< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 About a month later, King Nahash of Ammon [led his army across the Jordan River, and they] surrounded Jabesh [city] in [the] Gilead [region]. But all the men of Jabesh [went and] said to Nahash, “Make an agreement/treaty with us [not to kill us], and then we will let you rule us.”
Hagi mago'agna evutegeno, Amoni kini ne' Nahasi'a sondia vahe'a zamavarege'za, Israeli vahepi me'nea kuma Jabes-Kiriati ome avazagi kagizageno, ana kumapima mani'naza Jabesi-Kiriati vahe'mo'za Nahasina asami'za, kagrane huhagerafi huvempage hanunkenka kegava hurante'nanketa kagri eri'za vahe manigahune.
2 Nahash replied, “I will do that if you do one thing. Allow us to gouge out all the right eyes of your people. By doing that we will cause the people [in other countries] to despise all you Israeli people.”
Hagi Nahasi'a kenonazmirera anage hu'ne, tamagranema huhagerafi kema hanuana, nagra maka vahe'mota tamaga kaziga tamavurga tagati atregahue. Ana hanugeno Israeli vahe'mo'za zamagazegu hugahaze.
3 The leaders of Jabesh replied, “Do not attack us for the next seven days. During that time, we will send messengers throughout Israel [to tell them what you are demanding]. If no one will help us, then we will (surrender to you/allow you to do to us whatever you want).”
Hagi Jabesi kumate ranra vahe'mo'za ananke nona'a Nahasina amanage hu'za asami'naze, 7ni'a zagegna tavega ante'nenketa, Israeli vahe'mo'zama eme taza hu'za tagumavazi'nagura kato vahera huzmantamnena kea eri'za vu'za Israeli vahera ome zamasamiho. Hagi zamagrama eme taza osanazana, nazano tamagrama hurantenaku'ma hazazana tamagrite maka'mota esunketa hurantegahaze.
4 [Being very confident that his army was very superior, Nahash agreed. So the leaders of Jabesh sent messengers throughout Israel]. When the messengers came to Gibeah, which was [the city] where Saul lived, and they told the people there about the situation, everyone started to cry.
Hagi Nahasi'ma ana kere'ma hu izo'ma hige'za, Jabesi vahe'mo'za mago'a vahe huzamantage'za Soli kumatega Gibea kea eri'za vu'naze. Hagi ana ke'ma ome nezamasamige'za, miko vahe'mo'za nentahi'za ranke hu'za zavira ate'naze.
5 At that time, Saul was plowing in the field. When he returned home, he asked, “Why are all the people [crying]?” So they told him what the messengers from Jabesh had reported.
Hagi anama hu'za zavi krafama nehazageno'a, Soli'a hozaregati eri'zama e'neria bulimakaoma'ane ne-eno eme nezamageno anage hu'ne, naza fore hu'negeta miko vahe'mota zavira netaze, huno zamantahigege'za? Jabesi vahe'mo'za hu'naza kea agrira asami'naze.
6 Then God’s Spirit came powerfully upon Saul, and he became very angry [because of what Nahash wanted to do].
Hagi Soli'ma anankema nentahigeno'a Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a agritera hanavetino egeno, Solina tusi arimpa ahe'ne.
7 He took two of his oxen [and killed them] and cut them into pieces. Then he sent messengers [carrying those pieces] throughout Israel to tell people this message: “Saul says that [he cut this ox in pieces, and that he] will do the same thing to the oxen of anyone who refuses to come with him and Samuel to fight [the army from Ammon]!” Then Yahweh caused all the people of Israel to be afraid of what Saul might do to them (OR, of what Yahweh might do to them) [if they did not go and help Saul]. So the men all gathered together.
Hagi Soli'a tare bulimakao'a aheno tagarago huno eri nezamino, ama ame'a erita nevuta, mika Israeli vahera amanage huta nanekea ome zamasamiho. Iza'o Soline Samuelinema amage'ma ontesimofona, ama bulimakaonte'ma fore'ma hianknaza fore humigahie. Hige'za ana nanekema nentahizageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a zamazeri zamagogofege'za miko vahe'mo'za eri mago hu'za eme atru hu'naze.
8 When Saul gave them all weapons at Bezek, he saw that there were 300,000 Israeli men there, as well as 30,000 men from the tribe of Judah.
Hagi ana vahe'mo'za Bezeke kumate'ma azageno Soli'ma zamazeri ante fatgoma huno'ma hampri'neana, Israeli sondia vahera 300 tauseni'a sondia vahe manizageno, Juda sondia vahera 30 tauseni'a sondia vahe mani'naze.
9 So Saul sent messengers back to the people at Jabesh to tell them, “We will rescue/save you by noontime tomorrow.” When the people of Jabesh heard that message, they were very joyful/happy.
Hagi anama hute'za kema eri'za e'naza vahera amanage hu'za huzmante'naze, oki'na zagema hanatino mareri'nenigeno tamaza hu'zana fore hugahie huta Jabes vahera ome zamasamiho. Hagi ana nanekema eme zamasamizage'za Jabesi vahe'mo'za tusi muse hu'naze.
10 Then the men of Jabesh told [Nahash], “Tomorrow we will surrender to you, and then you can do to us whatever you want to.”
Anante Jabesi vahe'mo'za Nahasina asami'za, okina tagra atiramisunketa nazano hurantenaku'ma hanaza zana hurantegahaze.
11 But before the sun rose the next morning, Saul [and his army arrived. He] divided them into three groups. They rushed into the camp of the soldiers from Ammon, and attacked them. By noontime they had killed most of them, and those who were not killed scattered. Each of them who ran away ran away alone.
Hagi kora otu'negeno nanterame Soli'a sondia vahera 3'a kevu refako hige'za, Amori vahe kumapi ufre'za ha' huzmante'za bainati kazinknonteti zamahe'za rukafri makafri nehazageno vuno feruse'ne. Ana hazage'za osi'ama maniza Amori vahe'mo'za panani hu'za ufre efre hu'naze.
12 Then the people [of Jabesh] said to Samuel, “Where are those men who said that they did not want Saul to be our king? Bring them here, and we will kill them!”
Hagi ana hute'za Samuelina antahige'za, ina vahe'mo'za hu'za Soli'a kva huorantegahie hu'za hu'naze? Zamavreta amare enketa zamahe frimneno.
13 But Saul replied, “[No], we are not going to execute anyone today, because this is the day that Yahweh has saved us Israeli people. [It is a day to rejoice, not to kill anyone].”
Hianagi Soli'a kenona huno, magore huta Israeli vahera zamahe ofrigahune. Na'ankure menina Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahera zamahokeno zamavare'ne.
14 Then Samuel said to the people, “Let’s all go to Gilgal, and there we will again proclaim [that Saul is] our king.”
Hagi Samueli'a huno, enketa Gilgali vuta ete mago'ane hu'ama huta Soli'a kini mani'ne huta eri hanavetita vahera zamasamisune.
15 So they went to Gilgal. There, knowing that Yahweh was watching, they proclaimed that Saul was their king. Then they offered sacrifices to enable them to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. And Saul and all the other Israeli people were very happy.
Hige'za miko vahe'mo'za Gilgali vu'za Ra Anumzamofo avuga Soli'a kini mani'ne hu'za mago'ene azeri hanaveti kea hu'naze. Hagi anantega arimpa fru ofa nehu'za, Soli'ene mika Israeli vahe'mo'za tusi musenkase hu'naze.
