Pemphero la Hana
1Ndipo Hana anapemphera nati,
“Moyo wanga ukukondwera mwa Yehova;
Ndiyenda mwa tukumutukumu chifukwa cha Yehova.
Pakamwa panga pakula ndi kuseka adani anga mowanyogodola.
Ndikukondwa chifukwa mwandipulumutsa.
2“Palibe wina woyera ngati Yehova,
palibe wina koma inu nokha,
palibe thanthwe lofanana ndi Mulungu wathu.
3“Musandiyankhulenso modzitama,
pakamwa panu pasatuluke zonyada,
pakuti Yehova ndi Mulungu wanzeru,
ndipo ndiye amene amayesa ntchito za anthu onse.
4“Mauta a anthu ankhondo athyoka
koma anthu ofowoka avala dzilimbe.
5Amene kale anali okhuta tsopano akukagula chakudya,
koma iwo amene anali ndi njala sakumvanso njala.
Amene anali wosabereka, wabereka ana aamuna asanu ndi awiri,
koma iye wobereka ana ambiri watsala yekha.
6“Yehova amabweretsa imfa ndipo amaperekanso moyo,
amatsitsira ku manda ndipo amawatulutsakonso.
7Yehova amasaukitsa ndipo amalemeretsa,
amatsitsa ndipo amakweza.
8Iye amakweza osauka kuwachotsa pa fumbi,
ndipo amachotsa anthu osowa pa dzala.
Iye amawakhazika pamodzi ndi ana a mafumu,
amawapatsa mpando waulemu.
“Pakuti nsanamira za dziko lapansi ndi za Yehova,
anakhazika dziko lapansi pa nsanamirazo.
9Iye adzateteza moyo wa anthu okhulupirika
koma anthu oyipa adzawonongedwa mu mdima.
“Pakuti munthu sapambana ndi mphamvu zake.
10Yehova adzaphwanya omutsutsa.
Adzawaopsa ndi bingu kuchokera kumwamba;
Yehova adzaweruza mathero a dziko lapansi.
“Koma adzapereka mphamvu kwa mfumu yake,
adzakuza mphamvu za odzozedwa wake.”
11Tsono Elikana anapita ku mudzi kwawo ku Rama, koma mnyamatayo amatumikira Yehova pansi pa ulamuliro wa wansembe Eli.
Kuyipa kwa Ana a Eli
12Ana a Eli anali ana achabechabe pakuti samasamala za Yehova. 13Ndipo chizolowezi cha ansembe pakati pa anthu chinali motere kuti pamene munthu aliyense ankapereka nsembe ndipo nyama ija ikuwira pa moto, mtumiki wa wansembe ankabwera ndi chifoloko cha mano atatu mʼdzanja lake. 14Iye ankachipisa mu mʼphikamo, ndipo wansembeyo amatenga chilichonse chimene folokoyo yabaya. Umu ndi mmene ansembewo amachitira ndi Aisraeli onse amene amabwera ku Silo. 15Ndipo ngakhale mafuta asanatenthedwe, mtumiki wansembe amabwera ndi kunena kwa munthu amene akupereka nsembeyo kuti, “Ndipatse nyama kuti ndiwotche, pakuti Yehova salandira nyama yophika koma yayiwisi.”
16Ngati munthuyo anena kuti, “Apseretu mafuta poyamba, ndipo kenaka mutenge mmene mufunira,” mtumikiyo amayankha kuti, “Ayi ndipatse tsopano lino. Ngati sutero, ine nditenga molanda.”
17Tchimo la ana a Eli linali lalikulu kwambiri pamaso pa Yehova pakuti iwo amanyoza nsembe za Yehova.
18Koma Samueli amatumikira pamaso pa Yehova atavala efodi ya nsalu yofewa yosalala. 19Chaka chilichonse amayi ake ankamusokera kamkanjo ndi kukamupatsa akamapita ndi mwamuna wake kukapereka nsembe za pa chaka. 20Tsono Eli amadalitsa Elikana ndi mkazi wake ndi mawu akuti “Yehova akupatseni ana mwa mkazi uyu kulowa mʼmalo mwa amene anapempha ndi kumupereka kwa Yehova.” 21Ndipo Yehova anamukomera mtima Hana. Anakhala ndi pathupi ndi kubereka ana aamuna atatu ndi ana aakazi awiri. Ndipo Samueli ankakula pamaso pa Yehova.
