1 Samue 16

1 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina amanage huno asami'ne, Nama'agna Solinkura kasunkura nehane? Israeli vahe kinima mani'neana hago Nagra azeri atre'noe. Hagi pazivepi olivi masavena taginka e'nerinka, Betlehemu Jesi nagatega vuo. Na'ankure Nagra agri mofavre nagapinti mago'mofo kinia manigahie hu'na huhamprinte'noe.

And Jehovah said to Samuel, How long will thou mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill thy horn with oil, and go. I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for me a king among his sons.

2 Anage higeno Samueli'a huno, Soli'a nahe frigahianki nagra inankna hu'na vugahue? Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Anenta onte'ne'nia a' bulimakao mago avrenenka vunka, Ra Anumzamofontega kresramana vuku neoe hunka ome huo.

And Samuel said, How do I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me. And Jehovah said, Take a heifer with thee, and say, I have come to sacrifice to Jehovah.

3 Hagi ome kre sramanama vanantera Jesina hugeno ena, Nagri eri'zama erisia mofavre'a kaveri ha'nena masavena taginka frentenka huhamprinto.

And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show thee what thou shall do. And thou shall anoint to me him whom I name to thee.

4 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma asamia kante anteno Samueli'a Betlehemu nevige'za, ana kumate kva vahe'mo'za tutagiha'ma hunente'za antri nehu'za amanage hu'naze, Kagra tarimpa fru naneke erinka neano?

And Samuel did that which Jehovah spoke, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, Do thou come peaceably?

5 Anage hu'za antahigazageno Samueli'a huno, izo nagra Ra Anumzamofontega kresramana vuntenaku neoe. Hagi tamagra'a tamazeri agru nehuta, nagrane enketa kresramana vamaneno, nehuno Samueli'a Jesine mofavrezaga'a zamazeri agru nehuno zamagi hige'za kresramna vutera e'naze.

And he said, Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to Jehovah. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

6 Hagi anama hute'za Jesi'ene mofavre naga'ama azageno'a, kotamofo Eliabuma negeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a tamage huno amamofo huhamprine huno Samueli'a antahi'ne.

And it came to pass, when they came, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely Jehovah's anointed is before him.

7 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina amanage huno asami'ne, Amega avufgare'ene za'za'ma huno hentofazama hu'nenia zantera, kenka huhampri onto. Na'ankure nagra agrira huhampri onte'noe. Hagi Nagra vahe'ma huhamprima nezmantoana, vahe'mo'zama nehazaza hu'na amega zmavufgarera nege'na hunohampruanki, zamagu'are nege'na hunehamprue.

But Jehovah said to Samuel, Do not look on his countenance, or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For Jehovah sees not as man sees, for man looks on the outward appearance, but Jehovah looks on the heart.

8 Anage higeno Jesi'a anante'mofo Aminadapu huntegeno Samueli avuga e'ne. Hianagi Samueli'a huno, Amamofonena Ra Anumzamo'a huhampri onte'ne.

Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither has Jehovah chosen this man.

9 Anage higeno Jesi'a mago mofavre'a Sama huntegeno Samueli avuga e'neanagi Samueli'a huno, amamofonena Ra Anumzamo'a huhampri onte'ne.

Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither has Jehovah chosen this man.

10 Higeno Jesi'a 7ni'a mofavre zaga'a kea hige'za Samueli avuga e'nazanagi Samueli'a Jesina asamino, Ra Anumzamo'a ama anampintira mago'mofona huhampri onte'ne.

And Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said to Jesse, Jehovah has not chosen these men.

11 Hagi anante Samueli'a Jesina anage huno antahige'ne, Ama'age mofavreka'a mani'nafi mago'a omani'nazo? Huno antahigegeno Jesi'a huno, magora amitena mofavrea mani'neanagi sipisipi afu kva huno mani'ne huno asamigeno Samueli'a huno, Ne'zana one otiteta mani'nenunanki mago'a vahe huzamantege'za vu'za ome avre'za eho.

