Sie Samuel 13
1 Saul el yac ... matu ke el mutawauk in tokosra, ac el leum fin mwet Israel ke lusen yac ... ac luo.
Saul was ruling for less than a year, when he ruled during year two over Israel,
2 Saul el sulela tolu tausin mwet Israel, ac el sruokya luo tausin selos in muta yorol in acn Michmash ac infulan eol Bethel, na el supwalla Jonathan, wen natul, ac sie tausin selos nu Gibeah, siti se in facl sin sruf lal Benjamin. Mwet nukewa lula el supwalik nu acn selos.
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 Jonathan el uniya captain lun mwet Philistia in acn Geba, ac mwet Philistia nukewa elos lohngak. Na Saul el supwalik mwet utuk kas tuh elos in som ac ukya mwe ukuk in facl sac nufon in pangoneni mwet Hebrew nu ke mweun.
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 Fwackyuk nu sin mwet Israel nukewa lah Saul el uniya captain lun mwet Philistia, ac mwet Philistia elos arulana kwaselos. Ke ma inge, mwet Israel elos insesela in som osun nu sel Saul in acn 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 Mwet Philistia elos toeni nu sie in mweun lain mwet Israel. Oasr chariot in mweun tolngoul tausin natulos, ac onkosr tausin mwet kasrusr fin horse, ac pisen mwet mweun lalos pus oana puk weacn uh. Elos utyak nu Michmash, kutulap in acn Bethaven, ac tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos we.
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 Na elos oru mweun na upa se lain mwet Israel. Ke mwet Israel elos arulana fosrnga, kutu selos wikla in luf srisrik ac luf lulap pe eol uh, ac inmasrlon eot lulap, ac in laf, ac luin luf in kof.
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 Ac kutu selos kaing sasla Infacl Jordan nu in acn Gad ac Gilead. Saul el srakna muta Gilgal, ac mwet su welul elos sangeng ac rarrar.
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 Saul el muta soanel Samuel ke len itkosr in oana ma Samuel el tuh sapkin, tusruktu Samuel el soenna tuku nu Gilgal. Na mwet su welul Saul inge mutawauk in fahsrelik.
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 Na Saul el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Use mwe kisa firir, ac mwe kisa in akinsewowo.” Na el kisakin mwe kisa firir.
Saul said, "Bring here the burnt offering to me, and the peace offerings." He offered the burnt offering.
10 Ke el tufahna tari, Samuel el tuku. Saul el illa in osun nu sel ac paingul.
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 Ac Samuel el fahk, “Mea se kom oru an?” Ac Saul el topuk, “Mwet uh mutawauk som likiyu, ac kom tia tuku ke pacl se kom tuh fahk ah. Sayen ma sacn, mwet Philistia elos toeni tari nu Michmash.
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 Nga sifacna nunku tuh mwet Philistia elos ac tuku lainyu inge in Gilgal, ac nga soenna srike in siyuk tuh LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoyeyu. Na pa nga nunku mu nga enenu na in oru sie mwe kisa.”
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 Ac Samuel el fahk, “Ma na lalfon se pa kom oru an. Kom tiana akos ma LEUM GOD lom El sapkin nu sum. Kom funu akos, El lukun sot tuh kom ac fwil nutum in leum fin mwet Israel nwe tok.
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 Tuh inge, kom ac fah tia tokosra paht. Ke sripen kom tia akos, LEUM GOD El ac fah suk sie mwet ma sun insial, ac oru tuh elan leum fin mwet lal.”
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 Ac Samuel el fahsr liki acn Gilgal ac som inkanek lal. Mwet lula nukewa welul Saul som in weang mwet mweun lal. Elos som liki acn Gilgal nu Gibeah in acn lun Benjamin. Saul el oek mwet lula lal inge tuh na oasr mwet onfoko ma.
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 Saul ac Jonathan, wen natul, ac mwet su welulos elos tulokinya nien aktuktuk lalos in Geba in fahl Benjamin. Nien aktuktuk lun mwet Philistia oasr in Michmash.
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 Mwet mweun lun mwet Philistia elos illa liki lohm nuknuk selos in u tolu, in oru mweun lukma lalos. Sie u ah som ke innek nu Ophrah, su oasr in facl Shual.
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 Sie u ah som ke innek nu Beth Horon, ac sie u ah som nu fineol ma ngeti nu Infahlfal Zeboim ac yen mwesis uh.
and another company turned the way to Beth Horon; and another company turned toward the border that overlooks the valley of Zeboim.
19 Wangin mwet orekma ke osra fin acn Israel nufon, mweyen mwet Philistia elos tiana lela mwet Hebrew in orek osra in fakfuk ku cutlass. (
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 Mwet Israel elos enenu na elos in som nu yurin mwet Philistia in tete mwe kulkul, mwe pukpuk, tuhla, ac mitmit in imom natulos.
But all Israel would go down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, mattock, axe, and sickle;
21 Molin tete tuhla ac mitmit pa ipin mani se. Molin tete mwe kulkul ac mwe pukpuk pa ipin mani luo.)
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 Ouinge, ke len in mweun lalos ah, wangin mwet Israel oasr osra in fakfuk ku cutlass natulos, sayal Saul ac Jonathan.
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 Mwet Philistia elos supwala un mwet mweun in karingin Innek in Utyak nu Michmash.
The garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
