1 Samuweli 3
USamuweli: IsAmbulo sokuqala
1Indodana uSamuweli yamkhonza uJehova phambi kuka-Eli. Izwi likaJehova laliyigugu ngalezo zinsuku; kwakungekho mbono ovulekile.
2Kwathi ngaleso sikhathi u-Eli elele endaweni yakhe, namehlo akhe eqala ukuqundeka ukuba angaboni;
3Isibani sikaNkulunkulu singakacimi ethempelini likaJehova, lapho kwakukhona khona umphongolo kaNkulunkulu, uSamuweli walala ubuthongo;
4uJehova wambiza uSamuweli, wathi: “Ngilapha.”
5Wagijima waya ku-Eli, wathi: “Ngilapha; ngoba Ungibizile. Waphendula wathi: “Angibizanga; lala futhi. Wahamba walala.
6UJehova waphinda wambiza uSamuweli. USamuweli wasukuma, waya ku-Eli, wathi: “Ngilapha; ngoba Ungibizile. Wathi: “Angikubizanga, ndodana yami; lala futhi.
7USamuweli wayengakamazi uJehova, nezwi likaJehova lalingakambulelwa kuye.
8UJehova waphinda wambiza uSamuweli ngokwesithathu. Wasukuma, waya ku-Eli, wathi: “Ngilapha; ngoba Ungibizile. U-Eli waqaphela ukuthi uJehova umbizile umntwana.
9Ngakho uEli wathi kuSamuweli: Lala phansi; kuzakuthi lapho esekubiza, uthi: Khuluma, Jehova! ngoba inceku yakho iyezwa. USamuweli wahamba, walala endaweni yakhe.
10UJehova weza wema, wabiza njengakuqala, wathi: Samuweli, Samuweli! USamuweli wasesithi: Khuluma; ngoba inceku yakho iyezwa.
11UJehova wathi kuSamuweli: “Bheka, ngizakwenza into kwa-Israyeli eziyakunkeneneza ngayo izindlebe zombili zabo bonke abayizwayo.
12Ngalolo suku ngiyakumenzela u-Eli konke engikukhulume ngendlu yakhe; uma ngiqala, ngizoqeda futhi.
13Ngokuba ngimtshelile ukuthi ngiyakwahlulela indlu yakhe kuze kube phakade ngenxa yobubi abaziyo; ngoba amadodana akhe ayebaklolodela, kodwa kabavimbanga.
14Ngalokho ngafunga kuyo indlu ka-Eli ukuthi ububi bendlu ka-Eli abuyikuhlanjululwa kuze kube phakade ngomhlatshelo nangomnikelo wokudla.
15USamuweli walala kwaze kwasa, wavula iminyango yendlu kaJehova. USamuweli wesaba ukubonisa u-Eli ubuso.
16U-Eli wayesembiza uSamuweli, wathi: “Samuweli, ndodana yami! Wathi: “Ngilapha.”
17Wathi: “Yini izwi uJehova alikhuluma kini na?” Ngicela ungangifihleli; UNkulunkulu uyakwenza lokhu kuwe, nangaphezulu uma ungifihlela okuthile kukho konke akutshele kona.
18USamuweli wamtshela konke, akamfihlelanga lutho. Wathi: “NguJehova; makenze lokho akubona kufanele.
19USamuweli wakhula, uJehova wayenaye, akavumelanga ukuba kuwele phansi nelilodwa lamazwi akhe.
20Wonke u-Israyeli kusukela kwaDani kuze kube seBeri Sheba wazi ukuthi uSamuweli uqinisiwe ukuba abe umprofethi kaJehova.
21UJehova wabuye wabonakala eShilo, ngokuba uJehova wazibonakalisa kuSamuweli eShilo ngezwi likaJehova.
