1 Samue 10

1 Anante Samueli'a masave tafena erino masavena Soli anumpi taginteteno, antako hunenteno anage hu'ne, Amanahu'zama huana, Israeli vahe'a kegava hanane huno Ra Anumzamo'a kini kazeri otie.

USamuyeli wasethatha umfuma wamafutha wawathela ekhanda likaSawuli wasemanga, esithi, “Uthixo kakugcobanga ukuba ngumbusi welifa lakhe na?

2 Hagi menina natrenka vunka Reselima asente'naza mopamofo agente'ma Zelza Benzameni naga'mofo moparega uhanati'nunka, tare netre ome zanagenakeno, zanagra kasamike hakenkama vu'nana donki afura hago hake'za eri fore hu'naze huke kasamigaha'e. Hagi negafa'a donki afutaminkura agesa ontahino, kagriku tusi agesa nentahino, nankna hu'na mofavreni'a kegahue huno nehuno mani'ne.

Ekusukeni kwakho kimi lamhla, uzahlangana lamadoda amabili eduze kwengcwaba likaRasheli, eliseZeliza esemngceleni wakoBhenjamini. Azakuthi kuwe, ‘Obabhemi obuyebadinga sebetholakele. Khathesi uyihlo kasacabangi ngabo kodwa usekhathazeka ngawe. Uyabuza esithi, “Ngizakwenzanjani ngendodana yami na?”’

3 Hagi anantetira vunka Taboria ra oki zafa agafare uhanatigahane. Hagi anantera 3'a vene'nemo'za Anumzamofo mono ome hunte'naku Beteli nevanagenka ome zanagegahane. Magomo'a 3'a agaho meme afu'zaga avrena, magomo'a 3'a breti erina, mago'mo'a waini tintafe eri'ne'za mareri'za nevanagenka ome zamagegahane.

Uzahamba-ke usuka lapho uze ufike esihlahleni esikhulu saseThabhori. Amadoda amathathu aya kuNkulunkulu eBhetheli azahlangana lawe khonapho. Enye izathwala amazinyane embuzi amathathu, enye izinkwa ezintathu lenye umgodla wewayini.

4 Hagi ana venenemo'za negagesu'za kazeri frufra hunegante'za tare bretia kamigahazanki, ana tare bretia erio.

Azakubingelela akuphe izinkwa ezimbili, ozazamukela kuwo.

5 Hagi anantetira Filistia sondia vahe'mo'zama Ra Anumzamofo agonare Gibeama kuma eme ante'za mani'nare vugahane. Hagi ana kumapima ufrenunka mago'a kasnampa vahezaga agonaregati ne-eza zamagra zamazampina laire nehaza zavenane hapue nehaza zavenane, nase'nasepane, konkene, eri'ne'za ahe'za ne-eza kasanampa kea hu'za ne-esaza vahe ome tutagiha huzmantegahane.

Emva kwalokho, uzakuya eGibhiya kaNkulunkulu lapho okulesilindo sebutho lamaFilistiya khona. Lapho usubanga emzini, uzahlangana lodwendwe lwabaphrofethi besehla bevela endaweni ephakemeyo, phambi kwabo kutshaywa imiqangala lamagedla lemifece kanye lemihubhe, njalo bazakuba bephrofetha.

6 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo kagripi hanavenentake huno efresigenka, kagranena kasanampa ke nehunka, ruzahe hunka ruzahu vahe efore hugahane.

UMoya kaThixo uzakwehlela phezu kwakho ngamandla, lawe uzaphrofetha labo, njalo uzaguqulwa ube ngomunye umuntu.

7 Hagi kagrite'ma ana avame'zama efore'ma hanigenka ketesunka, inankna hu'na vahera zamazama hanugeno knare hugahie hunka kagesama antahi'nana zana, amane hugahane. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kagrane mani'neno kza hugahie.

Izibonakaliso lezi zingagcwaliseka, yenza loba yini okubona kufanele ukuba ukwenze, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulawe.

8 Hagi anantetira Gilgali vugotenka uraminka nevuge'na, Nagra anantega eme kagranena kre fanane hu ofane, rimpa fru ofanena kresramana vugahue. Hagi 7ni'a zagegna navegantenka mani'nege'na kagritega e'na nazanoma hanana zana eme kasamigahue.

