< 1 Samuel 14 >

1 One day, Jonathan said to the young man who carried his weapons, “Come with me; we will go over to where the Philistia soldiers have put up their tents.” [So they went], but Jonathan did not tell his father [what they were going to do].
Hagi mago zupa Jonatani'a hanko'are'ma erinentea nehaza ne' nevreno anage hu'ne, Egeta Filistia sondia vahe'ma emani'naza kumapi va'maneno, huno higene vu'na'e. Hianagi Jonatani'a vania zamofona nefana osami'ne.
2 On that day, Saul and the 600 soldiers who were with him were sitting around a pomegranate tree at a place where the people threshed grain, near Gibeah.
Hagi ana zupa Soli'a sondia vahe'ane Migroni kuma'mofo fegi'a Gibea tava'onte pomegreneti zafa agafafi seli nonkuma ome ante'za mani'naze. Anampina 600'a sondia vahe naza mani'naze.
3 Ahijah the priest was also there. He was wearing the sacred vest. Ahijah was the son of Ahitub, who was a brother of Ichabod. Ichabod and Ahitub were the sons of Phinehas, who was the son of Eli, who had been Yahweh’s priest at Shiloh. No one knew that Jonathan had left [the Israeli camp].
Hagi anampina mago nera pristi kukena hu'nea ne' mani'ne. Ana ne' agi'a Ahiza mani'neankino, nefa'a Ahitupu'e. Hagi Ahitupu nefu'a Ikabotie. Hagi Ahiza'a Ahitubu kasentegeno, Ahitubuna Finiasi kasentegeno, Finiasina Eli kasente'ne. Higeno Eli'a za'za kukena hu'neno Ra Anumzamofo pristi eri'za e'nerino Sailo kumate mani'nea nere. Hagi mago vahe'mo'e huno Jonatanima kumama atreno hate'ma viazana keno antahinora osu'ne.
4 Jonathan planned that he and the young man would go through a narrow (pass/place between two cliffs) to get to where the Philistia army was. The cliff on one side of the pass was named Bozez, and the other cliff was named Seneh.
Hagi Filistia vahe'ma krerami'za vu'za e'zama nehaza mehinteti Jonatani'a kreramino Filistia vahe kumapi vunaku agesa antahi'ne. Hagi kantigamama me'na'a mehintremofo zanagi'a, Bozezine Senene.
5 One cliff faced north toward Micmash, and the cliff on the other side faced south toward Geba [town].
Hagi mago mehina noti kaziga Mikmasi marerigeno, magora Sauti kaziga Geba avuga mareri'ne.
6 Jonathan said to the young man who carried his weapons, “Come with me. We will go to where those (pagans/people who do not believe in Yahweh) [MTY] have set up their tents. Perhaps Yahweh will help us. It does not matter whether we are only two men or many people; nothing can hinder Yahweh from enabling us to defeat them.”
Hagi Jonatani'a hanko'ama erinteno nevia nehaza nera asamino, Egeta oku zamavufaga taga osu vahe mopafi va'maneno. Ra Anumzamo agra'a hara taza huno hugahie. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a rama'a vahekuro, osi'a vahekura agesa nontahianki, amne hara hugateregahie.
7 The young man who was carrying Jonathan’s weapons said, “Do what you think is the best thing for us to do. I will help you.”
Hagi hanko'ama e'neria nehaza ne'mo'a Janataninkura anage hu'ne, Nagra nazanoma hana zana, amane kamage ante'na hugahue.
8 Then Jonathan said, “Okay, come with me. We will cross the valley to where the Philistia army is, and allow them to see us.
Higeno Jonatani'a huno, Egeta rugreramita amate va'manena Filistia vahe'mo'za tageho.
9 If they then say to us, ‘You two stay there until we come down to you,’ we will stay there and not go up to them.
Hagi zamagrama tagriku'ma hu'za anante mani'neketa va'mnenoma hanageta'a, zamagritega marerita ovugahuanki, ama anante otita manigahu'e.
