1 Samuel 5
1 And the Philistines have taken the ark of God, and bring it in 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 and the Philistines take the ark of God and bring it into the house of Dagon, and set it near 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 the Ashdodites rise early on the morrow, and lo, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the ark of Jehovah; and they take Dagon, and put it back to its place.
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 they rise early in the morning on the morrow, and lo, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the ark of Jehovah, and the head of Dagon, and the two palms of its hands are cut off at the threshold, only the fishy part hath been 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 the priests of Dagon, and all those coming into the house of Dagon, tread not on the threshold of Dagon, in Ashdod, till 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 And the hand of Jehovah is heavy on the Ashdodites, and He maketh them desolate, and smiteth them with emerods, 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 the men of Ashdod see that [it is] so, and have said, 'The ark of the God of Israel doth not abide with us, for hard hath been His hand 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 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines unto them, and say, 'What do we do to the ark of the God of Israel?' and they say, 'To Gath let the ark of the God of Israel be brought round;' and they bring round the ark of the God of Israel;
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 cometh to pass after they have brought it round, that the hand of Jehovah is against the city — a very great destruction; and He smiteth the men of the city, from small even unto great; and break forth on them do emerods.
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 And they send the ark of God to Ekron, and it cometh to pass, at the coming in of the ark of God to Ekron, that the Ekronites cry out, saying, 'They have brought round unto us the ark of the God of Israel, to put us to death — 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 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines, and say, 'Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and it turneth back to its place, and it doth not put us to death — and our people;' for there hath been a deadly destruction throughout all the city, very heavy hath the hand of God been 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 who have not died have been smitten with emerods, and the cry of the city goeth up into the heavens.
Nanilofeñe fibokalirañe nitsovovòke ondaty tsy nihomakeo; vaho nionjomb’ an-dikeram-b’eo ty fitoreova’ i rovay.
