6“Awurade de nkwa ne owuo nyinaa ba;
Ɔka ebi hyɛ damena mu, na ɔnyane ebinom.

11Afei, Elkana ne Hana gyaa Samuel hɔ kɔɔ efie wɔ Rama. Na abarimaa no bɛyɛɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔboaa ɔsɔfoɔ Eli.
Eli Mmammarima Amumuyɛfoɔ
12Eli mmammarima no yɛ asansafoɔ a wɔmfɛre Awurade, 13anaa wɔn asɔfodwuma. Ɛberɛ biara a obi bɛba abɛbɔ afɔdeɛ no na wɔrenoa ɛnam no, Eli mma no soma ɔsomfoɔ de adinam a ɛwɔ ano mmiɛnsa ba. Ɛberɛ a ɛnam no si ogya so no, 14ɔsomfoɔ no de adinam no wɔ dadesɛn no mu. Na wɔhyɛ sɛ deɛ adinam no bɛwɔ mu no nyinaa yɛ Eli mma no dea. Wɔde Israelfoɔ a wɔba Silo hɔ nyinaa faa saa ɛkwan yi so. 15Ɛtɔ dabi a, ansa na wɔbɛhye sradeɛ2.15 Na mmara no ka sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye sradeɛ ne sradenam wɔ afɔrebukyia no so (3 Mose 3.16; 4.8-10). no, ɔsɔfoɔ no ɔsomfoɔ ba bɛka kyerɛ onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no sɛ, “Ma ɔsɔfoɔ no ɛnam no bi, na ɔntoto. Ɔmpɛ wo ɛnam a woanoa, na mmom, ɛnam mono nko ara.”
16Onipa a ɔrebɔ afɔdeɛ no ka sɛ, “Fa dodoɔ biara a wopɛ, nanso sradeɛ no deɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhye ansa.” Ɛhɔ na ɔsomfoɔ no bɛka sɛ, “Dabi, fa ma me seesei ara, anyɛ saa a, mede tumi bɛfa.”
17Na saa bɔne a mmeranteɛ yi yɛ yi yɛ akyiwadeɛ wɔ Awurade anim, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔbu Awurade afɔrebɔ no animtia.
18Samuel deɛ, ɛwom na ɔyɛ abarimaa, nanso na ɔyɛ Awurade ɔboafoɔ. Na wɔde nwera asɔfotadeɛ ahyɛ no te sɛ ɔsɔfoɔ. 19Afe biara a ne maame ne ne kunu rekɔbɔ afirinhyia afɔdeɛ no, na ne maame pam batakari kumaa bi de kɔma no. 20Ansa na wɔbɛsane akɔ efie no, Eli hyira Elkana ne ne yere ka sɛ, “Awurade mma ɔbaa yi nwo mma, na ɔmmɛsi deɛ ɔbɔɔ ho mpaeɛ nyaeɛ a ɔde no maa Awurade no ananmu.” 21Na Awurade maa Hana woo mmammarima baasa ne mmammaa baanu. Na Samuel nyinii wɔ Awurade anim.
22Afei, Eli bɔɔ akɔkoraa, nanso na ɔnim deɛ ne mmammarima no de reyɛ Israelfoɔ. Nhwɛsoɔ bi ne sɛ, na ɔnim sɛ ne mmammarima no fa mmabaawa a wɔboa ntomadan no ano adwumayɛ no. 23Eli ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Metete mo ho nsɛm firi ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn a ɛfa amumuyɛsɛm a modie no ho. Adɛn enti na mokɔ so yɛ bɔne? 24Me mma, ɛsɛ sɛ mogyae! Mo ho nsɛm a metete firi Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nkyɛn fa mo ho no nyɛ. 25Sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia ɔfoforɔ a, Onyankopɔn tumi gyina mu ma ɔfɔdifoɔ no. Nanso, sɛ obi yɛ bɔne tia Awurade a, hwan na ɔbɛtumi adi agyinamu?” Eli mma no antie wɔn agya no afotuo, na Awurade nso reyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛkum wɔn.
