1 Samuel 10
1 Mgbe ahụ, Samuel weere karama mmanụ wụkwasị ya nʼisi, sutukwa ya ọnụ nʼagba sị ya, “Ọ bụ na Onyenwe anyị etebeghị gị mmanụ ime gị onyendu ihe nketa ya?
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Samuela ʻae hina lolo, ʻo lingi ia ki hono fofonga, pea ʻuma kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻIkai ko e meʻa ʻi he fakatapui koe ʻe Sihova ke ke ʻeiki koe ki hono tofiʻa?
2 Mgbe ị ga-ahapụ m nʼebe a, ị ga-ahụ ndị ikom abụọ nʼakụkụ ili Rechel na Zelza, nʼala Benjamin, ha ga-agwa gị, ‘A chọtala ịnyịnya ibu ndị ahụ furu efu, ugbu a, nna gị akwụsịla iche ihe gbasara ịnyịnya ibu ya, ma ọ nọkwa na-echegbu onwe ya nʼihi gị, ọ na-ajụ, “Olee ihe m ga-eme banyere ọkpara m?”’
ʻI hoʻo ʻalu ʻiate au he ʻaho ni, te ke toki ʻilo ʻae ongo tangata ofi ki he tanuʻanga ʻo Lesieli ʻi he potu ʻo Penisimani ʻi Selisa; pea te na pehē kiate koe, Ko e fanga ʻasi ne ke ʻalu ko hono kumi kuo ʻilo: pea ko eni kuo tuku ʻe hoʻo tamai ʻene tokanga ki he fanga ʻasi, ka ʻoku mamahi kiate koe, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā te u fai koeʻuhi ko hoku foha?
3 “Mgbe i ruru nʼosisi ukwu Taboa, ị ga-ezute ndị ikom atọ ndị na-aga ife Chineke ofufe na Betel. Otu nʼime ha ga-ebu ụmụ ewu atọ, nke ọzọ ga-eji ogbe achịcha atọ, ma nke atọ ga-eji otu karama mmanya.
Pea ke ʻalu ai pe mei ai, pea ke hoko ki he tafangafanga ʻo Tepoa, pea ʻe fakafetaulaki kiate koe ʻi ai ʻae tangata ʻe toko tolu ko ʻenau ʻalu ki he ʻOtua ʻi Peteli, ʻoku fua ʻe he tokotaha ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi ʻe tolu, pea fua ʻe he tokotaha ʻae foʻi mā ʻe tolu, pea toʻo ʻe he tokotaha ʻae hina uaine:
4 Ha ga-ajụ gị banyere ọdịmma gị, nyekwa gị ogbe achịcha abụọ, nke ị ga-anara site nʼaka ha.
Pea tenau fetapa kiate koe, ʻo tuku kiate koe ʻae foʻi mā ʻe ua; ʻaia te ke maʻu mei honau nima.
5 “Emesịa, ị ga-aga Gibea nke Chineke, ebe ndị agha ndị Filistia mara ụlọ ikwu nche. Mgbe ị na-abata obodo ahụ, ị ga-ezute ndị amụma, ndị si nʼebe dị elu ahụ na-arịdata. Ha ga na-akpọ une, na egwu otiti, na ọja, na ụbọ akwara. Ha ga na-ebukwa amụma.
Hili ia, te ke hoko atu ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu ʻi ai ʻae kolo tau ʻae kau Filisitia: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi hoʻo hoko atu ki he kolo, te mo fetaulaki mo e kau kikite ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he potu māʻolunga mo e meʻa faiva tatangi, mo e fangufangu, mo e haʻape, ʻi honau ʻao pea tenau kikite.
6 Nʼoge ahụ, mmụọ Onyenwe anyị ga-abịakwasị gị, ị ga-esorokwa ha buo amụma. Ị ga-abụkwa onye a gbanwere, onye dị iche.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kiate koe, pea te ke kikite koe mo kinautolu, pea ke liliu koe ko e tangata foʻou.
7 Mgbe ihe ịrịbama ndị a mezuru ị ga na-eme ihe ọbụla i chepụtara nʼobi gị, nʼihi na Chineke nọnyeere gị.
Pea tuku ke pehē, ʻoka hoko ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ni kiate koe, te ke fai ʻe koe ʻaia ʻe matamatalelei ʻi ho ʻao; he ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua.
8 “Ị ga-aga Gilgal chere m nʼebe ahụ abalị asaa, nʼihi na ana m abịa ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo. Aga m agwa gị ihe ị ga-eme mgbe m bịara.”
