Ne nitie ja-Benjamin moro mongʼere ma nyinge Kish wuod Abiel, ma wuod Zeror, ma wuod Bekorath, ma wuod Afia ma ja-Benjamin.
2 Njalo yayilendodana, obizo layo lalinguSawuli, ijaha elihle; kwakungelamuntu omuhle kulalo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli; kusukela emahlombe alo kusiya phezulu lalilide kulabo bonke abantu.
Ne en gi wuowi miluongo ni Saulo, ne en rawera ma jaber e kind jo-Israel bende ne en rabora ma ji moko ne rem mana e goke.
3 Obabhemikazi bakaKishi, uyise kaSawuli, balahleka-ke. Ngakho uKishi wathi kuSawuli indodana yakhe: Ake uthathe enye yezinceku lawe, usukume uhambe uyedinga obabhemikazi.
Chiengʼ moro punde mag Kish wuon Saulo nolal kendo Kish nowachone wuode ma Saulo niya, “Kaw achiel kuom jotich mondo udhigo udwar punde.”
4 Wasedabula intaba zakoEfrayimi, wadabula ilizwe leShalisha, kodwa kababatholanga. Basebedabula ilizwe leShalima, kodwa babengekho. Basebedabula ilizwe lakoBhenjamini, kodwa kababatholanga.
Omiyo nokadho e piny got mar Efraim kod alwora mar Shalisha, to ok ne giyudogi. Negidhiyo ma gichopo e gwenge mag Shaalim, to punde ne onge kuondego. Eka nokadho e piny Benjamin, to ne ok giyudogi.
5 Bona sebefikile elizweni leZufi, uSawuli wathi encekwini yakhe eyayilaye: Woza sibuyele, hlezi ubaba ayekele obabhemikazi abesenqinekela thina.
Kane gichopo e gwenge mag Zuf, Saulo nowachone jatich mane ni kode niya, “Bi wadogi, dipo ka wuora oweyo paro punde kendo mochako mana parowa.”
6 Yasisithi kuye: Khangela-ke, kulomuntu kaNkulunkulu kulumuzi, ungumuntu ohloniphekayo; konke akutshoyo kuyenzeka sibili. Khathesi asiye khona; mhlawumbe angasitshela indlela esizahamba ngayo.
To jatich nodwoke kawachone niya, “Iwinjo, e dalano nitiere ngʼat Nyasaye moro marahuma kendo gik mowacho duto timore mana kaka owacho. Bi wadhi ire koro nikech onyalo nyisowa yo monego waluw.”
7 USawuli wasesithi encekwini yakhe: Kodwa khangela, uba sisiya, sizamphathelani lowomuntu? Ngoba isinkwa kasisekho ezitsheni zethu; futhi kakulasipho sokusa emuntwini kaNkulunkulu. Silani?
Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “To ka wadhi, en angʼo ma wabiro miyo ngʼatni? Chiemo mane ni e mifukewa oserumo. Waonge kod mich ma wanyalo tero ne ngʼat Nyasaye. En angʼo ma wan-go?”
8 Inceku yasibuya yamphendula uSawuli yathi: Khangela, kutholakala esandleni sami ingxenye yesine yeshekeli lesiliva; ngizamnika yona lowomuntu kaNkulunkulu ukuze asitshele indlela yethu.
Jatich nowachone kendo niya, “An-gi pesa moko manok. Abiro miye ngʼat Nyasaye mondo onyiswa yo monego waluw.”
9 (Endulo koIsrayeli lapho umuntu esiyabuza kuNkulunkulu, wayesitsho kanje: Woza siye kumboni; ngoba lo ongumprofethi lamuhla kuqala wayebizwa ngokuthi ngumboni.)
Chon e piny Israel kane ngʼato dhi penjo Nyasaye wach ne owacho niya, “Bi wadhi ka Janen,” nikech ngʼat miluongo ni janabi ndaloni ne iluongo ni janen.
