Kings I 11
1 And it came to pass about a month after this, that Naas the Ammanite went up, and encamped against Jabis Galaad: and all the men of Jabis said to Naas the Ammanite, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.
Nahash ja-Amon nodhi malo momonjo Jabesh Gilead. Eka joma chwo man Jabesh Gilead nowachone niya, “Tim winjruok kodwa to wabiro bedo wasumbini magi.”
2 Naas the Ammanite said to them, On these terms will I make a covenant with you, that I should put out all your right eyes, and I will lay a reproach upon Israel.
To Nahash ja-Amon nodwoko niya, “Abiro timo winjruok kodu mana ka uyie ni agolo wengeu ma korachwich kuom ngʼato ka ngʼato mondo akuodgo wi Israel duto.”
3 And the men of Jabis say to him, Allow us seven days, and we will send messengers into all the coasts of Israel: if there should be no one to deliver us, we will come out to you.
Eka jodong Jabesh nowachone niya, “Miwa ndalo abiriyo mondo waor joote e piny Israel duto kaonge ngʼama oyie biro konyowa to wabiro chiwore e lweti.”
4 And the messengers came to Gabaa to Saul, and they speak the words into the ears of the people; and all the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
Kane joote otundo Gibea dalagi Saulo mi ginyiso ji wechego, giduto ne giywak matek.
5 And, behold, Saul came after the early morning out of the field: and Saul said, Why does the people week? and they tell him the words of the men of Jabis.
E sechego noyudo Saulo duogo koa e puodho ka owuotho bangʼ rwethe eka nopenjo ni, Angʼo marach gi ji? Angʼo momiyo giywak? Eka negiwachone kendo weche mane jo-jabesh owacho.
6 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Saul when he heard these words, and his anger was greatly kindled against them.
Kane Saulo owinjo wechegi, Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuome gi teko, mi iye nowangʼ ahinya.
7 And he took two cows, and cut them in pieces, and sent them into all the coasts of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, Whoso comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall they do to his oxen: and a transport from the Lord came upon the people of Israel, and they came out to battle as one man.
Ne okawo rwedhi ariyo mag pur mi oyangʼo mi opogo ringʼo lemo lemo, eka nooro joote gi ringʼogi e piny Israel duto, kowacho niya, “Ma e gima ibiro timne rweth ngʼat modagi luwo bangʼ Saulo gi Samuel.” Eka luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye ne omako ji mine giwuok gi chuny achiel.
8 And he reviews them at Bezec in Bama, every man of Israel six hundred thousand, and the men of Juda seventy thousand.
Kane Saulo okwanogi Bezek, jo-Israel ne oromo alufu mia adek to jo-Juda ne oromo alufu piero adek.
9 And he said to the messengers that came, Thus shall you say to the men of Jabis, To-morrow you shall have deliverance when the sun is hot; and the messengers came to the city, and told the men of Jabis, and they rejoiced.
Neginyiso joote mane obiro niya, “Wachneuru jo-Jabesh Gilead ni, ‘E sa ma chiengʼ oore, enoresu.’” Kane joote odwoko ne jo-Jabesh wachni negimor.
10 And the men of Jabis said to Naas the Ammanite, To-morrow we will come forth to you, and you shall do to us what seems good in your sight.
Eka neginyiso jo-Amon niya, “Kiny wanachiwre e lwetu kendo unutimnwa gima uneno ni bernu.”
11 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Saul divided the people into three companies, and they go into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and they struck the children of Ammon until the day was hot; at it came to pass that those who were left were scattered, and there were not left amongst them two together.
Kinyne Saulo nopogo joge e migepe adek; kane ochopo kogwen eka negidonjo e kambi mar jo-Amon mi ginegogi nyaka chiengʼ obet makech. Jogo mane otony ne oke maonge ji ariyo mane owe kawuotho kaachiel.
12 And the people said to Samuel, Who has said that Saul shall not reign over us? Give up the men, and we will put them to death.
Eka ji nowachone Samuel niya, “Ngʼa gini mane penjo ni, ‘Bende Saulo dibed ruodhwa?’ Kelnwagi mondo waneg-gi.”
13 And Saul said, No man shall die this day, for today the Lord has wrought deliverance in Israel.
To Saulo nowacho niya, “Onge ngʼama inego kawuono nikech kawuono Jehova Nyasaye osereso Israel.”
14 And Samuel spoke to the people, saying, Let us go to Galgala, and there renew the kingdom.
Eka Samuel ne owacho ne ji niya, “Biuru wadhi Gilgal kendo kuno wadhi guro loch Saulo.”
15 And all the people went to Galgala, and Samuel anointed Saul there to be king before the Lord in Galgala, and there he offered meat-offerings and peace-offerings before the Lord: and Samuel and all Israel rejoiced exceedingly.
Omiyo ji duto nodhi Gilgal kendo negiguro Saulo kaka ruoth e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Kuno ne gichiwoe misengini mag lalruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo Saulo kod Israel noloso budho malich ahinya.
