1 Samuel 2
1 Na Hana bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Mʼakoma di ahurisie wɔ Awurade mu! Ao, Awurade mu na me nhyira wɔ! Afei, manya mmuaeɛ ama mʼatamfoɔ, na mʼani gye wɔ wo gyeɛ no ho.
Ndipo Hana anapemphera nati, “Moyo wanga ukukondwera mwa Yehova; Ndiyenda mwa tukumutukumu chifukwa cha Yehova. Pakamwa panga pakula ndi kuseka adani anga mowanyogodola. Ndikukondwa chifukwa mwandipulumutsa.
2 “Obiara nyɛ kronkron sɛ Awurade! Obi bi nka wo ho; Ɔbotan bi nni hɔ sɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn.
“Palibe wina woyera ngati Yehova, palibe wina koma inu nokha, palibe thanthwe lofanana ndi Mulungu wathu.
3 “Gyae ahantansu ne ahomasoɔ no, nkasa wɔ ahantan so saa! Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade yɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔnim wo nneyɛeɛ na ɔbɛbu wo deɛ woayɛ no so atɛn.
“Musandiyankhulenso modzitama, pakamwa panu pasatuluke zonyada, pakuti Yehova ndi Mulungu wanzeru, ndipo ndiye amene amayesa ntchito za anthu onse.
4 “Wɔn a na wɔyɛ atumfoɔ no nnyɛ atumfoɔ bio; na wɔn a na wɔyɛ mmerɛ no nso, afei, wɔayɛ den.
“Mauta a anthu ankhondo athyoka koma anthu ofowoka avala dzilimbe.
5 Wɔn a na wɔdidi mee pintinn no afei ɔkɔm rekum wɔn. Na wɔn a ɔkɔm rekum wɔn no nso afei wɔamee pintinn. Afei, obonini wɔ mma baason, na ɔbaa a na ɔwɔ mma pii no mma bɛbɔ no.
Amene kale anali okhuta tsopano akukagula chakudya, koma iwo amene anali ndi njala sakumvanso njala. Amene anali wosabereka, wabereka ana aamuna asanu ndi awiri, koma iye wobereka ana ambiri watsala yekha.
“Yehova amabweretsa imfa ndipo amaperekanso moyo, amatsitsira ku manda ndipo amawatulutsakonso. (Sheol h7585)
7 Awurade yɛ obi ohiani na wayɛ obi ɔdefoɔ; ɔbrɛ obi ase na wapagya obi.
Yehova amasaukitsa ndipo amalemeretsa, amatsitsa ndipo amakweza.
8 Ɔpagya ohiani firi mfuturo mu aane, ɔyi no firi nsosie mu; ɔyɛ wɔn sɛ mmapɔmma de wɔn tena animuonyam nkonnua so. “Ɛfiri sɛ, asase fapem yɛ Awurade dea, na watoto ewiase sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ.
Iye amakweza osauka kuwachotsa pa fumbi, ndipo amachotsa anthu osowa pa dzala. Iye amawakhazika pamodzi ndi ana a mafumu, amawapatsa mpando waulemu. “Pakuti nsanamira za dziko lapansi ndi za Yehova, anakhazika dziko lapansi pa nsanamirazo.
9 Ɔbɛbɔ nyamesurofoɔ ho ban, na amumuyɛfoɔ bɛyera esum mu. “Sɛ ahoɔden mu nko deɛ a, obi renni nim;
Iye adzateteza moyo wa anthu okhulupirika koma anthu oyipa adzawonongedwa mu mdima. “Pakuti munthu sapambana ndi mphamvu zake.
10 Wɔn a wɔko tia Awurade no, ɔbɛdwerɛ wɔn. Ɔdwa aprannaa firi ewiem gu wɔn so; Awurade bu atɛn wɔ asase so baabiara. “Ɔma ne ɔhempɔn ahoɔden kɛseɛ; deɛ wasra no no, ɔhyɛ nʼahoɔden mu den.”
Yehova adzaphwanya omutsutsa. Adzawaopsa ndi bingu kuchokera kumwamba; Yehova adzaweruza mathero a dziko lapansi. “Koma adzapereka mphamvu kwa mfumu yake, adzakuza mphamvu za odzozedwa wake.”
11 Afei, Elkana ne Hana gyaa Samuel hɔ kɔɔ efie wɔ Rama. Na abarimaa no bɛyɛɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔboaa ɔsɔfoɔ Eli.
Tsono Elikana anapita ku mudzi kwawo ku Rama, koma mnyamatayo amatumikira Yehova pansi pa ulamuliro wa wansembe Eli.
12 Eli mmammarima no yɛ asansafoɔ a wɔmfɛre Awurade,
Ana a Eli anali ana achabechabe pakuti samasamala za Yehova.
