I Samuel 13
1 [Tallo pulo] ti tawen ni Saul idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay; idi nagturay isuna iti [uppat a pulo] a tawen iti Israel,
Saul was ruling for less than a year, when he ruled during year two over Israel,
2 nangpili isuna iti tallo ribu a lallaki ti Israel. Dua ribu ti kaduana idiay Mikmas ken iti turod a pagilian ti Betel, idinto a sangaribu ti kadua ni Jonatan iti Gabaa idiay Benjamin. Pinagawidna dagiti nabatbati kadagiti soldado, tunggal maysa iti toldana.
that Saul chose for himself three thousand men of Israel, of which two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, and one thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. And the rest of the people he sent away, each to his own home.
3 Pinarmek ni Jonatan ti agbanbantay a buyot dagiti Filisteo nga adda idiay Geba ket nangngeg daytoy dagiti Filisteo. Ket pinaguni ni Saul ti tangguyob iti entero a daga, kunana, “Dumngeg koma dagiti Hebreo.”
Now Jonathan struck the garrison of the Philistines that was at Gibeah, and the Philistines heard of it. Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear."
4 Nangngeg ti entero nga Israel a pinarmek ni Saul ti agbanbantay a buyot dagiti Filisteo, ken kasta met a nagbalin ti Israel a nabangsit kadagiti Filisteo. Ket napaayaban dagiti soldado tapno tumiponda kenni Saul idiay Gilgal.
All Israel heard that Saul had struck the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become repulsive to the Philistines. So the people were called out to join Saul at Gilgal.
5 Naguummong dagiti Filisteo tapno makigubat iti Israel: Tallopulo a ribu a karwahe, innem a ribu a lallaki a mangiturturong kadagiti karwahe, ken adu a buybuyot a kas kadagiti darat iti igid ti baybay ti bilangda. Simmang-atda ken nagkampoda idiay Mikmas, a daya ti Bet-aben.
The Philistines assembled themselves together to fight with Israel, and brought up against Israel three thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude: and they came up, and camped in Michmash, eastward of Beth Aven.
6 Idi nakita dagiti lallaki ti Israel nga agpeggadda - ta mariribukan dagiti tattao, naglemmeng dagiti tattao kadagiti rukib, kadagiti kasiitan, kadagiti dadakkel a bato, kadagiti bubon, ken kadagiti abut.
When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble (for the people were in a difficult situation), then the people hid themselves in caves and thickets, among the rocks, and in pits and cisterns.
7 Dagiti dadduma kadagiti Hebreo ket napan iti Jordan nga agturong iti daga ti Gad ken Galaad. Ngem adda pay laeng ni Saul idiay Gilgal, ket agpigpigerger a simmurot kenkuana dagiti amin a tattao.
Now some of the Hebrews had gone over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but as for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
8 Naguray isuna iti pito nga aldaw, ti tiempo nga inkeddeng ni Samuel. Ngem saan a dimteng ni Samuel idiay Gilgal, ket nagwawara dagiti tattao manipud kenni Saul.
And he stayed seven days, according to the time that Samuel had said. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and the people began to abandon him.
9 Kinuna ni Saul, “Iyegyo kaniak ti daton a mapuoran ken dagiti daton a pakikappia.” Ket indatonna ti daton a mapuoran.
Saul said, "Bring here the burnt offering to me, and the peace offerings." He offered the burnt offering.
10 Apaman a nalpasna nga indaton ti daton a mapuoran, simmangpet ni Samuel. Rimmuar ni Saul tapno sabatenna ken kablaawanna isuna.
It came to pass that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, look, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.
