1 USamuyeli 3
1 Umfana uSamuyeli wakhonza phambi kukaThixo engaphansi kuka-Eli. Ngalezonsuku ilizwi likaThixo lalingandanga; kwakungelamibono eminengi.
Samuel, ɖevi sue la, nɔ Yehowa subɔm to kpekpe ɖe Eli ŋu me. Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, ƒãa hafi Yehowa naƒo nu na amegbetɔ eye ŋutegakpɔkpɔ hã mebɔ o.
2 Ngobunye ubusuku u-Eli, amehlo akhe ayesefiphala esebona kalufifi, wayelele endaweni yakhe yansuku zonke.
Fifia, Eli zu amegãɖeɖi eye eƒe ŋkuwo megakpɔa nu tututu o. Emlɔ eƒe xɔ me le zã me gbe ɖeka eye
3 Isibane sikaNkulunkulu sasingakacitshi, njalo uSamuyeli wayelele phansi ethempelini likaThixo, lapho okwakulebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu khona.
Samuel hã mlɔ gbedoxɔ la me le afi si nubablaɖaka la nɔ. Ke esi wòsusɔ vie woatsi xɔmekaɖiwo la,
4 Uthixo wasembiza uSamuyeli. USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Yehowa yɔe be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel tɔ be, “Papaa!”
5 Wagijimela ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Kodwa u-Eli wathi, “Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.” Ngakho wabuyela wayalala.
Efɔ eye wòƒu du yi Eli gbɔ hegblɔ be, “Nyee nye esi, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Eli gblɔ nɛ be, “Vinye, nyemeyɔ wò o, yi ɖamlɔ anyi.” Ale wòtrɔ yi ɖamlɔ anyi.
6 Uthixo wambiza futhi wathi, “Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” U-Eli wathi, “Ndodana yami, Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.”
Yehowa gayɔe ake be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel gafɔ eye wògaƒu du yi Eli gbɔ. Egagblɔ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Eli gblɔ be, “Vinye, nyemeyɔ wò o, yi nàmlɔ anyi.”
7 Ngalesosikhathi uSamuyeli wayengakamazi uThixo: Ilizwi likaThixo lalingakavezwa kuye.
Samuel medze si Yehowa haɖe o eye Yehowa meƒo nu nɛ kpɔ haɖe hã o.
8 Uthixo wambiza uSamuyeli okwesithathu, njalo uSamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Lapho-ke u-Eli wabona ukuthi nguThixo owayebiza umfana.
Yehowa gayɔ Samuel zi etɔ̃lia. Samuel gaƒu du yi Eli gbɔ eye wògagblɔ nɛ be, “Nye aƒetɔ, nu ka mawɔ na wò?” Azɔ Eli dze sii be Yehowae nɔ nu ƒom na ɖevia
9 Ngakho u-Eli watshela uSamuyeli wathi, “Hamba uyelala, njalo nxa ekubiza wena uthi, ‘Khuluma Thixo, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.’” Ngakho uSamuyeli wahamba wayalala endaweni yakhe.
eya ta wògblɔ na Samuel be, “Gayi ɖamlɔ anyi; ne egayɔ wò la, nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Yehowa ƒo nu, wò dɔla le to ɖom.’” Samuel gayi ɖamlɔ anyi.
10 Uthixo weza wema khonapho, ebiza njengakuqala esithi, “Samuyeli! Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wathi, “Khuluma, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.”
Yehowa gayɔe abe tsã ene be, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel ɖo eŋu be, “Aƒetɔ, meɖe kuku, ƒo nu, wò dɔla le to ɖom.”
11 Uthixo wasesithi kuSamuyeli, “Khangela, sekuseduze ukuba ko-Israyeli ngenze into ezakwenza indlebe zomuntu wonke okuzwayo lokho zincencethe.
Yehowa gblɔ na Samuel be, “Mele nu dziŋɔ aɖe wɔ ge le Israel.
12 Ngalesosikhathi ngizamelana lo-Eli, ngenze konke engakukhuluma mayelana lendlu yakhe kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni.
Mawɔ nu dziŋɔ siwo katã ŋu meƒo nu tsoe na Eli.
13 Ngoba ngamtshela ukuthi ngizakwahlulela indlu yakhe okulaphakade ngenxa yesono ayesazi; amadodana akhe ayehlambaza uNkulunkulu, yena wehluleka ukuwakhuza.
Metsɔ tohehe do ŋgɔ na Eli kple eƒe ƒome blibo la elabena viawo le busunuwo wɔm ɖe Mawu ŋu eye Eli megbe na wo o.
14 Ngakho, ngayifungela indlu ka-Eli ngathi, ‘Icala lendlu ka-Eli kaliyikuhlawulwa ngomhlatshelo loba ngomnikelo.’”
Eya ta meka atam be vɔsawo kple nunanawo mate ŋu ana woatsɔ Eli kple viawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake akpɔ o.”
15 USamuyeli walala phansi kwaze kwaba sekuseni wasevula iminyango yendlu kaThixo. Wayesesaba ukutshela u-Eli umbono,
Samuel nɔ anyimlɔƒe va se ɖe ŋdi. Eʋu gbedoxɔ la ƒe ʋɔtru abe ale si wòwɔna ɖaa ene, ke enɔ vɔvɔ̃m be yeagblɔ nya si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la na Eli.
16 kodwa u-Eli wambiza wathi, “Samuyeli, ndodana yami.” USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Ke Eli yɔe be, “Vinye Samuel.” Samuel ɖo eŋu be, “Nyee nye esi.”
17 U-Eli wabuza wathi, “Kuyini akutshiloyo kuwe na? Ungangifihleli. Sengathi uNkulunkulu angakujezisa, kube buhlungu kakhulu, nxa uzangifihlela loba kuyini akutshele khona.”
Eli biae be, “Nya kae Yehowa gblɔ na wò? Gblɔ nya sia nya nam; Mawu nehe to na wò vevie ne ètsɔ nya aɖe ɣlam!”
18 Ngakho uSamuyeli wamtshela konke, engamfihlelanga lutho. U-Eli wasesithi, “UnguThixo; kenze lokho akubona kukuhle emehlweni akhe.”
Ale Samuel gblɔ nya sia nya si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la na Eli eye Eli ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe lɔlɔ̃nue; eya ŋutɔ nena nu si tututu wòkpɔ be eyae nye nyuitɔ la nava eme.”
19 Uthixo wayeloSamuyeli ekukhuleni kwakhe, njalo kayekelanga lalinye lamazwi akhe liwela phansi.
Esi Samuel nɔ tsitsim la, Yehowa nɔ kplii eye wòna be nya sia nya si Samuel gblɔ la vaa eme.
20 Njalo u-Israyeli wonke kusukela eDani kusiya eBherishebha wakwazi ukuthi uSamuyeli wayebekwe ukuba ngumphrofethi kaThixo.
Eya ta Israel blibo la, tso Dan yi Beerseba nya be Yehowa ɖo Samuel nyagblɔɖilae.
21 Uthixo waqhubeka ebonakala eShilo, njalo khonapho waziveza kuSamuyeli ngelizwi lakhe.
Yehowa gaɖea eɖokui fiana le Silo. Eɖe eɖokui fia Samuel eye wòƒo nu nɛ le afi ma. Ne Samuel ƒo nu la, Israel blibo la ɖoa toe.
