1 Samuel 4
1 Now at that time the Philistines came together to make war against Israel, and the men of Israel went out to war against the Philistines and took up their position at the side of Eben-ezer: and the Philistines put their forces in position in Aphek.
At ang salita ni Samuel ay dumating sa buong Israel, Ngayo'y lumabas ang Israel laban sa mga Filisteo upang makipagbaka, at humantong sa Ebenezer: at ang mga Filisteo ay humantong sa Aphec.
2 And the Philistines put their forces in order against Israel, and the fighting was hard, and Israel was overcome by the Philistines, who put to the sword about four thousand of their army in the field.
At ang mga Filisteo ay humanay laban sa Israel: at nang sila'y magsagupa, ang Israel ay nasaktan sa harap ng mga Filisteo; at kanilang pinatay sa hukbo sa parang, ay may apat na libong lalake.
3 And when the people came back to their tents, the responsible men of Israel said, Why has the Lord let the Philistines overcome us today? Let us get the ark of the Lord's agreement here from Shiloh, so that it may be with us and give us salvation from the hands of those who are against us.
At nang ang bayan ay dumating sa kampamento, ay sinabi ng mga matanda sa Israel, Bakit sinaktan tayo ngayon ng Panginoon sa harap ng mga Filisteo? Ating dalhin sa atin ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon mula sa Silo, upang mapasa gitna natin yaon, at iligtas tayo sa kamay ng ating mga kaaway.
4 So the people sent to Shiloh and got the ark of the agreement of the Lord of armies whose resting-place is between the winged ones; and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were there with the ark of God's agreement.
Sa gayo'y nagsugo ang bayan sa Silo, at kanilang dinala mula roon ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon ng mga hukbo, na nauupo sa gitna ng mga querubin: at ang dalawang anak ni Eli, si Ophni at si Phinees, ay nandoon na binabantayan ang kaban ng tipan ng Dios.
5 And when the ark of the Lord's agreement came into the tent-circle, all Israel gave a great cry, so that the earth was sounding with it.
At nang ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon ay pumasok sa kampamento, ang buong Israel ay humiyaw ng malakas na hiyaw, na ano pa't naghinugong sa lupa.
6 And the Philistines, hearing the noise of their cry, said, What is this great cry among the tents of the Hebrews? Then it became clear to them that the ark of the Lord had come to the tent-circle.
At nang marinig ng mga Filisteo ang ingay ng hiyaw, ay nagsipagsabi, Ano ang kahulugan ng ingay nitong malakas na hiyaw sa kampamento ng mga Hebreo? At kanilang natalastas na ang kaban ng Panginoon ay ipinasok sa kampamento.
7 And the Philistines, full of fear, said, God has come into their tents. And they said, Trouble is ours! for never before has such a thing been seen.
At ang mga Filisteo ay nangatakot, sapagka't kanilang sinabi, Ang Dios ay pumasok sa kampamento. At kanilang sinabi, Sa aba natin! sapagka't hindi pa nagkakaroon ng ganyang bagay kailan man.
8 Trouble is ours! Who will give us salvation from the hands of these great gods? These are the gods who sent all sorts of blows on the Egyptians in the waste land.
Sa aba natin! sino ang magliligtas sa atin sa kamay ng makapangyarihang mga dios na ito? ito ang mga dios na nanakit sa mga taga-Egipto ng sarisaring salot sa ilang.
9 Be strong, O Philistines, be men! Do not be servants to the Hebrews as they have been to you: go forward to the fight without fear.
Kayo'y magpakalakas at magpakalalake, Oh kayong mga Filisteo, upang kayo'y huwag maging mga alipin ng mga Hebreo, na gaya ng naging lagay nila sa inyo: kayo'y magpakalalake, at magsilaban.
10 So the Philistines went to the fight, and Israel was overcome, and every man went in flight to his tent: and great was the destruction, for thirty thousand footmen of Israel were put to the sword.
At ang mga Filisteo ay nagsilaban, at ang Israel ay nasaktan, at tumakas ang bawa't isa sa kanila sa kaniyang tolda: at nagkaroon ng malaking patayan; sapagka't nabuwal sa Israel ay tatlong pung libong lalaking lakad.
