1 Samwiri 15
1 Awo Samwiri n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Mukama nze gwe yatuma okukufukako amafuta okuba kabaka w’abantu be Isirayiri, noolwekyo wuliriza obubaka obuva eri Mukama Katonda.
And he said Samuel to Saul me he sent Yahweh to anoint you to king over people his over Israel and therefore listen to [the] voice of [the] words of Yahweh.
2 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna nti, ‘Ndibonereza Abamaleki olw’ekyo kye baakola Isirayiri bwe baabateega nga bayambuka okuva mu Misiri.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts I have paid attention to [that] which it did Amalek to Israel [that] which it set to it on the way when came up it from Egypt.
3 Kaakano genda olumbe Abamaleki obazikiririze ddala, n’ebintu byabwe byonna. Tobasaasira, otta abasajja n’abakazi, abaana n’abato ddala, ente, n’endiga, n’eŋŋamira n’endogoyi.’”
Now go and you will attack Amalek and you will totally destroy all that [belongs] to it and not you must have compassion on it and you will put to death from a man unto a woman from a child and unto a suckling-child from an ox and unto a sheep from a camel and unto a donkey.
4 Awo Sawulo n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja, n’ababalira e Terayimu, nga bawera abaserikale ab’ebigere emitwalo amakumi abiri, n’abalala omutwalo gumu okuva mu Yuda.
And he summoned Saul the people and he mustered them at Telaim two hundred thousand foot soldier[s] and ten thousand with man of Judah.
5 Sawulo n’asemberera ekibuga kya Amaleki n’abateegera mu kiwonvu.
And he came Saul to [the] city of Amalek and he lay in wait in the wadi.
6 N’agamba Abakeeni nti, “Muve mu Bamaleki mugende nneme okubazikiririza awamu nabo, kubanga mwakolera Abayisirayiri bonna ebyekisa bwe bayambuka okuva mu Misiri.” Abakeeni ne basenguka okuva mu Bamaleki.
And he said Saul to the Kenite[s] go depart go down from among [the] Amalekite[s] lest I should destroy you with it and you you did loyalty with all [the] people of Israel when came up they from Egypt and it departed [the] Kenite[s] from among Amalek.
7 Awo Sawulo n’alumba Abamaleki okuviira ddala e Kavira okutuuka e Ssuuli, ekiri ebuvanjuba w’e Misiri.
And he attacked Saul Amalek from Havilah coming you Shur which [is] on [the] face of Egypt.
8 N’awamba Agagi kabaka w’Abamaleki nga mulamu, naye abantu abalala bonna n’abazikiririza ddala n’ekitala.
And he seized Agag [the] king of Amalek alive and all the people he totally destroyed to [the] mouth of [the] sword.
9 Era Sawulo n’eggye ne baleka Agagi nga mulamu, era endiga n’ente, n’ennyana n’abaana b’endiga n’ebyassava, n’ebyo byonna bye baalaba nga bya muwendo, ne batabizikiririza ddala. Naye ebirala byonna ebitaali bya muwendo nga binyoomebwa oba nga binafu, ne babizikiririza ddala.
And he had compassion Saul and the people on Agag and on [the] best of the sheep and the cattle and the second and on the lambs and on all the good and not they were willing to totally destroy them and all the property despised and worthless it they totally destroyed.
10 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Samwiri nti,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Samuel saying.
11 “Nejjusizza okufuula Sawulo kabaka, kubanga avudde kukungoberera, n’atakolera ku biragiro byange.” Samwiri n’anyolwa nnyo, n’akabira Mukama ekiro kyonna.
I regret that I have made king Saul to king for he has turned back from after me and words my not he has carried out and it burned to Samuel and he cried out to Yahweh all the night.
12 Enkeera ku makya Samwiri n’agolokoka n’agenda okusisinkana Sawulo, naye ne bamutegeeza nti, “Sawulo yazze e Kalumeeri gye yeezimbidde ekijjukizo, kyokka kaakano avuddeyo n’aserengeta e Girugaali.”
