1 Samuel 7
1 Enti, Kiriat-Yearimfoɔ bɛgyee Awurade Apam Adaka no. Wɔde kɔɔ Abinadab efie a ɛda bepɔ nkyɛn baabi. Ɛhɔ na wɔdwiraa ne babarima Eleasa sɛ ɔnhwɛ so.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Kiriathu-Jearimu magĩthiĩ, makĩgĩĩra ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova, makĩrĩambatia. Makĩrĩtwara mũciĩ wa Abinadabu kĩrĩma-igũrũ, na makĩamũra mũriũ Eleazaru aikaragie ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova.
2 Apam Adaka no kyɛree yie wɔ Kiriat-Yearim. Ɛdii mfirinhyia aduonu wɔ hɔ. Saa ɛberɛ no Israel nyinaa twaa agyaadwoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ na ayɛ sɛ Awurade agya wɔn.
Ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro nĩrĩaikarire Kiriathu-Jearimu ihinda iraaya, ihinda rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ ĩrĩ yothe, nao andũ othe a Isiraeli magĩcakaya na makĩrongooria Jehova.
3 Na Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ nyinaa sɛ, “Sɛ mode mo akoma nyinaa resane akɔ Awurade nkyɛn deɛ a, ɛnneɛ, montwe mo ho mfiri ananafoɔ anyame ne Astoret ahoni ho. Monsi mo adwene pi sɛ mobɛyɛ ɔsetie ama Awurade, na monsom ɔno nko, na ɔbɛgye mo afiri Filistifoɔ nsam.”
Nake Samũeli akĩĩra nyũmba yothe ya Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩkorwo nĩmũgũcookerera Jehova na ngoro cianyu ciothe-rĩ, tiganai na ngai ngʼeni na Maashitarothu, na mwĩneane kũrĩ Jehova, na mũmũtungatĩre o we wiki, nake nĩakamũkũũra amũrute guoko-inĩ kwa Afilisti.”
4 Enti, Israelfoɔ no too Baalim ne Astoret guiɛ, somm Awurade nko.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩtigana na Mabaali na Maashitarothu, magĩtungatĩra Jehova o we wiki.
5 Afei, Samuel ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa sɛ, “Mo nyinaa mommra Mispa, na memmɔ Awurade mpaeɛ mma mo.”
Ningĩ Samũeli akiuga atĩrĩ, “Cookanĩrĩriai Isiraeli othe kũu Mizipa, na niĩ nĩngamũthaithanĩrĩra harĩ Jehova.”
6 Enti, wɔboaa wɔn ho ano wɔ hɔ. Na wɔn nyankomadeɛ mu no, wɔsaa nsuo firi abura bi mu, na wɔhwie guu Awurade anim. Wɔdii abuada ɛda no, na wɔkaa nokorɛ sɛ wɔayɛ bɔne atia Awurade. Enti, Mispa hɔ na Samuel bɛyɛɛ Israel so ɔtemmufoɔ.
Na rĩrĩa maagomanĩte kũu Mizipa, magĩtaha maaĩ makĩmaita mbere ya Jehova. Mũthenya ũcio makĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio, na makiumbũra mehia mao makiugĩra kũu atĩrĩ, “Nĩ twĩhĩirie Jehova.” Nake Samũeli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria wa Isiraeli kũu Mizipa.
7 Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ sodifoɔ no tee sɛ Israel nyinaa aboa wɔn ho ano wɔ Mispa no, wɔboaboaa wɔn akodɔm ano, tu teneeɛ. Na Israelfoɔ no tee sɛ Filistifoɔ no rebɛn wɔn no, wɔn akoma tuu yie.
Rĩrĩa Afilisti maaiguire atĩ Isiraeli maagomanĩte kũu Mizipa, aathani a Afilisti makĩambata magĩthiĩ makamatharĩkĩre. Na rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maaiguire ũhoro ũcio, makĩnyiitwo nĩ guoya nĩ ũndũ wa Afilisti.
8 Wɔdwane toaa Samuel sɛ, “Srɛ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, na ɔnnye yɛn mfiri Filistifoɔ nsam.”
Makĩĩra Samũeli atĩrĩ, “Ndũgaatige gũkaĩra Jehova Ngai witũ nĩ ũndũ witũ, nĩgeetha atũhonokie kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa Afilisti.”
9 Enti, Samuel faa odwan ba a ɔnyiniiɛ de ne mua no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade. Ɔsrɛɛ Awurade maa Israelfoɔ, na Awurade tieeɛ.
