1 Samuel 7
1 Then the men of Kiriath-jearim came for the ark of the LORD and took it into Abinadab’s house on the hill. And they consecrated his son Eleazar to guard the ark of the LORD.
Immay dagiti tattao ti Kiriat Jearim ket innalada ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh ket impanda iti balay ni Abinadab iti turod. Dinutokanda ti putotna a lalaki a ni Eleazar a mangaywan iti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh.
2 And from that day a long time passed, twenty years in all, as the ark remained at Kiriath-jearim. And all the house of Israel mourned and sought after the LORD.
Atiddog a tiempo a nagtalinaed iti Kiriat Jearim ti lakasa ti tulag, nagtalinaed sadiay iti duapulo a tawen. Nagdung-aw amin a balay ti Israel ket tinarigagayanda ti agsubli kenni Yahweh.
3 Then Samuel said to all the house of Israel, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your hearts, then rid yourselves of the foreign gods and Ashtoreths among you, prepare your hearts for the LORD, and serve Him only. And He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.”
Kinuna ni Samuel kadagiti amin a tattao ti Israel, “No agsublikayo kenni Yahweh iti amin a pusoyo, ikkatenyo dagiti ganggannaet a dios ken Astarte manipud kadakayo, ibaw-ingyo dagiti pusoyo kenni Yahweh, ken isuna laeng ti dayawenyo, ket ispalennakayonto manipud kadagiti ima dagiti Filisteo.”
4 So the Israelites put away the Baals and Ashtoreths and served only the LORD.
Inikkat ngarud dagiti tattao ti Israel dagiti Baal ken ti Astarte, ket ni Yahweh laeng ti dinaydayawda.
5 Then Samuel said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD on your behalf.”
Ket kinuna ni Samuel, “Ummongenyo ti entero nga Israel idiay Mizpa, ket agkararagakto kenni Yahweh para kadakayo.”
6 When they had gathered at Mizpah, they drew water and poured it out before the LORD. On that day they fasted, and there they confessed, “We have sinned against the LORD.” And Samuel judged the Israelites at Mizpah.
Nagummongda idiay Mizpa, nagsakdoda iti danum ket imbukbokda iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Nagayunarda iti dayta nga aldaw ket kinunada, “Nagbasolkami kenni Yahweh.” Sadiay ti nangrisutan ni Samuel kadagiti riri dagiti tattao ti Israel ket indauloanna dagiti tattao.
7 When the Philistines heard that the Israelites had gathered at Mizpah, their rulers marched up toward Israel. And when the Israelites learned of this, they feared the Philistines
Ita, idi nangngeg dagiti Filisteo a naguummong dagiti tattao ti Israel idiay Mizpa, rinaut dagiti mangidadaulo iti Filistia ti Israel. Idi nangngeg dagiti tattao ti Israel daytoy, nagbutengda kadagiti Filisteo.
8 and said to Samuel, “Do not stop crying out to the LORD our God for us, that He may save us from the hand of the Philistines.”
Ket kinuna dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Samuel, “Saanka nga agsardeng nga umawag kenni Yahweh a Diostayo para kadatayo tapno isalakannatayo manipud kadagiti ima dagiti Filisteo.”
9 Then Samuel took a suckling lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the LORD. He cried out to the LORD on behalf of Israel, and the LORD answered him.
Nangala ni Samuel iti agsussuso a karnero ket indatonna daytoy kenni Yahweh a kas sibubukel a daton a mapuoran. Kalpasanna, immasug ni Samuel kenni Yahweh para iti Israel, ket impangag ni Yahweh isuna.
10 As the Philistines drew near to fight against Israel, Samuel was sacrificing the burnt offering. But that day the LORD thundered loudly against the Philistines and threw them into such confusion that they fled before Israel.
Kabayatan nga idatdaton ni Samuel ti daton a mapuoran, immasideg dagiti Filisteo tapno darupenda ti Israel; ngem pinaggurruod ni Yahweh iti napigsa iti dayta nga aldaw a maibusor kadagiti Filisteo ken tinikawna ida ket inturongna ida iti sangoanan ti Israel.
11 Then the men of Israel charged out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, striking them down all the way to an area below Beth-car.
Pimmanaw dagiti tattao ti Israel manipud Mizpa, ket kinamatda dagiti Filisteo agingga idiay Bet-kar ket pinatayda ida.
12 Afterward, Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the LORD has helped us.”
Kalpasanna, nangala ni Samuel iti maysa a bato sana inkabil iti nagbaetan ti Mizpa ken Sen. Pinanagananna daytoy iti Ebenezer, a kinunana, “Tinulongannatayo ni Yahweh.”
13 So the Philistines were subdued, and they stopped invading the territory of Israel. And the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
Naabak ngarud dagiti Filisteo ket saanda a nakastrek iti beddeng ti Israel. Ti ima ni Yahweh ket maibusor kadagiti Filisteo kadagiti amin nga al-aldaw ni Samuel.
14 The cities from Ekron to Gath, which the Philistines had taken, were restored to Israel, who also delivered the surrounding territory from the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between the Israelites and the Amorites.
Naisubli iti Israel dagiti ili nga innala dagiti Filisteo manipud iti Israel, manipud Ekron agingga idiay Gat; nasubli ti Israel ti masakupanda manipud kadagiti Filisteo. Ket adda kappia iti nagbaetan ti Israel ken dagiti Amorreo.
15 So Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
Nagbalin nga ukom ni Samuel iti Israel kadagiti amin nga al-aldaw ti biagna.
16 Every year he would go on a circuit from Bethel to Gilgal to Mizpah, judging Israel in all these places.
Tinawen nga agsubli-subli isuna idiay Betel, Gilgal, ken idiay Mizpa. Rinisutna dagiti riri ti Israel kadagitoy amin a lugar.
17 Then he would return to Ramah because his home was there, and there he judged Israel and built an altar to the LORD.
Kalpasanna, agsubli isuna idiay Rama, gapu ta sadiay ti ayan ti balayna; ket sadiay, rinisutna met dagiti riri ti Israel. Nangbangon met isuna sadiay iti altar para kenni Yahweh.
