1 Samuel 7
1 Ya mere, ndị ikom Kiriat Jearim bịara buru igbe ọgbụgba ndụOnyenwe anyị bubata ya nʼụlọ Abinadab nke dị nʼelu ugwu. Ha doro Elieza, ọkpara Abinadab nsọ, ka ọ bụrụ onye na-elekọta igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
Enti, Kiriat-Yearimfoɔ bɛgyee Awurade Apam Adaka no. Wɔde kɔɔ Abinadab efie a ɛda bepɔ nkyɛn baabi. Ɛhɔ na wɔdwiraa ne babarima Eleasa sɛ ɔnhwɛ so.
2 Igbe ahụ dịgidere na Kiriat Jearim ogologo oge, iri afọ abụọ zuruoke. Ma nʼoge a niile, ndị Izrel nọ na-eru ụjụ nʼihi Onyenwe anyị.
Apam Adaka no kyɛree yie wɔ Kiriat-Yearim. Ɛdii mfirinhyia aduonu wɔ hɔ. Saa ɛberɛ no Israel nyinaa twaa agyaadwoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ na ayɛ sɛ Awurade agya wɔn.
3 Ya mere, Samuel gwara ezinaụlọ Izrel niile sị, “Ọ bụrụ na unu ji obi unu niile na alaghachikwute Onyenwe anyị, mgbe ahụ, wezuganụ chi niile nke ndị ala ọzọ, na arụsị Ashtọret site nʼetiti unu. Kpebienụ nʼobi unu ịbịakwute Onyenwe anyị, feekwa naanị ya ofufe. Ọ ga-anapụtakwa unu site nʼaka ndị Filistia.”
Na Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ nyinaa sɛ, “Sɛ mode mo akoma nyinaa resane akɔ Awurade nkyɛn deɛ a, ɛnneɛ, montwe mo ho mfiri ananafoɔ anyame ne Astoret ahoni ho. Monsi mo adwene pi sɛ mobɛyɛ ɔsetie ama Awurade, na monsom ɔno nko, na ɔbɛgye mo afiri Filistifoɔ nsam.”
4 Ya mere, ndị Izrel wezugara arụsị Baal na Ashtọret ha, bido ife naanị Onyenwe anyị.
Enti, Israelfoɔ no too Baalim ne Astoret guiɛ, somm Awurade nko.
5 Samuel gwara ha sị, “Unu ndị Izrel, zukọtaanụ na Mizpa, ka m rịọọ Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ nʼisi unu.”
Afei, Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa sɛ, “Mo nyinaa mommra Mispa, na memmɔ Awurade mpaeɛ mma mo.”
6 Mgbe ha niile zukọrọ nʼebe ahụ, ha kuuru mmiri wụpụ ya nʼala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Nʼụbọchị ahụ kwa, ha buru ọnụ, kwupụta mmehie sị, “Anyị emehiela megide Onyenwe anyị.” Ọ bụ na Mizpa ka Samuel malitere ikpe ụmụ Izrel ikpe.
Enti, wɔboaa wɔn ho ano wɔ hɔ. Na wɔn nyankomadeɛ mu no, wɔsaa nsuo firi abura bi mu, na wɔhwie guu Awurade anim. Wɔdii abuada ɛda no, na wɔkaa nokorɛ sɛ wɔayɛ bɔne atia Awurade. Enti, Mispa hɔ na Samuel bɛyɛɛ Israel so ɔtemmufoɔ.
7 Mgbe ndị Filistia nụrụ na ụmụ Izrel zukọrọ na Mizpa, ndị eze ndị Filistia chịkọtara ndị agha ha, bịa ibuso Izrel agha. Mgbe ụmụ Izrel nụrụ na ha na-abịa nso, ha tụrụ ụjọ nke ukwuu.
Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ sodifoɔ no tee sɛ Israel nyinaa aboa wɔn ho ano wɔ Mispa no, wɔboaboaa wɔn akodɔm ano, tu teneeɛ. Na Israelfoɔ no tee sɛ Filistifoɔ no rebɛn wɔn no, wɔn akoma tuu yie.
8 Ha sịrị Samuel, “Akwụsịla itiku Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị mkpu akwa nʼihi anyị, kpeekwa ekpere ka ọ zọpụta anyị site nʼaka ndị Filistia.”
Wɔdwane toaa Samuel sɛ, “Srɛ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, na ɔnnye yɛn mfiri Filistifoɔ nsam.”
