< Samuel 1 14 >
1 Gbe ɖeka la, Fiavi Yonatan gblɔ na ɖekakpui si nye eƒe adekplɔvi la be, “Na míato balime la ayi Filistitɔwo ƒe dzɔlawo gbɔ.” Ke megblɔe na fofoa be yeyina o.
Tsiku lina Yonatani mwana wa Sauli anawuza mnyamata wake womunyamulira zida zake za nkhondo kuti, “Tiye tiwoloke tipite ku kaboma ka Afilisti tsidya ilo.” Koma iye sanawuze abambo ake.
2 Saul kple eƒe aʋawɔla alafa adeawo ƒo ƒu ɖe yevuboɖati la gbɔ le Migron.
Sauli ankakhala mʼmalire a Gibeya pa tsinde pa mtengo wamakangadza ku Migironi. Anthu amene anali naye analipo 600.
3 Nunɔla Ahiya si do akɔtawui hã nɔ ameawo dome. Ahiya nye Ahitub, Ikabod nɔvi ƒe vi, eganye Finehas ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi eye Finehas fofoe nye Eli, Yehowa ƒe nunɔla le Silo. Ke ame aɖeke menya be Yonatan yi o.
Pakati pawo panalinso Ahiya amene ankavala efodi. Iye anali mwana wa Ahitubi, mʼbale wake wa Ikabodi mwana wa Finehasi, mwana wa Eli, wansembe wa Yehova wa ku Silo. Koma palibe amene anadziwa kuti Yonatani wachoka.
4 Hafi Yonatan naɖo Filistitɔwo ƒe dzɔlawo gbɔ la, ele nɛ be wòato mɔ xaxɛ aɖe si to agakpe eve dome la dzi. Woyɔa agakpe ɖeka be Bozez eye woyɔa evelia be Sene.
Pa mpata pamene Yonatani ankafuna kudutsa kukafika ku kaboma ka nkhondo ka Afilisti kunali thanthwe lotsetsereka mbali ina ndi lina lotsetsereka mbali inayo. Thanthwe limodzi linkatchedwa Bozezi ndipo linalo linkatchedwa Seni.
5 Agakpe anyiehetɔ nɔ Mikmas ŋgɔ eye dziehetɔ nɔ Geba ŋgɔ.
Thanthwe limodzi linali chakumpoto kuyangʼanana ndi Mikimasi, ndipo thanthwe linalo linali chakummwera kuyangʼanana ndi Geba.
6 Yonatan gblɔ na eƒe adekplɔvi be, “Na míayi aʋamatsomatsoetɔ mawo gbɔ, ɖewohĩ Yehowa awɔ nukunu aɖe na mí elabena amewo ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ menye naneke le Yehowa gbɔ o!”
Yonatani anawuza mnyamata wake womunyamulira zida uja kuti, “Tiye tiwoloke tipite ku kaboma ka anthu osachita mdulidwewo. Mwina Yehova adzatigwirira ntchito. Palibe chomuletsa Yehova kutipulumutsa, ngakhale tikhale ambiri kapena ochepa.”
7 Adekplɔvi la gblɔ be, “Yoo, wɔ nu si nyo na wò; mele yowòme sesĩe.”
Mnyamata uja anati, “Chitani chilichonse chimene mtima wanu ukhumba. Ine ndili nanu pamodzi. Chimene mtima wanu ukhumba ndi chomwenso ine ndikhumba.”
8 Yonatan gblɔ nɛ be, “Enyo, nu si míawɔ enye
Yonatani anati, “Tiye tsono tiwoloke kupita kumene kuli anthuwo ndi kukadzionetsa kwa iwo.
9 ne futɔwo kpɔ mí eye wogblɔ be, ‘Mitɔ ɖe afi ma ne menye nenema o la, míawu mi’ la, ekema míatɔ alala wo.
Akatiwuza kuti, ‘Imani pomwepo mpaka tikupezeni,’ ife tikangoyima pomwepo osapita kumene kuli iwoko.
