Samuweli Oopacerya 7:1-17
7 Alopwana a oKiriyathi-Yarimi, yaahirwa, akuxa nivuku na nivarihano na Yehova, aroiha owannyawe Abinadabi, opuro woottukhuwa.* Nto yaahimuthanla* Eleyazari, mwaana a Abinadabi, wiira osukeke nivuku na nivarihano na Yehova.
2 Waahivira okathi munceene, eyo piiyo, iyaakha 20, okhuma nihiku nenle nivuku na nivarihano, naaroihiwe aya oKiriyathi-Yarimi. Vano atthu ootheene a Isarayeli yaahipacerya omphavela* Yehova.
3 Samuweli aahaaleela atthu ootheene a Isarayeli: “Vakhala wiira mmutthikenle Yehova ni murima anyu wootheene, mwaamala-malihe eriyari anyu amuluku a amalapo ni ilatarato sa Astoreti. Vano mmutthikele Yehova ni murima anyu wootheene, ni mmurumeeleke yoowo. Mwiira siiso, onoowoopolani mmatatani mwa afilisti”.
4 Nto, aisarayeli yaahimala-maliha ilatarato sa Bayaali ni sa Astoreti, anamurumeela Yehova paahi.
5 Nto, Samuweli aahihimya wiira: “Mwaathukumanye atthu ootheene a Isarayeli oMisipa, miyo kinrowa onvekela Yehova mwaha wa nyuwo”.
6 Aisarayeli yaahithukumana oMisipa, ni yaahirika maasi yiitthela ohoolo wa Yehova, ni yaahitthukwa nihiku nle. Awo yaahihimya wiira: “Noomutthekela Yehova”. Vano Samuweli aahipacerya waalamulela atthu a Isarayeli oMisipa.
7 Okathi afilisti yaasuwenle aya wiira aisarayeli yaahithukumana oMisipa, anamalamulela a afilisti, yaahivenya orowa waatuphela atthu a Isarayeli. Nuumala osuwela eyo, aisarayeli yaahiwoova afilisti.
8 Aisarayeli yaahimuleela Samuweli wiira: “Muhihiye onvekela Yehova, Muluku ahu, wiira onikhaliherye ni onoopole mmatatani mwa afilisti”.
9 Vano, Samuweli aahimukuxa mwaapwittipwitthi ahaahiyale waamwa, onvaha Yehova ntoko mukuttho woopahiwa. Nto Samuweli aahinvekela Yehova wiira aakhaliherye aisarayeli. Siiso Yehova aahimwaakhula.
10 Nlelo Samuweli ovahaka mukuttho woopahiwa, yaahirwa afilisti waatuphela atthu a Isarayeli. Nihiku nenle, Yehova aahaakumiherya afilisti okukutteya* wuulupale, ni aahiwiiriha ohiiwanana. Nto yaahixinttiwa ni atthu a Isarayeli.
11 Alopwana a Isarayeli yaahikhuma oMisipa ni yaahiwoomola afilisti, awiivaka mphironi mpakha osuuli, muttetthe wa oBethi-Kari.
12 Moottharelana, Samuweli aahikuxa nluku opweha eriyari ya oMisipa ni oYexana, ni aahivaha nsina noowi Ebenezeri,* oriki: “Mpakha vano, Yehova oonikhaliherya”.
13 Nto, afilisti yaahiweriwa, ni khiyaatthikenle-tho otuphela muttetthe wa atthu a Isarayeli. Yehova aahithipelela waavirikanya afilisti mahiku ootheene Samuweli aari awe mukumi.
14 Nave-tho, ipooma seiyo afilisti yaawaakhale aya atthu a Isarayeli, saahittikiheriwa atthu a Isarayeli, okhuma wEkironi mpakha oGathi. Aisarayeli yaahikuxa muttetthe aya waakuxiwe ni afilisti.
Nave-tho, waahikhala murettele eriyari ya atthu a Isarayeli ni atthu a wAmori.
15 Samuweli aahaalamulela atthu a Isarayeli okathi wootheene aari awe mukumi.
16 Khula eyaakha, aaneetta mukwaha orowaka oBeteli, oXiligali, ni oMisipa, aalamulelaka atthu a Isarayeli mapuro awo ootheene.
17 Nuumala-vo aanitthikela oRama, okhala wiira empa awe yaari weiwo, nave-tho aanaalamulela atthu a Isarayeli ori ene weiwo. Samuweli aahimutekela altaari Yehova, oRama.
