1 Samuel 12
1 Afei, Samuel kasa kyerɛɛ ɔman no bio se, “Nea mopɛɛ sɛ meyɛ no mayɛ, mama mo ɔhene.
Samuel nowachone jo-Israel duto niya, “Asewinjo gik moko duto ma usewachona kendo koro asemiyou ruoth.
2 Matwa me mmabarima ho ayi no, na migyina ha sɛ akwakoraa tidwen. Masom sɛ mo kannifo fi me mmofraase.
Koro un kod ruoth kaka jatendu. Anto aseti ma wiya oti lwar, kendo yawuota un-go ka. Asebedo jatendu chakre tin-na nyaka sani.
3 Afei, monka nkyerɛ me, bere a migyina Awurade ne nea wɔasra no wɔ ne din mu anim yi, hena nantwi anaa nʼafurum na mawia? Masisi mo mu bi pɛn ana? Madi mo nya pɛn ana? Magye adanmude bi pɛn ana? Sɛ mayɛ bɔne bi a, monka nkyerɛ me, na mesiesie nea manyɛ no.”
Eri achungʼ ka. Hulieuru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod ngʼate mowir ketho ma asetimo. Rwadh ngʼa masekawo? Punda ngʼa masekawo? Ngʼatno ma asethiro? Asekawo asoya koa kuom ngʼa mondo odin wangʼa? Ka dipo ni asetimo achiel kuom gigi, to aikora mar loso.”
4 Wobuaa se, “Dabi, wunsisii yɛn, na wunnii yɛn nya ɔkwan biara so, na wunnyee adanmude fua pɛ mpo.”
Negidwoko niya, “Pok iwuondowa kata thirowa. Bende pok ikawo gimoro amora moa e lwet ngʼato.”
5 Samuel kae se, “Awurade ne ne onipa a wasra no no yɛ me nnansefo sɛ morentumi nka sɛ mabɔ mo korɔn.” Wɔn nyinaa kae se, “Ampa ara, ɛyɛ nokware!”
Samuel nowachonegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye en janeno kuomu, kendo ngʼate mowir bende obedo janeno kawuononi, ni ok useyudo gimoro e lweta.” Negiwacho niya, “Adier, en janeno.”
6 Samuel toaa so se, “Ɛyɛ Awurade na oyii Mose ne Aaron. Ɔno na oyii mo agyanom fii Misraim asase so.
Eka Samuel nowachone ji niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ema ne oyiero Musa gi Harun kendo nogolo kwereu koa e piny Misri.
7 Mprempren, munnyina ha dinn wɔ Awurade anim bere a migu so rekaakae mo nneɛma akɛse a Awurade ayɛ ama mo ne mo agyanom no.
Koro sani, chungʼuru ka, mondo anyisu ratiro kendo aparnu e nyim Jehova Nyasaye timbe duto makare mane otimonu kaachiel gi wuoneu.
8 “Bere a na Israelfo wɔ Misraim na wosu frɛɛ Awurade no, ɔsomaa Mose ne Aaron sɛ, wonnyi wɔn mfi Misraim, na wɔmfa wɔn mmra saa asase yi so.
“Kane Jakobo odonjo e piny Misri, ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi, kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Musa gi Harun, mane ogolo kwereu owuok oa Misri mi oketogi kama gidakieni.
9 “Nanso ankyɛ biara na nnipa no werɛ fii Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn, enti ɔmaa Sisera a ɔyɛ Hasor asraafo sahene no ne Filistifo ne Moabhene dii wɔn so.
“To wigi nowil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi; omiyo nojwangʼogi e lwet Sisera, jatend lweny mar Hazor, kendo e lwet jo-Filistia gi ruodh Moab mane okedo kodgi.
10 Afei, wosu frɛɛ Awurade bio, na wɔpaee mu kaa wɔn bɔne se, ‘Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛ yɛatwe yɛn ho afi Awurade ho, na yɛresom ahoni Baalim ne Astoret. Na sɛ wugye yɛn fi yɛn atamfo nsam a, yɛbɛsom wo, na wo nko ara na yɛbɛsom.’
Ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, ‘Wasetimo richo, waseweyo Jehova Nyasaye mi watiyo ne nyiseche mag Baal gi Ashtoreth. To koro sani reswa e lwet wasikwa mi wanatini.’
11 Na Awurade somaa Yerub-Baal, Barak, Yefta ne Samuel, na ogyee mo fii mo atamfo nsam na mobɛtenaa asomdwoe mu.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Jerub-Baal (ma bende iluongo ni Gideon), Barak (ma bende iluongo ni Bedan), Jeftha gi Samuel, kendo ne oresou kuom wasiku mane omonjou koa koni gi koni, momiyo udak gi kwe.
