Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ʻomi ia mei Epenisa ki ʻAsitoti.
2 yi woƒe mawu Dagon, ƒe gbedoxɔ me le Asdod eye wodae ɖe Dagon gbɔ.
ʻI he maʻu ʻe he kau Filisitia ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki he fale ʻo Takoni, ʻonau fokotuʻu ia ofi kia Takoni.
3 Esi ame aɖewo yi be yewoakpɔe ɖa le ŋdi la, wokpɔ be Dagon dze anyi eye wòtsyɔ mo anyi ɖe Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋkume! Wofɔe da ɖe eteƒe
Pea ʻi he tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi ʻae kakai ʻo ʻAsitoti, vakai, kuo tō fakafoʻohifo ʻa Takoni ki hono mata ki he kelekele ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha tapu ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻa nau hiki ʻa Takoni ʻo toe fokotuʻu ia ki hono potu.
4 ke esi ŋu gake la, egadzɔ nenema tututu: legba la gadze anyi ɖe Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ. Ke azɔ ya la, eƒe asiwo kple eƒe ta lã ɖa le eŋu eye wònɔ mɔnu. Ale legba la tsi anyi kponogo.
Pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he pongipongi ʻe taha, vakai, kuo tuʻulu ʻa Takoni mo hono mata ki he kelekele he ʻao ʻoe puha tapu ʻo Sihova; pea kuo motuua ʻae ʻulu ʻo Takoni, mo hono fasi ʻae nima fakatouʻosi pē ʻi he mata fale: naʻe toe pe kia Takoni ʻa hono foʻi sino pe.
5 Le esia ta, va se ɖe egbe la, Dagon nunɔlawo kple esubɔlawo megaɖoa afɔ Dagon ƒe kpui nu le Asdod o.
Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai lakalakavale ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻo Takoni, pe ha tokotaha ʻoku haʻu ki he fale ʻo Takoni, ki he matafale ʻo Takoni ʻi ʻAsitoti ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
6 Yehowa ƒe asi sẽ ɖe Asdodtɔwo kple kɔƒe siwo ƒo xlã wo la me tɔwo dzi, ehe gbegblẽ va wo dzii eye wòna ƒoƒoe vɔ̃ te wo.
Ka naʻe mamafa ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ki he kakai ʻo ʻAsitoti, ʻo ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ʻo teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mahaki kovi, ʻio, ʻa ʻAsitoti mo hono ngaahi potu.
7 Esi ameawo dze si nu si de asi dzɔdzɔ ɖe wo dzi la, wodo ɣli be, “Míagate ŋu ana Israel ƒe Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la naganɔ afi sia o, elabena eƒe asi sẽ ɖe míawo ŋutɔ kple míaƒe mawu Dagon siaa dzi.”
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAsitoti ʻoku pehē, naʻa nau lea, “ʻE ʻikai tuku ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli: he ʻoku tō mamahi hono nima kiate kitautolu, pea kia Takoni ko hotau ʻotua.”
8 Ale woyɔ takpekpe na Filistitɔwo ƒe dziɖulawo katã, eye wobia wo be, “Nu ka míawɔ kple Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Mitsɔ Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka yi ɖada ɖe Gat.” Ale woɖe Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka la ɖa.
Ko ia naʻa nau fekau ʻo tānaki kiate kinautolu ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻonau pehē, “Ko e hā te tau fai ki he puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ke haʻamo fano ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo ʻave ki Kati.” Pea naʻa nau haʻamo fano mei ai ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
9 Ke esi wotsɔe yi afi mae ko la Yehowa ƒe asi va Gat du la dzi, eye ŋɔdzi kple dzodzonyanya lé ameawo. Eƒo dua me nɔlawo, ɖeviawo kple tsitsiawo siaa kple ƒoƒoe.
Pea naʻe pehē, hili ʻenau haʻamo fano ia, naʻe hoko mālohi ʻae nima ʻo Sihova ki he kolo ʻi he fakaʻauha lahi: pea ne taaʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻoe kolo, ʻae siʻi mo e lahi, pea naʻa nau mahaki kovi ʻi honau potu fufū.
10 Ale wotsɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la ɖo ta Ekron. Ke esi Ekrontɔwo kpɔe wògbɔna wo gbɔ ko la, wodo ɣli be, “Wotsɔ Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe nubablaɖaka la gbɔna afi sia be wòawu mí kple míaƒe amewo.”
Ko ia naʻa nau ʻave ai ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ki Ekiloni. Pea ʻi he hoko ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ki Ekiloni, naʻe tangi ʻae kakai Ekiloni, ʻo pehē, “Kuo nau ʻomi ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli kiate kitautolu, ke tāmateʻi kitautolu mo hotau kakai.”
11 Ale wogayɔ du atɔ̃awo kplɔlawo ƒo ƒui eye woɖe kuku na wo be woaɖo Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la ɖe eƒe dukɔ Israel ale be dua me tɔwo katã mava ku o. Dɔ la de asi amewo léle me ale vɔvɔ̃ ɖo ame sia ame le dua me.
Ko ia naʻa nau fekau ʻo tānaki ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kakai Filisitia, ʻonau pehē, “Fekau ke ʻave ʻae puha tapu ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, pea tuku ke ʻalu ia ki hono potu, telia naʻa ne tāmateʻi kitautolu mo hotau kakai:” he naʻe hoko ʻae fakaʻauha lahi ki he potu kotoa pē ʻoe kolo; naʻe mamafa ʻaupito ʻae nima ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi ai.
12 Ame siwo meku haɖe o la nɔ dɔ lém kutɔkutɔe, ale du la ƒe avifafa de dzi.
Pea ko e kau tangata naʻe ʻikai mate naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae mahaki kovi: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ki langi ʻae tangi ʻae kolo.
