1 Samweli 12

1 Samweli aksema na Israeli wote, “Nimesikia kila kitu mlichoniambia, na nimemweka mfalme juu yenu.

and to say Samuel to(wards) all Israel behold to hear: obey in/on/with voice your to/for all which to say to/for me and to reign upon you king

2 Basi, yupo hapa mfalme aliyeko mbele yenu, mimi nimezeeka nakujaa mvi; na watoto wangu wako pamoja nanyi. Nimekuwa kiongozi wenu tangu ujana wangu hadi leo.

and now behold [the] king to go: walk to/for face: before your and I be old and be gray and son: child my behold they with you and I to go: walk to/for face: before your from youth my till [the] day [the] this

3 Mimi niko hapa, Nishuhudieni mbele za BWANA na mbele za mtiwa mafuta wake. Nimechukua ng'ombe wa nani? Nimechukua punda wa nani? Ni nani nimemdhulumu? Nimemwonea nani? Nimepokea rushwa kutoka mikono ya nani inipofushe macho yangu? Nishuhudieni, nami nitawarudishia

look! I to answer in/on/with me before LORD and before anointed his [obj] cattle who? to take: take and donkey who? to take: take and [obj] who? to oppress [obj] who? to crush and from hand who? to take: take ransom and to conceal eye my in/on/with him and to return: rescue to/for you

4 Nao wakasema, Haujatudanganya, kutuonea, au kuiba chochote kutoka mkono wa mtu yeyote.”

and to say not to oppress us and not to crush us and not to take: take from hand man: anyone anything

5 Akawaambia, “BWANA ni shahidi juu yenu, na masihi wake leo ni shahidi, kwamba hamkuona kitu mkononi mwangu.” Na wao wakajibu, “BWANAni shahidi.”

and to say to(wards) them witness LORD in/on/with you and witness anointed his [the] day: today [the] this for not to find in/on/with hand my anything and to say witness

6 Samweli akawaambia watu, “BWANA ndiye aliyemteua Musa na Haruni, na ndiye aliyewatoa baba zenu kutoka nchi ya Misri.

and to say Samuel to(wards) [the] people LORD which to make [obj] Moses and [obj] Aaron and which to ascend: establish [obj] father your from land: country/planet Egypt

7 Basi sasa, jihudhurisheni, ili niweze kutoa utetezi juu yenu kwa BWANA kuhusu matendo yote ya haki ya BWANA, ambayo aliwafanyia ninyi na baba zenu.

and now to stand and to judge with you to/for face: before LORD [obj] all righteousness LORD which to make: do with you and with father your

8 Yakobo alipokuwa amefika Misri, na babu zenu walimlilia BWANA. BWANA alimtuma Musa na Haruni, waliowaongoza babu zenu kutoka Misri na wakaja kukaa sehemu hii.

like/as as which to come (in): come Jacob Egypt and to cry out father your to(wards) LORD and to send: depart LORD [obj] Moses and [obj] Aaron and to come out: send [obj] father your from Egypt and to dwell them in/on/with place [the] this

9 Lakini walimsahau BWANA Mungu wao; akawauza katika mkono wa Sisera, jemedari wa majeshi ya Hazori, katika mkono wa Wafilisti, na katika mkono wa mfalme wa Moabu; hawa wote walipigana na babu zenu.

and to forget [obj] LORD God their and to sell [obj] them in/on/with hand: power Sisera ruler army Hazor and in/on/with hand: power Philistine and in/on/with hand: power king Moab and to fight in/on/with them

10 Wakamlilia BWANA mkasema, 'Tumefanya dhambi, kwa sababu tumemwacha BWANA na tumewatumikia Mabaali na Mashtorethi. Lakini sasa tuokoe kutoka mikono ya maadui zetu, na tutakutumikia.'

and to cry out to(wards) LORD (and to say *Q(K)*) to sin for to leave: forsake [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] [the] Baal and [obj] [the] Ashtaroth and now to rescue us from hand: power enemy our and to serve you

11 Hivyo BWANA akawatuma Yerubu Baali, Bedani, Yefta na Samweli, na akawapa ushindi dhidi ya maadui zenu wote waliowazunguka, na kwamba mliishi kwa amani.

and to send: depart LORD [obj] Jerubbaal and [obj] Barak and [obj] Jephthah and [obj] Samuel and to rescue [obj] you from hand: power enemy your from around: side and to dwell security

12 Mlipoona kwamba Nahashi mfalme wa watu wa Amoni amekuja dhidi yenu, mkaniambia, 'Hapana! Badala yake, mfalme awepo atawale juu yetu'- ingawa BWANA, Mungu wenu, alikuwa mfalme wenu.

