< 1 Samue 15 >
1 Hagi mago zupa Samueli'a amanage huno Solina asami'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a nagri hunantege'na Israeli vahe kinima mani'nankura masavena eme fregante'na huhampri kante'noe. Hagi menina Ra Anumzamo'ma kasami'nia nanekea antahise huo.
Samuel told Saul, “The Lord sent me to anoint you king of his people Israel. So now pay attention to what the Lord has to say.
2 Hagi amanage huno hanavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a hie, Israeli vahe'ma Isipinti'ma neage'za zamazeri haviza hu'naza zantera, Nagra Ameleki vahera zamazeri haviza menina hugahue.
This is what the Lord Almighty says: I observed what the Amalekites did to Israel when they ambushed them on their way from Egypt.
3 Hagi menina vuta Ameleki vahera ha' ome huzmanteta mika zazimia eri haviza nehuta, zamahe fanane hu vagareho. Hagi vene'nema, a'nema, mofavrema, meni kasente'nenia mofavrema bulimakaoma, sipisipima, kemolima, donkinena mika'a zamahe friho.
Go and attack the Amalekites and exterminate all of them. Don't spare anyone, but kill every man, woman, child, and baby; every ox, sheep, camel, and donkey.”
4 Higeno Soli'a Israeli sondia vahera Telaimi kumate zamazeri atru huno zamazeri antefatgo huno keana, 200 tauseni'a Israeli vahe manizageno, Juda vahera 10 tauseni'a sondia vahe mani'naze.
Saul called up his army at Telem. There were 200,000 Israelite infantry and 10,000 men from Judah.
5 Hagi Soli'a sondia vahe'ane Ameleki vahe ha' huzmantenaku kafo ome ante'za timo'a ko hagage hu'nea karahopi ome fraki'za mani'naze.
Saul advanced on the town of Amalek and set up an ambush in the valley.
6 Anante Soli'a Kenaiti vahekura huno, Ameleki vahera zamatreta viho. Hagi ana'ma osnazana ana vahe'ene tamahe hana hugahue. Na'ankure Israeli vahe'mo'zama Isipima atre'za karankama neageta tamagra knare tamavutamava huzmanteta zamaza hu'naze. Anage hige'za Kenaiti vahe'mo'za Ameleki vahera zamatre'za vu'naze.
Saul sent a message to warn the Kenites, “Move out of the area and leave the Amalekites so that I don't destroy you with them, because you showed kindness to all the people of Israel on their way from Egypt.” So the Kenites moved away and left the Amalekites.
7 Ana hutazageno Soli'ene sondia vahe'amo'zanena Ameleki vahera hara Havira kumateti huzmante'za vu'za Isipi mopamofo zage hanati kaziga Suri kumate uhanati'naze.
Saul defeated the Amalekites from Havilah as far as Shur, to the east of Egypt.
8 Hagi kini ne'zamia Agakina ahe ofri amne aze'neri'za, maka vahera bainati kazinkonteti zamahe fri'naze.
He captured Agag, king of Amalek, alive, but exterminated all the people by the sword.
9 Hagi Soli'ene sondia vahe'amozanena Agakina nohe'za, knare'ma hu'nea sipisipi afutamine, knare'ma hu'nea bulimakao afutamine, agaho sipisipine, agaho bulimakaone marerirfa fenozanena eri havizana osu'naze. Hianagi haviza huno knare'ma osu'nea zantamina miko zamahe frivaga nere'za eri haviza huvagare'naze.
Saul and his army spared Agag, together with the best sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs, and everything else that was any good. They didn't want to destroy those, but they completely destroyed all that was unwanted and worthless.
10 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina amanage huno asami'ne,
The Lord sent a message to Samuel, saying,
11 Solina otroanki kinima azeri oti'noa zankura, narimpamo'a haviza hie. Na'ankure agra amagena hunenamino, osuoma hu'na hunte'noaza nehie. Anagema huno asamigeno'a, Ra Anumzamofontega Samueli'a krafage huno nunamuna huno nevigeno kotu'ne.
“I'm sorry I made Saul king, for he has given up following me and hasn't done as I ordered.” Samuel was upset, and he cried out to the Lord all through the night.
