< 1 Samuel 13 >

1 When Saul had reigned one year, —and two years he reigned over Israel, —
Saulu sì jẹ́ ọmọ ọgbọ̀n ọdún nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní ọdún méjìlélógójì.
2 Saul chose for himself three thousand men out of Israel; and there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and on the mountain of Beth-el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gib'ah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent away every man to his tents.
Saulu yan ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin ní Israẹli, ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì sì wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ ní Mikmasi àti ní ìlú òkè Beteli ẹgbẹ̀rún kan sì wà lọ́dọ̀ Jonatani ní Gibeah ti Benjamini. Àwọn ọkùnrin tókù ni ó rán padà sí ilé e wọn.
3 And Jonathan smote the outpost of the Philistines that was at Geba', and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the cornet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear it.
Jonatani sì kọlu ẹgbẹ́ ogun àwọn Filistini ní Gibeah, Filistini sì gbọ́ èyí. Nígbà náà ni Saulu fọn ìpè yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà ká, ó sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí àwọn Heberu gbọ́!”
4 And all Israel heard it, saying, Saul hath smitten the outpost of the Philistines, and the Israelites also have put themselves in ill-favor with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo Israẹli sì gbọ́ ìròyìn pé, “Saulu ti kọlu ẹgbẹ́ ogun àwọn Filistini, Israẹli sì di òórùn búburú fún àwọn Filistini.” Àwọn ènìyàn náà sì péjọ láti darapọ̀ mọ́ Saulu ní Gilgali.
5 And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea-shore in multitude; and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.
Àwọn Filistini kó ara wọn jọ pọ̀ láti bá Israẹli jà, pẹ̀lú ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta kẹ̀kẹ́, ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́fà ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin, àwọn ológun sì pọ̀ bí yanrìn etí Òkun. Wọ́n sì gòkè lọ, wọ́n dó ní Mikmasi ní ìhà ilẹ̀ oòrùn Beti-Afeni.
6 And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, [for the people were oppressed, ] then did the people hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in strongholds, and in pits.
Nígbà tí àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sì rí i pé àwọn wà nínú ìpọ́njú àti pé àwọn ológun wọn wà nínú ìhámọ́, wọ́n fi ara pamọ́ nínú ihò àti nínú igbó láàrín àpáta, nínú ọ̀fìn, àti nínú kànga gbígbẹ.
7 And some of the Hebrews passed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gil'ad. As for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him hastily.
Àwọn Heberu mìíràn tilẹ̀ kọjá a Jordani sí ilẹ̀ Gadi àti Gileadi. Saulu wà ní Gilgali síbẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sì ń wárìrì fún ìbẹ̀rù.
8 And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed; but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattering themselves from him.
Ó sì dúró di ọjọ́ méje, àkókò tí Samuẹli dá; ṣùgbọ́n Samuẹli kò wá sí Gilgali, àwọn ènìyàn Saulu sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní túká.
9 And Saul said, Bring hither to me the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings. And he offered the burnt-offering.
Saulu sì wí pé, “Ẹ mú ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ìrẹ́pọ̀ wá fún mi.” Saulu sì rú ẹbọ sísun náà.
10 And it came to pass, that, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt-offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.
Bí ó sì ti ń parí rírú ẹbọ sísun náà, Samuẹli sì dé, Saulu sì jáde láti lọ kí i.
11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done: And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattering themselves from me, whereas thou camest not at the appointed day, and the Philistines are gathering themselves together at Michmash;
Samuẹli sì wí pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ṣe yìí.” Saulu sì dáhùn pé, “Nígbà tí mo rí pé àwọn ènìyàn náà ń túká, àti tí ìwọ kò sì wá ní àkókò ọjọ́ tí ìwọ dá, tí àwọn Filistini sì kó ara wọ́n jọ ní Mikmasi,
12 And I said, The Philistines will now come down unto me to Gilgal, and I have not yet made supplication unto the Lord: wherefore I forced myself, and offered the burnt-offering.
mo rò pé, ‘Àwọn Filistini yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ̀ mí wá ní Gilgali nísinsin yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò ì tí ì wá ojúrere Olúwa.’ Báyìí ni mo mú ara mi ní ipá láti rú ẹbọ sísun náà.”
