1 USamuyeli 3
1 Umfana uSamuyeli wakhonza phambi kukaThixo engaphansi kuka-Eli. Ngalezonsuku ilizwi likaThixo lalingandanga; kwakungelamibono eminengi.
Saamuʼeel mucichi fuula Eelii duratti Waaqayyoon tajaajilaa ture. Bara sana keessa dubbiin Waaqayyoo yeroo tokko tokko malee hin dhufu ture; mulʼanni baayʼeenis hin jiru ture.
2 Ngobunye ubusuku u-Eli, amehlo akhe ayesefiphala esebona kalufifi, wayelele endaweni yakhe yansuku zonke.
Eeliin inni iji isaa arguu dadhabe sun halkan tokko idduma isaa kan durii rafaa ture.
3 Isibane sikaNkulunkulu sasingakacitshi, njalo uSamuyeli wayelele phansi ethempelini likaThixo, lapho okwakulebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu khona.
Saamuʼeelis mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa iddoo taabonni Waaqaa ture sana ture; ibsaan Waaqaa amma illee hin dhaamne ture.
4 Uthixo wasembiza uSamuyeli. USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Waaqayyos Saamuʼeelin ni waame. Saamuʼeelis, “Ani asin jira” jedhee deebise.
5 Wagijimela ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Kodwa u-Eli wathi, “Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.” Ngakho wabuyela wayalala.
Fiigees gara Eelii dhaqee, “Ati waan na waamteef ani kunoo dhufeera” jedheen. Eeliin garuu, “Ani si hin waamne; deebiʼii ciisi” jedheen; innis deebiʼee ciise.
6 Uthixo wambiza futhi wathi, “Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” U-Eli wathi, “Ndodana yami, Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.”
Ammas Waaqayyo, “Saamuʼeel!” jedhee waame; Saamuʼeelis kaʼee Eelii bira dhaqee, “Ati waan na waamteef ani kunoo dhufeera” jedhe. Eeliinis, “Yaa ilma koo ani si hin waamne; dhaqii ciisi” jedheen.
7 Ngalesosikhathi uSamuyeli wayengakamazi uThixo: Ilizwi likaThixo lalingakavezwa kuye.
Yeroo sana Saamuʼeel Waaqayyoon hin beeku ture; dubbiin Waaqayyos isaaf hin ibsamne ture.
8 Uthixo wambiza uSamuyeli okwesithathu, njalo uSamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Lapho-ke u-Eli wabona ukuthi nguThixo owayebiza umfana.
Waaqayyo yeroo sadaffaadhaaf Saamuʼeelin ni waame; Saamuʼeelis kaʼee gara Eelii dhaqe, “Ati waan na waamteef ani kunoo dhufeera” jedhe. Eliin yeroo kana akka Waaqayyo mucicha waamaa ture hubate.
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.
Kanaafuu Eeliin Saamuʼeeliin, “Dhaqii ciisi; yoo inni si waame, ‘Garbichi kee dhagaʼaa jiraatii yaa Waaqayyo dubbadhu’ jedhi” jedheen. Kanaafuu Saamuʼeel dhaqee iddoo ofii isaa ciise.
10 Uthixo weza wema khonapho, ebiza njengakuqala esithi, “Samuyeli! Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wathi, “Khuluma, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.”
Waaqayyos dhufee achi dhaabatee akkuma duraan waametti, “Saamuʼeel! Saamuʼeel!” jedhee waame. Saamuʼeelis, “Garbichi kee dhagaʼaa jiraatii dubbadhu” jedhe.
11 Uthixo wasesithi kuSamuyeli, “Khangela, sekuseduze ukuba ko-Israyeli ngenze into ezakwenza indlebe zomuntu wonke okuzwayo lokho zincencethe.
Waaqayyos Saamuʼeeliin akkana jedhe: “Kunoo ani waan gurra namaatti hin tolle tokko Israaʼelitti fiduufin jira.
12 Ngalesosikhathi ngizamelana lo-Eli, ngenze konke engakukhuluma mayelana lendlu yakhe kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni.
Gaafas ani waanan maatii Eelii irratti dubbadhe hundumaa jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti Eeliitti nan fida.
13 Ngoba ngamtshela ukuthi ngizakwahlulela indlu yakhe okulaphakade ngenxa yesono ayesazi; amadodana akhe ayehlambaza uNkulunkulu, yena wehluleka ukuwakhuza.
Sababii waaʼee cubbuu inni iyyuu beeku tokkootiif ani maatii isaa akkan adabu isatti himeeraatii. Ilmaan isaa waan jibbisiisaa hojjetan; inni garuu isaan hin dhowwine.
14 Ngakho, ngayifungela indlu ka-Eli ngathi, ‘Icala lendlu ka-Eli kaliyikuhlawulwa ngomhlatshelo loba ngomnikelo.’”
Kanaaf ani, ‘Cubbuun mana Eelii aarsaadhaan yookaan qalmaan hin haqamu’ jedhee kakadheera.”
15 USamuyeli walala phansi kwaze kwaba sekuseni wasevula iminyango yendlu kaThixo. Wayesesaba ukutshela u-Eli umbono,
Saamuʼeel hamma bariʼutti ni rafe; ergasii balbala mana Waaqayyoo bane. Innis mulʼata sana Eeliitti himuu sodaatee ture.
16 kodwa u-Eli wambiza wathi, “Samuyeli, ndodana yami.” USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Eeliin garuu ofitti isa waamee, “Saamuʼeel, yaa ilma koo” jedhe. Saamuʼeelis deebisee, “Ani asin jira” jedheen.
17 U-Eli wabuza wathi, “Kuyini akutshiloyo kuwe na? Ungangifihleli. Sengathi uNkulunkulu angakujezisa, kube buhlungu kakhulu, nxa uzangifihlela loba kuyini akutshele khona.”
Eeliinis, “Inni maal jedhee sitti dubbate? Na hin dhoksin; yoo ati waan inni sitti hime tokko illee na dhoksite Waaqni waan hamaa sitti haa fidu; sittis haa cimsu” isaan jedhe.
18 Ngakho uSamuyeli wamtshela konke, engamfihlelanga lutho. U-Eli wasesithi, “UnguThixo; kenze lokho akubona kukuhle emehlweni akhe.”
Kanaaf Saamuʼeel waan tokko illee utuu hin dhoksin waan hundumaa isatti hime. Eeliinis, “Inni Waaqayyoo dha; waan isatti tole haa godhu” jedhe.
19 Uthixo wayeloSamuyeli ekukhuleni kwakhe, njalo kayekelanga lalinye lamazwi akhe liwela phansi.
Saamuʼeel guddachaa deeme; Waaqayyos isa wajjin ture; dubbii isaa keessaas tokko iyyuu lafa hin buʼu ture.
20 Njalo u-Israyeli wonke kusukela eDani kusiya eBherishebha wakwazi ukuthi uSamuyeli wayebekwe ukuba ngumphrofethi kaThixo.
Israaʼeloonni Daanii hamma Bersheebaatti argaman hundi akka Saamuʼeel raajii Waaqayyoo taʼee fudhatame beekan.
21 Uthixo waqhubeka ebonakala eShilo, njalo khonapho waziveza kuSamuyeli ngelizwi lakhe.
Waaqayyo ammas Shiilootti mulʼate; inni karaa dubbii isaatiin Saamuʼeelitti of mulʼiseeraatii.
