Samwiri Anenya Sawulo
1Sawulo yalina emyaka amakumi asatu we yaliira obwakabaka, n’afuga Isirayiri okumala emyaka amakumi ana. 213:2 1Sa 10:26Sawulo yalonda abasajja enkumi ssatu okuva mu Isirayiri, enkumi ebbiri ku bo ne babeera naye e Mikumasi ku lusozi olw’e Beseri, n’abalala lukumi ne babeera ne Yonasaani e Gibea ekya Benyamini. Abasajja abalala bonna n’abasindika baddeyo ewaabwe. 313:3 1Sa 10:5Yonasaani n’alumba olusiisira lw’Abafirisuuti eyali e Geba, Abafirisuuti ne bakiwulira. Awo Sawulo n’alagira, bafuuwe ekkondeere mu nsi yonna, ng’agamba nti, “Abaebbulaniya bawulire!” 413:4 Lub 34:30Awo Isirayiri yenna bwe baawulira nga Sawulo awambye olusiisira lw’Abafirisuuti, ate nga Isirayiri yali efuuse ekyenyinyalwa eri Abafirisuuti, abantu ne balagirwa okwegatta ku Sawulo e Girugaali.
513:5 Yos 11:4Abafirisuuti ne beekuŋŋaanya okulwana n’Abayisirayiri. Abafirisuuti baalina amagaali emitwalo esatu, n’abeebagala embalaasi kakaaga, n’abaserikale abeebigere ng’omuwendo gwabwe gwenkana ng’omusenyu ogw’oku nnyanja obungi. Ne bayambuka ne basiisira e Mikumasi, ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’e Besaveni. 613:6 Bal 6:2Abasajja Abayisirayiri bwe baalaba ng’embeera yaabwe mbi nnyo, n’eggye lyabwe nga linnyigirizibwa omulabe, ne beekweka mu mpuku, ne mu bisaka ne mu njazi, ne mu binnya. 713:7 Kbl 32:33Ne wabaawo n’abamu ku Baebbulaniya abaasomoka Yoludaani ne bagenda mu nsi ya Gaadi ne Gireyaadi.
Sawulo ye n’asigala e Girugaali, n’abaserikale bonna be yali nabo, naye nga bajjudde okutya. 813:8 1Sa 10:8N’alinda okumala ennaku musanvu, ebbanga Samwiri lye yali amulaze, naye Samwiri n’atajjirawo e Girugaali, n’abasajja ba Sawulo ne batandika okumuvaako. 913:9 2Sa 24:25; 1Bk 3:4Sawulo kyeyava ayogera nti, “Mundeetere wano ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa n’ekiweebwayo olw’emirembe.” N’awaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa. 1013:10 1Sa 15:13Naye bwe yali yakamala okuwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, Samwiri n’atuuka. Sawulo n’agenda okumwaniriza.
1113:11 nny 2, 5, 16, 23Samwiri n’amubuuza nti, “Kiki kino ky’okoze?” Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Bwe nnalabye ng’abasajja batandise okusaasaana, ate nga tozze mu kiseera kye walaga, ate nga n’Abafirisuuti bakuŋŋaanira e Mikumasi, 1213:12 Yer 26:19ne ndowooza nti, ‘Kaakano Abafirisuuti bagenda kukkirira okunnumba e Girugaali, nga sinnaba kwegayirira kufuna mukisa gwa Mukama, kyenvudde mpalirizibwa okuwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa.’ ”
1313:13 a 2By 16:9 b 1Sa 15:23, 24Samwiri n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Okoze kya busirusiru, obutakuuma kiragiro kya Mukama Katonda wo kye yakulagira. Singa wakikuumye, Mukama yandinywezezza obwakabaka bwo okufuga Isirayiri emirembe gyonna. 1413:14 a 1Sa 15:28 b Bik 7:46; 13:22 c 2Sa 6:21Naye kaakano obwakabaka bwo tebuliba bwa lubeerera. Mukama anoonyezzaayo omusajja alina omutima ogumunoonya era amulonze okuba omukulembeze w’abantu be, kubanga tokuumye kiragiro kya Mukama.” 1513:15 1Sa 14:2Awo Samwiri n’ava e Girugaali n’ayambuka e Gibea mu Benyamini, Sawulo n’abala abasajja abaali naye, nga baawera nga lukaaga.
Ebbula ly’Ebyokulwanyisa mu Isirayiri
16Sawulo ne mutabani we Yonasaani, n’abasajja abaali nabo baali basiisidde e Gebea ekya Benyamini, ate ng’Abafirisuuti bo basiisidde Mikumasi. 1713:17 a 1Sa 14:15 b Yos 18:23Abalabe ne bava mu nkambi y’Abafirisuuti mu bibinja bisatu, ekimu ne kyolekera Yofula, mu nsi ya Suwaali, 1813:18 a Yos 18:13-14 b Nek 11:34n’ekibinja ekirala ne kyolekera Besukolooni, n’ekyokusatu ne kyolekera ensalo etunuulidde ekiwonvu Zeboyimu okwolekera eddungu.
1913:19 2Bk 24:14; Yer 24:1Mu nsi yonna eya Isirayiri temwali muweesi n’omu, kubanga Abafirisuuti baali baasalawo nti, “Si kulwa ng’Abaebbulaniya beeweeseza ebitala oba amafumu!” 20Noolwekyo Abayisirayiri bonna baaserengetanga eri Abafirisuuti, okuwagala enkumbi zaabwe, n’ebiwabyo byabwe, n’embazzi zaabwe, ne najjolo zaabwe. 21Baalinanga omuwendo gwe baasasulanga olw’okuwagala enkumbi ey’amannyo abiri n’ebiwabyo, nga gwa njawulo ku ogwo gwe baawangayo olw’okuwagala embazzi n’emiwunda.
2213:22 a 1By 9:39 b Bal 5:8Era ku lunaku olw’olutalo tewaali muserikale n’omu ku baali ne Sawulo ne Yonasaani, eyalina ekitala wadde effumu, okuggyako Sawulo ne mutabani we Yonasaani13:22 Abayisirayiri baalwanyisanga mitego na busaale. 2313:23 1Sa 14:4Waaliwo ekibinja eky’Abafirisuuti ekyali kigenze mu kifo ekyayitibwanga Mikumasi.