10 USawuli wasesithi encekwini yakhe: Lihle ilizwi lakho; woza sihambe. Basebesiya emzini lapho okwakukhona lowomuntu kaNkulunkulu.
Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “Mano ber, bi wadhi.” Omiyo negiwuok ma gidhi e dala kama ngʼat Nyasaye nodakie.
11 Besenyuka ngomqanso womuzi, bona bafica amantombazana ephuma ukuyakukha amanzi, bathi kuwo: Umboni ulapha yini?
Kane giidho got matin-no ka gichomo dalano negiromo gi nyiri moko kadhi umbo pi kendo ne gipenjogi niya, “Bende ngʼat makoro nika?”
12 Asebaphendula athi: Ukhona; khangelani, uphambi kwenu. Phangisani khathesi; ngoba ufike lamuhla emzini, ngoba abantu balomhlatshelo lamuhla endaweni ephakemeyo.
To negidwoko niya, “Ee entie, ero odhi nyimu kanyo, returu. Koro eka odonjo e dalawa kawuono nimar jowa timo misango e kama owal.”
13 Ekungeneni kwenu emzini, lizahle limthole engakenyukeli endaweni ephakemeyo ukuyakudla; ngoba abantu kabayikudla aze afike, ngoba nguye obusisa umhlatshelo, emva kwalokho abanxusiweyo badle. Ngakho-ke yenyukani, ngoba yena, phose ngalesisikhathi, lizamthola.
E sa ma usedonjo e dala to ubiro yudo kapok oidho odhi malo kama owal mondo ochiem. Ji ok bi chako chiemo nyaka ochopi, nikech nyaka ogwedh gir timo misango eka bangʼe jomo oluongi nyalo chiemo. Returu mapiyo sani ema unyalo yude.
14 Basebesenyukela emzini; besangena phakathi komuzi, khangela, uSamuweli waphuma ukubahlangabeza ukwenyukela endaweni ephakemeyo.
Ne giwuotho mi gidhi nyaka dala, to kane gidonjo kanyo to negineno Samuel, kabiro gwenyore kodgi kochiko kama owal.
15 INkosi yasibonakalisa endlebeni kaSamuweli ngosuku phambi kokufika kukaSawuli, isithi:
To chiengʼ motelone biro mar Saulo, noyudo ka Jehova Nyasaye osefwenyo ma ne Samuel.
16 Kusasa phose ngalesisikhathi ngizathuma kuwe umuntu ovela elizweni lakoBhenjamini; futhi umgcobe abe ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli, ukuze asindise abantu bami esandleni samaFilisti, ngoba ngibonile abantu bami, ngoba ukukhala kwabo kufikile kimi.
“Kiny kar sa ma kama abiro oro ngʼato moa e piny Benjamin. Wire mondo otel ne joga ma jo-Israel, enores joga e lwet jo-Filistia. Asekecho joga nimar ywakgi osechopona.”
17 Kwathi uSamuweli ebona uSawuli, iNkosi yamphendula: Khangela, umuntu ebengikhuluma ngaye kuwe. Lo uzabusa phezu kwabantu bami.
Kane Samuel ogoyo wangʼe kuom Saulo, Jehova Nyasaye ne owachone niya, “Ma e ngʼat mane awuoyoni kuome nibiro rito ogandana.”
18 USawuli wasesondela kuSamuweli phakathi kwesango wathi: Akungitshele, ingaphi lapha indlu yomboni?
Saulo nodhi ir Samuel e dhorangach mopenje niya, “Kiyie to nyisa od janen?”
19 USamuweli wasemphendula uSawuli wathi: Yimi umboni; yenyuka phambi kwami uye endaweni ephakemeyo, ngoba lamuhla uzakudla lami; lekuseni ngizakuyekela uhambe, ngikutshele konke okusenhliziyweni yakho.
