1 Samuel 15
1 Samuẹli wí fún Saulu pé, “Èmi ni Olúwa rán láti fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ Israẹli; fetísílẹ̀ láti gbọ́ iṣẹ́ tí Olúwa rán mi sí ọ́.
And Samuel said to Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint thee king over Israel: and now hear the voice of the Lord.
2 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Èmi yóò jẹ àwọn Amaleki ní yà fún ohun tí wọ́n ti ṣe sí Israẹli nígbà tí wọn dè wọn lọ́nà nígbà tí wọn ń bọ̀ láti Ejibiti.
Thus said the Lord of hosts, Now will I take vengeance for what Amalec did to Israel, when he met him in the way as he came up out of Egypt.
3 Lọ nísinsin yìí, kí o sì kọlu Amaleki, kí o sì pa gbogbo ohun tí ó bá jẹ́ tiwọn ní à parun. Má ṣe dá wọn sí, pa ọkùnrin àti obìnrin wọn, ọmọ kékeré àti ọmọ ọmú, màlúù àti àgùntàn, ìbákasẹ àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wọn.’”
And now go, and thou shalt smite Amalec and Hierim and all that belongs to him, and thou shalt not save anything of him alive, but thou shalt utterly destroy him: and thou shalt devote him and all his to [destruction], and thou shalt spare nothing belonging to him; and thou shalt slay both man and woman, and infant and suckling, and calf and sheep, and camel and ass.
4 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Saulu kó àwọn ènìyàn jọ, ó sì ka iye wọn ní Talaemu, wọ́n sì jẹ́ ogún ọ̀kẹ́ àwọn ológun ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, pẹ̀lú ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá àwọn ọkùnrin Juda.
And Saul summoned the people, and he numbered them in Galgala, four hundred thousand regular troops, and Juda thirty thousand regular troops.
5 Saulu sì lọ sí ìlú Amaleki ó sì gọ dè wọ́n ní àfonífojì kan.
And Saul came to the cities of Amalec, and laid wait in the valley.
6 Nígbà náà ni ó wí fún àwọn ará Keni pé, “Ẹ lọ, kúrò ní Amaleki kí èmi má ba à run yín pẹ̀lú wọn; nítorí ẹ̀yin fi àánú hàn fún gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli nígbà tí wọ́n gòkè ti Ejibiti wá.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn Kenaiti lọ kúrò láàrín àwọn Amaleki.
And Saul said to the Kinite, Go, and depart out of the midst of the Amalekites, lest I put thee with them; for thou dealedst mercifully with the children of Israel when they went up out of Egypt. So the Kinite departed from the midst of Amalec.
7 Nígbà náà ni Saulu kọlu àwọn Amaleki láti Hafila dé Ṣuri, tí ó fi dé ìlà-oòrùn Ejibiti.
And Saul smote Amalec from Evilat to Sur fronting Egypt.
8 Ó sì mú Agagi ọba Amaleki láààyè, ó sì fi idà rẹ̀ kọlù gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive, and he slew all the people and Hierim with the edge of the sword.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n Saulu àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ dá Agagi sí àti èyí tí ó dára jùlọ nínú àgùntàn àti màlúù àti ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn àbọ́pa àti gbogbo nǹkan tó dára. Wọ́n kò sì fẹ́ pa àwọn wọ̀nyí run pátápátá ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo nǹkan tí kò dára tí kò sì níláárí ni wọ́n parun pátápátá.
And Saul and all the people saved Agag alive, and the best of the flocks, and of the herds, and of the fruits, of the vineyards, and of all the good things; and they would not destroy them: but every worthless and refuse thing they destroyed.
10 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Samuẹli wá pé,
And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying,
11 “Èmi káàánú gidigidi pé mo fi Saulu jẹ ọba, nítorí pé ó ti yípadà kúrò lẹ́yìn mi, kò sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ mi mọ́.” Inú Samuẹli sì bàjẹ́ gidigidi, ó sì ké pe Olúwa ní gbogbo òru náà.
I have repented that I have made Saul to be king: for he has turned back from following me, and has not kept my word. And Samuel was grieved, and cried to the Lord all night.
