< Luo Samuel 1 >
1 Tukun Saul el misa, David el foloko ke el tuh kutangla mwet Amalek, na el muta in acn Ziklag ke len luo.
Emva kokufa kukaSawuli, uDavida wabuya evela ekunqobeni ama-Amaleki wahlala eZikhilagi insuku ezimbili.
2 Ke len toko ah, mwet fusr se tuku liki nien aktuktuk lal Saul. El tuh seya nuknuk lal ac sang fohkfok nu fin sifal in akkalemye asor lal. El som nu yorol David ac srimi nwe infohk uh in akfulatyal.
Ngosuku lwesithathu kwafika umuntu evela ezihonqweni zikaSawuli, izigqoko zakhe zidabukile njalo egcwele uthuli ekhanda lakhe. Kwathi esefikile kuDavida waziwisela phansi emhlonipha.
3 David el siyuk sel, “Kom tuku ya me?” El topuk, “Nga kaingla liki nien aktuktuk lun mwet Israel.”
UDavida wambuza wathi, “Uvela ngaphi?” Yena waphendula wathi, “Ngibalekile ezihonqweni zabako-Israyeli.”
4 David el fahk, “Fahk nu sik lah mea sikyak.” Na el topuk, “Mwet mweun lasr ah kaingla liki mweun ah, ac pukanten mwet lasr anwuki. Saul ac Jonathan wen natul, wi pac misa.”
UDavida wabuza wathi, “Kutheni? Ngitshela.” Yena wathi, “Abantu babalekile empini. Inengi labo lifile. USawuli lendodana yakhe uJonathani labo bafile?”
5 Na David el fahk, “Kom etu fuka lah Saul ac Jonathan misa?”
UDavida wasesithi kulelojaha elamlethela umbiko, “Wazi njani ukuthi uSawuli lendodana yakhe uJonathani bafile?”
6 El topuk, “Nga tuh muta Fineol Gilboa, ac nga liye ke Saul el fungyang nu fin osra natul ah, na chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse lun mwet lokoalok ah apkuranyang nu yorol.
Ijaha lelo lathi, “Kwenzakele ukuthi mina kade ngiphezu kweNtaba iGilibhowa ngabona uSawuli eyame umkhonto wakhe, izinqola zempi labagadi bamabhiza sebebanga kuye.
7 Na el forma twe liyeyuyak, ac el pangonyu. Na nga fahk, ‘Mea?’
Uthe etshibilika wangibona, wasengibiza, mina ngathi, ‘Kuyini engingakwenza?’
8 Na el siyuk lah su nga uh, na nga fahk lah nga mwet Amalek.
Ungibuzile wathi, ‘Ungubani wena na?’ Ngiphendule ngathi, ‘NgingumʼAmaleki.’
9 Na el fahk, ‘Fahsru ac uniyuwi! Nga arulana kineta, ac nga apkuran in misa.’
Wasesithi kimi, ‘Sondela eduze ungibulale! Sengiseduze lokufa, kodwa ngisaphila.’
10 Ouinge nga kalukyang nu yorol ac unilya, mweyen nga etu lah el ac na misa na el fin putatyang nu fac. Na nga eisla tefuro lal liki sifal, ac mwe naweyuk ke paol, pa nga use nu sum inge.”
Ngakho ngisondele kuye ngambulala, ngoba ngazile ukuthi emva kwalokho ubengeke aphile. Njalo ngithethe umqhele obusekhanda lakhe lesongo ebelisengalweni yakhe okuyikho engikulethe lapha enkosini yami.”
11 David el arulana asor ac seya nuknuk lal, ac mwet lal nukewa oru oapana.
Lapho-ke uDavida labantu bonke ababelaye babamba izigqoko zabo bazidabula.
12 Elos asor ac tung ac eoksra nwe ke ekela kacl Saul ac Jonathan, oayapa ke Israel, mwet lun LEUM GOD, mweyen arulana pukanten mwet anwuki ke mweun ah.
Babakhalela, babalilela, babazilela kwaze kwahlwa uSawuli lendodana yakhe uJonathani kanye lebutho likaThixo lendlu ka-Israyeli, ngoba babebulewe ngenkemba.
13 Na David el siyuk sin mwet fusr se su use pweng se inge nu sel, “Kom mwet ya?” El topuk, “Nga mwet Amalek, tusruktu nga muta facl sum uh.”
UDavida wasesithi ejaheni elalimlethele umbiko, “Wena ungowangaphi na?” Lona laphendula lathi, “Ngiyindodana yezizweni, umʼAmaleki.”
