< 1 Samuel 28 >
1 Now in those days the Philistines got their forces together to make war on Israel. And Achish said to David, Certainly you and your men are to go out with me to the fight.
At nangyari sa mga araw na yaon, na pinisan ng mga Filisteo ang kanilang mga hukbo sa pakikidigma upang lumaban sa Israel. At sinabi ni Achis kay David, Talastasin mong maigi na ikaw ay lalabas na kasama ko sa hukbo, ikaw at ang inyong mga lalake.
2 And David said to Achish, You will see now what your servant will do. And Achish said to David, Then I will make you keeper of my head for ever.
At sinabi ni David kay Achis, Kaya't iyong nalalaman kung anong gagawin ng iyong lingkod. At sinabi ni Achis kay David, Kaya't gagawin kitang bantay sa aking ulo magpakailan man.
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel, after weeping for him, had put his body in its last resting-place in Ramah, his town. And Saul had put away from the land all those who had control of spirits and who made use of secret arts.
Si Samuel nga ay namatay, at pinanaghuyan ng buong Israel at inilibing siya sa Rama, sa makatuwid baga'y sa kaniyang sariling bayan. At pinalayas ni Saul sa lupain, yaong mga nakikipagsanggunian sa masamang espiritu, at ang mga manghuhula.
4 And the Philistines came together and put their forces in position in Shunem; and Saul got all Israel together and they took up their positions in Gilboa.
At nagpipisan ang mga Filisteo, at naparoon at humantong sa Sunam: at pinisan ni Saul ang buong Israel, at sila'y humantong sa Gilboa.
5 And when Saul saw the Philistine army he was troubled, and his heart was moved with fear.
At nang makita ni Saul ang hukbo ng mga Filisteo, siya'y natakot, at ang kaniyang puso ay nanginig na mainam.
6 And when Saul went for directions to the Lord, the Lord gave him no answer, by a dream or by the Urim or by the prophets.
At nang magusisa si Saul sa Panginoon, ay hindi siya sinagot ng Panginoon, maging sa panaginip man, ni sa Urim man, ni sa pamamagitan man ng mga propeta.
7 Then Saul said to his servants, Get me a woman who has control of a spirit so that I may go to her and get directions. And his servants said to him, There is such a woman at En-dor.
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Saul sa kaniyang mga lingkod, Ihanap ninyo ako ng isang babae na nakikipagsanggunian sa masamang espiritu, upang ako'y pumaroon sa kaniya, at magusisa sa kaniya. At sinabi ng kaniyang mga lingkod sa kaniya. Narito, may isang babae na nakikipagsanggunian sa masamang espiritu sa Endor.
8 So Saul, putting on other clothing, so that he might not be seen to be the king, took two men with him and went to the woman by night; and he said, Now, with the help of the spirit which you have, make the person whose name I will give you come up.
At hindi napakilala si Saul, at nagsuot ng ibang kasuutan, at naparoon siya at ang dalawang lalake na kasama niya, at sila'y dumating sa babae nang kinagabihan: at kaniyang sinabi, Hulaan mo ako isinasamo ko sa iyo, sa pamamagitan ng sinasanggunian mong espiritu, at iahon mo sa akin sinomang banggitin ko sa iyo.
9 And the woman said to him, But you have knowledge of what Saul has done, how he has put away out of the land those who have control of spirits and the users of secret arts: why would you, by a trick, put me in danger of death?
At sinabi ng babae sa kaniya, Narito, iyong nalalaman ang ginawa ni Saul, kung paanong kaniyang inihiwalay yaong mga nakikipagsanggunian sa masamang espiritu, at ang mga manghuhula, sa lupain: bakit nga ipinaglalagay mo ng silo ang aking buhay, upang ipapatay ako?
10 And Saul made an oath to her by the Lord, saying, By the living Lord, no punishment will come to you for this.
At sumumpa si Saul sa kaniya sa pamamagitan ng Panginoon, na sinasabi, Buhay ang Panginoon, walang parusang mangyayari sa iyo dahil sa bagay na ito.
11 Then the woman said, Who am I to let you see? And he said, Make Samuel come up for me.
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng babae, Sinong iaahon ko sa iyo? At kaniyang sinabi, Iahon mo si Samuel sa akin.
12 And the woman saw that it was Saul, and she gave a loud cry, and said to Saul, Why have you made use of deceit? for you are Saul.
At nang makita ng babae si Samuel, ay sumigaw ng malakas na tinig at nagsalita ang babae kay Saul, na sinasabi, Bakit mo ako dinaya? sapagka't ikaw ay si Saul.
13 And the king said to her, Have no fear: what do you see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
At sinabi ng hari sa kaniya, Huwag kang matakot: sapagka't anong iyong nakikita? At sinabi ng babae kay Saul, Aking nakikita'y isang dios na lumilitaw sa lupa.
