1 Samũeli 8
1 Rĩrĩa Samũeli aakũrire, nĩathuurire ariũ ake matuĩke atiirĩrĩri bũrũri wa Isiraeli.
Samuel bɔɔ akwakoraa no, oyii ne mmabarima sɛ wɔnyɛ Israel atemmufo.
2 Mũriũ wake wa irigithathi eetagwo Joeli, nake wa keerĩ eetagwo Abija, nao maatungataga kũu Birishiba.
Nʼabakan no din de Yoel, na ne ba a ɔto so abien no din de Abiya. Na wɔyɛ atemmufo wɔ Beer-Seba.
3 No rĩrĩ, ariũ ake matiathiire na mĩthiĩre ta yake. Nĩmagarũrũkire makĩĩrirĩria ũtonga ũtarĩ wa ma, na makaamũkagĩra mahaki, na makoogomagia kĩhooto.
Nanso na ne mmabarima no nte sɛ wɔn agya. Wɔyɛɛ sikanibere, gyigyee adanmude, san buu ntɛnkyew.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio athuuri othe a Isiraeli makĩũngana, magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Samũeli o kũu Rama.
Enti Israel mpanyimfo nyinaa hyiaa Samuel wɔ Rama ne no bedii saa asɛm yi ho nkɔmmɔ.
5 Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ mũkũrũ, nao ariũ aku matirathiĩ na mĩthiĩre ta yaku; rĩu thuura mũthamaki atũtongoragie o ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe.”
Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Woabɔ akwakoraa, na wo mmabarima nso nnantew wʼakwan so; enti si ɔhene na onni yɛn anim sɛnea aman bebree yɛ no no.”
6 No rĩrĩa maamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Tũhe mũthamaki atũtongoragie.” Ũndũ ũcio ndwakenirie Samũeli; nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩhooya Jehova.
Wɔn abisade no anyɛ Samuel dɛ nti, ɔkɔɔ Awurade anim kobisaa akwankyerɛ.
7 Nake Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thikĩrĩria ũrĩa wothe andũ aya marakwĩra; tiwe mararega, no nĩ niĩ mararega nduĩke mũthamaki wao.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Tie nsɛm a ɔmanfo no reka kyerɛ wo no na yɛ. Ɛnyɛ wo na wɔapo, na mmom, me na wɔapo me, sɛ minnni wɔn so hene bio.
8 O ta ũrĩa matũire mekaga ũguo kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndamambatirie ngĩmaruta bũrũri wa Misiri nginya ũmũthĩ, makandiganĩria magatungatĩra ngai ingĩ, ũguo noguo maragwĩka.
Efi bere a miyii wɔn fii Misraim no besi nnɛ yi no, wɔakɔ so apo me akodi anyame afoforo akyi; na nnɛ yi, saa ara na wɔde reyɛ wo.
9 Na rĩrĩ, kĩmathikĩrĩrie; no ũmataare, ũtĩtĩrithie na ũreke mamenye ũrĩa mũthamaki ũcio ũkaamathamakagĩra ageekaga.”
Ɛno nti, tie wɔn, nanso bɔ wɔn kɔkɔ anibere so, na ma wonhu ɔkwan a ɔhene a ɔrebedi wɔn so no de wɔn bɛfa so.”
10 Nake Samũeli akĩĩra andũ acio maamwĩtagia mũthamaki ũhoro wothe wa Jehova.
Enti Samuel kaa Awurade kɔkɔbɔ no kyerɛɛ nnipa no.
11 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo mũthamaki ũrĩa ũkaamũthamakagĩra ageekaga: Nĩakoya ariũ anyu amatue a gũtungataga na ngaari ciake cia ita, na mbarathi, na mahanyũkage mbere ya ngaari ciake cia ita.
“Sɛɛ na ɔhene ne mo bɛtena. Ɔhene bɛtwe mo mmabarima na wama wɔde ne nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ asom, na wama wɔn atu mmirika adi ne nteaseɛnam anim.