and to see: see for Nahash king son: descendant/people Ammon to come (in): come upon you and to say to/for me not for king to reign upon us and LORD God your king your

13 Sasa yupo hapa mfalme ambaye mmemchagua, mliyemuomba na ambaye BWANA amemteua awe mfalme juu yenu.

and now behold [the] king which to choose which to ask and behold to give: put LORD upon you king

14 Ikiwa mnamhofu BWANA, mtumikieni, muitii sauti yake, msikaidi amri ya BWANA, basi wote wawili ninyi na mfalme anayewatawala mtakuwa wafuasi wa BWANA Mungu wenu.

if to fear: revere [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] him and to hear: obey in/on/with voice his and not to rebel [obj] lip: word LORD and to be also you(m. p.) and also [the] king which to reign upon you after LORD God your

15 Kama hamtaitii sauti ya BWANA, mkaasi amri za BWANA, ndipo mkono wa BWANA utakuwa juu yenu, kama ulivyokuwa juu ya babu zenu.

and if not to hear: obey in/on/with voice LORD and to rebel [obj] lip: word LORD and to be hand: power LORD in/on/with you and in/on/with father your

16 Hata sasa muwepo kabisa na muone jambo kubwa ambalo BWANA atalifanya mbele ya macho yenu.

also now to stand and to see: see [obj] [the] word: thing [the] great: large [the] this which LORD to make: do to/for eye: before(the eyes) your

17 Je, leo si mavuno ya ngano? Nitamwomba BWANA, naye ataleta ngurumo na mvua. Ndipo mtajua na kuona kwamba uovu wenu ni mwingi, mlioufanya machoni pa BWANA, kujiombea mfalme wenu ninyi wenyewe.”

not harvest wheat [the] day to call: call to to(wards) LORD and to give: give voice: thunder and rain and to know and to see: see for distress: evil your many which to make: do in/on/with eye: seeing LORD to/for to ask to/for you king

18 Hivyo Samweli akamwomba BWANA; na siku iyo hiyo BWANA akatuma ngurumo na mvua. Ndipo watu wote wakamwogopa sana BWANA pamoja na Samweli.

and to call: call to Samuel to(wards) LORD and to give: give LORD voice: thunder and rain in/on/with day [the] he/she/it and to fear: revere all [the] people much [obj] LORD and [obj] Samuel

19 Kisha watu wote wakamwambia Samweli, “Waombee watumishi wako kwa BWANA Mungu wako, ili tusife. Kwa maana tumeongeza uovu huu juu ya dhambi zetu tulipojiombea mfalme sisi wenyewe.”

and to say all [the] people to(wards) Samuel to pray about/through/for servant/slave your to(wards) LORD God your and not to die for to add upon all sin our distress: evil to/for to ask to/for us king

20 Samweli akawajibu, “Msiogope. Mmefanya uovu wote huu, lakini msigeukie mbali na BWANA, bali mtumikieni BWANA kwa moyo wenu wote.

and to say Samuel to(wards) [the] people not to fear you(m. p.) to make: do [obj] all [the] distress: evil [the] this surely not to turn aside: turn aside from after LORD and to serve [obj] LORD in/on/with all heart your

21 Wala msigeuke na kufuata mambo matupu yasiyo na faida au kuwaokoa, kwa sababu ni ubatili.

and not to turn aside: turn aside for after [the] formlessness which not to gain and not to rescue for formlessness they(masc.)

22 Kwa ajili ya jina lake kuu, BWANA hatawakataa watu wake, kwa sababu imempendeza BWANA kuwafanya ninyi kuwa watu kwa ajili yake.

for not to leave LORD [obj] people his in/on/with for the sake of name his [the] great: large for be willing LORD to/for to make [obj] you to/for him to/for people

23 Kwangu mimi, iwe mbali nami kumtenda BWANA dhambi kwa kuacha kuwaombea ninyi. Badala yake, nitawafundisha njia iliyo njema na sahihi.

also I forbid to/for me from to sin to/for LORD from to cease to/for to pray about/through/for you and to show [obj] you in/on/with way: conduct [the] pleasant and [the] upright

24 Mcheni BWANA tu na mtumikieni yeye katika kweli kwa moyo wenu wote. Tafakarini mambo makuu aliyowatendeeni.

surely to fear: revere [obj] LORD and to serve [obj] him in/on/with truth: faithful in/on/with all heart your for to see: examine [obj] which to magnify with you

25 Lakini kama mtadumu kufanya uovu, ninyi wote na mfalme wenu mtaangamizwa.”

and if be evil be evil also you(m. p.) also king your to snatch
