1 Samueri akati kuna Sauro, “Ndini ndakatumwa naJehovha kuti ndizokuzodza kuti uve mambo pamusoro pavanhu vake ivo vaIsraeri; saka teerera zvino kushoko rinobva kuna Jehovha.
Awo Samwiri n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Mukama nze gwe yatuma okukufukako amafuta okuba kabaka w’abantu be Isirayiri, noolwekyo wuliriza obubaka obuva eri Mukama Katonda.
2 Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: ‘Ndicharanga vaAmareki nokuda kwezvavakaita kuvaIsraeri pavakavadzivirira panzira panguva yavakabuda kubva kuIjipiti.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna nti, ‘Ndibonereza Abamaleki olw’ekyo kye baakola Isirayiri bwe baabateega nga bayambuka okuva mu Misiri.
3 Zvino chienda undorwisa vaAmareki uye uparadze zvachose zvinhu zvavo zvose. Usavarega vari vapenyu uuraye varume navakadzi, vana navacheche, mombe namakwai, ngamera nembongoro.’”
Kaakano genda olumbe Abamaleki obazikiririze ddala, n’ebintu byabwe byonna. Tobasaasira, otta abasajja n’abakazi, abaana n’abato ddala, ente, n’endiga, n’eŋŋamira n’endogoyi.’”
4 Saka Sauro akadana vanhu akavaverenga paTeraimi, zviuru mazana maviri zvavarwi vetsoka uye varume vaibva kuJudha zviuru gumi.
Awo Sawulo n’akuŋŋaanya abasajja, n’ababalira e Terayimu, nga bawera abaserikale ab’ebigere emitwalo amakumi abiri, n’abalala omutwalo gumu okuva mu Yuda.
5 Sauro akaenda kuguta ravaAmareki akavavandira ari mumupata.
Sawulo n’asemberera ekibuga kya Amaleki n’abateegera mu kiwonvu.
6 Ipapo akati kuvaKeni, “Endai, ibvai kuvaAmareki kuti ndirege kukuparadzai pamwe chete navo; nokuti makaita mwoyo munyoro kuvaIsraeri vose panguva yavakabuda muIjipiti.” Naizvozvo vaKeni vakabva pakati pavaAmareki.
N’agamba Abakeeni nti, “Muve mu Bamaleki mugende nneme okubazikiririza awamu nabo, kubanga mwakolera Abayisirayiri bonna ebyekisa bwe bayambuka okuva mu Misiri.” Abakeeni ne basenguka okuva mu Bamaleki.
7 Ipapo Sauro akarwisa vaAmareki kubva paHavhira kusvikira kuShuri, kumabvazuva kweIjipiti.
Awo Sawulo n’alumba Abamaleki okuviira ddala e Kavira okutuuka e Ssuuli, ekiri ebuvanjuba w’e Misiri.
8 Akabata Agagi mambo wavaAmareki ari mupenyu, uye akaparadza chose vanhu vake vose nomunondo.
N’awamba Agagi kabaka w’Abamaleki nga mulamu, naye abantu abalala bonna n’abazikiririza ddala n’ekitala.
9 Asi Sauro nehondo yake vakarega Agagi namakwai akanakisisa nemombe, mhuru dzakakora uye namakwayana, zvakanga zvakanaka zvose. Izvi havana kuda kuzviparadza zvachose, asi zvinhu zvose zvakanga zvichizvidzikana uye zvisina simba ndizvo zvavakaparadza zvachose.
Era Sawulo n’eggye ne baleka Agagi nga mulamu, era endiga n’ente, n’ennyana n’abaana b’endiga n’ebyassava, n’ebyo byonna bye baalaba nga bya muwendo, ne batabizikiririza ddala. Naye ebirala byonna ebitaali bya muwendo nga binyoomebwa oba nga binafu, ne babizikiririza ddala.
10 Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Samueri richiti,
Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Samwiri nti,
11 “Ndinozvidemba kuti ndakagadza Sauro kuti ave mambo, nokuti akatsauka kubva kwandiri uye haana kuita zvandakamurayira.” Samueri akatambudzika, akachema kuna Jehovha usiku hwose.
“Nejjusizza okufuula Sawulo kabaka, kubanga avudde kukungoberera, n’atakolera ku biragiro byange.” Samwiri n’anyolwa nnyo, n’akabira Mukama ekiro kyonna.
12 Samueri akamuka mangwanani-ngwanani akaenda kuti andosangana naSauro, asi akaudzwa kuti, “Sauro aenda kuKarimeri. Ikoko azvivakira shongwe yokuzviremekedza, abvako akadzika kuGirigari.”