14 David el siyuk sel, “Kom ku tia sangeng in uniya tokosra se su sulosolla sin LEUM GOD?”
UDavida waselibuza esithi, “Kungani ungesabanga ukuphakamisa isandla sakho ukuba ubulale ogcotshiweyo kaThixo na?”
15 Na David el pangonma sie mwet lal ac fahk, “Unilya!” Ac mwet sac sringilya mwet Amalek sac, ac el misa.
UDavida wabiza omunye wabantu bakhe wathi, “Sondela umgongode!” Ngakho wamgongoda wafa.
16 Ac David el fahk nu sin mwet Amalek sac, “Misa lom ma sum sifacna. Kom sifacna sot mwatum ke kom fahkak lah pwaye kom uniya sie su LEUM GOD El sulela in tokosra.”
Ngoba uDavida wayethe kuye, “Igazi lakho kalibe phezu kwekhanda lakho. Umlomo wakho ufakaze okubi ngawe lapho wena uthe, ‘Ngimbulele ogcotshiweyo kaThixo.’”
17 David el onkakin on in eoksra se inge kacl Saul ac Jonathan,
UDavida walila isililo lesi ngoSawuli lendodana yakhe uJonathani,
18 ac el sapkin in lutiyuk nu sin mwet Judah. (Simla tari in [Book in Jashar].)
walaya ukuthi abantu bakoJuda basifundiswe isililo sedandili lesi (silotshiwe eNcwadini kaJashari):
19 “Fin tohktok lun Israel, mwet kol lasr misa we! Mwet mweun pulaiklana lasr elos ikori we!
“Udumo lwakho, We Israyeli, lubulewe ezingqongweni zakho. Yeka ukufa kwamaqhawe!
20 Nimet fahkak nu in acn Gath, Ku ke inkanek in Ashkelon. Nimet oru tuh mutan Philistia in pwar; Nimet lela tuh an nutin mwet pegan in enganak.
Lingabokutsho eGathi, lingakumemezeli ezindleleni zase-Ashikheloni, hlezi amadodakazi amaFilistiya athabe, hlezi amadodakazi abangasokanga athokoze.
21 “Lela in wangin af ku aunfong putat nu fin tohktok Gilboa; Lela in wangin fokin ima we pacl nukewa! Mwe mwekin se lah mwe loang lun mwet pulaik lasr in oan we; Mwe loang lal Saul tia sifil mosrweyuk.
We zintaba zaseGilibhowa, kalingabi lamazolo loba izulu, kumbe amasimu athela amabele eminikelo. Ngoba khonapho ihawu leqhawe langcoliswa, ihawu likaSawuli, lingasagcotshwa ngamafutha.
22 Pisr natul Jonathan uniya mwet lokoalok puspis, Osra natul Saul tia etu pakoten — Sringilya mwet fokoko, ac uniya mwet lokoalok.
Egazini lababuleweyo, enyameni yamaqhawe umtshoko kaJonathani kawuphendukanga, umtshoko kaSawuli kawuphendukanga ungasuthanga.
23 “Saul ac Jonathan, wolana ac saok; Tukeni ke moul, tukeni ke misa; Mui liki eagle, fokoko liki lion.
USawuli loJonathani, ekuphileni babethandeka bengababukekayo, lekufeni kabehlukaniswanga. Babelesiqubu kulengqungqulu, belamandla kulezilwane.
24 “Mutan Israel, kowos in mwemelil kacl Saul! El nukumkowosyang ke nuknuk srusra yohk molo, Ac nawekowos ke mwe yun ac gold.
Awu madodakazi ako-Israyeli, mlileleni uSawuli, owaligqokisa okubomvu lokuhle kakhulu, owacecisa izembatho zenu ngemiceciso yegolide.
25 “Mwet mweun pulaik ikori tari, Anwuki elos ke mweun. Jonathan el misa oan fin tohktok uh.
Yeka ukufa kwamaqhawe empini! UJonathani ulele efile ezingqongweni zakho.
26 “Nga arulana asor keim, Jonathan, ma lik; Kom tuh arulana saok sik! Fuka lupan woiyen lungse lom nu sik, Wo liki lungse lun sie mutan.
Ngilusizi ngawe Jonathani, mfowethu; ubuthandeka kakhulu kimi. Ukungithanda kwakho kade kumangalisa, kumangalisa okudlula okwabesifazane.
27 “Mwet mweun pulaik ikori tari, Mwe mweun natulos sisila ac wanginla sripa.”
Yeka ukufa kwamaqhawe! Izikhali zempi zitshabalele!”
