1 Samwiri 12

1 Samwiri n’ayogera eri Isirayiri yenna, ng’agamba nti, “Mpulirizza buli kintu kye muŋŋambye, ne mbateerawo kabaka okubafuga.

Afei, Samuel kasa kyerɛɛ ɔman no bio sɛ, “Deɛ mopɛɛ sɛ meyɛ no mayɛ, mama mo ɔhene.

2 Kaakano mulina kabaka ng’omukulembeze wammwe. Naye nze nkaddiye, mmeze n’envi, era n’abaana bange bali wano nammwe. Mbadde mukulembeze wammwe okuva mu buvubuka bwange n’okutuusa leero.

Matwa me mmammarima ho ayi no, na megyina ha sɛ akɔkoraa tidwono. Masom sɛ mo ɔkannifoɔ firi me mmɔfraase.

3 Nzuuno mu maaso gammwe. Munnumirize ensonga yonna mu maaso ga Mukama ne mu maaso g’oyo gwe yafukako amafuta. Ani gwe nnali ntwalidde ente ye? Oba ani gwe nnali ntwalidde endogoyi ye? Oba ani gwe nnali ndyazaamaanyizza? Oba ani gwe nnali njooze? Oba ani gwe nnali nsabye enguzi? Bwe wabaawo anvunaana mu nsonga yonna nzija kumuliyira.”

Afei, monka nkyerɛ me, ɛberɛ a megyina Awurade ne deɛ wɔasra no wɔ ne din mu anim yi, hwan nantwie anaa nʼafunumu na mawia? Masisi mo mu bi pɛn anaa? Madi mo nya pɛn anaa? Magye adanmudeɛ bi pɛn anaa? Sɛ mayɛ bɔne bi a, monka nkyerɛ me, na mɛtenetene deɛ manyɛ no yie.”

4 Ne baddamu nti, “Totunyagangako newaakubadde okutujooga, wadde okulya enguzi okuva mu mukono gw’omuntu yenna.”

Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Dabi, wonsisii yɛn, na wonnii yɛn nya ɛkwan biara so, na wonnyee adanmudeɛ fua pɛ mpo.”

5 Awo Samwiri n’abaddamu nti, “Mukama ye mujulirwa gye muli, era n’oyo gwe yafukako amafuta mujulirwa leero, nga sirina nsobi yonna mu maaso gammwe.” Ne baddamu nti, “Mujulirwa.”

Samuel kaa sɛ, “Awurade ne ne onipa a wɔasra no no yɛ mʼadansefoɔ sɛ morentumi nka sɛ mabɔ mo korɔno.” Wɔn nyinaa kaa sɛ, “Ampa ara, ɛyɛ nokorɛ!”

6 Samwiri n’agamba abantu nti, “Mukama ye yalonda Musa ne Alooni era n’aggya bajjajjammwe mu Misiri.

Samuel toaa so sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔyii Mose ne Aaron. Ɔno na ɔyii mo agyanom firii Misraim asase so.

7 Kale nno, musseeyo omwoyo mutege amatu mu maaso ga Mukama, eri okubalamula era n’okubajjukiza ebikolwa eby’obutuukirivu Mukama bye yabakolera mmwe ne bajjajjammwe.

Seesei, monnyina ha dinn wɔ Awurade anim ɛberɛ a megu so rekaakae mo nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade ayɛ ama mo ne mo agyanom no.

8 “Yakobo bwe yabeera mu Misiri, bajjajjammwe ne bakaabirira Mukama; Mukama yatuma Musa ne Alooni, abaabaggya mu Misiri, n’abateeka mu kifo kino.

“Ɛberɛ a na Israelfoɔ wɔ Misraim na wɔsu frɛɛ Awurade no, ɔsomaa Mose ne Aaron sɛ, wɔnnyi wɔn mfiri Misraim, na wɔmfa wɔn mmra saa asase yi so.

9 “Naye ne beerabira Mukama Katonda waabwe, kyeyava abatunda mu mukono gwa Sisera omuduumizi w’eggye lya Kazoli, ne mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti, ne mu mukono gwa kabaka wa Mowaabu, abaabalwanyisanga.

“Nanso, ankyɛre biara na nnipa no werɛ firii Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, enti ɔmaa Sisera a ɔyɛ Hasor akodɔm sahene no ne Filistifoɔ ne Moabhene dii wɔn so.

10 Abayisirayiri ne bakaabirira Mukama, nga boogera nti, ‘Twasobya, twava ku Mukama ne tuweereza Babaali ne Baasutoleesi. Naye kaakano tulokole okuva mu mukono gw’abalabe baffe, tunaakuweerezanga.’

Afei, wɔsu frɛɛ Awurade bio, na wɔpaee mu kaa wɔn bɔne sɛ, ‘Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛ yɛatwe yɛn ho afiri Awurade ho, na yɛresom ahoni Baalim ne Astoret. Na sɛ wogye yɛn firi yɛn atamfoɔ nsam a, yɛbɛsom wo, na wo nko ara na yɛbɛsom.’

11 Mukama n’alyoka atuma Yerubbaali, ne Bedani, ne Yefusa ne Samwiri ne babalokola mu mukono gw’abalabe bammwe enjuuyi zonna, ne mutuula mirembe.

Na Awurade somaa Yerub-Baal, Barak, Yefta ne Samuel, na ɔgyee mo firii mo atamfoɔ nsam na mobɛtenaa asomdwoeɛ mu.

