1 USamuyeli 28
1 Kwasekusithi ngalezonsuku amaFilisti abuthanisela impi amabutho awo ukuze alwe loIsrayeli. UAkishi wasesithi kuDavida: Yazi lokwazi ukuthi uzaphuma impi lami, wena labantu bakho.
Bara sana keessa Filisxeemonni Israaʼeloota loluuf humna isaanii walitti qabatan. Aakiishis Daawitiin, “Akka atii fi namoonni kee na wajjin duuluu qabdan beeki” jedhe.
2 UDavida wasesithi kuAkishi: Sibili, wena uzakwazi ukuthi inceku yakho ingenzani. UAkishi wasesithi kuDavida: Ngakho, ngizakubeka ube ngumlindi wekhanda lami zonke izinsuku.
Daawitis, “Waan garbichi kee hojjechuu dandaʼu ati iyyuu yeroo sana ni argita” jedhe. Aakiish deebisee, “Baayʼee gaarii dha; ani bara jireenya koo guutuu waardiyyaa koo sin godhadha” jedhe.
3 USamuweli wayesefile, loIsrayeli wonke wayemlilele, bamngcwabela eRama, ngitsho emzini wakibo. USawuli wayebasusile-ke elizweni abalamadlozi labalumbayo.
Bara sana Saamuʼeel duʼee Israaʼeloonni hundi booʼaniifii magaalaa isaa Raamaatti isa awwaalan. Saaʼolis ilaaltotaa fi eker dubbiftoota biyyaa baasee ture.
4 AmaFilisti asebuthana afika amisa inkamba eShunemi. USawuli wasebuthanisa uIsrayeli wonke, bamisa inkamba eGilibowa.
Filisxeemonni wal gaʼanii Suunamin qubatan; Saaʼol immoo Israaʼeloota hunda walitti qabee Gilboʼaa keessa qubate.
5 Lapho uSawuli ebona inkamba yamaFilisti, wesaba, lenhliziyo yakhe yathuthumela kakhulu.
Saaʼol yeroo qubata Filisxeemotaa argetti ni naʼe; garaan isaas sodaan raafame.
6 Lapho uSawuli ebuza eNkosini, iNkosi kayimphendulanga langamaphupho langeUrimi langabaprofethi.
Innis Waaqayyoon gaafate; Waaqayyo garuu abjuudhaan yookaan Uriimiidhaan yookaan raajotaan deebii hin kennineef.
7 USawuli wasesithi ezincekwini zakhe: Ngidingelani owesifazana oledlozi ukuze ngiye kuye, ngibuze kuye. Inceku zakhe zasezisithi kuye: Khangela, kulowesifazana oledlozi eEndori.
Kana irratti Saaʼol tajaajiltoota isaatiin, “Akka ani dhaqee ishee gaafadhuuf dubartii eker dubbiftuu naaf barbaadaa” jedhe. Isaanis, “Kunoo dubartiin ekeraa dubbiftu tokko Eendoor jirti” jedhan.
8 USawuli wasezifihla isimo, wagqoka ezinye izigqoko, wahamba, yena lamadoda amabili laye; basebefika kowesifazana ebusuku. Wathi: Akungivumisele ngedlozi, ungenyusele engizamutsho kuwe.
Kanaafuu Saaʼol wayyaa biraa uffatee bifa geeddarachuudhaan tajaajiltoota isaa lama wajjin halkaniin gara dubartii ekeraa dubbiftuu sanaa dhaqe. Innis, “Ekeraa naaf dubbisiitii nama ani maqaa isaa sitti himu ol naaf baasi” jedhe.
9 Kodwa owesifazana wathi kuye: Khangela, wena uyazi ukuthi uSawuli wenzeni, ukuthi ubaqumile elizweni abalamadlozi labalumbayo. Pho, uwuthiyelani umphefumulo wami ukungibulala?
Dubartiin sun garuu, “Ati waan Saaʼol hojjete dhugumaan beekta. Inni ilaaltotaa fi eker dubbiftoota lafa irraa fixeera. Egaa maaliif lubbuu koo kiyyoo duʼaa keessa galchita ree?” jetteen.
10 Kodwa uSawuli wafunga kuye ngeNkosi, esithi: Kuphila kukaJehova, isijeziso kasiyikuza kuwe ngaloludaba.
Saaʼolis maqaa Waaqayyootiin isheef kakatee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ati waan kanaaf hin adabamtu” jedhe.
11 Owesifazana wasesithi: Ngikwenyusele bani? Wasesithi: Ngenyusela uSamuweli.
Dubartittiin sunis, “Ani eenyun ol siif baasu ree?” jettee gaafatte. Innis, “Saamuʼeelin ol naaf baasi” jedhe.
12 Lapho owesifazana ebona uSamuweli, wakhala ngelizwi elikhulu; owesifazana wasekhuluma kuSawuli esithi: Ungikhohliseleni? Ngoba unguSawuli.
Dubartiin sunis yommuu Saamuʼeelin argitetti guddiftee iyyite. Saaʼoliin, “Maaliif na gowwoomsite? Ati Saaʼolii dha!” jette.
13 Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ungesabi; kodwa ubonani? Owesifazana wasesithi kuSawuli: Ngibona onkulunkulu besenyuka emhlabathini.
Mootichis, “Hin sodaatin. Ati maal argaa jirta?” isheen jedhe. Dubartiin sunis, “Ani hafuura lafa keessaa ol baʼaa jiru tokko nan arga” jette.