10 Ke ne wogblɔ be, ‘Milia toa miava wɔ aʋa kpli mí’ la, ekema míawɔ nenema tutututu elabena eyae anye dzesi be Yehowa tsɔ wo de asi na mí.”
Koma akadzati, ‘Bwerani kuno,’ ndiye ife tikapitedi, chifukwa ichi chidzakhala chizindikiro chakuti Yehova wapereka mʼmanja mwathu.”
11 Esi Filistitɔwo kpɔ wo wogbɔna la, wodo ɣli be, “Mikpɔ ɖa, Israelviwo le dodom le woƒe dowo me!”
Choncho awiriwa anadzionetsa ku kaboma ka nkhondo ka Afilisti. Tsono Afilistiwo anati, “Taonani! Aheberi akutuluka mʼmaenje mʼmene anabisala.”
12 Wodo ɣli na Yonatan be, “Lia toa nàva kpɔ nane ɖa.” Yonatan gblɔ na eƒe adekplɔvi be, “Lia toa eye nànɔ yonyeme tututu elabena Yehowa akpe ɖe mía ŋu míaɖu wo dzi!”
Anthu a ku kaboma kaja anafuwula kwa Yonatani ndi mnyamata wake uja kuti, “Bwerani kuno ndipo tikuphunzitsani phunziro.” Ndipo Yonatani anati kwa mnyamata wake. “Nditsate pakuti Yehova wapereka Afilistiwa mʼmanja mwa Aisraeli.”
13 Ale wota le asi kple klo dzi yi wo gbɔ, kasia Filistitɔwo de asi sisi me esi Yonatan kple eƒe adekplɔvi la de asi wo wuwu me.
Choncho Yonatani anakwera mokwawa, ndipo mnyamata wake uja ankamutsata. Tsono Yonatani anathira nkhondo Afilisti aja namawagwetsa, ndipo mnyamata wake uja ankawapha pambuyo pa iyeyo.
14 Wowu wo dometɔ blaeve eye ame kukuawo kaka ɖe teƒe si de agbleka afã.
Nthawi yoyambayo Yonatani ndi mnyamata wake uja anapha anthu makumi awiri ndipo anawaphera pa malo ochepa okwanira ngati theka la ekala.
15 Nu sia na Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋawɔlawo kple nuhalawo sia vɔ̃ eye wotɔtɔ. Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la anyigba ʋuʋu sesĩe eye vɔvɔ̃ gaɖo futɔwo wu tsã elabena ŋɔdzi la tso Mawu gbɔ.
Tsono gulu lonse la ankhondo, ndiye kuti iwo amene anali mʼmisasa ndi mʼminda ndiponso iwo amene anali ku kaboma ka ankhondo kaja, onse anagwidwa ndi mantha aakulu. Dzikonso linagwedezeka, choncho anthu anachita mantha koopsa.
16 Saul ƒe gbetakpɔlawo le Benyamin ƒe Gibea kpɔ nu wɔnuku aɖe: wokpɔ Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋawɔlawo nɔ sisim tso afii yi afi mɛ.
Alonda a Sauli a ku Gibeya dziko la Benjamini atangomwaza maso anangoona chigulu cha asilikali chikumwazikana uku ndi uku.
17 Saul gblɔ na eƒe amewo be, “Mikpɔe ɖa be ame kae mele afi sia o.” Esi woxlẽ ameawo la, wokpɔ be Yonatan kple eƒe adekplɔvi menɔ wo dome o.
Kenaka Sauli anawawuza anthu amene anali naye kuti, “Awerengeni asilikali kuti muona amene wachoka.” Atawawerenga anapeza kuti Yonatani ndi mnyamata wake womunyamulira zida zake za nkhondo palibe.
18 Saul do ɣli gblɔ na Ahiya be, “Mitsɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la vɛ!” nubablaɖaka la nɔ Israelviwo dome ɣe ma ɣi.