11 Ket kinuna ni Samuel, “Ania ti inaramidmo?” Simmungbat ni Saul, “Idi nakitak a pagpapanawandak dagiti tattao, ken saanka a dimteng iti naikeddeng a tiempo, ken naguummong dagiti Filisteo idiay Mikmas,
Samuel said, "What have you done?" Saul said, "Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines assembled themselves together at Michmash;
12 kinunak, 'Ita, sumalog dagiti Filisteo a maibusor kaniak idiay Gilgal, ket saanak pay nagkiddaw iti tulong ni Yahweh.' Isu nga impilitko nga idaton ti daton a mapuoran.”
therefore I said, 'Now the Philistines will come down on me to Gilgal, and I haven't entreated the favor of the LORD.' I forced myself therefore, and offered the burnt offering."
13 Ket kinuna ni Samuel kenni Saul, “Nagtignayka a simamaag. Saanmo a sinalimetmetan ti bilin nga inted kenka ni Yahweh a Diosmo. Iti kasta pinatalged koma ni Yahweh ti panagturaymo iti Israel iti agnanayon.
Samuel said to Saul, "You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which he commanded you; for now the LORD would have established your kingdom on Israel forever.
14 Ngem ita, saanto nga agtuloy ti panagturaymo. Nangbirok ni Yahweh iti tao a kas maiyannurot iti pusona, ket dinutokan isuna ni Yahweh nga agbalin a prinsipe kadagiti tattaona, gapu ta saanka a nagtulnog iti imbilinna kenka.”
But now your kingdom shall not continue. The LORD has sought for himself a man after his own heart, and the LORD has appointed him to be prince over his people, because you have not kept that which the LORD commanded you."
15 Isu a nagrubbuat ni Samuel ket simmang-at idiay Geba iti Benjamin manipud Gilgal. Ket binilang ni Saul dagiti tattao nga adda sadiay a kaduana, agarup innem a gasut a lallaki.
And Samuel arose and departed from Gilgal, and the rest of the people went up after Saul to meet him after the men of war, when they had come up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.
16 Nagtalinaed ni Saul, ni Jonatan nga anakna, ken dagiti tattao nga adda sadiay a kaduada iti Geba idiay Benjamin. Ngem nagkampo dagiti Filisteo idiay Mikmas.
Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin: but the Philistines camped in Michmash.
17 Naggapu dagiti sumasamsam manipud iti kampo dagiti Filisteo iti tallo a bunggoy. Ti maysa a bunggoy ket nagturong iti Opra, iti daga ti Sual.
The spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual;
18 Ti maysa met a bungoy ket nagturong iti Bet-horon, ken ti maysa pay a bunggoy ket nagturong iti beddeng a matannawagan ti tanap ti Zeboim nga agturong iti let-ang.
and another company turned the way to Beth Horon; and another company turned toward the border that overlooks the valley of Zeboim.
19 Awan ti masarakan a pumapanday iti entero nga Israel, gapu ta kinuna dagiti Filisteo, “Amangan no mangaramid dagiti Hebreo kadagiti kampilan wenno gayangda.”
Now there was no blacksmith found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines had said, "Otherwise the Hebrews will make swords or spears."
20 Ngem masansan a sumalog dagiti amin a lallaki ti Israel kadagiti Filisteo, tapno ipaasada ti tunggal sudsod ti aradoda, ti gabyunda, ti wasayda, ken ti kumpayda.
But all Israel would go down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, mattock, axe, and sickle;
21 Ti bayad para kadagiti sudsod ti arado ken kadagiti gabyun ket mamindua iti apagkatlo iti maysa a siklo, ken ti para iti panangasa kadagiti wasay ken pananglinteg kadagiti pagkawit a sarukod ket apagkatlo iti maysa a siklo
and the charge was one payim for the plowshares and for the mattocks, and three shekels for picks and axes and to set the goads.
22 Isu nga iti aldaw ti gubat, awan ti makita a kampilan wenno gayang kadagiti ima iti siasinoman kadagiti soldado a kadua ni Saul ken ni Jonatan: ni Saul ken ni Jonatan nga annakna laeng ti addaan kadagitoy.
So on the day of the battle of Michmash there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan; but Saul and his son Jonathan had them.
23 Adda kampo dagiti Filisteo iti dalan nga agturong iti Mikmas.
The garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