26Na abɔfra Samuel nyiniiɛ, na ɔkɔɔ so nyaa adom firii Awurade ne ɔmanfoɔ nkyɛn.
Eli Abusuafoɔ Kɔkɔbɔ
27Ɛda koro bi Onyankopɔn onipa bi baa Eli nkyɛn de nkra yi brɛɛ no sɛ, “Sei na Awurade ka, ‘Manna me ho adi pefee ankyerɛ wʼagya fie ɛberɛ a na wɔyɛ nkoa wɔ Misraim no anaa? 28Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa mu no, Aaron na meyii no sɛ, ɔnyɛ me ɔsɔfoɔ a ɔbɛkɔ afɔrebukyia anim akɔhye aduhwam, na wahyɛ asɔfotadeɛ wɔ mʼanim.

30“Enti, asɛm a Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ka ne sɛ, ‘Meremma nneɛma bɔne a moreyɛ yi nkɔ so! Mehyɛɛ bɔ sɛ wo Lewi abusua fa no bɛyɛ mʼasɔfoɔ, nanso, wɔn a wɔdi me ni no, mɛdi wɔn ni; na wɔn a wɔbu me animtia no, mɛbɔ wɔn ahohora. 31Mɛma mo fiefoɔ agyae mʼasɔfodie som no.

Wɔbɛka sɛ, “Mesrɛ mo, momma yɛn nnwuma bi nyɛ wɔ asɔfoɔ no mu sɛdeɛ ɛbɛma yɛanya aduane adi, amee.” ’ ”
Okusaba kwa Kaana
12:1 a Luk 1:46-55 b Zab 9:14; 13:5 c Zab 89:17, 24; 92:10; Is 12:2-3Awo Kaana n’asaba mu bigambo bino nti,
“Omutima gwange gusanyukira Mukama;
amaanyi gange geenyumiririza mu Mukama Katonda.
Akamwa kange kasekerera abalabe bange,
kubanga essanyu lyange liri mu bulokozi bwo.”
22:2 a Kuv 15:11; Lv 19:2 b Ma 32:30-31; 2Sa 22:2, 32Tewali mutukuvu nga Mukama Katonda
tewali mulala wabula ggwe;
tewali Lwazi oluli nga Katonda waffe.
32:3 a Nge 8:13 b 1Sa 16:7; 1Bk 8:39 c Nge 16:2; 24:11-12Toyogera nate nga weewaanawaana
wadde okuleka akamwa ko okwogera eby’amalala,
kubanga Mukama Katonda y’amanyi byonna,
era y’apima ebikolwa.
42:4 Zab 37:15Emitego egy’ab’amaanyi gimenyebbwa
naye abanafu baweereddwa amaanyi.
52:5 Zab 113:9; Yer 15:9Abo abakkutanga, be bapakasa okufuna emmere
naye abo abeetaaga, tebakyalumwa njala.
Eyali omugumba azadde abaana musanvu,
n’oyo alina abaana abangi, asobeddwa.
62:6 a Ma 32:39 b Is 26:19Mukama Katonda y’aleeta okufa, era y’awa obulamu;
atwala emagombe ate n’azuukiza.
72:7 a Ma 8:18 b Yob 5:11; Zab 75:7Mukama Katonda y’ayavuwaza era y’agaggawaza;
atoowaza ate n’agulumiza.
82:8 a Zab 113:7-8 b Yob 36:7 c Yob 38:4Ayimusa abaavu okuva mu nfuufu;
asitula abali mu bwetaavu okuva mu ntuumu y’evvu;
n’abatuuza n’abalangira, era ne basikira entebe ey’ekitiibwa.
Kubanga emisingi gy’ensi gya Mukama Katonda, era okwo kw’atuuzizza ensi.
