Samueli ankatumikira Yehova moyangʼaniridwa ndi Eli. Masiku amenewo mawu a Yehova sankamveka pafupipafupi. Kuona zinthu mʼmasomphenya sikunkachitikanso kawirikawiri.
2 Mu kiseera ekyo, Eri eyali akaddiye, n’amaaso ge nga gayimbadde, yali awumuddeko mu kisenge kye.
Tsiku lina Eli, amene maso anali ofowoka ndi kuti sankatha kuona bwino, anagona pa malo ake.
3 Ettabaaza ya Katonda yali tennazikira nga ne Samwiri yeebase mu yeekaalu ya Mukama ng’aliraanye essanduuko ya Katonda we yali.
Nthawiyi nʼkuti nyale ya Mulungu isanazimitsidwe. Samueli anali gone mu Nyumba ya Yehova, kumene kunali Bokosi la Chipangano cha Mulungu.
4 Awo Mukama n’akoowoola Samwiri nti, “Samwiri, Samwiri!” N’addamu nti, “Nze nzuuno.”
Yehova anayitana Samueli. Iye anayankha kuti, “Wawa.”
5 N’adduka n’agenda ewa Eri n’amugamba nti, “Nze nzuuno, ompise.” Naye Eri n’amuddamu nti, “Sikuyise, ddayo weebake.”
Ndipo iyeyo anathamangira kwa Eli ndipo anati, “Ndabwera ndamva kuyitana.” Koma Eli anati, “Ine sindinakuyitane, bwerera kagone.” Ndipo iye anapita kukagona.
6 Mukama n’addamu n’amuyita, “Samwiri!” Samwiri n’asituka n’agenda eri Eri, n’amugamba nti, “Nze nzuuno, ompise.” Naye Eri n’amuddamu nti, “Sikuyise, mutabani, ddayo weebake.”
Yehova anayitananso, “Samueli!” Ndipo Samueli anadzuka ndi kupita kwa Eli nati, “Ndabwera popeza ndamva mukundiyitana.” Eli nati, “Mwana wanga, ine sindinakuyitane, bwerera kagone.”
7 Samwiri yali tannategeera nga Mukama y’amuyita, nga n’ekigambo kya Mukama tekimubikkulirwanga.
Nthawiyi nʼkuti Samueli asanadziwe Yehova ndipo Mawu a Yehova nʼkuti asanawululidwe kwa iye.
8 Mukama n’addamu n’akoowoola Samwiri omulundi ogwokusatu, Samwiri n’asituka n’agenda eri Eri n’amugamba nti, “Nzuuno, ompise.” Awo Eri n’ategeera nti Mukama y’ayita omuvubuka.
Yehova anayitananso Samueli kachitatu ndipo Samueli anadzuka ndikupita kwa Eli ndipo anati, “Ndabwera popeza mwandiyitana ndithu.” Apo Eli anazindikira kuti Yehova ndiye ankayitana mnyamatayo.
9 Eri kyeyava agamba Samwiri nti, “Genda weebake, bw’anaddamu okukuyita, oddamu nti, Yogera, Mukama, kubanga omuweereza wo awulira.” Awo Samwiri n’agenda n’agalamira mu kifo kye.
Tsono Eli anamuwuza Samueli kuti, “Pita ukagone ndipo akakuyitananso ukanene kuti, ‘Yankhulani Yehova, pakuti mtumiki wanu ndikumvetsera.’” Choncho Samueli anapita ndi kukagona pamalo pake.
10 Mukama n’ajja nate, n’amukoowoola ng’olubereberye nti, “Samwiri! Samwiri!” Samwiri n’addamu nti, “Yogera, Ayi Mukama kubanga omuweereza wo awulira.”
Yehova anabwera ndi kuyima pomwepo, ndi kuyitana monga nthawi zina zija, “Samueli! Samueli!” Ndipo Samueli anayankha, “Yankhulani, pakuti mtumiki wanu akumvetsera.”