12 Naye bwe mwalaba Nakkasi kabaka w’Abamoni ng’abalumba, newaakubadde nga Mukama Katonda wammwe ye yali kabaka wammwe ne muŋŋamba nti, ‘Nedda, ffe twagala kabaka okutufuga.’

“Nanso, mosuroo Amonfoɔ ɔhene Nahas enti, moka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, ‘Dabi, yɛrepɛ ɔhene ama wadi yɛn so’—nanso na Awurade mo Onyankopɔn yɛ mo so ɔhene.

13 Kaakano kabaka gwe mulonze era gwe mwasaba wuuno, era laba Mukama ataddewo kabaka okubafuga.

Afei, mo ɔhene a moayi no nie; deɛ mobisaeɛ no. Hwɛ, Awurade ayɛ mo apɛdeɛ ama mo.

14 Bwe munaatyanga Mukama ne mumuweerezanga, ne mugonderanga eddoboozi lye, ne mutajeemera biragiro bye, mmwe ne kabaka abafuga ne mugobereranga Mukama Katonda wammwe, kinaabanga kirungi.

Sɛ mosuro Awurade, na mosom no, tie nʼasɛm, na sɛ moammu ne mmara so, na mo ne mo ɔhene a ɔdi mo so no nyinaa di Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn akyi a, biribiara bɛyɛ yie.

15 Naye bwe mutaagonderenga Mukama, ne mujeemera ebiragiro bye, omukono gwe gunaalwananga nammwe, nga bwe kyali ku bajjajjammwe.

Na sɛ moantie Awurade, na motia ne mmara a, ne nsa bɛyɛ duru wɔ mo so sɛdeɛ ɛyɛɛ mo agyanom so no.

16 “Kale nno mulindirire mulabe ekintu ekikulu Mukama kyagenda okukola mu maaso gammwe.

“Enti afei, monnyina hɔ dinn, na monhwɛ ade kɛseɛ a Awurade rebɛyɛ.

17 Bino kaakano si biseera bya kukungula ŋŋaano. Naye nzija kusaba Mukama, aweereze okubwatuka n’enkuba, mulyoke mutegeere nga kye mwakola okusaba kabaka kyali kibi mu maaso ga Mukama.”

Monim sɛ saa ɛberɛ yi a ɛyɛ ayuotwaberɛ yi, osuo nntɔ. Mɛma Awurade adwa aprannaa na ama osuo atɔ. Afei mobɛhunu bɔne a moyɛeɛ sɛ mobisaa ɔhene no.”

18 Awo Samwiri n’asaba Mukama, Mukama n’aweereza okubwatuka n’enkuba, abantu bonna ne batya nnyo Mukama ne Samwiri.

Ɛhɔ ara Samuel frɛɛ Awurade, na ɛda no ara, Awurade dwaa aprannaa, tɔɔ osuo. Nnipa no nyinaa suroo Awurade ne Samuel.

19 Awo abantu bonna ne bagamba Samwiri nti, “Tusabire eri Mukama Katonda wo, ffe abaweereza bo, tuleme kufa, kubanga twongedde ku bibi byaffe ebirala byonna, bwe twasabye kabaka.”

Nnipa no nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ Samuel sɛ, “Bɔ Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, mpaeɛ ma wʼasomfoɔ sɛdeɛ yɛrenwuo, na yɛrenyɛ bɔne nka yɛn bɔne ahodoɔ nyinaa ho sɛ yɛabisa ɔhene.”

20 Samwiri n’addamu abantu nti, “Temutya, okukola mwakola ebibi ebyo byonna, naye temuvanga ku Mukama, kaakano mumuweerezenga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna.

Samuel buaa sɛ, “Monnsuro. Moayɛ saa bɔne yi nyinaa bi deɛ, nanso monnnane mo ani mfiri Awurade so, na momfa mo akoma nyinaa nsom Awurade.

21 Temukyukanga okugoberera ebintu ebitaliimu, ebitayinza kubagasa wadde okubawonya, kubanga tebiriimu nsa.

Monnsane nkɔdi ahoni huhuo a wɔrenyɛ mo papa biara, na wɔrentumi nnye mo nkwa no akyi, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn ho nni mfasoɔ.

22 Mukama tagenda kwabulira bantu be, olw’erinnya lye ekkulu, kubanga Mukama yasiima okubafuula ababe.

Esiane ne din kɛseɛ no enti, Awurade rempo ne nkurɔfoɔ. Awurade afa mo sɛ nʼankasa nʼadeɛ.

23 Nze ku lwange, kikafuuwe, okwonoona eri Mukama ne ssibasabira; nnaabalaganga ekkubo ettuufu era eggolokofu.

Na me deɛ, merenyɛ bɔne ntia Awurade sɛ meremmɔ mpaeɛ mma mo. Na mɛkɔ so akyerɛ mo papa ne bɔne.

24 Kyokka mutyenga Mukama era mumuweerezenga n’obwesigwa n’omutima gwammwe gwonna, nga mujjukira ebintu ebikulu bye yabakolera.

Nanso, monhwɛ sɛ mobɛsuro Awurade na moasom no nokorɛm.

25 Naye bwe muneeyongeranga okukola ebibi, mmwe ne kabaka wammwe mulizikirizibwa.”

Na sɛ mokɔ so yɛ bɔne a, wɔbɛsɛe mo ne mo ɔhene nyinaa.”
