1 Samuel 6
1 And the ark of Jehovah is in the field of the Philistines seven months,
Nígbà tí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa sì ti wà ní agbègbè Filistini fún oṣù méje,
2 and the Philistines call for priests and for diviners, saying, 'What do we do to the ark of Jehovah? let us know wherewith we send it to its place?'
àwọn ará Filistini pe àwọn àlùfáà, àti àwọn alásọtẹ́lẹ̀, wọ́n sì sọ pé, “Kí ni kí a ṣe pẹ̀lú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa? Sọ fún wa bí àwa yóò ti dá a padà sí ààyè rẹ̀.”
3 And they say, 'If ye are sending away the ark of the God of Israel, ye do not send it away empty; for ye do certainly send back to Him a guilt-offering; then ye are healed, and it hath been known to you why His hand doth not turn aside from you.'
Wọ́n dáhùn wí pé, “Tí ẹ bá dá àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run ti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli padà, ẹ má ṣe dá a padà ní òfìfo, ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, ẹ fún un ní ẹbọ ẹ̀bi. Nígbà náà ni a ó mú un yín láradá, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ ìdí tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ kò fi tí ì kúrò lára yín.”
4 And they say, 'What [is] the guilt-offering which we send back to Him?' and they say, 'The number of the princes of the Philistines — five golden emerods, and five golden mice — for one plague [is] to you all, and to your princes,
Àwọn ará Filistini béèrè pé, “Irú ẹbọ ẹ̀bi wo ni kí a fi fún un?” Wọ́n dáhùn, “Wúrà oníkókó márùn-ún àti eku ẹ̀lírí wúrà márùn-ún, gẹ́gẹ́ bí iye àwọn aláṣẹ Filistini, nítorí àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn kan náà ni ó kọlù yín àti olórí yín.
5 and ye have made images of your emerods, and images of your mice that are corrupting the land, and have given honour to the God of Israel; it may be He doth lighten His hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land;
Mọ àwòrán ààrùn oníkókó àti ti eku ẹ̀lírí yin tí ó ń ba orílẹ̀-èdè náà jẹ́ kí o sì bu ọlá fún Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Bóyá yóò gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ kúrò lára yín, lára ọlọ́run yín àti lára ilẹ̀ yín.
6 and why do ye harden your heart as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their heart? do they not — when He hath rolled Himself upon them — send them away, and they go?
Kí ni ó dé tí ẹ fi ń sé ọkàn yín le gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ará Ejibiti àti Farao ti ṣe? Nígbà tí ó fi ọwọ́ líle mú wọn, ṣé wọn kò rán àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jáde kí wọn kí ó lè lọ ní ọ̀nà wọn?
7 'And now, take and make one new cart, and two suckling kine, on which a yoke hath not gone up, and ye have bound the kine in the cart, and caused their young ones to turn back from after them to the house,
“Nísinsin yìí ẹ pèsè kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù tuntun sílẹ̀, pẹ̀lú màlúù méjì tí ó ti fi ọmú fún ọmọ, èyí tí a kò tí ì gba àjàgà sí ọrùn rí, kí ẹ sì so ó mọ́ kẹ̀kẹ́ náà, kí ẹ sì mú ọmọ wọn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn wá sí ilé láti so.
8 and ye have taken the ark of Jehovah, and put it on the cart, and the vessels of gold which ye have returned to Him — a guilt-offering — ye put in a coffer on its side, and have sent it away, and it hath gone;
Kí ẹ sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa sí orí kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù àti kí ẹ̀yin sì kó àwọn ohun èlò wúrà tí ẹ̀yin fi fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti ẹbọ ẹ̀bi sí inú àpótí ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀, kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sì rán an lọ,
9 and ye have seen, if the way of its own border it goeth up to Beth-Shemesh — He hath done to us this great evil; and if not, then we have known that His hand hath not come against us; an accident it hath been to us.'
ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹ sì máa ṣọ́ ọ. Tí ó bá ń lọ sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀, ìlú rẹ̀, níhà Beti-Ṣemeṣi. Nígbà náà ni Olúwa mú àjálù ńlá yìí bá wa. Ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ nígbà náà ni a mọ̀ pé kì í ṣe ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ni ó kọlù wá, ṣùgbọ́n ó wá bẹ́ẹ̀ ni.”
10 And the men do so, and take two suckling kine, and bind them in the cart, and their young ones they have shut up in the house;
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ṣe èyí. Wọ́n mú abo màlúù méjì, tí ń fi ọmú fún ọmọ, wọn mọ́ ara, wọ́n sì dè é ni ilé kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù, wọn sì so àwọn ọmọ wọn mọ́lẹ̀ ni ilé.
11 and they place the ark of Jehovah upon the cart, and the coffer, and the golden mice, and the images of their emerods.
