1 Pea naʻe tauhi kia Sihova ʻe he tamasiʻi ko Samuela ʻi he ʻao ʻo Ilai. Pea naʻe maʻungataʻa ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia; naʻe ʻikai fakahā ha meʻa hā mai.
Abarimaa Samuel dii Eli nan ase, som Awurade. Saa bere no na asɛm a wɔte fi Awurade nkyɛn ne anisoadehu yɛ ade a ɛho yɛ na.
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:
Anadwo bi, na Eli a nʼani reyɛ afura koraa no kɔdae nkyɛe koraa.
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:
Na Onyankopɔn kanea no nnya nnumii. Saa bere no na Samuel da Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu baabi a ɛbɛn Onyankopɔn adaka no.
4 Naʻe ui ʻe Sihova kia Samuela; pea tali ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
Prɛko pɛ, Awurade frɛe se, “Samuel! Samuel!” Samuel buae se, “Mini.”
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.
Na ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me.” Eli nso buaa no se, “Memfrɛɛ wo ɛ; san kɔda.” Enti ɔsan kɔdae.
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.”
Awurade san frɛɛ bio se, “Samuel!” Bio, Samuel san yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me?” Eli buaa no se, “Me ba, memfrɛɛ wo ɛ; san kɔda.”
7 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe Samuela ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe teʻeki ai fakahā ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate ia.
Na Samuel nnya nhuu Awurade, efisɛ na Awurade asɛm mmaa ne nkyɛn da.
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.
Awurade frɛɛ Samuel ne mprɛnsa so. Na Samuel yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Eli nkyɛn kɔkae se, “Mini; wofrɛɛ me.” Ɛhɔ na Eli huu sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔrefrɛ abarimaa no.
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.
Enti ɔka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Kɔ na kɔda bio, na sɛ wote sɛ obi refrɛ wo a, gye so se, ‘Awurade kasa na wʼakoa retie.’” Enti Samuel kɔdaa bio.
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.”
Na Awurade ba bɛfrɛɛ bio se, “Samuel! Samuel!” Na Samuel buae se, “Awurade kasa na wʼakoa retie.”
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.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Merebɛyɛ akomatu ade bi wɔ Israel.
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.
Merebɛyɛ nea maka atia Eli ne nʼabusuafo no nyinaa.
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.
Mabɔ no kɔkɔ mpɛn bebree sɛ, atemmu reba ɔne nʼabusuafo so, efisɛ ne mmabarima abɔ mmusu atia Onyankopɔn, nanso wankasa ankyerɛ wɔn.
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.”
Na maka ntam se, Eli ne ne mmabarima bɔne no, sɛ wɔbɔ okum afɔre anaa aduan afɔre koraa a, wɔremfa nkyɛ wɔn da.”
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.
Samuel daa hɔ ara kosii sɛ ade kyee. Obuebuee ntamadan hɔ mfɛnsere sɛnea ɔtaa yɛ no. Na osuro sɛ ɔbɛka asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no akyerɛ Eli.
16 Pea naʻe ui ʻe Ilai kia Samuela, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻE Samuela ko hoku foha.” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
Nanso Eli frɛɛ no se, “Samuel, me ba.” Samuel buae se, “Mini!”
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.”
Eli bisaa no se, “Asɛm bɛn na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wo? Ka biribiara kyerɛ me. Sɛ wode biribiara sie me a, Onyankopɔn ntwe wʼaso.”
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.”
Enti Samuel kaa biribiara kyerɛɛ Eli a wamfa hwee anhintaw no. Eli ka sɔw so se, “Ɔne Awurade; ma ɔnyɛ nea eye wɔ nʼani so.”
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.
Awurade kaa Samuel ho wɔ ne nyin mu, na biribiara a Samuel kae no, na ɛyɛ nyansasɛm a ɛboa.
20 Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē mei Tani ʻo aʻu atu ki Peasipa, kuo hoko ʻa Samuela ko e palōfita ʻa Sihova.
Nnipa a wɔwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa, efi Dan asase wɔ atifi kosi anafo no, na wonim sɛ wɔahyɛ Samuel Awurade diyifo.
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.
Awurade kɔɔ so daa ne ho adi wɔ Silo, na ɔnam nʼasɛm so daa ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Samuel wɔ ntamadan mu hɔ. Na Samuel asɛm baa Israelman mu nyinaa
