< 1 Samuel 15 >

1 And Samuel saith unto Saul, 'Me did Jehovah send to anoint thee for king over His people, over Israel; and now, hearken to the voice of the words of Jehovah:
Samuel el fahk nu sel Saul, “Nga pa mwet se LEUM GOD el supwama in mosrwekomla tuh kom in tokosra lun mwet Israel. Inge, porongo ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk.
2 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, I have looked after that which Amalek did to Israel, that which he laid for him in the way in his going up out of Egypt.
El ac fah kai mwet Amalek ke sripen mwet matu lalos tuh aklokoalokye mwet Israel ke elos tuku liki facl Egypt.
3 Now, go, and thou hast smitten Amalek, and devoted all that it hath, and thou hast no pity on it, and hast put to death from man unto woman, from infant unto suckling, from ox unto sheep, from camel unto ass.'
Fahla ac mweuni mwet Amalek ac kunausla ma lalos nukewa. Nikmet filiya kutena ma. Uniya mwet nukewa: mukul, mutan, tulik srisrik, tulik fusr, oayapa cow, sheep, camel, ac donkey.”
4 And Saul summoneth the people, and inspecteth them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand [are] men of Judah.
Ouinge Saul el pangoneni mwet mweun lal ac oakalosla in acn Telem. Oasr mukul luofoko tausin sin mwet Israel ac mukul singoul tausin sin mwet Judah.
5 And Saul cometh in unto a city of Amalek, and layeth wait in a valley;
Na Saul ac mwet lal som nu ke siti lun mwet Amalek ac wikwik soano ke infacl paola soko.
6 and Saul saith unto the Kenite, 'Go, turn aside, go down from the midst of Amalek, lest I consume thee with it, and thou didst kindness with all the sons of Israel, in their going up out of Egypt;' and the Kenite turneth aside from the midst of Amalek.
El supwala kas in sensenkakin mwet Ken, mweyen mwet matu lalos tuh kulang nu sin mwet Israel ke elos tuku liki facl Egypt. El sapkin ouinge, “Kowos in som liki inmasrlon mwet Amalek, tuh nga in tia unikowosi ke nga ac mweuni mwet Amalek.” Ouinge, mwet Ken elos som liki inmasrlon mwet Amalek.
7 And Saul smiteth Amalek from Havilah — thy going in to Shur, which [is] on the front of Egypt,
Saul el kutangla mwet Amalek. El mweunelos, mutawauk in acn Havilah fahla nu Shur, su oan kutulap in acn Egypt.
8 and he catcheth Agag king of Amalek alive, and all the people he hath devoted by the mouth of the sword;
El sruokilya Agag, tokosra lun mwet Amalek, ke el srakna moul, ac el uniya mwet nukewa sayal.
9 and Saul hath pity — also the people — on Agag, and on the best of the flock, and of the herd, and of the seconds, and on the lambs, and on all that [is] good, and have not been willing to devote them; and all the work, despised and wasted — it they devoted.
Tusruktu Saul ac mwet lal elos tiana unilya Tokosra Agag. Elos tia pac uniya sheep ac cow wowo, oayapa cow fusr ac sheep fusr, ku kutena ma wo saya. Elos kunausla ma wangin sripa ac ma tia ku in sifil orekmakinyuk.
10 And the word of Jehovah is unto Samuel, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Samuel,
11 'I have repented that I caused Saul to reign for king, for he hath turned back from after Me, and My words he hath not performed;' and it is displeasing to Samuel, and he crieth unto Jehovah all the night.
“Nga auli lah nga tuh oru Saul el tokosra. El forla likiyu ac el tia akos ma sap luk.” Samuel el arulana kasrkusrak, ac el kwafe nu sin LEUM GOD ke fong nufon se.
12 And Samuel riseth early to meet Saul in the morning, and it is declared to Samuel, saying, 'Saul hath come in to Carmel, and lo, he is setting up to himself a monument, and goeth round, and passeth over, and goeth down to Gilgal.'