11 And the ark of God was taken; and Hophni and Phinehas, the sons of Eli, were put to the sword.
At ang kaban ng Dios ay kinuha; at ang dalawang anak ni Eli, si Ophni at Phinees ay pinatay.
12 And a man of Benjamin went running from the fight and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothing out of order and earth on his head.
At tumakbo ang isang lalake ng Benjamin na mula sa hukbo, at naparoon sa Silo nang araw ding yaon, na may barong hapak at may lupa sa kaniyang ulo.
13 And when he came, Eli was seated by the wayside watching: and in his heart was fear for the ark of God. And when the man came into the town and gave the news, there was a great outcry.
At nang siya'y dumating, narito, si Eli ay nakaupo sa kaniyang upuan sa tabi ng daan na nagbabantay; sapagka't ang kaniyang puso'y nanginginig dahil sa kaban ng Dios. At nang ang tao ay pumasok sa bayan, at saysayin ang mga balita, ang buong bayan ay humiyaw.
14 And Eli, hearing the noise and the cries, said, What is the reason of this outcry? And the man came quickly and gave the news to Eli.
At nang marinig ni Eli ang ingay ng hiyawan, ay kaniyang sinabi, Ano ang kahulugan ng kaingay ng gulong ito? At ang tao'y nagmadali, at naparoon, at isinaysay kay Eli.
15 Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were fixed so that he was not able to see.
Si Eli nga'y may siyam na pu't walong taon na; at ang kaniyang mga mata'y malalabo na, siya'y di na makakita.
16 And the man said to Eli, I have come from the army and have come in flight today from the fight. And he said, How did it go, my son?
At sinabi ng lalake kay Eli, Ako yaong nanggaling sa hukbo, at ako'y tumakas ngayon mula sa hukbo. At kaniyang sinabi, Paano ang nangyari, anak ko?
17 And the man said, Israel went in flight from the Philistines, and there has been great destruction among the people, and your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.
At siya na nagdala ng mga balita ay sumagot at nagsabi, Ang Israel ay tumakas sa harap ng mga Filisteo, at nagkaroon din naman doon ng isang malaking patayan sa gitna ng bayan, at pati ng iyong dalawang anak, si Ophni at si Phinees ay patay na, at ang kaban ng Dios ay kinuha.
18 And at these words about the ark of God, Eli, falling back off his seat by the side of the doorway into the town, came down on the earth so that his neck was broken and death overtook him, for he was an old man and of great weight. He had been judging Israel for forty years.
At nangyari, nang kaniyang banggitin ang kaban ng Dios, na siya'y nabuwal sa likuran sa kaniyang upuan sa dako ng pintuang-bayan; at nabalian siya sa leeg, at siya'y namatay: sapagka't siya'y lalaking matanda at mabigat. At hinatulan niya ang Israel na apat na pung taon.
19 And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child and near the time when she would give birth; and when she had the news that the ark of God had been taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, her pains came on her suddenly and she gave birth.
At ang kaniyang manugang, na asawa ni Phinees, ay buntis na kagampan: at pagkarinig niya ng balita na ang kaban ng Dios ay kinuha, at ang kaniyang biyanan at kaniyang asawa ay patay na, ay yumukod siya at napanganak; sapagka't ang kaniyang pagdaramdam ay dumating sa kaniya.
20 And when she was very near death the women who were with her said, Have no fear, for you have given birth to a son. But she made no answer and gave no attention to it.
At nang mamatay na siya, ay sinabi sa kaniya ng mga babaing nakatayo sa siping niya, Huwag kang matakot; sapagka't ikaw ay nanganak ng isang lalake. Nguni't hindi siya sumagot, o inalumana man niya.
21 And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
At ipinangalan niya sa bata ay Ichabod, na sinasabi, Ang kaluwalhatian ay nahiwalay sa Israel; sapagka't ang kaban ng Dios ay kinuha, at dahil sa kaniyang biyanan at sa kaniyang asawa.
22 And she said, The glory is gone from Israel, for the ark of God has been taken.
At kaniyang sinabi, Ang kaluwalhatian ng Dios ay nahiwalay sa Israel; sapagka't ang kaban ng Dios ay kinuha.
