< Samuel 1 7 >

1 Ale Kiriat Yearimtɔwo va tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la yi ɖada ɖe Abinadab ƒe aƒe si le to dzi la me. Wokɔ via, Eleazar, ŋuti be wòakpɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la dzi.
Awo abantu b’e Kiriyasuyalimu ne bajja ne baddukira essanduuko ya Mukama, ne bagitwala mu nnyumba ya Abinadaabu ku lusozi. Ne bayawula Eriyazaali mutabani we okuvunaanyizibwa essanduuko ya Mukama.
2 Nubablaɖaka la nɔ Kiriat Yearim ƒe blaeve. Israelviwo xa nu to ƒe siawo me elabena edze na wo abe ɖe Yehowa gblẽ wo ɖi ene.
Essanduuko n’emala mu Kiriyasuyalimu ebbanga ddene, eryawerera ddala emyaka amakumi abiri, era abantu b’ennyumba ya Isirayiri bonna baali banakuwavu era nga banoonya Mukama.
3 Samuel gblɔ na Israel ƒe aƒe blibo la be, “Ne mieɖo ta me kplikpaa be yewoatrɔ ayi Yehowa gbɔ la, ekema miɖe asi le miaƒe dzromawuwo kple Astarɔtwo ŋu. Miɖo ta me kplikpaa azɔ be miaɖo to Yehowa ɖeɖe ko ekema aɖe mi tso Filistitɔwo si me.”
Awo Samwiri n’agamba ennyumba ya Isirayiri yonna nti, “Obanga mudda eri Mukama n’omutima gumu, muggyeewo bakatonda abagwira ne Baasutoleesi, mmweweeyo eri Mukama gwe muba muweerezanga yekka, era anaabalokola okuva mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti.”
4 Ale woɖe asi le Baal kple Astarɔtwo ŋuti eye wosubɔ Yehowa ɖeɖe ko.
Awo Abayisirayiri ne bava ku Babaali ne Baasutoleesi, ne baweerezanga Mukama yekka.
5 Samuel gblɔ na wo be, “Mi katã miva Mizpa eye mado gbe ɖa na Yehowa ɖe mia ta.”
Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Mukuŋŋaanye Isirayiri yenna e Mizupa, mbegayiririre eri Mukama.”
6 Wova kpe ta ɖe Mizpa, woku tsi tso vudo aɖe me kɔ ɖe anyigba le Yehowa ŋkume eye wotsi nu dɔ ŋkeke blibo ɖeka abe nuxaxa ɖe woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta ene. Ale Samuel zu Israel ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃la le Mizpa.
Bwe baali bakuŋŋaanidde e Mizupa, ne basena amazzi, ne bagayirira mu maaso ga Mukama, ne basiiba era ne baatula ebibi byabwe nga boogera nti, “Twonoonye eri Mukama.” Olwo Samwiri nga ye mukulembeze era omulamuzi wa Isirayiri e Mizupa.
7 Esi Filistitɔwo ƒe amegãwo se nya tso takpekpe gã si wowɔ le Mizpa ŋu la, woƒo woƒe aʋawɔlawo nu ƒu eye wolũ ɖe Israelviwo dzi. Vɔvɔ̃ ɖo Israelviwo ŋutɔ esi wose be Filistitɔwo gogo yewo.
Awo Abafirisuuti bwe baawulira nga Abayisirayiri bakuŋŋaanidde e Mizupa, abafuzi b’Abafirisuuti ne babalumba. Abayisirayiri bwe baakiwulira ne batya Abafirisuuti.
8 Wogblɔ na Samuel be, “Mègadzudzɔ kokoƒoƒo na Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ɖe mía ta o, ale be wòaɖe mí tso Filistitɔwo ƒe asi me.”
Ne bagamba Samwiri nti, “Tolekeraawo kutukaabiririra eri Mukama Katonda waffe, atulokole okuva mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti.”
9 Ale Samuel tsɔ alẽvi aɖe sa numevɔ na Yehowa eye wòɖe kuku nɛ be wòave Israel nu. Edo ɣli na Yehowa ɖe Israel nu eye Yehowa se eƒe gbedodoɖa.