12 Amwe ao nĩakamatua aathani a thigari ngiri, na aathani a thigari mĩrongo ĩtano, na arĩa angĩ marĩmage mĩgũnda yake na makamũgethera, o na angĩ mathondekage indo cia mbaara na cia ngaari ciake cia ita.
Ebinom bɛyɛ nʼakofo mpem ne aduonum so asahene, na ebinom nso ayɛ nkoa ma wɔafuntum nʼasase, na wɔatwa ne nnɔbae, na afoforo ayɛ nʼakode ne ne teaseɛnam ho nneɛma.
13 Nĩakoya airĩtu anyu amatue athondeki a indo iria inungaga wega, na arugi na athondeki a mĩgate.
Ɔhene no begye mo mmabea afi mo nsam, na wahyɛ wɔn ama wɔanoa nnuan, na wɔato nnuan, na wɔayɛ nnuhuam nso ama no.
14 Nĩakoyaga mĩgũnda yanyu, na mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ, na ya mĩtamaiyũ ĩrĩa mĩega mũno amĩhe ndungata ciake.
Obegye mo mfuw ne mo bobe mfuw ne mo ngo mfuw a eye no afi mo nsam, na ɔde ama ɔno ankasa nʼasomfo.
15 Nĩakoyaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa ngano yanyu na gĩa thabibũ cianyu akĩhe anene ake na ndungata ciake.
Obegye mo nnɔbae mu nkyɛmu du mu baako, na wakyekyɛ ama nʼadwumayɛfo ne nʼasomfo.
16 Ndungata cianyu cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na ngʼombe cianyu iria njega na ndigiri nĩagacioya ituĩke cia kũmũrutagĩra wĩra.
Ɔbɛpɛ sɛ obenya mo mfenaa ne nkoa, na wagye mo anantwi papa ne mo mfurum de wɔn ayɛ nʼadwuma.
17 Nĩakoyaga gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa mahiũ manyu, o na inyuĩ ene nĩ mũgaatuĩka ngombo ciake.
Obegye mo nguan mu nkyɛmu du mu baako na moayɛ nʼasomfo.
18 Mũthenya ũcio wakinya-rĩ, nĩmũgakaya nĩ ũndũ wa mũthamaki ũcio mwĩthuurĩire, nake Jehova ndarĩ ũndũ akaamũcookeria mũthenya ũcio.”
Sɛ da no du a, mobɛsrɛ ahomegye afi saa ɔhene a morepɛ no no nkyɛn, nanso Awurade remmoa mo.”
19 No andũ acio makĩrega gũthikĩrĩria Samũeli makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca! Ithuĩ tũkwenda mũthamaki wa gũtũthamakagĩra.
Nanso ɔmanfo no antie Samuel kɔkɔbɔ no. Asɛm a wɔkae ara ne se, “Yɛpɛ ɔhene.
20 Ningĩ tũtuĩke ta ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe, tũrĩ na mũthamaki wa gũtũtongoragia na wa gũthiiaga mbere iitũ na wa kũrũaga mbaara ciitũ.”
Yɛpɛ sɛ yɛyɛ sɛ aman a wɔatwa yɛn ho ahyia no. Yɛn hene bedi yɛn so, na wadi yɛn anim akɔ ɔko.”
21 Rĩrĩa Samũeli aiguire ũhoro ũrĩa wothe andũ acio moigire-rĩ, akĩũcookera mbere ya Jehova.
Enti Samuel kaa asɛm a nkurɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ no no kyerɛɛ Awurade,
22 Jehova akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maigue, ũmahe mũthamaki.” Nake Samũeli akĩĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “O mũndũ nĩacooke itũũra-inĩ rĩake.”
na Awurade buae se, “Yɛ nea wɔreka no ma wɔn, na ma wɔn ɔhene.” Afei, Samuel penee so, na ɔmaa obiara kɔɔ ne kurom.
