1 Samuel 14
1 And it bifelde in a day, that Jonathas, the sone of Saul, seide to his squyer, a yong man, Come thou, and passe we to the staciouns of the Filisteis, which is biyende that place; `sotheli he schewide not this same thing to his fadir.
Siku moja, Yonathani mwana wa Sauli alimwambia mbeba silaha wake aliye mdogo, “Njoo, hebu twende hadi upande mwingine kwenye ngome ya Wafilisti.” Lakini hakumjulisha baba yake.
2 Sotheli Saul dwellide in the laste part of Gabaa, vndur a pumgarnarde tre, that was in the feeld of Gabaa; and the puple as of sixe hundrid men was with hym.
Sauli alikuwa akikaa nje ya mji wa Gibea chini ya mti wa mkomamanga ulio katika Migroni. Takribani watu mia sita walikwa pamoja naye,
3 And Achias, sone of Achitob, brother of Icaboth, sone of Fynees, that was gendrid of Ely, preest of the Lord in Silo, bar ephod, `that is, the preestis cloth; but also the puple wiste not whidur Jonathas hadde go.
akiwemo Ahiya mwana wa Ahitubu (nduguye Ikabodi) mwana wa Finehasi, mwana wa Eli, kuhani wa BWANA huko Shilo, aliyevaa naivera. Watu hao hawakujua kwamba Yonathani ameondoka.
4 Sotheli bitwixe the stiyngis, bi whiche Jonathas enforside to passe to the stacioun of Filisteis, weren stonys stondynge forth on euer either side, and scarris brokun bifore bi the maner of teeth on ech syde; name to oon was Boses, and name to `the tother was Sene;
Katikati ya vichochoro, ambavyo Yonathani alinuia kuvipita hadi ngome ya Wafilisti, kulikuwa na mwamba wenye mteremko mkali upande mmoja, na mteremko mkali upande mwingine. Jabali moja liliitwa Bosesi, na jingine liliitwa Sene.
5 o scarre was stondynge forth to the north ayens Machynas, and the tother scarre to the south ayens Gabaa.
Lile jabali lenye mteremko mkali zaidi liliinuka upande wa kaskazini mbele ya Mikmashi, na jingine upande wa kusini mbele ya Geba.
6 Forsothe Jonathas seide to his yong squyer, Come thou, passe we to the stacioun of these vncircumcisid men, if in hap the Lord do for vs; for it is not hard to the Lord to saue, ethir in manye ethir in fewe.
Yonathani akamwambia kijana mbeba silaha, “Njoo, na tuvuke hadi ngome ya hawa wasiotahiriwa. Pengine BWANA atatenda kwa niaba yetu, kwa maana hakuna kitu kiwezacho kumzuia BWANA asiokoe kwa wengi au kwa watu wachache.”
7 And his squyer seide to hym, Do thou alle thingis that plesen thi soule; go whidur thou coueitist, Y schal be with thee, where euer thou wolt.
Mbeba silaha wake akajibu, “Fanya kila kitu kilicho ndani ya moyo wako. Songa mbele, tazama, niko pamoja nawe, nitatii maagizo yako yote.”
8 And Jonathas seide, Lo! we passen to these men; and whanne we apperen to hem,
Ndipo Yonathani akasema, “Tutavuka twende kwa watu hao, na tutajionesha wenyewe kwao.
9 if thei speken thus to vs, Dwelle ye, til we comen to you; stonde we in oure place, and stie we not to hem.
Kama watatuambia, 'Subirini hapo hadi tutakapokuja kwenu' - basi tutabaki katika sehemu yetu na hatutavuka kwenda kwao.
10 Sotheli if thei seien, Stye ye to vs; stie we, for the Lord hath bitake hem in oure hondis; this schal be a signe to vs.
Lakini kama watajibu, 'Njoni kwetu,' ndipo tutavuka; kwa sababu BWANA amewaweka mkononi mwetu. Hii ndiyo itakuwa ishara yetu.”
11 `Therfor euer either apperide to the stacioun of Filisteis; and Filisteis seiden, Lo! Ebreis goen out of caues, in whiche thei weren hid.