Pea te ke ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻiate au ki Kilikali; pea vakai, te u ʻalu hifo kiate koe ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, pea ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei: te ke tatali kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ke ʻoua ke u hoko atu kiate koe, pea fakahā kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai.”
9 Mgbe ọ na-atụgharị ka ọ si ebe Samuel nọ pụọ, Chineke gbanwere ya, nye ya obi ọhụrụ, ihe ịrịbama ndị ahụ mezukwara nʼụbọchị ahụ.
Pea naʻe pehē, hili ʻene tafoki hono tuʻa ke ʻalu ʻia Samuela, naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia ʻae loto foʻou: pea naʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ni kotoa pē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia.
10 Mgbe ya na onye na-ejere ya ozi rutere Gibea, ndị amụma nọ nʼahịrị zutere ha. Mmụọ nke Chineke bịakwasịrị ya nʼebe ọ dị ukwu, o sooro ha malite ibu amụma.
Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki ai ki he moʻunga, vakai, ʻoku fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae kau kikite; pea naʻe hoko kiate ia ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, pea kikite ia mo kinautolu.
11 Mgbe ndị niile maara Sọl hụrụ ya ka o so ndị a na-ebu amụma, ha jụrụ onwe ha ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị mere nwa Kish? Sọl, ọ ghọọla otu nʼime ndị amụma?”
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he mamata ʻekinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ia ʻi muʻa, pea vakai, ʻoku kikite ia mo e kau kikite, naʻe fepehēʻaki ʻe he kakai, “Ko e hā eni kuo hoko ki he foha ʻo Kisi? ʻOku kau ʻa Saula foki ki he kau palōfita?”
12 Otu nʼime ndị bi nʼebe ahụ jụrụ sị, “Onye ka nna ha bụ?” Nke a bụ mmalite okwu ahụ a na-ekwu sị, “Sọl ọ ghọọla otu nʼime ndị amụma?”
Pea naʻe tali leva ʻe he tokotaha ʻoe potu ko ia, ʻo pehē, “Ka ko hai ʻenau tamai? Ko ia naʻe hoko ia ko e lea fakaefonua, ʻOku ʻi he kau palōfita ʻa Saula foki?
13 Mgbe Sọl buchara amụma, ọ rigooro gaa nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ dị nʼelu ugwu.
Pea ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻene kikite, naʻe haʻu ia ki he potu māʻolunga.
14 Mgbe nwanne nna ya hụrụ Sọl, ọ jụrụ ya ajụjụ sị, “Olee ebe ị gara?” Sọl zara ya sị, “Anyị gara ịchọ ịnyịnya ibu ndị ahụ furu efu, ma anyị achọtaghị ha, nʼihi ya anyị gara nʼebe onye amụma a na-akpọ Samuel ịjụta ase ebe ha nọ.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻasina ʻo Saula kiate ia mo ʻene tamaioʻeiki, “Ne mo ō ki fē?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ke kumi ʻae fanga ʻasi: pea ʻi heʻema vakai ʻoku ʻikai ia, ne ma hoko atu kia Samuela.”
15 Ma nwanne nna Sọl sịrị, “Gwa m ihe Samuel gwara gị.”
Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻasina ʻo Saula, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tala mai ʻaia naʻe tala ʻe Samuela kiate kimoua.”
16 Sọl zara ya sị, “Ọ gwara anyị na a chọtala ịnyịnya ibu ndị ahụ.” Ma okwu gbasara alaeze, dịka Samuel siri kwuo ya, ọ gwaghị ya ihe ọbụla.
Pea pehē ʻe Saula ki hono tuʻasina, naʻa ne tala totonu kiate kimaua kuo ʻiloa ʻae fanga ʻasi. Ka ko e meʻa ʻi he puleʻanga ʻaia naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Samuela, naʻe ʻikai te ne tala ia.
17 Emesịa, Samuel kpọrọ nzukọ ndị Izrel niile na Mizpa, ka ha bịa zute Onyenwe anyị.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Samuela ke kātoa fakataha ʻae kakai kia Sihova ki Misipa;
18 Ọ gwara ha sị, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel kwuru, ‘Mụ onwe m si nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta Izrel ma napụtakwa unu site nʼaka ike ndị Ijipt, na site nʼaka alaeze niile bụ ndị kpagburu unu.’
ʻO ne pehē ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Ne u ʻomi ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite, pea fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he nima ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he nima ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, mo kinautolu naʻe fakamoʻulaloaʻi ʻakimoutolu:
19 Ma ugbu a, unu ajụla Chineke unu onye na-azọpụta unu site nʼihe ndakwasị na nhụju anya unu niile. Unu kwukwara sị, ‘Mba, nye anyị eze ga-achị anyị.’ Ugbu a, doonụ onwe unu nʼusoro nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka ebo unu na ikwu unu niile si dị.”