Tsono Sauli anawuza Ahiya kuti, “Bwera nalo Bokosi la Mulungulo.” (Nthawi imeneyo nʼkuti efodiyo ili ndi Ahiya pamaso pa Aisraeli).
19 Ke esi Saul nɔ nu ƒom na nunɔlaa la, Filistitɔwo ƒe ɣlidodo kple ʋunyaʋunyawɔwɔ le woƒe asaɖa me nɔ dzi dem ɖe edzi. Saul gblɔ be, “Netsɔ! Nya kae Yehowa gblɔ?”
Pamene Sauli amayankhula ndi wansembe, phokoso limanka likulirakulira mu msasa wa Afilisti, Kotero Sauli anati kwa wansembe, “Leka kuwombeza.”
20 Saul kple eƒe ame alafa adeawo zɔ ɖe Filistitɔwo dzi. Wokpɔ be wonɔ wo nɔewo wum ko nyamanyama.
Ndipo Sauli ndi asilikali onse amene anali naye anasonkhana kupita kukamenya nkhondo, ndipo anangoona chisokonezo chachikulu kwambiri. Afilisti akuphana okhaokha.
21 Hebritɔ siwo nɔ Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ me tsã la, dze aglã eye wodzo va de Israelvi siwo le Saul kple Yonatan ŋu la dzi.
Aheberi ena amene kale anali ndi Afilisti mpaka kukakhala ku misasa yawo, iwonso anatembenuka nakhala pamodzi ndi Aisraeli amene ankatsata Sauli ndi Yonatani.
22 Mlɔeba la, esi Israelvi siwo ɣla wo ɖokuiwo ɖe Efraim toawo dzi la kpɔ be Filistitɔwo nɔ sisim la, woawo hã va kpe ɖe wo nɔviwo ŋu wonya Filistitɔwo ɖe du nu.
Ngakhale Aisraeli amene ankabisala ku dziko lamapiri la Efereimu atamva kuti Afilisti akuthawa, nawonso anawathamangitsa Afilistiwo nawathira nkhondo.
23 Ale Yehowa ɖe Israel gbe ma gbe eye wowɔ aʋa la dze le Bet Aven ŋu.
Nkhondo inapitirira mpaka kufika ku Beti-Aveni. Choncho Yehova anapulumutsa Aisraeli tsiku limenelo.
24 Ale Israelviwo ɖo xaxa gã aɖe me gbe ma gbe elabena Saul bla ameawo kple atam be, “Fiƒode ava ame si aɖu nu hafi fiẽ naɖo la dzi eye ame aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ aɖu nu o, va se ɖe esime mabia hlɔ̃ nye futɔwo!” Ale ame aɖeke meɖu nu la aʋakɔ me gbe ma gbe o.
Koma asilikali a Israeli anavutika tsiku limenelo, chifukwa Sauli anawalumbirira Aisraeli kuti, “Wotembereredwa munthu aliyense amene adzadya kusanade, ine ndisanalipsire adani anga!” Kotero palibe wankhondo aliyense amene analawa chakudya.
25 Aʋakɔ blibo la ge ɖe ave la me eye wokpɔ anyitsi le anyigba.
Gulu lonse la ankhondo linalowa mʼnkhalango mmene munali uchi.
26 Esi wole avea me la, wokpɔ anyitsi wole dzidzim gake ame aɖeke mede asi eme ɖuɖɔ o, elabena wovɔ̃ Saul ƒe atam si wòka la.
Atalowa mʼnkhalango, anaona uchi ukukha, koma palibe amene anadya, pakuti ankaopa lumbiro lija.
27 Ke Yonatan ya mese se si fofoa de o eya ta wòtsɔ eƒe atikplɔ tɔ anyitsia me heno eye ŋusẽ gaɖo eŋu.
Koma Yonatani sanamve kuti abambo ake anawalumbirira anthu aja choncho anatenga ndodo yake imene inali mʼdzanja lake ndipo anayipisa mu chisa cha njuchi. Choncho iye anadya uchiwo ndipo mʼmaso mwake munayera.
