< 1 Samuel 31 >

1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
Filisxeemonni yeroo kanatti Israaʼelitti waraana kaasan; Israaʼeloonnis isaan duraa baqatan; hedduun isaaniis Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti dhuman.
2 The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
Filisxeemonni ittuma jabeessanii Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa ariʼan; isaanis ilmaan isaa jechuunis Yoonaataan, Abiinaadaabii fi Malkii-Shuwaa ajjeesan.
3 The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the archers.
Lollis naannoo Saaʼolitti baayʼee cime; warri xiyyaan lolanis isa qaqqabanii akka malee isa madeessan.
4 Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through and abuse me!” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on it.
Saaʼolis namicha miʼa lolaa isaa baatuun, “Goraadee kee luqqifadhuutii na waraani; yoo kanaa achii namoonni dhagna hin qabamin kunneen dhufanii na waraananii natti taphatuu” jedhe. Namichi miʼa lolaa baatuuf sun garuu waan akka malee sodaateef isa hin waraanne; kanaafuu Saaʼol goraadee ofii isaa luqqifatee irratti kufe.
5 When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died with him.
Namichi miʼa lolaa baatu sun yommuu akka Saaʼol duʼe argetti innis goraadee ofii isaa irratti kufee Saaʼol wajjin duʼe.
6 So Saul died with his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men that same day together.
Kanaafuu Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan, namichi miʼa lolaa baatuu fi namoonni isaa hundinuu gaafasuma walumaan dhuman.
7 When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were beyond the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
Israaʼeloonni qarqara sululaatii fi gama Yordaanos jiran yommuu akka loltoonni Israaʼel baqatanii fi akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaas dhuman arganitti magaalaawwan isaanii dhiisanii baqatan. Filisxeemonni immoo dhufanii keessa qubatan.
8 On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
Filisxeemonnis guyyaa itti aanutti yommuu warra dhuman irraa hidhannaa hiikkachuu dhufanitti, akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti kukkufanii jiran argan.
9 They cut off his head, stripped off his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols and to the people.
Isaanis mataa Saaʼol irraa kutanii, miʼa lolaa isa irraa fudhatanii akka isaan mana waaqota tolfamoo isaanii keessattii fi saba isaaniitiif oduu kana labsaniif guutummaa biyya Filisxeemotaa keessa ergamoota ergan.
10 They put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.
Isaanis miʼa lolaa isaa mana Ashtooreti waaqicha tolfamaa keessa kaaʼan; reeffa isaa immoo dallaa Beet Shaanitti hodhan.
11 When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
Namoonni Yaabeesh Giliʼaad yommuu waan Filisxeemonni Saaʼolin godhan dhagaʼanitti,
12 all the valiant men arose, went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.
namoonni jajjaboon isaanii hundi halkaniin kaʼanii dhaqanii reeffa Saaʼolii fi reeffa ilmaan isaa dallaa Beet Shaan irraa buusanii gara Yaabeeshitti fidanii achitti guban.
13 They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
Ergasii lafee isaanii fuudhanii Yaabeeshitti muka tamirii jalatti awwaalan; bultii torbas ni sooman.
