< Samuel 1 13 >
1 Saul xɔ ƒe blaetɔ̃ esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia ƒe blaene-vɔ-eve, ɖe Israel dzi;
Naʻe pule ʻa Saula ʻi he tau ʻe taha; pea hili ʻene pule ʻi he taʻu ʻe ua ki ʻIsileli,
2 etia aʋawɔla tɔxɛ akpe etɔ̃ tso Israel. Ekplɔ wo dometɔ akpe eve ɖe eɖokui ŋuti yi Mikmas kple Betel to la dzi eye wògblẽ akpe ɖeka mamlɛa ɖe Yonatan, Saul ƒe vi gbɔ le Benyamin ƒe anyigba dzi. Eɖo asrafo bubuawo ɖe aƒe me.
Naʻe fili ʻe Saula ʻene kau tangata ʻe toko tolu afe mei ʻIsileli: naʻe ʻia Saula ʻi Mikimasi, pea ʻi he moʻunga ko Peteli ʻae toko ua afe, pea naʻe ʻia Sonatane ʻi Kipea ʻo Penisimani ʻae toko taha afe: pea ko hono toe ʻoe kakai naʻa ne fekau ke ʻalu ʻae tangata taki taha ki hono fale fehikitaki.
3 Yonatan si Filistitɔwo ƒe dzɔlawo le Geba eye nya sia ɖi le Filistitɔwo ƒe anyigba blibo la dzi. Eye Saul ku aʋakpẽ le Israelnyigba blibo la dzi eye wòɖe gbeƒã be “Hebritɔwo katã nesee.”
Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sonatane ʻae kolo tau ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻaia naʻe ʻi Kipea, pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻae kakai Filisitia. Pea naʻe ifi meʻalea ʻe Saula ʻi he potu fonua kotoa pē, ʻo ne pehē, Ke ongoʻi ʻe he kakai Hepelū.
4 Ale Israel dukɔ la se nyadzɔdzɔ la be: Saul tsrɔ̃ Filistitɔwo ƒe dzɔlawo eye Israel zu nuɖianu na Filistitɔwo. Ale woyɔ Israel ƒe aʋakɔ blibo la ƒo ƒu ɖe Saul ŋu le Gilgal.
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki he lea, kuo taaʻi ʻe Saula ha kolo tau ʻae kakai Filisitia, pea kuo fehiʻanekina ʻaupito ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai Filisitia. Pea naʻe fekau ke fakataha ʻae kakai kia Saula ʻi Kilikali.
5 Filistitɔwo ƒo ƒu aʋakɔ gã aɖe si me tasiaɖam akpe etɔ̃ kple sɔdola akpe ade kple afɔzɔla siwo sɔ gbɔ abe ƒutake ene la nɔ be woawɔ aʋa kple Israel. Woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Mikmas, le Bet Aven ƒe ɣedzeƒe gome.
Pea naʻe kātoa fakataha ʻae kakai Filisitia ke tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e ngaahi saliote ʻe tolu mano, mo e kau tangata heka hoosi ʻe toko ono afe, pea ko e kakai naʻe hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻi he matātahi honau tokolahi: pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻo nofo ʻi Mikimasi, ʻi he potu hopoʻangalaʻā mei Pete-ʻAveni.
6 Esi Israel ŋutsuwo kpɔ xaxa gã si me wonɔ kple ale si womimi woƒe aʋakɔ la ɖoe la, wosi yi ɖaɣla ɖe agadowo, avekɔewo, kpewo tome kple ʋewo me kple vudo siwo me tsi menɔ o la me.
Pea ʻi he vakai ʻae kau tangata ʻIsileli kuo ʻākilotoa ʻakinautolu (he naʻe mamahi ʻae kakai), naʻe fakatoitoi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ʻi he ngaahi ʻana, mo e ngaahi vaofihi, pea ʻi he ngaahi maka, mo e potu māʻolunga, pea ʻi he ngaahi luo.
