1 Samuel 12
1 Afei, Samuel kasa kyerɛɛ ɔman no bio sɛ, “Deɛ mopɛɛ sɛ meyɛ no mayɛ, mama mo ɔhene.
Na ka mea a Hamuera ki a Iharaira katoa, Nana, kua rongo nei ahau ki to koutou reo, ki nga mea katoa i kiia mai ki ahau, kua whakakingi hoki i tetahi kingi mo koutou.
2 Matwa me mmammarima ho ayi no, na megyina ha sɛ akɔkoraa tidwono. Masom sɛ mo ɔkannifoɔ firi me mmɔfraase.
Ina, te kingi na, e haereere na i to koutou aroaro: ko ahau hoki, kua koroheketia ahau, kua hina; a ko aku tama kei a koutou ena: no toku tamarikitanga hoki toku haereere i to koutou aroaro a tae noa mai ki tenei ra.
3 Afei, monka nkyerɛ me, ɛberɛ a megyina Awurade ne deɛ wɔasra no wɔ ne din mu anim yi, hwan nantwie anaa nʼafunumu na mawia? Masisi mo mu bi pɛn anaa? Madi mo nya pɛn anaa? Magye adanmudeɛ bi pɛn anaa? Sɛ mayɛ bɔne bi a, monka nkyerɛ me, na mɛtenetene deɛ manyɛ no yie.”
Tenei ahau: whakaaturia mai toku he i te aroaro o Ihowa, i te aroaro ano hoki o tana tangata i whakawahi ai: i tango ranei ahau i te kau a tetahi? i tango ranei ahau i te kaihe a tetahi? i riro mai ranei i ahau nga taonga o tetahi? i tukinotia ra nei e ahau tetahi? i tango ranei ahau i te utu whakapati a tetahi hei mea kia huna oku kanohi? a ka whakahokia e ahau ki a koutou.
4 Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Dabi, wonsisii yɛn, na wonnii yɛn nya ɛkwan biara so, na wonnyee adanmudeɛ fua pɛ mpo.”
Ano ra ko ratou, Kihai tetahi mea a matou i riro he i a koe, kihai hoki koe i tukino i a matou, kihai ano hoki i tangohia e koe tetahi mea a te tangata.
5 Samuel kaa sɛ, “Awurade ne ne onipa a wɔasra no no yɛ mʼadansefoɔ sɛ morentumi nka sɛ mabɔ mo korɔno.” Wɔn nyinaa kaa sɛ, “Ampa ara, ɛyɛ nokorɛ!”
Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko Ihowa hei kaiwhakaatu mo ta koutou; hei kaiwhakaatu ano hoki inaianei tana tangata i whakawahi ai, kihai i mau i a koutou tetahi mea a toku ringa. A ka mea ratou, Hei kaiwhakaatu ano ia.
6 Samuel toaa so sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔyii Mose ne Aaron. Ɔno na ɔyii mo agyanom firii Misraim asase so.
Na ka mea a Hamuera ki te iwi, Na Ihowa i whakatu a Mohi raua ko Arona, nana hoki o koutou matua i kawe mai i te whenua o Ihipa.
7 Seesei, monnyina ha dinn wɔ Awurade anim ɛberɛ a megu so rekaakae mo nneɛma akɛseɛ a Awurade ayɛ ama mo ne mo agyanom no.
Na, tu tonu koutou, a ka whakahaerea e ahau ki a koutou ki te aroaro o Ihowa nga mahi tika katoa a Ihowa i mahia e ia ki a koutou, ki o koutou matua hoki.
8 “Ɛberɛ a na Israelfoɔ wɔ Misraim na wɔsu frɛɛ Awurade no, ɔsomaa Mose ne Aaron sɛ, wɔnnyi wɔn mfiri Misraim, na wɔmfa wɔn mmra saa asase yi so.
