1 Samuel 14
1 Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is on the other side of yonder place. But he told not this to his father.
Aa teo ty andro te nanao ty hoe amy mpinday fikala’ey t’Ionatane ana’ i Saole: Antao hitsake mb’ ampirai-lia’ o nte-Pilisty an-kalo’ o e hoekeo mb’eo. F’ie tsy nampandrendrek’ an-drae’e.
2 And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gabaa under the pomegranate tree, which was in Magron: and the people with him were about six hundred men.
Nihenekenek’ añ’ ila’ i Gibeà añe t’i Saole ambane’ i ampongabendañitse e Migroney; va’e enen-jato t’indaty nirekets’ ama’e
3 And Achias the son of Achitob brother to Ichabod the son of Phinees, the son of Heli the priest of the Lord in Silo, wore the ephod. And the people knew not whither Jonathan was gone.
naho i Ahiià, ana’ i Ahitobe, rahalahi’ Ikabode, Ana’ i Pinekase, ana’i Elý mpisoro’ Iehovà e Silò ao, nisikiñe i kitambey. Le tsy napota’ ondatio te tsy teo t’Ionatane.
4 Now there were between the ascents, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks standing up on both sides, and steep cliffs like teeth on the one side, and on the other, the name of the one was Boses, and the name of the other was Sene:
Añivo’ i hebam-bohitse nipaia’ Ionatane hitsahañe mb’ amy firimboñam-Pilistiy mb’eoy ty tevañe vatoeñe añ’ ila’e raike naho ty tevam-bato añ’ila’e ka; i Bozeze ty añara’ ty raike, naho Seneke ty añara’ ty raike.
5 One rock stood out towards the north over against Machmas, and the other to the south over against Gabaa.
Nionjoñ’ añ’ila’e avaratse tandrife i Mikmase ty tevañe raike naho atimo tandrife i Geba ty ila’e.
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour: Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised, it may be the Lord will do for us, because it is easy for the Lord to save either by many, or by few.
Le hoe t’Ionatane amy ajalahy ninday o fikala’eoy: Antao, hitsake mb’ amy mpirai-lia’ o tsy sinavatseoy hera hañolotse antika t’Iehovà amy te tsy sebañeñe t’Iehovà handrombake he ami’ty maro ke ami’ty tsy ampe.
7 And his armourbearer said to him: Do all that pleaseth thy mind: go whither thou wilt, and I will be with thee wheresoever thou hast a mind.
Le hoe i mpinday fikala’ey: Anò iaby ze añ’arofo’o; mitoliha, hehe te ama’o iraho, ndra ino ty satrin’ arofo’o.
8 And Jonathan said: Behold we will go over to these men. And when we shall be seen by them,
Aa le hoe t’Ionatane, Inao! hitsake mb’ am’ ondaty reo tika, hiatreatre iareo.
9 If they shall speak thus to us: Stay till we come to you: let us stand still in our place, and not go up to them.
Aa naho anoe’ iareo ty hoe, Ey avao ampara’ te pok’ ama’ areo eo zahay; le hijohañe eo avao tika, fa tsy hiañambone mb’ ama’e.
10 But if they shall say: Come up to us: let us go up, because the Lord hath delivered them into our hands, this shall be a sign unto us.
F’ie manao ty hoe: Mionjona mb’ ama’ay mb’atoy. Le hionjomb’eo tika, fa tinolo’ Iehovà an-tañan-tika; izay ty ho viloñe aman-tika.
11 So both of them discovered themselves to the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said: Behold the Hebrews come forth out of the holes wherein they were hid.
Le nivotrak’ amy mpirai-liam-Pilistiy, iereo roe; le hoe ty asa’ o nte-Pilistio: Hehe te mipororoake boak’ an-koboñe fipalira’e ao o nte-Evreo.
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of Israel.
Aa le hoe ty asa’ ondati’ i mpirai-liaio am’ Ionatane naho i mpitàm-pikala’ey: Mionjona mb’ ama’ay mb’etoa, hanoroa’ay raha. Aa le hoe t’Ionatane amy mpitàm-pikala’ey, Oriho iraho te hionjoñe; fa natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ Israele iereo.
13 And Jonathan went up creeping on his hands and feet, and his armourbearer after him. And some fell before Jonathan, others his armourbearer slew as he followed him.
