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.
Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ará Filistini dojú ìjà kọ Israẹli, àwọn ará Israẹli sì sálọ kúrò níwájú wọn, a sì pa ọ̀pọ̀ wọn sí orí òkè Gilboa.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons, —and the Philistines smote Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchishua, sons of Saul.
Àwọn Filistini sì ń lépa Saulu àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ kíkan; àwọn Filistini sì pa Jonatani àti Abinadabu, àti Malikiṣua, àwọn ọmọ Saulu.
3 And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers discovered him, —and he was terrified at the archers.
Ìjà náà sì burú fún Saulu gidigidi, àwọn tafàtafà si ta á ní ọfà, o sì fi ara pa púpọ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn tafàtafà.
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.
Saulu sì wí fún ẹni tí ó ru ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀ pé, “Fa idà rẹ yọ, kí ìwọ sì fi gún mi, kí àwọn aláìkọlà wọ̀nyí má ba à wá gún mi, àti kí wọn kí ó má bá à fi mí ṣe ẹlẹ́yà.” Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó rú ẹ̀rù ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀ kò fẹ́ ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, nítorí pé ẹ̀rù bà á gidigidi. Nígbà náà ni Saulu mú idà, ó sì ṣubú lù ú.
5 And, when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also, fell upon his sword, and died with him.
Nígbà tí ẹni tí ó ru ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀ si rí i pé Saulu kú, òun náà sì fi idà rẹ̀ pa ara rẹ̀, ó sì kú pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
6 Thus died Saul, and his three sons, and his armour-bearer, yea all his men, on that day, together.
Saulu sì kú, àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ mẹ́ta, àti ẹni tí ó ru ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ kan náà.
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.
Nígbà ti àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli tí ó wà lápá kejì àfonífojì náà, àti àwọn ẹni tí ó wà lápá kejì Jordani, rí pé àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli sá, àti pé Saulu àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ ti kú, wọ́n sì fi ìlú sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì sá, àwọn Filistini sì wá, wọ́n sì jókòó si ìlú wọn.
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.
Ní ọjọ́ kejì, nígbà tí àwọn Filistini dé láti bọ́ nǹkan tí ń bẹ lára àwọn tí ó kù, wọ́n sì rí pé, Saulu àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ mẹ́ta ṣubú ni òkè 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.
Wọ́n sì gé orí rẹ̀, wọ́n sì bọ ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ránṣẹ́ lọ ilẹ̀ Filistini káàkiri, láti máa sọ ọ́ ní gbangba ni ilé òrìṣà wọn, àti láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
10 And they put his armour in a house of Ashtoreths, —and, his dead body, fastened they on the wall of Beth-shan.
Wọ́n sì fi ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀ sí ilé Aṣtoreti: wọ́n sì kan òkú rẹ̀ mọ́ odi Beti-Ṣani.
11 And, when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him, what the Philistines had done unto Saul,
Nígbà tí àwọn ará Jabesi Gileadi sì gbọ́ èyí tí àwọn Filistini ṣe sí Saulu.
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;
Gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin alágbára sì dìde, wọ́n sì fi gbogbo òru náà rìn, wọ́n sì gbé òkú Saulu, àti òkú àwọn ọmọ bíbí rẹ̀ kúrò lára odi Beti-Ṣani, wọ́n sì wá sí Jabesi, wọ́n sì sun wọ́n níbẹ̀.
13 and took their bones, and buried them under the tamarisk-tree in Jabesh, —and fasted seven days.
Wọ́n sì kó egungun wọn, wọ́n sì sin wọ́n lábẹ́ igi tamariski ní Jabesi, wọ́n sì gbààwẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ méje.
