Mukomana uyu Samueri aishumira pamberi paJehovha ari pasi paEri. Mumazuva iwayo shoko raJehovha rakanga risinganzwiki zvakanyanya, kwakanga kusina zviratidzo zvizhinji.
2 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, naʻe tokoto ʻa Ilai ʻi hono potu, pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ke poʻuli hono mata, ʻo ʻikai kei mamata:
Rimwe zuva usiku, Eri akanga akavata panzvimbo yake yamazuva ose, uye meso ake akanga oonera madzerere, asisagoni kuona zvakanaka.
3 Pea ʻi he teʻeki ai mate ʻae maama ʻi he faletapu ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, pea kuo tokoto ʻa Samuela ke mohe:
Mwenje waMwari wakanga usati wadzimwa, uye Samueri akanga akarara pasi mutemberi yaJehovha, maiva neareka yaMwari.
4 Naʻe ui ʻe Sihova kia Samuela; pea tali ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
Ipapo Jehovha akadana Samueri. Samueri akadavira achiti, “Ndiri pano.”
5 Pea naʻe lele ia kia Ilai, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko au eni; he naʻa ke ui au.” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻe ʻikai te u ui; ke ke toe tokoto.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ʻo tokoto.
Akamhanya kuna Eri akasvikoti, “Ndiri pano, nokuti mandidana.” Eri akati, “Handina kukudana; dzokera unorara.” Saka akaenda akanorara.
6 Pea naʻe toe ui ʻe Sihova, “Samuela.” Pea tuʻu ʻa Samuela ʻo ʻalu kia Ilai, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko au eni; he naʻa ke ui au.” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku foha naʻe ʻikai te u ui; ke ke toe tokoto.”
Jehovha akadana zvakare achiti, “Samueri!” Uye Samueri akasimuka akaenda kuna Eri akati, “Ndiri pano, nokuti mandidana.” Eri akati, “Mwanakomana wangu, handina kukudana; dzokera unorara.”
7 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe Samuela ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe teʻeki ai fakahā ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate ia.
Zvino Samueri akanga asati aziva Jehovha. Shoko raJehovha rakanga risati razarurirwa kwaari.
8 Pea naʻe toe ui ʻe Sihova ʻa Samuela ko hono liunga tolu. Pea tuʻu ia ʻo ʻalu kia Ilai, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko au eni he naʻa ke ui au.” Pea naʻe toki ʻilo ʻe Ilai kuo ui ʻa Sihova ki he tamasiʻi.
Jehovha akadana Samueri kechitatu, Samueri akasimuka akaenda kuna Eri akati, “Ndiri pano, nokuti mandidana.” Ipapo Eri akaona kuti Jehovha akanga achidana mukomana uyu.
9 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Ilai kia Samuela, “ʻAlu ʻo tokoto hifo: pea ʻe pehē, kapau te ne ui koe, te ke pehē,’ʻE Sihova ke ke folofola mai; he ʻoku ongoʻi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.’” Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻa Samuela ʻo tokoto ʻi hono potu.
Saka Eri akaudza Samueri kuti, “Enda unorara pasi, kana akakudana, uti, ‘Taurai Jehovha, nokuti muranda wenyu akateerera.’” Saka Samueri akaenda akandorara pasi, panzvimbo yake.
10 Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Sihova, ʻo tuʻu, ʻo ui ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai, “Samuela, Samuela.” Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Samuela, ʻo pehē, “Ke ke folofola mai; he ʻoku ongoʻi ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”
Jehovha akauya akamirapo, akadana sapanguva dzimwe dzose achiti, “Samueri! Samueri!” Ipapo Samueri akati, “Taurai, nokuti muranda wenyu akateerera.”
11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “Vakai, te u fai ha meʻa ʻi ʻIsileli, ʻe vavana ai ʻae telinga, ʻokinautolu kotoa pē ʻe fanongo ki ai.
Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Samueri, “Tarira, ndava kuda kuita chimwe chinhu muIsraeri chichaita kuti nzeve dzavose vanochinzwa dziunge.
12 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia te u fai kia Ilai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia kuo ʻosi ʻeku lea ai ki hono fale: ʻo kau ka kamata, te u fai ke ʻosi foki.
Panguva iyoyo ndichaitira Eri zvose zvandakataura pamusoro peimba yake kubva kumavambo kusvika kumagumo.
13 He kuo u tala kiate ia te u fakamaauʻi hono fale ke taʻengata koeʻuhi ko e hia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi; ko e meʻa ʻi he fai angahala lahi hono ongo foha, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne taʻofi ʻakinaua.
Nokuti ndakamuudza kuti ndichatonga mhuri yake nokusingaperi nokuda kwechivi chaaiziva pamusoro pacho, vanakomana vake vakazvigadzirira kutukwa asi iye haana kuvadzora.
14 Pea ko ia kuo u fuakava ai ki he fale ʻo Ilai, ʻe ʻikai fakamaʻa ʻae hia ʻae fale ʻo Ilai ʻaki ʻae feilaulau pe ko e meʻa ʻatu ʻo taʻengata.”
Naizvozvo ndakatsidza kuimba yaEri ndichiti, ‘Mhosva yeimba yaEri haingayananisirwi nechibayiro kana nechipo.’”
15 Pea naʻe tokoto ʻa Samuela ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi, pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe manavahē ʻa Samuela ke fakahā ʻaia kuo hā mai kia Ilai.
Samueri akarara kusvika mangwanani uye akazozarura misuo yeimba yaJehovha. Akatya kuudza Eri chiratidzo chake,
16 Pea naʻe ui ʻe Ilai kia Samuela, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Samuela ko hoku foha.” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
asi Eri akamudana akati, “Samueri, mwanakomana wangu.” Samueri akapindura akati, “Ndiri pano.”
17 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate koe? ʻOku ou kole kiate koe ʻoua naʻa ke fakafufū ia ʻiate au: Ke fai pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe, mo lahi hake foki, ʻo kapau te ke ʻufiʻufi ʻiate au ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kuo ne folofola kiate koe.”
Eri akabvunza akati, “Wakaudzweiko naJehovha? Usandivanzira hako. Mwari ngaakurange zvakanyanya kana ukandivanzira kana chinhu chimwe zvacho chaakakuudza.”
18 Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Samuela ʻae meʻa kotoa pē kiate ia ʻo ʻikai fufū ha taha. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko Sihova ia: tuku ke fai ʻe ia ʻaia ʻoku lelei ki hono finangalo.”
Saka Samueri akamuudza zvose, akasamuvanzira chinhu. Ipapo Eri akati, “NdiJehovha, regai aite zvaanoona zvakanaka.”
19 Pea naʻe tupu pe ʻa Samuela, pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ke tō kelekele haʻane lea ʻe taha.
Samueri akakura uye Jehovha aiva naye; uye Jehovha haana kurega kunyange shoko rake rimwe chete richiwira pasi.
20 Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē mei Tani ʻo aʻu atu ki Peasipa, kuo hoko ʻa Samuela ko e palōfita ʻa Sihova.
Uye Israeri yose kubva kuDhani kusvika kuBheerishebha vakaziva kuti Samueri akanga asimbiswa somuprofita waJehovha.
21 Pea naʻe toe fakahāhā ʻa Sihova ʻi Sailo: he naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene ʻafio kia Samuela ʻi Sailo ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova.
Jehovha akaramba achionekwa paShiro, uye ipapo akazviratidza kuna Samueri kubudikidza neshoko rake.
