< 1 Samuel 5 >

1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Eben-ezer to Ashdod.
Aa ie tinava’ o nte-Pilistio i vatan’ Añaharey, le nente’ iareo boak’ Ebene-ha’ ezere mb’e Asdode mb’eo.
2 When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
Rinambe’ o nte-Pilistio i vatan’Añaharey le nazili’ iareo añ’anjomba’ i Dagone ao vaho napo’ iareo marine’ i Dagone eo.
3 And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon [had] fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
Ie nitroatse maraindraiñe o nte-Asdodeo, hehe te nideroñe an-tarehe’e an-tane añatrefa’ i vata’ Iehovày t’i Dagone. Rinambe’ iareo t’i Dagone vaho natroa’ iareo an-toe’e indraike.
4 And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon had fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD: and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands [were] cut off upon the threshhold; only [the stump of] Dagon was left to him.
Ie nañampitso, hehe te nihotrak’ an-tarehe’e an-tane añatrefa’ i vata’ Iehovày t’i Dagone vaho nikitsik’ ama’e ty loha’ i Dagone naho ty taña’e roe an-tokonañe eo; ty vata’ i Dagone avao ty nisisa.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshhold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
Aa le tsy lia’ o mpisoro’ i Dagone mimoak’ añ’anjomba’ i Dagone ao ty tokona’ i Dagone e Asdode ao ampara henane.
6 But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, [even] Ashdod, and its borders.
Navesatse amo nte-Asdodeo ty fità’ Iehovà, ie binaibai’e, naho linafa’e am-pibokalìtan’ akobo ty Asdode naho o mañohok’ azeo.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that [it was] so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is severe upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
Aa naho nitendrek’ amo nte-Asdodeo i rahay, le hoe iereo, Tsy himoneñe aman-tikañe atoy ka i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley, amy te maràñe aman-tika naho amy Dagone ‘ndraharen-tika ty fità’e.
8 They sent therefore, and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel [thither].
Aa le nañitrike naho natontoñe iaby o roandria’ o nte-Pilistio vaho nanao ty hoe: Hanoen-tika ino i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley? le hoe ty natoi’ iareo, Ampitarazoeñe mb’e Gate mb’eo i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley. Aa le nendese’ iareo mb’eo i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley.
9 And it was [so], that after they had carried it thither, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts.
Ie amy zao, naho fa nitarazoeñe mb’eo, le nanilofe’ ty fità’ Iehovà i rovay, nampangebahebahe’e naho linafa’e ondati’ i rovaio, ty bey naho ty kede iaby vaho niborak’ am-pimeñara’ iareo ao o fibokaliran’ akoboo.
10 Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.
Aa le nahitri’ iereo mb’e Ekrone mb’eo i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey. Aa ie nivo­trake Ekrone eo i vatam-pañinan’ Añaharey, le nikoaike ty hoe o nte-Ekroneo: Nen­dese’ iareo mb’etoa i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley, hanjamana’e antika naho ondatin-tikañeo.
11 So they sent and convened all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
Nampañitrife’ iareo amy zao o hene’ talèn-te-Pilistio, le nanao ty hoe, Iraho añe i vatam-pañinan’ Añahare’ Israeley, vaho angao himpolia’e mb’an-toe’e mb’eo, tsy mone hanjevoñ’ antika naho ondatin-tikañeo; amy te fañohofan-doza ty nandrambañe i rovay; fa navesatse ama’e ty fitàn’ Añahare.
12 And the men that died not, were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
Nanilofeñe fibokalirañe nitsovovòke ondaty tsy nihomakeo; vaho nionjomb’ an-dikeram-b’eo ty fitoreova’ i rovay.
