uSamuweli 1-16
uSamuweli uyalelwa nguYese ukuba athambise ukumkani omtsha
1Wathi uYehova kuSamuweli, Uya kumlilela kude kube nini na uSawule, ndimshiyile nje ukuba abe ngukumkani kumaSirayeli? Zalisa isigodlo sakho ngeoli, hamba, ndiya kukuthumela kuYese waseBhetelehem; ngokuba ndizinyulele ukumkani koonyana bakhe. 2Wathi uSamuweli, Ndothini na ukuya? akuva uSawule, andibulale. Wathi uYehova, Zithabathele ivesi, ithi, Ndize kubingelela kuYehova. 3Bizela embingelelweni uYese; ndokuxelela mna into oya kuyenza; uze undinike lowo bendikubizele kona. 4Wenza ke uSamuweli ngokwelizwi likaYehova, wafika eBhetelehem. Akufika kuye amadoda amakhulu aloo mzi, athi, Ufike enoxolo na? 5Wathi, Ndize kubingelela kuYehova ndinoxolo; zingcwaliseni, nize nam embingelelweni. Wabangcwalisa uYese noonyana bakhe waza wababizela embingelelweni. 6Ekufikeni kwabo, wakhangela kuEliyabhi, wathi, Okunene, umthanjiswa kaYehova unaye. 7Wathi uYehova kuSamuweli, Musa ukukhangela ubuso bakhe, nokuphakama kwesiqu sakhe; ngokuba ndimshiyile; ngokuba uYehova akaboni njengoko abonayo umntu; ngokuba umntu ukhangela umphandle, uYehova ukhangela intliziyo. 8uYese wabiza uAbhinadabhi waza wamvumela ukuba agqithe phambi koSamuweli. Wathi: uYehova akamnyulanga nalo. 9uYese wamndulula ke uSama. Wathi: uYehova akamnyulanga nalo. 10Kwakhona uYese wabandulula oonyana bakhe abasixhenxe ukuba badlule phambi koSamuweli. Wathi uSamuweli kuYese, uYehova akamnyulanga lo. 11Wathi uSamuweli kuYese, Baphelele na oonyana bakho? Wathi, Kusele umncinane; nanko lusalusa iigusha. Wathi uSamuweli kuYese, Thumela abizwe, ngokuba asinakuhlala ade eze apha. 12Wathumela ukuba aziswe. Ebebomvu ebusweni, emhle, emhle imbonakalo. Wathi uYehova, Suka ume, umthambise; ngokuba nguye; 13uSamuweli wathabatha uphondo oluneoli waza wamthambisa phakathi kwabazalwana bakhe, yaye umoya kaYehova wehla phezu koDavide ukususela ngaloo mini. Emva koko uSamuweli waphakama waya eRama. 14Umoya kaYehova wemka kuSawule, waza wankwantyiswa ngumoya ombi kaYehova. 15Bandula ke abakhonzi bakaSawule bathi kuye: “Yabona, udandathekiswa ngumoya ombi ophuma kuThixo. 16Kaloku ukumkani wethu makabawisele umthetho abakhonzi bakho phambi kwakho, ukuba bafune indoda elumkileyo ebetha uhadi; ukuba umoya ombi kaThixo ufikile kuwe, ufika ngesandla sakhe, nophiliswa wena. 17Wathi uSawule kubakhonzi bakhe, Ndiqokeleleni indoda ekwaziyo ukubetha uhadi, niyizise kum. 18Waphendula omnye wakubakhonzi, wathi, Yabona, ndimbonile unyana kaYese waseBhetelehem okrelekrele, indoda eligorha, esisilumko kweshishini, njengendoda entle; uYehova unaye. 19uSawule wathumela abathunywa kuYese, esithi, Mthumele eze kum, uDavide, unyana wakho, ohlala emhlambini. 20uYese wathabatha iesile, kubotshelelwe isonka, nengxowa yewayini, netakane lebhokhwe, wathumela kuSawule ngesandla sikaDavide unyana wakhe. 21Weza uDavide kuSawule, wema ngakuye, wamthanda kunene; waba ludibi lwezixhobo zakhe. 22Wathumela uSawule kuYese, esithi, uDavide ume ngakum; ngokuba ubabalwe ndim. 23Wehla umoya ombi kaThixo kuSawule, walithabatha izembe elingaphakathi uDavide, wabetha ngesandla sakhe;
