Na rĩrĩ, Nahashu ũrĩa Mũamoni nĩambatire agĩthiĩ akĩrigiicĩria Jabeshi-Gileadi. Nao andũ othe a Jabeshi makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Gĩa na kĩrĩĩko kĩa ũiguano, na ithuĩ nĩ tũrĩgũtungatagĩra.”
2 Asi Nahashi muAmoni akapindura achiti, “Ndichaita chibvumirano nemi bedzi kana ndabvisa ziso rokurudyi romumwe nomumwe wenyu mose saizvozvo ndigonyadzisa Israeri yose.”
Nowe Nahashu ũcio Mũamoni agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũkũgĩa na kĩrĩĩko kĩa ũiguano na inyuĩ mwetĩkĩra ũndũ ũyũ ũmwe: atĩ ngũũre riitho rĩa ũrĩo rĩa o mũndũ wothe nĩgeetha nyararithie andũ a Isiraeli othe.”
3 Vakuru veJabheshi vakati kwaari, “Tipe mazuva manomwe kuti tigotuma nhume muIsraeri yose; kana pashaya mumwe chete anouya kuzotinunura, tichazvipa kwamuri.”
Athuuri acio a Jabeshi makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũhe mĩthenya mũgwanja nĩguo tũtũme andũ Isiraeli guothe, kũngĩaga mũndũ wa gũtũhonokia-rĩ, nĩtũkwĩneana kũrĩ we.”
4 Nhume padzakauya kuGibhea yaSauro vakaudza vanhu zvisungo izvi vose vakachema zvikuru.
Rĩrĩa andũ acio matũmĩtwo maakinyire Gibea gwa Saũlũ na makĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ-rĩ, andũ othe makĩrĩra maanĩrĩire.
5 Panguva iyoyo Sauro akanga achibva kuminda, ari shure kwehando dzake, akabvunza achiti, “Vanhu vaita sei? Vari kuchemeiko?” Ipapo vakarondedzerazve zvakanga zvataurwa navarume veJabheshi.
Na rĩrĩ, Saũlũ nĩgũcooka aacookaga oimĩte mĩgũnda-inĩ, oimĩte ndegwa ciake thuutha, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ andũ aya moonete ũũru ũrĩkũ? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma marĩre?” Nao magĩcookera ũhoro ũcio makĩmwĩra ũrĩa andũ a Jabeshi moigĩte.
6 Sauro paakanzwa mashoko aya, mweya waMwari wakauya pamusoro pake nesimba, akatsva nehasha.
Rĩrĩa Saũlũ aiguire ũhoro ũcio, Roho wa Ngai agĩũka igũrũ rĩake na hinya mũno, nake agĩcinwo nĩ marakara.
7 Akatora hando mbiri, akadzicheka-cheka, akatumidzira zvidimbu izvi nenhume muIsraeri yose, namashoko okuti, “Izvi ndizvo zvichaitwa kuhando dzaani naani asingateveri Sauro naSamueri.” Ipapo kutya kwaMwari kwakawira pamusoro pavanhu, vakauya somunhu mumwe chete.
Akĩnyiita ndegwa igĩrĩ, agĩcitinangia icunjĩ, na agĩtũma andũ Isiraeli guothe nacio, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo ndegwa cia mũndũ o wothe igwĩkwo ũrĩa ũtekũrũmĩrĩra Saũlũ na Samũeli.” Naguo guoya woimĩte harĩ Jehova ũkĩnyiita andũ acio, nao makiumagara ta maarĩ o mũndũ ũmwe.
8 Sauro paakavaunganidza paBhezeki, varume veIsraeri vaisvika mazana matatu ezviuru uye varume veJudha zviuru makumi matatu.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Saũlũ aamatarire hamwe marĩ kũu Bezeki, andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ andũ ngiri magana matatũ na andũ a Juda ngiri mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
9 Vakaudza nhume dzakanga dzauya kuti, “Muti kuvarume veJabheshi Gireadhi, ‘Mangwana kana zuva ropisa muchanunurwa.’” Nhume padzakaenda dzikandotaura izvi kuvarume veJabheshi, vakafara kwazvo.
Nao makĩĩra andũ acio maatũmĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Ĩrai andũ acio a Jabeshi-Gileadi atĩrĩ, ‘rũciũ ihinda rĩrĩa riũa rĩgaakorwo rĩhiũhĩte, nĩguo mũkaahonokio.’” Rĩrĩa andũ acio maatũmĩtwo mathiire makĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Jabeshi-rĩ, andũ acio makĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno kĩnene.
10 Vakati kuvaAmoni, “Mangwana tichazvipira kwamuri, uye muchaita kwatiri zvose zvinenge zvakakunakirai.”
Nao makĩĩra andũ a Amoni atĩrĩ, “Rũciũ nĩtũkeneana kũrĩ inyuĩ, na inyuĩ no mũtwĩke ũrĩa wothe mũkoona kwagĩrĩire.”
11 Zuva raitevera, Sauro akaisa vanhu vake muzvikwata zvitatu; panguva yemambakwedza vakapinda mumusasa wavaAmoni vakavauraya kusvikira zuva ropisa. Vakararama vakapararira, zvokuti hapana vaviri vavo vakasara vari pamwe chete.
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Saũlũ akĩgayania ita rĩake akĩiga andũ ikundi ithatũ; na hĩndĩ ya ituanĩra rĩa arangĩri rĩa gũgĩkĩa makĩhithũka kambĩ-inĩ ya Aamoni makĩmooraga nginya rĩrĩa riũa rĩakoretwo rĩhiũhĩte. Arĩa maatigarire makĩharaganio. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtiarĩ andũ ao eerĩ maatigĩtwo me hamwe.
12 Ipapo vanhu vakati kuna Samueri, “Ndiani akabvunza achiti, ‘Sauro achatitonga here?’ Uyai navarume ava kwatiri tivauraye.”
Andũ acio magĩcooka makĩĩra Samũeli atĩrĩ, “Nĩ a acio mooragia atĩrĩ, ‘Saũlũ no atũthamakĩre?’ Tũrehere andũ acio tũmoorage.”
13 Asi Sauro akati, “Hapana munhu achaurayiwa nhasi, nokuti nhasi Jehovha anunura Israeri.”
Nowe Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũũ ũkũũragwo ũmũthĩ, nĩ ũndũ mũthenya ũyũ Jehova nĩahonoketie Isiraeli.”
14 Zvino Samueri akati kuvanhu, “Uyai tiende kuGirigari tindosimbisa umambo ikoko zvakare.”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Samũeli agĩcooka akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Ũkai, tũthiĩ Giligali na tũrĩ kũu tũkindĩre ũthamaki.”
15 Saka vanhu vose vakaenda kuGirigari vakasimbisa Sauro samambo pamberi paJehovha. Ipapo vakabayira zvipo zvokuwadzana pamberi paJehovha, uye Sauro navaIsraeri vose vakava nokupemberera kukuru.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe magĩthiĩ Giligali na magĩkindĩra atĩ Saũlũ nĩwe mũthamaki marĩ mbere ya Jehova. Nao marĩ kũu makĩruta maruta ma ũiguano marĩ mbere ya Jehova, nake Saũlũ na andũ othe a Isiraeli magĩkũngũĩra na njĩra nene.
