1 Samue 9
1 Hagi magora rama'a feno ante'nea nera Benzameni naga nofipinti ne'mofo agi'a Kisi'e. Hagi Kisina Abieli kasentegeno, Abielina Zerori kasentegeno, Zerorina Bekorati kasentegeno, Bekoratina Afia kasente'ne. Ana hu'neankino Kisi'a rama'aza anteno agi me'nea ne' mani'ne.
Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a Benjamite, a mighty man of valour.
2 Hagi Kisi'a ne' mofavre ante'neankino, hentofa nehazavegino agra za'za huno maka Israeli vahera zamagatere vagare'neankino, agi'a Soli'e. Israeli vahe'mokizmi amu'nompina magore huno agrikna nera omani'ne.
He had a son whose name was Saul, an impressive young man; and there was not amongst the children of Israel a more handsome person than he. From his shoulders and upward he was taller than any of the people.
3 Hagi mago knafina Kisi donki afutamimo'za fanene hu'nazageno nemofo Solina asamino, mago eri'za vahe nevrenka vunka ana donki afuzagagu ome hako.
The donkeys of Kish, Saul’s father, were lost. Kish said to Saul his son, “Now take one of the servants with you, and arise, go look for the donkeys.”
4 Higeno Soli'ene eri'za ne'ane hakeke Efraemi agona kokampina nevune, Salisa uhanati'na'anagi magore huke hakeke eriforera osu'na'e. Anantetira hakeke Salimi vuna'anagi hakeke eri fore osuke netreke, Benzameni naga'mokizmi kumatamimpi vu'na'anagi onketfa hu'na'e.
He passed through the hill country of Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalishah, but they didn’t find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaalim, and they weren’t there. Then he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they didn’t find them.
5 Hagi anantetira hakeke Sufu kaziga uhanatiteke, Soli'a eri'za ne'a asamino, Ru nenfa'a donki afuku'ma agesa antahintahima nehiama'a agatereno tagrikura agesa antahinigi egeta ete kumatega va'maneno.
When they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, “Come! Let’s return, lest my father stop caring about the donkeys and be anxious for us.”
6 Hianagi eri'za ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Ko, antu kumatera magora Ra Anumzamofo eri'za nera mani'neankino vahe'mo'za kesaga hunentaza nere. Hagi mika zanku'ma fore hugahiema nehiazamo'a fore nehia neki, egeta antu ana nete va'manenkeno, amaretira inante vugahu'e agra tasamigahie.
The servant said to him, “Behold now, there is a man of God in this city, and he is a man who is held in honour. All that he says surely happens. Now let’s go there. Perhaps he can tell us which way to go.”
7 Hagi Soli'a eri'za ne'amofona amanage huno kenona hunte'ne, Tagra knare Ra Anumzamofo eri'za netera vugahuanagi, naza muse zana eri'neta omenemita hugahue. Hagi hago ne'zama eri'no'a zana nevagare'noe. Hagi tavatera musezama amisu'azana omane'ne.
Then Saul said to his servant, “But behold, if we go, what should we bring the man? For the bread is spent in our sacks, and there is not a present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?”
8 Anage higeno ete eri'za ne'amo'a Solina kenona hunteno, Ko, ama kunifina osi'a silva zagoa eri'noankita Ra Anumzamofo vahe'mofona aminukeno inante tagra vugahu'e agra tasamigahie.
The servant answered Saul again and said, “Behold, I have in my hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver. I will give that to the man of God, to tell us our way.”
9 (Hagi ana knafina Israeli vahe'mo'za Anumzamofontegati'ma keagama erinakura, enketa avune vahe ome kamaneno nehaze. Hagi korapara avune vahere hu'za nehazanagi, menina Anumzamofo kasnampa vahere hu'za nehaze).
(In earlier times in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, he said, “Come! Let’s go to the seer;” for he who is now called a prophet was before called a seer.)
10 Hagi Soli'a eri'za ne'agura anage hu'ne, Knare ke hananki vanu'e. Anage higeke Anumzamofo vahe'ma nemanirega vu'na'e.
Then Saul said to his servant, “Well said. Come! Let’s go.” So they went to the city where the man of God was.
11 Hagi agonarega umarerike rankumatega nevakeno ana kumapinti tifinaku atineramiza mofa'nezaga ome zamantahigeke anage hu'na'e, avune nera mani'neo?
As they went up the ascent to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said to them, “Is the seer here?”
12 Hakeno ana mofa'nemo'za kenona hu'za, izo meni avune nera tagri kumapina e'neno kresramana vu ofa nehu'za ruotge ne'za nenaku nehaza vahe zamavareno agonarega vu'za nehianki, ame huta ko vi'o.
They answered them and said, “He is. Behold, he is before you. Hurry now, for he has come today into the city; for the people have a sacrifice today in the high place.
13 Hagi ne'zama nenaku agonarega mareorinesigeta kumapima ufresuta'a ome tutagiha huntegaha'e. Hagi zamagima hu'nea vahe'mo'za ne'zana one avega ante'zma mani'nenageno uhanatino asomu kea ome hutena negahaze. Hagi hantaka huta vanuta'a ome kegaha'e.