7 Hebritɔ aɖewo gɔ̃ la tso Yɔdan tɔsisi la eye wosi yi Gad kple Gileadnyigbawo gɔ̃ hã dzi. Saul ya tsi Gilgal eye aʋakɔ siwo nɔ eŋu la dzo nyanyanya le vɔvɔ̃ ta.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau Hepelū niʻihi ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ki he fonua ʻo Kata mo Kiliati, ka ko Saula naʻe kei ʻi Kilikali ia, pea naʻe muimui tetetete pe ʻae kakai kiate ia.
8 Elala ŋkeke adre abe ale si Samuel ɖoe nɛ ene, gake Samuel meva Gilgal o eye Saul ƒe asrafowo de asi kaka le eŋu me.
Pea naʻe tatali ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻo fakatatau ki he ʻaho naʻe kotofa ʻe Samuela: ka naʻe ʻikai haʻu ʻa Samuela ki Kilikali; pea naʻe movetevete ʻae kakai ʻiate ia.
9 Ale wògblɔ be, “Mitsɔ numevɔsa kple akpedavɔsa vɛ nam.” Ale Saul sa numevɔ la.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “ʻOmi ki heni kiate au ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo e feilaulau fakalelei.” Pea naʻa ne ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu.
10 Esi wòwu vɔsawo nu vɔ tetee ko la, Samuel va do. Saul yi be yeakpee ado gbe nɛ.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili leva ʻene fakaʻosi ʻene ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu, vakai, kuo hoko mai ʻa Samuela; pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Saula ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia, ke na feʻiloaki.
11 Samuel biae be, “Nu kae nye esi nèwɔ?” Saul ɖo eŋu be, “Esi mekpɔ be nye aʋawɔlawo le kakam le ŋunye, evɔ mèva ɖo le ɣeyiɣi si nèɖo nam la dzi o, gawu la Filistitɔwo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Mikmas.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “Ko e hā ia kuo ke fai?” Pea pehē ʻe Saula, “Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku vakai kuo movete ʻae kakai meiate au, pea naʻe ʻikai te ke hoko mai ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho naʻe kotofa, pea kuo kātoa fakataha ʻae kau Filisitia ki Mikimasi:
12 Eya ta mesusui be azɔ la, Filistitɔwo ava dze dzinye le Gilgal evɔ nyemebia amenuveve tso Yehowa gbɔ o! Esia zi dzinye eye mewɔ numevɔsa la.”
Ko ia naʻaku pehē ai, ‘Ko eni ʻe hoko hifo kiate au ʻae kau Filisitia ki Kilikali, ka ʻoku teʻeki ai te u fai ʻae hū kia Sihova’: ko ia ne u kātaki ai au ʻo ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu.”
13 Samuel gblɔ be, “Èwɔ bometsinu, mèlé Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe se si wòde na wò la me ɖe asi o. Nenye ɖe nèlé eme ɖe asi la, anye ne aɖo wò fiaɖuƒe la anyi le Israel hena ɣeyiɣiawo katã.
Pea pehē ʻe Samuela kia Saula, “Kuo ke fai vale: kuo ʻikai te ke tauhi ʻae fekau ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fekau kiate koe: ka ne pehē, kuo fokotuʻumaʻu ʻe Sihova ho puleʻanga ki ʻIsileli ʻo taʻengata.
14 Ke azɔ la, wò fiaɖuƒe mali ke o. Yehowa di ame si eƒe dzi di la na eɖokui eye wòɖoe eƒe dukɔ la ƒe kplɔlae elabena mèlé Yehowa ƒe sedede me ɖe asi o.”
Ka ko eni ʻe ʻikai tuʻumaʻu ho puleʻanga: kuo fili ʻe Sihova ha tangata maʻana ʻo hangē ko hono loto ʻoʻona, pea kuo fekau ʻe Sihova kiate ia ke ʻeiki ia ki hono kakai, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ke tauhi ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate koe.”