14 And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, It is an old man coming up covered with a robe. And Saul saw that it was Samuel, and with his face bent down to the earth he gave him honour.
At kaniyang sinabi sa kaniya, Ano ang kaniyang anyo? At sinabi niya, Isang matandang lalake ay lumilitaw; at siya'y nabibilot ng isang balabal. At nakilala ni Saul, na si Samuel, at siya'y yumukod sa lupa, at nagbigay galang.
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why have you made me come up, troubling my rest? And Saul in answer said, I am in great danger; for the Philistines are making war on me, and God has gone away from me and will no longer give me any answer, by the prophets or by dreams: so I have sent for you to make clear to me what I am to do.
At sinabi ni Samuel kay Saul, Bakit mo binagabag ako sa aking pagahon? At sumagot si Saul, Ako'y totoong naliligalig; sapagka't ang mga Filisteo ay nangdidigma laban sa akin, at ang Dios ay humiwalay sa akin, at hindi na ako sinasagot, kahit sa pamamagitan ng mga propeta, ni ng panaginip man: kaya tinawag kita, upang maipakilala mo sa akin kung ano ang aking gagawin.
16 And Samuel said, Why do you put your questions to me, seeing that God has gone away from you and is on the side of him who is against you?
At sinabi ni Samuel, Bakit nga nagtatanong ka sa akin, dangang ang Panginoon ay humiwalay sa iyo, at naging iyong kaaway?
17 And the Lord himself has done what I said: the Lord has taken the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbour David;
At ginawa ng Panginoon ang gaya ng sinalita niya sa pamamagitan ko: at inihiwalay ng Panginoon ang kaharian sa iyong kamay, at ibinigay sa iyong kapuwa, sa makatuwid baga'y kay David.
18 Because you did not do what the Lord said, and did not give effect to his burning wrath against Amalek. So the Lord has done this thing to you today.
Sapagka't hindi mo sinunod ang tinig ng Panginoon, at hindi mo ginawa ang kaniyang mabagsik na galit sa Amalec, kaya't ginawa ng Panginoon ang bagay na ito sa iyo sa araw na ito.
19 And more than this, the Lord will give Israel up with you into the hands of the Philistines: and tomorrow you and your sons will be with me: and the Lord will give up the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.
Bukod dito'y ibibigay ng Panginoon ang Israel naman na kalakip mo sa kamay ng mga Filisteo: at bukas, ikaw at ang iyong mga anak ay masasama sa akin: ibibigay naman ng Panginoon ang hukbo ng Israel sa kamay ng mga Filisteo.
20 Then Saul went down flat on the earth, and was full of fear because of Samuel's words: and there was no strength in him, for he had taken no food all that day or all that night.
Nang magkagayo'y biglang nabulagta si Saul sa lupa, at siya'y natakot na mainam, dahil sa mga salita ni Samuel; at nawalan siya ng lakas; sapagka't hindi siya kumain ng tinapay buong araw, ni buong gabi man.
21 And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was in great trouble, and said to him, See now, your servant has given ear to your words, and I have put my life in danger by doing what you said.
At naparoon ang babae kay Saul at nakita na siya'y totoong bagabag, at sinabi sa kaniya, Narito, narinig ng iyong lingkod ang iyong tinig, at aking inilagay ang aking buhay sa aking kamay, at aking dininig ang iyong mga salita na iyong sinalita sa akin.
22 So now, give ear to the voice of your servant, and let me give you a little bread; and take some food to give you strength when you go on your way.
Ngayon nga, isinasamo ko sa iyo, iyong dinggin naman ang tinig ng iyong lingkod, at papaglagyin mo ako ng isang subo na tinapay sa harap mo; at iyong kanin upang ikaw ay lumakas, paglakad mo ng iyong lakad.
23 But he would not, saying, I have no desire for food. But his servants, together with the woman, made him take food, and he gave way to them. So he got up from the earth, and took his seat on the bed.
Nguni't siya'y tumanggi at nagsabi, Hindi ako kakain. Nguni't ipinilit ng kaniyang mga lingkod na pati ng babae; at dininig niya ang kanilang tinig. Sa gayo'y siya'y bumangon sa lupa, ay umupo sa higaan.
24 And the woman had in the house a young cow, made fat for food; and she put it to death straight away; and she took meal and got it mixed and made unleavened bread;
At ang babae ay mayroong isang matabang guyang baka sa bahay; at siya'y nagmadali, at pinatay niya; at siya'y kumuha ng harina at kaniyang minasa, at kaniyang niluto na tinapay na walang lebadura;
25 And she put it before Saul and his servants, and they had a meal. Then they got up and went away the same night.
At kaniyang dinala sa harap ni Saul, at sa harap ng kaniyang mga lingkod; at sila'y kumain. Nang magkagayo'y sila'y bumangon, at umalis nang gabing yaon.