92:9 a Zab 91:12 b Mat 8:12 c Zab 33:16-17Anaakuumanga ebigere by’abatukuvu be,

Mukama alisalira ensonda ez’ensi omusango;

112:11 nny 18; 1Sa 3:1Awo Erukaana n’addayo ewuwe e Lama, naye omwana n’asigala ng’aweereza Mukama Katonda, ng’alabirirwa Eri.
Batabani ba Eri
122:12 Yer 2:8; 9:6Batabani ba Eri baali basajja ba mpisa mbi, nga tebatya Mukama Katonda. 132:13 Lv 7:29-34Omuntu yenna bwe yawangayo ssaddaaka, omuweereza wa kabona yajjanga, ng’akutte ewuuma ey’amannyo asatu ng’ennyama ekyatokosebwa, 14n’asonseka ewuuma mu nsaka oba mu bbinika, oba mu ntamu, oba mu sefuliya, era ebyo byonna ewuuma bye yakwasanga, kabona bye yeetwaliranga. Bwe batyo bwe baakolanga Abayisirayiri bonna abajjanga okusinziza e Siiro. 15Ate amasavu bwe gaabanga tegannayokebwa, omuweereza wa kabona yajjanga n’agamba omuntu awaayo ssaddaaka nti, “Kabona muwe ku nnyama ayokye, kubanga tajja kukkiriza kutwala nnyama nfumbe ayagala mbisi yokka2:15 Etteeka lyaweebwa ng’amasavu n’ennyama ensava byali byakwokeeranga ku kyoto (Lv 3:16; 4:8-10)..”
16Omusajja bwe yamuddangamu nti, “Leka bamale okwokyako amasavu, olyoke otwale yonna gy’oyagala,” omuweereza yaddangamu nti, “Nedda, oteekwa okugimpa kaakano, bwe kitaba bwe kityo, nzija kugitwala lw’amaanyi.”
172:17 Mal 2:7-9Ekibi ky’abavubuka abo ne kiba kinene nnyo mu maaso ga Mukama, kubanga baanyoomanga ekiweebwayo kya Mukama Katonda.
182:18 a nny 11; 1Sa 3:1 b 1Sa 3:28Samwiri n’aweerezanga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda nga mulenzi muto, eyayambalanga ekkanzu ey’obwakabona eya bafuta. 192:19 1Sa 1:3Nnyina n’amukolelanga ekyambalo n’akimutwaliranga, bwe yabanga ayambuse ne bba okuwaayo ssaddaaka eya buli mwaka. 202:20 1Sa 1:11, 27-28; Luk 2:34Eri n’awa Erukaana ne mukyala we omukisa, ng’ayogera nti, “Mukama Katonda abawe abaana okudda mu kifo ky’oyo mukazi wo ono gwe yasaba, n’amuwaayo ng’ekirabo eri Mukama.” N’oluvannyuma baddayo eka. 212:21 a Lub 21:1 b nny 26; Bal 13:24; 1Sa 3:19; Luk 2:40Mukama n’aba wa kisa eri Kaana, n’azaala abaana aboobulenzi basatu, n’aboobuwala babiri. Omuvubuka Samwiri n’akulira mu maaso ga Mukama.
222:22 Kuv 38:8Awo Eri eyali akaddiye ennyo, n’awulira ebyo byonna batabani be bye baakolanga Abayisirayiri bonna, ne bwe beetabanga n’abakyala abaweerezanga ku mulyango gw’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. 23N’abagamba nti, “Kiki ekibakoza ebifaanana bwe bityo? Bye mpulira okuva eri abantu bano bonna nga si birungi. 24Nedda, baana bange; ebigambo bye mpulira ebisaasaana mu bantu ba Mukama si birungi n’akatono. 252:25 a Kbl 15:30; Yos 11:20 b Ma 1:17; 1Sa 3:14; Beb 10:26Omuntu bw’ayonoona eri muntu munne, Katonda2:25 oba abalamuzi ayinza okubatabaganya, naye omuntu bw’ayonoona eri Mukama, ani anaamwegayiririra?” Naye ne batawuliriza bigambo bya kitaabwe, kubanga Mukama yali asazeewo okubazikiriza.
