1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered together their armies to be prepared for war against Israel: and Achis said to David: Know thou now assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to the war, thou, and thy men.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany ny Filistina dia namory ny miaramilany hanafika ny Isiraely. Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ i Davida: Aoka ho fantatrao tsara fa hiara-mivoaka amiko hanafika ianao sy ny olonao.
2 And David said to Achis: Now thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Achis said to David: And I will appoint thee to guard my life for ever.
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Akisy: Amin’ izao dia ho fantatrao tokoa izay hain’ ny mpanomponao hatao. Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ i Davida: Noho izany dia hataoko mpiaro ny lohako mandrakizay ianao.
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel mourned for him, and buried him in Ramatha his city. And Saul had put away all the magicians and soothsayers out of the land.
(Ary efa maty Samoela, ka ny Isiraely rehetra efa nisaona azy sy nandevina azy tao Rama, dia tao an-tanànany. Ary efa noroahin’ i Saoly hiala amin’ ny tany izay nanao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana.)
4 And the Philistines were gathered together, and came and camped in Sunam: and Saul also gathered together all Israel, and came to Gelboe.
Ary ny Filistina nivory, dia tonga ka nitoby tao Sonema; fa Saoly namory ny Isiraely rehetra, ka nitoby tao Gilboa kosa ireo.
5 And Saul saw the army of the Plilistines, and was afraid, and his heart was very much dismayed.
Ary Saoly, raha nahita ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina, dia raiki-tahotra sady niemponempona ny fony.
6 And he consulted the Lord, and he answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by priests, nor by prophets.
Ary Saoly dia nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah, fa Jehovah tsy namaly azy, na tamin’ ny nofy, na tamin’ ny Orima, na tamin’ ny mpaminany.
7 And Saul said to his servants: Seek me a woman that hath a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and inquire by her. And his servants said to him: There is a woman that hath a divining spirit at Endor.
Ary hoy Saoly tamin’ ny mpanompony: Itadiavo vehivavy manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra aho hankanesako any hanontaniako aminy. Ary hoy ny mpanompony taminy: Indro, misy vehivavy manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra eo Andora.
8 Then he disguised himself: and put on other clothes, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night, and he said to her: Divine to me by thy divining spirit, and bring me up him whom I shall tell thee.
Dia nanova tarehy Saoly ka nitafy fitafiana hafa, dia nandeha izy sy ny olona roa lahy nanaraka azy ka tonga tao amin-dravehivavy nony alina; ary hoy izy: Masìna ianao, manaova fankatovana ho ahy amin’ ny zavatra manindry anao, ka ampiakaro ho etỳ amiko izay hotononiko aminao.
9 And the woman said to him: Behold thou knowest all that Saul hath done, and how he hath rooted out the magicians and soothsayers from the land: why then dost thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to be put to death?
Ary hoy ravehivavy taminy: Indro, fantatrao izay nataon’ i Saoly, dia ny nandroahany ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana hiala amin’ ny tany, ka nahoana ianao no mamandrika ny aiko hahafaty ahy?
10 And Saul swore unto her by the Lord, saying: As the Lord liveth there shall no evil happen to thee for this thing.
Ary Saoly nianiana tamin’ i Jehovah ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia tsy hisy heloka hahazo anao amin’ izao zavatra izao.
11 And the woman said to him: Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
Dia hoy ravehivavy: Iza ary no hampiakariko ho eto aminao? Ary hoy izy: Samoela no ampiakaro ho etỳ amiko.
12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice, and said to Saul: Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul.
Ary hitan-dravehivavy Samoela, dia nidradradradra tamin’ ny feo mafy izy ka nanao tamin’ i Saoly hoe: Nahoana no namitaka ahy ianao? fa ianao no Saoly.
13 And the king said to her: Fear not: what hast thou seen? And the woman said to Saul: I saw gods ascending out of the earth.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Aza matahotra; fa inona no hitanao? Ary hoy ravehivavy tamin’ i Saoly: Andriamanitra miakatra avy amin’ ny tany no hitako.
14 And he said to her: What form is he of? And she said: An old man cometh up, and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul understood that it was Samuel, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground, and adored.