28 Ke ame aɖe gblɔ nɛ be fofoa, Saul, ƒo fi de ame sia ame si aɖu nane gbe ma gbe la, evɔ dɔwuame na ame sia ame gbɔdzɔ hafi.
Kenaka mmodzi mwa Asilikali anamuwuza kuti, “Abambo ako alumbirira anthu nati, ‘Wotembereredwa munthu aliyense amene adye chakudya lero.’ Nʼchifukwa chake anthu alefuka.”
29 Yonatan gblɔ be, “Se sesẽ kae nye esi fofonye de na ameawo? Se sia agblẽ nu le mía ŋu boŋ. Mikpɔ ale si ŋusẽ ɖo menye esi meno anyitsi sue sia ɖa!
Yonatani anati, “Abambo anga achita chinthu choyipira dziko. Taonani mʼmaso mwanga mwayera chifukwa ndalawa uchiwu pangʼono.
30 Nenye ɖe woɖe mɔ be ameawo naɖu nu si wokpɔ le futɔwo dome la, anye ne míagate ŋu awu futɔ gbogbo aɖewo wu esia gɔ̃ hã.”
Zikanakhala zabwino kwambiri anthuwa akanadya lero zofunkha za adani awo. Zikanatero tikanapha Afilisti ochuluka.”
31 Ke wotsɔ dɔwuame nya Filistitɔwo eye wowu wo tso Mikmas yi Aiyalon ke, le esime woƒe ɖeɖiteameŋu nu ganɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi.
Tsiku limenelo Aisraeli anapha Afilisti kuchokera ku Mikimasi mpaka ku Ayaloni. Koma Aisraeliwo analefuka kwambiri ndi njala.
32 Gbe ma gbe fiẽ la, wowu alẽ, nyi kple nyivi siwo woha le aʋa la me eye woɖu woƒe lã kple ʋua katã nenema.
Choncho iwo anathamangira pa zofunkha ndipo anatenga nkhosa, ngʼombe ndi ana angʼombe. Iwo anazipha zonsezi nazidya pamodzi ndi magazi omwe.
33 Ame aɖe gblɔ nya si dzɔ la na Saul be ameawo nɔ nu vɔ̃ wɔm ɖe Yehowa ŋu to nuɖuɖu me. Saul gblɔ be, “Nu sia mesɔ kura o! Mimli kpe gã aɖe vɛ nam
Koma anthu ena anawuza Sauli kuti, “Taona anthu akuchimwira Yehova pakudya nyama yomwe ili ndi magazi.” Ndipo Sauli anati, “Mwaonetsa kusakhulupirika. Tsopano gubuduzirani mwala waukulu pano.”
34 eye miagblɔ na ameawo be woahe nyiawo kple alẽwo ava wu le afi sia eye woatsyɔ ʋu le wo me ale be womawɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa ŋu to ʋuɖuɖu me o.” Ale ame ɖe sia ɖe kplɔ eƒe nyi ɖe asi yi le zã ma me eye wowu wo le afi ma.
Kenaka Sauli anati, “Mwazikanani pakati pa anthu ndi kukawawuza kuti aliyense abwere ndi ngʼombe yake kapena nkhosa yake, ndipo adzayiphe pomwe pano ndi kuyidya. Musachimwire Yehova pakudya nyama imene ili ndi magazi.” Kotero aliyense anabwera ndi ngʼombe yake usiku womwewo ndi kuyipha pomwepo.
35 Saul ɖi eƒe vɔsamlekpui gbãtɔ na Yehowa.
Ndipo Sauli anamangira Yehova guwa. Ili linali guwa loyamba limene Sauli anamangira Yehova.
36 Le esia megbe la, Saul gblɔ be, “Mina míanya Filistitɔwo to zã blibo la me eye míawu ame siwo susɔ la dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe.” Ameawo lɔ̃ ɖe edzi be, “Enyo; wɔ nu sia nu si dze ŋuwò.” Ke nunɔla la gblɔ be, “Mina míabia Mawu gbã.”
