Nywol mar Samuel
Ne nitie ngʼat moro mane odak Ramathaim Zuf e piny gode mag Efraim. Ngʼatno ne nyinge Elkana wuod Jeroham ma wuod Elihu wuod Tohu, wuod Zuf ma ja-Efraim. Ne en gi mon ariyo ma moro ne nyinge Hana to machielo nyinge Penina. Penina ne nigi nyithindo to Hana ne ongego.
Higa ka higa ngʼatni ne wuok e dalane kodhi lemo kendo timo misango ne Jehova Nyasaye Maratego e Shilo, kuma Hofni gi Finehas, yawuot Eli ariyo, ne jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye. Kane odiechiengʼ ochopo ma Elkana chiwoe misango, ne omiyo Penina gi yawuote kod nyige lemo mar ringʼo. Hana to nomiyo nyadiriyo nikech nohere, kendo Jehova Nyasaye noloro iye mane ok onyal nywol. Kendo nikech Jehova Nyasaye noloro iye mane ok onyal nywol, nyieke ne osiko mana kajare mondo owangʼ iye. Ajarano ne dhi nyime higa ka higa, to moloyo, e kinde ka kinde mane Hana dhi e od Jehova Nyasaye. E kindego nyieke ne osiko kawangʼo iye gi wechego manyaka oywagi ma ok onyal kata chiemo. Elkana jaode ne jawachone niya, “Hana, angʼo momiyo iywak? Angʼo momoni chiemo? Angʼo momiyo chunyi osin? Donge onego aloni yawuowi apar?”
Chiengʼ moro kane gisetieko chiemo kod metho kane gin Shilo, Hana nochungʼ malo. Sano noyudo ka Eli ma jadolo obet e kom but dhood hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Nikech Hana ne nigi chuny malit noywak ahinya kolamo Jehova Nyasaye. Kendo nokwongʼore kowacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ka inine masich jatichni kendo ipara ma wiyi ok owil gi jatichni ma imiye wuowi, eka anachiwe ne Jehova Nyasaye e ndalo duto mar ngimane, kendo wembe ok nolielgo wiye.”
Kaka nomedo lamo Jehova Nyasaye, Eli ne ngʼiye ka nono dhoge. Hana to ne lemo gie chunye to dhoge to ne diemore adiema to dwonde to ok winji. Eli noparo ni omer mi nowachone niya, “Nyaka karangʼo mibiro siko kimer?” We metho.
Hana ne odwoke niya, Ok kamano ruodha. An mana dhako man-gi lit ahinya. Ok asebedo kamadho kongʼo kata gik mamero ji, to achiwo chunya ne Jehova Nyasaye. Kik ikaw jatichni ka dhako ma timbege mono. Asebedo kalamo ka nikech chandruok gi kuyona.
Eli nodwoke kawachone niya, “Dhi gi kwe, mad Nyasach Israel miyi gima isebedo kikwaye.”
Hana nowacho niya, “Mad jatichni yud ngʼwono e wangʼi.” Eka nodhi e yore owuon mochamo gimoro, kendo wangʼe ne koro onge kuyo.
Kinyne gokinyi negichungʼ mine gilemo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye eka negidok dalagi Rama. Elkana nobedo e achiel gi chiege ma Hana eka Jehova Nyasaye nopare. E kindeno Hana nomako ich monywolo wuode. Nochake ni Samuel kowacho niya, “Nikech ne akwaye Jehova Nyasaye.”
Hana osingo ni Nyasaye Samuel
Kane Elkana gi jaode jodhi timo misango mar higa ka higa ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo chopo singruokne, Hana ne ok odhi. Ne owacho ne chwore niya, “Ka nyathi ma wuowi oseweyo dhoth to abiro tere e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kendo obiro dak kuno nyaka chiengʼ.”
Elkana chwore ne owachone niya, “Tim kaka ineno ni berni. Rit nyaka nyathi we dhoth kendo mad Jehova Nyasaye kende ema chop wachne.” Omiyo dhakoni nobet dala kodhodho wuode nyaka noweyo dhodhe.
Bangʼ kane nyathi oseweyo dhoth nokawo wuowi modhi kode kata obedo ni pod otin kamano, nodhi gi nyarwath ma hike adek gi mogo madirom depe ariyo gi divai lita piero ariyo gariyo, eka nokele e od Jehova Nyasaye man Shilo. Kane giseyangʼo rwath ne gitero wuowino ir Eli. Eka nowachone niya, “Yaye ruodha, akwongʼora e nyimi ni an e dhako mane ochungʼ buti cha kalamo Jehova Nyasaye. Ne alamo kakwayo nyathini kendo Jehova Nyasaye osedwoka kendo omiya gima ne akwaye. Omiyo sani achiwe ne Jehova Nyasaye. Kuom ngimane duto asechiwe ne Jehova Nyasaye.” Kendo Eli nopako Jehova Nyasaye kanyo.
Lamo mar Hana
Eka Hana nolemo kawacho niya,
“Chunya oil gi Jehova Nyasaye;
Jehova Nyasaye osetingʼa malo ma tekona onenore.
Gi dhoga asungora ne wasika,
nikech amor gi warruokni.
“Onge ngʼama ler ka Jehova Nyasaye;
kendo onge moro makmana in;

“Weuru siko ka uwuoyo gi sunga ahinya,

“Atunge mag jolweny osetur,

Mano mane migumba osenywolo nyithindo abiriyo

“Jehova Nyasaye ema kelo tho, kendo chiwo ngima;
en ema onego kendo ochiero.
Jehova Nyasaye ema kelo dhier gi mwandu,
josunga odwoko piny, to joma muol otingʼo malo.
Otingʼo jachan malo kogolo e buru
kendo otingʼo ngʼama odhier malo kogolo e ipidh yugi;
omiyo gibedo kaachiel gi yawuot ruodhi bende
omiyo gibedoe kombe moyiedhi.
“Nimar mise mag piny gin mag Jehova Nyasaye,
kanyo ema oserenjoe piny ngima.
Obiro chiko tiende joge maler
to joricho to nolal ei mudho.
“Ngʼato ok lochi mana nikech teko;
joma piem gi Jehova Nyasaye ibiro tur matindo tindo.
Obiro mornegi gie polo;
kendo Jehova Nyasaye biro ngʼado bura ne tunge piny.
“Obiro miyo ruodhe teko
kendo obiro miyo teko mar ngʼate mowir onenre.”
Eka Elkana nodok dalane Rama to wuowino noweyo katiyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e bwo Eli jadolo.
Yawuot Eli macheje
Yawuot Eli ne timbegi mono kendo ne ok gidew Jehova Nyasaye. Koro ma e tim mane jodolo timo ne ji kane ngʼato angʼata ne chiwo misango, kendo kane pod ringʼo chiek, to jatij jadolo ne biroga gi uma mabor man-gi leke adek e lwete. Nolutoga umano e sufuria, kata aguch ringʼo gi agulni mamoko mag tedo kendo jadolo ne kawo ringʼo moro amora ma uma ochwoyo. Mano e kaka negitimo ni jo-Israel duto mane biro Shilo. To kata ka boche ne pok owangʼ, jatich jadolo ne biroga ma wach ne ngʼama chiwo misango niya, “Mi jadolo ringʼo moko mondo obul nikech ok obi yie kawo ringʼo mosetedi kuomi makmana manumu.”
To ka ngʼatno nowachone niya, “We mondo boche okuong owangʼ mondi eka ikaw gimoro amora midwaro,” to jatijno nedwoko niya, “Ngangʼ miyago sani; ka ok imiyago, to abiro kawe githuon.”
Richo mag yawuowigi ne lich ahinya e nyim Jehova Nyasaye nikech ne gichayo gima ochiw ne Jehova Nyasaye.
Samuel to ne tiyo, e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka en wuowi matin korwako law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod. Higa ka higa min ne twangʼone law matin kendo terone e kinde mane ojadhi gi chwore ka gidhi timo misango mar higa ka higa. Eli negwedho Elkana gi chiege kowacho niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye miyi nyithindo gi dhakoni mondo ochul kar mane olamo kokwayo kendo omiyo Jehova Nyasaye.” Bangʼe negidok dalagi. To Jehova Nyasaye ne mor gi Hana; kendo nomako ich monywolo yawuowi adek gi nyiri ariyo. To Samuel nodongo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
Koro Eli mane oseti ahinya; nowinjo timbe duto mane yawuote timo ne jo-Israel kaka negiterore gi mon mane tiyo e dhoranga Hemb Romo. Nowachonegi niya, “Angʼo momiyo utimo timbegi? Awinjo kuom ji duto timbeu marichogi. Ooyo yawuota; ok en huma maber ma awinjo kalandore e kind oganda Jehova Nyasaye. Ka ngʼato okethone ngʼat machielo to Nyasaye nyalo thegogi; to ka koro ngʼato oketho ne Jehova Nyasaye, en ngʼa mabiro kwayone?” Kata kamano yawuotego ne ok owinjo siem wuon-gi nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne osechano mondo oneg-gi.
To wuowi Samuel nomedo dongo; kendo Jehova Nyasaye kod ji ne mor kode.
Wach mokor makwedo od Eli
Ngʼat Nyasaye moro nobiro ir Eli mowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, ‘Donge ne afwenyora ratiro ni od wuonu kane pod gin Misri e bwo loch Farao? Nayiero wuonu e kind dhout Israel mondo obed jadolona mondo oidh malo e kendona mar misango, mondo owangʼ ubani, kendo orwak law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod e nyima. Ne achako amiyo od wuonu misengini duto ma jo-Israel wangʼo gi mach. Angʼo momiyo ichayo misangona kod chiwo ma asechiwoni kar dakna? Angʼo momiyo imiyo yawuoti duongʼ moloya ka uchiemo kendo ubedo machwe un uwegi kendo ka uyiero kuonde mabeyoe moloyo kuom chiwo ka chiwo ma joga Israel chiwo?’
“Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho ni, ‘Ne asingora ni odi kod od wuonu nobed jotichna nyaka chiengʼ.’ To koro Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ma ok anatim! Joma miya duongʼ ema abiro miyo duongʼ, to joma ochaya ok nobed gimoro. Ndalo biro ma anatiekie tekoni kod teko mar od wuonu, mi ok noyudi ngʼato angʼata moti e dhoodu. Kendo inibed gi chandruok e kar dakna kata obedo ni jo-Israel none ber to ei anywolani to onge ngʼat manodag amingʼa mabed moti.

“ ‘To gima timore ne yawuoti ariyo ma gin Hofni gi Finehas nobedni ranyisi kendo gibiro tho odiechiengʼ achiel.