Wọ́n gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lé orí kẹ̀kẹ́ ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀ ni àpótí tí eku ẹ̀lírí wúrà àti àwòrán ààrùn oníkókó wà níbẹ̀.
12 And the kine go straight in the way, on the way to Beth-Shemesh, in one highway they have gone, going and lowing, and have not turned aside right or left; and the princes of the Philistines are going after them unto the border of Beth-Shemesh.
Nígbà náà; àwọn màlúù lọ tààrà sí ìhà Beti-Ṣemeṣi, wọ́n ń lọ tààrà, wọ́n sì ń dún bí wọ́n ti ń lọ. Wọn kò yà sí ọ̀tún tàbí yà sí òsì. Àwọn aláṣẹ Filistini tẹ̀lé wọn títí dé ibodè Beti-Ṣemeṣi.
13 And the Beth-Shemeshites are reaping their wheat-harvest in the valley, and they lift up their eyes, and see the ark, and rejoice to see [it].
Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ará Beti-Ṣemeṣi ń kórè jéró wọn ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, nígbà tí wọ́n wo òkè tí wọ́n sì rí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, wọ́n yọ̀ níwájú rẹ̀.
14 And the cart hath come in unto the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite, and standeth there, and there [is] a great stone, and they cleave the wood of the cart, and the kine they have caused to ascend — a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
Kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù wá sí pápá Joṣua ti Beti-Ṣemeṣi, níbẹ̀ ni ó ti dúró ní ẹ̀bá àpáta ńlá kan. Àwọn ènìyàn gé igi ara kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù sí wẹ́wẹ́ wọ́n sì fi àwọn màlúù náà rú ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa.
15 And the Levites have taken down the ark of Jehovah, and the coffer which [is] with it, in which [are] the vessels of gold, and place [them] on the great stone; and the men of Beth-Shemesh have caused to ascend burnt-offerings and sacrifice sacrifices in that day to Jehovah;
Àwọn ará Lefi gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa wá sí ìsàlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àpótí tí ohun èlò wúrà wà níbẹ̀, wọ́n sì gbé wọn ka orí àpáta ńlá náà. Ní ọjọ́ náà, àwọn ará Beti-Ṣemeṣi rú ẹbọ sísun, wọ́n sì ṣe ìrúbọ sí Olúwa.
16 and the five princes of the Philistines have seen [it], and turn back [to] Ekron, on that day.
Àwọn aláṣẹ Filistini márààrún rí gbogbo èyí, wọ́n sì padà ní ọjọ́ náà sí Ekroni.
17 And these [are] the golden emerods which the Philistines have sent back — a guilt-offering to Jehovah: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
Èyí ni kókó wúrà tí àwọn Filistini fún Olúwa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ ẹ̀bi ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan fún Aṣdodu, ọ̀kan ti Gasa, ọ̀kan ti Aṣkeloni, ọ̀kan ti Gati, ọ̀kan ti Ekroni.
18 and the golden mice — the number of all the cities of the Philistines — for the five princes, from the fenced city even unto the hamlet of the villages, even unto the great meadow on which they placed the ark of Jehovah — [are] unto this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-Shemeshite.
Wúrà eku ẹ̀lírí jẹ́ iye ìlú tí àwọn aláṣẹ Filistini márààrún ti wá, ìlú olódi pẹ̀lú ìletò wọn. Àpáta ńlá náà, lórí èyí tí a gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lé jẹ́ ẹ̀rí títí di òní ní oko Joṣua ará Beti-Ṣemeṣi.
19 And He smiteth among the men of Beth-Shemesh, for they looked into the ark of Jehovah, yea, He smiteth among the people seventy men — fifty chief men; and the people mourn, because Jehovah smote among the people — a great smiting.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kọlu díẹ̀ lára àwọn ọkùnrin Beti-Ṣemeṣi, ó pa àádọ́rin wọn, nítorí wọ́n ti wo inú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa. Àwọn ènìyàn ṣọ̀fọ̀ nítorí àjálù ńlá tí Olúwa fi bá ọ̀pọ̀ wọn jà.
20 And the men of Beth-Shemesh say, 'Who is able to stand before Jehovah, this holy God? and unto whom doth He go up from us?'
Àwọn ọkùnrin ará Beti-Ṣemeṣi béèrè pé, “Ta ni ó le è dúró ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run mímọ́ yìí? Ọ̀dọ̀ ta ni àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa yóò gbà gòkè lọ láti ibí yìí?”
21 And they send messengers unto the inhabitants of Kirjath-Jearim, saying, 'The Philistines have sent back the ark of Jehovah; come down, take it up unto you.'
Nígbà náà, wọ́n rán àwọn ìránṣẹ́ sí àwọn ènìyàn tí Kiriati-Jearimu wí pé, “Àwọn Filistini ti dá àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa padà. Ẹ sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, kí ẹ gbé e gòkè lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ yín.”