22Tsono Eli anakalamba kwambiri. Iye ankamva zonse zimene ana ake aamuna ankachitira Aisraeli onse, ndiponso kuti ankagona ndi akazi pa chipata cha tenti ya msonkhano. 23Choncho anawafunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukuchita zinthu zotere? Ine ndikumva kuchokera kwa anthu onse za zoyipa zanuzo. 24Ayi, ana anga si mbiri yabwino imene ndikumva anthu a Mulungu akufalitsa. 25Ngati munthu alakwira munthu mnzake, mwina Mulungu adzamupepesera, koma ngati munthu achimwira Yehova adzamupepesera ndani?” Koma ana ake sanamvere kudzudzula kwa abambo awo, pakuti chinali cholinga cha Yehova kuti awaphe.
26Ndipo mnyamata Samueli anapitirira kukula mu msinkhu, ndipo ankapeza kuyanja pamaso pa Yehova ndi anthu.
Uneneri Wotsutsa Banja la Eli
27Tsiku lina munthu wa Mulungu anabwera kwa Eli ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Kodi Ine sindinadziwulule ndekha kwa banja la kholo lako pamene iwo anali akapolo a Farao ku Igupto? 28Ndipo ndinamusankha pakati pa mafuko a Israeli kuti akhale wansembe wanga ndi kuti azipita pa guwa langa la nsembe, kufukiza Lubani ndi kuvala efodi pamaso panga. Ndinapatsa banja la abambo ako gawo la nsembe zonse zopsereza zimene Aisraeli amapereka. 29Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukunyoza nsembe ndi zopereka zanga zimene ndinalamula? Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukupereka ulemu kwa ana ako kuposa Ine podzinenepetsa nokha ndi zopereka zabwino kwambiri za nsembe zimene Aisraeli amapereka?’ ”
30“Paja Ine Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli ‘Ndinalonjeza kuti anthu a pa banja lako ndi a pa banja la abambo ako azidzanditumikira nthawi zonse.’ Koma tsopano ndikuti, ‘Zonsezi zithe!’ Tsopano anthu amene amandilemekeza Inenso ndidzawalemekeza koma iwo amene amandinyoza Ine ndidzawanyoza. 31Nthawi ikubwera imene ndidzachotsa anyamata ako ndi anyamata a pa banja la abambo ako, kotero kuti sipadzakhala munthu wokalamba pa banja lako. 32Pa mavuto ako udzayangʼana ndi maso ansanje zabwino zimene ndidzachitira Aisraeli ena. Mʼbanja lako simudzapezeka munthu wokalamba. 33Komabe pa banja lako mmodzi yekha ndidzamuleka wosamuchotsa kuti azidzanditumikira. Iyeyu azidzakuliritsa ndi kukumvetsa chisoni. Koma ena onse pa banja lako adzafa akanali aangʼono.”
34“ ‘Ndipo chimene chidzachitike kwa ana ako awiriwa, Hofini ndi Finehasi, chidzakhala chizindikiro kwa iwe. Onse awiri adzafa pa tsiku limodzi. 35Pambuyo pake ndidzasankha wansembe wokhulupirika, amene adzachita zimene zili mu mtima ndi mʼmaganizo mwanga. Ndidzakhazikitsa banja lako kolimba ndipo adzatumikira pamaso pa wodzozedwa wanga nthawi zonse. 36Ndipo aliyense wotsala wa banja lako adzabwera ndi kugwada pamaso pake kupempha ndalama kapena chakudya.’ Adzati, ‘Chonde ndiloleni kuti ndizithandizako pa ntchito iliyonse ya unsembe kuti ndipeze chakudya.’ ”
Okusaba kwa Kaana

“Omutima gwange gusanyukira Mukama;

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;

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.

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,
naye ababi balisirisibwa mu kizikiza;
kubanga omuntu tawangula lw’amaanyi.
102:10 a Zab 2:9 b Zab 18:13 c Zab 96:13 d Zab 21:1 e Zab 89:24Abalabe ba Mukama Katonda balisaasaanyizibwa;
alibabwatukira ng’asinziira mu ggulu.
Mukama alisalira ensonda ez’ensi omusango;
aliwa kabaka we amaanyi,
era n’agulumiza amaanyi g’oyo gwe yafukako amafuta.
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.” ’ ”
