And now here! the king - [is] walking about before you and I I am old and I am gray haired and sons my here they [are] with you and I I have walked about before you since youth my until the day this.

3 Èmi dúró níhìn-ín yìí, ẹ jẹ́rìí sí mi níwájú Olúwa àti níwájú ẹni àmì òróró rẹ̀. Màlúù ta ni mo gbà rí? Kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ta ni mo gbà rí? Ta ni mo rẹ́ jẹ rí? Ọwọ́ ta ni mo ti gba owó àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ kan rí láti fi bo ara mi lójú? Bí mo bá ti ṣe nǹkan kan nínú ohun wọ̀nyí, èmi yóò sì san án padà fún yín.”

Here [am] I testify against me before Yahweh and before anointed his [the] ox of - whom? have I taken and [the] donkey of whom? have I taken and whom? have I oppressed whom? have I crushed and from [the] hand of whom? have I taken a ransom so I may hide eyes my by it so I may restore [it] to you.

4 Wọ́n sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ìwọ kò rẹ́ wa jẹ tàbí pọ́n wa lójú rí, ìwọ kò sì gba ohunkóhun lọ́wọ́ ẹnìkankan.”

And they said not you have oppressed us and not you have crushed us and not you have taken from [the] hand of anyone anything.

And he said to them [is] a witness Yahweh on you and [is] a witness anointed his the day this that not you have found in hand my anything and someone said [he is] a witness.

6 Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli wí fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Olúwa ni ó yan Mose àti Aaroni àti ti ó mú àwọn baba ńlá yín gòkè wá láti Ejibiti.

And he said Samuel to the people Yahweh who he appointed Moses and Aaron and who he brought up ancestors your from [the] land of Egypt.

7 Nísinsin yìí, ẹ dúró níbi, nítorí èmi ń lọ láti bá a yín sọ̀rọ̀ níwájú Olúwa ní ti gbogbo ìṣe òdodo rẹ̀ tí ó ti ṣe fún un yín àti fún àwọn baba yín.

And therefore present yourselves so let me enter into judgment with you before Yahweh all [the] righteousness of Yahweh which he did with you and with ancestors your.

8 “Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Jakọbu wọ Ejibiti, wọ́n ké pe Olúwa fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, Olúwa sì rán Mose àti Aaroni, tí wọ́n mú àwọn baba ńlá yín jáde láti Ejibiti láti mú wọn jókòó níbí yìí.

Just when he went Jacob Egypt and they cried out ancestors your to Yahweh and he sent Yahweh Moses and Aaron and they brought out ancestors your from Egypt and they caused to dwell them in the place this.

9 “Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n gbàgbé Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì tà wọ́n sí ọwọ́ àwọn Sisera, olórí ogun Hasori, àti sí ọwọ́ àwọn Filistini àti sí ọwọ́ ọba Moabu, tí ó bá wọn jà.

And they forgot Yahweh God their and he sold them in [the] hand of Sisera [the] commander of [the] army of Hazor and in [the] hand of [the] Philistines and in [the] hand of [the] king of Moab and they fought against them.

10 Wọ́n kégbe pe Olúwa, wọ́n sì wí pé, ‘Àwa ti ṣẹ̀; a ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀, a sì ti sin Baali, àti Aṣtoreti. Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí gbà wá lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wa, àwa yóò sì sìn ọ́.’

And they cried out to Yahweh (and they said *Q(K)*) we have sinned for we have forsaken Yahweh and we have served the Baals and the Ashtaroth and now deliver us from [the] hand of enemies our so we may serve you.

11 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa rán Jerubbaali, Bedani, Jefta àti Samuẹli, ó sì gbà yín lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá a yín gbogbo, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin ń gbé ní àlàáfíà.

And he sent Yahweh Jerub-Baal and Bedan and Jephthah and Samuel and he delivered you from [the] hand of enemies your from round about and you dwelt security.

12 “Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ẹ̀yin sì rí i pé Nahaṣi ọba àwọn Ammoni dìde sí i yín, ẹ sọ fún mi pé, ‘Rárá, àwa ń fẹ́ ọba tí yóò jẹ́ lórí wa,’ bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín jẹ́ ọba yín.

And you saw that Nahash [the] king of [the] people of Ammon [was] coming on you and you said to me In-deed a king he will reign over us and Yahweh God your [was] king your.

13 Nísinsin yìí èyí ni ọba tí ẹ̀yin ti yàn, tí ẹ̀yin béèrè fún; wò ó, Olúwa ti fi ọba jẹ lórí yín.

And now here! the king whom you have chosen whom you asked for and here! he has set Yahweh over you a king.

