1 Samuel 4
1 And what Samuel had said happened to all Israel. And Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
Nanitsike Israele ty saontsi’ i Samoele; ie amy zao nionjoñe hiatrek’ amo nte-Pilistio t’Israele naho nitobe añ’ ila’i Ebene’ha’ezere ey; vaho nitobe e Afeke ey ka o nte-Pilistio.
2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel; and the battle spread, and Israel was routed before the Philistines; and they slew in battle array in the field about four thousand men.
Niriritse hiatrek’ am’Israele añ’ aly o nte-Pilistio; aa ie nitangilihiliñe an-kotakotake iereo, le linafa añatrefa’ o nte-Pilistio t’Israele, va’e efats’ arivo amo lahindefo’eo ty zinevo’ iareo amy montoñey.
3 And the people came into the camp; and the elders of Israel said, Why has Jehovah smitten us to-day before the Philistines? Let us fetch ourselves the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of Shiloh, that it may come among us, and save us out of the hand of our enemies.
Ie nimpoly an-tobe ao ondatio, le hoe ty ontane’ o roandria’ Israeleo, Aa vaho manao akore te namofok’ antika añatrefa’ o nte-Pilistio t’Iehovà? Antao hakaren-tika mb’etoa i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày boake Silò ao, le ie aman-tika, va’e ho rombahe’e am-pitàn-drafelahin-tika.
4 So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sitteth between the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there by the ark of the covenant of God.
Aa le nañitrike mbe Silò ondatio ninday i vatam-pañina’ Iehovà mpimoneñe añivo’ i kerobe reiy boak’ ao; nindre amy vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey i ana-dahi’ i Elý roe rey, i Kofný naho i Pinekase.
5 And it came to pass when the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came into the camp, that all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth shook.
Aa ie nivotrak’ an-tobe ao ty vatam-pañina’ Iehovà, le akore ty fipazapazake pinoña’ Israele iaby kanao nanginikinike i taney.
6 And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and said, What is the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of Jehovah had come into the camp.
Ie jinanji’ o nte-Pilistio ty fikoraha’ i pazapazakey, le hoe iereo: Ino o fañenotsatsak’ an-tobe’ o nte-Evreo? Le nirendre’ iareo te nivotrak’ an-tobe ao ty vatam-pañina’ Iehovà.
7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there has not been such a thing heretofore.
Niholi-balà amy zao o nte-Pilistio, le hoe iereo: Nivotrak’ an-tobe ao t’i Andrianañahare. Hoe iereo, Hankàñe aman-tika! fa tsy izay te omale naho fakomale-bey.
8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? these are the gods that smote the Egyptians with every plague in the wilderness.
Hekoheko aman-tika! Ia ty handrombak’ an-tika am-pità’ o ‘ndrahare maozatseo? O ‘ndrahare nandafa o nte-Mitsraimeo amo angorosy iaby an-dratraratrao.
9 Shew yourselves valiant and be men, ye Philistines, that ye may not have to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: be men, and fight.
Mifatrara ho bakalàhy ry nte-Pilistio tsy hitoroña’ areo o nte-Evreo manahake ty fitoroña’ iareo an-tika; mihaozara hoe t’ie ondaty, le mialia.
10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was routed, and they fled every man to his tent; and there was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
Aa le nialy o nte-Pilistio naho nigioke t’Israele vaho songa nitriban-day mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo t’indaty; le tsi-fotofoto ty nizamañe; toe lahindefo telo-ale ty nikorovok’ amy hotakotakey.
11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.
Tinavañe i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey; vaho zinevo t’i Kofný naho i Pinekase, i ana-dahi’ i Elý roe rey.
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the battle, and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes rent and with earth upon his head.
Nihitrihitry boak’ amy hotakotakey t’i nte-Beniamine niheo mb’e Silò mb’eo amy andro zay, riatse iaby o saro’eo, vaho deboke ty añambone’e.
13 And when he came, behold, Eli was sitting upon the seat by the way-side watching; for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And the man came to tell it in the city, and all the city cried out.
Ie pok’eo, ingo t’i Elý niambesatse amy fiambesa’e añ’olon-dalañey nijilojilo; ie nihitikitik’ añ’arofo ty amy vatan’ Añaharey. Aa naho nizilik’ an-drova ao t’indaty, le nikoaike iaby i rovay.
14 And Eli heard the noise of the crying, and said, What is the noise of this tumult? And the man came hastily, and told Eli.
Ie jinanji’ i Elý ty fikoraha’ i fitoreovañey, le hoe re, Ino ze o fikontsiañañe zao? Nihitrike mb’amy Elý indatiy, nitalily.
15 Now Eli was ninety-eight years old; and his eyes were set, that he could not see.
Ie amy zao ni-sivampolo-valo’ amby taoñe t’i Elý, vaho nifè-pihaino, tsy nahaisake.
16 And the man said to Eli, I am he that came out of the battle, and I have fled to-day out of the battle. And he said, What has taken place, my son?
Le hoe indatiy amy Elý: Vaho niboak’ amy fifandraparapahañey iraho anindroany, nihitrike boak’ amy hotakotakey. Aa le hoe re ama’e, O anako, ino i tsaraeñey?
17 And the messenger answered and said, Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i nihitrikey, Nandripàke aolo’ o nte-Pilistio t’Israele, le tsifotofoto ty nizamañe am’ ondatio naho i ana-dahi’o roe rey, nihomake t’i Kofný naho i Pinekase vaho tinavañe i vatan’Añaharey.
18 And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck broke, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
Aa ie nitalily i vatan’ Añaharey, le niponake nañamboho amy fiambesa’ey añ’ ila’ i lalambeiy re, le nipozake ty fititia’e vaho nihomake, amy t’ie ondaty bey naho navesatse. Fa efa-polo taoñe ty nizaka’e Israele.
19 And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, near to be delivered; and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.
Ie amy zao, nivesatse ty vinanto’e ampela, ty vali’ i Pinekase, naho fa hisamake; aa ie jinanji’e i taliliy te tinavañe i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey naho te nihomake iaby ty rafoza’e naho i vali’ey, le nibokoke vaho nisamake; amy te nifetsaha’ ty fitsongoa’e.
20 And as she was dying, the women that stood by her said, Fear not; for thou hast borne a son. But she did not answer, neither did she take it to heart.
Aa ie amy fivetraha’ey, hoe ty rakemba nijohañe añ’ila’e eo: Ko hemban-drehe, fa nahatoly ana-dahy. F’ie tsy nanoiñe, tsy nañaoñe.
21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel; because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
Natao’e Ikabòde ty añara’ i ajajay, ami’ty hoe: Fa nienga Israele ty engeñe; amy te tinavañe i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey, naho ty amy rafoza’ey naho i vali’ey,
22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel, for the ark of God is taken.
ie nanao ty hoe: Nienga Israele ty engeñe, amy te tinavañe i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey.