Awo Samwiri n’addira omwana gw’endiga oguyonka n’aguwaayo ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa eri Mukama, n’akaabirira Mukama ku lwa Isirayiri, Mukama n’amuddamu.
10 Esi Samuel nɔ numevɔ sam ko la, Filistitɔwo ƒo ɖe Israelviwo dzi bibibi hena aʋawɔwɔ. Ke Yehowa ɖe gbe kple dziɖegbe ƒe gbe ɖe Filistitɔwo dzi, ŋɔdzi lé wo eye wotɔtɔ. Israelviwo dze wo dzi, fiti wo.
Ku lunaku olwo Samwiri bwe yali ng’awaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa eri Mukama, Abafirisuuti ne basembera okulwanyisa Isirayiri, naye Mukama n’abwatuka okubwatuka okw’amaanyi, Abafirisuuti ne batya nnyo, era ne badduka Abayisirayiri.
11 Israel ŋutsuwo do go tso Mizpa heti Filistitɔwo yome kple du eye wonɔ wo wum le mɔ dzi va se ɖe Bet Kar ƒe anyigbe ke.
Abasajja Abayisirayiri ne bava e Mizupa ne bagoba Abafirisuuti, ne bagenda nga babatta okutuukira ddala ku Besukali.
12 Samuel tsɔ kpe aɖe da ɖe Mizpa kple Sen dome eye wòna ŋkɔe be, “Ebenezer” si gɔme nye “Amenuvekpe” elabena egblɔ be, “Afi siae Yehowa ve mía nu va se ɖo!”
Awo Samwiri n’addira ejjinja n’aliteeka wakati wa Mizupa ne Seni, ekifo ekyo n’akituuma Ebenezeri, ng’agamba nti, “Mukama atuyambye okutuusa kaakano.”
13 Ale wobɔbɔ Filistitɔwo ɖe anyi eye womegaho aʋa ɖe Israelviwo ŋu kpɔ o elabena Yehowa tsi tsitre ɖe wo ŋu le Samuel ƒe agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo katã me.
Abafirisuuti ne bawangulwa, ne bataddayo nate kulumba Isirayiri. Era ennaku zonna eza Samwiri, omukono gwa Mukama ne gunyigiriza Abafirisuuti.
14 Israelviwo gbugbɔ woƒe du siwo nɔ Ekron kple Gat dome eye wonɔ Filistitɔwo si me la xɔ. Israel ɖe nuto siwo ƒo xlã wo la hã tso Filistitɔwo ƒe asi me. Ale ŋutifafa nɔ Israel kple Amoritɔwo dome.
Abayisirayiri ne beddiza ebibuga byonna Abafirisuuti bye baali babawambyeko okuva mu Ekulooni okutuuka e Gaasi, ate era Isirayiri n’anunula ebitundu ebyali biriraanyeewo okuva mu buyinza bw’Abafirisuuti. Ne waba okutabagana wakati wa Isirayiri n’Abamoli.
15 Samuel yi eƒe dɔ dzi abe Israel ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃la ene le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.
Samwiri n’alamula era n’afuga Isirayiri ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe.
16 Etsana ƒe sia ƒe drɔ̃a ʋɔnu gbã le Betel, emegbe le Gilgal eye le eya yome la, le Mizpa. Ale wòdrɔ̃a ʋɔnu na Israel le teƒe siawo katã.
Buli mwaka n’agendanga e Beseri, n’e Girugaali n’e Mizupa mu mpalo ng’alamula Isirayiri mu bifo ebyo byonna.
17 Egatrɔna vaa Rama elabena afi mae nye eƒe nɔƒe eye wògadrɔ̃a ʋɔnu le afi sia hã. Eɖi vɔsamlekpui na Yehowa ɖe Rama.
N’oluvannyuma yakomangawo e Laama, amaka ge gye gaabeeranga, nayo n’alamulirayo Isirayiri. N’azimbirayo Mukama ekyoto.