10 But if they say to us, ‘Come up here [and fight against] us,’ that will show us that Yahweh will enable us to defeat them. Then we will go up and fight them.”
Hianagi zamagrama hu'za emarerioma hanageta'a tagra marerigahu'e. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a e'i ana vahera tagri tazampi zamavarentegahue huno mago avame'za taveri hugahie.
11 When the two of them crossed the valley, the Philistia soldiers saw them coming. They said, “Look! The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes in which they have been hiding!”
Anage nehuke ana taregamoke Filistia vahe'mo'zama kumapinti'ma zanage'are amate ome oti'na'e. Anama hake'za Filistia vahe'mo'za neznage'za amanage hu'naze, Hibru vahe'ma kerifima fraki'naza vahe'mo'za atirami'za azanki, keho.
12 Then the Philistia soldiers who were closest to Jonathan and the young man who carried his weapons said, “Come up here, and we will teach you something [about how to fight] [IDM]!” Jonathan said to the young man who was with him, “Come behind me and climb up, because Yahweh is going to help us to defeat them!”
Hagi Filistia vahe'mo'za Jonatanine hanko'are'ma e'neria ne'enema nezanage'za kezanke hu'za, emareriketa mago'azana rempi huranamisune. Anage'ma hazageno'a Jonatani'a hanko'are'ma e'neria nehaza nera asamino, namefi navaririnka marerio. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahe zamazampi anamu vahera zamavarentegahie.
13 So Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and his feet [because it was very steep]. The young man climbed up following him. As Jonathan climbed, he struck and killed many Philistia soldiers, and the young man who was with him killed many more as he followed behind Jonathan.
Hagi ana mehimpi Jonatani'a azanteti azerino aganuti omere emere huno marenerigeno, hanko'are'ma e'neria nehaza ne'mo'a agumpi avaririno marerigeke, hara ome huke ana vahera zamahe'na'e.
14 In that first battle the two of them killed about 20 Philistia soldiers in an area that was about half an acre.
Hagi Jonatani'ene hanko'are'ma e'neria nehaza ne'enena, ese hapina 20'a vahera 30'a mita naza hu'nea mopafi ome zamahe'na'e.
15 Then all the other Philistia soldiers, the ones in the camp and the ones who had been attacking the Israeli towns, ones who were out in the field much closer, panicked. Then God caused the ground to shake, and they all became terrified/very afraid.
Hagi anama higeno'a Filistia sondia vahe'mokizmi kumapima mani'nazane, fegu'ma mani'nazane, kumate kumate'ma nevu'za ha'ma nehaza sondia vahe'ene, miko Filistia vahe'mokizmi mopafina imi erige'za, tusia zamagogogu hu'naze. E'ina korozana Ra Anumzamo eri fore hu'ne.
16 Saul’s (lookouts/men who were watching to see if enemies were coming) were in Gibeah [town] in the land of the tribe of Benjamin. They saw that the soldiers of the Philistia army were running away in all directions.
Hagi Benzameni mopa kazigama Soli naga'ma vahe'ma esagu kegava hu'za mani'naza naga'mo'za, kazana Filistia vahe kevu krefamo'za miko kaziga panani hu'za nefrage'za zamage'naze.
17 Saul [realized that some of his soldiers must have attacked the Philistia army. So he] said to the soldiers who were with him, “Check to see if any of our men are not here.” So they checked, and they found out that Jonathan and the man who carried his weapons were gone.
Ana zama fore higeno'a Soli'a sondia vahe huzmanteno, tamagra sondia vahera hamprita zamazeri antefatgo nehutma, iza amafina omaninefi keho. Hagi ana'ma hu'za hampriza kazana Jonatani'ene hanko'ama e'neria ne-enena omani'nake'za ke'naze.
