1 Chronicles 10
1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before them, and many fell slain on Mount Gilboa.
Nʼoge a ndị Filistia lụsoro ndị Izrel agha, ndị Izrel si nʼihu ha gbaa ọsọ, ma ọtụtụ nʼime ha nwụrụ nʼugwu Gilboa.
2 The Philistines followed hard after Saul and his sons, and they killed Saul’s sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
Ndị Filistia ji ike chụso Sọl na ụmụ ya. Ha gburu ụmụ ya ndị ikom, Jonatan, Abinadab na Malkishua.
3 When the battle intensified against Saul, the archers overtook him and wounded him.
Agha ahụ siri ike nke ukwuu megide Sọl, mgbe ndị na-agba ụta chụkwutere ya ha merụrụ ya ahụ.
4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run it through me, or these uncircumcised men will come and torture me!” But his armor-bearer was terrified and refused to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
Sọl gwara onye na-ebu ngwa agha ya, sị, “Mịpụta mma agha gị, were ya magbuo m ka ndị a a na-ebighị ugwu ghara ịbịa jiri m mee ihe egwuregwu.” Ma onye na-ebu ngwa agha ya ekweghị, nʼihi ọnọdụ oke egwu. Nʼihi ya, Sọl were mma agha nke ya, dakwasị nʼelu ya.
5 When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he too fell on his own sword and died.
Mgbe onye na-ebu ihe agha Sọl hụrụ na ọ nwụọla, ya onwe ya dakwasịkwara nʼelu mma agha nke ya, nwụọkwa.
6 So Saul died together with his three sons and all his house.
Ya mere, Sọl na ụmụ ya ndị ikom atọ nwụrụ, ndị niile si nʼụlọ ya nwụkwara nʼotu mgbe ahụ.
7 When all the Israelites in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and ran away. So the Philistines came and occupied their cities.
Mgbe ndị Izrel niile nọ na ndagwurugwu hụrụ na ndị agha agbaala ọsọ, na Sọl na ụmụ ya ndị ikom anwụọla, ha hapụrụ obodo ha niile gbapụ ọsọ. Ndị Filistia bịakwara bichie nʼime ha.
8 The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
Nʼechi ya, mgbe ndị Filistia bịara iyipụ ndị nwụrụ anwụ ihe ha ga-achịkọrọ, ha hụrụ ozu Sọl na nke ụmụ ya ndị ikom ka ha tọgbọ nʼugwu Gilboa.
9 They stripped Saul, cut off his head, took his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news in the temple of their idols and among their people.
Ha yipụrụ ya ihe niile oyi, buru isi ya na ihe agha ya, zipụkwa ndị ozi gara nʼala ndị Filistia niile ikwusa akụkọ ihe mere nye ndị ha niile na arụsị ha niile.
10 They put his armor in the temple of their gods and hung his head in the temple of Dagon.
Ha tinyere ihe agha ya nʼụlọ chi ha, kwụbakwa okpokoro isi ya nʼụlọ Dagọn.
11 When the people of Jabesh-gilead heard about everything the Philistines had done to Saul,
Mgbe ndị Jebesh Gilead niile nụrụ ihe ndị Filistia mere Sọl,
12 all their men of valor set out and retrieved the bodies of Saul and his sons and brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.
ndị ikom ha niile bụ ndị dimkpa, biliri gaa buru ozu Sọl na ụmụ ya, bulata ha na Jebesh. Ha liri ọkpụkpụ ha nʼokpuru osisi ukwu dị na Jebesh, buo ọnụ ụbọchị asaa.
13 So Saul died for his unfaithfulness to the LORD, because he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance,
Sọl nwụrụ nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ya nye Onyenwe anyị, o debeghị okwu Onyenwe anyị, karịsịa, ọ gara na nke onye na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase, nʼihi ịjụta ya ase,
14 and he failed to inquire of the LORD. So the LORD put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David son of Jesse.
ma ọ jụghị ase site nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ nke a mere Onyenwe anyị ji gbuo ya, were alaeze ya nyefee Devid nwa Jesi nʼaka.
