1 Samuela 8
1 Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko ʻo motuʻa ʻa Samuela naʻa ne fakanofo hono ongo foha ke fakamaau ki ʻIsileli.
Kwasekusithi uSamuweli esemdala wabeka amadodana akhe ukuze abe ngabahluleli koIsrayeli.
2 Pea ko hono hingoa ʻoe ʻuluaki foha ko Sioeli pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono tokoua, ko ʻApia pea ko e ongo fakamaau ʻakinaua ʻi Peasipa.
Lebizo lendodana yakhe elizibulo lalinguJoweli, lebizo leyesibili yakhe linguAbhiya; ayengabahluleli eBherishebha.
3 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻalu ʻa hono ongo foha ʻi hono ngaahi hala ʻoʻona, ka naʻa na tafoki ʻo kumi koloa, ʻo na maʻu koloa totongi, pea fakahalaʻi ʻae fakamaau.
Kodwa amadodana akhe ayengahambi ngendlela zakhe, kodwa aphambukela enzuzweni embi, emukela isivalamlomo, aphambula isahlulelo.
4 Pea naʻe toki fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo haʻu kia Samuela ki Lama,
Kwasekubuthana abadala bonke bakoIsrayeli, beza kuSamuweli eRama,
5 ʻO nau pehē kiate ia, “Vakai kuo ke motuʻa, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻalu ʻa ho ongo foha ʻi ho ngaahi hala: pea ko eni fakanofo ha tuʻi moʻomautolu ke ne fakamaauʻi ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.”
bathi kuye: Khangela, wena usumdala, lamadodana akho kawahambi ngendlela zakho; ngakho sibekele inkosi ukuze isahlulele njengazo zonke izizwe.
6 Ka naʻe kovi lahi kia Samuela ʻa ʻenau pehē, “Tuku kiate kimautolu ha tuʻi ke ne fakamaauʻi ʻakimautolu.” Pea naʻe lotu ʻe Samuela kia Sihova.
Kodwa leyonto yayimbi emehlweni kaSamuweli lapho besithi: Sinike inkosi ukusahlulela. USamuweli wasekhuleka eNkosini.
7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “Tokanga ki he leʻo ʻoe kakai ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku nau tala kiate koe: he ʻoku teʻeki ai tenau siʻaki koe, ka kuo nau siʻaki au, ke ʻoua naʻaku pule kiate kinautolu.
INkosi yasisithi kuSamuweli: Lalela ilizwi labantu kukho konke abakutshoyo kuwe, ngoba kakusuwe abakwalayo, kodwa bala mina ukuze ngingabusi phezu kwabo.
8 Hangē ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻaia kuo nau fai talu ʻae ʻaho ʻaia ne u ʻomi ai kinautolu mei ʻIsipite, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia kuo nau liʻaki au, pea tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe; ʻoku pehē ʻenau fai kiate koe.
Ngokwezenzo zonke abazenzileyo kusukela ngosuku engabenyusa ngalo eGibhithe kuze kube lamuhla, bangitshiyile bakhonza abanye onkulunkulu; benza njalo lakuwe.
9 Pea ko eni, tokanga ki honau leʻo; ka ke valoki mamafa kiate kinautolu, pea fakahā kiate kinautolu hono anga ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia ʻe pule kiate kinautolu.”
Ngakho khathesi, lalela ilizwi labo; kodwa nxa ubafakazele kakhulu, ubazise indlela yenkosi ezabusa phezu kwabo.
10 Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Samuela ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ki he kakai naʻe tala tuʻi kiate ia.
USamuweli wasetshela abantu abacela kuye inkosi wonke amazwi eNkosi.
11 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hono anga eni ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia ʻe pule kiate kimoutolu: Te ne toʻo homou ngaahi foha pea vaheʻi ʻakinautolu moʻona, ki heʻene ngaahi saliote, pea ke hoko ko ʻene kau heka hoosi; pea ke lele muʻomuʻa ʻi hono ngaahi saliote.
Wasesithi: Le izakuba yindlela yenkosi ezabusa phezu kwenu; izathatha amadodana enu izibekele wona enqoleni zayo lakubagadi bamabhiza ayo, agijime phambi kwezinqola zayo.