12 Ní òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù Samuẹli sì dìde láti lọ pàdé Saulu, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n sọ fún un pé, “Saulu ti wá sí Karmeli. Ó ti kọ́ ibìkan fún ara rẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó sì ti yípadà, ó sì ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Gilgali.”
And Samuel rose early and went to meet Israel in the morning, and it was told Saul, saying, Samuel has come to Carmel, and he has raised up help for himself: and he turned his chariot, and came down to Galgala to Saul; and, behold, he was offering up a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord, the chief of the spoils which he brought out of Amalec.
13 Nígbà tí Samuẹli sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, Saulu sì wí fún un pé, “Olúwa bùkún fún ọ, mo ti ṣe ohun tí Olúwa pàṣẹ.”
And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said to him, Blessed [art] thou of the Lord: I have performed all that the Lord said.
14 Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí pé, “Èwo wá ni igbe àgùntàn tí mo ń gbọ́ ní etí mi? Kí ni igbe màlúù ti mo ń gbọ́ yìí?”
And Samuel said, What then [is] the bleating of this flock in my ears, and the sound of the oxen which I hear?
15 Saulu sì dáhùn pé, “Àwọn ọmọ-ogun ní o mú wọn láti Amaleki wá, wọ́n dá àwọn àgùntàn, àti màlúù tí ó dára jùlọ sí láti fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n a pa àwọn tókù run pátápátá.”
And Saul said, I have brought them out of Amalec, that which the people preserved, even the best of the sheep, and of the cattle, that it might be sacrificed to the Lord thy God, and the rest have I utterly destroyed.
16 Samuẹli sí wí fún Saulu pé, “Dákẹ́ ná, jẹ́ kí èmi kí ó sọ ohun tí Olúwa wí fún mi ní alẹ́ àná fún ọ.” Saulu sì wí pé, “Sọ fún mi.”
And Samuel said to Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord has said to me this night: and he said to him, Say on.
17 Samuẹli sì wí pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ìwọ fi ìgbà kan kéré lójú ara rẹ, ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò ha di olórí ẹ̀yà Israẹli? Olúwa fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli.
And Samuel said to Saul, Art thou not little in his eyes, [though] a leader of one of the tribes of Israel? and [yet] the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel.
18 Olúwa sì rán ọ níṣẹ́ wí pé, ‘Lọ, kí o sì pa àwọn ènìyàn búburú ará Amaleki run pátápátá; gbóguntì wọ́n títí ìwọ yóò fi run wọ́n.’
And the Lord sent thee on a journey, and said to thee, Go, and utterly destroy: thou shalt slay the sinners against me, [even] the Amalekites; and thou shalt war against them until thou have consumed them.
19 Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò fi gbọ́ ti Olúwa? Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi sáré sí ìkógun tí o sì ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa?”
And why didst not thou hearken to the voice of the Lord, but didst haste to fasten upon the spoils, and didst that which was evil in the sight of the Lord?
20 Saulu sì wí fún Samuẹli pé, “Ṣùgbọ́n èmi ti ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí Olúwa, èmi sì ti lọ ní ọ̀nà tí Olúwa rán mi. Mo sì ti pa àwọn ará Amaleki run pátápátá, mo sì ti mú Agagi ọba wọn padà wá.
And Saul said to Samuel, Because I listened to the voice of the people: yet I went the way by which the Lord sent me, and I brought Agag the king of Amalec, and I destroyed Amalec.
21 Àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti mú àgùntàn àti màlúù lára ìkógun èyí tí ó dára láti fi fún Olúwa láti fi rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ní Gilgali.”
But the people took of the spoils the best flocks and herds [out] of that which was destroyed, to sacrifice before the Lord our God in Galgal.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli dáhùn pé, “Olúwa ha ní inú dídùn sí ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ju kí a gba ohùn Olúwa gbọ́? Ìgbọ́ràn sàn ju ẹbọ lọ, ìfetísílẹ̀ sì sàn ju ọ̀rá àgbò lọ.
And Samuel said, Does the Lord take pleasure in whole-burnt-offerings and sacrifices, as in hearing the words of the Lord? behold, obedience [is] better than a good sacrifice, and hearkening than the fat of rams.
