< I Samuel 10 >
1 Ket innala ni Samuel ti maysa a pagkargaan nga aglaon iti lana, imbukbukna daytoy iti ulo ni Saul, ket inagkanna isuna. Kinunana, “Pudno a ni Yahweh ti nangpulot kenka a mangituray iti tawidna.
Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it on his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD has anointed you to be captain over his inheritance?
2 Inton panawannak ita nga aldaw, makasarakkanto iti dua a lallaki iti asideg ti tanem ni Rachel, iti masakupan ti Benjamin idiay Selsa. Ibagadanto kenka, 'Nasarakanen dagiti asno a birbirokem. Ita, nagsardengen nga agdandanag ti amam maipanggep kadagiti asno, ket madandanaganen kenka, a kunkunana, “Ania ti aramidek iti anakko?”'
When you are departed from me to day, then you shall find two men by Rachel’s sepulcher in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, The asses which you went to seek are found: and, see, your father has left the care of the asses, and sorrows for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 Kalpasanna, inton makaadayoka bassit manipud sadiay, ket makadanonkanto iti kayo a lugo iti Tabor. Masabatmonto sadiay ti tallo a lallaki a mapan iti Dios idiay Betel, ti maysa ket nakaukod iti tallo nga urbon a kalding, ti maysa ket nakaawit iti tallo a tinapay, ken ti maysa ket nakaawit iti lalat a naglaon iti arak.
Then shall you go on forward from there, and you shall come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet you three men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:
4 Kablaawandankanto ken ikkandakanto iti dua a tinapay, nga awatemto manipud kadagiti imada.
And they will salute you, and give you two loaves of bread; which you shall receive of their hands.
5 Kalpasan dayta, makadanonkanto iti turod ti Dios, nga ayan ti pagkamkampoan dagiti Filisteo. Inton makasangpetka iti siudad, makasabatkanto iti maysa a bunggoy dagiti profeta a sumalsalog manipud iti nangato a disso a nakaiggem iti arpa, pandereta, plauta, ken lira; agipadtodanto.
After that you shall come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when you are come thither to the city, that you shall meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a tabret, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy:
6 Ti Espiritu ni Yahweh ket umayto kenka, ket makipagpadtokanto kadakuada, ken agbalinkanto a naidumduma a tao.
And the Spirit of the LORD will come on you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.
7 Ita, inton dumteng kenka dagitoy a pagilasinan, aramidem ti aniaman a kayat ti imam nga aramiden, ta ti Dios ket adda kenka.
And let it be, when these signs are come to you, that you do as occasion serve you; for God is with you.
8 Umun-unaka a sumalog idiay Gilgal. Ket sumalogakto iti ayanmo tapno mangidatag kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken mangidaton kadagiti daton a pakikappia. Agurayka iti pito nga aldaw agingga nga umayak iti ayanmo ket ipakitak kenka ti masapul nga aramidem.”
And you shall go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down to you, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shall you tarry, till I come to you, and show you what you shall do.
9 Idi timmalikud ni Saul tapno panawanna ni Samuel, innikkan isuna ti Dios iti sabali a puso. Ket napasamak amin dagitoy a pagilasinan iti dayta nga aldaw.
And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.
10 Idi nakadanonda iti turod, nakasabat isuna iti maysa bunggoy dagiti profeta, ket sibibileg nga immay kenkuana ti Espiritu ti Dios isu a nakipagpadto met isuna kadakuada.
And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came on him, and he prophesied among them.
11 Idi nakita isuna dagiti amin a makaam-ammo idi kenkuana a makipagpadpadto isuna kadagiti profeta, kinuna dagiti tattao iti tunggal maysa, “Ania ti napasamak iti lalaki a putot ni Kis? Maysa kadi itan ni Saul kadagiti profeta?”
And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
12 Simmungbat ti maysa a tao a naggapu iti isu met laeng a lugar, “Ket siasino koma met aya ti amada?” Gapu iti daytoy, nagbalin daytoy a pagsasao, “Maysa kadi metten ni Saul kadagiti profeta?”