Aa le nanganike mb’eo am-pitàñe naho am-pandia t’Ionatane, le nañorike aze i mpinday fikala’ey; vaho nikorovoke aolo’ Ionatane iereo; le namono am-boho’e eo i mpinday fikala’ey.
14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was of about twenty men, within half an acre of land, which a yoke of oxen is wont to plough in a day.
Va’e roapolo ty zinama’ Ionatane naho i mpitàm-pikala’ey amy valoha’e zay, an-tampan-tonda mete ho folahe’ ty katràka roe an-dasarý.
15 And there was a miracle in the camp, through the fields: yea and all the people of their garrison, who had gone out to plunder, were amazed, and the earth trembled: and it happened as a miracle from God.
Inay ty fihondrahondràñe an-tobe ao naho an-kivoke ey, naho am’ ondaty iabio; i mpirai-liay naho o mpijoio songa nititititike vaho nanginikinike i taney; aa le nionjo ho firevendreveñañe aman’ Añahare.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were in Gabaa of Benjamin looked, and behold a multitude overthrown, and fleeing this way and that.
Tinalake’ o mpijilo’ i Saole e Gibeate-Beniamineo; le hehe te nitranak’ añe i valobohòkey nifanjevoñe avao.
17 And Saul said to the people that were with him: Look, and see who is gone from us. And when they had sought, it was found that Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.
Le hoe t’i Saole am’ondaty nirekets’ ama’eo: Volilio henaneo, haharendreke te ia ty nienga antika. Aa ie namolily, inao tsy eo t’Ionatane naho i mpinday fikala’ey.
18 And Saul said to Achias: Bring the ark of the Lord. (For the ark of God was there that day with the children of Israel.)
Aa le hoe t’i Saole amy Akià: Endeso mb’etoa ty vatam-pañinan’ Añahare. Amy te tamo ana’ Israeleo i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey henane zay.
19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great uproar in the camp of the Philistines: and it increased by degrees, and was heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest: Draw in thy hand.
Ie amy zao, naho nisaontsy amy mpisoroñey t’i Saole le nitolom-pivalitaboak’ an-tobe’e ao avao o nte-Pilistio vaho niindra; le nanao ty hoe amy mpisoroñey t’i Saole. Ahankaño o fità’oo.
20 Then Saul and all the people that were with him, shouted together, and they came to the place of the fight: and behold every man’s sword was turned upon his neighbour, and there was a very great slaughter.
Nifanontoñe eo rekets’ i valobohò’ey t’i Saole naho nionjom-ban-kotakotake mb’eo vaho nizoeñe te songa nifanjamañe am-pibara o mpirañetseo, nifamalitsikotake.
21 Moreover the Hebrews that had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and went up with them into the camp, returned to be with the Israelites, who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Ie amy zao nitolike hirekets’ amo ana’ Israele mpiamy Saole naho Ionataneo o nte-Evre niharo amo nte-Pilisty nimpindre fionjo ama’e mb’an-tobe ao boak’ am-pariparitse añe taoloo.
22 And all the Israelites that had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines fled, joined themselves with their countrymen in the fight. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.
Hambañe amy zay, o hene ondati’ Israele nietak’ am-bohibohi’ i Efraimeo; ie nahajanjiñe te nivoratsake mb’eo o nte-Pilistio, le nihoridà’ iareo fatratse am-pifandraparapahañe.
23 And the Lord saved Israel that day. And the fight went on as far as Bethaven.
Aa le rinomba’ Iehovà t’Israele amy andro zay, vaho nivelatse pak’ e Bete-avene i hotakotakey.
24 And the men of Israel were joined together that day; and Saul adjured the people, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat food till evening, till I be revenged of my enemies. So none of the people tasted any food:
Toe ni-ampoheke ondati’ Israeleo amy andro zay; ty amy fetse natao’ i Saole am’ondatio an-titike ty hoe: Fàtse t’indaty mikama ze atao haneñe am-para’ te hariva, hañondrohako an-drafelahiko ty avake. Aa le tsy eo ty nitsopeke mahakama.
25 And all the common people came into a forest, in which there was honey upon the ground.
Hene nitandroake mb’amy alay o an-tane eio, ie an-tane eo ty tantele.
26 And when the people came into the forest, behold the honey dropped, but no man put his hand to his mouth. For the people feared the oath.