Sauli anati, “Tiyeni titsatire Afilisti usikuwu ndi kulanda zinthu zawo mpaka mmawa. Tisasiyepo wamoyo ndi mmodzi yemwe.” Ankhondowo anayankha kuti, “Chitani chilichonse chimene chikukomerani.” Koma wansembe anati, “Tipemphe uphungu kwa Mulungu poyamba.”
37 Ale Saul bia Mawu be, “Ɖe míayi Filistitɔwo nyanya dzia? Ɖe nàkpe ɖe mía ŋu míaɖu wo dzia?” Ke Yehowa meɖo nya aɖeke ŋu le zã blibo la me o.
Choncho Sauli anafunsa Mulungu kuti, “Kodi ndiwatsatire Afilisti? Kodi mukawapereka mʼmanja mwathu?” Koma Mulungu sanamuyankhe tsiku limenelo.
38 Ale Saul gblɔ na kplɔlawo be, “Ame aɖe wɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Mawu ŋu, ele be míadze si nu vɔ̃ si míewɔ egbe.
Choncho Sauli anati, “Bwerani kuno nonse atsogoleri a anthu, ndipo tiyeni tione kuti kodi tchimo limeneli lachitika bwanji lero?
39 Mele atam kam na Mawu ame si ɖe Israel dukɔ la be, nenye nye ŋutɔ vinye, Yonatan kurae wɔ nu vɔ̃ sia hã la aku kokoko.” Ke womekpɔ ame si wɔ nu vɔ̃ la o.
Pali Yehova amene amapulumutsa Israeli, ngakhale tchimolo litapezeka ndi mwana wanga Yonatani, iye afe ndithu.” Koma palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe mwa anthuwo amene anamuyankha.
40 Tete Saul gblɔ na Israelviwo katã be, “Mitsi tsitre ɖe afi ma ke nye kple vinye Yonatan míatsi tsitre ɖe afii.” Ameawo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔ nu sia nu si ke nyo na wo.”
Tsono Sauli anawuza Aisraeli onse kuti, “Inu mukhale mbali imodzi. Ine ndi mwana wanga Yonatani tikhala mbali inayo.” “Chitani chilichonse chimene chikukomerani.”
41 Ale Saul do gbe ɖa na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la be. “Nu ka ŋuti mètɔ na wò dɔla egbea o? Ne vodada la le menye alo vinye, Yonatan me la, ekema ɖo eŋu na mí to Urim dzi, gake nenye Israelviwo mee agɔdzedze la le la, tɔ na mí to Tumim dzi.” Ale wodzidze nu ɖe Yonatan kple Saul dzi eye wòdze wo dzi ale womebu fɔ ameawo o.
Ndipo Sauli anapemphera kwa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani simunandiyankhe ine mtumiki wanu lero lino? Ngati tchimoli lipezeka ndi ine kapena ndi Yonatani mwana wanga, Inu Mulungu wa Israeli, aoneke ndi Urimu. Koma ngati wochimwa ndi anthu anu, Aisraeli aoneke Tamimu.” Maere anagwera Sauli ndi Yonatani ndipo anthu anapezeka osalakwa.
42 Azɔ Saul gblɔ be, “Midzidze nu ɖe nye kple Yonatan dzi.” Esi woagadzidze nua la, edze Yonatan dzi.
Sauli anati, “Chitani maere pakati pa ine ndi Yonatani mwana wanga.” Ndipo maere anagwera Yonatani.
43 Saul gblɔ na Yonatan be, “Vinye, nu kae nèwɔ?” Yonatan gblɔ be, “Meɖɔ anyitsi sue aɖe kpɔ, sue aɖe si nɔ nye atikplɔ ŋu koe meɖuɖɔ, ke azɔ la medze na ku.”
Kenaka Sauli anati kwa Yonatani, “Ndiwuze chimene wachita.” Ndipo Yonatani anamuwuza kuti, “Ine ndinangolawa uchi pangʼono ndi ndodo yangayi. Ndiye ine ndili wokonzeka kufa.”
