| Hata Samweli alipokuwa mzee, aliwafanya wanawe wawe waamuzi juu ya Israeli. 1 Samweli 8:1 |
It happened, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel. |
| Na jina la mwanawe mzaliwa wa kwanza aliitwa Yoeli; na jina la wa pili Abiya; walikuwa waamuzi katika Beer-sheba. 1 Samweli 8:2 |
Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abijah: they were judges in Beersheba. |
| Ila wanawe hawakuenda katika njia zake, bali waliziacha, ili wapate faida; wakapokea rushwa, na kupotosha hukumu. 1 Samweli 8:3 |
His sons didn't walk in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted justice. |
| Ndipo wazee wote wa Israeli wakakutana pamoja, wakamwendea Samweli huko Rama; 1 Samweli 8:4 |
Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel to Ramah; |
| wakamwambia, Angalia, wewe umekuwa mzee, na wanao hawaendi katika njia zako; basi, tufanyie mfalme atuamue, mfano wa mataifa yote. 1 Samweli 8:5 |
and they said to him, Behold, you are old, and your sons don't walk in your ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations. |
| Lakini neno hilo likawa baya machoni pa Samweli, waliposema, Tupe mfalme atuamue. Naye Samweli akamwomba Bwana. 1 Samweli 8:6 |
But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. Samuel prayed to Yahweh. |
| Bwana akamwambia Samweli, Isikilize sauti ya watu hawa katika kila neno watakalokuambia; kwa maana hawakukukataa wewe, bali wamenikataa mimi, ili nisiwe mfalme juu yao. 1 Samweli 8:7 |
Yahweh said to Samuel, Listen to the voice of the people in all that they tell you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them. |
| Kwa kadiri ya matendo yote waliyonitenda tokea siku ile nilipowatoa katika Misri hata leo, kwa kuniacha mimi, na kwa kutumikia miungu mingine, ndivyo wanavyokutenda wewe. 1 Samweli 8:8 |
According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even to this day, in that they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also to you. |
| Basi sasa, isikilize sauti yao; walakini, uwaonye sana, na kuwaonyesha desturi ya mfalme atakayewamiliki. 1 Samweli 8:9 |
Now therefore listen to their voice: however you shall protest solemnly to them, and shall show them the manner of the king who shall reign over them. |
| Naye Samweli akawaambia wale watu waliotaka mfalme maneno yote ya Bwana. 1 Samweli 8:10 |
Samuel told all the words of Yahweh to the people who asked of him a king. |
| Akasema, Mfalme atakayewamiliki ninyi atakuwa na desturi hii; atatwaa wana wenu na kuwaweka kwake, kwa magari yake, na kuwa wapanda farasi wake; nao watapiga mbio mbele ya magari yake. 1 Samweli 8:11 |
He said, This will be the manner of the king who shall reign over you: he will take your sons, and appoint them to him, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and they shall run before his chariots; |
| Naye atawaweka kwake kuwa maakida juu ya elfu, na maakida juu ya hamsini; na wengine atawaweka walime shamba lake, na kuvuna mavuno yake, na kufanyiza zana zake za vita, na vyombo vya magari yake. 1 Samweli 8:12 |
and he will appoint them to him for captains of thousands, and captains of fifties; and [he will set some] to plow his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and the instruments of his chariots. |
| Na binti zenu atawatwaa kuwa wafanyaji wa marhamu, na wapishi, na waokaji. 1 Samweli 8:13 |
He will take your daughters to be perfumers, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. |
| Atatwaa makonde yenu, na mashamba yenu ya mizabibu, na ya mizeituni, yale yaliyo mazuri sana, ili awape watumishi wake. 1 Samweli 8:14 |
He will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive groves, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. |
| Naye atawatoza ushuru wa mbegu zenu na wa mizabibu yenu, awape maakida wake, na watumishi Wake. 1 Samweli 8:15 |
He will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. |
| Atawatwaa watumishi wenu na wajakazi wenu, na ng'ombe zenu walio wazuri sana, na punda zenu, naye atawatia katika kazi zake mwenyewe. 1 Samweli 8:16 |
He will take your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and your best young men, and your donkeys, and put them to his work. |
| Atawatoza fungu la kumi la makundi yenu; nanyi mtakuwa watumwa wake. 1 Samweli 8:17 |
He will take the tenth of your flocks: and you shall be his servants. |
| Nanyi mtalia siku ile kwa sababu ya mfalme wenu mliyejichagulia; Bwana asiwajibu siku ile. 1 Samweli 8:18 |
You shall cry out in that day because of your king whom you shall have chosen you; and Yahweh will not answer you in that day. |
| Walakini hao watu wakakataa kuisikiliza sauti ya Samweli; wakasema, Sivyo hivyo; lakini tunataka kuwa na mfalme juu yetu; 1 Samweli 8:19 |
But the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel; and they said, No: but we will have a king over us, |
| ili sisi nasi tufanane na mataifa yote; tena ili mfalme wetu atuamue, tena atoke mbele yetu na kutupigia vita vyetu. 1 Samweli 8:20 |
that we also may be like all the nations, and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles. |
| Samweli akayasikia maneno yote ya watu, akayanena masikioni mwa Bwana. 1 Samweli 8:21 |
Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of Yahweh. |
| Bwana akamwambia Samweli, Isikilize sauti yao, ukawafanyie mfalme. Kisha Samweli akawaambia watu wa Israeli, Enendeni kila mtu mjini kwake. 1 Samweli 8:22 |
Yahweh said to Samuel, Listen to their voice, and make them a king. Samuel said to the men of Israel, Go you every man to his city. |