And he rose early Samuel to meet Saul in the morning and it was told to Samuel saying he came Saul Carmel towards and there! [he was] setting up for himself a monument and he turned and he passed on and he went down Gilgal.
13 Awo Samwiri bwe yamutuukako, Sawulo n’ayogera nti, “Mukama akuwe omukisa. Ngoberedde ebiragiro bya Mukama.”
And he came Samuel to Saul and he said to him Saul [be] blessed you by Yahweh I have carried out [the] word of Yahweh.
14 Naye Samwiri n’amuddamu nti, “Ate okubejjagala okw’endiga n’okuŋooŋa kw’ente bye mpulira biva wa?”
And he said Samuel and what? [is] [the] sound of the sheep this in ears my and [the] sound of the cattle which I [am] hearing.
15 Sawulo n’amuddamu nti, “Abaserikale baaziggye ku Bamaleki. Baaleseewo ente n’endiga ezisinga obulungi okuba ebiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda wo, naye ebirala byonna twabizikiririzza ddala.”
And he said Saul from [the] Amalekite[s] people brought them that it had compassion the people on [the] best of the sheep and the cattle so as to sacrifice [them] to Yahweh God your and the rest we totally destroyed.
16 Awo Samwiri n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Sirika! Ka nkutegeeze Mukama kye yaŋŋambye ekiro.” Sawulo n’amuddamu nti, “Ntegeeza.”
And he said Samuel to Saul be quiet so let me tell to you [that] which he said Yahweh to me this night (and he said *Q(K)*) to him speak.
17 Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Newaakubadde nga wali weeraba ng’oli mutono, tewafuuka mukulu wa bika bya Isirayiri? Mukama yakufukako amafuta okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri.
And he said Samuel ¿ not though [were] small you in own eyes your [the] head of [the] tribes of Israel [are] you and he anointed you Yahweh to king over Israel.
18 Naakutuma omulimu, ng’agamba nti, ‘Genda ozikiririze ddala abalina ebibi abo Abamaleki, obalwanyise okutuusa lw’olibamalirawo ddala.’
And he sent you Yahweh on a journey and he said go and you will totally destroy the sinners Amalek and you will wage war against it until destroy they them.
19 Lwaki tewagondedde ddoboozi lya Mukama? Lwaki mwalulunkanidde omunyago ne mukola ekibi mu maaso ga Mukama?”
And why? not did you listen to [the] voice of Yahweh and did you rush? to the plunder and did you do? the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
20 Sawulo n’addamu Samwiri nti, “Nagondedde eddoboozi lya Mukama, era nagenze ku mulimu Mukama gwe yantumye. Nazikiririzza ddala Abamaleki era ne ndeeta Agagi kabaka waabwe.
And he said Saul to Samuel that I listened to [the] voice of Yahweh and I went on the journey which he sent me Yahweh and I brought Agag [the] king of Amalek and Amalek I totally destroyed.
21 Abaserikale baatute endiga n’ente, ebisinga obulungi ku ebyo ebyali biteekeddwa okuzikirizibwa, babiweeyo eri Mukama Katonda wo e Girugaali.”
And it took the people from the plunder sheep and cattle [the] choicest of the object[s] for destruction to sacrifice [them] to Yahweh God your in Gilgal.
22 Naye Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Mukama asanyukira nnyo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa ne ssaddaaka, okusinga okugondera eddoboozi lya Mukama? Okugonda kusinga ssaddaaka, era n’okuwuliriza kusinga amasavu g’endiga ennume.
And he said Samuel ¿ [does] delight [belong] to Yahweh in burnt offerings and sacrifices like listening to [the] voice of Yahweh here! to obey more than sacrifice [is] good to pay attention more than [the] fat of rams.
