1 Samuel 11
1 Nʼoge ahụ, Nahash, eze ndị Amọn, duuru ndị agha ya bilie imegide ndị Izrel bi nʼala Jebesh Gilead. Ma ndị Jebesh rịọrọ ya sị, “Ka anyị na gị gbaa ndụ, anyị ga-anọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị gị.”
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻa Naʻasi ko e tangata ʻAmoni, pea ne te u tau ki Sepesi-Kiliati: pea pehē ʻe he kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, “Fai hoʻo fuakava mo kimautolu, pea te mau tauhi kiate koe.”
2 Ma Nahash, onye Amọn zara sị ha, “Mụ na unu ga-agba ndụ ma ọ bụrụ na unu ekwenye ka m ghụpụta anya aka nri nke onye ọbụla nʼime unu, si otu a wetara Izrel niile ihe nkọcha.”
Pea pehē ʻe Naʻasi ko e tangata ʻAmoni kiate kinautolu, “ʻI he meʻa ni pe te u fai ʻae fuakava mo kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke u kapeʻi homou mata toʻomataʻu kotoa pē ʻe tuku ia ko e meʻa manuki ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē.”
3 Ndị okenye obodo Jebesh zara sị, “Nye anyị abalị asaa ka anyị ziga ndị ozi nʼala Izrel niile. Ọ bụrụ na o nweghị onye kwere ịbịa zọpụta anyị, anyị ga-ewere onwe anyị nyefee gị nʼaka.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau mātuʻa ʻo Sepesi kiate ia, “Ke ke kātaki ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, koeʻuhi ke mau fekau ʻemau talafekau ki he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea pehē, kapau ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu, te mau ʻalu atu kiate koe.”
4 Mgbe ndị ozi ha zipụrụ bịaruru Gibea, nke bụ obodo Sọl, ha kọọrọ ndị mmadụ ihe ndị a, ha niile dapụrụ nʼakwa.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae kau talafekau ki Kipea ʻo Saula, pea fakahā ʻae ongoongo ki he telinga ʻoe kakai: pea naʻe hiki honau leʻo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo tangi.
5 Ma nʼoge a, Sọl si nʼubi na-alọta, soro ụmụ ehi ya nʼazụ, ọ jụrụ, “Ọ bụ gịnị na-eme onye ọbụla? Gịnị mere na ha ji ebe akwa?” Ha kọọrọ ya ihe banyere ozi e si Jebesh zite.
Pea vakai, naʻe muimui mai ʻa Saula ki he fanga manu, mei he ngoue; pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “Ko e hā ʻoku tangi ai ʻae kakai?” Pea naʻa nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae ongoongo ʻoe kau tangata ʻo Sepesi.
6 Mgbe Sọl nụrụ ozi a, Mmụọ nke Chineke bịakwasịrị ya nʼike, iwe wekwara ya nke ukwuu.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua kia Saula ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi ongoongo ni, pea tupu ai ʻene ʻita ʻo lahi.
7 Ọ kpụpụtara ehi abụọ bọkasịa ha, zipụ ndị ozi ka ha buru ha ga obodo niile dị nʼIzrel. Ozi ha ga-ezi ndị obodo ọbụla bụ nke a. “Ọ bụ ihe e mere ehi ndị a ka a ga-eme ehi onye ọbụla jụrụ iso Sọl na Samuel jee ọgụ.” Onyenwe anyị mere ka egwu jide ndị Izrel niile. Nʼihi ya, ha niile bịakwutere Sọl dịka otu mmadụ.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae fanga pulu ʻe ua, pea tuʻutuʻu ke iiki, pea fekau ke ʻave ʻo tufaki ki he ngaahi potu kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he nima ʻoe kau tangata fekau, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ʻo muimui ʻia Saula mo Samuela, ʻe fai pehē pe ki heʻene fanga pulu.” Pea naʻe tō ki he kakai ʻae manavahē kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau hiki loto taha pe kituaʻā.
