1 Samweli 10
1 Ndipo Samweli akachukua chupa ndogo ya mafuta na kuyamimina juu ya kichwa cha Sauli, akambusu, akisema, “Je, Bwana hakukutia mafuta uwe kiongozi juu ya watu wake Israeli?
And he took Samuel [the] flask of oil and he poured [it] on head his and he kissed him and he said ¿ In-deed he has anointed you Yahweh (to ruler over people his over of Israel and you she will retain among a people Yahweh and you you deliver him from [the] hand of enemies its from round about and this of you [will be] the sign he has anointed you Yahweh *X*) over inheritance his to ruler.
2 Utakapoondoka kwangu leo, utakutana na watu wawili karibu na kaburi la Raheli, huko Selsa kwenye mpaka wa Benyamini. Watakuambia, ‘Punda wale uliotoka kwenda kuwatafuta, wamekwisha kupatikana. Sasa baba yako ameacha kufikiri kuhusu punda na sasa ana hofu kukuhusu wewe. Anauliza, “Nitafanyaje kuhusu mwanangu?”’
When going you this day from with me and you will find two men near [the] tomb of Rachel in [the] territory of Benjamin at Zelzah and they will say to you they have been found the she-asses which you went to seek and there! he has abandoned father your [the] matter of the she-asses and he is anxious to you saying what? will I do for son my.
3 “Kisha utakwenda mbele kutoka hapa mpaka uufikie mwaloni wa Tabori. Watu watatu wanaopanda kwa Mungu huko Betheli watakutana nawe hapo. Mmoja atakuwa amechukua wana-mbuzi watatu, mwingine mikate mitatu, na mwingine kiriba cha divai.
And you will pass on from there and beyond and you will come to [the] great tree of Tabor and they will find you there three men going up to God Beth-el one [will be] carrying - three kids and one [will be] carrying three round loaves of bread and one [will be] carrying a skin of wine.
4 Watakusalimu na kukupa mikate miwili, ambayo utaipokea kutoka kwao.
And they will ask of you to welfare and they will give to you two bread[s] and you will take [them] from hand their.
5 “Baada ya hayo utakwenda Gibea ya Mungu, ambapo hapo kuna kambi ya Wafilisti. Unapokaribia mji utakutana na kundi la manabii wakiteremka kutoka mahali pa juu wakiwa na vinubi, matari, filimbi na zeze vikipigwa mbele yao, nao watakuwa wakitoa unabii.
After thus you will come Gibeah of God where [are] there [the] garrisons of [the] Philistines and it will be when coming you there the city and you will meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place and [will be] before them lyre and tambourine and flute and harp and they [will be] prophesying.
6 Roho wa Bwana atakuja juu yako kwa nguvu, nawe utatoa unabii pamoja nao; nawe utageuzwa kuwa mtu wa tofauti.
And it will rush on you [the] spirit of Yahweh and you will prophesy with them and you will be changed into a man another.
7 Mara ishara hizi zitakapotimizwa, fanya lolote mkono wako upasao kufanya, kwa kuwa Mungu yu pamoja nawe.
And it will be that (they will come *Q(k)*) the signs these to you do for yourself [that] which it will find hand your for God [is] with you.
8 “Tangulia kushuka mbele yangu mpaka Gilgali. Hakika nami nitateremka nikujie ili kutoa dhabihu za sadaka za kuteketezwa na dhabihu za amani, lakini lazima ungoje kwa siku saba hata nitakapokujia na kukuambia likupasalo kufanya.”
And you will go down before me Gilgal and there! I [am] about to come down to you to offer up burnt offerings to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings seven days may you wait until come I to you and I will make known to you [that] which you will do.
9 Ikawa Sauli alipogeuka kumwacha Samweli, Mungu aliubadilisha moyo wa Sauli, na ishara hizi zote zikatimizwa siku ile.
And it was when turned he shoulder his to go from with Samuel and he changed for him God a heart another and they came all the signs these on the day that.
10 Walipofika Gibea, akakutana na kundi la manabii. Roho wa Mungu akaja juu yake kwa nguvu, naye akajiunga nao katika kutoa unabii kwao.
And they came there Gibeah towards and there! a company of prophets to meet him and it rushed on him [the] spirit of God and he prophesied in midst of them.
11 Ikawa wale wote waliomfahamu hapo mwanzo walipomwona akitoa unabii pamoja na manabii, wakaulizana, “Ni nini hiki kilichomtokea mwana wa Kishi? Je, Sauli naye pia yumo miongoni mwa manabii?”
And it was every [one who] knew him from yesterday three days ago and they saw and there! with prophets [he is] prophesying and it said the people each to neighbor his what? this has it happened to [the] son of Kish ¿ also [is] Saul among the prophets.
12 Mtu mmoja ambaye aliishi huko akajibu, “Je, naye baba yao ni nani?” Basi ikawa mithali, kusema, “Je, Sauli pia yumo miongoni mwa manabii?”