262:26 nny 21; Luk 2:52Awo omuvubuka Samwiri ne yeeyongera okukula, n’aba muganzi eri Mukama n’eri abantu.
Ebyalangibwa ku Nnyumba ya Eri
272:27 Kuv 4:14-16; 1Bk 13:1Awo ne wabaawo omusajja wa Katonda eyajja eri Eri, n’amugamba nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Sseeraga bulungi eri ennyumba ya jjajjaawo mu Misiri bwe baali bafugibwa Falaawo? 282:28 a Kuv 28:1 b Lv 8:7-8Nalonda jjajjaawo okuva mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri okuba kabona wange, okwambukanga ku kyoto kyange, okwoterezangako obubaane, n’okwambalanga ekkanzu ey’obwakabona eya bafuta mu maaso gange. Era ne mpa ennyumba ya jjajjaawo ebiweebwayo byonna ebyokebwa Abayisirayiri. 292:29 a nny 12-17 b Ma 12:5; Mat 10:37Lwaki munyooma ssaddaaka yange n’ekiweebwayo kyange bye nalagira, okuweebwangayo mu yeekaalu yange? Lwaki ossaamu batabani bo ekitiibwa okunsinga, nga mweddiza ebitundu ebisinga obusava ku buli kiweebwayo abantu bange, Isirayiri, kye bawaayo?’
302:30 a Kuv 29:9 b Zab 50:23; 91:15 c Mal 2:9“Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri kyava ayogera nti, ‘Nasuubiza nti ennyumba yo n’ennyumba ya jjajjaawo be banaaweerezanga mu maaso gange ennaku zonna;’ naye kaakano Mukama agamba nti, ‘Kikafuuwe! Abanzisaamu ekitiibwa bennassangamu ekitiibwa, naye abo abonnyooma banaaswazibwanga. 312:31 1Sa 4:11-18; 22:16-20Laba ekiseera kijja lwe ndikumalamu amaanyi era n’ennyumba ya jjajjaawo nayo ne ngimalamu amaanyi, waleme okubaawo n’omu aliwangaala okutuuka mu bukadde, 322:32 1Bk 2:26-27; Zek 8:4olyoke olabire ennaku mu nnyumba yange. Newaakubadde Isirayiri erifuna omukisa, tewalibaawo n’omu ku b’omu nnyumba yo aliwangaala n’akaddiwa. 33Omuntu yekka ku bantu bo gwe siizikirize, gwe ndikkiriza okumpeereza ku kyoto kyange, alisigalawo kukulabya nnaku, na kukunakuwaza mu mutima, na kukukaabya maziga; era bazzukulu bo bonna banaafanga nga kyebajje bavubuke.’
342:34 a 1Sa 4:11 b 1Bk 13:3“ ‘Ekirituuka ku batabani bo, Kofuni ne Finekaasi, ke kaliba akabonero gy’oli era bombi balifa ku lunaku lumu. 352:35 a 1Sa 12:3; 1Bk 2:35 b 1Sa 16:13; 2Sa 7:11, 27; 1Bk 11:38Ndyeyimusiza kabona omwesigwa, aligoberera ebiri mu mutima gwange ne mu mmeeme yange. Ndinywereza ddala ennyumba ye, era aliweerezanga ennaku zonna mu maaso g’oyo gwe ndifukako amafuta. 362:36 1Bk 2:27Era buli aliba asigaddewo ku b’omu nnyumba yo alijja n’amuvuunamira ng’amusaba ekitundu kya ffeeza n’omugaati ng’ayogera nti, “Nkwegayiridde nnonda okuba omu ku bakabona, nsobole okufuna ekyokulya.” ’ ”
