< 1 Samweli 28 >
1 Ikawa katika siku hizo Wafilisti walikusanya majeshi yao pamoja kwa ajili ya vita, wapigane na Israeli. Akishi akamwambia Daudi, “Ujue kwa hakika kwamba utakwenda nami ndani ya jeshi, wewe na watu wako.”
Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe fakataha ʻe he kakai Filisitia honau ngaahi kautau ki he tau, kenau tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAkisi kia Tevita, “Ko eni ke ke ʻilo pau te tau ō mo koe ki he tau, ʻa koe mo ho kau tangata.”
2 Naye Daudi akamwambia Akishi, “Sasa utajua kile ambacho mtumishi wako anaweza kufanya.” Akishi akamwambia Daudi, “Basi sasa, nitakufanya uwe mlinzi wangu binafsi daima.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻAkisi, “Ko e moʻoni te ke ʻilo pau ʻaia ʻoku mafai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAkisi kia Tevita, “Ko ia te u fakanofo koe koe tauhi ʻo hoku ʻulu ʻo taʻengata.
3 Samweli alikuwa amefariki; Waisraeli wote walimwomboleza na kumzika huko Rama, katika mji wake mwenyewe. Wakati huo Sauli alikuwa amewafukuza kutoka nchini wote walioongea na wafu au pepo.
Ka ko eni kuo pekia ʻa Samuela, pea naʻe tēngihia ia ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻonau tanu ia ʻi Lama, ʻio, ʻi heʻene kolo nofoʻanga ʻaʻana. Pea kuo ʻosi hono kapusi ʻe Saula mei he fonua ʻakinautolu naʻe maʻu laumālie kovi, mo e kau kikite loi.
4 Wafilisti walijikusanya wao wenyewe wakaja na kuweka kambi huko Shunemu; na Sauli akawakusanya Israeli wote pamoja, na wakaweka kambi yao huko Gilboa.
Pea fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai Filisitia, ʻonau haʻu ʻo ʻapitanga ʻi Sunemi: pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻe Saula ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻonau haʻu ʻo ʻapitanga ʻi Kilipoa.
5 Sauli alipoona jeshi la Wafilisti, aliogopa na moyo wake ukatetemeka sana.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Saula ki he tau ʻae Filisitia, naʻe manavahē ia, pea tetetete lahi hono loto.
6 Sauli alipomuomba BWANA kwa ajili ya msaada, BWANA hakumjibu - si kwa ndoto wala kwa Urimu, wala kwa manabii.
Pea ʻi he fehuʻi ʻa Saula kia Sihova, naʻe ʻikai tali ia ʻe Sihova, ʻi ha misi, pe ʻi he ʻUlimi pe ʻi he kau palōfita.
7 Ndipo Sauli akawaambia watumishi wake, “Mnitafutie mwanamke ambaye anaweza kuongea na wafu, ili ni mwendee na kutafuta msaada wake.” Watumishi wake wakamwambia, “Tazama, yupo mwanamke huko Endori awezaye kuongea na wafu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Mou kumi kiate au ha fefine ʻoku ʻiate ia ha laumālie kovi, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu atu, pea fehuʻi kiate ia.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ai ʻae fefine ʻi Enitoa ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae laumālie kovi.”
8 Basi Sauli akajigeuza, akavaa nguo nyingine tofauti, akaondoka yeye pamoja na watu wawili; wakamwendea yule mwanamke wakati wa usiku. Akasema, “Nitabirie, nakuomba, kwa kuongea na wafu, na uniinulie yule nitakayekutajia.”
Pea naʻe fakapuli ia ʻe Saula, ʻo ne ʻai ʻae ngaahi kofu kehe, pea ʻalu ia, mo e ongo tangata, pea naʻa nau hoko atu ki he fefine ʻi he poʻuli: pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakahā kiate au ʻi he laumālie, pea ke ʻohake kiate au, ʻaia te u tala kiate koe.”