Hamba ungandulele eGiligali. Ngizakuza kuwe impela ngizenikela umhlatshelo weminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yobuzalwane. Kodwa kuzamele ulinde insuku eziyisikhombisa ngize ngifike kuwe ngikutshele okumele ukwenze.”

9 Hagi Soli'ma rukrahe huno Samuelima atreno nevigeno'a, Anumzamo'a Soli agu'a azeri ruzahe hu'ne. Ana higeno ana zupage ana maka avame'zamofo kema asami'nea kemo'a rgare'ne.

Kwathi uSawuli ephenduka esesuka kuSamuyeli, uNkulunkulu waguqula inhliziyo kaSawuli, njalo zonke izibonakaliso lezi zagcwaliseka mhlalokho.

10 Hagi Soli'ene eri'za ne'anema Gibiama ehanatikeno'a, mago'a kasnampa vahe'mo'za tutagiha huznante'za kasnampa ke nehazageno, Solina Anumzamofo Avamu'mo agrite hanavetino egeno, ana vahe'ene eri mago huno kasnampa kea hu'ne.

Bathi befika eGibhiya, udwendwe lwabaphrofethi lwabahlangabeza; uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla, laye wahlanganyela ekuphrofitheni kwabo.

11 Hagi Solima ko'ma ke'za antahi'za hu'naza vahe'mo'za kageno kasnampa vahe'ene erimago huno kasnampa kema nehige'za nege'za, zamagra zamagra amanage hu'naze, Kisi nemofontera na'a fore nehie? Agranena kasnampa vahe fore nehie.

Kwathi labo ababevele bemazi bembona esephrofitha labaphrofethi, babuzana besithi, “Kuyini kanti lokhu osekwenzakale endodaneni kaKhishi? USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”

12 Hu'za hazageno mago ana kumate ne'mo mani'nereti otino amanage hu'ne, Mago'a vahe'mo'a amne kasnampa vahera fore hugahie. Iza agri nefa'a mani'ne. Hagi e'i ana agafare anagea nehaze, Soli'a agranena kasnampa vahe mani'nefi? hu'za nehaze.

Umuntu owayehlala lapho waphendula wathi, “Uyise wabo ngubani na?” Ngakho kwaba yisitsho ukuthi: “USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”

13 Hagi Soli'ma kasnampa kema huvagareteno'a, mono'ma ome nehaza agonarega marerino vu'ne.

Kwathi uSawuli eseyekele ukuphrofetha, wasesiya endaweni ephakemeyo.

14 Hagi anante Soli nenogo'a Soline eri'za ne'anena zanantahigeno, iga vuteta nea'e? Higeno Soli'a kenona huno, tagra donki afuku ome hako'ana onketa atreta Samueli ome kenaku vu'noane.

Ngalesosikhathi uyise omncane kaSawuli wambuza kanye lenceku yakhe wathi, “Kanti kade lingaphi?” USawuli waphendula wathi, “Kade sidinga obabhemi. Kodwa kuthe sibona ukuthi kabatholakali, sasesisiya kuSamuyeli.”

15 Huke hakeno Soli nenogo'a huno, muse huranantoanki na'ane huno tanasami'nefi nasami'o.

Uyise omncane kaSawuli wasesithi, “Ngitshela ukuthi uSamuyeli utheni kuwe.”

16 Higeno Soli'a nenogona kenona hunteno, donki afu'tamina fanane hu'neana hago ke'za erifore hu'naze huno agra tasami'ne. Hianagi kini manigahanema huno asami'nea nanekea osami'ne.

USawuli waphendula wathi, “Uqinise kithi ukuthi obabhemi sebebonakele.” Kodwa kamtshelanga uyise omncane okwakutshiwo nguSamuyeli ngobukhosi.

17 Hagi henka Samueli'a Israeli vahera ke hige'za Ra Anumzamofo avuga Mispa kumate e'naze.

USamuyeli wabizela abantu bako-Israyeli kuThixo eMizipha

18 Hagi anante agra Israeli vahera zamasamino, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a anage huno huama hie, Isipi vahe zamazampintira tamavre atiramina mareri'na ne-ena, mika knama tamamiza kuma'tamimofo hanavefintira tamavre'na atirami'noe.

wathi kubo, “Nanku okutshiwo yiThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: ‘Ngakhupha u-Israyeli eGibhithe, njalo ngalikhulula esandleni seGibhithe lakuyo yonke imibuso eyayilincindezela.’

