< Samuel 1 11 >
1 Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Nahas kplɔ Amonitɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ eye woho aʋa ɖe Israelviwo ƒe du Yabes Gilead ŋu. Yabestɔwo bia ŋutifafa heɖe kuku be, “Migawɔ aʋa kpli mí o; míelɔ̃ be míazu miaƒe subɔlawo boŋ.”
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻa Naʻasi ko e tangata ʻAmoni, pea ne te u tau ki Sepesi-Kiliati: pea pehē ʻe he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, “Fai hoʻo fuakava mo kimautolu, pea te mau tauhi kiate koe.”
2 Nahas ɖo eŋu be, “Ekema mawɔ nu ɖeka; maho mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe ƒe ɖusimeŋku abe gbɔ̃ɖiɖi Israel dukɔ blibo la ene!”
Pea pehē ʻe Naʻasi ko e tangata ʻAmoni kiate kinautolu, “ʻI he meʻa ni pe te u fai ʻae fuakava mo kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke u kapeʻi homou mata toʻomataʻu kotoa pē ʻe tuku ia ko e meʻa manuki ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē.”
3 Yabes ƒe ametsitsiwo ɖo eŋu be, “Na ŋkeke adre mí ne míadɔ ame aɖo ɖe Israelnyigba blibo la dzi. Ne mía nɔviwo mava kpe ɖe mía ŋu o la, ekama míalɔ̃ ɖe wò tameɖoɖo la dzi.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻo Sepesi kiate ia, “Ke ke kātaki ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, koeʻuhi ke mau fekau ʻemau talafekau ki he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea pehē, kapau ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu, te mau ʻalu atu kiate koe.”
4 Esi dɔla aɖe va Gibea, Saul ƒe du me eye wògblɔ Yabestɔwo ƒe xaxa la ŋu nya na wo la, ame sia ame de asi avifafa me.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae kau talafekau ki Kipea ʻo Saula, pea fakahā ʻae ongoongo ki he telinga ʻoe kakai: pea naʻe hiki honau leʻo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo tangi.
5 Saul kplɔ eƒe nyiwo tso agble gbɔna va aƒe me eye wòbia be, “Nya kae dzɔ? Nu ka ta ame sia ame la avi fam?” Wogblɔ nya si wose tso Yabes la nɛ.
Pea vakai, naʻe muimui mai ʻa Saula ki he fanga manu, mei he ngoue; pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “Ko e hā ʻoku tangi ai ʻae kakai?” Pea naʻa nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae ongoongo ʻoe kau tangata ʻo Sepesi.
6 Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ ɖiɖi ɖe Saul dzi enumake eye wòdo dɔmedzoe vevie.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua kia Saula ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi ongoongo ni, pea tupu ai ʻene ʻita ʻo lahi.
7 Ewu nyitsu eve, fli woƒe lã eye wòɖo lãkɔawo ɖe Israelnyigba ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe. Eɖe gbeƒã be, “Aleae woawɔ ame sia ame si madze Saul kple Samuel yome ayi aʋa o la ƒe nyitsue nye esi!” Yehowa na ameawo vɔ̃ Saul ƒe dɔmedzoe ale wo katã ƒo ƒu va Saul gbɔ.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae fanga pulu ʻe ua, pea tuʻutuʻu ke iiki, pea fekau ke ʻave ʻo tufaki ki he ngaahi potu kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he nima ʻoe kau tangata fekau, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ʻo muimui ʻia Saula mo Samuela, ʻe fai pehē pe ki heʻene fanga pulu.” Pea naʻe tō ki he kakai ʻae manavahē kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau hiki loto taha pe kituaʻā.
8 Saul xlẽ wo le Bezek eye Israelviwo le ame akpe alafa etɔ̃ kpe ɖe ame akpe blaetɔ̃ siwo tso Yuda la ŋu.
Pea ʻi heʻene lau ʻakinautolu ʻi Piseki, naʻe toko tolu kilu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli pea toko tolu mano ʻae fānau ʻa Siuta.
9 Saul ɖo du ɖe Yabes Gileadtɔwo be, “Míaɖe mi tso miaƒe futɔwo si me hafi etsɔ ɣetrɔ naɖo!” Dua me tɔwo tso aseye esi wose nya sia.
Pea naʻa nau pehē ki he kau talafekau naʻe haʻu, Ke mou lea pehē ki he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, “Ko e ʻapongipongi, ʻo feʻunga mo e mafana ʻoe laʻā, te mou maʻu ʻae tokoni.” Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata fekau ʻo fakahā ia ki he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi: pea naʻa nau fiefia ai.
10 Ale Yabestɔwo gblɔ na woƒe futɔwo be, “Míava mia gbɔ etsɔ eye miawɔ nu sia nu si dze mia ŋu la mí.”
Ko ia naʻe tala ai ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi, “Te mau ʻalu atu kiate kimoutolu ʻapongipongi, pea te mou fai kiate kimautolu ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku matalelei kiate kimoutolu.”
11 Saul va do ŋdi kanya kple eƒe aʋakɔ si wòma ɖe aʋalɔgo etɔ̃ me. Edze Amonitɔwo dzi kpata eye wòwu wo tso ŋdi ma va se ɖe ŋdɔ. Ame siwo tsi agbe la kaka ale gbegbe be wo dometɔ eve aɖeke menɔ teƒe ɖeka o.
Pea hoko ki he ʻapongipongi, pea pehē, naʻe fokotuʻu vahe tolu ʻe Saula ʻae kakai; pea naʻa nau hoko ki he lotolotonga ʻoe tau ʻi he lakanga leʻo pongipongi, ʻo taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻAmoni ʻo aʻu ki he pupuha ʻoe ʻaho: pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu naʻe toe, naʻe ʻikai tuʻu fakataha ha toko ua.
12 Ameawo bia Samuel kple ɣli be, “Afi ka ame siwo be Saul manyo na mí o la le? Mikplɔ wo va afi sia ne míawu wo!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kia Samuela, ko hai ia naʻe pehē, “ʻE pule koā ʻa Saula kiate kimautolu? Omi ʻae kau tangata, koeʻuhi ke mau tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu.”
13 Ke Saul gblɔ be, “Womawu ame aɖeke egbe o elabena Yehowa ɖe Israel egbe!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “ʻE ʻikai ha tangata ʻe tokotaha ʻe tāmateʻi he ʻaho ni: he kuo fai ʻae fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻi ʻIsileli he ʻaho ni.”
14 Samuel gblɔ na ameawo be, “Mina mí katã míayi Gilgal eye míada asi ɖe Saul dzi abe míaƒe fia ene.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kakai, “Haʻu ke tau ō ki Kilikali, ō fakamaʻu ke maʻu ʻae puleʻanga ʻi ai.”
15 Ale woyi Gilgal eye woɖo Saul fiae le Yehowa ŋkume. Wosa akpedavɔ na Yehowa eye Saul kple Israelviwo katã kpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔŋutɔ.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki Kilikali; pea naʻa nau fakanofo ʻi ai ʻa Saula ke tuʻi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi Kilikali; pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau ko e feilaulau fakalelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; pea naʻe fiefia lahi ʻi ai ʻa Saula mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli.
