1 Samuel 19
1 Saulo hyɛɛ nʼasomfo ne ne babarima Yonatan sɛ wonkum Dawid. Nanso esiane sɛ na Yonatan adamfo pa ara ne Dawid nti,
Awo Sawulo n’agamba mutabani we Yonasaani, n’abaweereza be bonna, batte Dawudi. Naye Yonasaani yayagalanga nnyo Dawudi,
2 Yonatan kaa adwene a nʼagya ayɛ afa ne ho no kyerɛɛ no tuu no fo se, “Ɔkyena anɔpa, pɛ wuram baabi kɔbɔ wo ho aguaa, efisɛ mʼagya rehwehwɛ wo akum wo.
bw’atyo n’amulabula ng’agamba nti, “Kitange Sawulo anoonya bw’anaayinza okukutta. Weekuume enkya ku makya, weekweke mu kifo ekikusifu obeere eyo.
3 Mɛka akyerɛ mʼagya, na ɔne me aba hɔ na mɛka wo ho asɛm nyinaa akyerɛ no. Na biribiara a mehu wɔ hɔ no nso, mɛbɔ wo amanneɛ.”
Nnaagenda ne nnyimirira ne kitange mu nnimiro, w’onoobeera, ne njogera naye ku bikukwatako, n’oluvannyuma nzija kujja nkutegeeze bye nnaazuula.”
4 Ade kyee anɔpa no, Yonatan ne nʼagya dii nkɔmmɔ faa Dawid ho. Yonatan kaa ne ho nsɛm pa pii. Yonatan srɛɛ nʼagya se, “Mesrɛ wo, nyɛ bɔne biara ntia Dawid. Ɔnyɛɛ biribiara a ɛbɛhaw wo. Daa, ɔfa ɔkwan biara a obetumi so boa wo.
Awo Yonasaani n’ayogera bulungi ku Dawudi eri Sawulo kitaawe ng’agamba nti, “Kabaka aleme okukola akabi ku muddu we Dawudi, kubanga talina kyakukoze, era akuweereza bulungi nnyo mu mirimu egy’omugaso.
5 Wo werɛ afi bere a ɔde ne nkwa too ne nsam, kokum Filistini no, na ɛnam so maa Awurade de nkonimdi kɛse brɛɛ Israel no? Saa bere no, akyinnye biara nni ho sɛ, wʼani gyei. Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ wukum onipa a ne ho nni asɛm sɛ Dawid? Nkyerɛase pa biara nni mu koraa.”
Yeewaayo n’atta Omufirisuuti; Mukama n’aleetera Isirayiri yenna, obuwanguzi obw’ekitalo, n’okiraba n’osanyuka. Lwaki oyigganya omuntu nga Dawudi ataliiko musango, n’oyagala okumutta awatali nsonga?”
6 Enti Saulo tiee Yonatan, na ɔkaa ho ntam dii nsew se, “Sɛ Awurade te ase yi, wɔrenkum Dawid.”
Sawulo n’awuliriza Yonasaani, era n’amulayirira ng’agamba nti, “Mukama nga bw’ali omulamu, Dawudi tajja kuttibwa.”
7 Akyiri no, Yonatan frɛɛ Dawid kaa asɛm a asi no kyerɛɛ no. Enti ɔfaa Dawid de no kohuu Saulo, na biribiara totɔɔ yiye, sɛnea kan no na ɛte no ara pɛ.
Awo Yonasaani n’ayita Dawudi, n’amutegeeza byonna. N’amuleeta eri Sawulo, Dawudi n’addamu n’aweereza Sawulo ng’olubereberye.
8 Ankyɛ biara na ɔko bi sii, maa Dawid dii nʼakofo anim kɔko tiaa Filistifo. Ɔde anibere toaa wɔn, maa wɔn nyinaa guanee.
Ne wagwawo olutalo nate, Dawudi n’agenda okulwana n’Abafirisuuti, n’abakuba n’atta bangi ku bo, abaasigalawo ne badduka.
9 Nanso da bi, Saulo te fi ara no, honhommɔne a efi Awurade bɛhyɛɛ ne mu prɛko pɛ bio. Bere a Dawid rebɔ ne sanku ama ɔhene no,
Awo omwoyo omubi okuva eri Mukama ne gujja ku Sawulo bwe yali ng’atudde mu nnyumba ye, ng’akutte effumu mu mukono, Dawudi bwe yali ng’akuba entongooli.
10 Saulo tow ne peaw kyerɛɛ Dawid so, pɛɛ sɛ okum no. Nanso Dawid twee ne ho, totɔɔ esum mu guan maa peaw no kaa ɔfasu no mu.
Sawulo n’agezaako okumufumitira ku kisenge n’effumu, naye Dawudi n’alyewoma, ne likwasa ekisenge. Ekiro ekyo Dawudi n’adduka n’awona.
11 Saulo somaa mmarima kɔɔ Dawid fi kɔwɛn hɔ sɛ, opue anɔpa a wonkum no. Nanso Dawid yere Mikal bɔɔ no kɔkɔ se, “Sɛ woanguan ampɛ wo nkwa anadwo yi a, ɔkyena, wobekum wo.”
Sawulo n’atuma ababaka bagende bakuume ennyumba ya Dawudi, bamutte enkeera. Naye Mikali mukyala wa Dawudi n’amulabula n’amugamba nti, “Bw’otodduke kiro kino, bwe bunaakya bajja kukutta.”