Enkeera ku makya Samwiri n’agolokoka n’agenda okusisinkana Sawulo, naye ne bamutegeeza nti, “Sawulo yazze e Kalumeeri gye yeezimbidde ekijjukizo, kyokka kaakano avuddeyo n’aserengeta e Girugaali.”
13 Samueri akati asvika kwaari, Sauro akati, “Jehovha ngaakuropafadzei! Ndakaita zvandakarayirwa naJehovha.”
Awo Samwiri bwe yamutuukako, Sawulo n’ayogera nti, “Mukama akuwe omukisa. Ngoberedde ebiragiro bya Mukama.”
14 Asi Samueri akati, “Ko, zvino kuchema uku kwamakwai munzeve dzangu ndokwei? Kukuma kwemombe kwandinonzwa uku chiiko?”
Naye Samwiri n’amuddamu nti, “Ate okubejjagala okw’endiga n’okuŋooŋa kw’ente bye mpulira biva wa?”
15 Sauro akapindura akati, “Varwi vakabva nazvo kuvaAmareki; vakasiya makwai akanakisisa nemombe kuti vabayire kuna Jehovha Mwari wenyu, asi zvimwe zvose takazviparadza chose.”
Sawulo n’amuddamu nti, “Abaserikale baaziggye ku Bamaleki. Baaleseewo ente n’endiga ezisinga obulungi okuba ebiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda wo, naye ebirala byonna twabizikiririzza ddala.”
16 Samueri akati kuna Sauro, “Mira! Rega ndikutaurire zvandakaudzwa naJehovha nezuro usiku.” Sauro akati, “Ndiudzei.”
Awo Samwiri n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Sirika! Ka nkutegeeze Mukama kye yaŋŋambye ekiro.” Sawulo n’amuddamu nti, “Ntegeeza.”
17 Samueri akati, “Kunyange wakanga uri muduku pakufunga kwako kare, ko, hauna kuitwa mukuru wamarudzi avaIsraeri here? Jehovha akakuzodza kuti uve mambo wavaIsraeri.
Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Newaakubadde nga wali weeraba ng’oli mutono, tewafuuka mukulu wa bika bya Isirayiri? Mukama yakufukako amafuta okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri.
18 Uye akakutuma parwendo, achiti, ‘Enda undoparadza zvachose vanhu vose vakaipa, ivo vaAmareki; uvarwise kusvikira vapera.’
Naakutuma omulimu, ng’agamba nti, ‘Genda ozikiririze ddala abalina ebibi abo Abamaleki, obalwanyise okutuusa lw’olibamalirawo ddala.’
19 Seiko usina kuteerera Jehovha? Wakamhanyirireiko kune zvakapambwa uchiita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha?”
Lwaki tewagondedde ddoboozi lya Mukama? Lwaki mwalulunkanidde omunyago ne mukola ekibi mu maaso ga Mukama?”
20 Sauro akati, “Asi ndakateerera Jehovha. Ndakaenda parwendo rwandakatumwa naJehovha. Ndakaparadza vaAmareki zvachose ndikauya naAgagi mambo wavo.
Sawulo n’addamu Samwiri nti, “Nagondedde eddoboozi lya Mukama, era nagenze ku mulimu Mukama gwe yantumye. Nazikiririzza ddala Abamaleki era ne ndeeta Agagi kabaka waabwe.
21 Varwi vakatora makwai nemombe zvakabva pane zvakapambwa, izvo zvakanakisisa zvavakatsaurira Mwari, kuitira kuti vagozvibayira kuna Jehovha Mwari wenyu paGirigari.”
Abaserikale baatute endiga n’ente, ebisinga obulungi ku ebyo ebyali biteekeddwa okuzikirizibwa, babiweeyo eri Mukama Katonda wo e Girugaali.”
22 Asi Samueri akapindura akati, “Ko, Jehovha angafarira zvipiriso zvinopiswa nezvibayiro sezvaanofarira kuteererwa kwenzwi raJehovha here? Kuteerera kunokunda chibayiro, uye kuteerera kunokunda mafuta amakondobwe.
Naye Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Mukama asanyukira nnyo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa ne ssaddaaka, okusinga okugondera eddoboozi lya Mukama? Okugonda kusinga ssaddaaka, era n’okuwuliriza kusinga amasavu g’endiga ennume.
23 Nokuti kumukira kwakafanana nechivi chokuvuka, uye kusindimara kwakafanana nechivi chokunamata zvifananidzo. Nemhaka yokuti wakaramba shoko raJehovha, naiye akuramba kuti usaramba uri mambo.”