18 So Saul said to Ahijah [the Supreme Priest], “Bring the sacred vest here [and find out what we should do].” On that day Ahijah was wearing the sacred vest, going in front of the Israelis.
Hagi Soli'a Ahizana amanage huno asami'ne, Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisia erinka eno. (Na'ankure ana knarera Israeli vahe'ene ana huhagerafi huvempage vogisia me'negeno hu'ne.)
19 But while Saul was talking to the priest, [he saw that] the Philistia soldiers were becoming more panicked/confused. So Saul said to Ahijah, “Take your hand down [from the sacred vest. Do not waste any more time using the marked stones in the vest to find out what Yahweh wants us to do.”]
Hagi pristi ne'enema kegagama anante'ma nehakeno'a, Filistia vahe kumapima panini hu'zama ufre efreme nehu'za rankege'ma nehaza zamo'a omerura hu'ne. Hianagi Soli'a pristi ne' Ahizana asamino, knareki atregeta hate vanune.
20 Then Saul gathered his men and they went toward the battle. They found that the Philistia soldiers were so confused that they were striking each other with their swords.
Anama hige'za Soli'ene miko sondia vahe'ane eri atru hute'za hatera vu'naze. Hagi Filistia vahe'mo'za neginagi hu'za zamagra zamagra bainati kazinknonteti ome zamahe fri eme zamahe fri nehazage'za ke'naze.
21 Before that, some of the Hebrew men had deserted their army and gone to join with the Philistia army. But now those men [revolted and] joined with Saul and Jonathan and the other Israeli soldiers.
Hagi ko'ma Filistia vahe'enema umani'naza Hibru sondia vahe'mo'za Jonatanine Solikizanirega ante'za Filistia vahera zamahe'naze.
22 Some of the Israeli soldiers had previously run away and hidden in the mountains where the tribe of Ephraim lived. But when they heard that the Philistia soldiers were running away, they [came down and] joined the other Israeli soldiers and pursued the Philistia soldiers.
Hagi mago'a Israeli vahe'ma Efraemi agona kokampima fraki'za mani'naza vahe'mo'za Filistia vahe'ma atre'za fraze kema nentahi'za, atirami'za zamagranena zamarotgo hu'za hara hu'naze.
23 So Yahweh rescued the Israelis on that day. The Israeli soldiers continued to pursue their enemies beyond Beth-Aven [town].
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a ana zupa Israeli vahera zamaza hige'za, Bet-Avenia hara hugatere'za vu'naze.
24 Before Saul’s soldiers went to the battle, Saul declared to them solemnly, “I do not want any of you to eat any food before this evening, before we have defeated all our enemies. If anyone eats anything, [Yahweh] will curse/punish him.” So none of the Israeli soldiers ate any food, and they became faint/weak because they were very hungry.
Hagi ana zupa Israeli vahe'mo'za ne'zana onazageno hanavezami omane amne hu'ne. Na'ankure Soli'a hanavenentake ke huno, ha' vahe'ni'a nona hu'na zamahe'za huankita menina ne'zana oneta mani'ne'nunkeno kinaga omasegahie. Hagi iza'o ne'zama nesimo'a, sifna huntoankino Anumzamo'a azeri haviza hugahie.
25 The Israeli army went into the forest, and they found honeycombs on the ground, but they did not eat any honey.
Hagi miko sondia vahe'mo'za zafafi ufre'za kazana tumerima'amo'a aviteno mopafina me'nege'za ke'naze. Hianagi mago'mo'e huno ana tumerina afino one'ne.
26 They were afraid to eat any, because they had solemnly promised that they would not eat any food.
Hagi tume rimo'a aviteno varehirami'neanagi Soli'ma hanave sifna kema hu'nea kegu kore nehu'za magore hu'za eri'za one'naze.
27 But Jonathan did not hear what his father commanded [because he had left the camp very early in the morning]. So [when he saw] a honeycomb, he dipped the end of his walking stick into it and ate some honey. After he ate the honey, he felt stronger.
