1 USamuyeli wasethatha umfuma wamafutha wawathela ekhanda likaSawuli wasemanga, esithi, “Uthixo kakugcobanga ukuba ngumbusi welifa lakhe na?
Eka Samuel nokawo tungʼ mar mo mi oolo ewi Saulo eka nonyodhe mowacho niya, “Donge Jehova Nyasaye osewiri mondo ibed jatelo ne joge moyiero.
2 Ekusukeni kwakho kimi lamhla, uzahlangana lamadoda amabili eduze kwengcwaba likaRasheli, eliseZeliza esemngceleni wakoBhenjamini. Azakuthi kuwe, ‘Obabhemi obuyebadinga sebetholakele. Khathesi uyihlo kasacabangi ngabo kodwa usekhathazeka ngawe. Uyabuza esithi, “Ngizakwenzanjani ngendodana yami na?”’
Kawuononi ka iseweya ibiro romo gi ji ariyo machiegni gi liend Rael e gwengʼ Zelza e tongʼ jo-Benjamin. Gibiro wachoni ni, ‘Punde mane iwuok idhi dwaro oseyudi. Kendo wuonu oseweyo parogi koro chunye chandore ni wachne kopenjo niya, “Abiro timo angʼo ne wach wuodani?”’
3 Uzahamba-ke usuka lapho uze ufike esihlahleni esikhulu saseThabhori. Amadoda amathathu aya kuNkulunkulu eBhetheli azahlangana lawe khonapho. Enye izathwala amazinyane embuzi amathathu, enye izinkwa ezintathu lenye umgodla wewayini.
“Eka ibiro wuok kanyo midhi nyaka yath maduongʼ man Tabor. Ji adek mawuotho kadhi Bethel ir Nyasaye norom kodi kanyo. Achiel kuomgi biro biro kotingʼo nyidiek adek, to machielo biro tingʼo makati adek, to machielo to otingʼo ndede mar divai.
4 Azakubingelela akuphe izinkwa ezimbili, ozazamukela kuwo.
Gibiro mosi kendo miyi makati ariyo, mibiro kawo kuomgi.
5 Emva kwalokho, uzakuya eGibhiya kaNkulunkulu lapho okulesilindo sebutho lamaFilistiya khona. Lapho usubanga emzini, uzahlangana lodwendwe lwabaphrofethi besehla bevela endaweni ephakemeyo, phambi kwabo kutshaywa imiqangala lamagedla lemifece kanye lemihubhe, njalo bazakuba bephrofetha.
“Bangʼ mano ibiro dhi Gibea miluongo ni Got mar Nyasaye kama nitie kambi mar jo-Filistia. Ka ichopo machiegni gi dala to ibiro romo gi oganda jonabi kalor koa kar lemo kotelnegi gi joma goyo orutu, gi tamborin, asili gi nyatiti, kendo jonabi biro biro ka gikoro wach.
6 UMoya kaThixo uzakwehlela phezu kwakho ngamandla, lawe uzaphrofetha labo, njalo uzaguqulwa ube ngomunye umuntu.
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobi kuomi gi teko, inikor kaachiel kodgi kendo noloki mibed ngʼato mopogore.
7 Izibonakaliso lezi zingagcwaliseka, yenza loba yini okubona kufanele ukuba ukwenze, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulawe.
Ka ranyisi otimore to mondo itim atima gima lweti oyudo ni onego tim; nikech Nyasaye ni kodi.
8 Hamba ungandulele eGiligali. Ngizakuza kuwe impela ngizenikela umhlatshelo weminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yobuzalwane. Kodwa kuzamele ulinde insuku eziyisikhombisa ngize ngifike kuwe ngikutshele okumele ukwenze.”
“Tel nyima idhi Gilgal. Chutho abiro lor ka abiro iri mondo atim misango miwangʼo pep kod misengini mag lalruok, to nyaka ine ni irita kuom ndalo abiriyo mondo abi anyisi gima onego itim.”
9 Kwathi uSawuli ephenduka esesuka kuSamuyeli, uNkulunkulu waguqula inhliziyo kaSawuli, njalo zonke izibonakaliso lezi zagcwaliseka mhlalokho.
Kane Saulo oseweyo Samuel, Nyasaye ne oloko chuny Saulo, kendo ranyisi duto nochopo kare chiengʼno.
10 Bathi befika eGibhiya, udwendwe lwabaphrofethi lwabahlangabeza; uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehlela phezu kwakhe ngamandla, laye wahlanganyela ekuphrofitheni kwabo.
Kane gichopo Gibea, oganda mar jonabi noromone, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro mopongʼe gi teko eka nochako koro wach kodgi.
11 Kwathi labo ababevele bemazi bembona esephrofitha labaphrofethi, babuzana besithi, “Kuyini kanti lokhu osekwenzakale endodaneni kaKhishi? USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
Eka joma ne ongʼeye kane onene ka okoro gi jonabi, negipenjore kendgi niya, “Ma to en angʼo matimore ne wuod Kish? Saulo bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
12 Umuntu owayehlala lapho waphendula wathi, “Uyise wabo ngubani na?” Ngakho kwaba yisitsho ukuthi: “USawuli laye ungomunye wabaphrofethi na?”
