1 Saamuʼeel 16
1 Waaqayyos Saamuʼeeliin akkana jedhe; “Saaʼol isa ani akka inni Israaʼel irratti mootii hin taaneef tuffadhe sanaaf hamma yoomiitti boossa? Gaanfa keetti zayitii guuttadhuutii deemi; ani gara Isseeyi nama Beetlihemitti sin erga. Ani ilmaan isaa keessaa isa tokko akka mootii taʼuuf filadheeraatii.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “ʻE tuku ʻafē ʻa hoʻo tēngihia ʻa Saula; he kuo u liʻaki ia ke ʻoua naʻa pule ia ki ʻIsileli? fakafonu haʻo nifoʻi manu ʻi he lolo, pea ke ʻalu, te u fekau koe kia Sese ko e tangata Petelihema: he kuo u teuteu ha tuʻi mei hono ngaahi foha.
2 Saamuʼeel garuu, “Ani akkamittin deemuu dandaʼa? Saaʼol yoo waan kana dhagaʼe na ajjeesa” jedhe. Waaqayyo immoo akkana jedhe; “Goromsa tokko fudhadhuu dhaqiitii, ‘Ani Waaqayyoof aarsaa dhiʼeessuufin dhufe’ jedhi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “ʻE fēfē ʻeku faʻa ʻalu? Kapau ʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Saula te ne tāmateʻi au.” Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “ʻAve ha pulu fefine mo koe, pea ke pehē, kuo u haʻu ke feilaulau kia Sihova.
3 Isseeyinis gara aarsaatti waami; ani waan ati gootu sitti argisiisa. Atis nama ani sitti argisiisu sana naa dibda.”
Pea ke ui ʻa Sese ki he feilaulau, pea te u fakahā kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai: pea ke pani maʻaku ʻaia te u lau kiate koe.”
4 Saamuʼeelis waan Waaqayyo isa ajaje godhe. Yommuu inni Beetlihem gaʼetti maanguddoonni magaalaa sanaa hollachaa isa simachuu dhufanii, “Ati naguma dhuftee?” jedhanii isa gaafatan.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Samuela ʻaia naʻe folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova. Pea naʻe tetetete ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo ʻi heʻene hoko ki ai, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku ke haʻu melino pe?”
5 Saamuʼeelis deebisee, “Eeyyee naguma; ani Waaqayyoof aarsaa dhiʼeessuun dhufe. Isinis of qulqulleessaatii na wajjin gara aarsaa kottaa” jedhe. Ergasiis inni Isseeyii fi ilmaan isaa qulqulleessee gara aarsaatti isaan waame.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou haʻu melino pē: kuo u haʻu ke fai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova: fakatapui ʻakimoutolu, pea mou haʻu mo au ki he feilaulau.” Pea naʻa ne fakatapui ʻa Sese mo hono ngaahi foha, ʻo ne ui ʻakinautolu ki he feilaulau.
6 Yeroo isaan achi gaʼanittis Saamuʼeel Eliiyaabin argee, “Dhugumaan namni Waaqayyo dibe as fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabateera” jedhee garaatti yaade.
Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko mai, naʻe sio ia kia Iliape, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ta ʻoku ʻi he ʻao ni ʻo Sihova ʻaia kuo ne pani.”
7 Waaqayyo garuu Saamuʼeeliin, “Ani isa tuffadheeraatii bifa isaa yookaan hojjaa isaa hin ilaalin. Waaqayyo waan namni ilaalu hin ilaalu. Namni bifa ilaala; Waaqayyo garuu waan garaa keessa jiru ilaala” jedhe.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “ʻOua naʻa ke mamata ki hono mata, pea ki he māʻolunga ʻo hono sino; he kuo u liʻaki ia: he ʻoku ʻikai mamata ʻa Sihova ʻo hangē ko e mamata ʻae tangata; he ʻoku sio ʻae tangata ki he anga ʻoku hā ʻituʻa, ka ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae loto.”
8 Isseeyis ergasii Abiinaadaabin waamee akka inni fuula Saamuʼeel dura darbu godhe. Saamuʼeel garuu, “Waaqayyo isa kana hin filanne” jedhe.
Hili ia naʻe ui ʻe Sese ke haʻu ʻa ʻApinatapi, ke ne ʻalu ange ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela. Pea naʻa ne pehē, ʻOku ʻikai fili ia foki ʻe Sihova.
9 Isseey akka Shamaan darbu godhe; Saamuʼeel garuu, “Waaqayyo isa kanas hin filanne” jedhe.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sese ke ʻalu ange ʻa Sama. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai fili foki ia ʻe Sihova.”
10 Isseey akka ilmaan isaa torbanuu fuula Saamuʼeel dura darban godhe; Saamuʼeel garuu, “Waaqayyo isaan kanneen hin filanne” jedhe.
Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Sese ke ʻalu ange hono foha ʻe toko fitu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “ʻOku ʻikai fili ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu.”
11 Innis, “Ilmaan kee hundi kanneenumaa?” jedhee Isseeyin gaafate. Isseeyis, “Quxxisuun hunda isaanii tokko jira; inni garuu hoolota tiksaa jira” jedhe. Saamuʼeelis, “Nama itti ergiitii isa fichisiisi; nu hamma inni dhufutti hin teenyuutii” jedhe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “ʻOku ʻi heni hoʻo fānau kotoa pē?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku kei toe ʻae kimui, pea vakai, ʻoku ne tauhi ʻae fanga sipi.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Sese, “Fekau ke ʻomi ia: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te tau nofo ki lalo kaeʻoua ke haʻu ia.”
