1 USamuyeli 3
1 Umfana uSamuyeli wakhonza phambi kukaThixo engaphansi kuka-Eli. Ngalezonsuku ilizwi likaThixo lalingandanga; kwakungelamibono eminengi.
Abarimaa Samuel dii Eli nan ase, som Awurade. Saa bere no na asɛm a wɔte fi Awurade nkyɛn ne anisoadehu yɛ ade a ɛho yɛ na.
2 Ngobunye ubusuku u-Eli, amehlo akhe ayesefiphala esebona kalufifi, wayelele endaweni yakhe yansuku zonke.
Anadwo bi, na Eli a nʼani reyɛ afura koraa no kɔdae nkyɛe koraa.
3 Isibane sikaNkulunkulu sasingakacitshi, njalo uSamuyeli wayelele phansi ethempelini likaThixo, lapho okwakulebhokisi lesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu khona.
Na Onyankopɔn kanea no nnya nnumii. Saa bere no na Samuel da Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu baabi a ɛbɛn Onyankopɔn adaka no.
4 Uthixo wasembiza uSamuyeli. USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Prɛko pɛ, Awurade frɛe se, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel buae se, “Mini.”
5 Wagijimela ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Kodwa u-Eli wathi, “Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.” Ngakho wabuyela wayalala.
Na ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me.” Eli nso buaa no se, “Memfrɛɛ wo ɛ; san kɔda.” Enti ɔsan kɔdae.
6 Uthixo wambiza futhi wathi, “Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” U-Eli wathi, “Ndodana yami, Angikubizanga; buyela uyelala.”
Awurade san frɛɛ bio se, “Samuel!” Bio, Samuel san yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me?” Eli buaa no se, “Me ba, memfrɛɛ wo ɛ; san kɔda.”
7 Ngalesosikhathi uSamuyeli wayengakamazi uThixo: Ilizwi likaThixo lalingakavezwa kuye.
Na Samuel nnya nhuu Awurade, efisɛ na Awurade asɛm mmaa ne nkyɛn da.
8 Uthixo wambiza uSamuyeli okwesithathu, njalo uSamuyeli wavuka waya ku-Eli wathi, “Ngilapha; ungibizile.” Lapho-ke u-Eli wabona ukuthi nguThixo owayebiza umfana.
Awurade frɛɛ Samuel ne mprɛnsa so. Na Samuel yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔkae se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me.” Ɛhɔ na Eli huu sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔrefrɛ abarimaa no.
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.
Enti ɔka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Kɔ na kɔda bio, na sɛ wote sɛ obi refrɛ wo a, gye so se, ‘Awurade kasa na wʼakoa retie.’” Enti Samuel kɔdaa bio.
10 Uthixo weza wema khonapho, ebiza njengakuqala esithi, “Samuyeli! Samuyeli!” USamuyeli wathi, “Khuluma, ngoba inceku yakho ilalele.”
Na Awurade ba bɛfrɛɛ bio se, “Samuel! Samuel!” Na Samuel buae se, “Awurade kasa na wʼakoa retie.”
11 Uthixo wasesithi kuSamuyeli, “Khangela, sekuseduze ukuba ko-Israyeli ngenze into ezakwenza indlebe zomuntu wonke okuzwayo lokho zincencethe.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Merebɛyɛ akomatu ade bi wɔ Israel.
12 Ngalesosikhathi ngizamelana lo-Eli, ngenze konke engakukhuluma mayelana lendlu yakhe kusukela ekuqaleni kusiya ekucineni.
Merebɛyɛ nea maka atia Eli ne nʼabusuafo no nyinaa.
13 Ngoba ngamtshela ukuthi ngizakwahlulela indlu yakhe okulaphakade ngenxa yesono ayesazi; amadodana akhe ayehlambaza uNkulunkulu, yena wehluleka ukuwakhuza.
Mabɔ no kɔkɔ mpɛn bebree sɛ, atemmu reba ɔne nʼabusuafo so, efisɛ ne mmabarima abɔ mmusu atia Onyankopɔn, nanso wankasa ankyerɛ wɔn.
14 Ngakho, ngayifungela indlu ka-Eli ngathi, ‘Icala lendlu ka-Eli kaliyikuhlawulwa ngomhlatshelo loba ngomnikelo.’”
Na maka ntam se, Eli ne ne mmabarima bɔne no, sɛ wɔbɔ okum afɔre anaa aduan afɔre koraa a, wɔremfa nkyɛ wɔn da.”
15 USamuyeli walala phansi kwaze kwaba sekuseni wasevula iminyango yendlu kaThixo. Wayesesaba ukutshela u-Eli umbono,
Samuel daa hɔ ara kosii sɛ ade kyee. Obuebuee ntamadan hɔ mfɛnsere sɛnea ɔtaa yɛ no. Na osuro sɛ ɔbɛka asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no akyerɛ Eli.
16 kodwa u-Eli wambiza wathi, “Samuyeli, ndodana yami.” USamuyeli wasabela wathi, “Ngilapha.”
Nanso Eli frɛɛ no se, “Samuel, me ba.” Samuel buae se, “Mini!”
17 U-Eli wabuza wathi, “Kuyini akutshiloyo kuwe na? Ungangifihleli. Sengathi uNkulunkulu angakujezisa, kube buhlungu kakhulu, nxa uzangifihlela loba kuyini akutshele khona.”
Eli bisaa no se, “Asɛm bɛn na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wo? Ka biribiara kyerɛ me. Sɛ wode biribiara sie me a, Onyankopɔn ntwe wʼaso.”
18 Ngakho uSamuyeli wamtshela konke, engamfihlelanga lutho. U-Eli wasesithi, “UnguThixo; kenze lokho akubona kukuhle emehlweni akhe.”
Enti Samuel kaa biribiara kyerɛɛ Eli a wamfa hwee anhintaw no. Eli ka sɔw so se, “Ɔne Awurade; ma ɔnyɛ nea eye wɔ nʼani so.”
19 Uthixo wayeloSamuyeli ekukhuleni kwakhe, njalo kayekelanga lalinye lamazwi akhe liwela phansi.
Awurade kaa Samuel ho wɔ ne nyin mu, na biribiara a Samuel kae no, na ɛyɛ nyansasɛm a ɛboa.
20 Njalo u-Israyeli wonke kusukela eDani kusiya eBherishebha wakwazi ukuthi uSamuyeli wayebekwe ukuba ngumphrofethi kaThixo.
Nnipa a wɔwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa, efi Dan asase wɔ atifi kosi anafo no, na wonim sɛ wɔahyɛ Samuel Awurade diyifo.
21 Uthixo waqhubeka ebonakala eShilo, njalo khonapho waziveza kuSamuyeli ngelizwi lakhe.
Awurade kɔɔ so daa ne ho adi wɔ Silo, na ɔnam nʼasɛm so daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Samuel wɔ ntamadan mu hɔ. Na Samuel asɛm baa Israelman mu nyinaa
