< 1 Samuel 10 >
1 Afei, Samuel faa ngotoa a ngo wɔ mu hwie guu Saulo tirim, few nʼafono ho, kae se, “Mereyɛ eyi de akyerɛ sɛ Awurade apaw wo sɛ ɔkannifo ama ne man Israel.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Samuela ʻae hina lolo, ʻo lingi ia ki hono fofonga, pea ʻuma kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻIkai ko e meʻa ʻi he fakatapui koe ʻe Sihova ke ke ʻeiki koe ki hono tofiʻa?
2 Sɛ wugyaw me ha nnɛ na worekɔ a, wubehyia mmarima baanu wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn Rahel da a ɛwɔ Selsa a ɛbɛn Benyamin hye no. Wɔbɛka akyerɛ wo se, ‘Mfurum a mutuu ho anammɔn kɔhwehwɛɛ wɔn no, wɔahu wɔn. Enti mprempren, wʼagya agyae wɔn ho dwene, na mmom, mo ho na ɔredwen. Ɔtaa bisa se, “Obi ahu me babarima no ana?”’
ʻI hoʻo ʻalu ʻiate au he ʻaho ni, te ke toki ʻilo ʻae ongo tangata ofi ki he tanuʻanga ʻo Lesieli ʻi he potu ʻo Penisimani ʻi Selisa; pea te na pehē kiate koe, Ko e fanga ʻasi ne ke ʻalu ko hono kumi kuo ʻilo: pea ko eni kuo tuku ʻe hoʻo tamai ʻene tokanga ki he fanga ʻasi, ka ʻoku mamahi kiate koe, ʻo pehē, Ko e hā te u fai koeʻuhi ko hoku foha?
3 “Mudu dua kɛse bi a esi Tabor ho a, mubehyia mmarima baasa bi a wofi Bet-El rekɔ akɔsom Onyankopɔn. Ɔbaako so mmirekyi mma abiɛsa, ɔbaako nso so brodo mua abiɛsa, na nea ɔka ho no nso so nsa aboa nhoma kotoku baako.
Pea ke ʻalu ai pe mei ai, pea ke hoko ki he tafangafanga ʻo Tepoa, pea ʻe fakafetaulaki kiate koe ʻi ai ʻae tangata ʻe toko tolu ko ʻenau ʻalu ki he ʻOtua ʻi Peteli, ʻoku fua ʻe he tokotaha ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi ʻe tolu, pea fua ʻe he tokotaha ʻae foʻi mā ʻe tolu, pea toʻo ʻe he tokotaha ʻae hina uaine:
4 Wobekyia mo, na wɔama mo brodo mua abien, na ɛsɛ sɛ mugye fi wɔn nkyɛn.
Pea tenau fetapa kiate koe, ʻo tuku kiate koe ʻae foʻi mā ʻe ua; ʻaia te ke maʻu mei honau nima.
5 “Na sɛ mudu Onyankopɔn koko a ɛwɔ Gibea a Filistifo nsraadɔm abɔ pem wɔ hɔ no a, mubehu adiyifo asafodɔm sɛ wofi afɔremuka a ɛwɔ bepɔw no so hɔ resian ba. Ɛhɔ na mubehyia adiyifo asafo a wɔresian afi bepɔw no so hɔ reba na bɛnta ne mpintin ne mmɛn ne asanku di wɔn anim a wɔrehyɛ nkɔm.
Hili ia, te ke hoko atu ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu ʻi ai ʻae kolo tau ʻae kau Filisitia: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi hoʻo hoko atu ki he kolo, te mo fetaulaki mo e kau kikite ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he potu māʻolunga mo e meʻa faiva tatangi, mo e fangufangu, mo e haʻape, ʻi honau ʻao pea tenau kikite.
6 Saa bere no, Onyankopɔn Honhom bɛba wo so wɔ tumi mu, na wo ne wɔn bɛhyɛ nkɔm. Wobɛsakra ayɛ onipa foforo.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova kiate koe, pea te ke kikite koe mo kinautolu, pea ke liliu koe ko e tangata foʻou.
7 Saa nsɛnkyerɛnne yi akyi no, yɛ nea wugye di sɛ eye biara, na Onyankopɔn bɛka wo ho.
Pea tuku ke pehē, ʻoka hoko ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ni kiate koe, te ke fai ʻe koe ʻaia ʻe matamatalelei ʻi ho ʻao; he ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae ʻOtua.
