1 USamuyeli 12
1 USamuyeli wathi kubo bonke abako-Israyeli, “Ngikuzwile konke elikukhulumileyo kimi njalo sengilibekele inkosi.
Saamuʼeel Israaʼeloota hundaan akkana jedhe; “Kunoo ani waan isin naan jettan hunda dhagaʼeera; mootii isin irratti moosiseera.
2 Khathesi selilenkosi engumkhokheli wenu. Mina sengiluphele lenwele sezimpunga, lamadodana ami lilawo khonapha. Kade ngingumkhokheli wenu kusukela ebutsheni bami kuze kube lamhla.
Nama mootii taʼee isin hoogganus argattaniirtu. Ani dulloomee arrii baaseera; ilmaan koo kunoo isin wajjin jiru. Ani ijoollummaa kootii jalqabee hamma harʼaatti isin hoogganeera.
3 Ngikhonapha. Fakazani okubi ngami phambi kukaThixo logcotshiweyo wakhe. Ngubani engake ngathatha inkabi yakhe na? Ngubani engake ngathatha ubabhemi wakhe na? Ngubani engake ngamqilibezela? Ngubani engake ngamncindezela na? Kukwezikabani izandla engake ngamukela isivalamlomo ukuba ngivale amehlo ami na? Nxa ngake ngenza okunye kwalokhu, ngizakubuyisela.”
Ani asan jira; isinis fuula Waaqayyootii fi fuula mooticha inni dibee duratti dhugaa natti baʼaa. Ani sangaa eenyuun fudhadhe? Ani harree eenyuun fudhadhe? Ani eenyun gowwoomse? Ani eenyun cunqurse? Ittiin ija koo jaamsuuf ani eenyu harkaan mattaʼaa fudhadhe? Ani yoon fudhadhee jiraadhe isiniif nan deebisa.”
4 Baphendula bathi, “Kawuzange usiqilibezele loba usincindezele. Kawuthathanga lutho esandleni somuntu.”
Isaanis deebisanii, “Ati nu hin gowwoomsine yookaan nu hin cunqursine. Nama tokko harkaa iyyuu waan tokko illee hin fudhanne” jedhan.
5 USamuyeli wasesithi kubo, “Uthixo ungufakazi umelane lani, logcotshiweyo wakhe ungufakazi ngalelilanga, ukuthi kalitholanga lutho esandleni sami.” Bona bathi, “Yena ungufakazi.”
Saamuʼeel immoo, “Akka isin waan tokko illee harka kootti hin argatin Waaqayyo isinitti dhugaa baʼa; dibamaan isaas harʼa dhugaa baʼa” isaaniin jedhe. Isaanis, “Inni dhuga baʼaa dha” jedhan.
6 USamuyeli wasesithi ebantwini, “NguThixo owakhetha uMosi lo-Aroni wakhupha oyihlomkhulu eGibhithe.
Ergasiis Saamuʼeel namootaan akkana jedhe; “Kan Musee fi Aroonin dibee abbootii keessan biyya Gibxii baase Waaqayyoo dha.
7 Khathesi-ke, manini khonapha, ngoba ngizamelana lani ngobufakazi phambi kukaThixo ngazozonke izenzo ezilungileyo uThixo owazenzela lina laboyihlo.
Egaa waaʼee hojii qajeelaa kan Waaqayyo isinii fi abbootii keessaniif hojjete hunda akka ani fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isinitti falmuuf as dhaabadhaa.
8 Emva kokuba uJakhobe esefikile eGibhithe, bakhalela usizo kuThixo, uThixo wasethuma uMosi lo-Aroni, abakhupha okhokho benu eGibhithe bazabahlalisa kule indawo.
“Yeroo Yaaqoob biyya Gibxi seenetti abbootiin keessan Waaqayyootti iyyatan; Waaqayyos Musee fi Aroon warra abbootii keessan biyya Gibxii baasanii iddoo kana qubachiisan erge.
9 Kodwa bamkhohlwa uThixo uNkulunkulu wabo; ngakho wabanikela esandleni sikaSisera, umlawuli webutho laseHazori, lasezandleni zamaFilistiya kanye lasenkosini yamaMowabi, balwa labo.
“Isaan garuu Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii irraanfatan; kanaaf inni dabarsee harka Siisaaraa ajajaa waraana Haazooriitti, Filisxeemotaa fi mootii Moʼaabitti isaan gurgure; jarris waraana itti banan.
10 Bakhala kuThixo bathi, ‘Sonile, simdelile uThixo sakhonza oBhali labo-Ashithorethi. Kodwa khathesi ake usikhulule ezandleni zezitha zethu, sizakukhonza.’
Isaanis Waaqayyotti iyyatanii, ‘Nu cubbuu hojjenneerra; Waaqayyoon dhiifnee Baʼaalii fi Ashtooretin tajaajilleerra. Amma garuu harka diinota keenyaatii nu baasi; nus si tajaajilla’ jedhan.
11 Lapho-ke uThixo wathuma uJerubhi-Bhali, loBhedani, loJeftha kanye loSamuyeli, walikhulula ezandleni zezitha zenu inxa zonke, yikho lahlala livikelekile.
Waaqayyo Yerub-Baʼaalin, Bedaanin, Yiftaa fi Saamuʼeelin ergee akka isin nagaan jiraattaniif karaa hundaan harka diinota keessaniitii isin baase.