I te haerenga atu o Hakopa ki Ihipa, a ka tangi o koutou matua ki a Ihowa, na ka tonoa e Ihowa a Mohi raua ko Arona hei whakaputa mai i o koutou matua i Ihipa, hei whakanoho hoki i a ratou ki tenei wahi.
9 “Nanso, ankyɛre biara na nnipa no werɛ firii Awurade, wɔn Onyankopɔn, enti ɔmaa Sisera a ɔyɛ Hasor akodɔm sahene no ne Filistifoɔ ne Moabhene dii wɔn so.
A ka wareware ratou ki a Ihowa, ki to ratou Atua, na hokona ana ratou e ia ki te ringa o Hihera, rangatira o te ope a Hatoro, ki te ringa hoki o nga Pirihitini, ki te ringa hoki o te kingi o Moapa, a whawhai ana ratou ki a ratou.
10 Afei, wɔsu frɛɛ Awurade bio, na wɔpaee mu kaa wɔn bɔne sɛ, ‘Yɛayɛ bɔne sɛ yɛatwe yɛn ho afiri Awurade ho, na yɛresom ahoni Baalim ne Astoret. Na sɛ wogye yɛn firi yɛn atamfoɔ nsam a, yɛbɛsom wo, na wo nko ara na yɛbɛsom.’
A ka tangi atu ratou ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Kua hara matou, i a matou i whakarere nei i a Ihowa, i mahi ki nga Paara, ki a Ahataroto; otiia whakaorangia matou i te ringa o o matou hoariri, a ka mahi matou ki a koe.
11 Na Awurade somaa Yerub-Baal, Barak, Yefta ne Samuel, na ɔgyee mo firii mo atamfoɔ nsam na mobɛtenaa asomdwoeɛ mu.
Na ka unga mai e Ihowa a Ierupaara, a Perana, a Iepeta, a Hamuera, a whakaorangia ana koutou i roto i nga ringa o o koutou hoariri i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, a noho wehikore noa iho ana koutou.
12 “Nanso, mosuroo Amonfoɔ ɔhene Nahas enti, moka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, ‘Dabi, yɛrepɛ ɔhene ama wadi yɛn so’—nanso na Awurade mo Onyankopɔn yɛ mo so ɔhene.
A, no to koutou kitenga e haere mai ana a Nahaha kingi o nga tama a Amona ki a koutou, ka mea koutou ki ahau, Kahore, engari me whai kingi ano matou; i te mea ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua to koutou kingi.
13 Afei, mo ɔhene a moayi no nie; deɛ mobisaeɛ no. Hwɛ, Awurade ayɛ mo apɛdeɛ ama mo.
Ina ra te kingi i whiriwhiria nei e koutou, i tonoa nei e koutou! Nana, kua hoatu e Ihowa he kingi mo koutou.
14 Sɛ mosuro Awurade, na mosom no, tie nʼasɛm, na sɛ moammu ne mmara so, na mo ne mo ɔhene a ɔdi mo so no nyinaa di Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn akyi a, biribiara bɛyɛ yie.
Ki te wehi koutou i a Ihowa, ki te mahi ki a ia, ki te whakarongo ki tona reo, ki te kore hoki e tutu ki te kupu a Ihowa, katahi koutou ko te kingi e kingi ana i a koutou ka whai tonu i a Ihowa, i to koutou Atua.
15 Na sɛ moantie Awurade, na motia ne mmara a, ne nsa bɛyɛ duru wɔ mo so sɛdeɛ ɛyɛɛ mo agyanom so no.
Engari ki te kore koutou e rongo ki te reo o Ihowa, a ka tutu ano ki te kupu a Ihowa, katahi ka anga mai ki a koutou te ringa o Ihowa, ka rite ki tana ki o koutou matua.
16 “Enti afei, monnyina hɔ dinn, na monhwɛ ade kɛseɛ a Awurade rebɛyɛ.
