< 1 Chronicles 10 >

1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down wounded in mount Gelboe.
Na rĩrĩ, Afilisti nĩmarũire na Isiraeli; nao andũ a Isiraeli makĩmoorĩra, na aingĩ ao makĩũragĩrwo Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Giliboa.
2 And the Philistines drew near pursuing after Saul, and his sons, and they killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchisua the sons of Saul.
Afilisti makĩhatĩrĩria Saũlũ na ariũ ake mũno, na makĩũraga ariũ ake Jonathani, na Abinadabu, na Maliki-Shua.
3 And the battle grew hard against Saul, and the archers reached him, and wounded him with arrows.
Na rĩrĩ, mbaara nĩyaneneheire Saũlũ mũno, na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aikia a mĩguĩ maamũkinyĩrire, makĩmũguraria.
4 And Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and mock me. But his armourbearer would not, for he was struck with fear: so Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
Nake Saũlũ akĩĩra mũkuui wa indo ciake cia mbaara atĩrĩ, “Comora rũhiũ rwaku rwa njora ũũthece naruo, nĩguo andũ aya mataruaga matigooke kũnyararithia.” No mũndũ ũcio mũkuui wa indo ciake cia mbaara agĩĩtigĩra mũno, akĩrega gwĩka ũguo; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ akĩoya rũhiũ rwake rwa njora, akĩrũgwĩra.
5 And when his armourbearer saw it, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died.
Rĩrĩa mũkuui wa indo cia mbaara onire atĩ Saũlũ nĩakua, o nake akĩgwĩra rũhiũ rwake rwa njora, agĩkua.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house fell together.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ na ariũ ake atatũ magĩkua, nao andũ othe a nyũmba yake magĩgĩkua o hamwe.
7 And when the men of Israel, that dwelt in the plains, saw this, they fled: and Saul and his sons being dead, they forsook their cities, and were scattered up and down: and the Philistines came, and dwelt in them.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli othe arĩa maarĩ kĩanda moonire atĩ ita nĩrĩorĩte, na atĩ Saũlũ na ariũ ake nĩmakuĩte-rĩ, magĩtiganĩria matũũra mao, makĩũra; nao Afilisti magĩthiĩ magĩikara kuo.
8 And the next day the Philistines taking away the spoils of them that were slain, found Saul and his sons lying on mount Gelboe.
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, Afilisti magĩthiĩ gũcuuma ciimba, magĩkora Saũlũ na ariũ ake makuĩte kũu Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Giliboa.
9 And when they had stripped him, and cut off his head, and taken away his armour, they sent it into their land, to be carried about, and shewn in the temples of the idols and to the people.
Makĩmũbora, na magĩkuua mũtwe wake, na indo ciake cia mbaara; magĩcooka magĩtũma andũ mathiĩ bũrũri wothe wa Afilisti makaanĩrĩre ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ mĩhianano yao ya kũhooywo, na kũrĩ andũ ao.
10 And his armour they dedicated in the temple of their god, and his head they fastened up in the temple of Dagon.
Makĩiga indo cia Saũlũ cia mbaara thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya ngai ciao, naguo mũtwe wake makĩwoherera kũu hekarũ ya Dagoni.
11 And when the men of Jabes Galaad had heard this, to wit, all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
No rĩrĩa andũ a Jabeshi-Gileadi maaiguire ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mothe Afilisti meekĩte Saũlũ-rĩ,
12 All the valiant men of them arose, and took the bodies of Saul and of his sons, and brought them to Jabes, and buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabes, and they fasted seven days.
njamba ciao cia ita igĩthiĩ, igĩkuua mĩĩrĩ ya Saũlũ na ya ariũ ake, ikĩmĩrehe Jabeshi. Magĩcooka magĩthika mahĩndĩ mao gĩtina-inĩ kĩa mũtĩ ũrĩa mũnene kũu Jabeshi, na makĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio mĩthenya mũgwanja.
13 So Saul died for his iniquities, because he transgressed the commandment of the Lord, which he had commanded, and kept it not: and moreover consulted also a witch,
Saũlũ aakuire nĩ ũndũ ndaarĩ mwĩhokeku kũrĩ Jehova; ndaamenyereire kiugo kĩa Jehova, o na nĩahooire kĩrĩra kuuma kũrĩ mũragũri atĩ amũtongorie,
14 And trusted not is the Lord: therefore he slew him, and transferred his kingdom to David the son of Isai.
no ndahooire kĩrĩra kũrĩ Jehova. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩmũũraga, na akĩneana ũthamaki kũrĩ Daudi mũrũ wa Jesii.
