1 Samuel 10

1 Nang magkagayo'y kinuha ni Samuel ang sisidlan ng langis, at ibinuhos sa ulo niya, at hinagkan niya siya, at sinabi, Hindi ba ang Panginoon ang nagpahid sa iyo ng langis upang maging prinsipe ka sa kaniyang mana?

And Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured [it] on his head, and kissed him, and said to him, Has not the Lord anointed you for a ruler over his people, over Israel? and you shall rule amongst the people of the Lord, and you shall save them out of the hand of their enemies; and this [shall be] the sign to you that the Lord has anointed you for a ruler over his inheritance.

2 Paghiwalay mo sa akin ngayon, ay masusumpungan mo nga ang dalawang lalake sa siping ng libingan ni Rachel, sa hangganan ng Benjamin sa Selsah; at sasabihin nila sa iyo, Ang mga asno na iyong hinahanap ay nasumpungan na; at, narito, niwalang bahala ng iyong ama ang mga asno, at ang inaalaala ay kayo, na sinasabi, Paano ang aking gagawin sa aking anak?

[As soon] as you shall have departed this day from me, you shall find two men by the burial-place of Rachel on the mount of Benjamin, exulting greatly; and they shall say to you, The asses are found which you went to seek; and, behold, your father has given up the matter of the asses, and he is anxious for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

3 Kung magkagayo'y magpapatuloy ka mula roon, at darating ka sa ensina ng Tabor; at masasalubong ka roon ng tatlong lalake na inaahon ang Dios sa Beth-el, ang isa'y may dalang tatlong batang kambing, at ang isa'y may dalang tatlong tinapay, at ang isa'y may dalang isang balat na sisidlan ng alak:

And you shall depart thence, and shall go beyond that as far as the oak of Thabor, and you shall find there three men going up to God to Baethel, one bearing three kids, and another bearing three vessels of bread, and another bearing a bottle of wine.

4 At babatiin ka nila, at bibigyan ka ng dalawang tinapay, na iyong tatanggapin sa kanilang kamay.

And they shall ask you how you do, and shall give you two presents of bread, and you shall receive them of their hand.

5 Pagkatapos ay darating ka sa burol ng Dios, na nandoon ang isang pulutong ng mga Filisteo: at mangyayari pagdating mo roon sa bayan, na makakasalubong ka ng isang pulutong na mga propeta na lumulusong mula sa mataas na dako, na may salterio, at pandereta, at flauta, at alpa sa harap nila; at sila'y magsisipanghula.

And afterward you shall go to the hill of God, where is the encampment of the Philistines; there [is] Nasib the Philistine: an it shall come to pass when you shall have entered into the city, that you shall meet a band of prophets coming down from the Bama; and before them will be lutes, and a drum, and a pipe, and a harp, and they shall prophesy.

6 At ang Espiritu ng Panginoon ay makapangyarihang sasaiyo, at manghuhula kang kasama nila, at ikaw ay magiging ibang lalake.

And the Spirit of the Lord shall come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.

7 At mano nawa, na pagka ang mga tandang ito ay mangyari sa iyo, na gawin mo ang idudulot ng pagkakataon; sapagka't ang Dios ay sumasaiyo.

And it shall come to pass when these signs shall come upon you, —[then] do you whatever your hand shall find, because God [is] with you.

8 At ikaw ay lulusong na una sa akin sa Gilgal; at, narito, lulusungin kita, upang maghandog ng mga handog na susunugin, at maghain ng mga hain na mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan: pitong araw na maghihintay ka, hanggang sa ako'y pumaroon sa iyo, at ituro sa iyo kung ano ang iyong gagawin.

And you shall go down in front of Galgal, and behold, I come down to you to offer a whole burnt offering and peace-offerings: seven days shall you wait until I shall come to you, and I will make known to you what you shall do.

9 At nangyaring gayon, na nang kaniyang matalikdan na iwan niya si Samuel, ay binigyan siya ng Dios ng ibang puso: at ang lahat na tandang yaon ay nangyari sa araw na yaon.

And it came to pass when he turned his back to depart from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all these signs came to pass in that day.

10 At nang sila'y dumating doon sa burol, narito, isang pulutong na mga propeta ay nasasalubong niya; at ang Espiritu ng Dios ay makapangyarihang suma kaniya, at siya'y nanghula sa gitna nila.

And he comes thence to the hill, and behold a band of prophets opposite to him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied in the midst of them.

11 At nangyari nang makita siya ng lahat na nakakakilala sa kaniya nang una, na, narito siya'y nanghuhulang kasama ng mga propeta, ay nagsalisalitaan ang bayan, Ano itong nangyari sa anak ni Cis? Si Saul ba ay nasa gitna rin ng mga propeta?

And all that had known him before came, and saw, and behold, he [was] in the midst of the prophets: and the people said every one to his neighbour, What [is] this that has happened to the son of Kis? [is] Saul also amongst the prophets?

12 At isang taga dakong yaon ay sumagot at nagsabi, At sino ang kanilang ama? Kaya't naging kawikaan, Si Saul ba ay nasa gitna rin ng mga propeta?

And one of them answered and said, And who [is] his father? and therefore it became a proverb, [Is] Saul also amongst the prophets?