Toangna in len tok ah el som sokol Saul. El lohng mu Saul el som nu Carmel, acn se ma el tuh tulokunak sie mwe esmakin kacl sifacna, na tok el som nu Gilgal.
13 And Samuel cometh in unto Saul, and Saul saith to him, 'Blessed [art] thou of Jehovah; I have performed the word of Jehovah.'
Samuel el utyak nu yorol Saul, ac Saul el paingul ac fahk, “Samuel, LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoye kom! Nga akos na ma sap lun LEUM GOD.”
14 And Samuel saith, 'And what [is] the noise of this flock in mine ears — and the noise of the herd which I am hearing?'
Na Samuel el siyuk, “Na efu nga ku lohng pusren cow ac pusren sheep?”
15 And Saul saith, 'From Amalek they have brought them, because the people had pity on the best of the flock, and of the herd, in order to sacrifice to Jehovah thy God, and the remnant we have devoted.'
Saul el topuk ac fahk, “Ma mwet luk elos use yurin mwet Amalek me. Elos srela sheep wowo ac cow wowo tuh elos in kisakin nu sin LEUM GOD lom, ac funu ma nukewa saya, kut kunausla nufon.”
16 And Samuel saith unto Saul, 'Desist, and I declare to thee that which Jehovah hath spoken unto me to-night;' and he saith to him, 'Speak.'
Na Samuel el fahk, “Kolya ngan fahk nu sum ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik fong.” Ac Saul el fahk, “Fahkma nu sik.”
17 And Samuel saith, 'Art not thou, if thou [art] little in thine own eyes, head of the tribes of Israel? and Jehovah doth anoint thee for king over Israel,
Samuel el fahk, “Kom finne pusisel in nunak lom sifacna, tusruktu kom pa mwet kol lun sruf nukewa lun Israel. LEUM GOD El mosrwekomla tuh kom in tokosra lun Israel,
18 and Jehovah sendeth thee in the way, and saith, Go, and thou hast devoted the sinners, the Amalekite, and fought against them till they are consumed;
ac el supwekomla ac sapkin nu sum tuh kom in kunausla mwet koluk, mwet Amalek. El tuh fahk nu sum kom in mweunelos nwe ke na kom onelosla nufon.
19 and why hast thou not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah — and dost fly unto the spoil, and dost do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah?'
Na efu ku kom tia aksol? Efu kom ku oasroasr in eis ma wap ac oru ma in aktoasrye LEUM GOD?”
20 And Saul saith unto Samuel, 'Because — I have hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and I go in the way which Jehovah hath sent me, and bring in Agag king of Amalek, and Amalek I have devoted;
Ac Saul el fahk, “Nga akos LEUM GOD. Nga som oana El supweyula, ac nga usalu Tokosra Agag ac onela mwet Amalek nufon.
21 and the people taketh of the spoil of the flock and herd, the first part of the devoted thing, for sacrifice to Jehovah thy God in Gilgal.'
Tusruktu mwet luk elos tia onela sheep ac cow wowo ma elos sruokya, a elos use ma inge nu Gilgal in orek mwe kisa nu sin LEUM GOD lom.”
22 And Samuel saith, 'Hath Jehovah had delight in burnt-offerings and sacrifices as [in] hearkening to the voice of Jehovah? lo, hearkening than sacrifice is better; to give attention than fat of rams;
Na Samuel el fahk, “Pia kac ma God El lungse uh — akosten, ku mwe sang ac mwe kisa? Liye, akos wo liki mwe kisa, ac porongo wo liki sheep fact.
23 for a sin of divination [is] rebellion, and iniquity and teraphim [is] stubbornness; because thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, He also doth reject thee from [being] king.'
Orekma in lain God, koluk oana inutnut; ac inse fulat koluk oana alu nu ke ma sruloala. Ke sripen kom lain ma sap lun LEUM GOD, El oayapa lain kom, ac sisla wal in tokosra liki kom.”
