1 Samuel 11
1 Then Nahash the Ammonite came up and encamped against Jabesh Gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, “Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.”
Nionjoñe mb’eo amy zao t’i Nakase nte-Amone, nitobe am-piatrefañe Iabese-Gilade eo: le nanao ty hoe amy Nakase iaby o nte-Iabeseo: Mifañinà ama’ay vaho hitoroña’ay.
2 Nahash the Ammonite said to them, “On this condition I will make it with you, that all your right eyes be gouged out. I will make this dishonour all Israel.”
Le hoe t’i Nakase nte-Amone am’ iereo: Inao arè ty fepètse hanoeko ama’ areo, te songa hakatrake o fihaino’ areo ankavanao ho fañinjeañe am’ Israele iaby.
3 The elders of Jabesh said to him, “Give us seven days, that we may send messengers to all the borders of Israel; and then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you.”
Le hoe o mpiaolo’ Iabeseo ama’e: Toloro fito androm-panintsiñan-jahay hañitrifa’ay mb’an-tane’ Israele iaby; ie amy zay naho tsy eo ty handrombak’ anay le hiakatse mb’ama’o mb’eo.
4 Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul, and spoke these words in the ears of the people, then all the people lifted up their voice and wept.
Nivotrake e Gibàn-tSaole ao o ìrakeo le nisaontsie’e an-dravembia’ondatio i entañe zay vaho fonga nipoñake ty rovetse ondatio.
5 Behold, Saul came following the oxen out of the field; and Saul said, “What ails the people that they weep?” They told him the words of the men of Jabesh.
Nañorike mpirai-troke boak’ an-tetek’ ao t’i Saole, le hoe t’i Saole: Ino ty mañore ondatio t’ie mirovetse? Aa le nitalilia’ iareo ty saontsi’ o nte-Iabeseo.
6 God’s Spirit came mightily on Saul when he heard those words, and his anger burnt hot.
Ie nahajanjiñe i entañe zay t’i Saole le nentoe’ ty Arofon’ Añahare, vaho nisolebotse ty haviñera’e.
7 He took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, then sent them throughout all the borders of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, “Whoever doesn’t come out after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen.” The dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.
Rinambe’e i katràka mpirai-joka rey, le linili-lili’e, naho nahitri’e mb’an-tane’ Israele mb’eo mb’eo am-pitàn’ ìrake, ami’ty hoe: Ze tsy mionjoñe mb’eo am-panonjohizañe i Saole naho am-pañorihañe i Samoele, le zao ka ty hanoañe o katràka’eo. Aa le nifetsak’ am’ondatio ty fañeveñañe am’ Iehovà, vaho niakatse mb’eo hoe ondaty raike.
8 He counted them in Bezek; and the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
Niahe’e e Betseke ao: telo hetse ty ana’ Israele vaho telo-ale o nte-Iehodao.
9 They said to the messengers who came, “Tell the men of Jabesh Gilead, ‘Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you will be rescued.’” The messengers came and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
Aa le hoe ty asa’ iareo amo ìrake nivotrakeo: Zao ty ho enta’ areo amo nte-Iabese-giladeo: hamaray aolo’ ty mafana-voho t’ie hitendreke rombake. Nibalike naho nitalily amo nte-Iabeseo o irakeo le niehake,
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, “Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you shall do with us all that seems good to you.”
vaho hoe o nte-Iabeseo: Hamaray ty hiakara’ay mb’ ama’ areo vaho hanoe’ areo ama’ay ze satrin’ arofo’ areo.
11 On the next day, Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the middle of the camp in the morning watch, and struck the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who remained were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
Aa ie maraiñe, zinara’ i Saole an-dia-rai’e telo ondatio le nimoak’ an-tobe ao am-pijilovañe maraindraiñey vaho zinevo’ iereo o nte-Amoneo am-para’ te mafana-voho; niparaitake iaby ze nisisa kanao tsy nahaisahañe roe miharo lia.
12 The people said to Samuel, “Who is he who said, ‘Shall Saul reign over us?’ Bring those men, that we may put them to death!”
Le hoe ondatio amy Samoele; Ia o nivolañe ty hoe: Hahafehe antika hao t’i Saoleo? Aseseo mb’atoa indaty rezay hañohofan-doza.
13 Saul said, “No man shall be put to death today; for today the LORD has rescued Israel.”
Fe hoe t’i Saole: Leo raik’ am’ondatio tsy havetrake te anito, fa nanao fandrombahañe e Israele ao t’Iehovà anindroany.
14 Then Samuel said to the people, “Come! Let’s go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.”
Le hoe t’i Samoele am’ondatio, Antao homb’ e Gilgale mb’eo hamentesan-tika ty fifeheañe.
15 All the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
Aa le niheo mb’e Gilgale mb’eo ondaty iabio naho nanoe’ iereo mpanjaka añatrefa’ Iehovà e Gilgale t’i Saole; le nisoroñe engam-panintsiñañe añatrefa’ Iehovà; vaho nandia taroba t’i Saole naho o ana’ Israele iabio.