To jogo mane dongʼ e dhoodi nobi ire kakulore e nyime mondo omi fedha gi kuon kendo nokwaye niya, “Yie imiya tich dolo moro mondo ayud kaka dayud chiemo machamo.” ’ ”
Jehova Nyasaye oluongo Samuel
Wuowino miluongo ni Samuel ne tiyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye e bwo Eli. E kindeno wach Jehova Nyasaye ne nok kendo ne onge fweny mangʼeny.
Eli makoro wengene ne osechako imore kendo ne ok onyal neno maber, noyudo nindo e kare mapile. To taya mar Nyasaye ne pok otho, Samuel bende ne nindo ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kama Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne nitie. Eka Jehova Nyasaye noluongo Samuel.
Samuel nodwoko niya, “Era ee.” Eka noringo odhi ir Eli mowacho niya, “Era ee; nikech ne iluonga.”
To Eli nowachone niya, “Ne ok aluongi dog inindi.” Omiyo nodok monindo.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nochako oluongo niya, “Samuel!” Eka Samuel nochungʼ modhi ir Eli mowachone niya, “Era ee, nikech ne iluonga.”
Eli nowachone niya, “Wuoda, an ne ok aluongi dog inindi.”
E kindeno Samuel ne pod ok ongʼeyo Jehova Nyasaye nikech wach Jehova Nyasaye ne pok ofwenyorene.
Jehova Nyasaye ne ochako oluongo Samuel mar adek kendo Samuel noa malo modhi ir Eli mowachone niya, “Era ee nikech iluonga.”
Eka Eli nofwenyo ni kara Jehova Nyasaye ema, luongo wuowino. Omiyo Eli nowacho ni Samuel niya, “Dhiyo inindi, to ka oluongi to iwach ni, ‘Wuo Jehova Nyasaye, nikech jatichni winjo.’ ” Samuel ne odok monindo kare.
Jehova Nyasaye nobiro mochungʼ kanyo moluongo kaka nosebedo kotimo, “Samuel! Samuel!”
Samuel nowachone niya, “Wuo nikech jatichni winjo.”
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Samuel niya, “Ne adhi timo gimoro e Israel mabiro miyo ji duto mowinjo itgi nosakni. E kindeno abiro chopo weche mane awacho kuom Eli ka akwede kod mane awacho kuom ode aa chakruok nyaka giko. Nimar ne anyise ni abiro ngʼado bura ne joode nyaka chiengʼ nikech richono mane ongʼeyo, yawuote ne timo timbe maricho, to ne ok okwerogi. Emomiyo nasingora ne dhood Eli ni, ‘Richogi ok nyal pwodh gi misango kata chiwo.’ ”
Samuel nonindo nyaka okinyi eka noyawo dhoudi mag od Jehova Nyasaye. Noluor wacho ne Eli fweny, to Eli noluonge mowachone niya, “Samuel wuoda.”
Samuel nodwoke niya, “Era ee.”
Eli nopenje niya, “En angʼo mane owachoni? Kik ipanda wach. Mad Nyasaye chwadi matek ka dipo ni ipandona gimoro amora ma onyisi.” Omiyo Samuel nonyise weche duto ma ok opandone gimoro. Eka Eli nowachone niya, “En e Jehova Nyasaye, we otim gima oneno ni longʼone.”
Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Samuel kaka nomedo dongo kendo weche duto mane owacho onge mane kadho ma ok otimore kamano. Jo-Israel duto koa Dan nyaka Bersheba, nofwenyo ni Samuel oseromo bedo janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye. Jehova Nyasaye nomedo fwenyore e Shilo kendo kanyo ne ofwenyore owuon ne Samuel kuom wachne.
Kendo wach Samuel nochopo ne jo-Israel duto.
Jo-Filistia okawo Sandug Muma
Noyudo jo-Israel odhi kedo gi jo-Filistia. Jo-Israel ne ogo kambi Ebeneza to jo-Filistia to nogo kambi Afek. Jo-Filistia noyaro ne lweny mondo orom gi jo-Israel, kendo lweny nolandore. Jo-Israel ne olo gi jo-Filistia mine ginego ji madirom alufu angʼwen e paw lweny. Kane jolweny odwogo e kambi, jodong Israel nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo Jehova Nyasaye oseweyo jo-Filistia oloyowa kawuononi? Waomuru Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye man Shilo, mondo odhi kodwa kendo oreswa e lwet wasikwa.”
Eka oganda nooro jomoko mondo odhi Shilo kendo negidwogo gi Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, mobedo e kind kerubi. Kendo yawuot Eli ariyo ma gin Hofni gi Finehas nobiro gi Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Nyasaye.
Kane Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye ochopo e kambi, jo-Israel duto nokok matek ma piny noyiengni. Jo-Filistia kane owinjo koko negipenjo niya, “Mano to koko manade magore e kambi mar jo-Hibrania?”
Kane gifwenyo ni Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye osekel e kambi, jo-Filistia nobedo maluor kagiwacho niya, “Nyasaye osebiro e kambi. Wan gi chandruok! Gima kama pok otimore nyaka nene. To mano kaka wan gi masira! En ngʼa mabiro resowa e lwet nyiseche maratekegi? Gin nyiseche mane ogoyo jo-Misri gi masiche mayoreyore e thim. Beduru motegno un jo-Filistia! Beduru gi chir kaka chwo ka ok kamano to udhi bedo wasumb jo-Hibrania mana kaka gisebedonu. Omiyo beduru jochir kendo ukedi!”
Omiyo jo-Filistia nokedo kendo, jo-Israel nolo mi ngʼato ka ngʼato noringo kadhi e hembe. Noneg ji mathoth ahinya! Noneg jolweny mag jo-Israel alufu piero adek. Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne okaw, yawuot Eli ariyo Hofni gi Finehas ne onegi.
Tho mar Eli
Chiengʼ onogo ja-Benjamin moro noringo koa e lweny modhi Shilo, lepe ne oyiech kendo wiye notimo buru. Kane ochopo, nonwangʼo Eli kobet e kome e dir yo, ka orito nimar luoro nomake nikech Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye. Kane ngʼatno odonjo e dala mowacho gima ne osetimore, ji duto mane ni ei dala nomuoch gi nduru.
Eli nowinjo nduru mopenjo niya, “Nduru magoreni nyiso angʼo?”
Ngʼatno noreto piyo kodhi ir Eli ma hike ne oseromo higni piero ochiko gaboro kendo wengene nosedinore makoro ok onen. Nowachone Eli niya, “Aringo ka awuok kar lweny mana kawuononi.”
Eli nopenjo niya, “Angʼo motimore wuoda?”
Ngʼat mane okelo wach nodwoko niya, “Israel nolo gi jo-Filistia, kendo jolweny otho mangʼeny. Koda ka yawuoti ariyo, Hofni gi Finehas osetho, to Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye okaw modhi.”
Kane ohulo wach mar Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye, Eli nogore piny ataro koa e kom manobetie e bath rangach. Ngʼute ne otur mi notho, nikech ne oti kendo ne ochwe. Ne osetelo ne Israel kuom higni piero angʼwen.
Chi wuode, ma jaod Finehas, ne nigi ich mochiegni nywol. To kane owinjo wach ni Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye osekaw kendo ni kwar mare gi chwore osetho, muoch nochako kaye mi nonywol, kata kamano nywolne nobiro marach. Kane odwa tho, mon mane chole nowachone niya, “Kik iluor nikech isenywolo wuowi.” To ne ok odwokogi kata dewogi.
Nochako nyathi ma wuowino ni Ikabod kowacho niya, “Duongʼ oseweyo Israel, nikech negikawo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye kod tho mar kwar mare gi mar chwore.” Nowacho niya, “Duongʼ oseweyo Israel, nimar Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye osekaw.”
Sandug Muma ni Ashdod gi Ekron
Kane jo-Filistia osekawo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne gigole Ebeneza mi gitere Ashdod. Eka negitingʼo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye mi gitero ei hekalu mar Dagon kendo negikete bath Dagon. Kane jo-Ashdod ochiewo kinyne gokinyi mangʼich negiyudo ka Dagon, nogore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye! Negichungo Dagon mi gidwoke kare. To chiengʼ mar ariyo gokinyi kane gichiewo, negiyudo Dagon kanyo kosegore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Wiye gi lwetene ne osetur kendo ne ni e ndiri, dende kende ema ne odongʼ. Mano ema omiyo nyaka chil kawuono jodolo mag Dagon kata mana ngʼama donjo e hekalu mar Dagon e Ashdod ok nyon ndiri.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye nosando jo-Ashdod kod kuonde machiegni kodgi, noketo luoro kuomgi, bende nogoyogi gi tuo mar buche. Kane jo-Ashdod oneno gima ne timore, negiwacho niya, “Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kik bed kodwa ka, nikech lwete osesandowa kaachiel gi Dagon ma nyasachwa.” Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia ma gipenjogi niya, “Watim angʼo gi Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel?”
Mine gidwoko niya, “Kawuru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel uter Gath.” Kamano negigolo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel.
Bangʼ kane gisegole, Jehova Nyasaye nokelo chandruok ne dala maduongʼno momiyo luoro malich omakogi. Ne ogoyo jomatindo gi jomadongo mar dala maduongʼno gi tuo buche. Omiyo ne gitero Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye Ekron.
Kane Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye nidonjogo Ekron, jo-Ekron noywak kawacho niya, “Gisekelo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kuomwa mondo onegwa kaachiel gi jowa.” Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia mi giwachonegi niya, “Goluru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel; dwokeuru kare owuon, ka ok kamano to obiro negowa kaachiel gi jowa.” Nikech tho nosepongʼo dala maduongʼ gi kihondko; lwet Nyasaye nosandogi ahinya. Joma ne ok otho to tuo buche nomako kendo ywak mar dala maduongʼno nochopo nyaka e polo.
Sandug Muma odwok Israel
Kane Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye osebet e piny jo-Filistia kuom dweche abiriyo, jo-Filistia noluongo jodolo gi ajuoke mi giwacho niya, “Wabiro timo angʼo gi Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye? Nyiswauru kaka onego wadwoke kare.”
Negidwoko niya, “Ka udwoko Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel, to kik udwoke nono, nyaka une ni udwoke gi misango mar pwodhruok e ketho, eka nochangu, bende ubiro ngʼeyo gima omiyo lwete ok oseweyo sandou.”
Jo-Filistia nopenjo niya, “En misango machal nade mar pwodhruok e ketho monego wakowne?”
Negidwoko niya, “Dhahabu abich molos machal gi buche gi dhahabu abich molos machal gi oyieyo ma kwan-gi rom gi ruodhi mag jo-Filistia, nikech masich tuo nomakou kaachiel gi ruodhiu. Losuru gik machal gi buche kod machal gi oyieyo maketho pinyu, kendo miuru Nyasach jo-Israel duongʼ. Dipo ka ongʼwononu moweyo sandou kaachiel gi nyisecheu gi pinyu. Angʼo momiyo chunyu pek kaka jo-Misri gi Farao notimo? Kane osandogi, donge negiweyo jo-Israel odhi kuma ne onego gidhiye?
“Omiyo sani ikuru gari manyien, gi dwesni ariyo ma osenywol to pok otwe e jok. Tweuru dwesnigi e gari, nyiroye to tweuru e loch. Kawuru Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye mondo uket e gari, keturu Sanduku machielo bute mondo uketie gik molos gi dhahabu muterone kaka misango mipwodhruokgo e ketho, kendo uweye odhi, to sikuru ka ungʼiye. Ka odhi mochomo thurgi nyaka, Beth Shemesh, to kara Jehova Nyasaye ema osekelo sand maduongʼni kuomwa. To ka ok otimore kamano to wabiro ngʼeyo ni lwete ok ema osesandowa to ni mani obironwa abira.”
Omiyo negitimo kamano. Negikawo dwesni ariyo machal kamano mi gitweyo e gari kendo gitweyo nyiroye e loch. Negiketo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye e gari bende negiketo Sanduku motingʼo dhahabu molos ka oyieyo gi dhahabu molos ka buche. To dwesni nowuok kochiko Beth Shemesh tir, negiluwo yo ka gidhi to giywak, ne ok gibaro korachwich kata koracham. Ruodhi mag jo-Filistia ne luwogi nyaka negichopo e tongʼ man Beth Shemesh.
E kindeno jo-Beth Shemesh ne kayo ngano e holo, kane gitingʼo wangʼ-gi malo mi gineno Sandug Muma, negimor ka ginene. Gari nobiro nyaka e puoth Joshua ma ja-Beth Shemesh, modhi mochungʼ but lwanda maduongʼ. Ji nobaro yiend gari mi gichiwo dwesnigo ka misango miwangʼo pep ne Jehova Nyasaye. Jo-Lawi noloro Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye kaachiel gi Sanduku manotingʼo gik molos gi dhahabu, mine giketogi ewi lwanda maduongʼ. Odiechiengʼno jo-Beth Shemesh nochiwo misango miwangʼo pep gi misengini mamoko ni Jehova Nyasaye. Ruodhi abich mag jo-Filistia noneno gik manotimore duto mine gidok odiechiengno nyaka Ekron.
Magi e dhahabu molos ka buche mane jo-Filistia oorone Jehova Nyasaye ka misango mipwodhruokgo e ketho ka moro ka moro ochungʼ kar Ashdod, Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath kod Ekron. To kwan mar dhahabu molos ka oyieyo ne chal gi kwan dalane mag jo-Filistia mag Ruodhi abich, ne gin mier matindo mochiel motegno man-gi mieregi. Lwanda maduongʼ, mane giketoe Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye, pod ochungʼ kanyo ka ranyisi e puoth Joshua ja-Beth Shemesh nyaka chil kawuono.
To Nyasaye nogoyo jo-Beth Shemesh moko, monego ji piero abiriyo nikech negingʼiyo ii Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ji noywak malit nikech sand mane Jehova Nyasaye osekelonegi, kendo jo-Beth Shemesh nopenjo niya, “En ngʼa manyalo chungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasaye malerni? Ngʼatno ma Sandugni nodhine koa ka?”
Eka negioro joote ne jo-Kiriath Jearim, kagiwacho niya, “Jo-Filistia osedwogo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Biuru mondo ukawe udhi kode.”
Jo-Kiriath Jearim nobiro mokawo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ne gitere e od Abinadab mane ni e got, kendo negiwalo Eliazar ma wuode mondo orit Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Samuel oloyo jo-Filistia Mizpa
Sandug Muma nobudho Kiriath Jearim kuom higni piero ariyo, jo-Israel duto nokuyo mi odok ir Jehova Nyasaye. Kendo Samuel nowachone jo-Israel duto niya, “Ka udwogo ir Jehova Nyasaye gi chunyu duto, to goluru nyiseche mag jopinje mamoko ma un-go kod mag Ashtoreth, to chiwreuru ni Jehova Nyasaye kendo en kende ema utine, mi noresu kogolou e lwet jo-Filistia.” Omiyo jo-Israel nogolo mowito nyisechegi mag Baal gi mag Ashtoreth; mine gitiyo ne Jehova Nyasaye kende.
Eka Samuel nowacho niya, “Chokuru jo-Israel duto Mizpa, anto abiro lemo ka akwayonu Jehova Nyasaye.” Kane gisechokore kanyakla Mizpa ne giumbo pi mi gipuko e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Odiechiengno negitweyo chiemo ka gihulo richo kagiwacho niya, “Waseketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.” Kendo Samuel nobedo jatend Israel e piny Mizpa.
Kane jo-Filistia owinjo ni jo-Israel nosechokore Mizpa, ruodhi mag jo-Filistia nobiro mondo omonjgi. To kane jo-Israel owinjo wachno, luoro nomakogi. Negiwachone Samuel niya, “Kik iwe ma ok ikwayonwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa mondo omi oreswa e lwet jo-Filistia.” Eka Samuel nokawo nyarombo ma pod dhoth mi ochiwo ka misango miwangʼo pep ni Jehova Nyasaye. Noywak ni Jehova Nyasaye e lo jo-Israel, mi Jehova Nyasaye ne odwoke.
Kane Samuel pod chiwo misango miwangʼo pep, jo-Filistia noyworo machiegni mondo oked gi jo-Israel. To chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo polo omor matek kuom jo-Filistia manomiyogi luoro ma gikee ka gikia kuma gidhiye, kendo negiringo e nyim jo-Israel. Jo-Israel nowuok Mizpa molawo jo-Filistia ma ginegogi e yo nyaka Beth-Kar.
Eka Samuel nokawo kidi mochungo e kind Mizpa gi Shen. Nochake ni Ebeneza kowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osekonyowa nyaka ka.” Omiyo jo-Filistia nolo mine ok gichako gimonjo piny jo-Israel kendo.
E kinde duto mane Samuel pod ngima, lwet Jehova Nyasaye nosando jo-Filistia. Mier mane jo-Filistia omayo jo-Israel kochakore Ekron nyaka Gath nodwoknegi, Israel noreso gwenge mane okiewo kode koa e loch jo-Filistia. Kendo kwe nobedo e kind Israel gi jo-Amor.
Samuel nobedo jangʼad bura e piny Israel e ndalo duto mag ngimane. Higa ka higa nolworore koa Bethel nyaka Gilgal gi Mizpa kongʼado bura ne jo-Israel kuonde duto.