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he had commanded thee; for now would the Lord have established thy government over Israel for ever.
Samuẹli sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ hu ìwà aṣiwèrè, ìwọ kò sì pa òfin tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fi fún ọ mọ́; bí o kò bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, òun ìbá fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ kalẹ̀ lórí Israẹli láéláé.
14 But now thy government shall not endure: the Lord hath sought out for himself a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath ordained him to be chief over his people; because thou hast not kept what the Lord had commanded thee.
Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ìjọba rẹ kì yóò dúró pẹ́, Olúwa ti wá ọkùnrin tí ó wù ú ní ọkàn rẹ̀ fún ara rẹ̀, ó sì ti yàn án láti ṣe olórí fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, nítorí pé ìwọ kò pa òfin Olúwa mọ́.”
15 And Samuel arose, and went up from Gilgal unto Gib'ah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were to be found with him, about six hundred men.
Nígbà náà ni Samuẹli kúrò ní Gilgali, ó sì gòkè lọ sí Gibeah ti Benjamini, Saulu sì ka àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀ta.
16 And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were to be found with them, were lying in Geba' of Benjamin; but the Philistines were encamped in Michmash.
Saulu àti ọmọ rẹ̀ Jonatani àti àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wọn dúró ní Gibeah ti Benjamini, nígbà tí àwọn Filistini dó ní Mikmasi.
17 And the troop of freebooters went out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned into the way to 'Ophrah, unto the land of Shu'al;
Ẹgbẹ́ àwọn onísùmọ̀mí mẹ́ta jáde lọ ní àgọ́ àwọn Filistini ní ọnà ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀. Ẹgbẹ́ kan gba ọ̀nà ti Ofira ní agbègbè ìlú Ṣuali,
18 And another company turned into the way to Beth-choron; and the other company turned into the way to the frontier that looketh over the valley of Zebo'im toward the wilderness.
òmíràn gba ọ̀nà Beti-Horoni, ẹ̀kẹta sí ìhà ibodè tí ó kọjú sí àfonífojì Seboimu tí ó kọjú sí ijù.
19 Now there was no smith to be found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines said, So that the Hebrews shall not make themselves swords or spears.
A kò sì rí alágbẹ̀dẹ kan ní gbogbo ilẹ̀ Israẹli, nítorí tí àwọn Filistini wí pé, “Bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ àwọn Heberu yóò rọ idà tàbí ọ̀kọ̀!”
20 But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plough-share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo Israẹli tọ àwọn Filistini lọ láti pọ́n dòjé wọn, ọ̀kọ̀, àáké àti ọ̀ṣọ́ wọn.
21 And they used a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the three-pronged forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.
Iye tí wọ́n fi pọ́n dòjé àti ọ̀kọ̀ jẹ́ ọwọ́ méjì nínú ìdámẹ́ta ṣékélì, àti ìdámẹ́ta ṣékélì fún pípọ́n òòyà-irin tí ilẹ̀, àáké àti irin ọ̀pá olùṣọ́ màlúù.
22 So it came to pass on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but they were found with Saul and with Jonathan his son.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọjọ́ ìjà ẹnìkankan nínú àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí ó wà pẹ̀lú Saulu àti Jonatani kò sì ní idà, tàbí ọ̀kọ̀ ní ọwọ́; àfi Saulu àti ọmọ rẹ̀ Jonatani ni wọ́n ni wọ́n.
23 And the outpost of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
Àwọn ẹgbẹ́ ogun Filistini sì ti jáde lọ sí ìkọjá Mikmasi.
