1 Hot patetlah Filistinnaw ni Isarelnaw hah a tuk awh teh, Isarelnaw teh Filistinnaw hmalah a yawng awh teh, Gilboa mon vah a thei awh.
AmaFilistiya alwa lo-Israyeli; abako-Israyeli babaleka, njalo abanengi bafela eNtabeni yase Gilibhowa.
2 Filistin taminaw ni Sawl hoi a capa hah poe a pâlei awh teh, Sawl capa Jonathan hoi Abinadab hoi Malkhishua hah a thei awh.
AmaFilistiya axotshana kanzima loSawuli kanye lamadodana akhe, abulala amadodana akhe uJonathani, lo-Abhinadabi kanye loMalikhi-Shuwa.
3 Sawl hah pueng hoi rek a saueng awh teh, pala kapatuemnaw ni a ma hah rek a pha awh teh, hmâ puenghoi a ca sak awh.
Impi yatshisa macele wonke kuSawuli, njalo kwathi abatshoki bemitshoko sebemxhumile, bamlimaza kubi.
4 Hot patetlah Sawl ni amae senehmaica ka sin koe, na tahloi hah rayu nateh, poukkayawng lah na thun leih. Hottelah na tet hoehpawiteh, vuensom ka a hoehnaw ni na pacekpahlek awh langvaih atipouh. Hatei, senehmaica ka sin e ni, thun ngai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a taki poung. Hat torei teh, Sawl ni a tahloi hah a la teh a tabo sin.
USawuli wathi kumthwali wezikhali zakhe, “Hwatsha inkemba yakho ungigwaze, hlezi abantu laba abangasokanga bafike bangigwaze bangenze ihlazo.” Kodwa umphathi wezikhali zakhe wesaba, akaze akwenza lokho; ngakho uSawuli wathatha inkemba yakhe waziwisela phezu kwayo.
5 Hahoi senehmaica ka sin e tami ni Sawl a due e hah a hmu toteh, ahni ni hai a tahloi a tabo sin van teh, cungtalah a due roi.
Kwathi umphathi wezikhali ebona ukuthi uSawuli wayesefile, laye waziwisela phezu kwenkemba yakhe wafa kanye laye.
6 Hot patetlah Sawl hoi a capa kathum touh hoi senehmaica ka sin e hoi a taminaw pueng hoi hot hnin roeroe vah a due awh.
Ngakho uSawuli lamadodana akhe amathathu lomphathi wezikhali zakhe kanye labantu bakhe bonke bafa ndawonye ngalo lolosuku.
7 Ravo namran lah kaawm e Isarelnaw hoi Jordan namran lah kaawmnaw ni Isarelnaw a sung awh toe tie hoi Sawl hoi a capanaw a due awh toe tie a thai awh toteh, kho a tâco takhai awh teh a yawng awh. Hahoi Filistinnaw ni rek ao sin awh.
Kwathi abako-Israyeli ababesekele isigodi lalabo ababengaphetsheya kweJodani bebona ukuthi ibutho lako-Israyeli lalibalekile lokuthi uSawuli kanye lamadodana akhe basebefile, batshiya imizi yabo babaleka. AmaFilistiya afika ahlala kuyo.
8 Hahoi teh, Filistinnaw ni a thei awh nae tangtho vah, senehmaica ka sin e a cei sin awh navah, Sawl hoi a capa kathum touh Gilboa mon koe a due awh e hah a hmu awh.
Ngelanga elalandelayo, amaFilistiya esefikile ukuba akhuthuze abafileyo, afica uSawuli lamadodana akhe amathathu befile eNtabeni yase Gilibhowa.
9 A lû a tâtueng pouh teh senehmaica a rading pouh awh. A kamthaw nah meikaphawk bawknae bawkim tangkuem hoi taminaw pueng koe pathang hanelah Filistin ram pueng dawk a pathang awh.
Amquma ikhanda lakhe athatha lezikhali zakhe, basebethuma izithunywa kulolonke ilizwe lamaFilistiya ukuthi zimemezele lindaba ethempelini lezithombe zawo lasebantwini bakibo.
10 Hote senehmaica teh, Ashtaroth im vah a ta awh. A ro teh Bethshan kalupnae tapang dawk a vo awh.
Abeka izikhali zakhe ethempelini lama-Ashithorethi. Kwathi isidumbu sakhe asibethela emdulini weBhethi-Shani.
11 Jabesh Gilead vah kaawmnaw ni Filistinnaw ni Sawl ro dawk a sak awh e a hmu awh toteh,
Kwathi abantu baseJabheshi Giliyadi sebezwile ngokwakwenziwe ngamaFilistiya kuSawuli,
12 Tami tarankahawi poung ni a thaw teh, karum khodai a cei awh teh, Bethshan kalupnae tapang dawk e Sawl hoi a capanaw ro hah a la awh. Jabesh a pha awh toteh, hawvah a pâeng awh.

Athatha amathambo abo awembela ngaphansi kwesihlahla somthamarisiki eJabheshi, asezila insuku eziyisikhombisa.