Hagi hanave kema nefa'ma hu'nea kea Jonatani'a ontahi'neankino, azompa'areti tumemofo rima'a reno neneno ame huno ete hanavea erino ruvunase'ne.
28 But one of the Israeli soldiers saw him and said to him, “Your father solemnly declared to us that [Yahweh] would curse/punish anyone who ate any food today. So now we are [very tired and] weak from being hungry [because we obeyed him].”
Ana'ma higeno'a mago sondia ne'mo Jonatanina asamino, Negafa'a hanavege huno menina ne'zana oneho hu'ne. Hagi nesimo'a sifnafi manino haviza hugahie hu'negu ne'zana ama vahe'mo'za one mani'nageno hanavezamia omnegeno zamu evu evu nehie.
29 Jonathan exclaimed, “My father has caused trouble for all of us! See how refreshed/strong I am after eating a little honey!
Hagi Jonatani'a huno, Nenfa'ma hu'nea kemo'a mikomota tazeri haviza hu'ne. Hagi keho, osi'a tumerima'ama noana hanave erina runavunase'noe.
30 If he had permitted all of us to eat from the food we took from our enemies while we were pursuing them, we would have been able to kill many more of their soldiers!”
Hagi ne'zana neho hige'za ha'ma hazafinti'ma eri'za ne'zama ne'nazaresina, rama'a Filistia vahe zamahontesine.
31 The Israelis pursued and killed Philistia soldiers all that day, from Micmash [town west] to Aijalon. But they continued to become weaker from being hungry.
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za ana zupa ha'ma hu'nazana Filistia vahera Mikmasiti zamahe'za Aijaloni uhanatizageno, tusi zamavaresa higeno zaferina omane amne hu'ne.
32 They had taken [many] sheep and cattle that the Philistia soldiers had abandoned. Now, because they were extremely hungry, they butchered some of those animals and ate the meat without draining the blood from the animals.
Hagi ana kinaga zamagare'za vu'za hapinti'ma eri'za e'naza sipisipima agonknaza hari'naza ve bulimakao afu'ma anenta bulimakao afu'enena ome ahe'za kre onte'ante hu'za korana me'nege'za ne'naze.
33 One of the soldiers told Saul, “Look! The men are sinning against Yahweh by eating meat that still has blood in it!” Saul replied [to the men who were near him], “They have disobeyed Yahweh! Roll a large stone over here!”
Hagi anama hazage'za mago'a vahe'mo'za Solina eme asami'za, kora me'nea ame'a nene'za Ra Anumzamofo avufina kumi nehazanki ko, hu'za hazageno Soli'a huno, mikomota tra kea rutagrazanki menintafa vuta have rezahe huta amare ementeho.
34 After they did that, he said to those men, “Go and tell all the soldiers that each of them must bring an ox or a sheep to me, and kill it here on this stone, [and drain the blood] before he eats any of the meat. They should not sin against Yahweh by eating meat [from some animal] without draining its blood.” So that night all the soldiers brought animals and slaughtered them there. Then Saul built an altar to [worship] Yahweh.
Hagi vuta ome zamasaminke'za sipisipi afu'zamine bulimakao afu'zamia ru kora me'nesige'za nene'za kumi hanagi, amare eme aheho. Ana hazageno ana kenagera ana maka sondia vahe'mo'za bulimakao afu'zmia avare'za eme ahegi'naze.
35 That was the first [time that he built an] altar for Yahweh.
Anante Soli'a Ra Anumzamofonte'ma kresramana vunte ita tro hu'ne. E'i ana ita kora tro huno oke'neaza ese kna'a tro hu'ne.
36 Then Saul said [to the Israeli soldiers], “Let’s pursue the Philistia soldiers tonight. We can attack them all night. We will not allow any of them to escape alive.” The Israeli soldiers answered, “We will do whatever you think is the best thing for us to do.” But the priest said, “We should ask Yahweh [what he thinks we should do].”