23 Kubanga obujeemu buli ng’ekibi eky’okusamira, era n’obukakanyavu buli ng’ekibi eky’okusinza bakatonda abalala. Kubanga ojeemedde ekigambo kya Mukama, naye akugaanye okuba kabaka.”
For [is the] sin of divination rebellion and [is] wickedness and teraphim presumption because you have rejected [the] word of Yahweh and he has rejected you from king.
24 Awo Sawulo n’agamba Samwiri nti, “Nyonoonye. Najeemedde ekiragiro kya Mukama era n’ebigambo byo, kubanga natidde abantu ne ŋŋendera ku bigambo byabwe.
And he said Saul to Samuel I have sinned for I have transgressed [the] mouth of Yahweh and words your for I feared the people and I listened to voice their.
25 Kaakano nkusaba, osonyiwe ekibi kyange, okomewo nange nsobole okusinza Mukama.”
And therefore forgive please sin my and return with me so I may bow down to Yahweh.
26 Naye Samwiri n’amuddamu nti, “Sijja kuddayo naawe kubanga ovudde ku kigambo kya Mukama, ne Mukama akugaanye okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri.”
And he said Samuel to Saul not I will return with you for you have rejected [the] word of Yahweh and he has rejected you Yahweh from being king over Israel.
27 Awo Samwiri bwe yakyuka okugenda, Sawulo n’akwata ekirenge ky’ekyambalo kye, ne kiyulika.
And he turned round Samuel to go and he took hold on [the] skirt of robe his and it tore.
28 Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Mukama akuyuzizzaako obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri leero, n’abuwa omu ku baliraanwa bo akusinga.
And he said to him Samuel he has torn Yahweh [the] kingdom of Israel from with you this day and he will give it to neighbor your good more than you.
29 Oyo ayitibwa Ekitiibwa kya Isirayiri talimba ate takyusakyusa kirowoozo kye, kubanga si muntu nti anaakyusa ekirowoozo kye.”
And also [the] eminence of Israel not he will deal falsely and not he will regret for not [is] a man he to regret.
30 Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Nyonoonye, naye nzisaamu ekitiibwa mu maaso g’abakadde b’abantu bange, ne mu maaso ga Isirayiri, oddeyo nange, nsinze Mukama Katonda wo.”
And he said I have sinned now honor me please before [the] elders of people my and before Israel and return with me and I will bow down to Yahweh God your.
31 Awo Samwiri n’addayo ne Sawulo, Sawulo n’asinza Mukama.
And he turned back Samuel after Saul and he bowed down Saul to Yahweh.
32 Samwiri n’alagira nti, “Mundeetere Agagi kabaka w’Abamaleki.” Agagi n’ajja gy’ali ng’akankana naye ng’agamba mu mutima gwe nti, “Mazima ddala obubalagaze bw’okufa buyise.”
And he said Samuel bring near to me Agag [the] king of Amalek and he came to him Agag bonds and he said Agag truly it has departed [the] bitterness of death.
33 Naye Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Ng’ekitala kyo bwe kyaleetera abakazi abangi obutaba na baana, ne nnyoko talibeera na mwana.” Awo Samwiri n’atemaatema Agagi n’amuttira mu maaso ga Mukama e Girugaali.
And he said Samuel just as it has made childless women sword your so she will become childless from women mother your and he cut to pieces Samuel Agag before Yahweh in Gilgal.
34 Samwiri n’alyoka agenda e Laama, naye Sawulo ye n’agenda ewuwe mu Gibea ekya Sawulo.
And he went Samuel Ramah towards and Saul he went up to house his Gibeah of Saul.
35 Samwiri yanakuwala nnyo olwa Sawulo, era teyaddayo kulabagana ne Sawulo okutuusa Samwiri lwe yafa. Mukama n’anyolwa olw’okufuula Sawulo kabaka wa Isirayiri.
And not he repeated Samuel to see Saul until [the] day of death his for he mourned Samuel concerning Saul and Yahweh he regretted that he had made king Saul over Israel.
