi me kpli wo.
Bathi befika eGibhiya, udwendwe lwabaphrofethi lwabahlangabeza; uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla, laye wahlanganyela ekuphrofitheni kwabo.
11 Esi ame siwo nya Saul tsã kpɔe wònɔ nya gblɔm ɖi kple nyagblɔɖilawo la, wobia wo nɔewo be, “Nu kae nye esi dzɔ ɖe Kis ƒe vi la dzĩ? Saul hãe le nyagblɔɖilawo domea?”
Kwathi labo ababevele bemazi bembona esephrofitha labaphrofethi, babuzana besithi, “Kuyini kanti lokhu osekwenzakale endodaneni kaKhishi? USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
12 Ŋutsu aɖe si nɔ ameawo dome la ɖo eŋu be, “Eye ame kae nye wo fofo?” Ale nya sia zu lodonya be, “Saul hãe le nyagblɔɖilawo domea?”
Umuntu owayehlala lapho waphendula wathi, “Uyise wabo ngubani na?” Ngakho kwaba yisitsho ukuthi: “USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
13 Esi Saul wu nyagblɔɖi la nu la, eyi ɖe to la dzi.
Kwathi uSawuli eseyekele ukuphrofetha, wasesiya endaweni ephakemeyo.
14 Azɔ la, Saul fofoa nɔvi ɖeka bia eya kple dɔla la be “Afi ka tututu mietso?” Saul ɖo eŋu be, “Míetso tedziawo di ge; míete ŋu kpɔ wo o, eya ta míeyi Nyagblɔɖila Samuel gbɔ be míabia afi si wole.”
Ngalesosikhathi uyise omncane kaSawuli wambuza kanye lenceku yakhe wathi, “Kanti kade lingaphi?” USawuli waphendula wathi, “Kade sidinga obabhemi. Kodwa kuthe sibona ukuthi kabatholakali, sasesisiya kuSamuyeli.”
15 Gblɔ nu si Samuel gblɔ na wò la nam.
Uyise omncane kaSawuli wasesithi, “Ngitshela ukuthi uSamuyeli utheni kuwe.”
16 Saul ɖo eŋu be, “Eka ɖe edzi nam be, wokpɔ tedziawo.” Gake megblɔ nu si Samuel gblɔ tso fiaɖuɖu la ŋuti ya na fofoa nɔvia o.
USawuli waphendula wathi, “Uqinise kithi ukuthi obabhemi sebebonakele.” Kodwa kamtshelanga uyise omncane okwakutshiwo nguSamuyeli ngobukhosi.
17 Azɔ la, Samuel na Israelviwo katã va kpe ta ɖe Yehowa ŋkume le Mizpa,
USamuyeli wabizela abantu bako-Israyeli kuThixo eMizipha
18 eye wògblɔ na wo be ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Mekplɔ mi tso Egiptenyigba dzi eye meɖe mi tso Egiptetɔwo kple dukɔ siwo katã nɔ fu wɔm mi la ƒe ŋusẽ me.
wathi kubo, “Nanku okutshiwo yiThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: ‘Ngakhupha u-Israyeli eGibhithe, njalo ngalikhulula esandleni seGibhithe lakuyo yonke imibuso eyayilincindezela.’
19 Ke, azɔ la, miegbe nu le miaƒe Mawu si ɖe mi tso dzɔgbevɔ̃ewo kple xaxawo katã me gbɔ hegblɔ be, ‘Ɖo fia na mí!’ Eya ta mido ɖe Yehowa ŋkume le miaƒe towo kple hlɔ̃wo me.”
Kodwa khathesi selimalile uNkulunkulu wenu, olihlengayo ezingozini zenu zonke lasezinsizini. Njalo selithe, ‘Hatshi, sibekele inkosi ezasibusa.’ Ngakho-ke khathesi zibonakaliseni phambi kukaThixo ngezizwana zenu langezinsendo zenu.”
20 Ale Samuel ƒo ƒu Israel ƒe toawo ƒe kplɔlawo ɖe Yehowa ŋkume eye wotia Benyamin ƒe to la.
Kwathi uSamuyeli esezilethe eduze zonke izizwana zako-Israyeli, isizwana sikaBhenjamini sakhethwa.
21 Samuel yɔ Benyamin ƒe to la ƒe ƒomewo va Yehowa ŋkume eye nudzidze la dze Matri ƒe ƒome la dzi. Mlɔeba la, nudzidze la dze Saul, Kis ƒe vi la dzi. Ke esi wotsa ŋku la, wokpɔ be Saul bu le ameawo dome.
Emva kwalokho waletha isizwana sikaBhenjamini phambili, usendo ngosendo, kwakhethwa usendo lukaMathiri. Ekucineni kwakhethwa uSawuli, indodana kaKhishi. Kodwa kwathi sebemdinga akaze abonakala.
22 Ale wogabia Yehowa be, “Amea le mía dome fifia?” Yehowa ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, eɣla eɖokui ɖe agbawo dome.”
Ngakho babuza njalo kuThixo bathi, “Umuntu lo uke wafika lapha na?” UThixo wathi, “Ye, usezifihle phakathi kwezimpahla.”
23 Woƒu du yi ɖakplɔe vɛ tso afi ma eye esi wòtsi tsitre ɖe ameawo dome la, ekɔ eye ameawo se eƒe abɔta.
Bagijima bayamkhipha, njalo kwathi esemi phakathi kwabantu, wayemude kulabo bonke.
24 Azɔ Samuel gblɔ na ameawo katã be, “Miele ame si Yehowa tia na mí la kpɔma? Ame aɖeke mesɔ kplii le Israel blibo la o!” Eye ameha la do ɣli be, “Fia la nenɔ agbe tegbee!”
USamuyeli wasesithi ebantwini bonke, “Liyambona yini umuntu osekhethwe nguThixo? Kakho lamunye onjengaye phakathi kwabantu bonke bako-Israyeli.” Abantu baklabalala besithi, “Impilo ende enkosini!”
25 Le esia megbe la, Samuel tɔ asi nu siwo anye fia la ƒe gome kple eƒe dɔdeasiwo la dzi na ameha la. Eŋlɔ nu siawo ɖe lãgbalẽ dzi eye wòtsɔe ɖo Yehowa ŋkume. Samuel ɖe asi le dukɔ la ŋu eye ame sia ame yi eƒe du me.
USamuyeli wachaza ebantwini imithetho yobukhosi. Wayiloba emqulwini wayibeka phambi kukaThixo. Emva kwalokho wabachitha abantu, ngulowo lalowo waya emzini wakhe.
26 Esi Saul trɔ va eƒe aƒe me le Gibea la, kalẽtɔ siwo ƒe dzi Mawu ʋã la yi kplii.
USawuli laye waya kibo eGibhiya ephelekezelwa ngabantu abangamaqhawe uNkulunkulu ayethinte inhliziyo zabo.
27 Gake ame vlo aɖewo gblɔ be, “Aleke ame sia tɔgbi ate ŋu aɖe mí?” Ale wodo vloe eye wometsɔ nunana ɖeke vɛ nɛ o, gake Saul megblɔ nya aɖeke o.
Kodwa ezinye izidlwangudlwangu zathi, “Umuntu lo angasikhulula kanjani na?” Zameyisa kazaze zamlethela zipho. Kodwa uSawuli wazithulela.