14 Wasesithi kuye: Sinjani isimo sakhe? Wasesithi: Kwenyuka ixhegu elembethe isembatho. Lapho uSawuli esesazi ukuthi nguSamuweli, wakhothama ngobuso emhlabathini, wakhonza.
Saaʼolis, “Inni maal fakkaata?” jedhee gaafate. Isheenis, “Jaarsi wayyaa dheeraa uffate tokko ol baʼaa jira” jette. Saaʼolis akka namni sun Saamuʼeel taʼe beeke; gad jedhees addaan lafatti gombifamee sagade.
15 USamuweli wasesithi kuSawuli: Ungikhathazeleni ngokungenyusa? USawuli wasephendula wathi: Ngibandezelekile kakhulu, ngoba amaFilisti alwa lami, loNkulunkulu usukile kimi, kasangiphenduli, langesandla sabaprofethi langamaphupho. Ngakho ngikubizile ukuthi ungazise ukuthi ngenzeni.
Saamuʼeelis Saaʼoliin, “Ati maaliif ol na baasuudhaan na jeeqxa?” jedhe. Saaʼolis akkana jedheen, “Ani baayʼee dhiphadheera; Filisxeemonni na lolaa jiru; Waaqnis narraa garagaleera. Inni raajotaan yookaan abjuudhaan deebii naa hin kennu. Kanaafuu akka ati waan ani gochuu qabu natti himtuufan si waammadhe.”
16 USamuweli wasesithi: Pho, ubuzelani kimi, lokhu iNkosi isisukile kuwe, yaba yisitha sakho?
Saamuʼeelis akkana jedhe; “Ati erga Waaqayyo sirraa garagalee diina sitti taʼee maaliif na waamta?
17 INkosi isizenzele njengokukhuluma kwayo ngesandla sami; iNkosi isidabule umbuso usuka esandleni sakho, yawunika umakhelwane wakho, uDavida.
Waaqayyo waanuma duraan dursee karaa kootiin dubbate sana fiixaan baase. Waaqayyo mootummaa harka kee keessaa butee ollaa kee keessaa nama tokkoof jechuunis Daawitiif kenneera.
18 Njengoba ungalilalelanga ilizwi leNkosi, futhi ungenzanga ukuvutha kolaka lwayo kumaAmaleki, ngakho iNkosi yenzile linto kuwe lamuhla.
Sababii ati Waaqayyoof hin ajajaminiif yookaan dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa sana Amaaleqoota irratti hin raawwatiniif Waaqayyo harʼa waan kana sitti fideera.
19 Futhi iNkosi izanikela uIsrayeli laye kanye lawe esandleni samaFilisti; kusasa-ke wena lamadodana akho lizakuba lami. Lenkamba yakoIsrayeli iNkosi izayinikela esandleni samaFilisti.
Israaʼelii fi siʼi illee Waaqayyo dabarsee harka Filisxeemotaatti ni kenna; atii fi ilmaan kee bori gara koo dhuftu. Waaqayyos loltoota Israaʼel dabarsee Filisxeemotatti ni kenna.”
20 USawuli wasehle edilikela emhlabathini, ngokuphelela kobude bakhe, wesaba kakhulu ngenxa yamazwi kaSamuweli, njalo kwakungelamandla kuye, ngoba wayengadlanga kudla usuku lonke lobusuku bonke.
Saaʼol waan dubbii Saamuʼeeliin akka malee sodaateef yeruma sana hojjaa isaa guutuudhaan kufe. Inni waan halkanii fi guyyaa sana guutuu homaa hin nyaatiniif humna dhabee ture.
21 Owesifazana wasesiza kuSawuli, wabona ukuthi wethukile kakhulu, wathi kuye: Khangela, incekukazi yakho ililalele ilizwi lakho, ngifakile umphefumulo wami esandleni sami, ngalalela amazwi owakhulume kimi.
Dubartittiinis yommuu gara Saaʼol dhuftee akka inni akka malee sodaate argitetti akkana jette; “Kunoo tajaajiltuun kee siif ajajamteerti. Ani lubbuu kootti murteessee waan ati jette godheera.
22 Ngakho-ke lawe akulalele ilizwi lencekukazi yakho, ngifake phambi kwakho ucezwana lwesinkwa ukuze udle, ukuze amandla abe kuwe nxa uhamba indlela yakho.
Ammas maaloo tajaajiltuu kee dhagaʼi; ani nyaata xinnoo siifan kenna; atis nyaattee jabaattee karaa kee qajeelta.”
23 Kodwa wala wathi: Kangiyikudla. Kodwa inceku zakhe kanye lowesifazana bamcindezela; waselalela ilizwi labo. Wasesukuma emhlabathini, wahlala embhedeni.
Inni immoo, “Hin nyaadhu” jedhee dide. Taʼus namoonni isaa dubartittii wajjin isa jajjabeessinaan inni isaan dhagaʼe. Lafaa kaʼees siree irra taaʼe.
24 Njalo owesifazana wayelethole elinonileyo endlini; waphangisa walihlaba; wathatha impuphu, wayixova, wabhaka isinkwa esingelamvubelo ngayo;
Dubartiin sunis dibicha gabbifame tokko manaa qabdi turte; isheenis yeroodhuma sana qalte. Daakuu xinnoo fuutee sukkuumtee buddeena raacitii hin qabne tolchite.
25 wasisondeza phambi kukaSawuli laphambi kwenceku zakhe; badla. Basukuma bahamba ngalobobusuku.
Isheenis Saaʼolii fi namoota isaatiif dhiʼeessite; isaanis ni nyaatan. Halkanuma sanas achii kaʼanii deeman.
