1 Ihe E Mere 10
1 Nʼoge a ndị Filistia lụsoro ndị Izrel agha, ndị Izrel si nʼihu ha gbaa ọsọ, ma ọtụtụ nʼime ha nwụrụ nʼugwu Gilboa.
And the Philistines have fought with Israel, and the men of Israel flee from the face of the Philistines, and fall wounded in Mount Gilboa,
2 Ndị Filistia ji ike chụso Sọl na ụmụ ya. Ha gburu ụmụ ya ndị ikom, Jonatan, Abinadab na Malkishua.
and the Philistines pursue after Saul, and after his sons, and the Philistines strike Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-Shua, sons of Saul.
3 Agha ahụ siri ike nke ukwuu megide Sọl, mgbe ndị na-agba ụta chụkwutere ya ha merụrụ ya ahụ.
And the battle [is] heavy on Saul, and those shooting with the bow find him, and he is wounded by those shooting,
4 Sọl gwara onye na-ebu ngwa agha ya, sị, “Mịpụta mma agha gị, were ya magbuo m ka ndị a a na-ebighị ugwu ghara ịbịa jiri m mee ihe egwuregwu.” Ma onye na-ebu ngwa agha ya ekweghị, nʼihi ọnọdụ oke egwu. Nʼihi ya, Sọl were mma agha nke ya, dakwasị nʼelu ya.
and Saul says to the bearer of his weapons, “Draw your sword and pierce me with it, lest these uncircumcised come and have abused me.” And the bearer of his weapons has not been willing, for he fears exceedingly, and Saul takes the sword, and falls on it;
5 Mgbe onye na-ebu ihe agha Sọl hụrụ na ọ nwụọla, ya onwe ya dakwasịkwara nʼelu mma agha nke ya, nwụọkwa.
and the bearer of his weapons sees that Saul [is] dead, and falls, he also, on the sword, and dies;
6 Ya mere, Sọl na ụmụ ya ndị ikom atọ nwụrụ, ndị niile si nʼụlọ ya nwụkwara nʼotu mgbe ahụ.
and Saul dies, and his three sons, and all his house—they died together.
7 Mgbe ndị Izrel niile nọ na ndagwurugwu hụrụ na ndị agha agbaala ọsọ, na Sọl na ụmụ ya ndị ikom anwụọla, ha hapụrụ obodo ha niile gbapụ ọsọ. Ndị Filistia bịakwara bichie nʼime ha.
And all the men of Israel who [are] in the valley see that they have fled and that Saul and his sons have died, and they forsake their cities and flee, and the Philistines come and dwell in them.
8 Nʼechi ya, mgbe ndị Filistia bịara iyipụ ndị nwụrụ anwụ ihe ha ga-achịkọrọ, ha hụrụ ozu Sọl na nke ụmụ ya ndị ikom ka ha tọgbọ nʼugwu Gilboa.
And it comes to pass, on the next day, that the Philistines come to strip the wounded, and find Saul and his sons fallen in Mount Gilboa,
9 Ha yipụrụ ya ihe niile oyi, buru isi ya na ihe agha ya, zipụkwa ndị ozi gara nʼala ndị Filistia niile ikwusa akụkọ ihe mere nye ndị ha niile na arụsị ha niile.
and strip him, and carry away his head and his weapons, and send [them] into the land of the surrounding Philistines to proclaim tidings [to] their idols and the people;
10 Ha tinyere ihe agha ya nʼụlọ chi ha, kwụbakwa okpokoro isi ya nʼụlọ Dagọn.
and they put his weapons in the house of their gods, and have fixed his skull in the house of Dagon.
11 Mgbe ndị Jebesh Gilead niile nụrụ ihe ndị Filistia mere Sọl,
And all Jabesh-Gilead hears of all that the Philistines have done to Saul,
12 ndị ikom ha niile bụ ndị dimkpa, biliri gaa buru ozu Sọl na ụmụ ya, bulata ha na Jebesh. Ha liri ọkpụkpụ ha nʼokpuru osisi ukwu dị na Jebesh, buo ọnụ ụbọchị asaa.
and all the men of valor rise and carry away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and bring them to Jabesh, and bury their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fast seven days.
13 Sọl nwụrụ nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ya nye Onyenwe anyị, o debeghị okwu Onyenwe anyị, karịsịa, ọ gara na nke onye na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase, nʼihi ịjụta ya ase,
And Saul dies because of his trespass that he trespassed against YHWH, against the word of YHWH that he did not keep, and also for asking to inquire of a familiar spirit;
14 ma ọ jụghị ase site nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ nke a mere Onyenwe anyị ji gbuo ya, were alaeze ya nyefee Devid nwa Jesi nʼaka.
and he did not inquire of YHWH, and He puts him to death, and turns around the kingdom to David son of Jesse.
