1 Sa:miuele 4
1 Amo esoha Filisidini fi dunu ilia da Isala: ili fi dunuma gegena masusa: wa: le asi. Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu da dabe gegemusa: gilisilalu. Isala: ili dunu ilia Ebenisa soge gadenene ilia ha wa: i fisisu gagui. Amola Filisidini dunu ilia da A: ifege moilai bai bagadega ha wa: i fisisu gagui.
And the word of Samuel became known to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ha'ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
2 Filisidini dunu ilia da Isala: ili dunuma doagala: le, bagadewane susa: ili gegei. Gegei da geala asili, fa: no ba: loba, Isala: ili dunu da bagadewane fefedei gia: i ba: i. Isala: ili dunu da 4000 agoane bogogia: i dagoi ba: i.
And the Philistines put themselves in battle-array against Israel; and the battle became general, and Israel was smitten before the Philistines: and they slew on the battle-ground, in the field, about four thousand men.
3 Amalalu, Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu hame bogoi esalebe da Isala: ili ilia ha wa: i fisisu bu manoba, Isala: ili ouligisu dunu ilia da amane sia: i, “Abuliba: le Hina Gode da Filisidini dunu ninima hasalasima: ne wali logo doasibala: ? Be wali ninia da Siailou moilaiga asili, Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili lale, amalu ninia da amo gisawene gilisili gegena masunu. Amasea, Hina Gode da ninia ha lai ninima mae hasalasima: ne gaga: mu.”
And when the people were come back into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath the Lord smitten us this day before the Philistines? Let us bring over to us out of Shiloh the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that it may come in the midst of us, and deliver us out of the hand of our enemies.
4 Amaiba: le, ilia Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili (amo ea bai da fedege Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea gadodafa ida: iwane Fisu), amo gisa misa: ne asunasi. Ilia da amo Gagili gisa manoba, Ilai egefela Hofinai amola Finia: se da oule misi.
So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought away from there the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts, who dwelleth over the cherubim: and the two sons of 'Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
5 Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili da gisa misini doaga: loba, Isala: ili dunu huluane da ha: giwane nodone wele sia: beba: le, osobo bagade da fogoi.
And it happened when the ark of the covenant of the Lord came into the camp, that all Israel set up a great shout, so that the earth trembled.
6 Filisidini dunu ilia da Hina Godema nodosu sia: amo huhududabe agoai amo nababeba: le, amane sia: i, “Nabima! Hibulu ha wa: i fisisu huhududabe goma. Gomo da abolebela: ?” Ilia da nabagaloba Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Gagili da Hibulu ha wa: i fisisu gisa misi sia: be nababeba: le,
And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shouting, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.
7 ilia da bagade beda: i galu. Ilia da amane sia: i, ‘gode’ afae da ilia ha wa: i fisisuga doaga: i dagoi. Ninimone da wadela: mu wea! Agoaiwane hou ninima da musa: hame doaga: i.
And the Philistines were afraid; for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for the like of this hath not been, yesterday or the day before.
8 Ilia ‘gode’lali da gasa bagadeba: le, ninimone da nowa gaga: ma: bela: ? Amo ‘gode’lali da hafoga: i sogega Idibidi dunu huluane medole legei.
Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with every plague in the wilderness.
9 Filisidini dunu! Gasa fima: i! Hame amaiada, Hibulu dunu ilia da ninia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalebe ba: i. Amo defele ninia da ilia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu agoai esaloma: bela: ? Amasa: besa: gini gasa fili, nimiwane gegema!”
Be strong, and act like men, O Philistines, so that ye become not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: therefore act like men, and fight.
10 Filisidini dunu ili da gasa filiwane gegebeba: le, Isala: ili dunu osa: la heda: i dagoi. Isala: ili dunu mogili da ilia diasuga hobeale afia: i. Amalu ba: loba, dunu fai bogogia: i da bagadedafa ba: i. Isala: ili dunu da ba: loba, 30,000 agoane bogogia: i dagoi ba: i.
And the Philistines fought, and the Israelites were smitten, and they fled every man unto his tent: and the defeat was very great; and there fell of Israel thirty thousand men on foot.