12 Hagi Samueli'a nanterame otino Soli ome kenaku nevigeno, mago'a vahe'mo'za asami'za, Soli'a ha'ma hugatere'nea zante'ma nege'za antahimi haverami Karmel kumate ome retru renteteno, anantetira atreno Gilgali vu'ne.
Samuel got up early in the morning and went to meet Saul, but he was told, “Saul's gone to Carmel. There he's even erected a monument to honor himself, and now he's left and gone down to Gilgal.”
13 Higeno Samueli'ma Solinte'ma ehanatigeno'a Soli'a huno, Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hugante'nie. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma ome hugahane huno'ma hunante'nea kante ante'na maka zana huvagare'noe.
When Samuel caught up with him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have done what the Lord ordered.”
14 Hianagi Samueli'a huno, Na'a hige'na sipisipi ageru'ene bulimakao agerura nentahue?
“So what's this bleating of sheep my ears are picking up? What's this lowing of cattle that I'm hearing?” Samuel asked.
15 Anage higeno Soli'a kenona huno, Sondia vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamofontega kresramna vunte'za Ameleki vahe'mokizmi knare'ma hu'nea Sipisipine bulimakaonena avre'za e'nazanki, mika zana zamahe vaganereta eri haviza hu'none.
“The army brought them from the Amalekites,” Saul replied. “They spared the best sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we completely destroyed the rest.”
16 Hagi Samueli'a huno, Taganenka mani'nege'na Ra Anumzamo'ma oki kenage'ma nasami'nea kea kasamineno, huno Solina azeri korigeno Soli'a huno, na'ane hu'nefi nasamio, huno Soli'a hu'ne.
“Oh, be quiet!” Samuel told Saul. “Let me tell you what the Lord told me last night.” “Tell me what he said,” Saul replied.
17 Higeno Samueli'a asamino, Kagra kora kagi omane vahe mani'noe hunka kagesa antahi'nananagi, Ra Anumzamo Agra'a Israeli vahe kinia kazeri oti'ne.
“Once you didn't use to think much of yourself, but haven't you become the leader of the tribes of Israel?” Samuel asked. “The Lord anointed you king of Israel.
18 Ana nehuno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno eri'zankea hugante'ne, kumi zamavu'zamava nehaza Ameleki vahera ha' ome huzamantenka mika zamahe fri vagaro huno hu'ne.
Then he sent you out to do something, telling you, ‘Go and exterminate those sinners, the Amalekites. Attack them until they're all destroyed.’
19 Hagi nahigeta Ra Anumzamofo ke'a amagera onteta, knare'nare'zana ha'ma hazafintira ame'amara huta omenerita Ra Anumzamofo avufina havi avu'avara hu'naze?
Why didn't you do what the Lord ordered? Why did you swoop down on the plunder and do what was evil in the Lord's sight?”
20 Higeno Soli'a amanage huno Samuelina asami'ne, Hianagi nagra Ra Anumzamofo ke amage ante'na Ra Anumzamo'ma ome hugahanema hunanteazana ome hu'noe. Nagra maka'zana ome zamahe vaganere'na Kini ne' Agakina avre'na e'noe.
“But I did do what the Lord ordered!” Saul replied. “I went and did what the Lord sent me to do. I brought back Agag, king of Amalek, and completely destroyed the Amalekites.
21 Hianagi knare'nare'ma hu'nea sipisipi afutamine, meme afutamine, bulimakao afutamina Gilgali Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamofontega kresramna vunte'zane hu'za sondia vahe'mo'za avre'za e'naze.
The army took sheep and cattle from the plunder, the best of what was consecrated to God, to sacrifice them to the Lord your God in Gilgal.”
22 Hianagi Samueli'a kenona huno, Ra Anumzamo'a ofama hu'zane kresramna vuzanku musena hugahifi, ke'ama amage'ma ante'zanku musena hugahie? Ra Anumzamofo kema antahino amage ante'zamo'a, ofama hu'zana agateregeno, sipisipi afovama erino eme kresramna vu'zana, Anumzamofo kema antahi'zamo agatere'ne.
“Does the Lord prefer burnt offerings and sacrifices, or obedience to what he says?” Samuel asked. “Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice. Paying attention is more important than offering the fat of rams.
23 Hagi kema rutagre avu'avazamo'a zagomareno ke avu'avazamofo kumi kna higeno, kema ontahi'zamo'a, havi anumzante mono hunentea kumikna hu'ne. Kagra Ra Anumzamofo ke rutrage'nanku, Ra Anumzamo'a kini tratetira kagria kazeri atre.