13 At nang siya'y makatapos ng panghuhula, siya'y sumampa sa mataas na dako.

And he ceased prophesying, and comes to the hill.

14 At sinabi ng amain ni Saul sa kaniya at sa kaniyang bataan, Saan kayo naparoon? At kaniyang sinabi, Upang hanapin ang mga asno, at nang aming makita na hindi mangasumpungan, ay naparoon kami kay Samuel.

And his kinsman said to him and to his servant, Whither went you? and they said, To seek the asses; and we saw that they were lost, and we went in to Samuel.

15 At sinabi ng amain ni Saul, Isinasamo ko sa iyo na saysayin mo sa akin, kung ano ang sinabi ni Samuel sa inyo.

And his kinsman said to Saul, Tell me, I pray you, What did Samuel say to you?

16 At sinabi ni Saul sa kaniyang amain, Sinabi niyang maliwanag sa amin na ang mga asno ay nasumpungan na. Nguni't tungkol sa bagay ng kaharian, na sinalita ni Samuel, ay hindi niya isinaysay sa kaniya.

And Saul said to his kinsman, he verily told me that the asses were found. But the matter of the kingdom he told him not.

17 At tinipon ni Samuel ang bayan sa Panginoon sa Mizpa;

And Samuel summoned all the people before the Lord to Massephath.

18 At sinabi niya sa mga anak ni Israel, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, ng Dios ng Israel, Iniahon ko ang Israel mula sa Egipto, at pinapaging laya ko kayo sa kamay ng mga taga Egipto, at sa kamay ng lahat ng mga kaharian na pumighati sa inyo:

And he said to the children of Israel, Thus has the Lord God of Israel spoken, saying, I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, and I rescued you out of the hand of Pharao king of Egypt, and out of all the kingdoms that afflicted you.

19 Nguni't itinakuwil ninyo sa araw na ito ang inyong Dios, na siyang nagligtas sa inyo sa lahat ng mga inyong kasakunaan at mga kapighatian; at sinabi ninyo sa kaniya, Hindi, kundi lagyan mo kami ng isang hari. Ngayon nga'y humarap kayo sa Panginoon ayon sa inyoinyong mga lipi, at ayon sa inyong mga libolibo.

And you have this day rejected God, who is himself your Deliverer out of all your evils and afflictions; and you said, Nay, but you shall set a king over us: and now stand before the Lord according to your tribes, and according to your families.

20 Sa gayo'y pinalapit ni Samuel ang lahat ng mga lipi, at ang lipi ni Benjamin ang napili.

And Samuel brought near all the tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Benjamin is taken by lot.

21 At kaniyang inilapit ang lipi ni Benjamin ayon sa kaniyang mga angkan; at ang angkan ni Matri ay siyang napili; at si Saul na anak ni Cis, ay siyang napili: nguni't nang kanilang hanapin siya ay hindi nasumpungan.

And he brings near the tribe of Benjamin by families, and the family of Mattari is taken by lot: and they bring near the family of Mattari, man by man, and Saul the son of Kis is taken; and he sought him, but he was not found.

22 Kaya't kanilang itinanong uli sa Panginoon, May lalake pa bang paririto? At ang Panginoon ay sumagot, Narito siya'y nagtago sa mga kasangkapan.

And Samuel asked yet again of the Lord, Will the man come here? and the Lord said, Behold, he is hid amongst the stuff.

23 At sila'y tumakbo at kinuha nila siya roon; at nang siya'y tumayo sa gitna ng bayan, ay mataas siya kay sa sinoman sa bayan, mula sa kaniyang mga balikat at paitaas.

And he ran and took him thence, and he set him in the midst of the people; and he was higher than all the people by his shoulders and upwards.

24 At sinabi ni Samuel sa buong bayan, Nakikita ba ninyo siya na pinili ng Panginoon, na walang gaya niya sa buong bayan? At ang buong bayan ay sumigaw, at nagsabi, Mabuhay ang hari.

And Samuel said to all the people, Have you seen whom the Lord has chosen to himself, that there is none like to him amongst you all? And all the people took notice, and said, Let the king live!

25 Nang magkagayo'y sinaysay ni Samuel sa bayan ang paraan ng kaharian, at isinulat sa isang aklat, at inilagay sa harap ng Panginoon. At pinayaon ni Samuel ang buong bayan, na pinauwi bawa't tao sa kaniyang bahay.

And Samuel told the people the manner of the king, and wrote it in a book, and set it before the Lord: and Samuel sent away all the people, and each went to his place.

26 At si Saul man ay umuwi sa kaniyang bahay sa Gabaa; at yumaong kasama niya ang hukbo, na ang kanilang mga kalooban ay kinilos ng Dios.

And Saul departed to his house to Gabaa; and there went with Saul mighty men whose hearts God had touched.

27 Nguni't sinabi ng ilang hamak na tao, Paanong ililigtas tayo ng taong ito? At kanilang niwalang kabuluhan at hindi nila dinalhan ng kaloob. Nguni't siya'y hindi umimik.

But evil men said, Who [is] this man [that] shall save us? and they despised him, and brought him no gifts.
