1 Samuel 5

1 And the Philistines have taken the Ark of God, and bring it in from Eben-Ezer to Ashdod,

Tukun mwet Philistia sruokya Tuptup in Wuleang elos usla liki acn Ebenezer nu Ashdod, siti selos sifacna.

2 and the Philistines take the Ark of God and bring it into the house of Dagon, and set it near Dagon.

Elos usak nu in tempul lun god Dagon, ac filiya sisken ma sruloala se kacl sifacna.

3 And the Ashdodites rise early on the next day, and behold, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the Ark of YHWH; and they take Dagon, and put it back in its place.

Ke mwet Ashdod elos toang tukakek in lutu tok ah, elos liye tuh ma sruloala kacl Dagon putatla oankiyuki ye mutun Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD. Na elos srukak ma sruloala sac ac sifilpa folokonak nu yen se oan we ah.

4 And they rise early in the morning on the next day, and behold, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the Ark of YHWH, and the head of Dagon, and the two palms of its hands are cut off at the threshold, only Dagon’s [body] has been left of him;

Toang in lutu tok ah, elos sifilpa liye tuh ma sruloala sac putatla ac oankiyuki ye mutun Tuptup in Wuleang. Pacl se inge sifa ac poun ma sruloala sac kipatla ac putatla oan ke mutunoa. Manol mukena oan sisken Tuptup in Wuleang.

5 therefore the priests of Dagon, and all those coming into the house of Dagon, do not tread on the threshold of Dagon, in Ashdod, until this day.

(Ke sripa se inge, mwet tol lal Dagon, ku kutena mwet su utyak in alu nu sel in acn Ashdod, elos ac tupalot acn sac ac tia longya ye srungul uh. Ma inge orek na nwe misenge.)

6 And the hand of YHWH is heavy on the Ashdodites, and He makes them desolate, and strikes them with lumps, Ashdod and its borders.

LEUM GOD El akkeokye mwet Ashdod arulana upa ac aksangengyalos. El sang kai nu selos ac oayapa mwet su muta raunelosla. El oru tuh in oasr mahlap in manolos.

7 And the men of Ashdod see that [it is] so, and have said, “The Ark of the God of Israel does not abide with us, for His hand has been hard on us, and on our god Dagon.”

Ac ke mwet Ashdod elos liye ma sikyak inge, elos fahk, “God lun Israel El akkeokye kut ac god lasr Dagon. Kut tia ku in lela Tuptup in Wuleang in oan paht yorosr.”

8 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines to them, and say, “What do we do to the Ark of the God of Israel?” And they say, “Let the Ark of the God of Israel be brought around to Gath”; and they bring around the Ark of the God of Israel;

Ouinge elos supwalik mwet in pangoneni tokosra limekosr lun mwet Philistia ac siyuk selos, “Mea kut ac oru ke Tuptup in Wuleang lun God lun Israel?” Ac elos topuk ac fahk, “Usla nu Gath.” Na elos usla nu Gath, sie pac siti lun mwet Philistia.

9 and it comes to pass after they have brought it around, that the hand of YHWH is against the city—a very great destruction; and He strikes the men of the city, from small and to great; and lumps break forth on them.

Ac tukun elos usla Tuptup sac nu Gath, LEUM GOD El kai pac siti sac ac oru tuh mwet we in arulana fohsak. El akkeokyalos ke mahlap in manolos — sikyak nu sin mwet nukewa in siti sac, mwet matu oayapa mwet fusr.

10 And they send the Ark of God to Ekron, and it comes to pass, at the coming in of the Ark of God to Ekron, that the Ekronites cry out, saying, “They have brought around the Ark of the God of Israel to us, to put us and our people to death.”

Ke ma inge elos supwala Tuptup in Wuleang nu Ekron, sie pac siti lun mwet Philistia. Na ke pacl se sun acn se inge, mwet we elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Elos use Tuptup in Wuleang lun God lun Israel in tuh unikutla!”

11 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines, and say, “Send the Ark of the God of Israel away, and it turns back to its place, and it does not put us and our people to death”; for there has been a deadly destruction throughout all the city, the hand of God has been very heavy there,

Na mwet inge sifilpa supwala mwet in pangonma tokosra limekosr lun mwet Philistia ac fahk, “Folokunla Tuptup in Wuleang lun God lun Israel nu in acn se sifacna, tuh in tia unikutla ac sou lasr.” Mwet nukewa in siti sac arulana fohsak mweyen upana kaiyuk lun God nu selos.

12 and the men who have not died have been struck with lumps, and the cry of the city goes up into the heavens.

Finne elos su tiana misa, oasr mahlap sikyak in manolos ac elos pang nu sin god lalos ac kwafe tuh elos in kasrelos.