Jo-Israel okwayo mondo omigi Ruoth
Kane Samuel oseti noketo yawuote mondo obed jongʼad bura e Israel. Nying wuode makayo ne Joel to nying wuowi mar ariyo ne Abija, kendo negitiyo e Bersheba. To yawuotego ne ok oluwo timbene. Ne gibaro kuom dwaro mwandu malangʼ kendo ka gikawo asoya bende ka gingʼado bura marach.
Omiyo jodong Israel noromo kamoro achiel mine gidhi ir Samuel Rama. Negiwachone niya, “In koro iseti kendo yawuoti bende ok luw timbeni; omiyo koro yiernwa ruoth mondo otelnwa, machal gi mag ogendini mamoko mondo otelnwa.”
To kane gikwayo niya, “Miwa ruoth mondo otelnwa,” kwayoni ok ne omoro Samuel, omiyo nolamo Jehova Nyasaye. To Jehova Nyasaye ne owachone niya, “Chik iti ne weche duto ma ji wachoni; nikech ok in ema gikwedi, to An ema gisekweda kaka ruodhgi. Mana kaka gisebedo ka gitimo chakre ndalo mane agologi e piny Misri nyaka koroni, kagiweya kendo gitiyo ni nyiseche mamoko, ema koro in bende gitimoni. Koro winj gima giwacho; makmana isiemgi matek, kendo mondo inyisgi mondo gingʼe gik ma ruoth mabiro ritogi biro timo.”
Samuel nonyiso joma ne kwaye mondo omigi ruoth weche duto mag Jehova Nyasaye. Nowacho niya, “Ma e gima ruoth mabiro ritou notim: Nokaw yawuotu mi noketgi mondo giti e gechene gi faresene, kendo giniringi e nyim gechene. Moko to enoket jotelo mag lweny marito ji alufe alufe to moko motelo ni piero abich abich, moko nopur puothene gi dhok kendo kayo chambe, to bende moko noket mondo olos gige mag lweny to gi gik milosogo gechene.

