Mʼmasiku amenewo Afilisti anasonkhanitsa ankhondo awo kuti akamenyane ndi Aisraeli. Akisi anawuza Davide kuti, “Udziwe kuti iwe pamodzi ndi anthu ako mudzapita nane ku nkhondo.”
2 David ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ekema wò ŋutɔ àkpɔe na ɖokuiwò, nu si wò dɔla ate ŋu awɔ.” Akis ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo matsɔ wò awɔ ŋunyedzɔlae hena wò agbemeŋkekewo katã.”
Davide anayankha kuti, “Tsono inu mudzaona zimene mtumiki wanune ndingachite.” Akisi anayankha kuti, “Chabwino ine ndidzakuyika iwe kukhala mlonda wanga moyo wako wonse.”
3 Azɔ la, Samuel ku eye Israel dukɔ blibo la fae, woɖii ɖe wo de le Rama. Fia Saul ɖe ŋɔliyɔlawo kple afakalawo katã ɖa le Israelnyigba la dzi.
Nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti Samueli atamwalira, ndipo Aisraeli onse anamulira namuyika mʼmanda ku mzinda wake wa Rama. Sauli anali atachotsa mʼdzikomo anthu owombeza mawula ndi woyankhula ndi mizimu ya anthu akufa.
4 Filistitɔwo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Sunem, ke Saul ƒo Israel blibo la nu ƒu eye woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Gilead.
Tsono Afilisti anasonkhana nabwera kudzamanga misasa yawo ku Sunemu. Nayenso Sauli anasonkhanitsa Aisraeli onse ndi kumanga misasa yawo ku Gilibowa.
5 Esi Saul kpɔ Filistitɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ la, dzidzi ƒoe eye wòvɔ̃ ŋutɔ.
Sauli ataona gulu lankhondo la Afilisti anaopa ndipo ananjenjemera kwambiri.
6 Ebia nu si wòawɔ la Yehowa, ke Yehowa meɖo nya aɖeke ŋu nɛ to drɔ̃ekuku me, alo to Urim dzi loo alo to nyagblɔɖilawo dzi o.
Choncho Sauli anafunsa nzeru kwa Yehova koma Yehova sanamuyankhe ngakhale kudzera mʼmaloto, kapena mwa Urimu ngakhalenso kudzera mwa aneneri.
7 Ale Saul gblɔ na eƒe subɔlawo be, “Midi nyɔnu aɖe si nye ŋɔliyɔla la nam, ale be mayi egbɔ aɖabia nu.” Dɔlawo gblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋɔliyɔla aɖe le Endor.”
Kenaka Sauli anawuza nduna zake kuti, “Mundipezere mkazi amene amawombeza mawula kuti ndipite ndikafunse kwa iye.” Nduna zakezo zinamuyankha kuti, “Alipo mkazi woyankhula ndi mizimu ya anthu akufa ku Endori.”
8 Ale Saul trɔ eƒe nɔnɔme hedo awu dzodzro aɖe le eƒe fiawu teƒe. Eyi ɖe ŋɔliyɔla la ƒe aƒe me le zã me kple eƒe subɔla eve. Saul gblɔ na ŋɔliyɔla la be, “Bia gbe gbɔgbɔ aɖe nam eye nàyɔ ame si ŋkɔ mayɔ na wò la nam.”
Kotero Sauli anadzizimbayitsa navala zovala zachilendo. Tsono iye pamodzi ndi anthu awiri anapita nakafika kwa mkazi uja usiku, ndipo anamupempha kuti, “Chonde ndifunsireni nzeru kwa mizimu ya anthu akufa. Koma makamaka munditulutsire mzimu wa amene ndimutchule.”
9 Gake nyɔnu la gblɔ nɛ be, “Le nyateƒe me ènya nu si Saul wɔ. Eɖe afakalawo kple ŋɔliyɔlawo ɖa le anyigba la dzi. Nu ka ŋutie nètre mɔ na nye agbe be yeahe ku vɛ nam?”
Koma mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Ndithu inu mukudziwa chimene Sauli anachita. Paja iye anachotsa mʼdziko muno anthu onse owombeza ndi woyankhula ndi mizimu ya anthu akufa. Chifukwa chiyani mukutchera moyo wanga msampha kuti ndiphedwe?”
10 Saul tsɔ Yehowa ka atam nɛ be, “Meta Yehowa ƒe agbe be womahe to na wò ɖe nu sia ta o.”
Koma Sauli analonjeza mkaziyo molumbira nati, “Pali Yehova wamoyo, iweyo sudzalangidwa chifukwa cha zimenezi.”
11 Nyɔnu la biae be, “Ame kae nèdi be mayɔ na ye?” Saul do eŋu be, “Yɔ Samuel nam.”
Kenaka mkaziyo anafunsa, “Ndikuyitanireni yani?” Iye anati, “Undiyitanire Samueli.”
12 Esi nyɔnu la kpɔ Samuel la, edo ɣli sesĩe eye wògblɔ na Saul be, “Nu ka ŋutie nèblem ɖo? Wòe nye Saul!”
Pamene mkaziyo anaona Samueli anakuwa kwambiri, nawuza Sauli kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani inu mwandipusitsa? Inu ndinu Sauli!”
13 Fia Saul gblɔ nɛ be, “Mègana dzidzi naƒo wò o! Nu ka nèkpɔ?” Ŋɔliyɔla la ɖo eŋu be, “Mekpɔ gbɔgbɔ aɖe wòle dodom tso tome gbɔna.”
Mfumuyo inamuwuza kuti, “Usaope. Kodi ukuona chiyani?” Mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Ndikuona mzimu ukutuluka pansi.”