And Samuel said to Jesse, Are all thy sons here? And he said, There remains yet the youngest, and, behold, he is keeping the sheep. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and fetch him, for we will not sit down till he comes here.

12 Higeno vahera huzamantege'za vu'za ome avre'za azageno, ke'neana hentofa vahekino avurgamo rumsa huno anefa hu'ne. Anante Ra Anumzamo'a huno, e'ina neki masavena taginka frenentenka huhamprinto.

And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and of a beautiful countenance, and fine to look upon. And Jehovah said, Arise, anoint him, for this is he.

13 Ana higeno Samueli'a afuhe'mofo zamavufi ana pazive erino masavena tagino frenenteno huhamprinte'ne. Hagi ana knareti'ma e'neana Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a hanave'ane Devitintera emani'neno agrane maka kna manino e'ne. Hagi anama Samueli'a huteno'a ete Rama kuma'arega vu'ne.

Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers. And the Spirit of Jehovah came mightily upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

14 Hagi anama hutegeno'a Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a Solina atreno vigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a havi avamu huntegeno Soli agu'afina efreno antahintahi'a azeri haviza nehigeno koro hu'ne.

Now the Spirit of Jehovah departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Jehovah troubled him.

15 Hagi Solina eri'za vahe'amo'za asami'za, Antahio, Ra Anumzamo'a havi avamu huntegeno kazeri haviza nehie.

And Saul's servants said to him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubles thee.

16 Hagi rantimoka eri'za vahe'kama amama kavugama oti'nonana hurantegeta hapue nehaza zavenama ahe vaheku ome haketa avreta amneno. Hagi inanknarero Ra Anumzamo'ma havi avamu'ma huntesigeno ena ana vahe'mo'za zavena nehehanagenka knarera hugahane.

Let our lord now command thy servants, who are before thee, to seek out a man who is a skilful player on the harp. And it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shall be well.

17 Higeno Soli'a eri'za vahe'a huzmanteno, Vuta hapu zavenama knare'ma hu'za nehesaza vahe ome haketa avreta eho.

And Saul said to his servants, Provide for me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me.

18 Higeno mago eri'za ne'mo'a kenona huno, Mago Betlehemu ne' Jesi nagapinti risera ke'noana knare huno hapue nehaza zavena nehege'na ke'noe. Hagi agra hentofa agi agonane nekino, koro osu harafa ne' mani'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a mani'ne.

Then one of the young men answered, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite who is skilful in playing, and a mighty man of valor, and a man of war, and prudent in speech, and a comely man, and Jehovah is with him.

19 Anante Soli'a kato vahera huzmanteno, Jesina ome asaminkeno ne' mofavre'a Devitina huntenkeno sipisipi kvama huno mani'neregatira atreno nagritega eno.

Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, Send to me David thy son, who is with the sheep.

20 Higeno Jesi'a donki afu agumpi bretine, waini tintafenena erinenteno, mago agaho sipisipinena avrenenteno huzmantege'za Devitinena avre'za Solintega vu'naze.

And Jesse took a donkey with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them by David his son to Saul.

21 Hagi Deviti'a Soli eri'za agafa huno emerigeno, Soli'a tusiza huno avesinentegeno, agra Solina hanko'ama eri eri'za vahe mani'ne.

And David came to Saul, and stood before him. And he loved him greatly, and he became his armor bearer.

22 Hagi Soli'a Jesina ke atrenteno, Muse hugantoanki atregeno Deviti'a nagri eri'za vahe manino. Na'ankure agra knare huno eri'zana erige'na muse huntoe.

And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me, for he has found favor in my sight.

23 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma havi avamu'ma huntegeno Solinte'ma egeno'a, Deviti'a hapu zavena'a erino eme nehegeno, Soli'a nentahino ete knare antahi'zana e'nerigeno, havi avamu'mo'a atreno nefre.

And it came to pass, when the spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand. So Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