To ji nodagi winjo Samuel mi negiwacho niya, “Ngangʼ! Wan to wadwaro ruoth mondo oritwa. Mondo wan bende wabed machal gi ogendini mamoko, ka wan gi ruoth matelo nyimwa ka wadhi e lweny.”
Kane Samuel owinjo weche duto mane ji owacho, ne onyiso Jehova Nyasaye wechego mana kaka ne gikwayo. Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Winj gima giwachoni kendo imigi ruoth.”
Eka Samuel nowachone jo-Israel niya, “Koro ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e miechgi.”
Samuel owiro Saulo mondo obed Ruoth
Ne nitie ja-Benjamin moro mongʼere ma nyinge Kish wuod Abiel, ma wuod Zeror, ma wuod Bekorath, ma wuod Afia ma ja-Benjamin. Ne en gi wuowi miluongo ni Saulo, ne en rawera ma jaber e kind jo-Israel bende ne en rabora ma ji moko ne rem mana e goke.
Chiengʼ moro punde mag Kish wuon Saulo nolal kendo Kish nowachone wuode ma Saulo niya, “Kaw achiel kuom jotich mondo udhigo udwar punde.” Omiyo nokadho e piny got mar Efraim kod alwora mar Shalisha, to ok ne giyudogi. Negidhiyo ma gichopo e gwenge mag Shaalim, to punde ne onge kuondego. Eka nokadho e piny Benjamin, to ne ok giyudogi.
Kane gichopo e gwenge mag Zuf, Saulo nowachone jatich mane ni kode niya, “Bi wadogi, dipo ka wuora oweyo paro punde kendo mochako mana parowa.”
To jatich nodwoke kawachone niya, “Iwinjo, e dalano nitiere ngʼat Nyasaye moro marahuma kendo gik mowacho duto timore mana kaka owacho. Bi wadhi ire koro nikech onyalo nyisowa yo monego waluw.”
Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “To ka wadhi, en angʼo ma wabiro miyo ngʼatni? Chiemo mane ni e mifukewa oserumo. Waonge kod mich ma wanyalo tero ne ngʼat Nyasaye. En angʼo ma wan-go?”
Jatich nowachone kendo niya, “An-gi pesa moko manok. Abiro miye ngʼat Nyasaye mondo onyiswa yo monego waluw.” Chon e piny Israel kane ngʼato dhi penjo Nyasaye wach ne owacho niya, “Bi wadhi ka Janen,” nikech ngʼat miluongo ni janabi ndaloni ne iluongo ni janen.
Saulo nowachone jatich niya, “Mano ber, bi wadhi.” Omiyo negiwuok ma gidhi e dala kama ngʼat Nyasaye nodakie.
Kane giidho got matin-no ka gichomo dalano negiromo gi nyiri moko kadhi umbo pi kendo ne gipenjogi niya, “Bende ngʼat makoro nika?”
To negidwoko niya, “Ee entie, ero odhi nyimu kanyo, returu. Koro eka odonjo e dalawa kawuono nimar jowa timo misango e kama owal.” E sa ma usedonjo e dala to ubiro yudo kapok oidho odhi malo kama owal mondo ochiem. Ji ok bi chako chiemo nyaka ochopi, nikech nyaka ogwedh gir timo misango eka bangʼe jomo oluongi nyalo chiemo. Returu mapiyo sani ema unyalo yude.
Ne giwuotho mi gidhi nyaka dala, to kane gidonjo kanyo to negineno Samuel, kabiro gwenyore kodgi kochiko kama owal.
To chiengʼ motelone biro mar Saulo, noyudo ka Jehova Nyasaye osefwenyo ma ne Samuel. “Kiny kar sa ma kama abiro oro ngʼato moa e piny Benjamin. Wire mondo otel ne joga ma jo-Israel, enores joga e lwet jo-Filistia. Asekecho joga nimar ywakgi osechopona.”
Kane Samuel ogoyo wangʼe kuom Saulo, Jehova Nyasaye ne owachone niya, “Ma e ngʼat mane awuoyoni kuome nibiro rito ogandana.”
Saulo nodhi ir Samuel e dhorangach mopenje niya, “Kiyie to nyisa od janen?”
Samuel nodwoke niya, “An e janen. Tel nyima idhi kama owal maler nimar kawuono ibiro chiemo koda kendo kiny gokinyi abiro weyi idhi kendo ananyisi mago duto man e chunyi. Kor ka wach punde mane olal ndalo adek mokadho to owe chandi nimar oseyudgi. Koso en ngʼa ma chuny jo-Israel duto dwaro ka ok en in gi od wuonu?”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Donge an ja-Benjamin, oganda matin ahinya ei Israel, to donge dhoodwa bende e dhoot matin, moloyo ei oganda mar Benjamin? Angʼo momiyo iwacho wechegi kuoma?”
Eka Samuel nokelo Saulo gi jatije kar budho moketogi gibet e kom manyime kuom ji duto mane oluongo mane nyalo romo ji piero adek. Samuel ne onyiso jatedo niya, “Kel lemo mar ringʼo mane amiyi, mane anyisi ni iket tenge.”
Eka jatedo nokawo em gi sembe moketo e nyim Saulo. Samuel nowacho niya, “Ma e gima nokan-ni, cham, nikech nokan-nigo ne nyasini, chakre e kinde mane aluongoe welo.” Eka Saulo nochiemo gi Samuel chiengʼno.
Kane gisea e kama owal mi gidwogo e dala, Samuel nowuoyo gi Saulo ka gin kode ewi ode malo. Ne gichiewo ka piny yawore, eka Samuel noluongo Saulo ewi ot, kowachone niya, “Ikri abiro gonyi mondo ichak wuodhi.” Kane Saulo oseikore, en kod Samuel ne giwuok oko. Kane oyudo gin e bath dala, Samuel nowachone Saulo niya, “Nyis jatichni mondo otel, in to dongʼ chien mondo amiyi wach moa kuom Nyasaye.” Omiyo jatijno notimo kamano.
Eka Samuel nokawo tungʼ mar mo mi oolo ewi Saulo eka nonyodhe mowacho niya, “Donge Jehova Nyasaye osewiri mondo ibed jatelo ne joge moyiero. Kawuononi ka iseweya ibiro romo gi ji ariyo machiegni gi liend Rael e gwengʼ Zelza e tongʼ jo-Benjamin. Gibiro wachoni ni, ‘Punde mane iwuok idhi dwaro oseyudi.

Oket Saulo ruoth
Kane Saulo oseweyo Samuel, Nyasaye ne oloko chuny Saulo, kendo ranyisi duto nochopo kare chiengʼno. Kane gichopo Gibea, oganda mar jonabi noromone, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro mopongʼe gi teko eka nochako koro wach kodgi. Eka joma ne ongʼeye kane onene ka okoro gi jonabi, negipenjore kendgi niya, “Ma to en angʼo matimore ne wuod Kish? Saulo bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
To ngʼat moro modak e gwengʼno nomedo dwoko kopenjo niya, “Wuon-gi to en ngʼa?” Omiyo wachni nolokore ngero niya, “Saulo-ni bende en achiel kuom jonabi?” Kane Saulo osetieko koro noidho mobet e kar lemo.
Eka owad gi wuon Saulo nopenjogi niya, “Ne pod un kanye?”
Ne odwoko niya, “Ne wadwaro punde, to kane waneno ni gitamowa yudo eka wadhi ir Samuel.”
Owad gi wuon Saulo nowachone niya, “Nyisa gima Samuel nowachonu.”
Saulo nodwoke niya, “Ne owachonwa malongʼo ni punde ne oseyudo.” To ne ok onyise gima Samuel ne owacho kuom wach bedo ruoth.
Samuel noluongo oganda jo-Israel duto Mizpa e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, mowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Ne agolo Israel koa Misri, kendo ne aresou e teko mar loch Misri kod pinjeruodhi duto mane thirou.’ To koro useweyo Nyasachu, ma resou e masicheu gi chandruoku. Ma usewacho ni, ‘Ooyo miwa ruodhwa.’ Omiyo sani suduru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kuchanoru e ogandau kod e dhoutu.”
Kane Samuel okelo ogendini duto mag Israel machiegni, to oganda mar Benjamin ema ne oyier. Eka nokelo oganda mar Benjamin nyime, kaluwore gi dhoot ka dhoot, mine oyier dhood Matri. Mogik ne oyier Saulo wuod Kish. To kane gidware, to ne ok oyude. Eka negimedo penjo wach kuom Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Ngʼatni bende osebiro ka koso?”
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Ee, osepondo e kind misike.”
Negiringo ma giome, kane ochungʼ e dier oganda to ne obor ma ji moko ne gik mana e goke. Samuel nowachone ji duto niya, “Bende uneno ngʼat ma Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero? Onge ngʼama chalo kode kuom ji duto.”
Eka ji nokok niya, “Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa!”
Samuel nolero ne ji chike mag bedo ruoth. Nondikogi e kitabu mokano e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Samuel ne ogonyo ji mondo ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e dalane.
Saulo bende nodhi dalagi man Gibea, ka en gi joma thuondi mane osemul chunygi gi Nyasaye. To jomoko ma acheje nowacho niya, “Ere kaka ngʼatni nyalo resowa?” Negi chaye mine ok gikelone mich. To Saulo nolingʼ mos.
Saulo oreso Dala Maduongʼ mar Jabesh
Nahash ja-Amon nodhi malo momonjo Jabesh Gilead. Eka joma chwo man Jabesh Gilead nowachone niya, “Tim winjruok kodwa to wabiro bedo wasumbini magi.”
To Nahash ja-Amon nodwoko niya, “Abiro timo winjruok kodu mana ka uyie ni agolo wengeu ma korachwich kuom ngʼato ka ngʼato mondo akuodgo wi Israel duto.”
Eka jodong Jabesh nowachone niya, “Miwa ndalo abiriyo mondo waor joote e piny Israel duto kaonge ngʼama oyie biro konyowa to wabiro chiwore e lweti.”
Kane joote otundo Gibea dalagi Saulo mi ginyiso ji wechego, giduto ne giywak matek. E sechego noyudo Saulo duogo koa e puodho ka owuotho bangʼ rwethe eka nopenjo ni, Angʼo marach gi ji? Angʼo momiyo giywak? Eka negiwachone kendo weche mane jo-jabesh owacho.
Kane Saulo owinjo wechegi, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuome gi teko, mi iye nowangʼ ahinya. Ne okawo rwedhi ariyo mag pur mi oyangʼo mi opogo ringʼo lemo lemo, eka nooro joote gi ringʼogi e piny Israel duto, kowacho niya, “Ma e gima ibiro timne rweth ngʼat modagi luwo bangʼ Saulo gi Samuel.” Eka luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye ne omako ji mine giwuok gi chuny achiel. Kane Saulo okwanogi Bezek, jo-Israel ne oromo alufu mia adek to jo-Juda ne oromo alufu piero adek.
Neginyiso joote mane obiro niya, “Wachneuru jo-Jabesh Gilead ni, ‘E sa ma chiengʼ oore, enoresu.’ ” Kane joote odwoko ne jo-Jabesh wachni negimor. Eka neginyiso jo-Amon niya, “Kiny wanachiwre e lwetu kendo unutimnwa gima uneno ni bernu.”
Kinyne Saulo nopogo joge e migepe adek; kane ochopo kogwen eka negidonjo e kambi mar jo-Amon mi ginegogi nyaka chiengʼ obet makech. Jogo mane otony ne oke maonge ji ariyo mane owe kawuotho kaachiel.
Owal Saulo bedo ruoth
Eka ji nowachone Samuel niya, “Ngʼa gini mane penjo ni, ‘Bende Saulo dibed ruodhwa?’ Kelnwagi mondo waneg-gi.”
To Saulo nowacho niya, “Onge ngʼama inego kawuono nikech kawuono Jehova Nyasaye osereso Israel.”
Eka Samuel ne owacho ne ji niya, “Biuru wadhi Gilgal kendo kuno wadhi guro loch Saulo.” Omiyo ji duto nodhi Gilgal kendo negiguro Saulo kaka ruoth e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Kuno ne gichiwoe misengini mag lalruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo Saulo kod Israel noloso budho malich ahinya.
Twak ma Samuel ogoyogo oriti
Samuel nowachone jo-Israel duto niya, “Asewinjo gik moko duto ma usewachona kendo koro asemiyou ruoth. Koro un kod ruoth kaka jatendu. Anto aseti ma wiya oti lwar, kendo yawuota un-go ka. Asebedo jatendu chakre tin-na nyaka sani. Eri achungʼ ka. Hulieuru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod ngʼate mowir ketho ma asetimo. Rwadh ngʼa masekawo? Punda ngʼa masekawo? Ngʼatno ma asethiro? Asekawo asoya koa kuom ngʼa mondo odin wangʼa? Ka dipo ni asetimo achiel kuom gigi, to aikora mar loso.”
Negidwoko niya, “Pok iwuondowa kata thirowa. Bende pok ikawo gimoro amora moa e lwet ngʼato.”
Samuel nowachonegi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye en janeno kuomu, kendo ngʼate mowir bende obedo janeno kawuononi, ni ok useyudo gimoro e lweta.”
Negiwacho niya, “Adier, en janeno.”
Eka Samuel nowachone ji niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ema ne oyiero Musa gi Harun kendo nogolo kwereu koa e piny Misri. Koro sani, chungʼuru ka, mondo anyisu ratiro kendo aparnu e nyim Jehova Nyasaye timbe duto makare mane otimonu kaachiel gi wuoneu.
“Kane Jakobo odonjo e piny Misri, ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi, kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Musa gi Harun, mane ogolo kwereu owuok oa Misri mi oketogi kama gidakieni.
“To wigi nowil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi; omiyo nojwangʼogi e lwet Sisera, jatend lweny mar Hazor, kendo e lwet jo-Filistia gi ruodh Moab mane okedo kodgi. Ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, ‘Wasetimo richo, waseweyo Jehova Nyasaye mi watiyo ne nyiseche mag Baal gi Ashtoreth. To koro sani reswa e lwet wasikwa mi wanatini.’ Eka Jehova Nyasaye ne ooro Jerub-Baal (ma bende iluongo ni Gideon), Barak (ma bende iluongo ni Bedan), Jeftha gi Samuel, kendo ne oresou kuom wasiku mane omonjou koa koni gi koni, momiyo udak gi kwe.
“To kane uneno ka Nahash ruodh jo-Amon dwaro monjou, ne uwachona ni, ‘Nyaka wabed gi ruoth ma ritowa,’ kata obedo ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ne en ruodhu. Koro neuru ma e ruoth ma useyiero, mane ukwayo; omiyo Jehova Nyasaye oseketo ruoth mondo oritu.