Tena, tu tonu koutou, kia kite koutou i tenei mea nui ka meatia nei e Ihowa ki to koutou aroaro.
17 Monim sɛ saa ɛberɛ yi a ɛyɛ ayuotwaberɛ yi, osuo nntɔ. Mɛma Awurade adwa aprannaa na ama osuo atɔ. Afei mobɛhunu bɔne a moyɛeɛ sɛ mobisaa ɔhene no.”
Ehara ianei tenei i te kotinga witi inaianei? Ka karanga ahau ki a Ihowa, a ka homai he whatitiri, he ua, kia mohio ai koutou, kia kite ai, he nui to koutou he i meatia nei e koutou i te aroaro o Ihowa i a koutou i tono kingi nei mo koutou.
18 Ɛhɔ ara Samuel frɛɛ Awurade, na ɛda no ara, Awurade dwaa aprannaa, tɔɔ osuo. Nnipa no nyinaa suroo Awurade ne Samuel.
Na ka karanga a Hamuera ki a Ihowa, a homai ana e Ihowa he whatitiri, he ua, i taua rangi ano. Na nui noa atu te wehi o te iwi katoa ki a Ihowa, ki a Hamuera.
19 Nnipa no nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ Samuel sɛ, “Bɔ Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, mpaeɛ ma wʼasomfoɔ sɛdeɛ yɛrenwuo, na yɛrenyɛ bɔne nka yɛn bɔne ahodoɔ nyinaa ho sɛ yɛabisa ɔhene.”
Na ka mea te iwi katoa ki a Hamuera, Inoi atu mo au pononga ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua, kei mate matou; kua tapiritia hoki o matou hara katoa ki tenei kino, ki ta matou tono i te kingi mo matou.
20 Samuel buaa sɛ, “Monnsuro. Moayɛ saa bɔne yi nyinaa bi deɛ, nanso monnnane mo ani mfiri Awurade so, na momfa mo akoma nyinaa nsom Awurade.
Ano ra ko Hamuera ki te iwi, Kaua e wehi: kua oti tenei kino katoa te mea e koutou, kaua ia e peka atu i te whai a Ihowa; engari me whakapau o koutou ngakau ki te mahi ki a Ihowa.
21 Monnsane nkɔdi ahoni huhuo a wɔrenyɛ mo papa biara, na wɔrentumi nnye mo nkwa no akyi, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔn ho nni mfasoɔ.
Kaua ano hoki e peka atu: ko reira hoki koutou whai ai i nga mea tekateka noa, e kore e mana, e kore ano hoki e whakaora; he mea tekateka noa hoki.
22 Esiane ne din kɛseɛ no enti, Awurade rempo ne nkurɔfoɔ. Awurade afa mo sɛ nʼankasa nʼadeɛ.
E kore hoki a Ihowa e whakarere i tana iwi, ka mahara ia ki tona ingoa nui; kua pai nei hoki a Ihowa ki te mea i a koutou hei iwi mana.
23 Na me deɛ, merenyɛ bɔne ntia Awurade sɛ meremmɔ mpaeɛ mma mo. Na mɛkɔ so akyerɛ mo papa ne bɔne.
Ko ahau hoki! E! kia hara ahau ki a Ihowa! kia mutu taku inoi mo koutou! Tena ko tenei, me whakaako koutou e ahau ki te ara pai, ki te ara tika.
24 Nanso, monhwɛ sɛ mobɛsuro Awurade na moasom no nokorɛm.
Engari kia wehi i a Ihowa; whakapaua hoki o koutou ngakau ki te mahi ki a ia i runga i te pono; whakaaroa hoki nga mea nunui i mea ai ia ki a koutou.
25 Na sɛ mokɔ so yɛ bɔne a, wɔbɛsɛe mo ne mo ɔhene nyinaa.”
Na, ki te mahi tonu koutou i te he, ka ngaro ngatahi koutou ko to koutou kingi.
