< 1 Samuel 4 >

1 Samuel ih lok to Israel kaminawk boih khaeah amthang. Israel kaminawk loe Philistinnawk tuk hanah caeh o moe, Ebenezer taengah atai o; toe Philistinnawk loe Aphek ah atai o.
Neno la Samweli likawafikia Israeli wote. Basi Israeli wakatoka kupigana dhidi ya Wafilisti. Nao wakaweka kambi hapo Ebenezeri, na Wafilisti waliweka kambi yao huko Afeki.
2 Philistinnawk loe Israel kaminawk to tuk hanah amsak o: misa a tuk o naah Israel kaminawk to pazawk o; misatukhaih ahmuen ah nihcae mah Israel kaminawk sang palito hum pae o.
Nao Wafilisti walijipanga kwa ajili ya vita dhidi ya Waisraeli. Vita ilipopamba moto, Israeli ilishindwa na Wafilisti, wakauawa watu wapatao elfu nne kwenye uwanja wa vita.
3 Ataihaih ahmuen hoiah kaminawk amlaem o naah, Israel kacoehtanawk mah, Tipongah vaihniah Angraeng mah Philistinnawk hmaa ah misa ang sungsak? tiah lok angdueng o. Shiloh vangpui ih Angraeng ih thingkhong to aimacae khaeah sin o si, to tiah nahaeloe thingkhong mah misa ban thung hoiah na loisak tih, tiah a thuih o.
Watu walipokuja kambini, wazee wa Israeli walisema, “Kwa nini BWANA ametushinda leo mbele ya Wafilisti? Hebu tulilete hapa sanduku la ushuhuda wa BWANA kutoka Shilo, ili kwamba liwe hapa pamoja nasi, ili litufanye tuwe salama kutokana na nguvu za maadui zetu.”
4 To pongah Cherubim salakah kaom, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw ih lokkamhaih thingkhong to sin hanah, Shiloh vangpui ah kami to patoeh o; Eli capa Hophni hoi Phinehas loe Sithaw ih thingkhong ohhaih ahmuen ah oh hoi.
Hivyo waliwatuma watu huko Shilo; kutokea huko walilibeba sanduku la ushuhuda wa BWANA wa majeshi, akaaye juu ya makerubi. Hofni na Finehasi, watoto wawili wa Eli, walikuwapo pamoja na lile sanduku la ushuhuda wa Mungu.
5 Nihcae ataihaih ahmuen ah Angraeng ih thingkhong phak naah, Israel kaminawk loe long anghuen khoek to a hang o.
Sanduku la ushuhuda wa BWANA lilipofika kambini, watu wote wa Israeli walipiga yowe, na nchi ikavuma.
6 Nihcae hanghaih lok Philistin kaminawk mah thaih o naah, Tipongah Hebru kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen hoiah hae tih khoek to a hang o vai? tiah a thuih o. To pacoengah nihcae ataihaih ahmuen ah Angraeng ih thingkhong phak boeh, tiah nihcae mah panoek o.
Wafilisti waliposikia kelele za mayowe, wakasema, “sauti hii ya mayowe katika kambi ya Waebrania inamaanisha nini?” Baadaye walitambua kwamba sanduku la BWANA limefika kambini.
7 To pongah Philistin kaminawk loe zit o; nihcae mah, Sithaw loe nihcae ataihaih ahmuen ah phak boeh. Aicae loe khosak bing boeh! Hae baktih hmuen hae canghniah om vai ai vop.
Wafilisti waliogopa sana, “Mungu ameingia kambini.” Wakasema, “Ole wetu! Jambo kama hili halijawahi kutokea huko nyuma!
8 Khosak bing boeh! Hae thacak Sithawnawk ih ban thung hoiah mi mah maw aicae hae pahlong thai tih? Hae Sithawnawk loe praezaek ah Izip kaminawk nathaih hoiah hum Sithaw ah oh o.
Ole wetu! Ni nani atatulinda dhidi ya nguvu za Mungu mwenye uwezo? Huyu ndiye Mungu aliyewashambulia Wamisri kwa aina tofauti za mapigo mengi jangwani.
9 Aw Philistinnawk, Israel kaminawk loe nangcae ih misong ah oh o baktih toengah, Hebru kaminawk ih misong ah a oh o han ai ah, thacak o sak loe, nongpa baktiah om oh, nongpa baktiah thacak o sak loe, misa to tuh oh, tiah a thuih o.
Enyi Wafilisti, iweni hodari, na fanyeni kiume, vinginevyo mtakuwa watumwa wa Waebrabia, kama walivyokuwa watumwa wenu. Fanyeni kiume, na piganeni nao.”
10 To tiah Philistinnawk loe misatuk o; to naah Israel kaminawk sung o moe, angmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah cawnh o; kami paroeai hum pae o; khok hoi misatuh Israel kaminawk sang quithumto duek o.
Wafilisti walipigana, na Waisraeli wakashindwa. Kila mtu alikimbilia nyumbani kwake, na mauaji yalikuwa makubwa sana; maana askari wa Israeli elfu thelathini waendao kwa miguu vitani, walianguka.
11 Sithaw ih thingkhong to misanawk mah lak pae o ving; Eli capa Hophni hoi Phinehas doeh duek hoi hmaek.
Lile sanduku la Mungu lilichukuliwa, na watoto wa Eli, Hofni na Finehasi waliuawa.