To ka utamoru winjo Jehova Nyasaye, mi ungʼanyone chikene, to enokumu kaka ne okumo kwereu.
“Koro sani chungʼuru kar tiendu mondo une hono maduongʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye timo mana ka uneno! Donge sani en ndalo mikayoe ngano? Abiro luongo Jehova Nyasaye mondo okel polo mamor gi koth. Eka ubiro ngʼeyo ni usetimo marach e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kuom kwayou mane upenjogo ruoth.”
Eka Samuel noluongo Jehova Nyasaye, kendo mana gi odiechiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nokelo mor polo gi koth. Omiyo ji duto nochungʼ ka luoro omakogi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kod Samuel.
Eka ji duto nowachone Samuel niya, “Lam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ni jotichni mondo kik watho, nimar wasemedo ewi richowa mamoko tim marach mar kwayo mondo miwa ruoth.”
Samuel nodwokogi niya, “Kik ubed maluor. Kata obedo ni usetimo tim marachni, koro kik ulokru uwe Jehova Nyasaye, to tineuru gi chunyu duto. Kik ulokru uluw nyiseche manono. Ok ginyal konyou, bende ok ginyal resou nikech gin gik manono. Nikech nyinge maduongʼ, Jehova Nyasaye ok nojwangʼ joge, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne mor mar timou joge owuon.

Samuel okwero Saulo
Saulo ne ja-higni piero adek kane ochako bedo ruoth kendo nobedo ruodh Israel kuom higni piero angʼwen gariyo.
Saulo noyiero ji alufu adek kuom jo-Israel; to kuom joma noyierogo ji alufu ariyo ne ni kode Mikmash gi pinje gode mag Bethel, to ji alufu achiel ne nigi Jonathan e gwengʼ Gibea e piny Benjamin. To ji duto modongʼ nonyiso nodog miechgi.
Jonathan nomonjo kambi man Geba mar jolwenj jo-Filistia kendo jo-Filistia nowinjo wachno. Eka Saulo nochiko mondo ogo tungʼ e piny duto mi owacho niya, “We jo-Hibrania owinji!” Omiyo jo-Israel duto nowinjo wach ni Saulo osemonjo kambi jo-Filistia kendo koro jo-Filistia oselo gi jo-Israel.

Negiwuok mi gidhi gibworo Mikmash man yo wuok chiengʼ mar Beth Aven. Kane jo-Israel oneno kaka wach chal kuomgi kendo ni jolwenjgi othungʼ marach, ne gipondo e rogo, e bunge, e kind lwendni, e buche matut, e soko. Jo-Hibrania moko nongʼado aora Jordan modhi e piny Gad gi Gilead.

Omiyo nowacho niya, “Kelnauru gima itimogo misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mar lalruok.” Kendo Saulo nochiwo misango miwangʼo pep. E sa ma ne otieko chiwo misangono, Samuel nochopo kendo Saulo nodhi mondo omose.
Samuel nopenje niya, “Angʼo misetimoni?”
Saulo nodwoke niya, “Kane aneno ka ji ke to in bende pok ibiro e sa mane oketi, to jo-Filistia bende chokore Mikmash, ne aparo ni, ‘Koro jo-Filistia biro monja Gilgal, ka pod ok apenjo kendo pod ok akwayo Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonya.’ Omiyo ne aneno ni ochuna ni nyaka achiw misango miwangʼo pep.”

To koro pinyruodhi ok bi siko, Jehova Nyasaye oseyudo ngʼat ma chunye chal gi mare kendo osekete, mondo otel ne joge, nikech in ok iserito chik mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
Eka Samuel noa Gilgal modhi Gibea e piny Benjamin, kendo Saulo nokwano joma ne ni kode mine oyudo ni gin ji madirom mia auchiel.

Jonathan ne owacho ne wuowi matingʼo gige lwenje niya, “Bi mondo waidh wadhi e kambi joma ok oter nyangugi. Kamoro dipo ka Jehova Nyasaye nyalo tiyo kodwa. Onge gima nyalo tamo Jehova Nyasaye reso kata ka gin ji mangʼeny kata ka gin ji manok.”
Jatingʼ gige lwenje nodwoke niya, “Tim atima gima ni e chunyi nikech an chunya gi pacha ni kodi.”

Omiyo giduto ji ariyogo ne giwuok e lela mondo jo-Filistia manie kambigi onegi. Eka jo-Filistia nowacho niya, “Neuru! Jo-Hibrania mol kawuok ae buche mane gipondoe.” Eka ji duto mane ni e kambi nokok ni Jonathan gi jatingʼne gi lwenje niya, “Biuru irwa mondo une gima wabiro timonu.”

Eka Saulo nowacho ni Jonathan niya, “Wachna gima isetimo.”

Jehova Nyasaye odagi ni Saulo ok bed ruoth
Samuel nowachone ne Saulo niya, “An ema Jehova Nyasaye noora mondo awiri ibed ruodh joge Israel; omiyo koro lingʼ iwinj wach moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Abiro kumo jo-Amalek kuom gima negitimo ni jo-Israel kaka ne gigengʼonegi e kinde mane gia Misri. Koro dhiyo imonj jo-Amalek kendo itiek gimoro amora ma mekgi. Kik iwegi; neg chwo gi mon, gi rowere gi nyithindo madhoth, dhok, rombe, ngamia gi punde.’ ”
Omiyo Saulo noluongo joge Telaim mokwanogi kendo negiromo jolweny alufu mia ariyo mawuotho gi tiendegi to gi alufu apar moa Juda. Saulo nodhi e dala maduongʼ mar jo-Amalek koikore monjogi e holo. Eka nowachone jo-Keni niya, “Auru ka udhi mondo uwe jo-Amalek nikech ok adwar tiekou kodgi; nikech un ne utimo ngʼwono ni jo-Israel e kinde mane gia Misri.” Omiyo jo-Keni nowuok moweyo jo-Amalek.
Eka Saulo nokedo gi jo-Amalek kochakore Havila nyaka ochopo Shur to nyaka ochopo yo wuok chiengʼ mar Misri. Nomako Agag ruoth jo-Amalek kangima to joge duto to nonego gi ligangla pep.

Magi to ne ok giyie mondo oketh duto, to gimoro amora mane gichayo gi mago mayom yom to negitieko pep.
Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Samuel kawacho niya, “Akuyo nikech ne aketo Saulo obedo ruoth, nikech oseweyo luwa, kendo ok otimo kaka ne achike.” Samuel nochandore kendo noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye otieno mangima.
Samuel nochiew okinyi mangʼich kendo nodhi romo gi Saulo, mi nowachne niya, “Saulo osedhi Karmel. Kanyo osechungoe rapar mimiyego duongʼ kuno kendo osewuok kuno olor kodhi Gilgal.”
Kane Samuel obiro ire, Saulo nowachone niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye gwedhi! Asetimo duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochika.”
To Samuel nowachone niya, “Marangʼo awinjo ywak rombe gi dhok e ita?”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Jolweny nokelogi koa kuom jo-Amalek; negiweyo rombe kod dhok mabeyo mondo gitimgo misango ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi, to modongʼ wanego pep.”
Samuel nowachone Saulo niya, “Lingʼ thi! We mondo anyisi gima Jehova Nyasaye nowachona otieno mokalo.”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Nyisawa.”
Samuel nowachone niya, “Kata nobedo ni inenori ka ngʼama tin kamano, to donge ne ibedo jatelo mar dhout Israel? Jehova Nyasaye ne owiri mondo ibed ruodh Israel. Kendo ne omiyi ote, kowacho ni, ‘Dhiyo mondo itiek chuth jo-Amalek marichogi; ked kodgi nyaka ine ni itiekogi pep.’ Angʼo momiyo ne ok iwinjo dwond Jehova Nyasaye? Angʼo momiyo ne imuomori mi iyeko kendo itimo richo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye?”
Saulo nowacho niya, “To ne awinjo dwond Jehova Nyasaye ma atimo dwarone kendo atimo tich mane omiya mondo atim. Ne anego jo-Amalek pep kendo ne akawo Agag ruodhgi mi abirogo. Jolweny nokawo rombe gi dhok kuom gik moyaki, gigo mabeyo nowal ne Nyasaye mondo otimnego Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi misango Gilgal.”
Samuel nodwoke niya,
“Iparo ni Jehova Nyasaye mor gi chiwo kod misengini miwangʼo pep

Eka Saulo nowachone Samuel niya. “Asetimo richo. Asetamora luwo chik Jehova Nyasaye kod wecheni bende. Ne aluoro ji kendo ne atimo dwarogi. Koro sani asayi ni iwena richona kendo wadog kodi mondo mi alam Jehova Nyasaye.”
To Samuel nowachone niya, “Ok anyal dok kodi. Isedagi luwo wach Jehova Nyasaye, kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye bende osedagi ni kik ibed ruodh Israel!”
Kane Samuel ochako wuoth mondo odhi, Saulo nomako riak lawe, mi oyiech. Samuel nowachone niya, “Jehova Nyasaye oseyiecho pinyruodh Israel kogole kuomi kawuononi kendo osemiye ja-libambau moro maber moloyi. Jalno ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maduongʼ mar Israel ok riambi bende ok olok pache; nimar ok en dhano mondo olok pache.”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Asetimo richo. To kiyie to miya luor e nyim jodong joga kendo e nyim jo-Israel; dog koda mondo mi alam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi.” Omiyo Samuel nodok gi Saulo, kendo Saulo nolamo Jehova Nyasaye.
Eka Samuel nowacho niya, “Kelna Agag ruodh jo-Amalek.”
Omiyo Agag nobiro ire ka en gi chir koparo e chunye niya, “Lit mar tho osekadho.”
To Samuel nowacho niya,
“Kaka liganglani osemiyo mon owe maonge nyithindo,

