Ammoni Nahash te cet tih Jabesh Gilead te a rhaeh thil. Te vaengah Nahash taengah Jabesh hlang boeih loh, “Kaimih neh moi bop sih lamtah nang taengah ka thotat uh eh,” a ti nah.
2 Nahas kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, na adeɛ baako pɛ na ɛsɛ sɛ mopene so. Ɛne sɛ, mɛtu obiara ani nifa baako de agu Israel nyinaa anim ase.”
Tedae amih te Ammoni Nahash loh, “Nangmih taengah he he ka saii ni. Nangmih kah bantang mik te boeih aka koeih vetih Israel boeih soah kokhahnah ka khuen pah ni,” a ti nah.
3 Na Yabes mpanin no buaa sɛ, “Ma yɛn nnanson, na yɛmfa nsoma abɔfoɔ mfa Israel nyinaa, na sɛ yɛn abusuafoɔ amma ammɛgye yɛn deɛ a, yɛbɛpene wo nhyehyɛeɛ no so.”
Te dongah anih te Jabesh a hamca rhoek loh, “Kaimih ham khohnin hnin rhih mah ham hmoel lamtah Israel khorhi tom ah puencawn ka tueih eh. Te vaengah kaimih he n'khang uh pawt atah nang taengla ka kun uh bitni,” a ti nah.
4 Abɔfoɔ no bɛduruu Gibea a ɛyɛ Saulo kurom, bɛkaa asɛm a ato wɔn no kyerɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ maa wɔn nyinaa suiɛ.
Te dongah puencawn rhoek loh Saul kah Gibeah a pha uh vaengah pilnam kah a hna ah ol a thui pa uh hatah pilnam pum loh a ol a huel uh tih rhap uh.
5 Saa ɛberɛ no, na Saulo refuntum nʼafuo. Na ɔbaa efie no, ɔbisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn asɛm na asie? Adɛn enti na nisuo abu obiara kɔn yi?” Enti, wɔbɔɔ asɛm a ɛfiri Yabes hɔ aba no ho amanneɛ.
Te vaengah Saul tah lohma lamloh saelhung hnukah pakcak ha pawk. Te dongah Saul loh, “Pilnam he balae tih a rhah,” a ti nah hatah Jabesh hlang rhoek kah olka te a thui pauh.
6 Onyankopɔn honhom bɛsii Saulo so dendeenden. Na ne bo fuu yie.
Pathen Mueihla loh Saul soah a thaihtak sak tih te rhoek kah ol te a yaak a yaak vaengah a thintoek khaw muep sai.
7 Ɔfaa anantwie mmienu, twitwaa wɔn asinasini, na wɔmaa abɔfoɔ no soa kyinii Israel nyinaa, de saa nkratoɔ yi kaa ho sɛ, “Obiara a wanni Saulo ne Samuel akyi ankɔ ɔko no, saa ara na ne nantwie bɛyɛ!” Na Awurade maa nnipa no suroo Saulo abufuo no. Enti, wɔn nyinaa bɛboaa wɔn ho ano.
Te dongah vaito rhoi a loh tih a tloek. Te phoeiah puencawn rhoek kut neh Israel khorhi tom ah a pat tih, “Saul hnuk neh Samuel hnukah aka mop pawt tah a vaito bangla a saii ni,” a ti nah. Te vaengah BOEIPA kah birhihnah loh pilnam a tlak thil tih hlang loh pakhat la ha pawk uh.
8 Ɛberɛ a Saulo boaa wɔn ano wɔ Besek a ɔkan wɔn no, na Israel mmarima dodoɔ yɛ ɔpehasa ne Yudafoɔ a wɔn dodoɔ yɛ ɔpeduasa.
Te vaengah Bezek kah rhoek te a soep hatah Israel ca thawng ya thum neh Judah hlang thawng sawmthum om uh.
9 Enti, Saulo somaa abɔfoɔ no ma wɔsane wɔn akyi kɔɔ Yabes Gilead kɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ɔkyena awia prɛmtoberɛ mu, yɛbɛyi mo afiri mo ahokyere no mu.” Abɔfoɔ no duruu kuro no mu no, anigyeɛ bunkam faa hɔ.
Te vaengah aka pawk puencawn rhoek te, “Jabesh hlang taengah he he thui pah. Thangvuen kho a ling, a ling vaengah loeihnah loh nangmih taengah om ni,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah puencawn rhoek te cet uh tih Jabesh hlang rhoek taengah a puen pa uh daengah a kohoe uh.
10 Na Yabes mmarima ka kyerɛɛ wɔn atamfoɔ no sɛ, “Ɔkyena yɛbɛba mo so, na deɛ mopɛ no, monyɛ yɛn.”
Te dongah Jabesh hlang rhoek loh, “Thangvuen ah nangmih taengla ka kun uh vetih na mik dongah then na ti bangla kaimih taengah boeih na saii thai,” a ti nah.
11 Nanso, ansa na adeɛ rebɛkye no, na Saulo aduru hɔ dada. Ɔkyekyɛɛ nʼakodɔm no mu akuo mmiɛnsa. Ɔto hyɛɛ Amonfoɔ no so mpofirim, kunkumm wɔn anɔpa mu no nyinaa. Wɔn akodɔm nkaeɛ no bɔ hwetee baabiara a obi mpo nhunu sɛ wɔn mu baanu bi gyina baabi.
A vuen ah pilnam te Saul loh hlop thum la a boel tih mincang khopo ah rhaehhmuen khui te a muk uh. Ammon te khosae duela a tloek uh. Te dongah aka sueng rhoek khaw taekyaak uh tih amih khuiah tun bok pataeng paih uh pawh.
12 Afei, nnipa no teaam frɛɛ Samuel sɛ, “Nnipa a wɔka sɛ ɛnsɛ sɛ Saulo di yɛn so ɔhene no wɔ he? Momfa wɔn mmra na yɛnkum wɔn.”
Te phoeiah pilnam loh Samuel taengah, “'Saul he mamih soah manghai mai saeh a?' aka ti te unim? Tekah hlang te nang khuen vetih ka duek sak uh mako,” a ti nah.
13 Nanso, Saulo buaa sɛ, “Wɔrenkum obiara ɛnnɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade agye Israel ɛnnɛ.”
Tedae Saul loh, “Tihnin ah BOEIPA loh Israel ham loeihnah han saii coeng dongah tekah hlang te tihnin ah duek boel saeh,” a ti nah.
14 Na Samuel ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Mommra na yɛn nyinaa nkɔ Gilgal nkɔsi Saulo ahennie no so dua.”
Te phoeiah pilnam te Samuel loh, “Halo uh lah, Gilgal la cet uh sih lamtah mangpa ke pahoi tlaih uh sih,” a ti nah.
15 Enti, wɔn nyinaa kɔɔ Gilgal, na wɔhyɛɛ Saulo sahenekyɛ wɔ Awurade anim. Na wɔbɔɔ asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade, na Saulo ne Israelfoɔ nyinaa ani gyeeɛ.
Te dongah pilnam pum loh Gilgal la cet uh tih Saul te Gilgal kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pahoi a manghai sakuh. Te vaengah rhoepnah hmueih te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah pahoi a ngawn uh tih Saul neh Israel hlang boeih loh bahoeng a kohoe uh.