8 Afei, sian di mʼanim kɔ Gilgal na kɔtwɛn me wɔ hɔ nnanson. Mɛba abɛka wo ho wɔ hɔ, na yɛabɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne asomdwoe afɔre. Na sɛ midu hɔ a, mɛkyerɛ wo nea ɛsɛ sɛ woyɛ bio.”
Pea te ke ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻiate au ki Kilikali; pea vakai, te u ʻalu hifo kiate koe ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, pea ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei: te ke tatali kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ke ʻoua ke u hoko atu kiate koe, pea fakahā kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai.”
9 Saulo dan ne ho pɛɛ sɛ ɔkɔ ara pɛ, Onyankopɔn sesaa ne koma, na Samuel nsɛnkyerɛnne nyinaa baa mu da no.
Pea naʻe pehē, hili ʻene tafoki hono tuʻa ke ʻalu ʻia Samuela, naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia ʻae loto foʻou: pea naʻe hoko ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga ni kotoa pē ʻi he ʻaho ko ia.
10 Bere a Saulo ne ne somfo no duu Gibea no, wohuu sɛ adiyifo no reba. Afei Onyankopɔn honhom baa Saulo so, na ɔno nso fii ase hyɛɛ nkɔm.
Pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ki ai ki he moʻunga, vakai, ʻoku fakafetaulaki kiate ia ʻae kau kikite; pea naʻe hoko kiate ia ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, pea kikite ia mo kinautolu.
11 Bere a ne nnamfonom tee saa asɛm yi no, wɔteɛɛ mu se, “Asɛm bɛn na moreka yi? Saulo nso abɛyɛ odiyifo? Ɛyɛɛ dɛn na Kis babarima tumi bɛyɛɛ odiyifo?”
Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he mamata ʻekinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ia ʻi muʻa, pea vakai, ʻoku kikite ia mo e kau kikite, naʻe fepehēʻaki ʻe he kakai, “Ko e hā eni kuo hoko ki he foha ʻo Kisi? ʻOku kau ʻa Saula foki ki he kau palōfita?”
12 Nanso ɛhɔni bi kae se, “Sɛnea nʼagya te de, ɛmfa ho; obiara tumi bɛyɛ odiyifo.” Enti ɛbɛyɛɛ sɛnnahɔ se, “Enti Saulo nso abɛyɛ odiyifo?”
Pea naʻe tali leva ʻe he tokotaha ʻoe potu ko ia, ʻo pehē, “Ka ko hai ʻenau tamai? Ko ia naʻe hoko ia ko e lea fakaefonua, ʻOku ʻi he kau palōfita ʻa Saula foki?
13 Saulo gyaee adiyi no, ɔforoo bepɔw no kɔɔ afɔremuka no so.
Pea ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻene kikite, naʻe haʻu ia ki he potu māʻolunga.
14 Oduu hɔ no, Saulo wɔfa bisaa no se, “Ɛhefa na wokɔe a dedaada yenhuu wo yi?” Saulo buae se, “Yɛkɔhwehwɛɛ mfurum a wɔayera no, nanso yɛanhu wɔn. Ɛno nti, yɛkɔɔ odiyifo Samuel nkyɛn kobisaa no faako a wɔwɔ.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻasina ʻo Saula kiate ia mo ʻene tamaioʻeiki, “Ne mo ō ki fē?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ke kumi ʻae fanga ʻasi: pea ʻi heʻema vakai ʻoku ʻikai ia, ne ma hoko atu kia Samuela.”
15 Ne wɔfa no bisae se, “Saa? Na asɛm bɛn na ɔkae?”
Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻasina ʻo Saula, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tala mai ʻaia naʻe tala ʻe Samuela kiate kimoua.”
16 Saulo buae se, “Ɔkae se, wɔahu mfurum no.” Nanso Saulo anka ankyerɛ ne wɔfa no sɛ Samuel asra no ngo sɛ wobesi no ɔhene.
Pea pehē ʻe Saula ki hono tuʻasina, naʻa ne tala totonu kiate kimaua kuo ʻiloa ʻae fanga ʻasi. Ka ko e meʻa ʻi he puleʻanga ʻaia naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Samuela, naʻe ʻikai te ne tala ia.
17 Samuel frɛɛ Israelfo nyinaa baa Awurade anim wɔ Mispa,
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Samuela ke kātoa fakataha ʻae kakai kia Sihova ki Misipa;
18 na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Sɛnea Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni, ‘Mede Israelfo fii Misraim bae, na migyee mo fii Misraim tumi ne wɔn a wodi mo nya no nyinaa ase.’