9 Yule mwanamke akamwambia, “Tazama, unajua alichofanya Sauli, jinsi alivyowafukuza kutoka katika nchi wanaoongea na wafu au mizimu. Basi kwa nini mnatega mtego kwa ajili ya uhai wangu, ili kuniua?”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoku ke ʻilo ʻaia kuo fai ʻe Saula, koeʻuhi ko ʻene tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi laumālie kovi, mo e kau kikite, mei he fonua: ko ia ko e hā ʻoku ke tō ai ʻae tauhele ki heʻeku moʻui, ke u mate ai au?”
10 Sauli akamwapia kwa BWANA na kusema, “Kama BWANA aishivyo, hakuna adhabu utakayopata kutokana na jambo hili.”
Pea naʻe fuakava ʻa Saula kiate ia ʻia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻe ʻikai hoko ha tautea kiate koe, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni.”
11 Kisha yule mwanamke akasema, “Je, nikuinulie nani?” Sauli akasema, “Niinulie Samweli.”
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe he fefine kiate ia, “Ko hai ia te u ʻohake kiate koe?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOhake kiate au ʻa Samuela.”
12 Yule mwanamke alipomwona Samweli, akalia kwa sauti kuu na kusema na Sauli, akisema, “Kwa nini umenidanganya? Maana wewe ni Sauli.”
Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻae fefine kia Samuela, naʻe tangi kalanga ʻo leʻo lahi ia: pea lea ʻae fefine kia Saula, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke kākaaʻi ai au? He ko Saula koe.”
13 Mfalme akamwambia, “Usiogope. Unaona kitu gani?” Yule mwanamke akamwambia Sauli, “Naona mungu akitoka katika nchi.” Akamuuliza mwanamke,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē: he ko e hā kuo ke mamata ai?” Pea pehē ʻe he fefine kia Saula, “Kuo u mamata ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoku ʻalu hake mei he kelekele.”
14 “Je, anafanana na nani?” Mwanamke akajibu, “Mtu mzee anazuka; naye amevaa kanzu.” Sauli akafahamu kuwa huyo ni Samweli, naye Sauli akainamisha uso wake hadi chini akionesha heshima.
Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e hā hono anga?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku ʻalu hake ʻae tangata motuʻa; pea ʻoku pūlou ʻaki ia ʻae pulupulu.” Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Saula ko Samuela ia, pea tulolo ia mo hono fofonga ki he kelekele, pea naʻa ne punou hifo ia.
15 Samweli akamwambia Sauli, “Kwa nini umenisumbua na kuniinua juu?” Sauli akajibu, “Nimetaabika sana, maana Wafilisti wamepanga vita dhidi yangu, na Mungu ameniacha na hanipi majibu tena, si kwa manabii, wala kwa ndoto. Kwa hiyo nimekuita, ili unijulishe kile nitakachofanya.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela kia Saula, “Ko e hā kuo ke ueʻi ai au ke ʻohake au?” Pea talaange ʻe Saula, “Kuo u mamahi lahi; he ʻoku tauʻi au ʻe he kakai Filisitia, pea kuo ʻalu ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate au, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne kei talia au, ʻi he kau palōfita, pe ʻi he ngaahi misi: ko ia kuo u ui ai kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke ke fakahā kiate au ʻaia ʻoku lelei ke u fai.”
16 Samweli akasema, “Kwa kuwa BWANA amekuacha, basi unaniuliza nini, naye amekuwa adui yako?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela, “Pea ko e hā kuo ke fehuʻi ai kiate au, ka kuo ʻalu ʻa Sihova ʻiate koe, pea kuo hoko ia ko ho fili?
17 BWANA amekutendea kile alichosema kuwa angekifanya. BWANA amerarua ufalme kutoka mkononi mwako na amempa ufalme mtu mwingine - amempa Daudi.