14 Bí ẹ̀yin bá bẹ̀rù Olúwa àti bí ẹ̀yin bá ń sìn ín, tí ẹ sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀, tí ẹ̀yin kò sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí àṣẹ rẹ̀, àti tí ẹ̀yin àti ọba tí ó jẹ lórí yín bá ń tẹ̀lé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín: ó dára

If you will fear Yahweh and you will serve him and you will listen to voice his and not you will rebel against [the] mouth of Yahweh and you will be both you as well as the king who he has become king over you after Yahweh God your.

15 ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹ̀yin kò bá gbọ́ tí Olúwa, tí ẹ sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí àṣẹ rẹ̀, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ yóò wà lára yín sí ibi, bí ó ti wà lára baba yín.

And if not you will listen to [the] voice of Yahweh and you will rebel against [the] mouth of Yahweh and it will be [the] hand of Yahweh on you and on ancestors your.

16 “Nítorí náà, ẹ dúró jẹ́ẹ́ kí ẹ sì wo ohun ńlá yìí tí Olúwa fẹ́ ṣe ní ojú u yín!

Also now stand and see the thing great this which Yahweh [is] about to do to eyes your.

17 Òní kì í ha á ṣe ọjọ́ ìkórè ọkà alikama bí? Èmi yóò ké pe Olúwa kí ó rán àrá àti òjò. Ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ irú ohun búburú tí ẹ ti ṣe níwájú Olúwa nígbà tí ẹ̀ ń béèrè fún ọba.”

¿ Not [is] [the] harvest of wheat this day I will call out to Yahweh so he may give thunder claps and rain and know and see that evil your [is] great which you have done in [the] eyes of Yahweh by asking for yourselves a king.

18 Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli ké pe Olúwa, Olúwa sì rán àrá àti òjò ní ọjọ́ náà. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo ènìyàn sì bẹ̀rù Olúwa àti Samuẹli púpọ̀.

And he called out Samuel to Yahweh and he gave Yahweh thunder claps and rain on the day that and it feared all the people exceedingly Yahweh and Samuel.

19 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì wí fún Samuẹli pé, “Gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kí a má ba à kú, nítorí tí àwa ti fi búburú yìí kún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa ní bíbéèrè fún ọba.”

And they said all the people to Samuel pray for servants your to Yahweh God your and may not we die for we have added to all sins our an evil thing by asking for ourselves a king.

20 Samuẹli sì dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Ẹ má bẹ̀rù, ẹ ti ṣe gbogbo búburú yìí; síbẹ̀ ẹ má ṣe yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ fi gbogbo àyà yín sin Olúwa.

And he said Samuel to the people may not you be afraid you you have done all the evil this nevertheless may not you turn aside from after Yahweh and you will serve Yahweh with all heart your.

21 Ẹ má ṣe yípadà sọ́dọ̀ àwọn òrìṣà. Wọn kò le ṣe ohun rere kan fún un yín, tàbí kí wọ́n gbà yín là, nítorí asán ni wọ́n.

And not you must turn aside for - after emptiness which not they will benefit and not they will rescue for [are] emptiness they.

22 Nítorí orúkọ ńlá rẹ̀ Olúwa kì yóò kọ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, nítorí tí inú Olúwa dùn láti fi yín ṣe ènìyàn rẹ̀.

For not he will abandon Yahweh people his for sake of name his great for he was determined Yahweh to make you for himself into a people.

23 Bí ó ṣe ti èmi ni, kí á má rí i pé èmi dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa nípa dídẹ́kun àti gbàdúrà fún un yín. Èmi yóò sì kọ́ ọ yín ní ọ̀nà rere àti ọ̀nà òtítọ́.

Also I far be it to me from sinning to Yahweh from ceasing to pray for you and I will teach you [the] way of the good and the upright.

24 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ rí i dájú pé, ẹ bẹ̀rù Olúwa, kí ẹ sì sìn ín nínú òtítọ́ pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn an yín, ẹ kíyèsi ohun ńlá tí ó ti ṣe fún un yín.

Only - fear Yahweh and you will serve him in faithfulness with all heart your for consider this: he has done great things with you.

25 Síbẹ̀ bí ẹ̀yin bá ń ṣe búburú, ẹ̀yin àti ọba yín ni a ó gbá kúrò.”

And if still you will do evil both you as well as king your you will be swept away.