Kwa hiyo wote wawili wakajifunua mbele ya ngome ya Wafilisti. Wafilisti wakasema, “Angalia, Webrania wanakuja kutokea kwenye mashimo walimojificha.”
12 And men of the stacioun spaken to Jonathas and to his squyer, and seiden, Stie ye to vs, and we schulen schewe to you a thing. And Jonathas seide to his squyer, `Stie we, sue thou me; for the Lord hath bitake hem in to the hondis of Israel.
Ndipo watu wa ile ngome wakamwita Yonathani na mbeba silaha wake, wakisema, “Njoni huku kwetu, tutawaonesha jambo fulani.” Na Yonathani akamwambia mbeba silaha wake; “Nifuate nyuma yangu, kwa sababu BWANA amewaweka katika mkono wa Israeli.”
13 Forsothe Jonathas stiede crepynge on hondis and feet, and his squyer after hym; and whanne thei hadden seyn the face of Jonathas, summe felden doun bifor Jonathas, his squier killed othere, and suede hym.
Yonathani alipanda juu kwa mikono na miguu yake, na mbeba silaha akimfuata nyuma yake. Wafilisti waliuwawa mbele ya Yonathani, na mbeba silaha wake akiwaua baadhi nyuma yake.
14 And the firste wounde was maad, which Jonathas and his squyer smoot, as of twenti men, in `the myddil part of lond which a peire of oxun was wont to ere in the dai.
Hilo shambulio la kwanza walilofanya Yonathani na mbeba silaha wake, waliua watu wapatao ishirini katika urefu wa nusu handaki kwenye eka moja ya ardhi.
15 And a myracle was don in the castels, and bi the feeldis, but also al the puple of the `stacioun of hem that yeden out to take prey, dredde, and `the castels weren disturblid; and it bifelde as a myracle of God.
Kukawa na hofu kubwa katika kambi, uwandani, na katika watu. Hata ngome ya jeshi na watekaji nyara nao wakawa na hofu kubwa
16 And aspyeris of Saul bihelden, that weren in Gabaa of Beniamyn, and lo! a multitude cast doun, and fleynge awei hidur and thidur.
Ndipo walinzi wa Sauli huko Gibea ya Benyamini wakaona kundi la askari wa Wafilisti likitawanyika, wakienda kule na huku.
17 And Saul seide to the puple that weren with hym, Seke ye, and se ye, who yede awei fro vs. And whanne thei hadden souyt, it was foundun, that Jonathas and his squyer weren not present.
Kisha Sauli akawaambia watu aliokuwa nao, “Mjihesabu ili muone nani hayupo hapa.”Walipokuwa wamehesabu, wakagundua kuwa Yonathani na mbebaji wa silaha zake hawapo.
18 And Saul seide to Achias, Brynge the arke of the Lord; for the arke of God was there in that dai with the sones of Israel.
Sauli akamwambia Ahiya, “Lete hapa naivera ya Mungu”- kwa maana siku hiyo Ahiya alivaa naivera akiwa pamoja na askari wa Israeli.
19 And whanne Saul spak to the preest, a grete noise roos in the castelis of Filisteis; and it encresside litil and litil, and sownede cleerliere. And Saul seide to the preest, Withdraw thin hond.
Wakati Sauli akiongea na kuhani, kelele na ghasia kubwa iliendelea na kuongezeka katika kambi ya Wafilisti. dipo sauli akamwambia kuhani, “Acha kazi unayofanya.”
20 Therfor Saul criede, and al the puple that was with hym; and thei camen `til to the place of batel, and, lo! the swerd of ech man was turned to his neiybore, and a ful grete sleynge was.
Sauli na watu wote aliokuwa nao wakajipanga na kwenda kwenye mapigano. Upanga wa kila Mfilisti ulikwa juu ya Mfilisti mwenzake, na kulikuwa na ghasia kubwa.
21 But also Ebreis that weren with Filisteis yistirday and the thridde dai ago, and hadde stied with hem in castels, turneden ayen to be with Israel, that weren with Saul and Jonathas.
Basi Waebrania ambao mwanzoni walijiunga na Wafilisti, na kwenda kwenye kambi yao, wao pia waliungana na Waisraeli waliokuwa pamoja na Sauli na Yonathani.
