I Oihanaalii 10
1 A KAUA mai la ko Pilisetia i ka Iseraela; auhee ae la na kanaka o ka Iseraela imua o ko Pilisetia, a haule iho la lakou me ka pepehiia ma ka mauna o Gileboa.
AmaFilistiya alwa lo-Israyeli; abako-Israyeli babaleka, njalo abanengi bafela eNtabeni yase Gilibhowa.
2 A hahai ikaika mai la ko Pilisetia mahope o Saula, a mahope o kana mau keiki; a pepehi iho la ko Pilisetia ia Ionatana, a ia Abitiadaba, a ia Malekisua, na keiki a Saula.
AmaFilistiya axotshana kanzima loSawuli kanye lamadodana akhe, abulala amadodana akhe uJonathani, lo-Abhinadabi kanye loMalikhi-Shuwa.
3 A ikaika mai la ke kaua ana ia Saula, a loaa oia i na kanaka pana pua, a ua ku oia i ka poe pana pua.
Impi yatshisa macele wonke kuSawuli, njalo kwathi abatshoki bemitshoko sebemxhumile, bamlimaza.
4 Alaila, i aku la o Saula i ke kanaka hali i kana mea kaua, E unuhi oe i kau pahikaua, a e hou mai ia'u me ia, o hele mai keia poe okipoepoe ole, a e hoomaewaewa mai ia'u. Aka, aole i makemake ka mea hali i kana mea kaua; no ka mea, ua makau loa ia. Nolaila, lalau aku la o Saula i ka pahikaua, a haule iho la iluna.
USawuli wathi kumthwali wezikhali zakhe, “Hwatsha inkemba yakho ungigwaze, hlezi abantu laba abangasokanga bafike bangigwaze bangenze ihlazo.” Kodwa umphathi wezikhali zakhe wesaba, akaze akwenza lokho, ngakho uSawuli wathatha inkemba yakhe waziwisela phezu kwayo.
5 A ike iho la ka mea hali i kana mea kaua, ua make o Saula, haule iho la hoi oia maluna o ka pahikaua, a make iho la.
Kwathi umphathi wezikhali ebona ukuthi uSawuli wayesefile, laye waziwisela phezu kwenkemba yakhe, wafa.
6 Pela i make ai o Saula, me kana mau keikikane ekolu, a o kona poe ohua ua pau pu i ka make.
Ngakho uSawuli lamadodana akhe amathathu bafa, labo bonke abendlu yakhe bafa ndawonye.
7 A ike ae la na kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, ma ke awawa, hee aku la lakou; a ua make hoi o Saula a me kana mau keikikane, alaila haalele lakou i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, a holo aku la; a hele mai la ko Pilisetia a noho iho la malaila.
Kwathi bonke abako-Israyeli ababesesigodini bebona ukuthi ibutho lalibalekile lokuthi uSawuli kanye lamadodana akhe basebefile, batshiya imizi yabo babaleka. AmaFilistiya afika ahlala kuyo.
8 A ia la ae, a hele mai la ko Pilisetia e hao i ka poe make, loaa iho la ia lakou o Saula a me kana mau keiki i haule ma ka mauna o Gileboa.
Ngelanga elalandelayo, amaFilistiya esefikile ukuba akhuthuze abafileyo, afica uSawuli lamadodana akhe befile eNtabeni yase Gilibhowa.
9 A pau ko lakou hao ana ia ia, lawe ae la lakou i kona poo, a me kana mau mea kaua, hoouna aku la lakou ma ka aina o ko Pilisetia a puni, e hai aku i ko lakou mau kii, a i na kanaka.
Bamkhuthuza baze bamquma ikhanda lakhe balithatha kanye lezikhali zakhe, basebethuma izithunywa kulolonke ilizwe lamaFilistiya ukuthi zimemezele lindaba ezithombeni zabo lebantwini bakibo.
10 A waiho iho la lakou i kana mau mea kaua iloko o ka hale o ko lakou mau akua, a hoopaa aku la i kona poo ma ka heiau o Dagona.
Abeka izikhali zakhe ethempelini labonkulunkulu babo kwathi ikhanda lakhe balibeka ethempelini likaDagoni.
11 A lohe ae la ko Iabesa gileada a pau i na mea a pau a ko Pilisetia i hana'i ia Saula,
Abantu bonke baseJabheshi Giliyadi sebezwile ngokwakwenziwe ngamaFilistiya kuSawuli,
12 Ku ae la lakou, o ka poe kanaka koa a pau, a lawe aku la i ke kino o Saula, a me na kino o na keiki ana, a hali mai la i Iabesa, a kanu iho la i ko lakou mau iwi malalo o ka laau oka, aia ma labesa, a hookeai lakou i na la ehiku.
wonke amaqhawe alezibindi ahamba ayathatha isidumbu sikaSawuli lezamadodana akhe aya lazo eJabheshi. Basebengcwaba amathambo abo ngaphansi kwesihlahla esikhulu eJabheshi, bazila insuku eziyisikhombisa.
13 Pela o Saula i make ai no kona hala, i ka mea ana i hoohala ai ia Iehova, i ku e i ka olelo a Iehova ana i malama ole ai, a no ka imi ana i uhane ino, e ninau aku;
USawuli wafa ngoba wayengathembekanga kuThixo; kaligcinanga ilizwi likaThixo wakhe waze wayadinga ukuqondiswa yizangoma,
14 A ninau ole aku oia ia Iehova; nolaila, pepehi iho la oia ia ia, a hoohuli ae la i ke aupuni no Davida ke keiki a Iese.
esikhundleni sokukhuleka kuThixo. Ngakho uThixo wamenza wafa wathatha ubukhosi wabunika uDavida indodana kaJese.
