15 Samũeli akĩũria Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ũũthĩĩnie, ũkandehithia gũkũ?” Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ mũnyamarĩku mũno. Afilisti nĩmararũa na niĩ, na Ngai nĩanjehereire, akaaga kũnjookeria ũhoro na njĩra ya anabii, kana ya irooto. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndagwĩta ũnjĩĩre ũrĩa ngwĩka.”

16 Samũeli akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũgũkĩnjũũria nĩkĩ, kuona atĩ rĩu Jehova nĩakwehereire na agatuĩka thũ yaku?
Na Samuel buaa sɛ, “Sɛ Awurade agya wo, abɛyɛ wo ɔtamfoɔ a, adɛn enti na worebisa me?
17 Jehova nĩekĩte o ta ũrĩa oigire na kanua gakwa. Jehova nĩagũtunyĩte ũthamaki uume moko-inĩ maku, na akaũnengera mũndũ wa itũũra rĩaku, nĩwe Daudi.
Awurade ayɛ deɛ ɔkaa sɛ ɔbɛyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Wagye ahennie no afiri wo nsam de ama Dawid a ɔne wo resi akan.
18 Nĩ ũndũ wee ndwathĩkĩire Jehova, kana ũgĩkinyĩria Amaleki mangʼũrĩ make mahiũ, nĩkĩo Jehova agwĩkĩte ũguo ũmũthĩ.

19 Jehova nĩegũkũneana, wee hamwe na Isiraeli, kũrĩ Afilisti, na rũciũ wee na ariũ aku mũgaakorwo mũrĩ hamwe na niĩ. Jehova nĩagacooka aneane mbũtũ cia ita cia Isiraeli kũrĩ Afilisti.”
Deɛ ɛka ho ne sɛ, ɔkyena, Awurade de wo ne Israel asraafodɔm nyinaa bɛma Filistifoɔ, na wo ne wo mma abɛka me ho wɔ ha. Awurade bɛma Israel akodɔm no nyinaa adi nkoguo.”
20 O hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩgũa, agĩĩtambũrũkia thĩ aiyũrĩtwo nĩ guoya nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro ũcio wa Samũeli. Hinya wake ũgĩthira, tondũ ndaarĩĩte kĩndũ mũthenya ũcio wothe o na ũtukũ.

21 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio okire kũrĩ Saũlũ na akĩona ũrĩa aamakĩte, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, ndungata yaku ya mũndũ-wa-nja nĩĩgwathĩkĩire. Ndatwarĩrĩria muoyo wakwa ũgwati-inĩ, ndeeka ũrĩa ũnjĩĩrire njĩke.
Ɔbaa no hunuu adwenem haw a ɔwɔ mu no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Owura, mede me nkwa too hɔ, yɛɛ wʼabisadeɛ.
