< 1 Samuel 9 >

1 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.
Adda maysa a lalaki manipud Benjamin, maysa a mararaem a lalaki. Ti naganna ket Kis a putot ni Abiel, ni Abiel ket putot ni Zeror a putot ni Becorat, ni Becorat ket putot ni Afia, nga anak ti maysa a Benjamita.
2 And he had a son, whose name was Saul, a choice young man, and handsome: and there was not among the children of Israel a more handsome person than he: from his shoulders and upward he was taller than any of the people.
Addaan isuna iti anak a lalaki nga agnagan iti Saul, nataer a baro. Awanen ti natataer ngem isuna kadagiti tattao ti Israel. Panggat-abagana dagiti dadduma, nataytayag isuna ngem iti siasinoman kadagiti tattao.
3 And the donkeys of Kish Saul’s father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go seek the donkeys.
Ita, dagiti asno ni Kis nga ama ni Saul ket mapukpukaw. Isu a kinuna ni Kis kenni Saul nga anakna, “Mangitugotka iti maysa kadagiti adipen; agrubbuatka ket mapanyo biroken dagiti asno.”
4 And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they found them not: then they passed through the land of Shalim, and there they were not: and he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they found them not.
Isu a sinursor ni Saul ti turod a pagilian ti Efraim ket napan iti daga ti Salisa, ngem saanda a nasarakan dagitoy. Ket sinursorda ti daga ti Salim, ngem awanda sadiay. Ket sinursorda ti daga dagiti Benjamita, ngem saanda a nasarakan dagitoy.
5 And when they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that was with him, Come, and let us return; lest my father stop caring for the donkeys, and be troubled for us.
Idi nakadanonda iti daga ti Suf, kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna a kaduana, “Umayka, agsublitan, ta imbes a dagiti asno ti pagdanagan ti amak, saanen ta amangan no datan a dua ti pagdandanaganna.”
6 And he said to him, Behold now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass: now let us go there; perhaps he can show us our way that we should go.
Ngem kinuna ti adipen kenkuana, “Dumngegka, adda maysa a tao ti Dios iti daytoy a siudad. Maysa isuna a lalaki a mararaem; amin nga ibagana ket pumudno. Mapanta idiay; mabalin nga maibagana kadata ti dalan a rumbeng a papananta iti panagdaliasatta.”
7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, if we go, what shall we bring to the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and there is not a present to bring to the man of God: what have we?
Ket kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna, “Ngem no mapanta, ania ti maiyegta iti lalaki? Ta naibusen ti tinapay iti supotta, ket awan ti sagut a maiyegta iti tao ti Dios. Ania ti adda kadata?”
8 And the servant answered Saul again, and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver: that will I give to the man of God, to tell us our way.
Simmungbat ti adipen kenni Saul a kunana, “Adtoy, addaanak iti apagkapat ti pirak a siklo nga itedko iti tao ti Dios, tapno ibagana kadata no sadino ti rumbeng a papananta.”
9 (In times past in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, thus he spoke, Come, and let us go to the seer: for he that is now called a Prophet was in times past called a Seer.)
(Idi un-unana iti Israel, no kasta nga adda tao a mapan agdamag iti pagayatan ti Dios, kunana, “Umayka, mapanta iti ayan ti mammadto.” Ta dagiti profeta ita a tiempo ket maaw-awagan idi iti mammadto.)
10 Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went to the city where the man of God was.
Ket kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna, “Nasayaat ti imbagam. Umayka, mapantan.” Isu a napanda iti siudad nga ayan ti tao ti Dios.
11 And as they went up the hill to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said to them, Is the seer here?
Bayat a sumangsang-atda iti turod nga agturong iti siudad, nakasabatda kadagiti babbalasang a mapan sumakdo iti danum; kinuna ni Saul ken ti adipenna kadakuada, “Adda kadi ditoy ti mammadto?”
12 And they answered them, and said, He is; behold, he is before you: make haste now, for he came to day to the city; for there is a sacrifice of the people to day in the high place:
Simmungbatda ket kinunada, “Wen adda isuna; kitaenyo, immun-una laeng isuna ngem kadakayo. Darasenyo, ta mapan isuna ita idiay siudad ta mangidaton ita dagiti tattao idiay nangato a disso.
13 As soon as ye shall enter the city, ye shall immediately find him, before he goeth up to the high place to eat: for the people will not eat until he cometh, because he doth bless the sacrifice; and afterwards they eat that are invited. Now therefore go up; for about this time ye shall find him.
Apaman a makastrekkayo iti siudad, masarakanyo isuna, sakbay a sumang-at isuna iti nangato a disso tapno mangan. Saan a mangan dagiti tattao agingga a sumangpet isuna, gapu ta bendisionanna ti daton; kalpasanna, manganto dagiti naawis. Sumang-atkayo itan, ta masarakanyo isuna a dagus.”
14 And they went up into the city: and when they had come into the city, behold, Samuel came out meeting them, to go up to the high place.
