1 Samuel 11
1 After about a month, Nahash the Ammonite came up and camped against Jabesh Gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you."
Sahp malem se tukun ma inge, Nahash, tokosra lun mwet Ammon, el us mwet mweun lal ac som kuhlusya acn Jabesh su oan in facl Gilead. Na mwet in acn Jabesh elos fahk nu sel Tokosra Nahash, “Orala sie oakwuk ku inmasrlosr, na kut fah orekma nu sum.”
2 And Nahash the Ammonite said to them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that all your right eyes are put out; and I will make it a disgrace on all Israel."
Tokosra Nahash el fahk, “Nga ac oru oakwuk se inmasrlosr, tuh meet liki, nga ac tipalla atronmotowos layen layot tuh in mwe akmwekin nu sin mwet Israel nukewa.”
3 The elders of Jabesh said to him, "Give us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the borders of Israel; and then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you."
Mwet kol lun mwet Jabesh elos fahk, “Soano len itkosr tuh kut in supwalik kas nu fin acn Israel nufon. Fin wanginna mwet ku in kasrekut, na kut ac fah filikutwot nu inpoum.”
4 Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul, and spoke these words in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
Na ke mwet utuk kas elos tuku nu Gibeah, acn ma Saul el muta we, ac fahkak ma inge, mwet uh mutawauk tung ac asor.
5 Look, Saul came following the oxen out of the field; and Saul said, "What ails the people that they weep?" They told him the words of the men of Jabesh.
Ke pacl se inge Saul el tufahna folok inimae me, wi cow natul, ac el siyuk sin mwet uh, “Mea se? Efu ku mwet uh tung?” Na elos fahk nu sel ma mwet Jabesh elos fahk ah.
6 The Spirit of God came mightily on Saul when he heard those words, and his anger was kindled greatly.
Ke Saul el lohng ma inge, ngunin God tuku ke ku nu facl ac el arulana foloyak.
7 He took a yoke of oxen, and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the borders of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, "Whoever doesn't come forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen." The dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.
Saul el eis lukwa cow uh ac sipsipikya nu ke ip srisrik pukanten, ac sang mwet utuk kas in usalik nu in facl Israel nufon. Ac elos akkalemye nu sin mwet nukewa, fahk ouinge, “Kutena mwet fin tia welul Saul ac Samuel nu ke mweun uh, ac fah orek ouinge nu ke cow natul uh!” Mwet Israel elos sensen ke ma LEUM GOD El ac oru uh, pwanang elos nukewa fahsreni ke inse sefanna.
8 He numbered them in Bezek; and the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
Pisen mwet su toeni nu yorol Saul in acn Bezek, oasr tolfoko tausin mwet Israel ac tolngoul tausin mwet Judah.
9 And he said to the messengers who came, "Thus you shall tell the men of Jabesh, 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have deliverance.'" The messengers came and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
Ac elos fahk nu sin mwet utuk kas Jabesh me, “Kowos som ac fahk nu sin mwet lowos an lah meet liki infulwen len lutu, elos ac fah moliyukla.” Ke mwet Jabesh elos lohng kas inge, elos engan ma lulap,
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you shall do with us all that seems good to you."
ac elos fahk nu sel Tokosra Nahash, “Lutu kut ac fah srasrapo nu sum, ac kom ku in oru kutena ma kom lungse oru nu sesr.”
11 It was so on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and struck the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it happened, that those who remained were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
Ke fong sac, Saul el kitalik mwet mweun lal nu ke u tolu. Toang in len tok ah, elos utyak nu nien aktuktuk lun mwet Ammon uh ac mweunelos nwe ke sun infulwen len, ac elos onelosla. Mwet su painmoulla sin mwet Ammon elos kaingelik, kais sie ke inkanek lal sifacna.
12 And the people said to Samuel, "Who is it that said Saul should not reign over us? Bring those men so we may put them to death."
Na mwet Israel elos fahk nu sel Samuel, “Ku pia mwet ma fahk mu Saul el tia fal in tokosra facsr uh? Usalosme ac kut fah onelosla!”
13 Saul said, "There shall not a man be put to death this day; for today the LORD has worked deliverance in Israel."
A Saul el fahk, “Wangin mwet ac fah anwuki misenge, tuh pa inge len se LEUM GOD El molela mwet Israel.”
14 Then Samuel said to the people, "Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there."
Na Samuel el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Lela kut nukewa in som nu Gilgal, ac sifilpa fahkak lah Saul el tokosra lasr.”
15 All the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal; and there they offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
Ke ma inge elos nukewa som nu Gilgal, ac fahkak in acn mutal we lah Saul el tokosra lalos. Elos oru mwe kisa in akinsewowo, ac Saul ac mwet nukewa elos arulana engan ac akfulatye len sac.