14 Saul bia be, “Aleke eƒe dzedzeme le?” Nyɔnu la ɖo eŋu be, “Ame si gbɔna la nye amegãɖeɖi si do awu ʋlaya.” Tete Saul dze sii be Samuel ye eye wodze klo tsyɔ mo anyi.
Sauli anafunsa, “Kodi mzimuwo ukuoneka motani?” Mkaziyo anayankha kuti, “Amene akutuluka ndi munthu wokalamba ndipo wavala mkanjo.” Apo Sauli anadziwa kuti anali Samueli ndipo anawerama nagunditsa nkhope yake pansi.
15 Samuel bia Saul be, “Nu ka ta nèɖe fu nam heyɔm vɛ?” Saul ɖo eŋu be, “Elabena meɖo xaxa gã aɖe me. Filistitɔwo gaho aʋa ɖe mía ŋu, ke Mawu gblẽm ɖi eye meɖo nya aɖeke ŋu to nyagblɔɖilawo dzi loo alo to drɔ̃ekuku me o. Eya ta meva yɔ wò be nàgblɔ nu si mawɔ la nam.”
Samueli anafunsa Sauli kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani wandivutitsa pondiyitana kuti ndibwere kuno?” Sauli anayankha kuti, “Ine ndavutika kwambiri mʼmaloto. Afilisti akumenyana nane, ndipo Mulungu wandifulatira. Iye sakundiyankhulanso, ngakhale kudzera mwa aneneri kapena maloto. Choncho ndakuyitanani kuti mundiwuze zoti ndichite.”
16 Samuel ɖo eŋu be, “Nu ka ta nàbiam esi Yehowa gblẽ wò ɖi eye wòzu wò futɔ?
Samueli anati, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukundifunsa ine, pakuti tsopano Yehova wakufulatira ndipo wasanduka mdani wako?
17 Yehowa wɔ nya si wògblɔ ɖi to dzinye la dzi. Yehowa vuvu fiaɖuƒe la le asiwò me eye wòtsɔe na hawòviwo dometɔ ɖeka, David.
Yehova wakuchita zimene ananeneratu kudzera mwa ine. Yehova wachotsa ufumu mʼmanja mwako ndipo waupereka kwa mnansi wako, kwa Davide.
18 Esiawo katã va dziwò elabena mèwɔ Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi esi wòdo dɔmedzoe kaɖikaɖi ɖe Amalekitɔwo ŋu o.
Yehova wachita zimenezi lero chifukwa sunamvere mawu ake ndipo sunawawonongeretu Aamaleki.
19 Yehowa atsɔ wò kple Israel blibo la ade asi na Filistitɔwo eye etsɔ la wò kple viwò ŋutsuwo miava nɔ gbɔnye le afii. Yehowa atsɔ Israel ƒe aʋakɔ la hã ade asi na Filistitɔwo.”
Yehova adzapereka ndithu iweyo pamodzi ndi Aisraeli kwa Afilisti. Ndipo mmawa iweyo ndi ana ako mudzakhala ndi ine kuno. Ndithu Yehova adzapereka gulu lankhondo la Aisraeli kwa Afilisti.”
20 Saul mlɔ anyigba hedra ɖe anyigba azɔ, ʋaʋã meganɔ eŋu o, le Samuel ƒe nyawo ta. Dɔwuame hã na ŋusẽ vɔ le eŋu elabena meɖu naneke ŋkeke blibo la o.
Nthawi yomweyo Sauli anagwa pansi atadzazidwa ndi mantha chifukwa cha mawu a Samueli. Analibenso mphamvu, pakuti sanadye tsiku lonse.
21 Esi ŋɔliyɔla la kpɔ ale si vɔvɔ̃ ɖoe la egblɔ be, “Amegã, metsɔ nye agbe ke eye mewɔ wò ɖoɖo dzi.
Mkazi uja tsono anasendera kufupi ndi Sauli, ndipo ataona kuti Sauli akuchita mantha, anamuwuza kuti, “Taonani, mdzakazi wanune ndakumverani. Ndayika moyo wanga pa chiswe ndipo ndamvera zimene munandiwuza.
22 Azɔ la, nu si magblɔe nye be nàna mana nane wò nàɖu, ale be ŋusẽ naɖo ŋuwò hena wò mɔzɔzɔ yi wò nɔƒe.”
Tsono inunso mumvere mawu a mdzakazi wanune. Mundilole kuti ndikupatseni ka buledi pangʼono kuti mukhale ndi mphamvu zoyendera pa ulendo wanu.”
23 Ke Saul be, “Nyemaɖu o.” Eŋumewo ɖe kuku nɛ kpe ɖe ŋɔliyɔla la ŋu va se ɖe esime wòlɔ̃. Efɔ azɔ eye wònɔ abati dzi.
Iye anakana ndipo anati, “Ayi, ine sindidya.” Koma nduna zake pamodzi ndi mkaziyo anamuwumiriza, ndipo anawamvera. Choncho anadzuka pansi nakhala pa bedi.
24 Nyivi dami aɖe nɔ nyɔnu la si, eɖe abla wui, tsɔ amɔ maʋamaʋã wɔ abolo
Mkaziyo anali ndi mwana wangʼombe wonenepa ndipo anamupha mwachangu. Anatenga ufa nawukanyanga ndipo anaphika buledi wopanda yisiti.
25 eye wòtsɔ nuɖuɖu la vɛ na fia la kple eŋumewo woɖu eye wodzo le zã la me.
Tsono anapereka bulediyo kwa Sauli ndi nduna zake ndipo anadya. Pambuyo pake ananyamuka kupita kwawo usiku womwewo.