12 Enti Mikal de Dawid faa mfɛnsere mu ma oguanee.
Awo Mikali n’assiza Dawudi mu ddirisa, n’adduka n’agenda ne yeekweka.
13 Na Mikal faa ohoni bi de no too mpa so de atade kataa ho, na ne ti hɔ no nso, ɔde abirekyi ho nwi katae.
Mikali n’addira ekifaananyi ekyole n’akiteeka ku kitanda, n’akibikkako olugoye, n’assa n’ebyoya eby’embuzi ku mutwe gwakyo.
14 Bere a Saulo somaa mmarima sɛ wɔnkɔkyere Dawid no, Mikal ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Ɔyare a ontumi nsɔre mfi mpa so.”
Awo Sawulo bwe yatumayo ababaka okuwamba Dawudi, Mikali n’abagamba nti, “Mulwadde.”
15 Saulo san somaa mmarima no bio se, “Monkɔfa no mfi ne mpa so mmra, sɛnea metumi akum no.”
Sawulo n’abatuma baddeyo bamulabe era n’abalagira nti, “Mumundeetere mu kitanda kye, mmutte.”
16 Nanso mmarima no wuraa ɔdan no mu no, na ohoni na ɔda mpa no so a abirekyi ho nwi na ɛkata so.
Naye abasajja bwe bagenda yo, ne balaba ekifaananyi ekyole mu kitanda, nga ne ku mutwe kuliko ebyoya by’embuzi.
17 Saulo bisaa Mikal se, “Adɛn nti na woadaadaa me, ama me tamfo aguan?” Mikal buaa no se, “Na ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ saa efisɛ ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Mammoa no a, obekum me.’”
Sawulo n’abuuza Mikali nti, “Lwaki wannimbye bw’otyo, n’oleka omulabe wange okudduka, n’okuwona n’awona?” Mikali n’amuddamu nti, “Yaŋŋambye nti, ‘Bw’otondeke kugenda nzija kukutta.’”
18 Bere a Dawid guanee no, ɔkɔɔ Samuel nkyɛn wɔ Rama kɔkaa nea Saulo ayɛ no no nyinaa kyerɛɛ no. Enti Samuel de Dawid kɔtenaa Naiot.
Awo Dawudi n’addukira eri Samwiri e Laama, n’amutegeeza byonna Sawulo bye yamukola. Ye ne Samwiri ne bagenda e Nayosi ne babeera eyo.
19 Bere a Saulo tee sɛ Dawid te Naiot a ɛwɔ Rama no,
Sawulo n’ategeezebwa nti, “Dawudi ali Nayosi mu Laama;”
20 ɔsomaa asraafo sɛ wɔnkɔkyere no mmra. Nanso woduu a wohuu Samuel ne adiyifo bi sɛ wɔrehyɛ nkɔm no, Onyankopɔn honhom baa Saulo mmarima no so, maa wɔn nso hyɛɛ nkɔm.
n’atuma ababaka okumuwamba. Naye bwe baalaba ekibiina kya bannabbi nga boogera eby’obunnabbi, nga Samwiri ye mukulembeze waabwe, Omwoyo wa Katonda n’akka ku basajja ba Sawulo, nabo ne baba nga bali.
21 Saulo tee asɛm a aba no, ɔsan somaa asraafo foforo, nanso wɔn nso kɔhyɛɛ nkɔm! Asɛm koro no ara sii ne mprɛnsa so.
Awo Sawulo bwe yategeezebwa ekibaddewo, n’atuma ababaka abalala nabo ne baba nga bali. Sawulo n’atuma ekibinja ekyokusatu, era nabo ne baba nga bali.
22 Akyiri yi koraa, Saulo no ankasa kɔɔ Rama, koduu abura kɛse bi a ɛwɔ Seku ho. Obisae se, “Samuel ne Dawid wɔ he?” Obi ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wɔn baanu wɔ Naiot a ɛwɔ Rama hɔ.”
Ekyavaamu, ye yennyini kwe kugenda e Laama, n’atuuka awali oluzzi olunene oluli e Seku, n’abuuza nti, “Samwiri ne Dawudi bali ludda wa?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Bali Nayosi mu Laama.”
23 Na ɔrekɔ Naiot no, ɔkwan no so na Onyankopɔn honhom baa Saulo so, na ɔno nso fii ase hyɛɛ nkɔm.
Awo Sawulo n’agenda e Nayosi mu Laama, naye Omwoyo wa Mukama n’amukkako, n’atambula ng’ayogera eby’obunnabbi okutuuka e Nayosi.
24 Osunsuan nʼatade mu, de ne ho too fam, daa hɔ da mu ne anadwo mu nyinaa, hyɛɛ nkɔm wɔ Samuel anim. Nnipa a wɔrehwɛ no no teɛteɛɛ mu se, “Asɛm ni? Enti daa yi Saulo nso yɛ odiyifo?”
Ne yeyambula ebyambalo bye, n’atandika okwogera nga bannabbi mu maaso ga Samwiri. N’abeera bw’atyo olunaku lwonna n’okuzibya obudde. Abantu kyebaava boogera nti, “Ne Sawulo ali mu bannabbi?”