8 Mgbe Sọl kpọkọtara ha na Bezek, ọnụọgụgụ ndị ikom Izrel dị narị puku atọ, tinyekwara iri puku mmadụ atọ, ndị sitere na Juda.
Pea ʻi heʻene lau ʻakinautolu ʻi Piseki, naʻe toko tolu kilu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli pea toko tolu mano ʻae fānau ʻa Siuta.
9 Ha gwara ndị zitere ozi ahụ okwu sị ha, “Zienụ ndị ikom Jebesh Gilead, ‘Echi, tupu anyanwụ achaa nʼuju ya, a ga-anapụta unu.’” Mgbe ndị ozi a gara zie ndị ikom Jebesh Gilead ozi a, ha ṅụrịrị ọṅụ nke ukwuu.
Pea naʻa nau pehē ki he kau talafekau naʻe haʻu, Ke mou lea pehē ki he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi-Kiliati, “Ko e ʻapongipongi, ʻo feʻunga mo e mafana ʻoe laʻā, te mou maʻu ʻae tokoni.” Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau tangata fekau ʻo fakahā ia ki he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi: pea naʻa nau fiefia ai.
10 Ndị ikom Jebesh ziri ozi gwa ndị Amọn sị ha, “Echi, anyị ga-enye unu onwe anyị, ka unu mee anyị ihe masịrị unu.”
Ko ia naʻe tala ai ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Sepesi, “Te mau ʻalu atu kiate kimoutolu ʻapongipongi, pea te mou fai kiate kimautolu ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku matalelei kiate kimoutolu.”
11 Ma nʼụtụtụ echi, Sọl na ndị agha ya bịaruru. O kewara ndị agha ya ụzọ atọ, buso ụmụ Amọn agha na mberede nʼisi ụtụtụ. O gbugidere ha ụtụtụ niile ruo mgbe anyanwụ chara nʼuju ya, chụsasịa ndị fọdụrụ nʼime ha. Nke a mere na o nweghị ebe a ga-ahụ ka ndị agha Amọn abụọ nọkọtara.
Pea hoko ki he ʻapongipongi, pea pehē, naʻe fokotuʻu vahe tolu ʻe Saula ʻae kakai; pea naʻa nau hoko ki he lotolotonga ʻoe tau ʻi he lakanga leʻo pongipongi, ʻo taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻAmoni ʻo aʻu ki he pupuha ʻoe ʻaho: pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu naʻe toe, naʻe ʻikai tuʻu fakataha ha toko ua.
12 Ndị Izrel niile bịakwutere Samuel jụọ ya sị, “Olee ndị ahụ sị na Sọl agaghị abụ eze anyị? Kpọpụtara anyị ha ka anyị gbuo ha!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kia Samuela, ko hai ia naʻe pehē, “ʻE pule koā ʻa Saula kiate kimautolu? Omi ʻae kau tangata, koeʻuhi ke mau tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu.”
13 Ma Sọl zara sị, “O nweghị onye ọbụla a ga-egbu taa, nʼihi na taa, Onyenwe anyị anapụtala Izrel!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula, “ʻE ʻikai ha tangata ʻe tokotaha ʻe tāmateʻi he ʻaho ni: he kuo fai ʻae fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻi ʻIsileli he ʻaho ni.”
14 Samuel gwara ha sị, “Bịanụ ka anyị gaa Gilgal mee ịbụ eze a ka ọ dị ọhụrụ ọzọ.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kakai, “Haʻu ke tau ō ki Kilikali, ō fakamaʻu ke maʻu ʻae puleʻanga ʻi ai.”
15 Ya mere, mmadụ niile gara Gilgal. Na mmemme pụrụ iche, ha mere Sọl eze nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha chụkwara aja udo nye Onyenwe anyị nʼebe ahụ. Ọṅụ jupụtakwara nʼobi Sọl na ndị Izrel niile.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki Kilikali; pea naʻa nau fakanofo ʻi ai ʻa Saula ke tuʻi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi Kilikali; pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau ko e feilaulau fakalelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova; pea naʻe fiefia lahi ʻi ai ʻa Saula mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli.
