1 Samuel 7
1 The men of Kiriath Jearim came and took up the ark of Jehovah and brought it into the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of Jehovah.
Nimb’eo o nte-Kiriate-Iearimeo nangalake i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày vaho nasese’ iareo mb’ añ’ anjomba’ i Abinadabe mb’ an-kaboam-b’eo. Nafanto’ iareo amy Eleatsare ty fitoloñañe miavake hañambena’e i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày.
2 It happened, from the day that the ark stayed in Kiriath Jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after Jehovah.
Taoñe maro ty nimodo te nitoboke e Kiriate-Iearime ao i vatam-pañinay, toe roapolo taoñe; le nitoreo am’ Iehovà ty valobohò’ Israele.
3 Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, "If you do return to Jehovah with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts to Jehovah, and serve him only; and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines."
Hoe t’i Samoele amy valobohò’ Israeley, Naho toe himpoly amy Iehovà an-kaampon’ arofo nahareo, le apitsoho añe o ‘ndrahare hafao, naho o Astarote añivo’ areoo, le hentseño ho am’ Iehovà o arofo’ areoo vaho ie avao ty toroñeñe, vaho ho haha’e am-pità’ o nte-Pilistio.
4 Then the children of Israel removed the Baals and the Ashtaroth, and served Jehovah only.
Aa le naria’ o ana’ Israeleo o hazomanga’ i Baaleo, naho o Astaroteo, vaho nitoroñe Iehovà avao.
5 Samuel said, "Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray for you to Jehovah."
Le hoe t’i Samoele, Atontono mb’e Mitspè t’Israele iaby, vaho hihalaliako amy Iehovà.
6 They gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before Jehovah, and fasted on that day, and said, "We have sinned against Jehovah." Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.
Aa le nifanontoñe e Mitspè iereo naho nitari-drano, naho nadoa’e añatrefa’Iehovà, le nililitse amy andro zay, vaho nanao ty hoe: Toe aman-kakeo amy Iehovà zahay. Aa le nizaka o ana’ Israeleo e Mitspè ao t’i Samoele.
7 When the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. When the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
Ie jinanji’ o nte-Pilistio te nivory e Mitspè ao o ana’ Israeleo, le nionjo haname Israele o talèm-Pilistio. Jinanji’ o ana’ Israeleo le nirevendreveñe amo nte-Pilistio.
8 The children of Israel said to Samuel, "Do not cease to cry to Jehovah your God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines."
Le hoe o ana’ Israeleo amy Samoele: Ko mitofa amy fikoiha’o Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tikañey ho anay, te ho rombahe’e am-pità’ o nte-Pilistio.
9 Samuel took a suckling lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt offering to Jehovah: and Samuel cried to Jehovah for Israel; and Jehovah answered him.
Aa le nangalak’ anak’ añondry t’i Samoele naho nengae’e ho soron-koroañe am’ Iehovà, le nikanjy Iehovà ty am’ Israele t’i Samoele, vaho nanoiñe aze t’Iehovà.
10 As Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but Jehovah thundered with a great thunder on that day on the Philistines, and confused them; and they were struck down before Israel.
Aa naho nisoroña’ i Samoele i engan-koroañey, naho ie niheo mb’eo o nte-Pilistio hifañotakotak’ am’ Israele, vaho nampiparapapiaha’ Iehovà àmpiñe jabajaba amo nte-Pilistio, nampibaibay iareo henane zay, zinevoñ’ aolo’ Israele.
11 The men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and struck them, as far as below Beth Kar.
Niakatse i Mitspè o ana’ Israeleo nañoridañe o nte-Pilistio vaho linafa’ iereo mb’ am-para’ i Bete-kare añe.
12 Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Jashan, and called its name Ebenezer, saying, "Jehovah helped us until now."
Nandrambe vato amy zao t’i Samoele le natroa’e añivo’ i Mitspè naho i Sene eo vaho natao’e Ebene ha’izere, ami’ty hoe: Efets’eo ty nañolora’ Iehovà antika.
13 So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the territory of Israel. The hand of Jehovah was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
Aa le nianjiñe o nte-Pilistio, naho tsy nomb’ an-tane’ Israele mb’eo ka; vaho niatreatre o nte-Pilistio amo hene andro’ i Samoeleo ty fità’ Iehovà;
14 The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and Israel recovered its territory out of the hand of the Philistines. There was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
Nampoly amy Israele o rova iaby tinava’ o nte-Pilistio am’Israeleo; boak’ Ekrone pake Gate; le navotso’ Israele am-pità’ o nte-Pilistio o tane’eo. Niharo rehak’ am’ Israele ka o nte-Amoreo.
15 Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
Nizakae’ i Samoele amo hene andro’eo t’Israele.
16 He went from year to year in circuit to Bethel and Gilgal, and Mizpah; and he judged Israel in all those places.
Nitolom-piary mb’e Betele naho mb’e Gilgale vaho mb’e Mitspè mb’eo re boa-taom-boa-taoñe; le hene nizakae’e amy toetse rey t’Israele.
17 His return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel: and he built there an altar to Jehovah.
I Ramà ty fiolia’e, amy te tao i anjomba’ey; nizaka Israele ao re vaho naore’e eo ty kitreli’ Iehovà.