To ngʼat moro modak e gwengʼno nomedo dwoko kopenjo niya, “Wuon-gi to en ngʼa?” Omiyo wachni nolokore ngero niya, “Saulo-ni bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
13 Kwathi uSawuli eseyekele ukuphrofetha, wasesiya endaweni ephakemeyo.
Kane Saulo osetieko koro noidho mobet e kar lemo.
14 Ngalesosikhathi uyise omncane kaSawuli wambuza kanye lenceku yakhe wathi, “Kanti kade lingaphi?” USawuli waphendula wathi, “Kade sidinga obabhemi. Kodwa kuthe sibona ukuthi kabatholakali, sasesisiya kuSamuyeli.”
Eka owad gi wuon Saulo nopenjogi niya, “Ne pod un kanye?” Ne odwoko niya, “Ne wadwaro punde, to kane waneno ni gitamowa yudo eka wadhi ir Samuel.”
15 Uyise omncane kaSawuli wasesithi, “Ngitshela ukuthi uSamuyeli utheni kuwe.”
Owad gi wuon Saulo nowachone niya, “Nyisa gima Samuel nowachonu.”
16 USawuli waphendula wathi, “Uqinise kithi ukuthi obabhemi sebebonakele.” Kodwa kamtshelanga uyise omncane okwakutshiwo nguSamuyeli ngobukhosi.
Saulo nodwoke niya, “Ne owachonwa malongʼo ni punde ne oseyudo.” To ne ok onyise gima Samuel ne owacho kuom wach bedo ruoth.
17 USamuyeli wabizela abantu bako-Israyeli kuThixo eMizipha
Samuel noluongo oganda jo-Israel duto Mizpa e nyim Jehova Nyasaye,
18 wathi kubo, “Nanku okutshiwo yiThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: ‘Ngakhupha u-Israyeli eGibhithe, njalo ngalikhulula esandleni seGibhithe lakuyo yonke imibuso eyayilincindezela.’
mowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ne agolo Israel koa Misri, kendo ne aresou e teko mar loch Misri kod pinjeruodhi duto mane thirou.’
19 Kodwa khathesi selimalile uNkulunkulu wenu, olihlengayo ezingozini zenu zonke lasezinsizini. Njalo selithe, ‘Hatshi, sibekele inkosi ezasibusa.’ Ngakho-ke khathesi zibonakaliseni phambi kukaThixo ngezizwana zenu langezinsendo zenu.”
To koro useweyo Nyasachu, ma resou e masicheu gi chandruoku. Ma usewacho ni, ‘Ooyo miwa ruodhwa.’ Omiyo sani suduru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kuchanoru e ogandau kod e dhoutu.”
20 Kwathi uSamuyeli esezilethe eduze zonke izizwana zako-Israyeli, isizwana sikaBhenjamini sakhethwa.
Kane Samuel okelo ogendini duto mag Israel machiegni, to oganda mar Benjamin ema ne oyier.
21 Emva kwalokho waletha isizwana sikaBhenjamini phambili, usendo ngosendo, kwakhethwa usendo lukaMathiri. Ekucineni kwakhethwa uSawuli, indodana kaKhishi. Kodwa kwathi sebemdinga akaze abonakala.
Eka nokelo oganda mar Benjamin nyime, kaluwore gi dhoot ka dhoot, mine oyier dhood Matri. Mogik ne oyier Saulo wuod Kish. To kane gidware, to ne ok oyude.
22 Ngakho babuza njalo kuThixo bathi, “Umuntu lo uke wafika lapha na?” UThixo wathi, “Ye, usezifihle phakathi kwezimpahla.”
Eka negimedo penjo wach kuom Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ngʼatni bende osebiro ka koso?” Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Ee, osepondo e kind misike.”
23 Bagijima bayamkhipha, njalo kwathi esemi phakathi kwabantu, wayemude kulabo bonke.
Negiringo ma giome, kane ochungʼ e dier oganda to ne obor ma ji moko ne gik mana e goke.
24 USamuyeli wasesithi ebantwini bonke, “Liyambona yini umuntu osekhethwe nguThixo? Kakho lamunye onjengaye phakathi kwabantu bonke bako-Israyeli.” Abantu baklabalala besithi, “Impilo ende enkosini!”
Samuel nowachone ji duto niya, “Bende uneno ngʼat ma Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero? Onge ngʼama chalo kode kuom ji duto.” Eka ji nokok niya, “Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa!”
25 USamuyeli wachaza ebantwini imithetho yobukhosi. Wayiloba emqulwini wayibeka phambi kukaThixo. Emva kwalokho wabachitha abantu, ngulowo lalowo waya emzini wakhe.
Samuel nolero ne ji chike mag bedo ruoth. Nondikogi e kitabu mokano e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Samuel ne ogonyo ji mondo ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e dalane.
26 USawuli laye waya kibo eGibhiya ephelekezelwa ngabantu abangamaqhawe uNkulunkulu ayethinte inhliziyo zabo.
Saulo bende nodhi dalagi man Gibea, ka en gi joma thuondi mane osemul chunygi gi Nyasaye.
27 Kodwa ezinye izidlwangudlwangu zathi, “Umuntu lo angasikhulula kanjani na?” Zameyisa kazaze zamlethela zipho. Kodwa uSawuli wazithulela.
To jomoko ma acheje nowacho niya, “Ere kaka ngʼatni nyalo resowa?” Negi chaye mine ok gikelone mich. To Saulo nolingʼ mos.