Isu a simmang-atda idiay siudad. Iti iseserrekda iti siudad, nakitada ni Samuel a sumungsungad nga agturong kadakuada, a mapan iti nangato a disso.
15 Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying,
Ita, ti aldaw sakbay nga immay ni Saul, imbagan ni Yahweh kenni Samuel;
16 To morrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him to be captain over my people Israel, that he may save my people from the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked upon my people, because their cry hast come to me.
“Inton bigat iti kastoy met laeng nga oras, ibaonkonto kenka ti maysa a lalaki manipud iti daga ti Benjamin, ket pulotamto isuna nga agbalin a prinsipe dagiti amin a tattaok nga Israel. Isalakannanto dagiti tattaok iti ima dagiti Filisteo. Ta maasianak kadagiti tattaok gapu ta dimmanon kaniak dagiti asugda a dumawdawat iti tulong.”
17 And when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, Behold the man of whom I spoke to thee! this same shall reign over my people.
Idi nakita ni Samuel ni Saul, kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Adtoy ti lalaki nga imbagak kenka! Isuna ti mangituray kadagiti tattaok.”
18 Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the seer’s house is.
Ket immasideg ni Saul kenni Samuel iti ruangan ket kinunana, “Mabalin kadi nga ibagam kaniak no sadino ti balay ti mammadto?”
19 And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I am the seer: go up before me to the high place; for ye shall eat with me to day, and to morrow I will let thee go, and will tell thee all that is in thy heart.
Simmungbat ni Samuel kenni Saul ket kinunana, 'Siak ti mammadto. Umunakan a sumang-at idiay nangato a disso, ta makipanganka kaniak ita nga aldaw. Palubosankanto a pumanaw inton bigat, ket ibagakto kenka amin a banag nga adda iti panunotmo.
20 And as for thy donkeys that were lost three days ago, set not thy mind on them; for they are found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not on thee, and on all thy father’s house?
No maipapan kadagiti asnoyo a napukaw, tallo nga aldawen ti napalabas, saanyo ida a pakadanagan, ta nasapulanen dagitoy. Ket siasino koma ngay ti sabali a kayat ti Israel? Saan kadi a sika ken iti amin a sangkabalayan ti amam?”
21 And Saul answered and said, Am not I a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? why then speakest thou so to me?
Simmungbat ni Saul ket kinunana, “Saan kadi a maysaak a Benjamita, manipud iti kababassitan a tribu ti Israel? Saan kadi a ti pulik ti kababaan kadagiti amin a puli ti tribu ti Benjamin? Apay ngarud a kastoy ti wagas ti panagsaom kaniak?”
22 And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the parlour, and made them sit in the chief place among them that were invited, who were about thirty persons.
Isu nga inkuyog ni Samuel ni Saul ken ti adipenna, impanna ida idiay dakkel a kuarto, ket pinagtugawna ida iti kangrunaan a tugaw dagiti naawis, nga aggarup tallopulo a tattao.
23 And Samuel said to the cook, Bring the portion which I gave thee, of which I said to thee, Set it by thee.
Kinuna ni Samuel iti kusinero, “Iyegmo ti paset nga intedko kenka, nga imbagak kenka, 'Ilasinmo daytoy.'”
24 And the cook took up the shoulder, and that which was upon it, and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, Behold that which is left! set it before thee, and eat: for to this time hath it been kept for thee since I said, I have invited the people. So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
Isu nga innala ti kusinero ti luppo a nailasin iti daton ken ti adda iti daytoy, ket indasarna iti sangoanan ni Saul. Ket kinuna ni Samuel, “Daytoy ti naidulin para kenka! Kanem daytoy, gapu ta nailasinen daytoy a para kenka sakbay pay iti naituding a tiempo a panangawisko kadagiti tattao. Isu a nakipangan ni Saul kenni Samuel iti dayta nga aldaw.
25 And when they had come down from the high place into the city, Samuel talked with Saul upon the top of the house.
Idi simmalogda idiay siudad manipud iti nangato a disso, nakisarita ni Samuel kenni Saul iti tuktok ti balay.
26 And they rose early: and it came to pass about the dawn of the day, that Samuel called Saul to the top of the house, saying, Arise, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, abroad.
Ket iti parbangon, inayaban ni Samuel ni Saul nga adda iti tuktok ti balay ket kinunana, “Bumangonkan, tapno maparubuatanka.” Isu a bimmangon ni Saul, ket nagkuyogda kenni Samuel a napan iti kalsada.
27 And as they were going down to the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the servant pass on before us, (and he passed on, ) but stand thou still a while, that I may show thee the word of God.
Bayat a mapmapanda iti ruar ti siudad, kinuna ni Samuel kenni Saul, “Ibagam iti adipen nga umun-una ngem kadata (ket immun-una isuna), ngem agtalinaedka pay ditoy iti apagbiit, tapno maibagak ti mensahe ti Dios kenka.”