12 Kanaaf Isseeyi nama itti ergee isa fichisiise. Innis diimaa, nama iji isaa miidhaguu fi nama dhaaba tolu ture. Waaqayyos, “Kaʼii isa dibi; inni ani filadhe isa kanaatii” jedhe.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia, ke ʻomi ia ki loto. Pea naʻe totototo mo e toulekeleka hono mata, ʻo matamatalelei ʻene hā mai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Tuʻu hake, ʻo pani ia; he ko eni ia.”
13 Kanaafuu Saamuʼeel gaanfa zayitii fuudhee fuula obboloota isaa duratti isa dibe; guyyaa sanaa jalqabee Hafuurri Waaqayyoo humnaan Daawit irra buʼe. Saamuʼeelis gara Raamaa deeme.
Pea naʻe toki toʻo ʻe Samuela ʻae nifoʻi manu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae lolo, ʻo ne pani ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono ngaahi kāinga; pea naʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kia Tevita talu mei he ʻaho ko ia. Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Samuela ʻo ʻalu ki Lama.
14 Hafuurri Waaqayyoos Saaʼol irraa fagaate; hafuurri hamaan Waaqayyo biraa ergame immoo Saaʼolin dhiphise.
Ka naʻe mahuʻi ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova meia Saula, pea naʻe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe he laumālie kovi meia Sihova.
15 Tajaajiltoonni Saaʼol akkana isaan jedhan; “Kunoo hafuurri hamaan Waaqa biraa ergamee si dhiphisaa jira.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Saula kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ko e laumālie kovi mei he ʻOtua ʻoku ne fakamamahiʻi koe.
16 Egaa gooftaan keenya akka isaan nama baganaa taphachuu dandaʼu barbaadaniif tajaajiltoota isaa warra fuula isaa dura jiran haa ajaju. Innis yommuu hafuurri hamaan sun Waaqa biraa sitti dhufu baganaa siif taphata; sittis ni wayyaaʼa.”
Ke fekau mai ni ʻe homau ʻeiki ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao, ke kumi ha tangata ʻoku poto ʻi he tā ʻoe haʻape: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻiate koe ʻae laumālie kovi mei he ʻOtua, pea ʻe tā ʻe ia ʻaki hono nima, pea te ke moʻui ai.”
17 Kanaafuu Saaʼol tajaajiltoota isaatiin, “Nama akka gaariitti baganaa taphachuu dandaʼu tokko barbaadaatii naa fidaa” jedhe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Ko eni, mou kumi leva ni ha tangata ʻoku poto ʻi he tā meʻa faiva pea ʻomi ia kiate au.”
18 Tajaajiltoota sana keessaa tokko, “Kunoo ilma Isseey nama Beetlihem kan baganaa taphachuu beeku tokko ani argeera. Innis jagnaa fi loltuu dha. Nama dubbii beekuu fi miidhagaa dha. Waaqayyos isa wajjin jira” jedhee deebise.
Pea naʻe lea ai ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻe tokotaha, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku mamata ki he foha ʻo Sese ko e tangata Petelihema, ʻaia ʻoku poto ʻi he tā, pea ko e tangata toʻa ʻaupito ia, mo e tangata tau, pea ʻoku anga fakapotopoto, pea ko e tangata matamatalelei, pea ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova.”
19 Saaʼolis Isseeyitti ergamoota ergee, “Ilma kee Daawit isa hoolota bira jiru sana naa ergi” jedhe.
Ko ia naʻe fekau ai ʻe Saula ʻae kau talafekau kia Sese, ʻo pehē, “Tuku mai ho foha ko Tevita, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fanga sipi, ke haʻu kiate au.”
20 Isseeyis harree tokko fidee buddeenaa fi daadhii wayinii qalqalloo tokko itti feʼee, ilmoo reʼee tokko wajjin ilma isaa Daawitin Saaʼoliif erge.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Sese ʻae ʻasi naʻe tauloto mā, mo e hina uaine, mo e ʻuhikiʻi sipi, ʻo ne ʻatu ia kia Saula ʻi he nima ʻo hono foha ko Tevita.
21 Daawit gara Saaʼol dhufee tajaajila isaa jalqabe. Saaʼol akka malee isa jaallate; Daawitis nama miʼa lolaa isaaf baatu taʼe.
Pea naʻe hoko ange ʻa Tevita kia Saula, ʻo tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻe ʻofa lahi ia kiate ia; pea hoko ia ko hono hoa tau.
22 Saaʼolis, “Akka inni na wajjin turee na tajaajiluuf Daawitiif eeyyami; ani isatti gammadeeraatii” jedhee Isseeyitti dhaame.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula kia Sese, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe tuku mai ʻa Tevita ke nofo ia ʻi hoku ʻao; he ʻoku ou leleiʻia ai au.”
23 Yommuu hafuurri hamaan Waaqa biraa Saaʼolitti dhufu hunda, Daawit baganaa isaa fudhatee taphata ture; Saaʼolis boqonnaa argata; itti wayyaaʼas ture. Hafuurri hamaan sunis isa dhiisee deema ture.
Pea ʻi he hoko kia Saula ʻae laumālie mei he ʻOtua, pea pehē, naʻe toʻo ʻe Tevita ʻae haʻape ʻo ne tā ʻaki ia hono nima: pea naʻe fakafiemālie ai ʻa Saula, pea moʻui ai, pea naʻe ʻalu ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kovi.