Pea kuo mou liʻaki he ʻaho ni ʻa homou ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakamoʻui tonu ʻakimoutolu mei hoʻomou ngaahi kovi kotoa pē, mo hoʻomou ngaahi meʻa fakamamahi kotoa pē; pea kuo mou tala kiate ia, ʻIkai, ka ke fakanofo ha tuʻi kiate kimautolu. Pea ko eni fakakātoa ʻo fakahā ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi homou ngaahi faʻahinga, pea ʻi homou ngaahi toko afe.’”
20 Samuel mere ka ebo Izrel niile bịaruo nso nʼebo nʼebo, nza mara ebo Benjamin.
Pea ʻi he fakakātoa fakataha ʻe Samuela ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli kenau haʻu ʻo ofi, pea naʻe fili ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Penisimani.
21 O mere ka ebo Benjamin bịaruo nso nʼagbụrụ nʼagbụrụ, nza mara agbụrụ Matri. Nʼikpeazụ nza ahụ mara Sọl, nwa Kish. Ha chọgharịrị ya ma ha ahụghị ya.
Pea ʻi heʻene fekau ke haʻu ʻo ofi ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Penisimani ʻi honau ngaahi fale, naʻe fili ʻae fale ʻo Matili, pea fili ʻa Saula ko e foha ʻo Kisi: pea ʻi heʻenau kumi ia, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa ia.
22 Ha jụrụ Onyenwe anyị ase ọzọ, “Nwoke ahụ ọ bịala nʼebe a?” Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “E, Lee, o zoro onwe ya nʼetiti akpa ndị ahụ.”
Ko ia naʻa nau toe fehuʻi ai kia Sihova, pe haʻu ki ai ʻae tangata pe ʻikai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, kuo fakafufū ʻe ia ia ʻi he tuʻunga ngaʻotoʻota.”
23 Ha gbaara gaa nʼebe ahụ kpọpụta ya. Mgbe ọ pụtara guzoro nʼetiti ha, ha hụrụ na o toro ogologo karịa onye ọbụla site nʼubu ruo nʼisi.
Pea naʻa nau lele ʻo ʻomi ia mei ai: pea ʻi heʻene tuʻu mo e kakai, naʻe māʻolunga ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē mei hono uma ʻo fai ki ʻolunga.
24 Samuel gwara ndị ahụ niile okwu sị, “Onye a bụ nwoke ahụ Onyenwe anyị họpụtara ka ọ bụrụ eze unu. Ọ dịghị onye ọzọ dịka ya nʼIzrel!” Mgbe ahụ, mmadụ niile tiri mkpu sị, “Ka eze dị ogologo ndụ gaa nʼihu!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Mou vakai kiate ia ʻaia kuo fili ʻe Sihova, ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku hangē ko ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē!” Pea naʻe kalanga ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Ke fakamoʻui ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae tuʻi.”
25 Ọzọkwa, Samuel gwara ndị Izrel ihe bụ ọrụ eze, na ihe ruuru ya. O dekwara ihe ndị a nʼakwụkwọ, debe akwụkwọ ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Emesịa, Samuel mechiri nzukọ ahụ. Onye ọbụla laghachikwara nʼụlọ ya.
Pea naʻe toki tala ʻe Samuela ki he kakai hono anga ʻoe puleʻanga, ʻo ne tohi ia ʻi he tohi, ʻo tuku ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Samuela ki he kakai kotoa pē kenau ʻalu taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono fale.
26 Mgbe Sọl laghachiri nʼobodo ya, bụ Gibea, ndị ikom ndị Chineke metụrụ aka nʼobi sooro ya.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Saula ki hono ʻapi ʻi Kipea; pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau tangata, naʻe laveʻi honau loto ʻe he ʻOtua.
27 Ma ụfọdụ ndị efulefu jọgburu onwe ha kwuru sị, “Olee otu nwoke a ga-esi zọpụta anyị?” Ha lelịrị ya anya, jụkwa iwetara ya onyinye ịnata ihuọma. Ma Sọl gbachitere ha nkịtị.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻae angakovi, “ʻE fakamoʻui fēfē ʻe he tangata ni ʻakitautolu?” Pea naʻa nau manukiʻi ia, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻomi ha meʻaʻofa kiate ia. Ka naʻe longo pe ia.