19 Hianagi tamagra menina hazenke zampinti'ene knazampinti'ma tamagu'vazi'nea Anumzana atreta tamage'na humi'naze. Hagi tamagra huta kini vahe huhamprintegeno kva huranteno hu'naze. Hagi menina Ra Anumzamofo avuga nagate nofite omeritru emeri tru hiho.

Kodwa khathesi selimalile uNkulunkulu wenu, olihlengayo ezingozini zenu zonke lasezinsizini. Njalo selithe, ‘Hatshi, sibekele inkosi ezasibusa.’ Ngakho-ke khathesi zibonakaliseni phambi kukaThixo ngezizwana zenu langezinsendo zenu.”

20 Hagi Samueli'a Israeli naga nofira miko kehige'za erava'o hutazageno, Ra Anumzamofo avesi kenaku taisi zokago reno kegeno Ra Anumzamo'a Benzameni naga zamazeri fore hu'ne.

Kwathi uSamuyeli esezilethe eduze zonke izizwana zako-Israyeli, isizwana sikaBhenjamini sakhethwa.

21 Hagi anama hute'za ete Benzameni nagate ana taisi zokago re'za kazageno, Matri naga huhampri zamante'ne. Hutegeno anampinti Kisi nemofo Soli huhamprinte'ne. Hianagi Soli'a anampina omani'nege'za ke'za erifore osu'naze.

Emva kwalokho waletha isizwana sikaBhenjamini phambili, usendo ngosendo, kwakhethwa usendo lukaMathiri. Ekucineni kwakhethwa uSawuli, indodana kaKhishi. Kodwa kwathi sebemdinga akaze abonakala.

22 Ana hige'za Ra Anumzamofona zamagra antahige'za, iga Soli'a mani'ne, hazageno Ra Anumzamo'a huno, fenozantamima ante'nafi kankamumpi frakino mani'ne.

Ngakho babuza njalo kuThixo bathi, “Umuntu lo uke wafika lapha na?” UThixo wathi, “Ye, usezifihle phakathi kwezimpahla.”

23 Hige'za ananke'ma nentahi'za zamagare'za vu'za Solina anampinkati ome avre'za ageno, ana vahe'enema eme oti'neana agra za'za hu'negeno miko vahe'mo'za agri afunteke eme atre'naze.

Bagijima bayamkhipha, njalo kwathi esemi phakathi kwabantu, wayemude kulabo bonke.

24 Hagi anante Samueli'a maka vahera zamasamino, Ra Anumzamo'ma huhamprintea nera hago kazo? Hianagi miko vahe'mota atupa hu'nazanki ana ne'mo'a za'za huno tamagatere'ne, hige'za miko vahe'mo'za ranke hu'za, za'zate kinia manino vugahie.

USamuyeli wasesithi ebantwini bonke, “Liyambona yini umuntu osekhethwe nguThixo? Kakho lamunye onjengaye phakathi kwabantu bonke bako-Israyeli.” Abantu baklabalala besithi, “Impilo ende enkosini!”

25 Hagi Samueli'a kini ne'mo'ma eri'zama erisia ke'a miko vahera nezamasamino, ana naneke avontafepi krenteno Ra Anumzamofo avuga ante'ne. Anama huteno'a miko vahera kuma'zmirega huzmantege'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.

USamuyeli wachaza ebantwini imithetho yobukhosi. Wayiloba emqulwini wayibeka phambi kukaThixo. Emva kwalokho wabachitha abantu, ngulowo lalowo waya emzini wakhe.

26 Hagi Soli'enena kuma'arega Gibea nevige'za, Anumzamo'ma zamarimpama zamazeri otia hanavenentake sondia vahe'mo'za agrane vu'naze.

USawuli laye waya kibo eGibhiya ephelekezelwa ngabantu abangamaqhawe uNkulunkulu ayethinte inhliziyo zabo.

27 Hianagi mago'a hazenke vahe'mo'za hu'za, inankna huno ama ne'mo'a tagu'vazigahie. Hagi ana vahe'mo'za huhaviza hunente'za musezana eri'za eme omi'naze. Hianagi Soli'a ana vahekura mago kea osu'ne.

Kodwa ezinye izidlwangudlwangu zathi, “Umuntu lo angasikhulula kanjani na?” Zameyisa kazaze zamlethela zipho. Kodwa uSawuli wazithulela.
