1 Samuel 5
1 Then the Philistims tooke the Arke of God and caried it from Eben-ezer vnto Ashdod,
Mgbe ndị Filistia buuru igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, ha si Ebeneza buru ya buga Ashdọd.
2 Euen the Philistims tooke ye Arke of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
Ha butere igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, buba ya nʼime ụlọ Dagọn, dọba ya nʼakụkụ Dagọn.
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.
Mgbe ndị Ashdọd tetara nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, ma lee, Dagọn adaala, kpuo ihu ya nʼala nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị. Ha bulikwara Dagọn elu doghachi ya nʼọnọdụ ya.
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.
Ma nʼụtụtụ echi ya, Dagọn adakwala kpuo ihu nʼala nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị. Isi ya na aka ya abụọ dakapụrụ, tọgbọrọ na mbata ọnụ ụzọ, Ọ bụkwa naanị ogwe ahụ ya fọdụrụ.
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.
Ọ bụ nke a mere, site mgbe ahụ ruo taa, ndị nchụaja Dagọn na ndị niile na-abata nʼụlọ Dagọn, adịghị azọ ụkwụ ha nʼọnụ ụzọ mbata ụlọ Dagọn dị nʼAshdọd.
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.
Aka Onyenwe anyị malitere ịdị arọ nʼahụ ndị Ashdọd, ha na obodo ndị ọzọ gbara ya gburugburu, o ji etuto dị iche iche menye ha egwu ma bibiekwa ha nʼAshdọd nʼoke ala ya niile.
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.
Mgbe ndị Ashdọd hụrụ ihe na-eme, ha sịrị, “Anyị achọghị ka igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke nke Izrel dịrị nʼetiti anyị, nʼihi na aka ya dị ike nʼahụ anyị, otu aka ahụkwa na chi anyị Dagọn.”
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.
Ya mere, ha ziri ozi kpọkọta ndịisi ndị Filistia niile, jụọ ha sị, “Gịnị ka anyị ga-eme igbe chi ndị Izrel?” Ha zara, “Ka e buru igbe chi ndị Izrel buga ya nʼobodo Gat.” Ya mere ha buuru igbe Chineke nke Izrel buga Gat.
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.
Ma mgbe ha bubatara ya na Gat, akaOnyenwe anyị malitere imegide obodo ahụ. O tinyere ndị obodo ahụ nʼọnọdụ oke egwu. O tiri ndị bi nʼobodo ahụ ihe otiti, ma nwantakịrị ma dimkpa, etuto dị iche iche toro ha nʼahụ.
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.
Ya mere, ha zilara igbe ahụ Ekrọn. Ma mgbe igbe ahụ na-abata Ekrọn, ndị Ekrọn kwara akwa sị, “Ha e burula igbe ọgbụgba ndụ chi ndị Izrel butere anyị, ka anyị na ndị anyị nwụsịa!”
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.
Ya mere, ha kpọkọtara ndịisi ndị Filistia niile sị ha, “Sinụ nʼobodo zipụ igbe chi ndị Izrel, maọbụ zighachinụ ya nʼobodo e si bute ya na mbụ, ka ọ hapụ igbuchapụ anyị na ndị anyị.” Nʼihi egwu maka ọnwụ ejidela ndị niile bi nʼobodo. Aka Chineke dịkwa ike nke ukwuu megide obodo ahụ.
12 And the men that dyed not, were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the citie went vp to heauen.
Ndị na-anwụghị ka e mere ka etuto jupụta ha nʼahụ, mkpu akwa nke ndị obodo ahụ ruru eluigwe.
