Akɛni beni Israelbii lɛ jɛɔ Mizraim kɛbaa lɛ Amalekbii lɛ yatutua amɛ beni amɛfeko nɔ ko lɛ hewɔ lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ lomɔ Amalekbii lɛ.

(Koj. 3:12, 13; 6:1-3, 33) No hewɔ lɛ, Yehowa kpɛ eyiŋ akɛ ebaagbala amɛtoi, ni efã Saul ni ekpata amɛhiɛ.—1 Sam. 15:1-3.\nYɛ nɔ najiaŋ ni Saul baabo Yehowa fãmɔ akɛ ekpata Amalekbii ni yitseiaŋ wala lɛ kɛ amɛ nɔ fɛɛ nɔ hiɛ lɛ toi lɛ, emɔ amɛmaŋtsɛ lɛ, ni ebaa amɛkooloi ni hi fe fɛɛ lɛ ayi. Mɛni ba beni Samuel bi Saul sane yɛ nɔ ni efee lɛ he lɛ? Saul bɔ mɔdɛŋ akɛ ekɛ shwamɔ lɛ afɔ̃ mɛi krokomɛi anɔ, ni ekɛɛ akɛ: “Maŋ lɛ baa tooi kɛ tsinai ni hi fe fɛɛ lɛ ayi, koni amɛkɛbashã afɔle amɛha Yehowa.” Kɛji Saul to eyiŋ lɛɛlɛŋ akɛ ekɛ kooloi lɛ baashã afɔle jio, jeee nakai ji eyiŋtoo jio lɛ, egbo toi. Saul enaaa ehe akɛ ‘eji bibioo yɛ lɛ diɛŋtsɛ ehiɛ’ dɔŋŋ. No hewɔ lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ gbalɔ lɛ ha Saul na akɛ egbo Nyɔŋmɔ nɔ toi. Kɛkɛ Samuel kɛɛ lɛ akɛ: “Ani Yehowa náa shãa afɔlei kɛ gbee afɔlei ahe tsui tamɔ Yehowa gbee toiboo lo? Naa, toiboo hi fe afɔle . . . Gbii abɔ ni okwa Yehowa wiemɔ lɛ nɛɛ, lɛ hu ekwao maŋtsɛ lɛ yeli!”—1 Sam. 15:15, 17, 22, 23.\nBeni Yehowa jie emumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ lɛ kɛ ejɔɔmɔ kɛjɛ Saul nɔ lɛ, “mumɔ fɔŋ ko” bɔi Israel klɛŋklɛŋ maŋtsɛ lɛ haomɔ. Agbɛnɛ Saul bɔi David—nuu ni sɛɛ mli lɛ Yehowa kɛ maŋtsɛyeli lɛ baaha lɛ lɛ—he awuŋayeli, ni enáaa David he jwɛŋmɔ kpakpa hu. Saul ka shii abɔ akɛ ebaagbe David. Biblia lɛ kɛɔ akɛ, beni Saul na akɛ “Yehowa kɛ David yɛ” lɛ, “Saul tsɔ David henyɛlɔ egbii lɛ fɛɛ.” Saul bɔ mɔdɛŋ akɛ egbɔbi David, ni efã po ni agbe osɔfoi 85 kɛ mɛi krokomɛi hu. Ebɛ naakpɛɛ mɔ akɛ, Yehowa kwa Saul!—1 Sam. 16:14; 18:11, 25, 28, 29; 19:10, 11; 20:32, 33; 22:16-19.\nBeni Filistibii lɛ batutua Israel ekoŋŋ lɛ, Saul yabi yelikɛbuamɔ kɛjɛ mumɔi atsɛlɔ ko dɛŋ, shi efee yaka. Enɔjetsɛremɔ lɛ, apila lɛ waa yɛ ta mli, ni egbe ehe.