44 Saul gblɔ be, “Ɛ̃, Yonatan, ele be nàku, Mawu neƒom ƒu anyi maku ne womewu wò ɖe nu sia ta o.”
Sauli anati, “Mulungu andilange ngakhale kufa kumene, ngati sufa iwe Yonatani.”
45 Ke aʋawɔlawo ɖo eŋu be, “Yonatan, ame si ɖe Israel egbea nakua? Gbeɖe! Míeka atam kple Mawu ƒe agbe be ame aɖeke maka asi Yonatan ƒe taɖa ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã ŋu o elabena Mawu wɔ eŋu dɔ hewɔ nukunu triakɔ aɖe egbe.” Ale ameawo xɔ na Yonatan.
Koma anthuwo anafunsa Saulo kuti, “Kodi Yonatani afe, iye amene wagwira ntchito iyi yayikulu yopulumutsa Aisraeli? Osatheka! Pali Yehova ngakhale tsitsi ndi limodzi lomwe lapamutu pake silidzathothoka, pakuti wachita zimenezi lero ndi thandizo la Mulungu.” Choncho anthuwo anamupulumutsa Yonatani, ndipo sanaphedwe.
46 Saul na aʋawɔlawo gbugbɔ eye Filistitɔwo trɔ yi aƒe.
Pambuyo pake Sauli analeka kulondola Afilisti, kenaka anabwerera ku dziko lawo.
47 Esi Saul zu fia ɖe Israel dzi la, ewɔ aʋa kple woƒe futɔwo le akpa sia akpa dzi: Moabtɔwo, Amonitɔwo, Edomtɔwo, Zoba fiawo kple Filistitɔwo siaa. Afi sia afi si ke wotrɔ ɖo la, eɖua wo dzi vevie.
Sauli ali mtsogoleri wa Israeli, anachita nkhondo ndi adani awa omuzungulira: Mowabu, Amoni, Edomu mafumu a ku Zoba ndi Afilisti. Kulikonse kumene ankapita ankawagonjetsa.
48 Ewɔ aʋa kalẽtɔe, ɖu Amalekitɔwo dzi eye wòɖe Israel tso ame siwo katã ha wo la si me.
Anachita nkhondo mwamphamvu ndi kugonjetsa Aamaleki. Choncho anapulumutsa Aisraeli mʼmanja mwa anthu amene ankawalanda zinthu zawo.
49 Viŋutsu etɔ̃, Yonatan, Isvi kple Malki Sua kple vinyɔnu eve, Merab kple Mixal nɔ Saul si.
Ana aamuna a Sauli anali Yonatani, Isivi ndi Maliki-Suwa. Analinso ndi ana aakazi awiri, dzina la mwana wake wamkulu wamkazi linali Merabi ndipo la mwana wake wamngʼono wamkazi linali Mikala.
50 Saul srɔ̃e nye Ahinoam, Ahimaaz vinyɔnu. Eƒe aʋafiae nye Abner, etɔɖia Ner viŋutsu
Dzina la mkazi wake linali Ahinoamu. Iyeyu anali mwana wa Ahimaazi. Dzina la mkulu wa ankhondo a Sauli linali Abineri mwana wa Neri, mʼbale wa abambo a Sauli.
51 Saul fofo, Kis kple Abner fofo, Ner wonye Abiel viŋutsuwo.
Kisi abambo a Sauli ndi Neri abambo a Abineri anali ana a Abieli.
52 Israel wɔ aʋa kple Filistitɔwo edziedzi le Saul ƒe agbenɔɣi. Ne Saul kpɔ ɖekakpui sesẽ kalẽtɔ aɖe ko la, ehenɛ dea eƒe aʋakɔ la me.
Pa moyo wake wonse, Sauli ankakhalira kuchita nkhondo pakati pa Israeli ndi Afilisti. Ndipo Sauli ankati akaona munthu aliyense wamphamvu kapena wolimba mtima ankamulemba ntchito mu gulu lake lankhondo.