Samuel nodwoke niya, “An e janen. Tel nyima idhi kama owal maler nimar kawuono ibiro chiemo koda kendo kiny gokinyi abiro weyi idhi kendo ananyisi mago duto man e chunyi.
20 Lamayelana labobabhemikazi bakho asebelensuku ezintathu belahlekile, ungafaki inhliziyo yakho kubo, ngoba sebetholiwe. Kodwa zikubani iziloyiso zonke zikaIsrayeli? Kazikho kuwe yini lendlini yonke kayihlo?
Kor ka wach punde mane olal ndalo adek mokadho to owe chandi nimar oseyudgi. Koso en ngʼa ma chuny jo-Israel duto dwaro ka ok en in gi od wuonu?”
21 USawuli wasephendula wathi: Kangisuye umBhenjamini yini, owesincinyane sezizwe zakoIsrayeli, losendo lwethu luncinyane kulazo zonke insendo zesizwe sakoBhenjamini? Pho-ke, ukhulumelani kimi ngalindlela?
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Donge an ja-Benjamin, oganda matin ahinya ei Israel, to donge dhoodwa bende e dhoot matin, moloyo ei oganda mar Benjamin? Angʼo momiyo iwacho wechegi kuoma?”
22 USamuweli wasethatha uSawuli lenceku yakhe, wabangenisa ekamelweni lokudlela, wabahlalisa endaweni engaphezulu yabanxusiweyo, ababengaphose babe ngamatshumi amathathu.
Eka Samuel nokelo Saulo gi jatije kar budho moketogi gibet e kom manyime kuom ji duto mane oluongo mane nyalo romo ji piero adek.
23 USamuweli wasesithi kumpheki: Letha isabelo engikunike sona, engithe kuwe ngaso: Sibeke ngakuwe.
Samuel ne onyiso jatedo niya, “Kel lemo mar ringʼo mane amiyi, mane anyisi ni iket tenge.”
24 Umpheki wasephakamisa umlenze lokwakuphezu kwawo, wakubeka phambi kukaSawuli. USamuweli wasesithi: Khangela, okuseleyo; kubeke phambi kwakho, dlana; ngoba bekubekelwe wena kuze kufike lesisikhathi esimisiweyo, njengoba ngitshilo: Nginxuse abantu. USawuli wasesidla loSamuweli ngalolosuku.
Eka jatedo nokawo em gi sembe moketo e nyim Saulo. Samuel nowacho niya, “Ma e gima nokan-ni, cham, nikech nokan-nigo ne nyasini, chakre e kinde mane aluongoe welo.” Eka Saulo nochiemo gi Samuel chiengʼno.
25 Sebehlile endaweni ephakemeyo baya emzini, wakhuluma loSawuli ephahleni.
Kane gisea e kama owal mi gidwogo e dala, Samuel nowuoyo gi Saulo ka gin kode ewi ode malo.
26 Basebevuka ngovivi; kwasekusithi phose emadabukakusa, uSamuweli wambiza uSawuli ephahleni esithi: Sukuma ukuze ngikuyekele uhambe. Wasesukuma uSawuli, baphuma bobabili, yena loSamuweli, baya phandle.
Ne gichiewo ka piny yawore, eka Samuel noluongo Saulo ewi ot, kowachone niya, “Ikri abiro gonyi mondo ichak wuodhi.” Kane Saulo oseikore, en kod Samuel ne giwuok oko.
27 Sebesehlela ekucineni komuzi, uSamuweli wathi kuSawuli: Tshela inceku ukuthi yedlule phambi kwethu (yasisedlula), kodwa wena mana okwakhathesi, ukuthi ngikuzwise ilizwi likaNkulunkulu.
Kane oyudo gin e bath dala, Samuel nowachone Saulo niya, “Nyis jatichni mondo otel, in to dongʼ chien mondo amiyi wach moa kuom Nyasaye.” Omiyo jatijno notimo kamano.