13 anaa wɔn asɔfodwuma. Ɛberɛ biara a obi bɛba abɛbɔ afɔdeɛ no na wɔrenoa ɛnam no, Eli mma no soma ɔsomfoɔ de adinam a ɛwɔ ano mmiɛnsa ba. Ɛberɛ a ɛnam no si ogya so no,
Ndipo chizolowezi cha ansembe pakati pa anthu chinali motere kuti pamene munthu aliyense ankapereka nsembe ndipo nyama ija ikuwira pa moto, mtumiki wa wansembe ankabwera ndi chifoloko cha mano atatu mʼdzanja lake.
14 ɔsomfoɔ no de adinam no wɔ dadesɛn no mu. Na wɔhyɛ sɛ deɛ adinam no bɛwɔ mu no nyinaa yɛ Eli mma no dea. Wɔde Israelfoɔ a wɔba Silo hɔ nyinaa faa saa ɛkwan yi so.
Iye ankachipisa mu mʼphikamo, ndipo wansembeyo amatenga chilichonse chimene folokoyo yabaya. Umu ndi mmene ansembewo amachitira ndi Aisraeli onse amene amabwera ku Silo.
15 Ɛtɔ dabi a, ansa na wɔbɛhye sradeɛ no, ɔsɔfoɔ no ɔsomfoɔ ba bɛka kyerɛ onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no sɛ, “Ma ɔsɔfoɔ no ɛnam no bi, na ɔntoto. Ɔmpɛ wo ɛnam a woanoa, na mmom, ɛnam mono nko ara.”
Ndipo ngakhale mafuta asanatenthedwe, mtumiki wansembe amabwera ndi kunena kwa munthu amene akupereka nsembeyo kuti, “Ndipatse nyama kuti ndiwotche, pakuti Yehova salandira nyama yophika koma yayiwisi.”
16 Onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no ka sɛ, “Fa dodoɔ biara a wopɛ, nanso sradeɛ no deɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye ansa.” Ɛhɔ na ɔsomfoɔ no bɛka sɛ, “Dabi, fa ma me seesei ara, anyɛ saa a, mede tumi bɛfa.”
Ngati munthuyo anena kuti, “Apseretu mafuta poyamba, ndipo kenaka mutenge mmene mufunira,” mtumikiyo amayankha kuti, “Ayi ndipatse tsopano lino. Ngati sutero, ine nditenga molanda.”
17 Na saa bɔne a mmeranteɛ yi yɛ yi yɛ akyiwadeɛ wɔ Awurade anim, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔbu Awurade afɔrebɔ no animtia.
Tchimo la ana a Eli linali lalikulu kwambiri pamaso pa Yehova pakuti iwo amanyoza nsembe za Yehova.
18 Samuel deɛ, ɛwom na ɔyɛ abarimaa, nanso na ɔyɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ. Na wɔde nwera asɔfotadeɛ ahyɛ no te sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ.
Koma Samueli amatumikira pamaso pa Yehova atavala efodi ya nsalu yofewa yosalala.
19 Afe biara a ne maame ne ne kunu rekɔbɔ afirinhyia afɔdeɛ no, na ne maame pam batakari kumaa bi de kɔma no.
Chaka chilichonse amayi ake ankamusokera kamkanjo ndi kukamupatsa akamapita ndi mwamuna wake kukapereka nsembe za pa chaka.
20 Ansa na wɔbɛsane akɔ efie no, Eli hyira Elkana ne ne yere ka sɛ, “Awurade mma ɔbaa yi nwo mma, na ɔmmɛsi deɛ ɔbɔɔ ho mpaeɛ nyaeɛ a ɔde no maa Awurade no ananmu.”
Tsono Eli amadalitsa Elikana ndi mkazi wake ndi mawu akuti “Yehova akupatseni ana mwa mkazi uyu kulowa mʼmalo mwa amene anapempha ndi kumupereka kwa Yehova.”
21 Na Awurade maa Hana woo mmammarima baasa ne mmammaa baanu. Na Samuel nyinii wɔ Awurade anim.
Ndipo Yehova anamukomera mtima Hana. Anakhala ndi pathupi ndi kubereka ana aamuna atatu ndi ana aakazi awiri. Ndipo Samueli ankakula pamaso pa Yehova.
22 Afei, Eli bɔɔ akɔkoraa, nanso na ɔnim deɛ ne mmammarima no de reyɛ Israelfoɔ. Nhwɛsoɔ bi ne sɛ, na ɔnim sɛ ne mmammarima no fa mmabaawa a wɔboa ntomadan no ano adwumayɛ no.
Tsono Eli anakalamba kwambiri. Iye ankamva zonse zimene ana ake aamuna ankachitira Aisraeli onse, ndiponso kuti ankagona ndi akazi pa chipata cha tenti ya msonkhano.
23 Eli ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Metete mo ho nsɛm firi ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn a ɛfa amumuyɛsɛm a modie no ho. Adɛn enti na mokɔ so yɛ bɔne?
Choncho anawafunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukuchita zinthu zotere? Ine ndikumva kuchokera kwa anthu onse za zoyipa zanuzo.
24 Me mma, ɛsɛ sɛ mogyae! Mo ho nsɛm a metete firi Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nkyɛn fa mo ho no nyɛ.
Ayi, ana anga si mbiri yabwino imene ndikumva anthu a Mulungu akufalitsa.