ʻO ne pehē ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Ne u ʻomi ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite, pea fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he nima ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he nima ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, mo kinautolu naʻe fakamoʻulaloaʻi ʻakimoutolu:
19 Nanso ɛwɔ mu sɛ mayɛ bebree ama mo de, nso moapo me aka se, ‘Yɛpɛ ɔhene.’ Enti afei, momfa mo mmusuakuw ne mo mmusua mmra Awurade anim.”
Pea kuo mou liʻaki he ʻaho ni ʻa homou ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne fakamoʻui tonu ʻakimoutolu mei hoʻomou ngaahi kovi kotoa pē, mo hoʻomou ngaahi meʻa fakamamahi kotoa pē; pea kuo mou tala kiate ia, ʻIkai, ka ke fakanofo ha tuʻi kiate kimautolu. Pea ko eni fakakātoa ʻo fakahā ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻi homou ngaahi faʻahinga, pea ʻi homou ngaahi toko afe.’”
20 Samuel maa Israel mmusuakuw nyinaa bae no, Benyamin abusuakuw na woyii wɔn.
Pea ʻi he fakakātoa fakataha ʻe Samuela ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli kenau haʻu ʻo ofi, pea naʻe fili ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Penisimani.
21 Afei ɔmaa Benyamin abusuakuw no mu afi nyinaa baa Awurade anim na woyii Matri abusua, na awiei no woyii Kis babarima Saulo. Na wɔhwehwɛɛ no no, na wonhu baabi a wafa.
Pea ʻi heʻene fekau ke haʻu ʻo ofi ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Penisimani ʻi honau ngaahi fale, naʻe fili ʻae fale ʻo Matili, pea fili ʻa Saula ko e foha ʻo Kisi: pea ʻi heʻenau kumi ia, naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa ia.
22 Enti wobisaa Awurade se, “Na ɔwɔ he?” Na Awurade buae se, “Yiw, ɔde ne ho ahintaw nneɛma mu.”
Ko ia naʻa nau toe fehuʻi ai kia Sihova, pe haʻu ki ai ʻae tangata pe ʻikai. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, kuo fakafufū ʻe ia ia ʻi he tuʻunga ngaʻotoʻota.”
23 Enti wotuu mmirika kɔfaa no bae. Na obegyinaa nnipa no mu no na ne tenten bunkam fa obiara so.
Pea naʻa nau lele ʻo ʻomi ia mei ai: pea ʻi heʻene tuʻu mo e kakai, naʻe māʻolunga ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē mei hono uma ʻo fai ki ʻolunga.
24 Samuel ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no nyinaa se, “Ɔbarima a Awurade apaw no sɛ mo hene ni. Obiara nni Israel ha a ɔne no sɛ.” Afei, nnipa no nyinaa bɔ gyee so se, “Ɔhene nkwa so!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Samuela ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Mou vakai kiate ia ʻaia kuo fili ʻe Sihova, ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku hangē ko ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē!” Pea naʻe kalanga ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Ke fakamoʻui ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae tuʻi.”
25 Samuel kyerɛkyerɛɛ mmara a ɛbata saa ahenni no ho kyerɛɛ nnipa no. Ɔkyerɛw guu nhoma mmobɔwee so, de kɔtoo Awurade anim. Afei, Samuel gyaa ɔmanfo no kwan ma wɔkɔɔ wɔn afi mu.
Pea naʻe toki tala ʻe Samuela ki he kakai hono anga ʻoe puleʻanga, ʻo ne tohi ia ʻi he tohi, ʻo tuku ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Samuela ki he kakai kotoa pē kenau ʻalu taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono fale.
26 Saulo nso kɔɔ ne fi wɔ Gibea na nnipakuw bi a Onyankopɔn aka wɔn koma de wɔn ho bɛbɔɔ no.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Saula ki hono ʻapi ʻi Kipea; pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau tangata, naʻe laveʻi honau loto ʻe he ʻOtua.
27 Nanso amumɔyɛfo bi kae se, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na saa onipa yi atumi agye yɛn?” Wobuu no animtiaa a wɔammrɛ no akyɛde biara. Nanso Saulo ammua wɔn.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻae angakovi, “ʻE fakamoʻui fēfē ʻe he tangata ni ʻakitautolu?” Pea naʻa nau manukiʻi ia, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻomi ha meʻaʻofa kiate ia. Ka naʻe longo pe ia.