12 Kodwa kwathi lapho libona ukuthi uNahashi inkosi yama-Amoni wayesizalihlasela, lathi kimi, ‘Hatshi, sifuna inkosi yokusibusa,’ lanxa uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu wayeyinkosi yenu.
“Yommuu akka Naahaash mootiin Amoonotaa isinitti dhufe argitanitti garuu, Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan mootii keessan taʼu iyyuu isin, ‘Lakki; nu mootii nu bulchu barbaannaa’ jettan.
13 Khathesi nansi inkosi eliyikhethileyo, yona elayicelayo; khangelani, uThixo uselibekele inkosi phezu kwenu.
Ammas mootiin isin gaafattanii fi filattan kunoo ti! Waaqayyo mootii isin irratti moosiseera.
14 Nxa limesaba uThixo limkhonze njalo limlalele lingahlamukeli imilayo yakhe, njalo nxa lina kanye lenkosi elibusayo lilandela uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu, kuhle!
Yoo isin Waaqayyoon sodaattan, yoo isa tajaajiltan, yoo isaaf ajajamtanii fi yoo ajaja isaatti finciluu baattan, yoo hundi keessanii fi mootiin isin irratti moosifame sun Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan faana buutan gaarii dha!
15 Kodwa nxa uThixo lingamlaleli, njalo nxa lihlamukela imilayo yakhe, isandla sakhe sizamelana lani, njengoba sasimelane laboyihlo.
Yoo isin Waaqayyoof ajajamuu baattanii ajaja isaatti finciltan akkuma abbootii keessanitti kaʼe sana harki isaa isinittis ni kaʼa.
16 Khathesi-ke manini lithule libone into enkulu uThixo asezayenza phambi kwamehlo enu!
“Egaa jabaadhaa dhaabadhaatii waan guddaa Waaqayyo fuula keessan duratti godhu kana ilaalaa!
17 Kanti khathesi akusisikhathi sokuvuna ingqoloyi na? Ngizakhuleka kuThixo ukuba athumele umdumo lezulu. Njalo lizabona ukuthi yinto embi njani elayenzayo emehlweni kaThixo lapho licela inkosi.”
Amma yeroo itti qamadiin haamamuu mitii? Ani akka inni qaqawweessaa fi bokkaa erguuf Waaqayyoon nan kadhadha. Isin yeroo mootii isin bulchu gaafattanitti akka waan hamaa fuula Waaqayyoo duratti hojjettan ni hubattu.”
18 Emva kwalokho uSamuyeli wakhuleka kuThixo, njalo khona mhlalokho uThixo wathumela umdumo lezulu. Ngakho abantu bonke bamesaba uThixo loSamuyeli.
Kana irratti Saamuʼeel Waaqayyoon waammate; Waaqayyos yeruma sana qaqawweessaa fi bokkaa erge. Namoonni hundinuus Waaqayyoo fi Saamuʼeelin akka malee sodaatan.
19 Bonke abantu bathi kuSamuyeli, “Khulekela izinceku zakho kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakho ukuze singafi, ngoba sesengeze kwezinye zonke izono zethu ngobubi bokucela inkosi.”
Namoonni hundinuus Saamuʼeeliin, “Akka nu tajaajiltoonni kee hin dhumneef Waaqayyoon Waaqa kee nuuf kadhadhu; nu cubbuu keenya hunda irratti daballee mootiin nurratti akka moʼu gaafachuudhaan daba hojjenneerraatii” jedhan.
20 USamuyeli waphendula wathi, “Lingesabi. Selibenzile bonke lobububi; kodwa lingamfulatheli uThixo; kodwa khonzani uThixo ngezinhliziyo zenu zonke.
Saamuʼeelis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Hin sodaatinaa; isin hammina kana hunda raawwattaniirtu; taʼus garaa guutuudhaan Waaqayyoon tajaajilaa malee Waaqayyo irraa hin deebiʼinaa.
21 Lingaphendukeli ezithombeni ezingasizi lutho. Zingeke zilenzele lutho, kumbe zilihlenge, ngoba kazilasizo.
Garagaltanii wantoota faayidaa hin qabne kanneen isin fayyaduu yookaan isin oolchuu hin dandeenye duukaa hin buʼinaa; isaan faayidaa hin qabaniitii.
22 Ngenxa yebizo lakhe elikhulu uThixo kayikubalahla abantu bakhe, ngoba uThixo wathokoziswa yikulenza libe ngabakhe.
Waaqayyo sababii maqaa isaa guddaa sanaatiif jedhee saba isaa hin gatu; Waaqayyo kan ofii isaa isin godhachuu jaallateeraatii.
23 Mina-ke kangiyikukwenza ukuthi ngenze isono kuThixo ngokungalikhulekeli. Njalo ngizalifundisa indlela enhle lelungileyo.
Akka yaada kootti ani isinii kadhachuu dhiisee Waaqayyotti yakka hojjechuun narraa haa fagaatu. Ani karaa gaarii fi qajeelaa taʼe isin nan barsiisa.
24 Kodwa mesabeni ngeqiniso uThixo, limkhonze ngobuqotho ngezinhliziyo zenu zonke. Khumbulani izinto ezinkulu alenzela zona.
Garuu Waaqayyoon sodaadhaa; garaa keessan guutuunis amanamuudhaan isaaf hojjedhaa; waan guddaa inni isinii godhes yaadadhaa.
25 Kodwa lingaphikelela ukwenza okubi, lina lenkosi yenu lizakhukhulwa.”
Yoo hammina hojjechuu itti fuftan garuu, isinis mootiin keessanis ni baddu.”