And he answered a man from there and he said and who? [is] father their there-fore it became a proverb ¿ also [is] Saul among the prophets.
13 Baada ya Sauli kumaliza kutoa unabii, alikwenda mahali pa juu.
And he finished from prophesying and he came the high place.
14 Basi babaye mdogo akamuuliza Sauli na mtumishi wake, “Je, mlikuwa wapi?” Akajibu, “Tulikuwa tukiwatafuta punda. Lakini tulipoona hawapatikani, tulikwenda kwa Samweli.”
And he said [the] uncle of Saul to him and to servant his where? did you go and he said to seek the she-asses and we saw that there not and we went to Samuel.
15 Babaye mdogo Sauli akasema, “Niambie Samweli amekuambia nini.”
And he said [the] uncle of Saul tell! please to me what? did he say to you Samuel.
16 Sauli akajibu, “Alituhakikishia kwamba punda wamepatikana.” Lakini hakumwambia babaye mdogo kila kitu Samweli alichomwambia kuhusu ufalme.
And he said Saul to uncle his certainly he told to us that they had been found the she-asses and [the] word of the kingship not he told to him which he had said Samuel.
17 Samweli akawaita watu wa Israeli kuja kwa Bwana huko Mispa,
And he called together Samuel the people to Yahweh Mizpah.
18 naye akawaambia, “Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli: ‘Niliwatoa Israeli kutoka Misri, nami niliwaokoa toka nguvu za Misri na falme zote zilizowaonea.’
And he said - to [the] people of Israel. Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel I I brought up Israel from Egypt and I delivered you from [the] hand of Egypt and from [the] hand of all the kingdoms that were oppressing you.
19 Lakini sasa mmemkataa Mungu wenu, ambaye anawaokoa toka katika maafa yenu yote na taabu zenu zote. Nanyi mmesema, ‘Hapana, tuteulie mfalme atutawale.’ Sasa basi, jihudhurisheni wenyewe mbele za Bwana kwa kabila zenu na kwa koo zenu.”
And you this day you have rejected God your who he [is] a deliverer of you from all calamities your and troubles your and you have said to him for a king you will appoint over us and therefore present yourselves before Yahweh to tribes your and to families your.
20 Samweli alipoyasogeza makabila yote ya Israeli, kabila la Benyamini likachaguliwa.
And he brought near Samuel all [the] tribes of Israel and it was taken by lot [the] tribe of Benjamin.
21 Kisha akalisogeza mbele kabila la Benyamini, ukoo kwa ukoo, nao ukoo wa Matri ukachaguliwa. Mwishoni Sauli mwana wa Kishi akachaguliwa. Lakini walipomtafuta, hakuonekana.
And he brought near [the] tribe of Benjamin (to families its *Q(K)*) and it was taken by lot [the] clan of Matri and he was taken by lot Saul [the] son of Kish and they sought him and not he was found.
22 Wakazidi kuuliza kwa Bwana, “Je, huyo mtu amekwisha kufika hapa?” Naye Bwana akasema, “Ndiyo, amejificha katikati ya mizigo.”
And they enquired again by Yahweh ¿ has he come yet here [the] man. And he said Yahweh here! he [is] hiding himself into the baggage.
23 Wakakimbia na kumleta kutoka huko, naye aliposimama katikati ya watu, alikuwa mrefu kuliko watu wengine wote.
And they ran and they took him from there and he presented himself in among the people and he was tall more than all the people from shoulder his and up-wards.
24 Samweli akawaambia watu wote, “Je, mnamwona mtu ambaye Bwana amemchagua? Hayupo aliye kama yeye miongoni mwa watu wote.” Ndipo watu wakapiga kelele, wakasema, “Mfalme na aishi maisha marefu.”
And he said Samuel to all the people ¿ do you see [the one] whom he has chosen him Yahweh for there not [is] like him among all the people and they shouted all the people and they said may he live the king.
25 Samweli akawaeleza watu madaraka ya ufalme. Akayaandika kwenye kitabu na kuweka mbele za Bwana. Kisha Samweli akawaruhusu watu, kila mmoja aende nyumbani kwake.
And he spoke Samuel to the people [the] right[s] of the kingship and he wrote in the book and he set [it] before Yahweh and he sent away Samuel all the people each man to own house his.
26 Sauli pia akaenda nyumbani kwake huko Gibea, akisindikizwa na watu hodari ambao Mungu alikuwa amegusa mioyo yao.
And also Saul he went to own house his Gibeah towards and they went with him the army which he had touched God heart their.
27 Lakini baadhi ya watu wakorofi walisema, “Huyu mtu atawezaje kutuokoa?” Wakamdharau na wala hawakumletea zawadi. Lakini Sauli akanyamaza kimya.
And sons of worthlessness they said what? will he deliver us this one and they despised him and not they brought to him a gift and he was like [one who] kept silent.
