< 1 Samuel 31 >

1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
Filisxeemonni yeroo kanatti Israaʼelitti waraana kaasan; Israaʼeloonnis isaan duraa baqatan; hedduun isaaniis Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti dhuman.
2 And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
Filisxeemonni ittuma jabeessanii Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa ariʼan; isaanis ilmaan isaa jechuunis Yoonaataan, Abiinaadaabii fi Malkii-Shuwaa ajjeesan.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, an the archers overtook him; and he was in great anguish by reason of the archers.
Lollis naannoo Saaʼolitti baayʼee cime; warri xiyyaan lolanis isa qaqqabanii akka malee isa madeessan.
4 Then said Saul to his armour-bearer: 'Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and make a mock of me.' But his armour-bearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
Saaʼolis namicha miʼa lolaa isaa baatuun, “Goraadee kee luqqifadhuutii na waraani; yoo kanaa achii namoonni dhagna hin qabamin kunneen dhufanii na waraananii natti taphatuu” jedhe. Namichi miʼa lolaa baatuuf sun garuu waan akka malee sodaateef isa hin waraanne; kanaafuu Saaʼol goraadee ofii isaa luqqifatee irratti kufe.
5 And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell upon his sword, and died with him.
Namichi miʼa lolaa baatu sun yommuu akka Saaʼol duʼe argetti innis goraadee ofii isaa irratti kufee Saaʼol wajjin duʼe.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, and all his men, that same day together.
Kanaafuu Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan, namichi miʼa lolaa baatuu fi namoonni isaa hundinuu gaafasuma walumaan dhuman.
7 And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they that were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
Israaʼeloonni qarqara sululaatii fi gama Yordaanos jiran yommuu akka loltoonni Israaʼel baqatanii fi akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaas dhuman arganitti magaalaawwan isaanii dhiisanii baqatan. Filisxeemonni immoo dhufanii keessa qubatan.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
Filisxeemonnis guyyaa itti aanutti yommuu warra dhuman irraa hidhannaa hiikkachuu dhufanitti, akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti kukkufanii jiran argan.
9 And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the tidings unto the house of their idols, and to the people.
Isaanis mataa Saaʼol irraa kutanii, miʼa lolaa isa irraa fudhatanii akka isaan mana waaqota tolfamoo isaanii keessattii fi saba isaaniitiif oduu kana labsaniif guutummaa biyya Filisxeemotaa keessa ergamoota ergan.
10 And they put his armour in the house of the Ashtaroth; and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan.
Isaanis miʼa lolaa isaa mana Ashtooreti waaqicha tolfamaa keessa kaaʼan; reeffa isaa immoo dallaa Beet Shaanitti hodhan.
11 And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul,
Namoonni Yaabeesh Giliʼaad yommuu waan Filisxeemonni Saaʼolin godhan dhagaʼanitti,
12 all the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan; and they came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.
namoonni jajjaboon isaanii hundi halkaniin kaʼanii dhaqanii reeffa Saaʼolii fi reeffa ilmaan isaa dallaa Beet Shaan irraa buusanii gara Yaabeeshitti fidanii achitti guban.
13 And they took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk-tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
Ergasii lafee isaanii fuudhanii Yaabeeshitti muka tamirii jalatti awwaalan; bultii torbas ni sooman.