11 Awo Mukama n’agamba Samwiri nti, “Laba, ndikumpi okukola ekigambo mu Isirayiri ekirireetera amatu ga buli muntu alikiwulira okuwaawaala.
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Samueli, “Taona, patsala pangʼono kuti ndichite chinthu china mu Israeli chimene chidzadabwitsa aliyense amene adzamve.
12 Ku lunaku olwo ndituukiriza ebyo byonna bye nnali njogedde ku nnyumba ya Eri.
Tsiku limenelo ndidzachitadi zonse zimene ndinayankhula zokhudza banja la Eli kuyambira poyamba mpaka pomaliza.
13 Namulabula nti ndibonereza ennyumba ye ennaku zonna, olw’obutali butuukirivu bwa batabani be abavvoola Katonda, n’akimanya naye n’atabaziyiza.
Pakuti ndinamudziwitsa kuti Ine ndikhoza kulanga banja lake kwamuyaya chifukwa cha zoyipa zimene ana ake ankadziyipitsa nazo. Iye ankadziwa zimenezi koma osawaletsa.
14 Kyenva ndayirira ennyumba ya Eri nga ŋŋamba nti, ‘Omusango oguli ku nnyumba ya Eri tegulisonyiyibwa na ssaddaaka newaakubadde ekiweebwayo ennaku zonna.’”
Nʼchifukwa chake ndinalumbira kuti, ‘Zoyipa zimene banja la Eli linandichita sizidzafafanizidwa mpaka muyaya ngakhale adzapereke nsembe kapena zopereka zina.’”
15 Samwiri n’addayo n’agalamira okutuusa obudde lwe bwakya, n’aggulawo enzigi ez’ennyumba ya Mukama. N’atya okutegeeza Eri okwolesebwa kwe yafuna,
Samueli anagona mpaka mmawa. Atadzuka anatsekula zitseko za Nyumba ya Yehova. Iye anachita mantha kumuwuza Eli za masomphenya ake.
16 naye Eri n’amuyita n’amugamba nti, “Samwiri, mwana wange.” N’addamu nti, “Nze nzuuno.”
Koma Eli anamuyitana nati, “Samueli mwana wanga.” Samueli anayankha kuti, “Wawa.”
17 Eri n’amubuuza nti, “Kiki kye yakugambye? Tokinkisa. Katonda akuleeteko ekibonerezo eky’amaanyi bw’onoobaako ekigambo kyonna ky’onkisizza ku ebyo bye yakugambye.”
Tsono Eli anafunsa kuti, “Yehova wakuwuza chiyani? Usandibisire. Mulungu akulange ndithu ngati undibisira chilichonse cha zimene wakuwuza.”
18 Awo Samwiri n’amutegeeza buli kimu, n’atabaako kigambo na kimu kye yamukisa. Eri n’ayogera nti, “Ye Mukama, akole nga bw’asiima.”
Choncho Samueli anamuwuza zonse, sanamubisire kalikonse. Ndipo Eli anati, “Iye ndi Yehova, mulekeni achite chimene chamukomera.”
19 Mukama n’abeera wamu ne Samwiri, n’akula. Buli kigambo kye yayogera ku nnyumba ya Eri ne kituukirira.
Yehova anali ndi Samueli pamene amakula, ndipo zonse zimene ankayankhula zinkachitikadi.
20 Isirayiri yenna okuva mu Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba ne bategeera nga Samwiri ateekeddwawo okuba nnabbi wa Mukama.
Ndipo Aisraeli onse kuyambira ku dera la Dani mpaka ku Beeriseba anazindikira kuti Yehova analozadi chala pa Samueli kuti akhale mneneri wake.
21 Mukama ne yeeyongeranga okweyolekera Samwiri mu Siiro.
Yehova anapitiriza kuoneka ku Silo, ndipo kumeneko anadziwulula yekha kwa Samueli mwa mawu ake.
