1 Samuel 6
1 So the Arke of the Lord was in the countrey of the Philistims seuen moneths.
Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ nọrọ nʼobodo ndị Filistia ọnwa asaa.
2 And the Philistims called the priests and the soothsayers, saying, What shall we doe with the Arke of the Lord? tell vs wherewith we shall send it home againe.
Emesịa, ndị Filistia kpọrọ ndị nchụaja ha na ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ase jụọ ha sị, “Gịnị ka anyị ga-eme banyere igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị? Gwa anyị otu anyị ga-esi zilaga ya nʼala ya.”
3 And they sayd, If you send away the Arke of the God of Israel, send it not away emptie, but giue vnto it a sinne offering: then shall ye be healed, and it shall be knowen to you, why his hand departeth not from you.
Ndị ahụ zara sị, “Ọ bụrụ na unu ezighachi igbe ọgbụgba ndụ chi ndị Izrel, unu ezighachila ya nʼaka efu, kama jirinụ onyinye aja ikpe ọmụma zilaga ya. Unu mee nke a, ihe otiti ndị a ga-ala. Unu ga-amatakwa ihe mere o ji na-ata unu ahụhụ ndị a.”
4 Then sayd they, What shalbe the sinne offring, which we shall giue vnto it? And they answered, Fiue golden emerods and fiue golden mise, according to the number of the princes of the Philistims: for one plague was on you all, and on your princes.
Ha jụrụ, “Olee ụdị onyinye aja ikpe ọmụma anyị ga-enye.” A gwara ha, “Dịka ọnụọgụgụ ndịisi obodo Filistia si dị ise, unu ga-eziga onyinye oyiyi etuto ise nke e jiri ọlaedo kpụọ na oyiyi oke ise nke e jikwa ọlaedo kpụọ, nʼihi na ọ bụ otu ụdị ihe otiti ahụ ka o ji tie unu na ndịisi obodo unu niile.
5 Wherefore ye shall make the similitudes of your emerods, and the similitudes of your mise that destroy the land: so ye shall giue glory vnto the God of Israel, that he may take his hand from you, and from your gods, and from your land.
Jiri ọlaedo kpụọ oyiyi etuto na oke ndị ahụ na-emebi ala unu, si otu a nye chi ndị Izrel nsọpụrụ. Ma eleghị anya ọ ga-ewezuga aka ike ya site nʼebe unu na chi unu dị iche iche na ala unu nọ.
6 Wherefore then should ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let them goe, and they departed?
Gịnị mere unu ga-eji nyịchie obi unu dịka ndị Ijipt na Fero mere? Mgbe Chineke mesiri ha ike, ọ bụ na ha ahapụghị ndị Izrel ka ha laa?
7 Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milch kine, on whome there hath come no yoke: and tye the kine to the cart, and bring the calues home from them.
“Wuonụ ụgbọala ọhụrụ, werekwanụ nne ehi abụọ na-enye ụmụ ara kegide nʼụgbọ ahụ. Ehi ndị a ga-abụ ndị a na-ejibeghị kọọ ọrụ ubi mbụ. Mgbe unu kegidere ehi ndị a, chịrịnụ ụmụ ha chụba ha nʼebe a na-edebe ehi.
8 Then take the Arke of the Lord, and set it vpon the cart, and put the iewels of gold which ye giue it for a sinne offering in a coffer by the side thereof, and send it away, that it may go.
Werenụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị tinye nʼụgbọala ahụ, tinyekwa ihe ọlaedo ndị ahụ unu na-enye ka ọ bụrụ aja ikpe ọmụma unu nʼime igbe nta unu ga-etinye nʼakụkụ ya. Zilaganụ ya nʼụzọ ọ ga-agbaso.
9 And take heede, if it goe vp by the way of his owne coast to Beth-shemesh, it is he that did vs this great euill: but if not, we shall know then, that it is not his hand that smote vs, but it was a chance that happened vs.
Ma guzonụ na-ele ya anya. Ọ bụrụ na ọ gafee oke ala anyị banye Bet-Shemesh, unu ga-amata na ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị mere ka ihe ọjọọ ndị a dakwasị anyị. Ma ọ bụrụ na o meghị otu a, ọ bụrụ na ọ lọghachi, anyị ga-amata na ihe otiti a bụ naanị ihe ndaba nke dakwasịrị anyị, o sikwaghị nʼaka Onyenwe anyị.”
10 And the men did so: for they tooke two kine that gaue milke, and tied them to the cart, and shut the calues at home.
Ha were dịka okwu ndị a si dị. Ha weere nne ehi abụọ na-enye ụmụ ara kegide ha nʼụgbọala ahụ, werekwa ụmụ ha kpọchie nʼọgba anụ.
11 So they set the Arke of the Lord vpon the cart, and the coffer with the mise of golde, and with the similitudes of their emerods.
Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na igbe nta ahụ e tinyere oke na oyiyi etuto ọlaedo ndị ahụ a kpụrụ akpụ ka ha dọkwasịrị nʼelu ụgbọala ahụ.
12 And the kine went the streight way to Beth-shemesh, and kept one path and lowed as they went, and turned neither to the right hand nor to the left: also the Princes of the Philistims went after them, vnto the borders of Beth-shemesh.
Ehi ndị ahụ dọkpụrụ ụgbọ ahụ gawa nʼụzọ Bet-Shemesh. Ha na-ebekwa muuu mgbe ha na-aga. Ha sogidere ụzọ ahụ na-aga. Ha echigharịghị gaa aka nri maọbụ aka ekpe. Ndị eze ndị Filistia sogidekwara ha nʼazụ tutu rute nʼoke ala Bet-Shemesh.
13 Nowe they of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheate haruest in the valley, and they lift vp their eyes, and spied the Arke, and reioyced when they sawe it.
Nʼoge a, ndị Bet-Shemesh nọ nʼubi na-ewe ihe ubi nke ọka wiiti na ndagwurugwu ala ahụ. Mgbe ha lepụrụ anya hụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, ọṅụ juru ha obi.
14 And the cart came into the fielde of Ioshua a Beth-shemite, and stood still there. There was also a great stone, and they claue the wood of the cart, and offered the kine for a burnt offring vnto the Lord.
Mgbe ụgbọala ahụ batara nʼubi nwoke a na-akpọ Joshua na Bet-Shemesh, ọ kwụsịrị nʼakụkụ otu nkume ukwu dị nʼebe ahụ. Ngwangwa, ndị nọ nʼebe ahụ gbuwasịrị osisi e ji mee ụgbọ ahụ, gbukwaa ehi abụọ ahụ, were ha chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ.
15 And the Leuites tooke downe the Arke of the Lord, and the coffer that was with it, wherein the iewels of golde were, and put them on the great stone, and the men of Beth-shemesh offred burnt offring, and sacrificed sacrifices that same day vnto the Lord.
Ndị ikom Livayị nọ nʼebe ahụ buliri igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na igbe nta ahụ dị nʼakụkụ ya nke ọlaedo niile a kpụrụ akpụ dị nʼime ya, dọkwasị ha nʼelu nkume. Ndị Bet-Shemesh chụrụ ọtụtụ aja nsure ọkụ na aja ndị ọzọ nye Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ahụ.
16 And when the fiue Princes of ye Philistims had seene it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
Mgbe ndị eze ise obodo ndị Filistia hụrụ ihe mere, ha laghachiri nʼEkrọn nʼụbọchị ahụ.
17 So these are the golden emerods, which the Philistims gaue for a sinne offering to the Lord: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, and for Ekron one,
Onyinye etuto ọlaedo ise a kpụrụ akpụ nke ha nyere Onyenwe anyị dị ka aja ikpe ọmụma nʼihi ihe mere ha bụ maka obodo ndị Filistia ndị a, Ashdọd, Gaza, Ashkelọn, Gat na Ekrọn.
18 And golden mise, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistims, belonging to the fiue princes, both of walled townes, and of townes vnwalled, vnto the great stone of Abel, whereon they set the Arke of the Lord: which stone remaineth vnto this day in the fielde of Ioshua the Beth-shemite.
Ha wetakwara oke ọlaedo a dịka ọnụọgụgụ obodo ndị Filistia si dị, bụ nke ndịisi ise ahụ nwere, obodo ndị e wusiri ike, na obodo nta niile ha. Nkume ukwu ahụ ebe a dọkwasịrị igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, bụ ihe akaebe nʼubi Joshua, onye Bet-Shemesh ruo taa.
19 And hee smote of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked in the Arke of the Lord: he slew euen among the people fiftie thousand men and three score and ten men. and the people lamented, because the Lord had slaine the people with so great a slaughter.
Ma Onyenwe anyị tigburu iri ndị ikom asaa nʼetiti ndị Bet-Shemesh nʼihi na ha nyobara anya nʼime igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ. Nʼihi ya ndị Bet-Shemesh ruru ụjụ nʼihi ndị ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị tigburu.
20 Wherefore the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy Lord God? and to whom shall he go from vs?
Ndị Bet-Shemesh jụrụ sị, “Onye pụrụ iguzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke a dị nsọ? Olee ebe anyị ga-ezigakwa igbe ọgbụgba ndụ a?”
21 And they sent messengers to the inhabitans of Kiriath-iearim, saying, The Philistims haue brought againe the Arke of the Lord: come ye downe and take it vp to you.
Ha zipụrụ ndị ozi ka ha gaa gwa ndị Kiriat Jearim sị ha, “Ndị Filistia ezighachila igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị. Bịanụ buru ya gaa nʼobodo unu.”
