1 Samuel, ɖevi sue la, nɔ Yehowa subɔm to kpekpe ɖe Eli ŋu me. Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, ƒãa hafi Yehowa naƒo nu na amegbetɔ eye ŋutegakpɔkpɔ hã mebɔ o.
Umfana uSamuweli wayesebenzela iNkosi phambi kukaEli. Lelizwi leNkosi laliligugu ngalezonsuku; kwakungekho lombono osabaleleyo.
2 Fifia, Eli zu amegãɖeɖi eye eƒe ŋkuwo megakpɔa nu tututu o. Emlɔ eƒe xɔ me le zã me gbe ɖeka eye
Kwasekusithi ngalolosuku uEli elele endaweni yakhe, lamehlo akhe eseqala ukufiphala engelakubona,
3 Samuel hã mlɔ gbedoxɔ la me le afi si nubablaɖaka la nɔ. Ke esi wòsusɔ vie woatsi xɔmekaɖiwo la,
lesibane sikaNkulunkulu sasingakacitshwa, njalo uSamuweli wayelele ethempelini leNkosi, lapho okwakukhona umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu,
4 Yehowa yɔe be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel tɔ be, “Papaa!”
iNkosi yambiza uSamuweli, owathi: Khangela ngilapha.
5 Efɔ eye wòƒu du yi Eli gbɔ hegblɔ be, “Nyee nye esi, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Eli gblɔ nɛ be, “Vinye, nyemeyɔ wò o, yi ɖamlɔ anyi.” Ale wòtrɔ yi ɖamlɔ anyi.
Wasegijimela kuEli, wathi: Khangela ngilapha, ngoba ungibizile. Wasesithi: Kangibizanga, buyela ulale. Wasesiyalala.
6 Yehowa gayɔe ake be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel gafɔ eye wògaƒu du yi Eli gbɔ. Egagblɔ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Eli gblɔ be, “Vinye, nyemeyɔ wò o, yi nàmlɔ anyi.”
INkosi yasibuya imbiza uSamuweli futhi. USamuweli wasevuka waya kuEli, wathi: Khangela ngilapha, ngoba ungibizile. Kodwa wathi: Kangibizanga, ndodana yami; buyela ulale.
7 Samuel medze si Yehowa haɖe o eye Yehowa meƒo nu nɛ kpɔ haɖe hã o.
Kodwa uSamuweli wayengakayazi iNkosi, lelizwi leNkosi lalingakembulwa kuye.
8 Yehowa gayɔ Samuel zi etɔ̃lia. Samuel gaƒu du yi Eli gbɔ eye wògagblɔ nɛ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Azɔ Eli dze sii be Yehowae nɔ nu ƒom na ɖevia
INkosi yasimbiza futhi uSamuweli ngokwesithathu. Wasevuka waya kuEli wathi: Khangela ngilapha, ngoba ungibizile. UEli waseqedisisa ukuthi iNkosi imbizile umfana.
9 eya ta wògblɔ na Samuel be, “Gayi ɖamlɔ anyi; ne egayɔ wò la, nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Yehowa ƒo nu, wò dɔla le to ɖom.’” Samuel gayi ɖamlɔ anyi.
Ngakho uEli wathi kuSamuweli: Hamba uyelala; kuzakuthi-ke nxa ikubiza uzakuthi: Khuluma Nkosi, ngoba inceku yakho iyezwa. Wasehamba uSamuweli, walala endaweni yakhe.
10 Yehowa gayɔe abe tsã ene be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel ɖo eŋu be, “Aƒetɔ, meɖe kuku, ƒo nu, wò dɔla le to ɖom.”
INkosi yasisiza, yema, yabiza njengakwezinye izikhathi: Samuweli, Samuweli! Wasesithi uSamuweli: Khuluma, ngoba inceku yakho iyezwa.
11 Yehowa gblɔ na Samuel be, “Mele nu dziŋɔ aɖe wɔ ge le Israel.
INkosi yasisithi kuSamuweli: Khangela, ngizakwenza into koIsrayeli ezakhenceza indlebe zombili zalowo wonke oyizwayo.
12 Mawɔ nu dziŋɔ siwo katã ŋu meƒo nu tsoe na Eli.
Ngalolosuku ngizakwenza ngimelene loEli konke engakukhuluma ngendlu yakhe; ngiqalise ngiqede.
13 Metsɔ tohehe do ŋgɔ na Eli kple eƒe ƒome blibo la elabena viawo le busunuwo wɔm ɖe Mawu ŋu eye Eli megbe na wo o.
Ngoba ngimtshelile ukuthi ngizagweba indlu yakhe kuze kube nininini ngesiphambeko asaziyo, ngoba amadodana akhe azenza aqalekiswa, kodwa kawakhuzanga.
14 Eya ta meka atam be vɔsawo kple nunanawo mate ŋu ana woatsɔ Eli kple viawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake akpɔ o.”
Ngakho-ke ngifungile kuyo indlu kaEli ukuthi ububi bendlu kaEli kabuyikuhlangulwa ngomhlatshelo langomnikelo kuze kube phakade.
15 Samuel nɔ anyimlɔƒe va se ɖe ŋdi. Eʋu gbedoxɔ la ƒe ʋɔtru abe ale si wòwɔna ɖaa ene, ke enɔ vɔvɔ̃m be yeagblɔ nya si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la na Eli.
USamuweli waselala kwaze kwasa; wavula iminyango yendlu yeNkosi, kodwa uSamuweli wesaba ukumtshela uEli umbono.
16 Ke Eli yɔe be, “Vinye Samuel.” Samuel ɖo eŋu be, “Nyee nye esi.”
UEli wasembiza uSamuweli, wathi: Samuweli, ndodana yami. Wasesithi: Khangela ngilapha.
17 Eli biae be, “Nya kae Yehowa gblɔ na wò? Gblɔ nya sia nya nam; Mawu nehe to na wò vevie ne ètsɔ nya aɖe ɣlam!”
Wasesithi: Yinto bani eyikhulume kuwe? Ake ungangifihleli; kenze njalo uNkulunkulu kuwe, ngokunjalo engezelele, uba ungifihlela ulutho lwazo zonke izinto akutshele zona.
18 Ale Samuel gblɔ nya sia nya si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la na Eli eye Eli ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe lɔlɔ̃nue; eya ŋutɔ nena nu si tututu wòkpɔ be eyae nye nyuitɔ la nava eme.”
Ngakho uSamuweli wasemtshela zonke izinto, kamfihlelanga lutho. Wasesithi: YiNkosi, kayenze lokho okulungileyo emehlweni ayo.
19 Esi Samuel nɔ tsitsim la, Yehowa nɔ kplii eye wòna be nya sia nya si Samuel gblɔ la vaa eme.
Wakhula-ke uSamuweli, leNkosi yayilaye, kayiyekelanga lelilodwa lamazwi ayo liwele emhlabathini.
20 Eya ta Israel blibo la, tso Dan yi Beerseba nya be Yehowa ɖo Samuel nyagblɔɖilae.
UIsrayeli wonke-ke kusukela koDani kuze kube seBherishebha wazi ukuthi uSamuweli uqinisiwe ukuthi abe ngumprofethi weNkosi.
21 Yehowa gaɖea eɖokui fiana le Silo. Eɖe eɖokui fia Samuel eye wòƒo nu nɛ le afi ma. Ne Samuel ƒo nu la, Israel blibo la ɖoa toe.
INkosi yaphinda yabonakala eShilo, ngoba iNkosi yazibonakalisa kuSamuweli eShilo ngelizwi leNkosi.