Pea kuo fai ʻe Sihova kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko ʻene lea ʻiate au: he kuo hae ʻe Sihova ʻae puleʻanga mei ho nima, ʻo ne foaki ia ki ho kaungāʻapi, ʻio, kia Tevita:
18 Kwa sababu hukuitii sauti ya BWANA na hukutekeleza hasira yake kali juu ya Amaleki, kwa hiyo leo naye amefanya hili kwako.
Ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te ke talangofua ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova, pea fai kia ʻAmaleki hono houhau lahi, ko ia kuo fai ai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni kiate koe he ʻaho ni.
19 Zaidi ya hayo, BWANA atamweka Israeli pamoja na wewe katika mkono wa Wafilisti. Kesho wewe na wanao mtakuwa pamoja nami. BWANA pia ataliweka jeshi la Israeli katika mkono wa Wafilisti.”
Pea ko eni foki ʻe tukuange ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻIsileli mo koe ki he nima ʻoe kakai Filisitia: pea ko koe mo ho ngaahi foha te mou ʻiate au ʻapongipongi: pea ʻe tukuange foki ʻe Sihova ʻae tau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he nima ʻoe kakai Filisitia.”
20 Ndipo ghafla Sauli alianguka chini kifudifudi na aliogopa kwa sababu ya yale maneno ya Samweli. Aliishiwa nguvu mwilini mwake, kwa kuwa siku hiyo alikuwa hajala chakula, hata kwa usiku huo wote.
Pea naʻe tō lafalafa leva ʻa Saula ki he kelekele, pea ne manavahē lahi, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻa Samuela, pea naʻe ʻikai toe ha mālohi ʻiate ia; he naʻe teʻeki kai ia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa ko ia, pe ʻi he pō kotoa.”
21 Ndipo yule mwanamke akaja kwa Sauli na akaona kwamba Sauli amepata shida, naye akamwambia, “Tazama, mjakazi wako ameisikiliza sauti yako; Nimeyaweka maisha yangu mkononi mwangu na nimeyasikiliza maneno uliyoniambia.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae fefine kia Saula, ʻo ne vakai ʻoku mamahi lahi, pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo fai talangofua ʻa hoʻo kaunanga ki ho leʻo, pea kuo u ʻai ʻeku moʻui ki hoku nima, pea kuo u tokanga ki hoʻo ngaahi lea ʻaia naʻa ke lea kiate au.”
22 Hivyo basi, nakusihi, sikiliza pia sauti ya mjakazi wako, na uniruhusu nilete chakula kidogo mbele yako. Ule ili upate nguvu za kwenda kule uendako.”
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tokanga koe foki ki he leʻo ʻo hoʻo kaunanga, pea tuku ke u ʻai ʻae konga mā siʻi ʻi ho ʻao; pea ke kai koeʻuhi ke ke maʻu ʻae mālohi ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ʻi ho hala.
23 Lakini Sauli alikataa na kusema, “Sitakula.” Lakini watumishi wake, pamoja na yule mwanamke, wakamlazimisha hatimaye alisikiliza sauti zao. Hivyo aliinuka kutoka chini na kukaa kitandani.
Ka naʻe fakafisi ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u kai.” Ka ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki fakataha mo e fefine naʻa nau fakalotoʻi ia. Ko ia naʻe tuʻu hake ia mei he kelekele, pea hekeheka ki he mohenga
24 Yule mwanamke alikuwa na ndama mnono hapo nyumbani; akafanya haraka na kumchinja; akachua unga, akaukanda, na akatengeneza mikate isiyotiwa chachu kwa unga huo.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe he fefine ʻae ʻuhiki pulu sino ʻi he fale; pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo tāmateʻi ia, ʻo ne ʻave ʻae mahoaʻa, pea natu ia, pea taʻo ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi foʻi mā taʻefakalēvani:
25 Akaileta mbele ya Sauli na watumishi wake, nao wakala. Baaadaye waliinuka na kuondoka usiku huo.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ia ki he ʻao ʻo Saula, pea ki he ʻao ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki; pea naʻa nau kai. Hili ia naʻa nau tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu ʻi he pō ko ia.