25 Sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia ɔfoforɔ a, Onyankopɔn tumi gyina mu ma ɔfɔdifoɔ no. Nanso, sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia Awurade a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi adi agyinamu?” Eli mma no antie wɔn agya no afotuo, na Awurade nso reyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛkum wɔn.
Ngati munthu alakwira munthu mnzake, mwina Mulungu adzamupepesera, koma ngati munthu achimwira Yehova adzamupepesera ndani?” Koma ana ake sanamvere kudzudzula kwa abambo awo, pakuti chinali cholinga cha Yehova kuti awaphe.
26 Na abɔfra Samuel nyiniiɛ, na ɔkɔɔ so nyaa adom firii Awurade ne ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn.
Ndipo mnyamata Samueli anapitirira kukula mu msinkhu, ndipo ankapeza kuyanja pamaso pa Yehova ndi anthu.
27 Ɛda koro bi Onyankopɔn onipa bi baa Eli nkyɛn de nkra yi brɛɛ no sɛ, “Sei na Awurade ka, ‘Manna me ho adi pefee ankyerɛ wʼagya fie ɛberɛ a na wɔyɛ nkoa wɔ Misraim no anaa?
Tsiku lina munthu wa Mulungu anabwera kwa Eli ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Kodi Ine sindinadziwulule ndekha kwa banja la kholo lako pamene iwo anali akapolo a Farao ku Igupto?
28 Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa mu no, Aaron na meyii no sɛ, ɔnyɛ me ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔbɛkɔ afɔrebukyia anim akɔhye aduhwam, na wahyɛ asɔfotadeɛ wɔ mʼanim. Na mede afɔdeɛ a wɔbɔɔ no ogya so no nyinaa maa mo asɔfoɔ no.
Ndipo ndinamusankha pakati pa mafuko a Israeli kuti akhale wansembe wanga ndi kuti azipita pa guwa langa la nsembe, kufukiza Lubani ndi kuvala efodi pamaso panga. Ndinapatsa banja la abambo ako gawo la nsembe zonse zopsereza zimene Aisraeli amapereka.
29 Adɛn enti na motiatia me kum afɔdeɛ ne mʼaduane afɔdeɛ so? Adɛn enti na mobu mo mmammarima sene me? Moawe afɔrebɔdeɛ a me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ bɔ no mu kyɛfa a ɛyɛ no, na monam so ayeyɛ akɛseɛ!’
Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukunyoza nsembe ndi zopereka zanga zimene ndinalamula? Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukupereka ulemu kwa ana ako kuposa Ine podzinenepetsa nokha ndi zopereka zabwino kwambiri za nsembe zimene Aisraeli amapereka?’”
30 “Enti, asɛm a Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ka ne sɛ, ‘Meremma nneɛma bɔne a moreyɛ yi nkɔ so! Mehyɛɛ bɔ sɛ wo Lewi abusua fa no bɛyɛ mʼasɔfoɔ, nanso, wɔn a wɔdi me ni no, mɛdi wɔn ni; na wɔn a wɔbu me animtia no, mɛbɔ wɔn ahohora.
“Paja Ine Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli ‘Ndinalonjeza kuti anthu a pa banja lako ndi a pa banja la abambo ako azidzanditumikira nthawi zonse.’ Koma tsopano ndikuti, ‘Zonsezi zithe!’ Tsopano anthu amene amandilemekeza Inenso ndidzawalemekeza koma iwo amene amandinyoza Ine ndidzawanyoza.

Nthawi ikubwera imene ndidzachotsa anyamata ako ndi anyamata a pa banja la abambo ako, kotero kuti sipadzakhala munthu wokalamba pa banja lako.
32 Mode anibereɛ na ɛbɛhwɛ nkɔsoɔ a mede bɛma me nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ. Na mo abusuafoɔ no mu biara nni hɔ a ɔbɛbɔ akɔkoraa.
Pa mavuto ako udzayangʼana ndi maso ansanje zabwino zimene ndidzachitira Aisraeli ena. Mʼbanja lako simudzapezeka munthu wokalamba.
33 Wɔn a wɔbɛka akyire no bɛtena ase awerɛhoɔ ne ntehem mu. Na wɔn mma bɛwuwu atɔfowuo.

34 “‘Na sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ na wobɛhunu sɛ deɛ maka no bɛba mu saa no enti, mɛma wo mmammarima baanu no a ɛyɛ Hofni ne Pinehas no awuwu da korɔ mu.
“‘Ndipo chimene chidzachitike kwa ana ako awiriwa, Hofini ndi Finehasi, chidzakhala chizindikiro kwa iwe. Onse awiri adzafa pa tsiku limodzi.
35 Ɛno akyi masi ɔsɔfoɔ foforɔ a ɔyɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a ɔbɛsom me, na wayɛ deɛ mɛkyerɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ biara. Mɛhyira nʼasefoɔ, na ne fiefoɔ bɛyɛ ahene a mɛsra wɔn ngo no asefoɔ akɔsi daa.