And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
13 Idi nalpas iti panagipadpadtona, napan isuna iti nangato a disso.
And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
14 Ket kinuna ti uliteg ni Saul kenkuana ken iti adipenna, “Napnapananyo?” Ket simmungbat isuna, “Binirokmi dagiti asno; idi saanmi dagitoy a mabirokan, napankami kenni Samuel.”
And Saul’s uncle said to him and to his servant, Where went you? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
15 Kinuna ti uliteg ni Saul, “Ibagayo kaniak no ania ti imbaga ni Samuel kadakayo.”
And Saul’s uncle said, Tell me, I pray you, what Samuel said to you.
16 Simmungbat ni Saul iti ulitegna, “Nalawag nga imbagana kadakami a nasarakanen dagiti asno.” Ngem saanna nga imbaga kenkuana ti banag maipanggep iti pagarian a sinarita ni Samuel.
And Saul said to his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.
17 Ita, inayaban ni Samuel dagiti tattao iti sangoanan ni Yahweh idiay Mispa.
And Samuel called the people together to the LORD to Mizpeh;
18 Kinunana kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel: 'Inruarko ti Israel manipud idiay Egipto, ken inispalkayo manipud iti ima dagiti taga-Egipto, ken manipud iti ima dagiti amin a pagarian a nangidadanes kadakayo.'
And said to the children of Israel, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:
19 Ngem ita nga aldaw linaksidyo ti Diosyo, a mangisalsalakan kadakayo manipud iti amin a didigra ken pakariribukanyo; ken imbagayo kenkuana, 'Mangisaadka iti maysa nga ari a mangituray kadakami.' Ita, idatagyo dagiti bagbagiyo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh sigun kadagiti tribu ken kadagiti puliyo.”
And you have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and you have said to him, No, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.
20 Isu a pinaasideg ni Samuel dagiti amin a tribu ti Israel, ket napili ti tribu ni Benjamin.
And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
21 pinaasidegna ti tribu ni Benjamin sigun kadagiti pulida; ket napili ti puli dagiti Matrita; ket napili ni Saul nga anak a lalaki ni Kis. Ngem idi napanda a binirok isuna, saanda a mabirokan isuna.
When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.
22 Kalpasanna, kayat dagiti tattao ti agdamag pay iti Dios, “Adda kadi pay sabali a lalaki nga umay?” Simmungbat ni Yahweh, “Naglemmeng isuna kadagiti gargaret.”
Therefore they inquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come thither. And the LORD answered, Behold he has hid himself among the stuff.
23 Timmarayda ngarud a mapan mangala kenni Saul sadiay. Idi timmakder isuna iti tengnga dagiti tattao, nataytayag isuna ngem kadagiti tattao ket pagat-abagana laeng ida.
And they ran and fetched him there: and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
24 Ket kinuna ni Samuel kadagiti tattao, “Makitayo kadi ti tao a pinili ni Yahweh? Awan iti kas kenkuana kadigiti amin a tattao!” Impukkaw dagiti amin a tattao, “Agbiag ti ari!”
And Samuel said to all the people, See you him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.
25 Kalpasanna, imbaga ni Samuel kadagiti tattao dagiti kaugalian ken pagannurotan iti kinaari, insuratna dagitoy iti maysa a libro, ket inkabilna iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Kalpasanna, pinagawid ni Samuel dagiti amin a tattao, tunggal maysa iti bukodna a balay.
Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
26 Nagawid met ni Saul iti balayna idiay Gabaa, ket kimmuyog kenkuana dagiti dadduma a napipigsa a lallaki, nga akin-puso kadagiti sinagid ti Dios.
And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.
27 Ngem kinuna dagiti dadduma a lallaki nga awan serserbina, “Kasanonatayo a maisalakan daytoy a tao?” Inumsi dagitoy a tattao ni Saul ken saanda a nangiyeg kadagiti aniaman a sagut kenkuana. Ngem nagulimek laeng ni Saul.
But the children of Belial said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought no presents. But he held his peace.
