1 Weche Mag Ndalo 10
1 Koro jo-Filistia ne kedo gi jo-Israel kendo jo-Israel noringo e nyimgi kendo joma ngʼeny nonegi e Got Gilboa.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
2 Jo-Filistia nolawo Saulo gi yawuote matek ma neginego yawuote magin Jonathan, Abinadab kod Malki-Shua.
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
3 Lweny nobedo mager kama Saulo ne nitie kendo kane jodir asere ojuke, to ne gihinye.
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
4 Saulo nowacho ni jatingʼne gige lweny niya, “Wuodh liganglani mondo inega nono to joma ok oter nyangigi biro nega kendo yanya.” To jatingʼne gige lweny ne luoro omako kendo ne ok onyal timo kamano, omiyo Saulo nokawo liganglane owuon mochwoworego.
Then said Saul to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
5 Kane jatingʼ gige lweny oneno ka Saulo osetho en bende nokawo liganglane mochwoworego motho kode.
And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
6 Kamano, Saulo gi yawuote adek kod joode duto notho kaachiel.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
7 Kane jo-Israel duto mane nitie e holo noneno ka jolweny oseringo, kendo ni Saulo gi yawuote bende nosetho, negijwangʼo miechgi ma giringo. Kendo jo-Filistia nobiro modak e miechgigo.
And when all the men of Israel that [were] in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
8 Kinyne kane jo-Filistia obiro mondo oyak gige joma otho, negiyudo Saulo gi yawuote kotho e Got Gilboa.
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
9 Ne gilonyo lepe kendo ne gikaw wiye gi gige mag lweny, bangʼe negioro joote e piny jo-Filistia duto mondo oter wach ne nyisechegi kendo ni jopinygi.
And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings unto their idols, and to the people.
10 Negiketo gige mag lweny e hekalu mar nyisechegi, to wiye, to negiliero e hekalu mar Dagon.
And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
11 Kane jo-Jabesh Gilead nowinjo gik moko duto mane jo-Filistia osetimo ni Saulo,
And when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 thuondigi duto nodhi mokawo ringre Saulo kod ringre yawuote ma gikelogi Jabesh. Eka ne giyiko chokegi e tiend yien maduongʼ mar ober man Jabesh, bangʼe to negitweyo chiemo kuom ndalo abiriyo.
They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 Saulo notho nikech ne ok orito singruokne gi Jehova Nyasaye. Ne ok orito chike Jehova Nyasaye, kendo nodhi mana ir jo-nyakalondo mondo onyise wach,
So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, [even] against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking [counsel] of [one that had] a familiar spirit, to enquire [of it; ]
14 kar penjo Jehova Nyasaye wach. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nonege mokawo loch omiyo Daudi wuod Jesse.
And enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