11 Filisidini dunu da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili samogei dagoi. Amola Ilai egefela Hofenai amola Finia: se, ela da ele galu medole legei dagoi ba: i.
And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of 'Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, died also.
12 Bediamini fi dunu afae da gegesu soge fisili, amogalamusu hobeale hehenaia ahoana, Siailou moilaiga doaga: i. Ea da: i dioi dawa: digima: ne, e da abula gadelai amola dialuma da: iya osobo duduli gala: i ba: i.
And there ran a man of Benjamin from the battlefield, and came to Shiloh on the same day, with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head.
13 E da doaga: le ba: loba, Ilai da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo fawane bagade dada: wa: sa, logo bega: hi fisu fafai da: iya fili, si godonasia sosodosa esalebe ba: i. Amo dunu da amo fefedei sia: moilai fi dunuma sisia: i lai. Amalalu, dunu huluane beda: ga bulili didigia: i.
And when he came, lo, 'Eli was sitting upon a chair by the wayside watching; for his heart was anxious for the ark of God. And when the man came to tell it in the city, all the city cried out.
14 Ilai da amo bulibi nababeba: le, e da amane adole ba: i, “Gomo da abuliga sia: gomo wali heda: sala: ?” Amo dunu da Ilaima amo sia: adomusa: hedolowane hehenai.
And when 'Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What meaneth the noise of this multitude? And the man came in hastily, and told it to 'Eli.
15 (Ilai da ode98gadenenewane gidigimuba: le, ea si da gadenenewane dofoidafa.)
Now 'Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were fixed, so that he could not see.
16 Amo dunu da Ilaima amane sia: i, “Na da gegenanua amonini wali hobeale misi wea.” Ilai da ema adole ba: i, “Nagofe! Abuli hamoi!”
And the man said unto 'Eli, I am the person that came from the battlefield, and I myself fled from the battlefield today. And he said, What was it that took place, my son?
17 Sia: adola ahoasu dunu da amane sia: i, “Isala: ili dunu da Filisidini dunu amoba: le hobeale afia: i. Amo gegesu da ninima hasalasidafa. Amogalu, dia gofela Hofenai amola Finia: sela da fai bogoi dagoi, amola Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili da ha lai dunuga fedei dagoi ba: i.”
And the messenger answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath also been a great slaughter among the people, and also thy two sons, Chophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God hath been taken.
18 Be amo dunu da Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili amo ha lai dunuga fedei sia: beba: le, Ilai da baliguduli muwane sa: ili, logo holei bega: gala: la sa: i. E da da: i hamoi amola basuluiba: le, ea mugi dugini gala: le, e bogoi. E da Isala: ili soge amo ganodini ode 40 agoane bisisu dunu esalu.
And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the chair backward by the side of the gate, and his neck was broken, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
19 Ilai egefe Finia: se idua da abula aguiba: le, mano lalelegemu da gadenei ba: i. E da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo da fedelai dagoi amola ea nawi Ilai amola egoa Finia: se da bogoi dagoi nababeba: le, e da hedolowane asili, mano lamusa: se nabalu, mano lalelegei.
And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings concerning that the ark of God had been taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she sank down and gave birth; for her pains came suddenly upon her.
20 E da sega bogolaloba, ea fidisu uda ilia ema amane sia: i, “Di mae beda: ma! Be di da dunu mano lalelegei dagoi.” Be e da mae nabawene amola ilia sia: hame alofei.
And at the moment of her dying, the women that stood around her spoke [unto her], Fear not; for a son hast thou born. But she answered not, nor did she take it to heart.
21 E da mano amo ea dio Igabode asuli. Amo dio ea dawa: loma: ne da “Gode Ea hadigi da Isala: ili fi fisiagai.” Bai Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili da ha lai dunuga fedei dagoi, amola ea nawi amola egoa da bogoi, amo e dawa: beba: le sia: i.
And she named the child I-chabod, saying, Glory is departed from Israel; because of the taking away of the ark of God, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 E amane sia: i, “Gode Ea hadigi da Isala: ili fi fisiagai dagoi. Bai Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili da fedei dagoi ba: i.”
And she said, Glory is departed from Israel; for the ark of God hath been taken away.