22 Also alle men of Israel, that hadden hid hem silf in the hil of Effraym, herden that Filisteis hadden fled; and thei felouschipiden hem silf with her men in batel, and as ten thousynde of men weren with Saul.
Waisraeli wote waliokuwa wamejificha katika milima karibu na Efraimu waliposikia kwamba Wafilisti wamekimbia, nao pia wakawafuata Wafilisti nakuwafukuza kwenye hiyo vita.
23 And the Lord sauyde Israel in that day. Sotheli the batel cam til to Bethauen.
Hivyo siku hiyo BWANA aliwaokoa Israeli, na mapigano yalivuka kupitiliza Beth aveni.
24 And men of Israel weren felouschipid to hem silf in that dai; forsothe Saul swoor to the puple, and seide, Cursid be the man, that etith breed `til to euentid, til `Y venge me of myn enemyes.
Siku hiyo watu wa Israeli walifadhaika kwa sababu Sauli aliwaweka watu chini ya kiapo akasema, “Na alaaniwe mtu atakaye kula chakula kabla ya jioni na kabla sijalipiza kisasi kwa maadui zangu.” Hivyo hakuna hata mmoja kati ya watu wote aliyeonja chakula.
25 And al the puple ete not breed. And al the comyn puple of the lond cam in to a forest, in which was hony on the `face of erthe.
Ndipo watu wote wakaingia msituni na kuona asali ikiwa juu ya ardhi.
26 And so the puple entride in to the forest, and flowynge hony apperide; and no man puttide hond to his mouth, for the puple dredde the ooth.
Watu walipoingia humo msituni, asali ilitiririka, lakini hakuna aliyeweka mkono wake kinywani kwa maana watu waliogopa kiapo.
27 Forsothe Jonathas herde not, whanne his fadir swoor to the puple; and he helde forth the ende of a litil yerde, whiche he hadde in the hond, and dippide in to `a coomb of hony; and he turnede his hond to his mouth, and hise iyen weren liytned.
Lakini Yonathani alikuwa hajasikia kwamba baba yake amewaagiza watu kwa kiapo. Akanyoosha ncha ya fimbo iliyokuwa mkononi mwake na kuichovya kwenye sega la asali. Kisha akanyoosha mkono wake hadi kinywani mwake, na macho yake yakaangaziwa.
28 And oon of the puple answeride, and seide, Thi fader boond the puple with an ooth, and seide, Cursid be the man that etith breed to dai. Forsothe the puple was feynt.
Ndipo mmoja wa watu hao, akamwambia, “Baba yako aliwaagiza watu kwa mkazo na kwa kiapo, kwa kusema, 'Alaaniwe mtu atakaye kula chakula kwa siku ya leo,' ingawa watu wamedhoofika kwa ajili ya njaa.”
29 And Jonathas seide, My fadir hath disturblid the lond; ye sien, that myn iyen ben liytned, for Y tastide a litil of this hony;
Baadaye Yonathani alisema, “Baba yangu amefanya matatizo katika nchi. Angalia jinsi macho yangu alivyotiwa nuru kwa sababu nilionja asali hii kidogo.
30 hou myche more if the puple hadde ete the prey of hise enemyes, which `prey it foond; whether not gretter veniaunce hadde be maad in Filisteis?
Je, siyo vivuri sana kama leo watu wangekula bila kizuizi nyara walizopata kutoka kwa maadui zao? Kwa sababu sasa mauaji hayakuwa makubwa katikati ya Wafilisti.”
31 Therfore thei smytiden Filisteis in that dai fro Machynas `til in to Hailon. Forsothe the puple was maad ful wery;
Siku hiyo waliwashambulia Wafilisti kutoka Mikmashi hadi Aiyaloni. Na watu walikuwa wamechoka sana.
32 and the puple turnede to prey, and took scheep and oxun, and calues; and thei killiden in the erthe; and the puple eet with blood.
Hivyo watu wakazivamia nyara na kuchukua kondoo, ng'ombe na ndama na kuwachinja hapo chini. Watu walikula nyama zao pamoja na damu.