Hagi Soli'a sondia vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, Enketa hanimpi vuta Filistia vahera hara ome hu'nezmantamanenkeno masa huno feruseno. Hagi magore huta ozamtregahunanki zamahe vagaregahune, hige'za sondia vahe'mo'za amanage hu'naze, Nazano huzmante'naku'ma hanana zana amane hugahane. Hianagi pristi ne'mo'a kenona huno, amare Anumzamofona antahigeta kesune.
37 So Saul asked God, “Should we pursue the Philistine soldiers? Will you enable us to defeat them?” But God did not answer Saul that day.
Higeno Soli'a Ra Anumzamofona antahigeno, knare natre'nanke'na Filistia vahera hara ome huzmantenugenka zamagrira Israeli vahe zamazampina zamavarentegahano? Hianagi ana zupa Ra Anumzamo'a kenona huonte'ne.
38 Then Saul summoned all the leaders of his army. He said to them, “[I am sure that God has not answered me because] someone has sinned. We must find out what sin someone has committed.
Ana higeno Soli'a sondia kva vahetamina kehu tru huno, Iza kumira hu'negeno Ra Anumzamo'a kea osifi, refako huta kesune.
39 Yahweh has rescued us [from the Philistia army]. Just as certain as Yahweh lives, whoever has sinned must be executed. Even if it is my son Jonathan who has sinned, he must be executed.” [His men knew who was guilty], but none of them said anything [to Saul].
Hagi Israeli vahe'ma zamavare'nea Ra Anumzamofo Agifi huvempage huankino, iza'o ana kumi'ma hu'nesimo'a frigahie. Hagi nenamofo Jonatanima ana kumi'ma hu'nenuno'a frigahie. Hianagi mago'mo'e huno ana hazenkegura kea osu'ne.
40 Then Saul said to all the Israeli soldiers, “You stand on one side. My son Jonathan and I will stand on the other side.” His men replied, “Do whatever you think is best.”
Hagi Soli'a mika Israeli vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, Nagrane ne' mofavreni'anena amare otigahuanki, tamagra anture uotiho, huno zamasamige'za zamagra hu'za, kagri'ma kavesi'niaza huo.
41 Then Saul prayed to Yahweh, the Israelis’ God, “Tell me who is guilty and who is not guilty.” Then the priest (cast lots/threw the stones that were marked), and they indicated that it was [either] Jonathan or Saul who was the guilty one, and that the other men were not guilty.
Anage hutazageno Soli'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne, Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzamoka ama ana kumi'ma nagrane ne' mofavreni'anema hu'ne'nunkenka, pristi vahe'ma keno erifore hu zagoma reno kenigenka, Urimi erintegeno keno. Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama kumi'ma hu'ne'nagenka, Tamimi erintege'za keho. Anante ana zokagoma re'za kazana, Soline nemofo Jonatani suzamo e'ama higeno, Israeli vahe'mokizmi su'zamo'a e'amara osu'ne.
42 Then Saul said to the priest, “Throw the stones again to indicate which of us two is guilty.” So he did, and the stones indicated that Jonathan was the guilty one.
Ana'ma higeno'a Soli'a huno, Nagri'ene nenamofo Jonataninte taisi zokagora reta keho, hige'za ana zokago'ma reza kazana, Jonatani su'amo e'ama hu'ne.
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done [that was wrong].” Jonathan replied, “I ate a little bit of honey. It was only a little bit that was on the end of my stick. Do I [deserve to be] executed [because of doing that]?”
Ana higeno Soli'a nemofo Jonatanina antahigeno, nankna kumi hu'nampi nasamio, higeno Jonatani'a huno, Nagra azompanireti tumerina re'na ne'noe. Hagi nagrikura frigahie hananki, nahe frige'na fri'neno!
44 Saul replied, “Yes, you must be executed! I hope/wish that God will strike me and kill me if you are not executed for having done that!”