Kubanga obujeemu buli ng’ekibi eky’okusamira, era n’obukakanyavu buli ng’ekibi eky’okusinza bakatonda abalala. Kubanga ojeemedde ekigambo kya Mukama, naye akugaanye okuba kabaka.”
24 Ipapo Sauro akati kuna Samueri, “Ndatadza, ndamukira murayiro waJehovha nezvamakandirayira. Ndakanga ndichitya vanhu nokudaro ndakateerera mashoko avo.
Awo Sawulo n’agamba Samwiri nti, “Nyonoonye. Najeemedde ekiragiro kya Mukama era n’ebigambo byo, kubanga natidde abantu ne ŋŋendera ku bigambo byabwe.
25 Zvino ndinokukumbirisai, ndikanganwirei chivi changu mugodzoka neni, kuti ndigononamata Jehovha.”
Kaakano nkusaba, osonyiwe ekibi kyange, okomewo nange nsobole okusinza Mukama.”
26 Asi Samueri akati kwaari, “Handingadzoki newe. Wakaramba shoko raJehovha, saka Jehovha akuramba kuti uve mambo wavaIsraeri!”
Naye Samwiri n’amuddamu nti, “Sijja kuddayo naawe kubanga ovudde ku kigambo kya Mukama, ne Mukama akugaanye okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri.”
27 Samueri akati atendeuka kuti abve, Sauro akabata mupendero wenguo yake, ukabvaruka.
Awo Samwiri bwe yakyuka okugenda, Sawulo n’akwata ekirenge ky’ekyambalo kye, ne kiyulika.
28 Samueri akati kwaari, “Jehovha abvarura umambo hweIsraeri kubva kwauri nhasi uye ahupa kuno mumwe wavavakidzani vako, kuna iye ari nani panewe.
Samwiri n’amugamba nti, “Mukama akuyuzizzaako obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri leero, n’abuwa omu ku baliraanwa bo akusinga.
29 Iye Kubwinya kwaIsraeri haangarevi nhema kana kushandura pfungwa dzake; nokuti haasi munhu, kuti angashandura pfungwa dzake.”
Oyo ayitibwa Ekitiibwa kya Isirayiri talimba ate takyusakyusa kirowoozo kye, kubanga si muntu nti anaakyusa ekirowoozo kye.”
30 Sauro akati, “Ndatadza hangu. Asi ndapota ndikudzei henyu pamberi pavakuru vavanhu vangu napamberi pavaIsraeri; dzokai neni kuitira kuti ndigononamata Jehovha Mwari wenyu.”
Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Nyonoonye, naye nzisaamu ekitiibwa mu maaso g’abakadde b’abantu bange, ne mu maaso ga Isirayiri, oddeyo nange, nsinze Mukama Katonda wo.”
31 Saka Samueri akadzokera naSauro, ipapo Sauro akanamata Jehovha.
Awo Samwiri n’addayo ne Sawulo, Sawulo n’asinza Mukama.
32 Zvino Samueri akati, “Uyai naAgagi mambo wavaAmareki kwandiri.” Agagi akauya kwaari akanyatsofara, achifunga kuti, “Zvirokwazvo kuvava kworufu kwapfuura.”
Samwiri n’alagira nti, “Mundeetere Agagi kabaka w’Abamaleki.” Agagi n’ajja gy’ali ng’akankana naye ng’agamba mu mutima gwe nti, “Mazima ddala obubalagaze bw’okufa buyise.”
33 Asi Samueri akati, “Munondo wako sezvo wakaita kuti vakadzi vashaye vana, saizvozvo mai vako vachashayiwa mwana pakati pavakadzi.” Zvino Samueri akauraya Agagi pamberi paJehovha paGirigari.
Naye Samwiri n’ayogera nti, “Ng’ekitala kyo bwe kyaleetera abakazi abangi obutaba na baana, ne nnyoko talibeera na mwana.” Awo Samwiri n’atemaatema Agagi n’amuttira mu maaso ga Mukama e Girugaali.
34 Ipapo Samueri akabva akaenda kuRama, asi Sauro akakwidza akaenda kumba kwake paGibhea raSauro.
Samwiri n’alyoka agenda e Laama, naye Sawulo ye n’agenda ewuwe mu Gibea ekya Sawulo.
35 Kusvikira pazuva rakafa Samueri, haana kuzomboenda kundoona Sauro, kunyange Samueri akamuchema hake. Uye Jehovha akazvidemba kuti akanga aita kuti Sauro ave mambo wavaIsraeri.
Samwiri yanakuwala nnyo olwa Sawulo, era teyaddayo kulabagana ne Sawulo okutuusa Samwiri lwe yafa. Mukama n’anyolwa olw’okufuula Sawulo kabaka wa Isirayiri.