33 And thei telden to Saul, and seiden, that the puple etynge with blood hadde synned to the Lord. And Saul seide, Ye han trespassid; walewe ye to me `riyt now a greet stoon.
KIsha wakamwambia Sauli, “Tazama, watu wanamtenda BWANA dhambi kwa kula pamoja na damu.” Sauli akasema, “Mmetenda isivyo haki. Sasa, viringisheni jiwe kubwa kwangu.” Sauli akasema,
34 And Saul seyde, `Be ye spred abrood in to the comyn puple, and seie ye to hem, that ech man brynge to me his oxe and ram; and sle ye on this stoon, and ete ye, and ye schulen not do synne to the Lord, `and ete with blood. Therfor al the puple brouyte ech man an oxe in his hond `til to nyyt, and thei killiden there.
“Nendeni kati watu, na muwaambie, 'Kila mtu alete ng'ombe na kondoo wake, wawachinje hapa, na kuwala. Msimtende BWANA dhambi kwa kula na damu.”' Kwa hiyo watu wote wakaleta kila mtu na ng'ombe wake usiku huo na kuwachinja mahali hapo.
35 Sotheli Saul bildide an auter to the Lord; and thanne firste he bigan to bilde an auter to the Lord.
Sauli akamjengea BWANA madhabahu, ambayo ilikuwa ya kwanza kwake kumjengea BWANA.
36 And Saul seide, Falle we on the Filisteis in the nyyt, and waste we hem til the morewtid schyne; and leeue we not of hem a man. And the puple seide, Do thou al thing that semeth good to thee in thin iyen. And the preest seide, Neiye we hidur to God.
Ndipo Sauli akasema, “Haya tuwafukuze Wafilisti usiku na kuwateka nyara hadi asubuhi; tusimwache hata mtu mmoja akiwa hai.” Nao wakamjibu, “Fanya unaloona linakupendeza.” Lakini kuhani akasema, “Hebu na tumkaribie Mungu mahali hapa.”
37 And Saul counselide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal pursue Filisteis? whether thou schalt bitake hem in to the hondis of Israel? And the Lord answeride not to him in that dai.
Sauli alitaka kumuuliza Mungu maswali zaidi, “Je, inanipasa kuwafukuza Wafilisti? Je, utawaweka katika mkono wa Israeli?” Lakini siku hiyo BWANA hakumjibu kitu.
38 And Saul seide, Brynge ye hidur alle the corneris of the puple, and wite ye, and se, bi whom this synne bifelde to dai.
Ndipo Sauli akasema, “Njoni hapa, viongozi wote wa watu; mjue na kuona jinsi dhambi hii ilivyotokea leo.
39 The Lord sauyour of Israel lyueth; for if `it is don bi Jonathas my sone, he schal die with out ayen drawyng. At which ooth no man of al the puple ayenseide hym.
Kwa maana, kama BWANA aishivyo, aliyewaokoa Israeli, hata kama angekuwa mwanangu Yonathani, atapaswa kufa.” Lakini hakuna hata mtu mmoja miongoni mwa watu aliye mjibu neno.
40 And he seide to al Israel, Be ye departid in to o part, and Y with my sone Jonathas schal be in the tothir part. And the puple answeride to Saul, Do thou that, that semeth good in thin iyen.
Basi akawaambia Waisraeli wote, “Simameni upande mmoja, na mimi na Yonathani tutasimama upande mwingine.” Kisha watu wakamwambia Sauli, “Fanya lile unaloona jema kwako.”
41 And Saul seide to the Lord God of Israel, Lord God of Israel, yyue thou doom, what is, that thou answerist not to dai to thi seruaunt? If this wickidness is in me, ether in Jonathas my sone, yyue thou schewyng; ether if this wickidnesse is in thi puple, yyue thou hoolynesse. And Jonathas was takun, and Saul; forsothe the puple yede out.
Kwa hiyo, Sauli akamwambia BWANA, Mungu wa Israeli, “Tuoneshe Thumimu.” Yonathani na Sauli wakatwaliwa, lakini watu walinusurika kuchaguliwa.
42 And Saule seide, Sende ye lot bitwixe me and Jonathas my sone. And Jonathas was takun `bi lot.
Basi Sauli akasema, “Tupa mawe ya bahati nasibu tuone kati yangu na mwanangu Yonathani.” Ndipo Yonathani akatwaliwa.
