1 Samuel 5
1 Now the Philistines had taken the ark of God, and they brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.
Kane jo-Filistia osekawo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne gigole Ebeneza mi gitere Ashdod.
2 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
Eka negitingʼo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye mi gitero ei hekalu mar Dagon kendo negikete bath Dagon.
3 And when those of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
Kane jo-Ashdod ochiewo kinyne gokinyi mangʼich negiyudo ka Dagon, nogore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye! Negichungo Dagon mi gidwoke kare.
4 And when they arose early on the morning of the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah, and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands lay cut off upon the threshold. Only the stump of Dagon was left to him.
To chiengʼ mar ariyo gokinyi kane gichiewo, negiyudo Dagon kanyo kosegore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Wiye gi lwetene ne osetur kendo ne ni e ndiri, dende kende ema ne odongʼ.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any who come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod, to this day.
Mano ema omiyo nyaka chil kawuono jodolo mag Dagon kata mana ngʼama donjo e hekalu mar Dagon e Ashdod ok nyon ndiri.
6 But the hand of Jehovah was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with tumors, even Ashdod and the borders of it.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye nosando jo-Ashdod kod kuonde machiegni kodgi, noketo luoro kuomgi, bende nogoyogi gi tuo mar buche.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us, for his hand is hard upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
Kane jo-Ashdod oneno gima ne timore, negiwacho niya, “Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kik bed kodwa ka, nikech lwete osesandowa kaachiel gi Dagon ma nyasachwa.”
8 They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel there.
Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia ma gipenjogi niya, “Watim angʼo gi Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel?” Mine gidwoko niya, “Kawuru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel uter Gath.” Kamano negigolo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel.
9 And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of Jehovah was against the city with a very great discomfiture. And he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and tumors broke out upon them.
Bangʼ kane gisegole, Jehova Nyasaye nokelo chandruok ne dala maduongʼno momiyo luoro malich omakogi. Ne ogoyo jomatindo gi jomadongo mar dala maduongʼno gi tuo buche.
10 So they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people.
Omiyo ne gitero Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye Ekron. Kane Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye nidonjogo Ekron, jo-Ekron noywak kawacho niya, “Gisekelo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kuomwa mondo onegwa kaachiel gi jowa.”
11 They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and they said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it not kill us and our people. For there was a deadly discomfiture throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia mi giwachonegi niya, “Goluru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel; dwokeuru kare owuon, ka ok kamano to obiro negowa kaachiel gi jowa.” Nikech tho nosepongʼo dala maduongʼ gi kihondko; lwet Nyasaye nosandogi ahinya.
12 And the men who did not die were smitten with the tumors, and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
Joma ne ok otho to tuo buche nomako kendo ywak mar dala maduongʼno nochopo nyaka e polo.
