< 1 Samuel 4 >

1 And Samuel spake vnto all Israel: and Israel went out against the Philistims to battel and pitched beside Eben-ezer: and the Philistims pitched in Aphek.
Na puta mai ana te kupu a Hamuera ki a Iharaira katoa. Na ka haere a Iharaira ki te whawhai ki nga Pirihitini, a ka noho a puni ki Epeneetere; a i noho te puni o nga Pirihitini ki Apeke.
2 And the Philistims put themselues in aray against Israel: and when they ioyned the battell, Israel was smitten downe before the Philistims: who slewe of the armie in the fielde about foure thousand men.
Na ka whakaritea e nga Pirihitini a ratou ngohi hei whawhai ki a Iharaira: a ka horapa haere te whawhai, na ka patua a Iharaira e nga Pirihitini: e wha mano tangata o te ope i patua ki te parae.
3 So when the people were come into the campe, the Elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath the Lord smitten vs this day before ye Philistims? let vs bring the Arke of the couenant of the Lord out of Shiloh vnto vs, that when it commeth among vs, it may saue vs out of the hande of our enemies.
A, no te taenga o nga tangata ki te puni, ka mea nga kaumatua o Iharaira, He aha tatou i patua ai e Ihowa inaianei i te aroaro o nga Pirihitini? Me tiki atu ki a tatou te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa i Hiro, kia tae mai ki roto i a tatou, hei whaka ora i a tatou i te ringa o o tatou hoariri.
4 Then the people sent to Shiloh, and brought from thence the Arke of the couenant of the Lord of hostes, who dwelleth betweene the Cherubims: and there were the two sonnes of Eli, Hophni, and Phinehas, with the Arke of the couenant of God.
Heoi ka tonoa e te iwi ki Hiro, a ka mauria mai i reira te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa o nga mano e noho nei i runga i nga kerupima: i reira ano nga tama tokorua a Eri, a Hoponi raua ko Pinehaha, i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa.
5 And when the Arke of the couenant of the Lord came into the hoste, all Israel shouted a mightie shoute, so that the earth rang againe.
A, i te taenga mai o te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa ki te puni, ka hamama a Iharaira katoa, he nui te hamama, a ngateri ana te whenua.
6 And when the Philistims heard the noyse of the shoute, they said, What meaneth the sound of this mightie shoute in the host of the Ebrewes? and they vnderstoode, that the Arke of the Lord was come into the hoste.
A ka rongo nga Pirihitini i te reo e hamama ana, ka mea ratou, He reo aha tenei e nui nei te hamama i te puni o nga Hiperu? Na ka mohio ratou kua tae mai te aaka a Ihowa ki te puni.
7 And the Philistims were afraide, and saide, God is come into the hoste: therefore saide they, Wo vnto vs: for it hath not bene so heretofore.
Na ka wehi nga Pirihitini; i mea hoki, Kua tae te Atua ki roto i te puni. Na ka mea ratou, Aue, te mate mo tatou! kahore hoki he mea penei me tenei i mua ake nei.
8 Wo vnto vs, who shall deliuer vs out of the hande of these mightie Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wildernes.
Aue, te mate mo tatou! ma wai tatou e whakaora i roto i te ringa o enei atua nui? ko nga atua enei nana nga whakapanga mate katoa i patua ai nga Ihipiana i te koraha.
9 Be strong and play the men, O Philistims, that ye be not seruants vnto the Ebrewes, as they haue serued you: be valiant therefore, and fight.
Kia maia, whakatane i a koutou, e nga Pirihitini, kei whakataurerekatia koutou e nga Hiperu, kei peratia me ratou i whakataurerekatia na e koutou: na, me whakatane koutou, me whawhai.
10 And the Philistims fought, and Israel was smitten downe, and fled euery man into his tent: and there was an exceeding great slaughter: for there fell of Israel thirtie thousand footemen.
Na ka whawhai nga Pirihitini, a patua ana a Iharaira, a rere ana ki tona teneti, ki tona teneti: he tino nui rawa te parekua; e toru tekau mano hoki o Iharaira i hinga, he hunga haere raro.