9 Mgbe ahụ, Samuel weere nwa atụrụ na-aṅụ ara jiri ya chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ, rịọkwa Onyenwe anyị ka o nyere Izrel aka. Onyenwe anyị zara ekpere ya.
Enti, Samuel faa odwan ba a ɔnyiniiɛ de ne mua no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Ɔsrɛɛ Awurade maa Israelfoɔ, na Awurade tieeɛ.
10 Nʼoge ahụ, mgbe Samuel nọ na-esure aja nsure ọkụ ahụ, ndị Filistia bịaruru nso ibuso Izrel agha, ma Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼeluigwe were oke olu egbe eluigwe nke dara oke ụda chụsasịa ha. O mere ka ọgbaaghara bata nʼetiti ndị Filistia. Nke a mekwara ka ụmụ Izrel kpochapụ ha,
Ɛberɛ a Samuel gu so rebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no, Filistifoɔ no baa sɛ wɔrebɛko. Nanso, Awurade de aprannaa nne a emu yɛ duru yie kasa firi soro, maa basabasayɛ sii Filistifoɔ no mu, maa Israelfoɔ no dii wɔn so nkonim.
11 Ndị ikom Izrel si na Mizpa pụta chụso ndị Filistia ọsọ, na-etigbu ha nʼụzọ ruo na ndịda Bet-Ka.
Israel mmarima pamoo wɔn firi Mispa, kɔsii Bet-Kar, kunkumm wɔn guu ɛkwan so.
12 Mgbe ahụ, Samuel weere otu nkume doo ya nʼagbata Mizpa na Shen, kpọọ ebe ahụ, Ebeneza, nke pụtara, “Nkume inyeaka,” nʼihi na ọ sịrị, “Nʼezie, Onyenwe anyị enyerela anyị aka ruo ugbu a.”
Ɛnna Samuel faa ɔboɔ kɛseɛ bi de sii Mispa ne Sen ntam. Na ɔtoo no edin Ebeneser a aseɛ ne “Ɔboa boɔ” na ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛha na Awurade aboa yɛn abɛsi!”
13 Ya mere, mmeri a e meriri ndị Filistia mere ka ha ghara ibuso Izrel agha ọzọ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị kwụsịrị ha ime nke a ụbọchị niile nke ndụ Samuel.
Enti, wɔdii Filistifoɔ no so, na wɔantumi ammɛgye Israelfoɔ nsase amfa wɔ ɛberɛ tenten bi mu. Na Samuel nkwa nna mu nyinaa, Awurade nsa a ɛyɛ den no tiaa Filistifoɔ.
14 E nyeghachiri ndị Izrel obodo niile ndị Filistia dọtara nʼagha na mbụ, nke dị site nʼEkrọn ruo Gat. Ndị Izrel napụtara oke ala ndị a site nʼaka ndị Filistia. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, e mere ka udo dị nʼetiti ndị Izrel na ndị Amọrait.
Na Israel nkuro a ɛbɛn Ekron ne Gat no a na Filistifoɔ no agyegye no. Wɔde asase a aka a Filistifoɔ no agyegyeɛ no kaa ho. Ɛmaa asomdwoeɛ baa Israel ne Amorifoɔ ntam saa ɛberɛ no.
15 Samuel nọgidere dịka onye ikpe ndị Izrel ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
Samuel kɔɔ so yɛɛ Israel so ɔtemmufoɔ ne nkwa nna a aka nyinaa.
16 Afọ niile, ọ na-ejegharị site nʼotu obodo ruo nʼobodo ọzọ, site nʼobodo Betel ruo Gilgal, ruokwa Mizpa. Ọ na-anọkwa nʼobodo ndị a na-ekpe ndị Izrel ikpe.
Afe biara, na ɔtu kwan kyinkyini bu atɛn wɔ nʼasɛnniiɛ. Ɔfiri aseɛ wɔ Bet-El de kɔ Gilgal na wawie wɔ Mispa. Ɔbuu Israelfoɔ atɛn wɔ saa nkurotoɔ yi biara so.
17 Ma ọ na-alọghachi na Rema, nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼebe ahụ ka ụlọ ya dị. O kpekwara ndị Izrel ikpe nʼebe ahụ, wuokwara Onyenwe anyị ebe ịchụ aja nʼebe ahụ.
Afei, na ɔsane ba ne kurom Rama bɛdi nsɛm wɔ hɔ nso. Na Samuel sii afɔrebukyia wɔ Rama de maa Awurade.