23 Nítorí pé ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ dàbí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àfọ̀ṣẹ, àti ìgbéraga bí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ìbọ̀rìṣà. Nítorí tí ìwọ ti kọ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, Òun sì ti kọ̀ ọ́ ní ọba.”
For sin is [as] divination; idols bring on pain and grief. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord also shall reject thee from being king over Israel.
24 Nígbà náà ni Saulu wí fún Samuẹli pé, “Èmi ti ṣẹ̀. Mo ti rú òfin Olúwa àti ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀. Èmi sì bẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi sì gba ohùn wọn gbọ́.
And Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned, in that I have transgressed the word of the Lord and thy direction; for I feared the people, and I hearkened to their voice.
25 Mo bẹ̀ ọ́ nísinsin yìí, dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi jì, kí ó sì yípadà pẹ̀lú mi, kí èmi kí ó lè sin Olúwa.”
And now remove, I pray thee, my sin, and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord thy God.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí fún un pé, “Èmi kò ní bá ọ padà. Ìwọ ti kọ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sílẹ̀, Olúwa sì ti kọ̀ ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli!”
And Samuel said to Saul, I will not turn back with thee, for thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord will reject thee from being king over Israel.
27 Bí Samuẹli sì ti fẹ́ yípadà láti lọ, Saulu sì di ẹ̀wù ìlekè rẹ̀ mú, ó sì fàya;
And Samuel turned his face to depart, and Saul caught hold of the skirt of his garment, and tore it.
28 Samuẹli sì wí fún un pé, “Olúwa ti fa ìjọba Israẹli ya kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọ̀ rẹ lónìí, ó sì ti fi fún aládùúgbò rẹ kan tí ó sàn jù ọ́ lọ.
And Samuel said to him, The Lord has rent thy kingdom from Israel out of thy hand this day, and will give it to thy neighbour who is better than thou.
29 Ẹni tí ó ń ṣe ògo Israẹli, kì í purọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà; nítorí kì í ṣe ènìyàn tí yóò yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà.”
And Israel shall be divided to two: and [God] will not turn nor repent, for he is not as a man to repent.
30 Saulu sì wí pé, “Èmi ti ṣẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n jọ̀wọ́ bu ọlá fún mi níwájú àwọn àgbàgbà ènìyàn mi, àti níwájú u Israẹli, yípadà pẹ̀lú mi, kí èmi kí ó lè tẹríba fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ.”
And Saul said, I have sinned; yet honour me, I pray thee, before the elders of Israel, and before my people; and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord thy God.
31 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Samuẹli sì yípadà pẹ̀lú Saulu, Saulu sì sin Olúwa.
So Samuel turned back after Saul, and he worshipped the Lord.
32 Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli wí pé, “Mú Agagi ọba àwọn ará Amaleki wá fún mi.” Agagi sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá ní ìgboyà pẹ̀lú èrò pé, “Nítòótọ́ ìkorò ikú ti kọjá.”
And Samuel said, Bring me Agag the king of Amalec: and Agag came to him trembling; and Agag said Is death thus bitter?
33 Ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli wí pé, “Bí idà rẹ ti sọ àwọn obìnrin di aláìní ọmọ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìyá rẹ yóò sì di aláìní ọmọ láàrín obìnrin.” Samuẹli sì pa Agagi níwájú Olúwa ni Gilgali.
And Samuel said to Agag, As thy sword has bereaved women of their children, so shall thy mother be made childless among women: and Samuel slew Agag before the Lord in Galgal.
34 Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli lọ sí Rama, Saulu sì gòkè lọ sí ilé e rẹ̀ ní Gibeah tí Saulu.
And Samuel departed to Armathaim, and Saul went up to his house at Gabaa.
35 Samuẹli kò sì padà wá mọ́ láti wo Saulu títí ó fi di ọjọ́ ikú u rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli káàánú fún Saulu. Ó sì dun Olúwa pé ó fi Saulu jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli.
And Samuel did not see Saul again till the day of his death, for Samuel mourned after Saul, and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