43 Forsothe Saul seide to Jonathas, Schewe thou to me, what thou didist. And Jonathas schewide to hym, and seide, Y tastynge tastide a litil of hony `in the ende of the yerde, that was in myn hond; and lo!
Kisha Sauli akamwambia Yonathani, “Niambie umefanya nini.” Yonathani akamwambia baba yake, “Nilionja asali kidogo kwa kutumia ncha ya fimbo iliyokuwa mkononi mwangu. Niko hapa; Nitakufa.”
44 Y die. And Saul seide, God do to me these thingis, and adde `these thingis, for thou, Jonathas, schalt die bi deeth.
Sauli akasema, “Mungu afanye hivyo na kuzidi hata kwangu, kama Yonathani hautakufa.”
45 And the puple seide to Saul, `Therfor whethir Jonathas schal die, that dide this greet helthe in Israel? this is vnleueful; the Lord lyueth; noon heer of his heed schal falle in to erthe; for he wrouyte with God to dai. Therfor the puple delyuerede Jonathas, that he diede not.
Basi watu wakamuuliza Sauli, “Je, inampasa Sauli afe, ni nani aliyetekeleza ushindi huu mkubwa kwa ajili ya Israeli? Mbali na hayo! Kama BWANA aishivyo, hata unywele mmoja wa kichwa chake hautaanguka chini, kwa maana leo amefanya kazi pamoja na Mungu.” Hivyo hao watu walimuokoa Yonathani ili asife.
46 And Saul yede a wey, and pursuede not Filisteis; sotheli Filisteys yeden in to her places.
Basi Sauli akasita kuwafuatia Wafilisti, nao wakarudi katika makao yao.
47 And Saul, whanne the rewme was `confermyd on Israel, fauyt bi cumpas ayens alle hise enemyes, ayens Moab, and the sones of Amon, and Edom, and ayens the kyngis of Soba, and ayens Filisteis; and whidur euer he turnede hym, he ouercam.
Sauli alipoanza kutawala juu ya Israeli, alipigana na adui zake wote kila upande. Alipigana dhidi ya Moabu, dhidi ya watu wa Amoni, Edomu, wafalme wa Zoba, na Wafilisti. Popote alipogeukia aliwapiga kwa adhabu adui zake.
48 And whanne the oost was gaderid, he smoot Amalech; and delyuerede Israel fro the hond of hise distrieris.
Alitenda kwa ushujaa mkubwa na kuwashinda Waamaleki. Aliwaokoa Israeli kutoka mikono ya watu ambao waliwateka nyara.
49 Forsothe the sones of Saul weren Jonathas, and Jesuy, and Melchisua; the names of hise twei douytris, name of the firste gendrid douyter was Merob, and name `of the lesse douyter was Mycol.
Basi wana wa Sauli walikuwa ni hawa Yonathani, Ishvi, na Malkishua. Na majina ya binti zake wawili yalikuwa ni haya, Merabu mzaliwa wa kwanza, na mdogo aliitwa Mikali.
50 And name of `the wijf of Saul was Achynoem, the douytir of Achymaas; and the name of the prince of his chyualrye was Abner, sone of Ner, brother of the fadir of Saul.
Jina la mke wa Sauli aliitwa Ahinoamu; naye alikuwa binti Ahimaasi. Na jina la Jemedari wa jeshi lake aliitwa Abneri mwana wa Neri, baba mdogo wa Sauli.
51 Forsothe Cys was the fadir of Saul; and Ner, the sone of Abiel, was fadir of Abner.
Kishi alikuwa baba yake Sauli; na Neri alikuwa baba yake na Abneri, wote walikuwa wana wa Abieli.
52 Sotheli myyti batel was ayens Filisteis in alle the daies of Saul; for whom euere Saul siy a strong man and schapli to batel, Saul felouschipide to him silf that man.
Kulikuwa na mapigano makali dhidi ya Wafilisti katika siku zote za Sauli. Naye alipomwona mtu yeyote mwenye nguvu, au mtu yeyote jasiri, alimuunganisha kwake.
