1 Na rĩrĩ, Nahashu ũrĩa Mũamoni nĩambatire agĩthiĩ akĩrigiicĩria Jabeshi-Gileadi. Nao andũ othe a Jabeshi makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Gĩa na kĩrĩĩko kĩa ũiguano, na ithuĩ nĩ tũrĩgũtungatagĩra.”
And he went up Nahash the Ammonite and he encamped on Jabesh Gilead and they said all [the] men of Jabesh to Nahash make to us a covenant and we will serve you.
2 Nowe Nahashu ũcio Mũamoni agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũkũgĩa na kĩrĩĩko kĩa ũiguano na inyuĩ mwetĩkĩra ũndũ ũyũ ũmwe: atĩ ngũũre riitho rĩa ũrĩo rĩa o mũndũ wothe nĩgeetha nyararithie andũ a Isiraeli othe.”
And he said to them Nahash the Ammonite by this I will make to you by gouging out of you every eye of [the] right [side] and I will make it a reproach on all Israel.
3 Athuuri acio a Jabeshi makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũhe mĩthenya mũgwanja nĩguo tũtũme andũ Isiraeli guothe, kũngĩaga mũndũ wa gũtũhonokia-rĩ, nĩtũkwĩneana kũrĩ we.”
And they said to him [the] elders of Jabesh refrain to us seven days so let us send messengers in all [the] territory of Israel and if there not [is one who] delivers us and we will come out to you.
4 Rĩrĩa andũ acio matũmĩtwo maakinyire Gibea gwa Saũlũ na makĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ-rĩ, andũ othe makĩrĩra maanĩrĩire.
And they came the messengers Gibeah of Saul and they spoke the words in [the] ears of the people and they lifted up all the people voice their and they wept.
5 Na rĩrĩ, Saũlũ nĩgũcooka aacookaga oimĩte mĩgũnda-inĩ, oimĩte ndegwa ciake thuutha, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ andũ aya moonete ũũru ũrĩkũ? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma marĩre?” Nao magĩcookera ũhoro ũcio makĩmwĩra ũrĩa andũ a Jabeshi moigĩte.
And there! Saul [was] coming after the cattle from the field and he said Saul what? [is] to the people that they are weeping and they recounted to him [the] words of [the] men of Jabesh.
6 Rĩrĩa Saũlũ aiguire ũhoro ũcio, Roho wa Ngai agĩũka igũrũ rĩake na hinya mũno, nake agĩcinwo nĩ marakara.
And it rushed [the] spirit of God on Saul (just as heard he *Q(K)*) the words these and it burned anger his exceedingly.
7 Akĩnyiita ndegwa igĩrĩ, agĩcitinangia icunjĩ, na agĩtũma andũ Isiraeli guothe nacio, makĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo ndegwa cia mũndũ o wothe igwĩkwo ũrĩa ũtekũrũmĩrĩra Saũlũ na Samũeli.” Naguo guoya woimĩte harĩ Jehova ũkĩnyiita andũ acio, nao makiumagara ta maarĩ o mũndũ ũmwe.
And he took a pair of ox[en] and he cut in pieces it and he sent [them] in all [the] territory of Israel by [the] hand of the messengers - saying [the one] who not he [is] coming out after Saul and after Samuel thus it will be done to ox[en] his and it fell [the] dread of Yahweh on the people and they came out like a man one.
8 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Saũlũ aamatarire hamwe marĩ kũu Bezeki, andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ andũ ngiri magana matatũ na andũ a Juda ngiri mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
And he mustered them at Bezek and they were [the] people of Israel three hundred thousand and [the] man of Judah [was] thirty thousand.
9 Nao makĩĩra andũ acio maatũmĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Ĩrai andũ acio a Jabeshi-Gileadi atĩrĩ, ‘rũciũ ihinda rĩrĩa riũa rĩgaakorwo rĩhiũhĩte, nĩguo mũkaahonokio.’” Rĩrĩa andũ acio maatũmĩtwo mathiire makĩheana ũhoro ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Jabeshi-rĩ, andũ acio makĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno kĩnene.
And they said to the messengers who had come thus you will say! to [the] man of Jabesh Gilead tomorrow it will belong to you deliverance (like [the] heat of *Q(K)*) the sun and they went the messengers and they told to [the] men of Jabesh and they were glad.
10 Nao makĩĩra andũ a Amoni atĩrĩ, “Rũciũ nĩtũkeneana kũrĩ inyuĩ, na inyuĩ no mũtwĩke ũrĩa wothe mũkoona kwagĩrĩire.”
And they said [the] men of Jabesh tomorrow will we go out to you and you will do to us according to all the good in view your.
11 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Saũlũ akĩgayania ita rĩake akĩiga andũ ikundi ithatũ; na hĩndĩ ya ituanĩra rĩa arangĩri rĩa gũgĩkĩa makĩhithũka kambĩ-inĩ ya Aamoni makĩmooraga nginya rĩrĩa riũa rĩakoretwo rĩhiũhĩte. Arĩa maatigarire makĩharaganio. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtiarĩ andũ ao eerĩ maatigĩtwo me hamwe.
And it was from [the] next day and he made Saul the people three companies and they went in [the] midst of the camp in [the] watch of the morning and they struck down Ammon until [the] heat of the day and it was those [who] remained and they were scattered and not they remained among them two together.
12 Andũ acio magĩcooka makĩĩra Samũeli atĩrĩ, “Nĩ a acio mooragia atĩrĩ, ‘Saũlũ no atũthamakĩre?’ Tũrehere andũ acio tũmoorage.”
And it said the people to Samuel who? [is] the [one who] said Saul will he reign? over us deliver up the men so we may put to death them.
13 Nowe Saũlũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũũ ũkũũragwo ũmũthĩ, nĩ ũndũ mũthenya ũyũ Jehova nĩahonoketie Isiraeli.”
And he said Saul not he will be put to death anyone on the day this for this day he has done Yahweh deliverance in Israel.
14 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Samũeli agĩcooka akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Ũkai, tũthiĩ Giligali na tũrĩ kũu tũkindĩre ũthamaki.”
And he said Samuel to the people come so let us go Gilgal so we may renew there the kingship.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe magĩthiĩ Giligali na magĩkindĩra atĩ Saũlũ nĩwe mũthamaki marĩ mbere ya Jehova. Nao marĩ kũu makĩruta maruta ma ũiguano marĩ mbere ya Jehova, nake Saũlũ na andũ othe a Isiraeli magĩkũngũĩra na njĩra nene.
And they went all the people Gilgal and they made king there Saul before Yahweh in Gilgal and they sacrificed there sacrifices peace offerings before Yahweh and he rejoiced there Saul and all [the] men of Israel up to muchness.
