1 Samuel 4
1 And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ezer: and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
Ọ̀rọ̀ Samuẹli tọ gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli wá. Nísinsin yìí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jáde láti lọ bá àwọn Filistini jà. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì pàgọ́ sí Ebeneseri àti àwọn Filistini ní Afeki.
2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel: and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines; and they slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.
Àwọn Filistini mú ogun wọn sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti pàdé Israẹli, nígbà tí ogun náà bẹ̀rẹ̀, àwọn Filistini ṣẹ́gun Israẹli wọ́n pa ẹgbàajì ọkùnrin nínú ogun náà.
3 And when the people were come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath Jehovah smitten us to-day before the Philistines? Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of Shiloh unto us, that it may come among us, and save us out of the hand of our enemies.
Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ogun náà padà sí ibùdó, àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli sì béèrè pé, “Èéṣe ti Olúwa fi mú kí àwọn Filistini ṣẹ́gun wa lónìí? Ẹ jẹ́ kí a gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa láti Ṣilo wá, kí ó ba à le lọ pẹ̀lú wa kí ó sì gbà wá là kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wa.”
4 So the people sent to Shiloh; and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sitteth [above] the cherubim: and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
Nítorí náà a rán àwọn ènìyàn lọ sí Ṣilo, wọ́n sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wá, ẹni tí ń wà láàrín àwọn Kérúbù àti àwọn ọmọ Eli méjèèjì Hofini àti Finehasi wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run.
5 And when the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth rang again.
Nígbà tí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa wá sí ibùdó, gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì dìde láti kígbe tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ilẹ̀ sì mì tìtì.
6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of Jehovah was come into the camp.
Ní ìgbà tí àwọn Filistini gbọ́ ariwo náà wọ́n béèrè pé, “Kí ni gbogbo ariwo yìí ní ibùdó Heberu?” Nígbà tí wọ́n mọ̀ wí pé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa ti wá sí ibùdó,
7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.
àwọn Filistini sì bẹ̀rù pé, Ọlọ́run kékeré ti wọ ibùdó, wọ́n wí pé, “A wọ wàhálà, irú èyí kò tí ì ṣẹlẹ̀ rí.
8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? these are the gods that smote the Egyptians with all manner of plagues in the wilderness.
Àwa gbé! Ta ni yóò gbà wá kúrò lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run alágbára yìí? Àwọn ni Ọlọ́run tí ó fi ìpọ́njú pa àwọn ará Ejibiti pẹ̀lú gbogbo àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ní aginjù.
9 Be strong, and quit yourselves like men, O ye Philistines, that ye be not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been to you: quit yourselves like men, and fight.
Ẹ jẹ́ alágbára Filistini, ẹ ṣe bí ọkùnrin, bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ẹ̀yin yóò di ẹrú àwọn Heberu, bí wọ́n ti jẹ́ sí i yín. Ẹ jẹ́ alágbára ọkùnrin, kí ẹ sì jagun!”
10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled every man to his tent: and there was a very great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
Nígbà náà àwọn Filistini jà, wọ́n sì ṣẹ́gun àwọn Israẹli olúkúlùkù sì sá padà sínú àgọ́ rẹ̀, wọ́n pa ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, àwọn ará Israẹli tí ó kú sí ogun sì jẹ́ ẹgbàá mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún àwọn ọmọ-ogun orí ilẹ̀.
11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
Wọ́n gba àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, àwọn ọmọkùnrin Eli méjèèjì sì kú, Hofini àti Finehasi.
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes rent, and with earth upon his head.
Lọ́jọ́ kan náà tí ará Benjamini kan sá wá láti ojú ogun tí ó sì lọ sí Ṣilo, aṣọ rẹ̀ sì fàya pẹ̀lú eruku lórí rẹ̀.
13 And when he came, lo, Eli was sitting upon his seat by the wayside watching; for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city, and told it, all the city cried out.
Nígbà tí ó sì dé, Eli sì jókòó sórí àga rẹ̀ ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ọ̀nà, ó ń wò, ọkàn rẹ̀ kò balẹ̀ nítorí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa. Nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà wọ ìlú tí ó sì sọ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀, gbogbo ìlú bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí sọkún.
14 And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What meaneth the noise of this tumult? And the man hasted, and came and told Eli.
Eli gbọ́ ìró ohùn ẹkún náà ó sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni ìtumọ̀ ariwo yìí?” Ọkùnrin náà sì sáré tọ Eli wá
15 Now Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were set, so that he could not see.
Eli sì di ẹni méjìdínlọ́gọ́run ọdún, tí ojú rẹ̀ di bàìbàì, kò sì ríran mọ́.
16 And the man said unto Eli, I am he that came out of the army, and I fled to-day out of the army. And he said, How went the matter, my son?
Ọkùnrin náà sọ fún Eli, “Mo ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ dé láti ibi ogun náà ni: mo sá láti ibi ogun náà wá lónìí.” Eli sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni ó ṣẹlẹ̀ ọmọ mi?”
17 And he that brought the tidings answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
Ọkùnrin tí ó mú ìròyìn náà wá dáhùn pé, “Israẹli sá níwájú àwọn Filistini, ìṣubú àwọn ọmọ-ogun náà sì pọ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ rẹ méjèèjì, Hofini àti Finehasi, wọ́n kú, wọ́n sì ti gba àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lọ.”
18 And it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God, that [Eli] fell from off his seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
Nígbà tí ó dárúkọ àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, Eli sì ṣubú sẹ́yìn kúrò lórí àga ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ bodè, ọrùn rẹ̀ ṣẹ́, ó sì kú, nítorí tí ó jẹ́ arúgbó ọkùnrin, ó sì tóbi, ó ti darí àwọn Israẹli fún ogójì ọdún.
19 And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and brought forth; for her pains came upon her.
Aya ọmọ rẹ̀, ìyàwó Finehasi, ó lóyún ó súnmọ́ àkókò àti bí. Nígbà tí ó gbọ́ ìròyìn náà wí pé wọ́n ti gba àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lọ àti wí pé baba ọkọ rẹ̀ àti ọkọ rẹ̀ ti kú, ó rọbí ó sì bímọ, ó sì borí ìrora ìrọbí náà.
20 And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for thou hast brought forth a son. But she answered not, neither did she regard it.
Bí ó ti ń kú lọ, obìnrin tí ó dúró tì í wí pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù; nítorí o ti bí ọmọ ọkùnrin.” Ṣùgbọ́n kò sọ̀rọ̀ tàbí kọ ibi ara sí i.
21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel; because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
Ó sì pe ọmọ náà ní Ikabodu, wí pé, “Kò sí ògo fún Israẹli mọ́,” nítorí tí wọ́n ti gba àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run àti ikú baba ọkọ rẹ̀ àti ti ọkọ rẹ̀.
22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel; for the ark of God is taken.
Ó si wí pé, “Ògo kò sí fún Israẹli mọ́, nítorí ti a ti gbá àpótí Ọlọ́run.”