Rebellion is as bad as witchcraft, and arrogance is as bad as the sin of idolatry. Because you have rejected the Lord's commands, he has rejected you as king.”
24 Higeno Soli'a huno, Ra Anumzamo'ma kasamigenka nasami'nana kea nagra rutagre'na kumi hu'noe. Na'ankure sondia vaheku koro hu'na ana hu'noe.
“I have sinned,” Saul confessed to Samuel. “I disobeyed the Lord's orders and your instructions, because I was afraid of the people and followed what they said.
25 Hagi nagra nasunku huanki kumi'ni'a atrenenantenka, nagrane ege'na Ra Anumzamofona monora ome huntaneno.
So please forgive my sin and come back with me, so I can worship the Lord.”
26 Hianagi Samueli'a kenona huno, Nagra kagranena ovugahue. Na'ankure kagra Ra Anumzamofo ke rutagrankeno Israeli vahe kinia mago'ene omanisane huno kazeri atre'ne.
But Samuel told him, “I'm not going back with you. You have rejected the Lord's orders, and the Lord has rejected you as king of Israel!”
27 Hagi Samueli'ma rukrahe huno Solima atreno vu'za higeno, Soli'a Samuelina za'za kena'amofo atupa'are azerinegeno viana tagato hu'ne.
As Samuel turned away to leave, Saul grabbed hold of the hem of his robe, and it ripped.
28 Hagi ana'ma higeno'a Samueli'a Solina asamino, Ra Anumzamo'a menina kinima mani'nenka Israeli vahe'ma kegavama hu'nana trara erimareno kagrima kagetere'nea ne' ami'ne.
Samuel said to him, “The Lord has ripped the kingdom of Israel away from you today and has given it to your neighbor—someone who is better than you!
29 Hagi Israeli vahe'mofo Hanavenentake Anumzamo'a, kema hia kemofona ruotagreno, antahi'zama'a ruzahe osu Anumzankino, Agra vahera omani'neankino antahintahi'a zahera osugosie!
In addition, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind, for he is not a human being who changes his mind!”
30 Hagi Soli'a mago'ene inene huno Samuelinkura anage hu'ne, Kumi hu'noanagi antahinaminka nagrane egeta, vahe'nimokizmine kva vahe zamavugane, Israeli vahe zamavuga Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamofona monora ome huntaneno.
“Yes, I have sinned,” Saul replied. “Please honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel—come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord your God.”
31 Anage higeno Samueli'a avaririno vigeno Soli'a Ra Anumzamofona monora ome hunte'ne.
So Samuel went back with Saul after all, and Saul worshiped the Lord.
32 Hagi Samueli'a huno, Ameleki kini ne' Agakina avreta eho, huno Samueli'a hige'za avre'za e'naze. Hagi Agakima avre'za ne'ageno'a, hago hara vagareankino nahe ofrigahaze huno agesa antahi'ne.
Then Samuel said, “Bring me Agag, king of the Amalekites.” Agag came to him confidently, for he thought, “The threat of death of being killed must have passed.”
33 Hagi Samueli'a Agakina asamino, Kagra rama'a vahe zamahanke'za mofavrezamia omani aneramina rama'a mani'nazankino, kagri'enena negrerana mofavre'a omanigahie. Anage huno nehuno Ra Anumzamofo avuga Samueli'a Agakina aheno Gilgali kumate rukafri makafri hutre'ne.
But Samuel said, “In the same way that your sword has made women childless, so too your mother will be childless among women.” Samuel cut Agag to pieces before the Lord at Gilgal.
34 Ana huteno Samueli'a atreno Rama vigeno, Soli'a kuma arega Gibea vu'ne.
Samuel left for Ramah, and Saul went home to Gibeah of Saul.
35 Hagi mago'ane Solina onke mani'neno Samueli'a fri'ne. Hagi Samueli'a Solinkura rama'a asunku hu'ne. Hagi nahigena Israeli vahe'mofo kinia Solina azeri oti'noe huno nehuno, Ra Anumzamo'a asunku hu'ne.
Until the day of his death, Samuel never visited Saul again. Samuel mourned over Saul, and the Lord regretted he had made Saul the king of Israel.