Naho nizilik’ amy alay ondatio, hehe te nitsopetsopehen-tanteley, fa leo raik’ am’ondatio tsy nanao fitàñe am-palie amy fihembaña’ iareo i fetseiy.
27 But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people: and he put forth the end of the rod, which he had in his hand, and dipt it in a honeycomb: and he carried his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened.
Fe tsy napota’ Ionatane i fantok’ am-pàtse nanoen-drae’e am’ondatio; aa le natoho’e mb’eo ty kobay am-pità’e naho najo’e amy papi-tanteley, naho nanoe’e am-palie i fità’ey, vaho nahiratse o fihaino’eo.
28 And one of the people answering, said: Thy father hath bound the people with an oath, saying: Cursed be the man that shall eat any food this day. (And the people were faint.)
Aa le hoe ty asa’ ty raik’ am’ ondatio: Fa nafanton-drae’o am-pànta te: Fàtse ze ondaty mitsopeke mahakama anito; fe midazidazìtse ondatio.
29 And Jonathan said: My father hath troubled the land: you have seen yourselves that my eyes are enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey:
Le hoe t’Ionatane: Nanolo-tsotry amo taneo ty raeko: Hehe fa mahiratse o masokoo, ie nitsopeke amo tanteleo,
30 How much more if the people had eaten of the prey of their enemies, which they found? had there not been made a greater slaughter among the Philistines?
antsake te songa nidada am-pikamañe o raha kinopake nitendrek’ amo rafelahi’eoo ondatio. Tsy ho nimaro hao ty nizamañe amo nte-Pilistio?
31 So they smote that day the Philistines from Machmas to Ailon. And the people were wearied exceedingly.
Aa le linafa’ iareo o nte-Pilistio boake Mikmase pak’ Aialone añe; fe toe nikolempa ondatio.
32 And falling upon the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people ate them with the blood.
Niambotrak’ amy kinopakey ondatio, nandrambe añondry naho añombe naho sarake, naho linenta’ iareo an-tane, vaho nikama’ ondatio ie mbe aman-dio.
33 And they told Saul that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood. And he said: You have transgressed: roll here to me now a great stone.
Aa le natalily amy Saole, ty hoe: Inao! manao hakeo am’ Iehovà ondatio, mikama reke-dio. Le hoe re: Nandilatse nahareo: Amariño vato jabajaba amako aniany.
34 And Saul said: Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring me every man his ox and his ram, and slay them upon this stone, and eat, and you shall not sin against the Lord in eating with the blood. So all the people brought every man his ox with him till the night: and slew them there.
Le hoe t’i Saole: Tsitsiho ondatio le anò ty hoe: Songa mindesa vosy mb’ amako mb’etoa ondatio, sindre mindesa ty añondri’e ho lentaeñe etoa vaho ho kamae’e fa ko manao hakeo am’ Iehovà am-pikamàñ’ aze aman-dio. Aa le fonga ninday ty añombe’e mb’eo ondatio vaho nandenta aze eo.
35 And Saul built an altar to the Lord and he then first began to build an altar to the Lord.
Le namboatse kitrely am’Iehovà t’i Saole, toe ie ty kitrely valoha’e niranjie’e am’Iehovà.
36 And Saul said: Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and destroy them till the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And the people said: Do all that seemeth good in thy eyes. And the priest said: Let us draw near hither unto God.
Le hoe t’i Saole: Antao hizotso mb’ amo nte-Pilistio mb’eo haleñe hikopake ampara’ te porea’ ty maraindray, vaho tsy hapon-tika leo raik’ am’ondati’eo. Le hoe iereo: Ano ze satri’ ty arofo’o. Fa hoe i mpisoroñey, antao hey hañarine aman’ Añahare.
37 And Saul consulted the Lord: Shall I pursue after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not that day.
Aa le nihalaly fanoroañe aman’ Añahare t’i Saole: Hizotso mb’ amo nte-Pilistio hao iraho? Hatolo’o am-pità’ Israele hao? Fe tsy natoi’e amy andro zay.
38 And Saul said: Bring hither all the corners of the people: and know, and see by whom this sin hath happened today.
Le hoe t’i Saole: Miharinea iaby ry mpiaolo’ ondatio; itsikaraho ty nametsahañe i hakeo anindroaniy.
39 As the Lord liveth who is the saviour of Israel, if it was done by Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. In this none of the people gainsaid him.