12 “Nanso musuroo Amonfo hene Nahas nti, moka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Dabi, yɛrepɛ ɔhene ama wadi yɛn so’—nanso na Awurade mo Nyankopɔn yɛ mo so hene.
“To kane uneno ka Nahash ruodh jo-Amon dwaro monjou, ne uwachona ni, ‘Nyaka wabed gi ruoth ma ritowa,’ kata obedo ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ne en ruodhu.
13 Afei, mo hene a moayi no ni; nea mobisae no. Hwɛ, Awurade ayɛ mo apɛde ama mo.
Koro neuru ma e ruoth ma useyiero, mane ukwayo; omiyo Jehova Nyasaye oseketo ruoth mondo oritu.
14 Sɛ musuro Awurade, na mosom no, tie nʼasɛm, na sɛ moammu ne mmara so, na mo ne mo hene a odi mo so no nyinaa di Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn akyi a, biribiara bɛyɛ yiye.
Ka umiyo Jehova Nyasaye luor kendo kutiyone, ka uwinjo chikne kendo ok ungʼanyone chikene, un kaachiel gi ruodhu ma ritou mi uluwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, to mano ber.
15 Na sɛ moantie Awurade, na mubu ne mmara so a, ne nsa bɛyɛ duru wɔ mo so sɛnea ɛyɛɛ mo agyanom so no.
To ka utamoru winjo Jehova Nyasaye, mi ungʼanyone chikene, to enokumu kaka ne okumo kwereu.
16 “Enti afei, munnyina hɔ dinn, na monhwɛ ade kɛse a Awurade rebɛyɛ.
“Koro sani chungʼuru kar tiendu mondo une hono maduongʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye timo mana ka uneno!
17 Munim sɛ saa bere yi a ɛyɛ awitwabere yi, osu ntɔ. Mɛma Awurade apae aprannaa na ama osu atɔ. Afei mubehu bɔne a moyɛe sɛ mobisaa ɔhene no.”
Donge sani en ndalo mikayoe ngano? Abiro luongo Jehova Nyasaye mondo okel polo mamor gi koth. Eka ubiro ngʼeyo ni usetimo marach e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kuom kwayou mane upenjogo ruoth.”
18 Ɛhɔ ara Samuel frɛɛ Awurade, na da no ara, Awurade paee aprannaa, tɔɔ osu. Nnipa no nyinaa suroo Awurade ne Samuel.
Eka Samuel noluongo Jehova Nyasaye, kendo mana gi odiechiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nokelo mor polo gi koth. Omiyo ji duto nochungʼ ka luoro omakogi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod Samuel.
19 Nnipa no nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ Samuel se, “Bɔ Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, mpae ma wʼasomfo sɛnea yɛrenwu, na yɛrenyɛ bɔne nka yɛn bɔne ahorow nyinaa ho sɛ yɛabisa ɔhene.”
Eka ji duto nowachone Samuel niya, “Lam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ni jotichni mondo kik watho, nimar wasemedo ewi richowa mamoko tim marach mar kwayo mondo miwa ruoth.”
20 Samuel buae se, “Munnsuro. Moayɛ saa bɔne yi nyinaa bi de, nanso monnnan mo ani mmfi Awurade so, na momfa mo koma nyinaa nsom Awurade.
Samuel nodwokogi niya, “Kik ubed maluor. Kata obedo ni usetimo tim marachni, koro kik ulokru uwe Jehova Nyasaye, to tineuru gi chunyu duto.
21 Monnsan nkodi ahoni huhuw a wɔrenyɛ mo papa biara, na wɔrentumi nnye mo nkwa no akyi, efisɛ wɔn so nni mfaso.
Kik ulokru uluw nyiseche manono. Ok ginyal konyou, bende ok ginyal resou nikech gin gik manono.
22 Esiane ne din kɛse no nti, Awurade rempo ne nkurɔfo. Awurade afa mo sɛ nʼankasa nʼade.
Nikech nyinge maduongʼ, Jehova Nyasaye ok nojwangʼ joge, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne mor mar timou joge owuon.
23 Na me de, merenyɛ bɔne ntia Awurade sɛ meremmɔ mpae mma mo. Na mɛkɔ so akyerɛ mo papa ne bɔne.
Kata kamano, anto ok anyal ketho ni Jehova Nyasaye kuom weyo ma ok alemonu. To abiro puonjou yo maber kendo makare.
24 Nanso monhwɛ sɛ mubesuro Awurade na moasom no nokware mu.
Un to nyaka une ni uluoru Jehova Nyasaye, kendo utine gi adieri gi chunyu duto; parieuru gigo madongo mosetimonu.
25 Na sɛ mokɔ so yɛ bɔne a, wɔbɛsɛe mo ne mo hene nyinaa.”
To ka usiko ka utimo marach, to un kaachiel gi ruodhu ibiro tieku.”