12 To na niah Benjamin acaeng maeto loe misa angtukhaih ahmuen hoiah cawnh moe, Shiloh vangpui to a phak; a khukbuen doeh prawn boih boeh moe, a lu doeh maiphu cing ah oh.
Mtu mmoja wa Benjamini alikimbia kutoka uwanja wa vita akaja Shilo siku iyo hiyo, aliwasili na mavazi yake yamechanika na matope kichwani pake.
13 Anih to ah phak naah, Eli loe loklam taengah anghnuthaih tangkhang nuiah anghnut; Sithaw ih thingkhong to mawnhaih palung hoiah a zing; to kami vangpui thungah akun moe, tamthang a thuih pae naah, avang boih qah o.
Alipofika, Eli alikuwa amekaa kitini pake karibu na barabara akitazama kwa sababu moyo wake ulitetemeka kwa ajili ya sanduku la Mungu. Mtu yule alipoingia mjini na kutoa taarifa, mji wote ulilia.
14 Eli mah kaminawk qahhaih lok to thaih naah, Tipongah hae tiah qahhaih lok to oh? tiah a dueng. To kami loe karangah cawnh moe, Eli khaeah, tamthang to thuih pae.
Eli aliposikia kelele ya kilio kile, alisema, “Kilio hicho kina maana gani?” Kwa haraka mtu yule alikuja na kumweleza Eli.
15 Anih loe saning quitakawtto oh boeh; a mik amtueng ai boeh pongah, kho hnu thai ai boeh.
Basi Eli alikuwa na umri wa miaka tisini na nane; macho yake yamepofuka, na hakuweza kuona.
16 Anih mah Eli khaeah, Kai loe misatukhaih ahmuen hoiah angzo kami, vaihniah misa angtukhaih ahmuen hoiah kacawn kami ah ka oh, tiah a naa. Eli mah, Ka ca, misatukhaih kawng kawbangmaw oh? tiah a dueng.
Yule mtu akamwambia Eli, “Mimi ndiye nimechomoka kutoka vitani. Nimetoroka kutoka kwenye mapigano leo.” Eli akasema, “Mambo yalienda namna gani, mwanangu?”
17 Misa puenhaih hoi angzo kami mah, Israel kaminawk loe Philistin kaminawk hmaa hoiah cawnh o, paroeai misatuh kaminawk doeh duek o; na capa Hophni hoi Phinehas hnik doeh duek hoi hmaek boeh; Sithaw ih thingkhong doeh misanawk mah lak o ving boeh, tiah a naa.
Yule mtu aliyeleta hizo habari alijibu na kusema, “Israeli wamewakimbia Wafilisti. Pia watu wengi wameuwawa. Watoto wako, Hofni na Finehasi, wamekufa, na sanduku la Mungu limechukuliwa.”.
18 Sithaw ih thingkhong kawng a thuih pae naah, Eli loe khongkha taeng anghnuthaih ahmuen hoiah hnukbang ah amtimh kawngh; tahnong angkhaeh poek moe, a duek. Anih loe mitong boeh pongah, takpum doeh azit parai boeh. Anih mah Israel kaminawk saning quipalito thung zaehhoih.
Alipotamka sanduku la Mungu, Eli alianguka chali kutoka kwenye kiti chake karibu na mlango. akavunjika shingo lake, na kufariki, kwa sababu alikuwa mzee tena mzito. Naye alikuwa mwamuzi wa Israeli kwa miaka arobaini.
19 Anih ih langah Phinehas ih zu loe, zokpom moe, nawkta oh tom boeh; anih mah, misanawk mah Sithaw ih thingkhong lak o ving boeh moe, amqang hoi a sava doeh duek boeh ti, tiah tamthang thaih naah, nawkta oh hanah zoknat pae pongah, zok kana patanghaih hoiah a oh.
Basi mkwewe, mke wa Finihasi, alikuwa mjamzito akikaribia kujifungua. aliposikia habari kwamba sanduku la Mungu limetekwa nyara na kwamba baba mkwe na mme wake wamefariki, alichuchumaa chini akajifungua, lakini utungu wake ulimzidi na ulimtaabisha sana.
20 Anih duek tom naah, anih khenzawnkung nongpatanawk mah, Palung boengsak hmah; capa nongpa na sak boeh, tiah a naa o. Toe anih mah lok pathim pae thai ai, tidoeh sah thai ai boeh.
Alipokaribia kufariki, wanawake waliokuwa wakimhudumia walisema, “Usiogope, maana umejifungua mtoto wa kiume.” Lakini hakuwajibu lolote au kuzingatia alichoambiwa.
21 Angraeng lensawkhaih mah Israel to caehtaak ving boeh; Sithaw ih thingkhong doeh misa mah lak ving boeh moe, anih ih amqang hoi a sava doeh duek hoi hmaek boeh pongah, a capa nongpa to, Ikhabod, tiah ahmin sak.
Akamwita mtoto Ikabodi, akisema, “Utukufu umetoweka Israeli!” Kwa sababu sanduku la Mungu limetekwa nyara, na kwa sababu ya kifo cha baba mkwe na mme wake.
22 Misa mah Sithaw ih thingkhong lak ving boeh pongah, lensawkhaih mah Israel to caehtaak ving boeh, tiah a thuih.
Na alisema, “Utukufu umetoweka kutoka Israeli, kwa sababu sanduku la Mungu limetekwa nyala.”