Eka Samuel nonego Agag e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, Gilgal.
Eka Samuel nowuok modhi Rama, to Saulo bende nodok dalane Gibea. Nyaka chop odiechiengʼ mane Samuel othoe, ne ok ochako oneno Saulo kendo, kata obedo ni Samuel ne oywage kamano. Jehova Nyasaye ne okuyo nikech ne oketo Saulo obedo ruodh Israel.
Samuel owiro Daudi ruoth
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Samuel niya, “Ibiro kuyo ne wach Saulo nyaka karangʼo nikech asedage mondo kik obed ruodh Israel? Pongʼ tungʼ mari gi mo mondo ichak wuoth; aori ka Jesse ma ja-Bethlehem. Aseyiero achiel kuom yawuote mondo obed ruoth.”
To Samuel nopenje niya, “Dadhi nade? Saulo biro winjo wachno to obiro nega.”
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Kaw nyaroya idhigo kendo iwachne ni abiro timo misango ne Jehova Nyasaye. Luong Jesse e sawo mar misango, to abiro nyisi gima onego itim. Ibiro wirona ngʼat mabiro nyisi.”
Samuel notimo gima Jehova Nyasaye nowacho. Kane ochopo Bethlehem, to jodong dala ne luoro omako kane giromo kode. Negipenje niya, “Bende ibiro e yor kwe?”
Samuel nodwoko niya, “Ee, abiro e yor kwe. Asebiro mondo atim misango ni Jehova Nyasaye. Pwodhreuru mondo ubi e misango koda.” Eka nopwodho Jesse gi yawuote mi noluongogi e timo misangono.
Kane gichopo, Samuel noneno Eliab moparo niya, “Adier ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowiro eri ochungʼ ka e nyime.”
To Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Samuel niya, “Kik ingʼi ber mar dende kata borne nikech asedage. Jehova Nyasaye ok ngʼi gik ma dhano ngʼiyo. Dhano ngʼiyo ber ma oko, Jehova Nyasaye to ngʼiyo chuny.”
Eka Jesse noluongo Abinadab kendo nokete okadho e nyim Samuel. Samuel to nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ok oyiero kata ngʼatni.” Eka Jesse noketo Shama mondo okadhi, to Samuel nowacho niya, “Kata mana ngʼatni bende Jehova Nyasaye ok oyiero.” Jesse noketo yawuote abiriyo okadho e nyim Samuel mi Samuel nowachone ni onge ngʼama Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero kuomgi. Omiyo nopenjo Jesse niya, “Magi kende e yawuoti?”
Jesse nodwoko niya, “Pod nitiere wuowi ma chogo, en to okwayo rombe.”
Samuel nowachone niya, “Or ngʼato mondo oome, nikech ok wabi bet piny ka kapok ochopo.”
Ne ooro jaote mine okele. Ne en silwal man-gi ngima maber, ne dende nenore maber kendo ne en jachia.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Chungi iwire gi mo; nikech ngʼatni e en.”
Omiyo Samuel nokawo tungʼne mar mo mine owire e nyim owetene kendo kochakore chiengʼno Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro kuom Daudi gi teko. Bangʼe Samuel to nodok Rama.
Daudi tiyone Saulo
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye noseweyo Saulo kendo Jehova Nyasaye nochiwo thuolo mondo roho marach othage.
Jotich Saulo nowachone niya, “Ngʼe ni roho marach machandini, Nyasaye ema ochiwone thuolo. We ruodhwa ochik jotichne man kagi mondo odwar ngʼat manyalo goyo nyatiti. Obiro goye e kindeno ma roho marach ma Nyasaye omiyo thuolo obiro kuomi to iniwinj maber.”
Eka Saulo nowachone jotije niya, “Dwaruru ngʼat magoyo thum maber mondo ukelna.”
Achiel kuom jotich nodwoko niya, “Aseneno wuod Jesse moro ma ja-Bethlehem mongʼeyo goyo nyatiti. En ngʼat ma jachir bende en jalweny. Owuoyo maber kendo en jaber. To bende Jehova Nyasaye ni kode.”
Eka Saulo nooro joote ir Jesse kawacho niya, “Orna wuodi Daudi makwayo rombe.” Eka Jesse nokawo punda mokawo makati oketo e ngʼeye, ndede mar divai kod nyadiel mi nooro Daudi ma wuode oterone Saulo.
Daudi nobiro ir Saulo mi nodonjo mochako tiyone. Saulo nohere ahinya, kendo Daudi nobedo achiel kuom jatingʼne gige lweny. Eka Saulo nooro wach ni Jesse, kowacho niya, “Yie mondo Daudi obed jatija, nikech amor kode.”
E kinde duto ma Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuom Saulo, Daudi to ne kawo nyatiti kendo goyo. Saulo ne yudo kwe; kendo nochako winjo maber, eka roho marach ne weye.

Koro jo-Filistia nochoko jolweny mag-gi mondo gikedi kendo negichokore kama iluongo ni Soko e piny Juda. Negijot Efes-Damin man e kind Soko gi Azeka. Saulo gi jo-Israel to nochokore mine gibworo e Holo mar Ela kendo negichanore mondo girad gi jo-Filistia. Jo-Filistia ne ni ewi got moro to jo-Israel bende ne ni e got machielo to holo ne ni e kindgi.

Nosidho ogut mula e wiye kendo norwako koti mar lweny mar mula ma pekne oromo kilo piero abich gi abiriyo, ogwendene to norwakoe mula mothedhi, kendo noliero tongʼ mar mula e ngʼeye. Bond tongʼe ne chalo gi lodi, lew tonge to pekne ne romo kilo abiriyo. Jatingʼne okumba notelo nyime.
Goliath nochungʼ mokok ne jolweny mag Israel niya, “Angʼo momiyo ubiro kendo uriedo ne lweny? Donge an ja-Filistia, to un, donge un jotich Saulo? Yieruru ngʼato mondo olor obi kama antieni. To konyalo kedo koda monega, to wabiro bedo jotiju, to ka ahinge mi anege, to ubiro bedo jotijwa ma tiyonwa.” Eka ja-Filistiano nowacho niya, “Kawuononi athiano ne jolweny mag Israel! Miyauru ngʼato mondo wakedgo.” Kane Saulo gi jo-Israel owinjo weche ja-Filistia, kibaji nogoyogi mi luoro nomakogi.
Daudi ne en wuod ja-Efrath miluongo ni Jesse mane oa Bethlehem e piny Juda. Jesse ne nigi yawuowi aboro to e ndalo Saulo ne en ngʼat moti ma hike ngʼeny. Yawuot Jesse adek madongo noluwo Saulo e lweny. Wuowi maduongʼ ne en Eliab, mar ariyo ne Abinadab, to mar adek ne en Shama. Daudi ema ne wuowi matin kuomgi. Yawuowi adek madongo noluwo bangʼ Saulo, to Daudi ne jadok kinde ka kinde koa ir Saulo mondo odhi okwa romb wuon-gi Bethlehem.
Kuom ndalo piero angʼwen ja-Filistiano ne wuok okinyi godhiambo konyisore.

Nenane kaka oweteni dhi mondo iduogna wach maber moa kuomgi. Gin gi Saulo gi jo-Israel duto e holo mar Ela, ka gikedo gi jo-Filistia.”

Jo-Israel kod jo-Filistia nochanore koni gi kocha ka gimanyore. Daudi noweyo gigege gi jarit gik moko moringo odhi ir jolweny mi omoso owetene. Kane pod owuoyo kodgi, Goliath mathuon jo-Filistia ma ja-Gath nowuok kuom jolweny kakok kawacho wechege mag ajara mapile kendo Daudi nowinje. Kane jo-Israel oneno ngʼatno, to giduto ne giringe ka giluor ahinya.
Koro noyudo ka jo-Israel osebedo kawacho niya, “Donge uneno kaka ngʼatni osiko wuok? Owuok, mana mar jaro, Israel. Ruoth biro chiwo mwandu mathoth ne ngʼat monege. Bende obiro miye nyare mondo okendi, joodgi bende ok nogol osuru e Israel.”
Daudi nopenjo joma nochungʼ machiegni kode niya, “Ibiro tim angʼo ne ngʼat monego ja-Filistiani magol wichkuodni e Israel? Ja-Filistia ma ok oter nyangu to en ngʼa manyalo jaro jolweny mag Nyasaye mangima?”
Neginwoyone weche mane oyudo giwacho mi giwachone niya, “Ma e gima ibiro timo ne ngʼat manonege.”
Kane Eliab mowadgi Daudi maduongʼ, owinje ka owuoyo gi ji, mirima nomake kode mopenje niya, “Ibiro ka nangʼo? To rombe manok ka to iweyo gi ngʼa e thim? Angʼeyo ni in jangʼayi bende pachi richo, isebiro mana ni mondo ine kaka lweny dhi.”

Daudi nowachone Saulo niya, “Kik chuny ji nyosre nikech ja-Filistiani; jatichni biro dhi mondo oked kode.”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “In ok inyal dhi kedo gi ja-Filistia nikech in mana rawera, to en to osebedo kokedo chakre tin-ne.”
To Daudi nowacho ni Saulo niya, “Jatichni osebedo kakwayo romb wuon-gi. Ka sibuor kata ondiek omako achiel kuom rombwa, to ne alawe kendo agoye mi amaye rombo kagolo e dhoge. Kane ochikore ira, ne amake gi yie dende mi agoye kendo anege. Jatichni osenego sibuor gi ondiek; ja-Filistia ma ok oter nyanguni, biro bedo achiel kuomgi nikech osejaro jolwenj Nyasaye mangima.

Saulo nowachone Daudi niya, “Dhi kendo Jehova Nyasaye obed kodi.”
Eka Saulo norwako Daudi gi lawe owuon. Norwakone koti mar lweny kendo nosidhone ogudu mar mula e wiye. Daudi notweyo liganglane ewi law mi notemo wuothogo nikech ne ok ongʼiyo gi gigo.
Nowachone Saulo niya, “Ok anyal dhi gi gigi nikech ok angʼiyo kodgi.” Omiyo nogonyogi oko. Eka nokawo ludhe mi oyiero kite mapoth abich ei aora kendo noketogi e ofukune mar kwath mi otingʼo orujre e lwete kendo osudo machiegni gi ja-Filistiano.
E kindeno, ja-Filistiano gi jatingʼ kuode, ne sudo machiegni gi Daudi. Eka norango Daudi konone moneno ni en mana rawera ma silwal, ma jaber, mine obuone. Nowachone Daudi niya, “An guok mibirona kitongʼona kete?” Ja-Filistia nokwongʼo Daudi gi nying nyisechene. Nowachone niya, “Bi ka abiro miyo winy ma e kor yamo ringi gi le man e thim.”
Daudi nowachone ja-Filistiano niya, “Ibirona gi ligangla kod tongʼ gi bidhi, anto abironi e nying Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach jolweny Israel ma iseyanyo. Kawuononi Jehova Nyasaye biro keti e lweta, abiro goyi piny mi angʼad ngʼuti.