Ary hoy izy taminy: Manao ahoana no endriny? Dia hoy izy: Lehilahy antitra no miakatra sady mikapôty izy. Ary fantatr’ i Saoly fa Samoela izay, dia niondrika tamin’ ny tany izy ka niankohoka.
15 And Samuel said to Saul: Why hast thou disturbed my rest, that I should be brought up? And Saul said, I am in great distress: for the Philistines fight against me, and God is departed from me, and would not hear me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest shew me what I shall do.
Ary hoy Samoela tamin’ i Saoly: Nahoana no korontaninao aho ka ampiakarinao? Dia hoy Saoly: Tery loatra aho, fa miady amiko ny Filistina, ary Andriamanitra efa nahafoy ahy ka tsy mamaly teny ahy intsony, na amin’ ny mpaminany, na amin’ ny nofy; koa izany no nampanalako anao mba hampahalalanao ahy izay hataoko.
16 And Samuel said: Why askest thou me, seeing the Lord has departed from thee, and is gone over to thy rival:
Ary hoy Samoela: Nahoana no manontany amiko ianao, nefa Jehovah efa mahafoy anao ka tonga fahavalonao.
17 For the Lord will do to thee as he spoke by me, and he will rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and will give it to thy neighbour David:
Fa Jehovah efa nanao ho Azy araka ny nampilazainy ahy; fa efa nendahany hiala amin’ ny tananao ny fanjakana ka nomeny an’ i Davida namanao.
18 Because thou didst not obey the voice of the Lord, neither didst thou execute the wrath of his indignation upon Amalec. Therefore hath the Lord done to thee what thou sufferest this day.
Satria tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah ianao ka tsy nahatanteraka ny fahatezerany mirehitra tamin’ ny Amalekita, dia izany no nanaovan’ i Jehovah izao zavatra izao taminao androany.
19 And the Lord also will deliver Israel with thee into the hands of the Philistines: and tomorrow thou and thy sons shall be with me: and the Lord will also deliver the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.
Ary hiaraka hatolotr’ i Jehovah ho eo an-tànan’ ny Filistina ny tenanao sy ny Isiraely; ary rahampitso dia ho etỳ amiko ianao sy ny zanakao; ary ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely koa dia hatolotr’ i Jehovah eo an-tànan’ ny Filistina.
20 And forthwith Saul fell all along on the ground, for he was frightened with the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all that day.
Dia lavo niampatra tamin’ ny tany niaraka tamin’ izay Saoly ka raiki-tahotra indrindra noho ny tenin’ i Samoela; sady efa tsy nisy hery intsony izy, satria tsy nihinan-kanina indray andro sy indray alina maninjitra.
21 And the woman came to Saul (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me.
Ary nankao amin’ i Saoly ravehivavy ka nahita azy ory indrindra, dia nanao taminy hoe: Indro, ny ankizivavinao nihaino ny feonao, dia nanao ny aiko tsy ho zavatra aho ka nihaino ny teninao izay nolazainao tamiko.
22 Now therefore hear thou also the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of bread, that thou mayest eat and recover strength, and be able to go on thy journey.
Koa ankehitriny, masìna ianao, mba henoy kosa ny tenin’ ny ankizivavinao, ary aoka aho handroso sombin-kanina kely eo anoloanao; dia hano izany mba hahatanjaka anao, raha handeha amin’ ny alehanao ianao.
23 But he refused, and said: I will not eat. But his servants and the woman forced him, and at length hearkening to their voice, he arose from the ground and sat upon the bed.
Fa tsy nety izy, fa hoy izy: Tsy hihinana aho. Fa ny mpanompony sy ravehivavy mbola nanery azy ihany, ka dia nihaino ny feony izy. Dia nitsangana izy ka nipetraka teo am-parafara.
24 Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she made haste and killed it: and taking meal kneaded it, and baked some unleavened bread,
Ary ravehivavy nanana zanak’ omby mifahy tao an-trano; dia nandeha haingana izy ka namono izany, ary naka koba izy, dia nofetafetainy ka nendasiny ho mofo tsy misy masirasira.
25 And set it before Saul, and before his servants. And when they had eaten they rose up, and walked all that night.
Ary narosony teo anoloan’ i Saoly sy teo anoloan’ ny mpanompony izany; dia nihinana izy ireo, ary dia niainga ka lasa nandeha tamin’ iny alina iny ihany.
