1 Samuel 31
1 Now, as, the Philistines, were fighting against Israel, the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain, in Mount Gilboa.
Mwet Philistia elos mweun lain mwet Israel fin Fineol Gilboa. Mwet Israel pukanten elos misa in acn sac, ac mwet lula sin mwet Israel, welulang Tokosra Saul ac wen natul, elos kaingla.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons, —and the Philistines smote Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchishua, sons of Saul.
Tusruktu mwet Philistia elos ukwalos, ac uniya wen tolu inge natul Saul: Jonathan, Abinadab, ac Malchishua.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers discovered him, —and he was terrified at the archers.
Mweun sac arulana upa nu facl Saul, ac el pisrkiyuki ke pisr nutin mwet lokoalok lal, ac arulana yohk kinet kacl.
4 Then said Saul to his armour-bearer—Draw thy sword and pierce me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come, and pierce me through, and abuse me. But his armour-bearer was not willing, for he was sore afraid. So Saul took his sword and fell thereon.
Saul el fahk nu sin mwet fusr se su us mwe mweun natul ah, “Faisak cutlass nutum an ac uniyuwi, tuh mwet Philistia pegan ingan in tia konkin lah elos uniyuwi.” Tuh mwet fusr sac arulana sangeng ac kofla orala. Ke ma inge Saul el srukak cutlass natul sifacna, ac putatyang nu fac.
5 And, when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also, fell upon his sword, and died with him.
Ke mwet fusr sac liye lah Saul el misa, na el oayapa putatyang nu fin cutlass natul ah, ac welul Saul misa.
6 Thus died Saul, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, yea all his men, on that day, together.
Na pa ingan luman misa lal Saul ac wen tolu natul, ac mwet fusr sac. Mwet nukewa su welul Saul elos misa ke len sac.
7 And, when the men of Israel who were across the vale, and who were across the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled, and the Philistines entered, and took up their abode therein.
Ke mwet Israel su muta lefahlo Infahlfal Jezreel, ac elos su muta lefahlyat Infacl Jordan, elos lohng lah un mwet mweun lun mwet Israel elos kaing, ac Saul ac wen natul elos misa, elos fahsr liki siti selos ac kaingla. Na mwet Philistia elos tuku ac muta we.
8 And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul, and his three sons, lying prostrate in Mount Gilboa.
In len se tukun mweun upa sac, mwet Philistia elos som in suk ma wap ke mwet misa, na elos konauk manol Saul ac wen tolu natul oan Fineol Gilboa.
9 So they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, —and sent throughout the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and unto the people.
Elos pakela sifal Saul, ac sarukla mwe loeyuk lal, ac supwalik ma inge yurin mwet utuk kas nu in facl Philistia nufon, in fahkak pweng wo se inge nu sin ma sruloala lalos ac nu sin mwet lalos.
10 And they put his armour in a house of Ashtoreths, —and, his dead body, fastened they on the wall of Beth-shan.
Elos filiya mwe mweun natul Saul in tempul lun god mutan se pangpang Astarte, ac elos patikya manol Saul nu ke pot uh in siti Beth Shan.
11 And, when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him, what the Philistines had done unto Saul,
Ke mwet Jabesh in Gilead elos lohng ma mwet Philistia oru nu sel Saul,
12 then arose all the men of valour, and journeyed all the night, and took the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, from the wall of Beth-shan, —and came to Jabesh, and burned them there;
na mwet pulaik inmasrlolos elos fahla fong nufon se nwe ke elos sun Beth Shan. Elos eisya manol Saul ac wen natul liki pot uh, ac usla nu Jabesh ac esukak we.
13 and took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk-tree in Jabesh, —and fasted seven days.
Na elos orani sri uh, ac pikinya ye sak tamarisk soko in siti uh, ac elos lalo ke len itkosr.
