< Kings I 31 >

1 And the Philistines fought with Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and they fall down wounded in the mountain in Gelbue.
Ie amy zao, nialy amy Israele o nte-Pilistio, le nandripàke ty lay aolo’ o nte-Pilistio o ana’ Israeleo vaho nikoromak’ am-pizamanañe an-kaboa’ i Gilboà ey.
2 And the Philistines press closely on Saul and his sons, and the Philistines strike Jonathan, and Aminadab, and Melchisa son of Saul.
Hinorida’ o nte-Pilistio mafe t’i Saole naho o ana’eo naho vinono’ o nte-Pilistio t’Ionatane naho i Abina­dabe vaho i Malkisoa, ana-dahi’ i Saole.
3 And the battle prevails against Saul, and the shooters with arrows, even the archers find him, and he was wounded under the ribs.
Nifandraparapake ty aly amy Saole le nijoy aze o mpitàm-paleo, toe nampitsingoro aze o mpitàm-paleo.
4 And Saul said to his armour-bearer, Draw your sword and pierce me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and pierce me through, and mock me. But his armour-bearer would not, for he feared greatly: so Saul took his sword and fell upon it.
Le hoe t’i Saole amy mpitàm-pikala’ey, apontsoàño o fibara’oo, le atrebeho amako tsy mone hitomboke naho hijoy ahy o tsy nisavareñe retoañeo. Fe tsy nimete i mpitàm-pikala’ey, fa loho nirevendreveñe. Aa le rinambe’ i Saole i fibara’ey vaho nihotraha’e.
5 And his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, and he fell also himself upon his sword, and died with him.
Ie nizoe’ i mpitàm-pikala’ey te nihomake t’i Saole le nihotrak’ amy fibara’ey ka, nitrao-pivetrak’ ama’e.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, in that day together.
Aa le nitrao-pihomake amy andro zay ty Saole naho i ana’e telo rey, naho i mpi­tàm-pikala’ey vaho o fonga on­dati’eo.
7 And the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those beyond Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead; and they leave their cities and flee: and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
Ie niisa’ o ana’ Israele añ’ ila’ i vava­taneio naho o alafe’ Iordaneio te nilay o ana’ Israeleo naho nihomake t’i Saole naho o ana’eo, le naforintse’ iareo o rova’ iareoo naho nitriban-day, vaho nimb’eo o nte-Pilistio nimoneñe ama’e.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow that the Philistines come to strip the dead, and they find Saul and his three sons fallen on the mountains of Gelbue.
Ie amy loak-androy, nimb’eo o nte-Pilistio hañolitse o zinamañeo, le nizoe’ iereo te nikorovok’ an-kaboa’ i Gilboà t’i Saole naho i ana’e telo rey.
9 And they turned him, and stripped off his armour, and sent it into the land of the Philistines, sending round glad tidings to their idols and to the people.
Kinitsi’ iareo i añam­bone’ey naho hinalo’ iareo o sarom-pikala’eo vaho nañitrike i raha rezay mb’eo mb’eo añ’akiban-drahare’ iareo naho am’ondatio.
10 And they set up his armour at the temple of Astarte, and they fastened his body on the wall of Baethsam.
Nasampe’ iereo añ’anjomba’ i Astarote ao o sarom-pikala’eo vaho napite’ iareo an-drindri’ i Bete-Sane eo i fañova’ey.
11 And the inhabitants of Jabis Galaad hear what the Philistines did to Saul.
Aa ie jinanji’ o nte-Iabese-Giladeo i nanoe’ o nte-Pilistio amy Sao­ley,
12 And they rose up, [even] every man of might, and marched all night, and took the body of Saul and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall of Baethsam; and they bring them to Jabis, and burn them there.
le niongake o fanalolahi’ iereoo, nikatsakatsake haleñe mb’eo nandrambe ty fañova’ i Saole naho i ana’e rey boak’ an-drindri’ i Betesàne eo naho nimpoly mb’e Iabese mb’eo vaho noroa’ iareo.
13 And they take their bones, and bury them in the field that is in Jabis, and fast seven days.
Le rinambe’ iareo o taola’ iareoo naho nalente’ iareo ambane’ ty kile’ Iabese ao vaho nililitse fito andro.