Nake Samũeli akĩoya kagondu koongaga na agĩkarutĩra Jehova igongona rĩa njino karĩ kagima o ro ũguo. Agĩkaĩra Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa Isiraeli, nake Jehova akĩmũcookeria ũhoro.
10 Ɛberɛ a Samuel gu so rebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no, Filistifoɔ no baa sɛ wɔrebɛko. Nanso, Awurade de aprannaa nne a emu yɛ duru yie kasa firi soro, maa basabasayɛ sii Filistifoɔ no mu, maa Israelfoɔ no dii wɔn so nkonim.
Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Samũeli aarutaga igongona rĩa njino-rĩ, Afilisti magĩkuhĩrĩria nĩguo marũe na Isiraeli. No mũthenya ũcio Jehova akĩruruma na marurumĩ manene mũno ma gũũkĩrĩra Afilisti, na agĩtũma mamake mũno o nginya magĩtoorio mũno mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli.
11 Israel mmarima pamoo wɔn firi Mispa, kɔsii Bet-Kar, kunkumm wɔn guu ɛkwan so.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli makiuma kũu Mizipa naihenya, magĩtengʼeria Afilisti makĩmooragaga kũu njĩra-inĩ, makĩmakinyia mũhuro wa Bethi-Kari.
12 Ɛnna Samuel faa ɔboɔ kɛseɛ bi de sii Mispa ne Sen ntam. Na ɔtoo no edin Ebeneser a aseɛ ne “Ɔboa boɔ” na ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛha na Awurade aboa yɛn abɛsi!”
Ningĩ Samũeli akĩoya ihiga na akĩrĩhaanda gatagatĩ ka Mizipa na Sheni. Akĩrĩĩta Ebeni-Ezeri, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nginyagia hau nĩ Jehova ũtũteithĩtie.”
13 Enti, wɔdii Filistifoɔ no so, na wɔantumi ammɛgye Israelfoɔ nsase amfa wɔ ɛberɛ tenten bi mu. Na Samuel nkwa nna mu nyinaa, Awurade nsa a ɛyɛ den no tiaa Filistifoɔ.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Afilisti magĩtoorio mũno na matiacookire gũtharĩkĩra bũrũri wa andũ a Isiraeli rĩngĩ. Ihinda rĩothe rĩrĩa Samũeli aatũũrire muoyo, guoko kwa Jehova gwatũũrire gũũkĩrĩire Afilisti.
14 Na Israel nkuro a ɛbɛn Ekron ne Gat no a na Filistifoɔ no agyegye no. Wɔde asase a aka a Filistifoɔ no agyegyeɛ no kaa ho. Ɛmaa asomdwoeɛ baa Israel ne Amorifoɔ ntam saa ɛberɛ no.
Namo matũũra marĩa Afilisti maatahĩte kũrĩ Isiraeli kuuma Ekironi nginya Gathu magĩcookerera Isiraeli, nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩkũũra bũrũri ũrĩa wariganĩtie na matũũra macio naguo kuuma kũrĩ watho wa Afilisti. Na gũkĩgĩa thayũ gatagatĩ ka Isiraeli na Aamori.
15 Samuel kɔɔ so yɛɛ Israel so ɔtemmufoɔ ne nkwa nna a aka nyinaa.
Samũeli agĩthiĩ na mbere gũtiirĩrĩra Isiraeli matukũ mothe ma muoyo wake.
16 Afe biara, na ɔtu kwan kyinkyini bu atɛn wɔ nʼasɛnniiɛ. Ɔfiri aseɛ wɔ Bet-El de kɔ Gilgal na wawie wɔ Mispa. Ɔbuu Israelfoɔ atɛn wɔ saa nkurotoɔ yi biara so.
Mwaka o mwaka nĩathiũrũrũkaga kuuma Betheli nginya Giligali na Mizipa, agatuithanagia andũ a Isiraeli ciira kũndũ guothe.
17 Afei, na ɔsane ba ne kurom Rama bɛdi nsɛm wɔ hɔ nso. Na Samuel sii afɔrebukyia wɔ Rama de maa Awurade.
No nĩacookaga Rama hĩndĩ ciothe, kũrĩa mũciĩ wake warĩ, o na kũu agatuithanagia ciira kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli arĩ kũu. Nake agĩakĩra Jehova kĩgongona kũu.