Kane ja-Filistiano osudo machiegni mondo oked kode, Daudi ne oringo mapiyo piyo kochiko kar kedo mondo orom kode. Nosoyo lwete ei mifukune mogolo kidi; eka noketo kidino e orujre mine odiro mogoyogo lend wangʼ ja-Filistiano. Kidi nodonjo e lend wangʼe mine opodho piny auma.

Kane jo-Filistia oneno ni thuon-gi osetho negilokore mi gichako ngʼwech. Eka jo-Israel gi jo-Juda nosudo machiegni negigiyo sigich lweny mi gilawo jo-Filistia nyaka gichopi kama idonjogo Gath nyaka rangeye mag Ekron.

Kane Daudi osetieko wuoyo gi Saulo, chuny Daudi nowinjore gi mar Jonathan gi Daudi mine ohere mana kaka oherore owuon. Koa odiechiengno Saulo nokawo Daudi kendo ne ok ochako odok dalagi ir wuon-gi.

Omiyo nogolo Daudi mondo oa bute mi nokete mondo obed jatend jolweny alufu achiel, kendo Daudi notelonegi e lwenje mane gidhiye.

Eka Saulo nochiko jotichne niya, “Wuouru gi Daudi lingʼ-lingʼ kendo wachneuru ni, ‘Winji, ruoth mor kodi kendo jotije duto bende oheri koro bed ore.’ ”
Neginwoyo wechego ne Daudi. To Daudi nowacho niya, “Uparo ni en wach mayot mar bedo or ruoth? An mana ngʼama odhier bende ok angʼera.”
Kane jotije Saulo onyise gima Daudi nowacho, Saulo nodwoko niya, “Wachneuru Daudi ni, ‘Ruoth ok dwar ni inyombne, eka ikaw nyare, to odwaro mana ni mondo ikelne ringre jo-Filistia mia achiel (ma en pien duongʼ-gi), mondo ochulgo kuor ne wasike.’ ” Chenro mar Saulo ne en ni mondo Daudi opodhie lwet jo-Filistia.

Saulo nowachone Jonathan ma wuode to gi jotije duto mondo gineg Daudi. To Jonathan nohero Daudi ahinya, mi nosieme niya, “Tangʼ, Saulo wuora manyo yo ma donegigo. Omiyo kiny gokinyi dhiyo ipondi kendo bed mana kuno. Abiro dhi oko kendo anachungʼ but wuora machiegni gi kama ipondoeno. Abiro wuoyo kode kuomi kendo abiro nyisi gima ayudo.”
Jonathan nowuoyo maber kuom Daudi ne Saulo, wuon mare, mowachone niya, “Ruoth kik itim marach ne jatichni Daudi; pok otimoni marach, to osemana konyi ahinya. Noyie tho chiengʼ mane onego ja-Filistia. Jehova Nyasaye nokelo loch maduongʼ ne jo-Israel duto, ne ineno mine imor. Angʼo madimi itim marach ni ngʼama onge ketho ka Daudi kinege maonge gima omiyo?”
Saulo nochiko ite ne wach Jonathan mi okwongʼore kowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni Daudi ok nonegi.”
Omiyo Jonathan noluongo Daudi monyise weche duto mane giwacho. Nokele ir Saulo, mi Daudi nobedo gi Saulo kaka nosebet mokwongo.

To roho marach ma Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo thuolo nobiro kuom Saulo kama nobetie piny ei ode ka otingʼo tongʼe e lwete. Kane Daudi ne goyo nyatiti, Saulo notemo chwowe gi tongʼ mondo oriwe gi kor ot, to Daudi nolengʼe mi tongʼ nochwowo kor ot. Otienono Daudi notony maber modhi.

Eka Mikal nokawo gima opa mopiele e kitanda, moume gi law, bangʼe oketo yie diek moko e wiye.

Saulo nowachone Mikal niya, “Angʼo momiyo iwuonda kama kiweyo jasika dhi matony?”

Kane Daudi oseringo motony, ne odhi Rama ir Samuel mi onyise timbe duto ma Saulo osetimone. Eka en gi Samuel negidhi Nayoth ma gibet kuno.

Eka Daudi noringo koa Nayoth e gwengʼ Rama mine odhi ir Jonathan mopenje niya, “Angʼo masetimo? Ere kethona? Rach mane ma asetimo ne wuonu, momiyo odwaro kawo ngimana?”
Jonathan nodwoke niya, “Onge. Ok ibi tho! Winji, wuonwa ok tim gimoro amora, bedni oduongʼ kata otin, ma ok onyisa. Angʼo madimi opandna wachni? Ok en kamano!”

Jonathan nowacho ni Daudi niya, “Gimoro amora midwaro ni atim abiro timoni.”
Omiyo Daudi nowacho niya, “Winji, kiny en Sawo mar Dwe manyien kendo nitie budho ma onego bed ni achiemo gi ruoth, to we adhi apondi oko nyaka chop odhiambo mar orucha. Ka wuonu ok onena e nyasini, to nyise ni, ‘Daudi nokwaya mondo amiye thuolo odhi dalagi Bethlehem mapiyo piyo, nikech anywolagi duto nigi misango mar higa ka higa.’ Ka owacho ni, ‘Mano ber,’ eka anabed gi adieri ni jatichni nigi kwe.

Daudi nopenje niya, “Ngʼa mabiro wachona ka wuonu odwoki gi gero?”

Eka Jonathan nowachone Daudi niya, “Gi nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, abiro wuoyo gi wuora e sa maka ma orucha! Ka en gi paro maber kuomi, to donge abiro anyisi? To ka wuora nigi chuny mar hinyi, to aweyo ma ok anyisi kendo konyi mondo itony idhi gi kwe, to mondo Jehova Nyasaye ochwada malit. Mad Jehova Nyasaye obed kodi mana kaka osebedo gi wuora.

Omiyo Jonathan nokwongʼore gi joka Daudi, kowacho niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye mondo ongʼad bura ne wasik Daudi.” Omiyo Jonathan noketo Daudi mochako ojiwo kwongʼruokne nikech nohere, nimar nohere mana kaka oherore owuon.
Eka Jonathan nowachone Daudi niya, “Kiny en Sawo mar dwe manyien kendo kiny nongʼere ni ionge nikech komi nobed nono.

Omiyo Daudi nopondo oko kendo kane Sawo mar Dwe manyien ochopo, to ruoth nobet piny mondo ochiem. Nobet kare mane ojabetie but kor ot, ka gimanyore gi Jonathan, Abner to nobet bath Saulo, kom Daudi to ne ninono.

Eka Saulo nowachone Jonathan wuode niya, “Angʼo momiyo wuod Jesse ok obiro e chiemo, chakre nyoro nyaka kawuono?”

Jonathan nochungʼ moa e mesa ka mirima mager omake chiengʼ mar ariyo mar dwe mane ok ochiemo, nikech chunye ne lit kod timbe wuon-gi mag wichkuot mane otimone Daudi.
Kinyne gokinyi Jonathan nodhi oko e kargi mar romo gi Daudi. Ne en-gi wuowi matin, kendo nowachone wuowino niya, “Ringi mondo idwar aserni madirogi.” E sa ma wuowino ne ringo, nodiro asere mokadhe. Ka wuowino nochopo kama asech Jonathan ne olwarie, Jonathan noluonge gi dwol maduongʼ niya, “Donge asere ni nyimi kanyo?” Eka nokok kowacho niya, “Reti! Dhi piyo!

Daudi odhi Nob
Daudi nodhi Nob ir Ahimelek jadolo. Ahimelek nokirni kane oromo kode mopenjo niya, “Angʼo momiyo in kendi? Angʼo momiyo ngʼato ok obiro kodi?”
Daudi nodwoko Ahimelek jadolo niya, “Ruoth oseora e ote moro konyisa ni, ‘Kik ngʼato ngʼe gimoro amora kuom oteni kod gik monyisi mondo itim.’ Joga to asechiko mondo waromgo kamoro. Angʼo ma in-go ka sani? Miya makati abich kata gimoro amora minyalo yudo.”
To jadolo nodwoko Daudi niya, “Aonge gi makati moro amora makmana nitiere moko mowal ka, ginyalo tiyo kode mana ka giseritore ma ok gibedo e achiel gi mon.”

Jadolo nodwoke niya, “Ligangla Goliath ja-Filistia, mane inego e holo mar Ela, nika; oboye gi law en e tok law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod. Ka idware to kawe, onge ligangla moro makmana mano.”
Daudi nowacho niya, “Onge moro amora machal kode; miyago.”
Daudi odhi Gath
Chiengʼno Daudi noringo Saulo mi odhi ir Akish ruoth Gath. To jotich Akish nowachone niya, “Donge ngʼatni e Daudi ma ruodh pinygi? Donge en ema gimielne ka giwer ni:

Wechegi nodonjo e chuny Daudi mi nomiyo oluoro Akish ruoth Gath ahinya. Omiyo nowuondore ni en janeko e nyimgi kanyo, kane en e lwetgi notimo timbe mag janeko, kogwaro dhorangach kendo koweyo olawo wuok e dhoge nyaka e yie tike.

Janabi Gad nowachone Daudi niya, “We dak kar pondo, dhi e piny Juda.” Omiyo Daudi nowuok modhi e bungu man Hereth.
Saulo onego jodolo mag Nob
Koro Saulo nowinjo ni osefweny kuma Daudi gi joge nitie. To Saulo noyudo obet piny e tiend yath moro ewi got man Gibea kotingʼo tongʼ e lwete kolwore gi jodonge. Saulo nowachonegi niya, “Winjuru, un jo-Benjamin! Bende wuod Jesse nomiu puothe gi puoth mzabibu? Bende enoketu jotend jolweny alufe kata jatend jolweny miche? Kare mano emomiyo uduto useriworuna? Onge ngʼato angʼata manyisa ka wuoda timo singruok gi wuod Jesse. Onge ngʼama dewo gima timorena kata manyisa ni wuoda osethuwo jatija mondo obutna ka rita kaka koro otimoni.”
Eka Doeg ja-Edom, manoyudo ochungʼ gi jodong Saulo, nowacho niya, “Ne aneno ka wuod Jesse odhi ir Ahimelek wuod Ahitub man Nob. Ahimelek nopenjone wach kuom Jehova Nyasaye, nomiye chiemo bende gi ligangla mar Goliath ja-Filistia.”
Eka ruoth nooro joote mondo oom Ahimelek jadolo ma wuod Ahitub kaachiel gi joodgi duto, mane gin jodolo e Nob, kendo giduto negibiro ir ruoth. Saulo nowacho niya, “Koro winji wuod Ahitub.”
Nodwoke niya, “Ruodha awinjo.”
Saulo nopenje niya, “Marangʼo useriworuna, in kod wuod Jesse, ka imiye makati, kod ligangla kendo ka ipenjone wach kuom Nyasaye, mi koro osengʼanyona kendo obuto korita, mana kaka otimo kawuononi?”
Ahimelek nodwoko ruoth niya, “Ere ngʼat ma ja-adiera kuom jotiji duto machal gi Daudi ori ma jatend joma riti, kendo mogen moloyo e odi mangima? Iparo ni mano e odiechiengʼ mokwongo mapenjonee Nyasaye wach? Ooyo ok en kamano! Ruoth kik iketne jatichni bura kata joodgi bura, nikech jatichni ok ongʼeyo gima dhi nyime ka.”
To ruoth nowacho niya, “Nyaka itho, in Ahimelek gi joodu duto.”
Eka ruoth nowachone joritne mane ni bute niya, “Lokreuru mondo uneg jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye, nikech gisedok jokor Daudi. Negingʼeyo ni oringo to negitamore nyisa.”
To jodong ruoth ne ok oyie mondo gineg jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye.