Higeno Soli'a anage hu'ne, Ozo Jonataniga frigahane. Hagi kahe ofrisugeno'a Anumzamo'a nahe frigahie.
45 But the Israeli soldiers said to Saul, “Jonathan has won a great victory for all us Israelis. Should he be executed for eating some honey [RHQ]? Certainly not! Just as surely as Yahweh lives, we will not allow you to injure him in any manner [IDM], [because] today God helped Jonathan [to kill many soldiers of the Philistia army]!” So [by saying that] the Israeli soldiers rescued Jonathan, and he was not executed.
Hianagi sondia vahe'mo'za Solinkura hu'za, Ra ha'ma huno Israeli vahe'ma tavre'nea ne' Jonatani ahefrigahue nehano? Ra Anumzamofo agifina Jonatanina avufarera avako huge, ahe ofrigera osugahane. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'ene tragoteno mani'neno hanavetino hara hu'neankinka, ohegosane. Anage nehu'za Jonatanina agu'vaziza avrazageno, Soli'a ahe ofri'ne
46 Then Saul ordered his soldiers to stop pursuing the Philistia army, so the Philistia soldiers returned to their homes.
Hagi ana zama hutegeno'a Soli'a Filistia vahe'ma zamarotagoma nehiretira zamatreno marerige'za, Filistia vahe'mo'za, ete kuma zamirega vu'naze.
47 After Saul became the ruler/king of the Israeli people, his army fought against their enemies in many areas. They fought against armies of the Moab people-group, the Ammon people-group, the Edom people-group, the kings of Zobah [city/area], and the Philistia people-group. Wherever the Israeli army fought, they defeated their enemies.
Hagi Soli'ma eama huno Israeli vahe kinima maniteno'a, maka kazigama Israeli vahe'mokizmi ha' vahe'ma mani'naza vahera hara huzamante'ne. Moapu vahe'ma, Amoni vahe'ma, Edomu vahe'ma, Zoba kini vahe'ma, Filistia vahera miko hara huzamanteno zamazeri haviza hu'ne.
48 Saul’s army fought bravely and defeated the [very tall] descendants of Amalek. His army rescued the Israelis from those who had (plundered/forcefully taken things from) them.
Hagi hanavetino Amaleki vahera hara hunezamanteno, zamagri zamazampinti'ene ha'ma huzmante'za zamazeri havizama nehaza vahe'mokizmi zamazampintira Israeli vahera zamavare'ne.
49 Saul’s sons were Jonathan, Ishbosheth, and Malchishua. He also had two daughters, Merab and her younger sister Michal.
Hagi Soli ne' mofavreramina, Jonataniki, Isviki Malkisue. Hagi tare mofa zanante'neankino zage mofa'amofo agi'a Merabuki, henkamofo agi'a Mikeli'e.
50 Saul’s wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. The commander of Saul’s army was Abner, who was the son of Saul’s uncle Ner.
Hagi Soli nenaro agi'a Ahinoamukino, Ahimasi mofare. Hagi Soli sondia vahetema ugota hu'nea nemofo agi'a, Abnakino Neri nemofo'e. Hagi Neri'a, Solina nenogo'e.
51 Saul’s father Kish and Abner’s father Ner were both sons of Abiel.
Hagi Kisi'a Soli nefa manigeno, Neri'a Abna nefa mani'neankinke, zanagra kogna mani'na'e. Hagi nezanafa'a Abieli mani'ne.
52 All the time that Saul was alive, his army fought against the Philistia army. And whenever Saul saw a young man who was (brave/not afraid to fight) and strong, he forced him to join his army.
Hagi Soli'ma kinima manino e'nea knafina, Filistia vahe'enena rama'a zupa hara nehuno, koro'ma osu'za hanaveti'zama ha'ma haza Israeli vahera zamavareno agra'a sondia vahe zamantege'za mani'naze.
