1 Samuel 13
1 Saul was ruling for less than a year, when he ruled during year two over Israel,
Nifehe rai-taoñe t’i Saole, aa ie nifehe Israele roe taoñe,
2 that Saul chose for himself three thousand men of Israel, of which two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, and one thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. And the rest of the people he sent away, each to his own home.
le jinobo’ i Saole ty lahilahy telo arivo boake Israele ao. Nindre amy Saole e Mikmase naho ambohibohi’ i Betele ty ro’arivo, naho nindre am’ Ionatane e Gibeate-Beniamine ty arivo; songa nirahe’e mb’ an-kiboho’e añe ze ondaty sisa.
3 Now Jonathan struck the garrison of the Philistines that was at Gibeah, and the Philistines heard of it. Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear."
Pinao’ Ionatane amy zao ty mpirai-lian-dahin-defoñe e Geba; le jinanji’ o nte Pilistio. Aa le pinopò’ i Saole amy tane iabiy i antsivay nanao ty hoe: mijanjiña ry nte-Evre.
4 All Israel heard that Saul had struck the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become repulsive to the Philistines. So the people were called out to join Saul at Gilgal.
Aa le jinanji’ Israele iaby te zinevo’ i Saole i mpirai-lian-te-Pilistiy, naho te mitrotròtse amo nte-Pilistio t’Israele. Aa le nifanontoñe amy Saole e Gilgale añe ondatio.
5 The Philistines assembled themselves together to fight with Israel, and brought up against Israel three thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude: and they came up, and camped in Michmash, eastward of Beth Aven.
Nifamory ka o nte-Pilistio hialy amy Israele, sarete telo-ale naho mpiningi-tsoavala eneñ’ arivo naho ondaty mira amo faseñe añ’ olon-driakeo ty hamaro’e ro nionjom-beo nitobe e Mikmase atiñana’ i Bete-Avene ey.
6 When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble (for the people were in a difficult situation), then the people hid themselves in caves and thickets, among the rocks, and in pits and cisterns.
Nioni’ o ana’ Israeleo te niampoheke—toe nalovilovy ondatio—sata’ ondatio ty nietak’ an-dakato, an-drongoñe, am-bato, an-kadaha, vaho an-koboñe ao.
7 Now some of the Hebrews had gone over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but as for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
Nitsake Iordaney ka ty ila’ o nte Evreo mb’an-tane Gade e Gilgale añe; fe mbe te Gilgale t’i Saole, vaho nititititike iaby o mpiama’eo.
8 And he stayed seven days, according to the time that Samuel had said. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and the people began to abandon him.
Nihenekenek’ ao fito andro re ty amy namantaña’ i Samoeley; fe tsy niavy e Gilgale t’i Samoele; le nihabaratsiak’ ama’e ondatio.
9 Saul said, "Bring here the burnt offering to me, and the peace offerings." He offered the burnt offering.
Aa hoe t’i Saole: Endeso mb’amako mb’etoa i enga hisoroñañey naho o engam-panintsiñañeo; vaho nisoroña’e o engan-koroañeo.
10 It came to pass that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, look, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.
Aa ie vaho nihenefe’e soroñe i engan-koroañe rey, hehe te pok’eo t’i Samoele; naho nimb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Saole hifanalaka ama’e hañontane aze.
11 Samuel said, "What have you done?" Saul said, "Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines assembled themselves together at Michmash;
Le hoe t’i Samoele: Ino o nanoe’oo? le hoe t’i Saole: Ie nitreako te niparaitak’ amako ondatio naho tsy niheo mb’eo irehe amy nifotoañañey, naho te mifanontoñe haname i Mikmase o nte-Pilistio,
12 therefore I said, 'Now the Philistines will come down on me to Gilgal, and I haven't entreated the favor of the LORD.' I forced myself therefore, and offered the burnt offering."
le nataoko ty hoe: Hiambotrak’ amako e Gilgale amy zao o nte-Pilistio vaho mb’e tsy nihalaliako ìsoke am’Iehovà; aa le nanji-batan-draho nañenga i soroñey.
13 Samuel said to Saul, "You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you; for now the LORD would have established your kingdom on Israel forever.
Aa hoe t’i Samoele amy Saole: Nanao hadagolàñe; tsy nambena’o ty lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, i nandilia’e azoy; ie ho najado’ Iehovà ho nainai’e donia i fifehea’o Israeley.
14 But now your kingdom shall not continue. The LORD has sought for himself a man after his own heart, and the LORD has appointed him to be prince over his people, because you have not kept that which the LORD commanded you."
Fe tsy hijadoñe i fifehea’oy; fa nitsoeke ondaty mindre arofo ama’e t’Iehovà vaho fa tinendre’ Iehovà ho mpifehe ondati’eo, amy te tsy nambena’o i nandilia’ Iehovà azoy.
15 And Samuel arose and departed from Gilgal, and the rest of the people went up after Saul to meet him after the men of war, when they had come up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
Niongak’ amy zao t’i Samoele, nionjo boake Gilgale mb’e Gibeate-Beniamine. Niahe’ i Saole ondaty ama’eo te ni-enen-jato varañe.
16 Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin: but the Philistines camped in Michmash.
le nañialo e Gibeate-Beniamine t’i Saole naho Ionatane ana’ey naho ondaty ama’eo; vaho nitobe e Mikmase ka o nte-Pilistio.
17 The spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual;
Niakatse an-tobe’ o nte-Pilistio amy zao ty mpijoy am-pirimboña’e telo: ty mpirai-lia’e raike nitsile mb’amy lala-migodañe mb’e Ofrà, mb’an-tane’ i Soale mb’eo;
18 and another company turned the way to Beth Horon; and another company turned toward the border that overlooks the valley of Zeboim.
nitolike mb’ amy Bete-korone ka ty mpirai-lia’e raike; vaho nitolike mb’añ’ efe-tane ahatalakesañe ty vava-tane Zeboime mb’ am-patram-bey mb’eo ty mpirai-lia’e raike.
19 Now there was no blacksmith found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines had said, "Otherwise the Hebrews will make swords or spears."
Ie amy zao, tsy amam-panefe ndra raike ty an-tane Israele ao; ami’ty nanoe’ o nte-Pilistio ty hoe: Hera hanefe fibara ndra lefoñe o nte-Evreo,
20 But all Israel would go down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, mattock, axe, and sickle;
fa nizotso mb’amo nte-Pilisty iabio ze hene ana’ Israele hanioñe ty lelan-dasarý naho ty fangaly, naho ty fekoñe, vaho ty fibìra.
21 and the charge was one payim for the plowshares and for the mattocks, and three shekels for picks and axes and to set the goads.
Nitake roe-ampaha-telo’ ty sekele hanañira’e ty lelan-dasarý ndra ty fitrabahan-tane; naho ty ampaha-telo’e ho a o fekoñeo; vaho ho ami’ty fanañiran-kitro.
22 So on the day of the battle of Michmash there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan; but Saul and his son Jonathan had them.
Aa ie amy andron-kotakotakey, leo fibara ndra lefoñe raike tsy nizoeñe am-pità’ o mpiamy Saole naho Ionataneo; naho tsy i nizoeñe amy Saole naho Ionataney avao.
23 The garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
Aa le nionjomb’ an-kebam-bohi’ i Mikmase mb’eo ty raik’ amo mpirai-lia’ o nte-Pilistioo.