Eka nodhi Nob, e dala mar jodolo kendo kanyo nonegoe chwo, mon, nyithindo nyaka madhoth, dhok, punde kod rombe. Magi duto nonego gi ligangla.
To Abiathar wuod Ahimelek ma wuod Ahitub notony moringo odhi ir Daudi. Abiathar nonyiso Daudi ni Saulo osenego jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Daudi nowachone Abiathar niya, “E odiechiengʼno ka Doeg ja-Edom ne ni kanyo ne angʼeyo adier ni nyaka ne onyis Saulo. An ema akelo tho ne joka wuonu duto. Bed koda ka; kik iluor; ngʼato madwaro negino an bende odwaro nega. Onge gima nohinyi ka in koda.”
Daudi oreso Keila
Kane owach ne Daudi niya, “Ne jo-Filistia kedo gi jo-Keila kendo giyako gik man e laru mar dino cham,” nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Bende owinjore adhi kendo amonj jo-Filistia-gi?”
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Dhiyo, mondo imonj jo-Filistia kendo ires Keila.”
To jo-Daudi nowachone niya, “Ka Juda ka ema waluorie. Dobednwa machalo nade ka wadhi Keila mondo waked gi jolweny mag Filistia!”
Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye kendo mi Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke ne, “Lor idhi Keila nimar adhi chiwo jo-Filistia e lweti.” Omiyo Daudi gi joge nodhi Keila, mokedo gi jo-Filistia kendo opeyo jambgi. Nonego jo-Filistia mangʼeny mine oreso jo-Keila. Koro Abiathar wuod Ahimelek nosebiro gi law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod e kinde mane oringo kodhi ir Daudi Keila.

Nowach ne Saulo ni Daudi nosedhi Keila, omiyo nowacho niya, “Nyasaye osechiwe e lweta, nimar Daudi osetwere owuon ka odonjo e dala man-gi rangeye kod lodi.” Omiyo Saulo noluongo joge duto makedo ne lweny, mondo gilor gidhi Keila kendo gigengʼ ne Daudi gi joge.
Kane Daudi owinjo ni Saulo chano yor yude nowachone Abiathar jadolo niya, “Kel law akor mar law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod.” Daudi nowacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, jatichni osewinjo gadiera ni Saulo chano biro Keila mondo oketh dala nikech an. Bende jo-Keila nochiwane? To bende Saulo biro biro ka kaka jatichni osewinjo? Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, nyis jatichni.”
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Obiro biro.”
Daudi nopenjo kendo niya, “Jo-Keila biro chiwa kaachiel gi joga ne Saulo.”
To Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Gibiro timo kamano.”
Omiyo Daudi gi joge maromo mia auchiel, nowuok Keila mine giwuotho koni gi kocha ka gisiko gidar. Kane Saulo owinjo ni Daudi nosetony mowuok Keila ne ok odhi kuno.
Daudi nodak e kuonde mag pondo manie thim kendo e gode mag Thim Zif; odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ Saulo ne osiko ka dware, to Nyasaye ne ok oketo Daudi e lwete.
Kane Daudi ni Horesh man e thim Zif noyudo wach ni Saulo nosewuok mondo otiek ngimane. To Jonathan wuod Saulo nodhi Horesh ir Daudi mokonye koduogo chunye mondo oyud teko moa kuom Nyasaye. Nowacho niya, “Kik iluor. Saulo wuora ok bi timi gimoro. Ibiro bedo ruodh Israel, to an abiro bedo jalupni. Kata Saulo wuora ongʼeyo mano.” Kargi ji ariyogi negisingore e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Jonathan nodhi dala to Daudi to nodongʼ Horesh.
Jo-Zif nodhi Gibea ir Saulo mi giwachone ne, “Donge Daudi opondo kuomwa e kuonde pondo Horesh ewi got Hakila, mantie yo milambo mar Jeshimon? Koroni, yaye Ruoth, inyalo biro sa moro amora midwaro biroe, to obiro bedo wachwa mondo wachiwe ne ruoth.”
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo ogwedhu kuom timona maber. Dhiuru kendo umed ikoru. Nonuru mondo ungʼe kuma Daudi jadhiyoe kod ngʼat mosenene kuno. Gisenyisa ni en ngʼama yoreyore ahinya.

Kuom mano ne giwuok mi gidhi Zif motelone Saulo. Daudi gi joge to ne ni e Thim Maon man Araba yo milambo mar Jeshimon. Saulo gi joge nochako dwero, ka nowach ne Daudi wachno, nolor mwalo e lwanda mi nobet e Thim man Maon. Kane Saulo owinjo ma, nodhi e Thim man Maon kolawo Daudi.

Ka Saulo gi jolwenje ne chiegni juko Daudi gi joge mondo gimakgi, jaote nobiro ir Saulo, mowacho niya, “Bi piyo!

To Daudi nodhi malo koa kanyo modak e kuonde pondo mag En Gedi.
Daudi ongʼwono ne Saulo ma ok onege
Bangʼ ka Saulo nosea lawo jo-Filistia, nowachne niya, “Daudi nitie e Thim En Gedi.” Omiyo Saulo nokawo ji alufu adek; ji moyier kowuok e Israel duto, eka noikore mowuok kodhi dwaro Daudi gi joge but Rogo ma Nyakech pondoe.
Nobiro e abila mar rombe man but yo; to kanyo ne nitie rogo, to Saulo nodonjo e rogono mondo olosre. Daudi gi joge bende ne osedonjo ei rogono. Jogo nowacho niya, “Ma e odiechiengʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo kuome kowacho ni, ‘Abiro keto jowasiki e lweti mondo itimne kaka idwaro!’ ” Eka Daudi nosudo lingʼ-lingʼ mongʼado riak law Saulo.
Bangʼe chuny Daudi nochandore nikech nosengʼado riak law Saulo. Nowachone joge niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ok oyie mondo atim gima kamano ni ruodha, ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir, kata tingʼo lweta mondo ahinye; nikech en ngʼat mowir ma Jehova Nyasaye oyiero.” Kamano Daudi nokwero joge kendo ne ok oyienegi mondo gitug dhawo gi Saulo. Omiyo Saulo nowuok e rogo modhi e yore.
Eka Daudi nowuok oko mar rogo mi oluongo Saulo, “Ruodha ma ruoth!” Kane Saulo ongʼiyo chien, Daudi nokulore piny monindo auma ka wangʼe ochiko piny. Nowachone Saulo niya, “Angʼo momiyo ichiko iti ka ji wachoni ni, ‘Daudi dwaro hinyi’? Kawuononi iseneno gi wangʼi kaka Jehova Nyasaye ne oketi e lweta ei rogo. Jomoko ne owachona ni anegi, to ne aweyi; mi awacho ni, ‘Ok natingʼ lweta mar hinyo ruodha nikech en ngʼat Jehova Nyasaye mowir.’ Ne, wuora, ngʼi ine riak lawi ma an-go e lweta!

“En ngʼama ruodh Israel dwaro mondo onegi? Ilawo ngʼa? Guok motho koso kikun? Mad Jehova Nyasaye bed jangʼad buchwa mondo opog wach e kindwa. Mad onon wach makare kendo otingʼa malo; mad ochwaka kendo oresa e lweti.”
Kane Daudi otieko wuoyo, Saulo nopenjo niya, “Mano en dwondi Daudi wuoda?” Eka noywak matek. Eka nowachone Daudi niya, “In ngʼama kare maloya. Isetimona maber, an to asetimoni marach. Koroni eka isewachona tim maber misetimona; Jehova Nyasaye noketa e lweti to ne ok inega. Ka ngʼato onwangʼo jasike, bende oweye odhi ma ok ohinye?

Omiyo Daudi nosingore ne Saulo. Eka Saulo nodok dala, to Daudi gi joge nodhi e kargi mar pondo.

Eka Saulo nodhi mwalo e piny motimo ongoro e Zif, nodhi gi joge alufu adek, jo-Israel moyier, mondo odwar Daudi kuno.

Eka Daudi nowuok modhi kuma Saulo nojotie. Noneno kama Saulo gi Abner wuod Ner ma jatend jolwenje, noyudo osenindoe. Saulo ne nindo ei kambi, ka jolweny olwore.
Daudi nopenjo Ahimelek ja-Hiti gi Abishai wuod Zeruya, mowadgi Joab niya, “Ngʼama biro dhi koda mwalo e kambi ir Saulo?”

To Daudi noparo e chunye owuon niya, “Chiengʼ moro natho e lwet Saulo. Gima ber monego atim en ni onego atony karingo adhi e piny jo-Filistia. Eka Saulo nowe manya e Israel duto kendo natony e lwete.”
Omiyo Daudi gi ji mia auchiel mane ni kode nowuok modhi ir Akish wuod Maok ma ruodh Gath. Daudi kod joge nodak Gath ka gin gi Akish. Ngʼato ka ngʼato ne nigi joode, Daudi bende ne nigi monde ariyo: Ahinoam ma nyar Jezreel gi Abigael moa Karmel mane chi Nabal manosetho. Kane onyis Saulo ni Daudi oseringo odhi Gath, ne ok ochako omanye.
Eka Daudi nowachone Akish niya, “Ka aseyudo ngʼwono e wangʼi, to miya kamoro e achiel kuom mier matindo manie piny, mondo mi adag kuno. Angʼo momiyo jatichni didag kodi e dala maduongʼ mar ruoth?”
Kochakore odiechiengʼno Akish nomiye Ziklag, mosebet ka osiko e lwet ruodhi Juda nyaka chil kawuono. Daudi nodak e piny Filistia kuom higa achiel gi dweche angʼwen.
Koro Daudi gi joge nodhi momonjo jo-Geshur, jo-Girzi, gi jo-Amalek. Kochakore chon jogi nodak e piny mochopo Shur nyaka Misri. E kinde ka kinda mane Daudi omonjo pinjego ne ok oweyo dichwo kata dhako kangima, to noyako rombe, dhok, punde, gi ngamia gi lewni. Eka nodok ir Akish.