15 Tete Samuel dzo le Gilgal yi Gibea le Benyaminviwo ƒe anyigba dzi. Esi Saul xlẽ eƒe aʋawɔlawo la, ekpɔ be ame alafa ade koe susɔ!
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Samuela, ʻo ʻalu mei Kilikali ki Kipea ʻo Penisimani. Pea naʻe lau ʻe Saula ʻae kakai naʻe ʻiate ia, ko e toko onongeau nai.
16 Saul kple Yonatan kple ame alafa ade siawo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Gibea le Benyaminviwo ƒe anyigba dzi le esime Filistitɔwo ganɔ Mikmas.
Pea ko Saula mo hono foha ko Sonatane, pea mo e kakai naʻe ʻiate kinaua, naʻa nau nofo ʻi Kipea ʻo Penisimani: ka naʻe ʻapitanga ʻae kakai Filisitia ʻi Mikimasi.
17 Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋalɔgo etɔ̃ ho tso woƒe asaɖa me be yewoayi aɖaha nuwo. Aʋalɔgo ɖeka ɖo ta Ofra le Sual nyigba dzi;
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae vahe ʻe tolu ʻoe kau maumau mei he nofoʻanga tau ʻoe kau Filisitia: naʻe ʻalu ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ki Ofila, ki he fonua ko Suali:
18 aʋalɔgo evelia yi Bet Horon eye etɔ̃lia ɖo ta liƒo si le Zeboim ƒe balime te ɖe gbegbe la ŋu la dzi.
Pea naʻe afe ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ki Pete-holoni: pea ʻalu ʻae kautau ʻe taha ki he hala ʻoe veʻe fonua ʻoku hanga atu ki he teleʻa ʻo Sipoimi ʻo hanga atu ki he toafa.
19 Gbede aɖeke menɔ Israelnyigba blibo la dzi le ŋkeke mawo me o elabena Filistitɔwo gblɔ bena, ne menye nenema o la, Hebritɔwo ava tu yiwo alo akplɔwo!
Pea ko eni, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloʻi ha tufunga tuki ukamea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: he ne pehē ʻe he kau Filisitia, Telia naʻa tuki ʻe he kau Hepelū ʻae ngaahi heletā mo e tao maʻanautolu.
20 Eya ta ɣe sia ɣi si Israelviwo di be yewoanyre yewoƒe agbleŋlɔnuwo, fiawo kple nuxanuwo la, wotsɔa wo yia Filistitɔwo ƒe gbedewo gbɔ.
Ka naʻe ʻalu hifo ki he kau Filisitia ʻae kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ke fakamata taki taha ʻae tangata hono huotoho, mo ʻene hele, mo ʻene toki, mo ʻene huo keli.
21 Nenye be wonyre agbleŋlɔnuawo la, woxea klosaloga gram enyi, nenema kee nye fi hã, ke woxea klosaloga gram ene ɖe gaflu kple fiawo hekpe ɖe nuŋɔnuwo nyenyre ŋuti.
Ka naʻa nau maʻu ʻae kili fakamata ki he huo keli, pea ki he hele, mo e ngaahi huhuʻi pea mo e ngaahi toki, pea ke fakamata ʻae meʻa kini.
22 Ale yi alo akplɔ aɖeke menɔ Israel ƒe aʋakɔ blibo la si gbe ma gbe o negbe ɖekaɖeka siwo nɔ Saul kple Yonatan si ko.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe tau, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa ha heletā pe ha tao ʻi he nima ʻo ha tokotaha ʻi he kakai naʻe ʻia Saula mo Sonatane: ka ko Saula mo hono foha ko Sonatane, naʻe ʻilo ai ia.
23 Azɔ Filistitɔwo ɖe asrafo aɖewo woyi ɖaxɔ mɔ si ɖo ta Mikmas.
Pea naʻe hiki kituʻa ʻae ʻapitanga ʻoe kau Filisitia ke ʻalu ki he potu ʻaluʻanga ki Mikimasi.