12 Pea ʻe fakanofo ʻe ia moʻona ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, mo e ʻeiki pule ki he ngaahi toko nimangofulu; pea te ne fakafatongia kinautolu ke keli ʻene ngoue, pea ke tuʻusi ʻene taʻu, pea kenau ngaohi ʻene mahafutau, mo e ngaahi meʻa ki hono ngaahi saliote.
Izazibekela wona abe yizinduna zezinkulungwane lezinduna zamatshumi amahlanu, lokulima amasimu ayo, lokuvuna isivuno sayo, lokwenza izikhali zayo zempi, lezikhali zezinqola zayo.
13 Pea te ne pule ke hoko ʻa homou ngaahi ʻofefine, ko e kau ngaohi mā melie, ko e kau teu kai, mo e kau taʻo mā.
Izathatha amadodakazi enu iwenze abe ngabenzi bamakha, labapheki, labaphekizinkwa.
14 Pea ʻe maʻu ʻe ia hoʻomou ngaahi ngoue, mo hoʻomou ngoue vaine, mo e ngoue ʻolive, ʻio, ʻaia ʻoku lelei lahi, pea ʻe foaki ia ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
Izathatha amasimu enu, lezivini zenu lezivande zenu zemihlwathi, ezinhle, ikunike inceku zayo.
15 Pea te ne toʻo hono hongofulu ʻo hono vahe ʻi hoʻomou tengaʻi ʻakau, pea mo hoʻomou ngoue vaine, pea foaki ki heʻene kau matāpule mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
Izathatha okwetshumi yenhlanyelo yenu leyezivini zenu, iyinike induna zayo lenceku zayo.
16 Pea te ne toʻo hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki, mo hoʻomou kau kaunanga, mo hoʻomou kau tangata toulekeleka, mo hoʻomou fanga ʻasi, ʻo tuku ʻakinautolu ki heʻene ngāue.
Izathatha inceku zenu lencekukazi zenu lamajaha enu angcono labobabhemi benu, ikusebenzise emsebenzini wayo.
17 ʻE toʻo ʻe ia ʻo ʻave hono hongofulu ʻoe vahe ʻo hoʻomou fanga sipi: pea te mou hoko ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
Izathatha okwetshumi kwemihlambi yenu; lina-ke libe yizinceku zayo.
18 Pea te mou tangi kalanga ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ko e meʻa ʻi he tuʻi ʻaia kuo mou fili moʻomoutolu; pea ʻe ʻikai ongoʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ko ia.”
Njalo lizakhala ngalolosuku ngenxa yenkosi yenu elizikhethele yona; kodwa iNkosi kayiyikuliphendula mhlalokho.
19 Ka naʻe ʻikai tui ʻae kakai ki he leʻo ʻo Samuela, pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai, ka te mau maʻu ha tuʻi, ke pule kiate kimautolu;
Kodwa abantu bala ukulilalela ilizwi likaSamuweli, bathi: Hatshi, kodwa kuzakuba lenkosi phezu kwethu,
20 koeʻuhi ke mau tatau foki mo e ngaahi puleʻanga; pea ke fakamaaua kimautolu ʻe homau tuʻi, pea ke ʻalu muʻomuʻa ia ʻiate kimautolu, ke fai ʻemau ngaahi tau.”
ukuze lathi sibe njengezizwe zonke, lenkosi yethu isahlulele, iphume phambi kwethu, ilwe izimpi zethu.
21 Pea naʻe fanongo ʻe Samuela ki he ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻae kakai, pea ne lea ʻaki ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
USamuweli esewazwile wonke amazwi abantu, wawalandisa endlebeni zeNkosi.
22 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Samuela, “Tokanga ki honau leʻo, pea fakanofo ha tuʻi moʻonautolu.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, “Mou ʻalu, ko e tangata taki taha ki hono kolo.”
INkosi yasisithi kuSamuweli: Lalela ilizwi labo, ubabekele inkosi. USamuweli wasesithi emadodeni akoIsrayeli: Hambani liye ngulowo lalowo emzini wakhe.