11 And the Arke of God was taken, and the two sonnes of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas died.
Na riro ana te aaka a te Atua; i mate hoki a Hoponi raua ko Pinehaha, nga tama tokorua a Eri.
12 And there ranne a man of Beniamin out of the armie, and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head.
Na ka rere tetahi tangata o Pineamine i te ope, tae tonu atu ki Hiro i taua ra ano, he mea haehae ona kakahu, he oneone hoki i runga i tona matenga.
13 And when hee came, loe, Eli sate vpon a seate by the wayside, wayting: for his heart feared for the Arke of God and when the man came into the citie to tell it, all the citie cried out.
A, no tona taenga, na e noho ana a Eri i runga i te nohoanga i te taha o te ara, e tutei atu ana: he pawera hoki no tona ngakau mo te aaka a te Atua. A ka tae taua tangata ki te pa, ka korero, na hamama katoa ana te pa.
14 And when Eli heard the noyse of the crying, he sayd, What meaneth this noyse of the tumult? and the man came in hastily, and tolde Eli.
A ka rongo a Eri i te reo e hamama ana, ka mea ia, He reo aha tenei e ngangau nei? Na hohoro tonu taua tangata, a kua tae, kua korero ki a Eri.
15 (Nowe Eli was fourescore and eighteene yeere olde, and his eyes were dimme that hee could not see)
Na e iwa tekau ma waru nga tau o Eri; kua maro hoki ona kanohi, te ahei ia te kite.
16 And the man sayd vnto Eli, I came from the armie, and I fled this day out of the hoste: and he sayd, What thing is done, my sonne?
Na ka mea taua tangata ki a Eri, Ko ahau tenei i puta mai i roto i te ope, i rere tonu mai inaianei i te ope. Ka mea tera, I pehea te mea ra, e taku tama?
17 Then the messenger answered and sayd, Israel is fled before the Philistims, and there hath bene also a great slaughter among the people: and moreouer thy two sonnes, Hophni and Phinehas are dead, and the Arke of God is taken.
Na ka whakaatu a ia i kawea mai nei nga korero, ka mea, I rere a Iharaira i te aroaro o nga Pirihitini, he nui hoki te parekura o te iwi; a ko au tama tokorua, ko Hoponi, raua ko Pinehaha, kua mate; kua riro ano hoki te aaka a te Atua.
18 And when he had made mention of the Arke of God, Eli fell from his seate backward by the side of the gate, and his necke was broken, and he dyed: for he was an olde man and heauie: and he had iudged Israel fourtie yeeres.
A, no tana whakahuatanga i te aaka a te Atua, hinga ana tera ki muri i runga i te nohoanga, ki te taha o te kuwaha, a whati iho tona kaki, mate ake: he koroheke hoki ia, he taimaha. Na e wha tekau nga tau i whakarite ai ia mo Iharaira.
19 And his daughter in lawe Phinehas wife was with childe neere her trauell: and when she heard the report that the Arke of God was taken, and that her father in lawe and her husband were dead, she bowed her selfe, and trauailed: for her paines came vpon her.
Na e hapu ana tana hunaonga, te wahine a Pinehaha, meake whanau: a, no tona rongonga i te korero o te aaka a te Atua kua riro, o te matenga ano o tona hungawai raua ko tana tahu, ka piko iho ia, ka whanau; i pa whakarere mai hoki te mamae ki a i a.
20 And about the time of her death, the women that stoode about her, sayd vnto her, Feare not: for thou hast borne a sonne: but she answered not, nor regarded it.
A i a ia e whakahemohemo ana, ka mea nga wahine e tu ana i tona taha, Kaua e wehi; he tane hoki tenei tamaiti au. Heoi kahore ana kupu i whakahoki ai, kihai ano hoki i anga mai tona ngakau.
21 And she named the childe Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel, because the Arke of God was taken, and because of her father in lawe and her husband.
Na huaina iho e ia te tama ko Ikaporo, i mea, Kua heke te kororia o Iharaira: no te mea kua riro te aaka a te Atua, mo tona hungawai hoki raua ko tana tahu.
22 She sayde againe, The glory is departed from Israel: for the Arke of God is taken.
I mea ano ia, Kua heke te kororia o Iharaira; kua riro nei hoki te aaka a te Atua.
