1 Samuel 5
1 Then the Philistims tooke the Arke of God and caried it from Eben-ezer vnto Ashdod,
Na rĩrĩ, Afilisti maarĩkia gũtaha ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai, makĩrĩruta kũu Ebeni-Ezeri, makĩrĩtwara Ashidodi.
2 Euen the Philistims tooke ye Arke of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
Magĩcooka magĩtwara ithandũkũ rĩu thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya ngai yao ĩrĩa yetagwo Dagoni, na makĩrĩiga rĩriganĩtie na Dagoni.
3 And when they of Ashdod rose the next day in the morning, beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the ground before the Arke of the Lord, and they tooke vp Dagon, and set him in his place againe.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Ashidodi mookĩrire rũciinĩ tene mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ-rĩ, magĩkora Dagoni ĩgũĩte ĩgakoma na nda hau mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova! Makĩoya Dagoni makĩmĩcookia handũ hayo.
4 Also they rose vp earely in the morning the next day, and beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the ground before the Arke of the Lord, and the head of Dagon and the two palmes of his hands were cut off vpon the thresholde: onely the stumpe of Dagon was left to him.
No mookĩra rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ-rĩ, magĩkora Dagoni ĩgũĩte ĩgakoma na nda hau mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova! Mũtwe na moko mayo meerĩ nĩcioinĩkĩte, ikagũa hau hingĩro-inĩ ya mũrango wa nyũmba; no mwĩrĩ wayo watigarĩte.
5 Therefore the Priests of Dagon, and all that come into Dagons house tread not on the thresholde of Dagon in Ashdod, vnto this day.
Nĩkĩo nginya ũmũthĩ gũtirĩ athĩnjĩri-ngai a Dagoni kana andũ angĩ matoonyaga hekarũ ya Dagoni kũu Ashidodi magereire hingĩro-inĩ ĩyo ya mũrango.
6 But the hand of the Lord was heauie vpon them of Ashdod, and destroyed them, and smote them with the emerods, both Ashdod, and the coastes thereof.
Nakuo guoko kwa Jehova gũkĩũmĩra andũ a Ashidodi na kũndũ kũrĩa kwariganĩtie nakuo; akĩmarehere mwanangĩko na akĩmahũũra na mĩrimũ ya mahũha.
7 And when the men of Ashdod sawe this, they sayd, Let not the Arke of the God of Israel abide with vs: for his hand is sore vpon vs and vpon Dagon our god.
Na rĩrĩa andũ a Ashidodi moonire ũrĩa gwekĩka, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ithandũkũ rĩa ngai ya Isiraeli rĩtigũikara na ithuĩ gũkũ gwitũ, nĩgũkorwo guoko gwake nĩgũtũũmĩire mũno hamwe na ngai iitũ Dagoni.”
8 They sent therefore and gathered all the princes of the Philistims vnto them, and sayde, What shall we doe with the Arke of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the Arke of the God of Israel be caried about vnto Gath: and they caried the Arke of the God of Israel about.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo magĩcookanĩrĩria aathani othe a Afilisti, makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Tũgwĩka atĩa na ithandũkũ rĩĩrĩ rĩa ngai ya Isiraeli?” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Rekei ithandũkũ rĩĩrĩ rĩa ngai ya Isiraeli rĩthaamĩrio Gathu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthaamia ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ngai wa Isiraeli.
9 And when they had caried it about, the hand of the Lord was against the citie with a very great destruction, and he smote the men of the citie both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret partes.
No rĩrĩ, maarĩkia kũrĩthaamĩria kuo, guoko kwa Jehova gũgĩũkĩrĩra itũũra rĩu inene, gũkĩgĩa kĩmako kĩnene. Akĩhũũra andũ a itũũra rĩu inene, arĩa ethĩ na arĩa akũrũ, akĩmarehere mĩrimũ ya mahũha.
10 Therefore they sent the Arke of God to Ekron: and assoone as the Arke of God came to Ekron, the Ekronites cryed out, saying, They haue brought the Arke of the God of Israel to vs to slay vs and our people.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtwara ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ngai Ekironi. Na rĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩu rĩatoonyaga Ekironi-rĩ, andũ a Ekironi makĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩmaarehe ithandũkũ rĩa ngai ya Isiraeli gũkũ gwitũ nĩguo matũũrage ithuĩ hamwe na andũ aitũ.”
11 Therefore they sent, and gathered together all the princes of the Philistims and sayd, Sende away the Arke of the God of Israel, and let it returne to his owne place, that it slay vs not and our people: for there was a destruction and death throughout all the citie, and the hand of God was very sore there.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo magĩcookanĩrĩria aathani othe a Afilisti makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Cookiai ithandũkũ rĩĩrĩ rĩa ngai ya Isiraeli rĩehere gũkũ; nĩrĩcookio kũrĩa riumĩte kana rĩtũũrage hamwe na andũ aitũ.” Nĩgũkorwo gĩkuũ nĩkĩaiyũrĩtie itũũra rĩu inene kĩmako; guoko kwa Ngai nĩ kwarĩũmĩire mũno.
12 And the men that dyed not, were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the citie went vp to heauen.
Nao arĩa mataakuire makĩhũũrwo na mĩrimũ ya mahũha, nakĩo kĩrĩro gĩa itũũra rĩu inene gĩgĩkinya o igũrũ kwa Ngai.
