< I Samuel 4 >
1 Nakadanon ti sao ni Samuel iti entero nga Israel. Ita, mapan makigubat ti Israel kadagiti Filisteo. Nagkampoda idiay Ebenezer, ket nagkampo dagiti Filisteo idiay Afek.
And the word of Samuel became known to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ha'ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
2 Naglilinya dagiti Filisteo a makigubat iti Israel. Idi nagtultuloy ti gubat, inabak dagiti Filisteo ti Israel, a nakatayan ti agarup uppat a ribu a tattao iti paggugubatan.
And the Philistines put themselves in battle-array against Israel; and the battle became general, and Israel was smitten before the Philistines: and they slew on the battle-ground, in the field, about four thousand men.
3 Idi napan dagiti tattao iti kampo, kinuna dagiti panglakayen ti Israel, “Apay nga impaabaknatayo ni Yahweh kadagiti Filisteo ita nga aldaw? Iyegtayo ditoy ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh manipud Silo, tapno adda koma ditoy a kaduatayo, tapno pagtalinaidennatayo a natalged manipud iti kinapigsa dagiti kabusortayo.”
And when the people were come back into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath the Lord smitten us this day before the Philistines? Let us bring over to us out of Shiloh the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that it may come in the midst of us, and deliver us out of the hand of our enemies.
4 Isu a nangibaon dagiti tattao kadagiti lallaki idiay Silo; manipud sadiay, binaklayda ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh a mannakabalin-amin, a nakatugaw iti ngatoen dagiti kerubim. Adda sadiay dagiti dua nga annak ni Eli, da Ofni ken Finees, agraman ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios.
So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought away from there the ark of the covenant of the Lord of hosts, who dwelleth over the cherubim: and the two sons of 'Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
5 Idi naisangpet iti kampo ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh, nagpukkaw iti napigsa dagiti amin a tattao ti Israel, ket nagungor ti daga.
And it happened when the ark of the covenant of the Lord came into the camp, that all Israel set up a great shout, so that the earth trembled.
6 Idi nangngeg dagiti Filisteo ti ariwawa dagiti agpupukkaw, kinunada, “Ania ti kayat a sawen daytoy a napigsa a panagpupukkaw iti kampo dagiti Hebreo?” Ket naamirisda nga adda iti kampo ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh.
And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shouting, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the Lord was come into the camp.
7 Nagbuteng dagiti Filisteo; kinunada, “Immay ti Dios iti kampo.” Kinunada, “Asitayo pay! Awan pay ti kastoy a napasamak idi!
And the Philistines were afraid; for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for the like of this hath not been, yesterday or the day before.
8 Asitayo pay! Siasino ti mangsalaknib kadatayo manipud iti pigsa daytoy a mannakabalin a Dios? Daytoy ti Dios a nangdarup kadagiti taga-Egipto idiay let-ang babaen iti agduduma a kita ti angol.
Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with every plague in the wilderness.
9 Tumured ken agpakalalakikayo, dakayo a Filisteo, ta no saan agbalinkayo a tagabu dagiti Hebreo, a kas panagbalinda a tagabuyo. Agpakalalaki ken makirangetkayo.”
Be strong, and act like men, O Philistines, so that ye become not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: therefore act like men, and fight.
10 Nakiranget dagiti Filisteo, ket naabak ti Israel. Tunggal maysa a lalaki ket timmaray iti kampona, ket adu unay dagiti napapatay; ta tallopulo a soldado manipud iti Israel ti naidasay.
And the Philistines fought, and the Israelites were smitten, and they fled every man unto his tent: and the defeat was very great; and there fell of Israel thirty thousand men on foot.
11 Naalada ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios, ket natay dagiti dua nga anak ni Eli, a da Ofni ken Finees.
And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of 'Eli, Chophni and Phinehas, died also.
12 Iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw, maysa a lalaki a nagtaud iti tribu ni Benjamin ti timmaray manipud iti paggugubatan ket napan idiay Silo, simmangpet a naray-ab ti kawesna ken kataptapok ti ulona.
And there ran a man of Benjamin from the battlefield, and came to Shiloh on the same day, with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head.
13 Idi simmangpet isuna, nakatugaw ni Eli iti tugawna iti igid ti dalan nga agpadpadaan gapu ta agkebba-kebba ti pusona ta maseknan isuna iti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios. Idi simrek ti lalaki iti siudad ken imbagana ti damag, nagsangit iti napigsa ti entero a siudad.
And when he came, lo, 'Eli was sitting upon a chair by the wayside watching; for his heart was anxious for the ark of God. And when the man came to tell it in the city, all the city cried out.
14 Idi nangngeg ni Eli ti ariwawa ti napigsa a panagsasangit, kinunana, “Ania ti kayat a sawen daytoy nga ariwawa?” Dagus nga immay ti lalaki ket imbagana kenni Eli ti makagapu.
And when 'Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What meaneth the noise of this multitude? And the man came in hastily, and told it to 'Eli.
15 Ita, siyam a pulo ket walo ti tawen ni Eli; nakapsuten ti panagkitana, ket saanen a makakita.
Now 'Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were fixed, so that he could not see.
16 Kinuna ti lalaki kenni Eli, “Siak ti naggapu iti paggugubatan. Naglibasak manipud iti paggugubatan ita nga aldaw.” Ket kinunana, “Ania ti napasamak anakko?”
And the man said unto 'Eli, I am the person that came from the battlefield, and I myself fled from the battlefield today. And he said, What was it that took place, my son?
17 Simmungbat ti lalaki a nangiyeg iti damag ket kinunana, “Intarayan ti Israel dagiti Filisteo. Nakaro met ti pannakaabak dagiti tattao. Dagiti dua nga annakmo, a da Ofni ken Finees, ket natayen ken naipanaw ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios.”
And the messenger answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath also been a great slaughter among the people, and also thy two sons, Chophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God hath been taken.
18 Idi nadakamatna ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios, naliad ni Eli iti tugawna iti igid ti ruangan. Narung-o ti tengngedna, ket natay, gapu ta lakayen ken nadagsen isuna. Nagbalin isuna a kas ukom iti Israel iti las-ud ti uppat a pulo a tawen.
And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the chair backward by the side of the gate, and his neck was broken, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
19 Ita, ti manugangna nga asawa ni Finees ket masikog ken dandanin ti panaganakna. Idi nadamagna a naipanaw ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios ken natay ti katugangan ken asawana, nagparintumeng isuna ket naganak, ngem nakaro unay ti ut-ot a sinagabana gapu iti panaganakna.
And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings concerning that the ark of God had been taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she sank down and gave birth; for her pains came suddenly upon her.
20 Idi matmatayen isuna, kinuna dagiti babbai a nangpaanak kenkuana, “Saanka a mawanan iti namnanama, ta nangipasngayka iti maysa a lalaki.” Ngem saan isuna a simmungbat wenno saanna ida nga impangag.
And at the moment of her dying, the women that stood around her spoke [unto her], Fear not; for a son hast thou born. But she answered not, nor did she take it to heart.
21 Pinanagananna ti ubing iti Icabod, a kinunana, “Pimmanaw ti dayag manipud iti Israel!” ta naagawda ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios, ken gapu iti katugangan ken asawana. Ket kinunana,
And she named the child I-chabod, saying, Glory is departed from Israel; because of the taking away of the ark of God, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 “Pimmanaw ti dayag manipud iti Israel, gapu ta naagaw ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios.”
And she said, Glory is departed from Israel; for the ark of God hath been taken away.