Aa kanao veloñe t’Iehovà mpandrombake Israele, ndra t’ie am’ Ionatane ana-dahikoy, le toe havetrake. Fe leo raik’ am’ ondaty iabio tsy nanoiñe.
40 And he said to all Israel: Be you on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people answered Saul: Do what seemeth good in thy eyes.
Aa le hoe re amy Israele iaby: Añ’ila’e nahareo, vaho añ’ ila’e atoy iraho naho Ionatane anakoy. Le hoe ondatio amy Saole: Ano ze atao’o ho soa.
41 And Saul said to the Lord: O Lord God of Israel, give a sign, by which we may know, what the meaning is, that thou answerest not thy servant today. If this iniquity be in me, or in my son Jonathan, give a proof: or if this iniquity be in thy people, give holiness. And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.
Le hoe t’i Saole amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Taroño ty hato. Jinoboñe an-kitsapak’ amy zao t’Ionatane naho i Saole; le nivotsotse i màroy.
42 And Saul said: Cast lots between me, and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
Aa hoe t’i Saole: Ano an-tsapake ka, izaho naho Ionatane anako. Nivoa t’Ionatane.
43 And Saul said to Jonathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod, which was in my hand, and behold I must die.
Aa hoe t’i Saole am’ Ionatane: Atalilio ahiko o nanoe’oo. Le natalili’ Ionatane ama’e ty hoe: Toe nitsopeke tantele tsy ampe añ’ ilan-kobaiko an-tañako; intoy, izaho ty hikenkañe.
44 And Saul said: May God do so and so to me, and add still more: for dying thou shalt die, O Jonathan.
Le hoe t’i Saole: Ehe hanoan’ Añahare amako naho mandikoatse izay naho tsy hihomake irehe Ionatane.
45 And the people said to Saul: Shall Jonathan then die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This must not be. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground, for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he should not die.
Fe hoe ondatio amy Saole: Havetrake hao t’Ionatane, ie nañeneke fandrombahañe jabajaba e Israele atoa? Lavits’ aze izay; Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, leo raik’ amo maròy añ’ambone’eo tsy hihintsañe an-tane; amy t’ie nitoloñe an’ Andrianañahare anindroany. Aa le navotso’ ondatireo t’Ionatane tsy hihomake,
46 And Saul went back, and did not pursue after the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own places.
le nienga tsy nañorike o nte-Pilistio ka t’i Saole; vaho nimpoly mb’an-toe’e mb’eo o nte-Pilistio.
47 And Saul having his kingdom established over Israel, fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Soba, and the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he overcame.
Aa le rinambe i Saole ty fifeheañe Israele, naho nialia’e iaby mb’atia mb’eroa o rafelahi’eo; e Moabe naho amo ana’ i Amoneo, Edome naho amo mpanjaka’ i Tsobao, vaho amo nte-Pilistio; aa ndra aia ty nitoliha’e le nampisotrie’e.
48 And gathering together an army, he defeated Amalec, and delivered Israel from the hand of them that spoiled them.
Nanontoñe lahialen-dre le zinevo’e o nte Amalekeo vaho navotso’e am-pità’ o mpikopake iareoo t’Israele.
49 And the sons of Saul, were Jonathan, and Jessui, and Melchisua: and the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn was Merob, and the name of the younger Michol.
Zao o ana-dahi’ i Saoleo, Ionatane, naho Isvý vaho i Malki-soà; le ty añara’ ty anak’ ampela’e roe: i Merabe ty zoke’e, naho Mikale ty zai’e;
50 And the name of Saul’s wife, was Achinoam the daughter of Achimaas; and the name of the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, the cousin german of Saul.
naho ty tahinan-tañanjomba’ i Saole: i Akinoame, ana’ i Akimàtse; ty tahina’ i mpifeleke i valobohò’eiy: i Abnere, ana’ i Nere, anan-drahalahin-drae’ i Saole.
51 For Cis was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner, was son of Abiel.
I Kise ty rae’i Saole; vaho ana’ i Abiele t’i Nere rae’ i Abnere.
52 And there was a great war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. For whomsoever Saul saw to be a valiant man, and fit for war, he took him to himself.
Nitolom-pialy amo nte-Pilistio nainai’e t’i Saole amo hene andro’eo, aa ndra mb’ia nahaisake fanalolahy t’i Saole, le rinambe’e ho ama’e.