As soon as you have come into the city, you will immediately find him before he goes up to the high place to eat; for the people will not eat until he comes, because he blesses the sacrifice. Afterwards those who are invited eat. Now therefore go up; for at this time you will find him.”
14 Hagi zanagra kumapi ufreke nevuke, Samueli'a agonarega mono'ma nehaza kumatega vunaku ne-egeke ome ke'na'e.
They went up to the city. As they came within the city, behold, Samuel came out towards them to go up to the high place.
15 Hagi Soli'ma ome'negeno ko oki Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina asamino,
Now the LORD had revealed to Samuel a day before Saul came, saying,
16 okina ama ana knare Benzameni mopafinti mago nera hunta'nenkeno kagrite egahie. Hagi kagra masave frentenka azeri ruotage hugeno Israeli vaheni'arera kva mani'neno Filistia vahe'mo'zama zamazeri havizama nehaza zamazampintira zamagu vazigahie. Na'ankure zavi krafagezmia Nagra nentahi'na vaheni'a antahinezamue.
“Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be prince over my people Israel. He will save my people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon my people, because their cry has come to me.”
17 Hagi Samueli'ma Solima negegeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a Samuelina asamino, E'i'na neku kasami'noankino agra vahe'nirera kegava hugahie.
When Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, “Behold, the man of whom I spoke to you! He will have authority over my people.”
18 Higeno Soli'ma kuma kahante Samuelima tutagiha hunenteno'a antahigeno, Inantega avune ne'mofo nona me'ne huno Samuelina antahige'ne?
Then Saul approached Samuel in the gateway, and said, “Please tell me where the seer’s house is.”
19 Higeno Samueli'a kenona hunteno, Nagra ama'na avune nera mani'noanki, ete vugeta agonarega marerimaneno. Hagi menina nagrane ne'zana nenenka oki nantera katra'nena vugahane. Hagi kagra'ma kagesa antahi'nana zantamina kasamivaregahue.
Samuel answered Saul and said, “I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you are to eat with me today. In the morning I will let you go and will tell you all that is in your heart.
20 Hagi donkima fananema higeno 3'a knama evu'nea zankura kagesa ontahio, ko hake'za erifore hu'naze. Hagi menina Israeli vahe'mo'za kagri'ene negafa nagaku'ene amuhara nehaze.
As for your donkeys who were lost three days ago, don’t set your mind on them, for they have been found. For whom does all Israel desire? Is it not you and all your father’s house?”
21 Hagi Soli'a kenona amanage hu'ne, Israeli naga nofipina Benzameni nagara osi naga manizageno, ana agau'afina nagri naga'mo'za osi'a naga mani'none. Hagi nahigenka e'inahu kea nehane?
Saul answered, “Am I not a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? And my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then do you speak to me like this?”
22 Hagi Samueli'a, Soline eri'za ne'anena nezanavreno vuno vahe'ma kehige'za emani'naza nompi ufreno, ese trate ome zanante'ne. Hagi anampinka 30'a vahe naza mani'naze.
Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the guest room, and made them sit in the best place amongst those who were invited, who were about thirty persons.
23 Hagi Samueli'a ne'zama negrea nera asamino, rure antese huo hu'nama kasami'noa afu ame'a erinka eme namio.
Samuel said to the cook, “Bring the portion which I gave you, of which I said to you, ‘Set it aside.’”
24 Higeno ne'zama negrea ne'mo'a afu aga'a erino Soli avuga eme ante'ne. Hagi Samueli'a Solina amanage huno asami'ne, Vahetamima kema nehu'na, kagri suzane hu'na antegante'noanki, amama zamagima huge'za aza vahe'ene ne'zana no. Higeno Soli'a ana zupa Samueli'ene ne'zana ne'ne.
The cook took up the thigh, and that which was on it, and set it before Saul. Samuel said, “Behold, that which has been reserved! Set it before yourself and eat; because it has been kept for you for the appointed time, for I said, ‘I have invited the people.’” So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
25 Hagi anantetira kumate'ma eramizageno'a Samueli'a nomofo agofetu Soli'enena keaga huteno, noma mase'niazana retro huntegeno mase'ne.
When they had come down from the high place into the city, he talked with Saul on the housetop.
26 Hagi kotu avame Samueli'a otino Solina kehuno, Otige'na kazeri retrotra hanena kumakarega vuo. Higeno Soli'a otino Samueli'ene magoka kantega vu'na'e.
They arose early; and about daybreak, Samuel called to Saul on the housetop, saying, “Get up, that I may send you away.” Saul arose, and they both went outside, he and Samuel, together.
27 Hagi kumapinti'ma utiraminaku'ma nehu'za Samueli'a Solina amanage huno asami'ne, ko huntegeno eri'za nekamo'a tatreno vugoteno nevina, kagra amare osi'agna nagrane mani'nege'na Ra Anumzamo nasami'nea kea huama hu'na kasami'neno.
As they were going down at the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell the servant to go on ahead of us.” He went ahead, then Samuel said, “But stand still first, that I may cause you to hear God’s message.”