24 And Saul saith unto Samuel, 'I have sinned, for I passed over the command of Jehovah, and thy words; because I have feared the people, I also hearken to their voice;
Ac Saul el fahk, “Pwaye, nga orekma koluk. Nga tia akos ma sap lun LEUM GOD, oayapa kas lom. Nga sangeng sin mwet luk inge ac nga wi na lungse lalos.
25 and now, bear, I pray thee, with my sin, and turn back with me, and I bow myself to Jehovah.'
Tusruktu inge, nga kwafe sum, nunak munas nu sik ke ma koluk luk, ac wiyu folokla, tuh nga fah ku in alu nu sin LEUM GOD.”
26 And Samuel saith unto Saul, 'I do not turn back with thee; for thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth reject thee from being king over Israel.'
Samuel el topuk ac fahk, “Nga ac fah tia wi kom folok. Kom tuh pilesru ma sap lun LEUM GOD, na El oayapa pilesrekom ac siskomla tuh kom in tia tokosra lun mwet Israel.”
27 And Samuel turneth round to go, and he layeth hold on the skirt of his upper robe — and it is rent!
Ke Samuel el forla in folok, Saul el sruokya nuknuk lal Samuel ah twe mihsalik.
28 And Samuel saith unto him, 'Jehovah hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee to-day, and given it to thy neighbour who is better than thou;
Na Samuel el fahk nu sel Saul, “LEUM GOD El seya tokosrai lun Israel liki kom misenge, ac sang nu sin sie mwet su wo liki kom.
29 and also, the Pre-eminence of Israel doth not lie nor repent, for He [is] not a man to be penitent.'
Tuh God Fulat lun Israel El tia kikiap ku ekyek nunak lal. El tia mwet — El tia ikikil nunak lal uh.”
30 And he saith, 'I have sinned; now, honour me, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn back with me; and I have bowed myself to Jehovah thy God.'
Saul el fahk, “Pwaye nga orekma koluk, tusruktu nga siyuk kom in nunak munas sunakinyu ye mutun mwet kol lun mwet luk ac mwet Israel nukewa. Wiyu folok tuh nga fah ku in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lom.”
31 And Samuel turneth back after Saul, and Saul boweth himself to Jehovah;
Ouinge Samuel el welul folokla, ac Saul el alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
32 and Samuel saith, 'Bring ye nigh unto me Agag king of Amalek,' and Agag cometh unto him daintily, and Agag saith, 'Surely the bitterness of death hath turned aside.'
Samuel el fahk, “Usalu Tokosra Agag nu yuruk.” Na Tokosra Agag el fahsr nu yorol ac el rarrar ke sangeng. In nunak lal sifacna el mu, “Pwaye lah ma na mwen se pa misa uh!”
33 And Samuel saith, 'As thy sword bereaved women — so is thy mother bereaved above women;' and Samuel heweth Agag in pieces before Jehovah in Gilgal.
Ac Samuel el fahk, “Oana ke cutlass nutum an oru nina puspis in wanginla tulik natu, ouinge nina kiom sifacna ac fah wanginla pac tulik natul.” Ac Samuel el pakpakilya Tokosra Agag nu ke ip pukanten ye mutun loang uh in Gilgal.
34 And Samuel goeth to Ramath, and Saul hath gone unto his house — to Gibeah of Saul.
Na Samuel el som nu Ramah, ac Tokosra Saul el folok nu yen sel in acn Gibeah.
35 And Samuel hath not added to see Saul till the day of his death, for Samuel mourned for Saul, and Jehovah repented that He had caused Saul to reign over Israel.
In lusenna moul lal Samuel tukun pacl se ingela, el tia sifil liyal Tokosra Saul, tusruktu el arulana asor kacl. LEUM GOD El auli lah El tuh oru Saul el tokosra fin Israel.
