Sie Samuel 4
1 In pacl se inge mwet Philistia elos fahsreni in som ac mweun lain mwet Israel, ac mwet Israel elos akola pac in lainulos. Mwet Israel elos tulokunak iwen aktuktuk selos in acn Ebenezer, ac mwet Philistia elos tulokunak iwen aktuktuk selos in acn Aphek.
Ilizwi likaSamuweli lafika kuIsrayeli wonke. UIsrayeli wasephuma ukuyamelana lamaFilisti empini, bamisa inkamba ngaseEbeni-Ezeri, lamaFilisti amisa inkamba eAfeki.
2 Mwet Philistia elos mutawauk lain mwet Israel, ac tukun mweun upa lalos, mwet Philistia elos kutangla mwet Israel, ac uniya akuran akosr tausin mwet Israel yen elos mweun we.
AmaFilisti asezihlela ukumelana loIsrayeli; kwathi impi isabalala, uIsrayeli watshaywa phambi kwamaFilisti; njalo atshaya emaviyweni egangeni phose amadoda azinkulungwane ezine.
3 Ke mwet lula sin mwet Israel elos foloko nu nien aktuktuk lalos, mwet kol lalos asiyuki ac fahk, “Efu ku LEUM GOD El lela mwet Philistia inge in kutangkutla misenge? Wona kut in som use Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD Shiloh me, tuh Elan kasrekut ac molikutla liki mwet lokoalok lasr.”
Kwathi abantu befika enkambeni, abadala bakoIsrayeli bathi: INkosi isitshayeleni lamuhla phambi kwamaFilisti? Asizithatheleni eShilo umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi; nxa usiza phakathi kwethu uzasisindisa esandleni sezitha zethu.
4 Na elos supwala kutu mwet nu Shiloh in tuh use Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD Kulana, su nien muta lal oan fin cherub lukwa. Wen luo natul Eli, Hophni ac Phinehas, eltal wi na Tuptup in Wuleang tuku.
Ngakho abantu bathumela eShilo, ukuthi bathathe khona umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi yamabandla, ehlala phakathi kwamakherubhi; lamadodana amabili kaEli, uHofini loPhinehasi, ayelapho lomtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu.
5 Ke Tuptup in Wuleang tuku sun nien aktuktuk, mwet Israel nukewa elos sala ke pusren engan lulap, oru infohk uh kusrusryak.
Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi ufika enkambeni, uIsrayeli wonke wahlokoma ngokuhlokoma okukhulu kwaze kwaduma umhlaba.
6 Ke mwet Philistia elos lohng pusren sasa elos fahk, “Mea kalmen sa lulap se ma tuku liki nien aktuktuk lun mwet Israel inge?” Ke elos lohng lah Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD sun acn we,
Lapho amaFilisti esizwa umsindo wokuhlokoma athi: Utshoni umsindo walokhukuhlokoma okukhulu enkambeni yamaHebheru? Asesazi ukuthi umtshokotsho weNkosi ufikile enkambeni.
7 elos sangeng ac fahk, “Sie god el tuku oasr nien aktuktuk lalos ah! Kut ac wanginla! Tufahna pacl se in sikyak lumah ouinge nu sesr oemeet me!
AmaFilisti asesesaba, ngoba athi: UNkulunkulu ufikile enkambeni. Athi-ke: Maye kithi! Ngoba kakuzanga kwenzeke okunje mandulo.
8 Su ku in molikutla liki god ku lalos inge? Pa inge god lalos ma tuh uniya mwet Egypt yen mwesis ah!
Maye kithi! Ngubani ozasophula esandleni salaba onkulunkulu abalamandla? Laba ngonkulunkulu abatshaya amaGibhithe ngazo zonke inhlupheko enkangala.
9 Mwet Philistia, kowos in pulaikna! Kowos in mweun oana mukul. Kowos fin tia, na kowos ac tufah mwet kohs nu sin mwet Hebrew, oana ke elos tuh mwet kohs nu sesr ah. Ke ma inge, kowos mweun oana mukul!”
Qinani, libe ngamadoda, maFilisti, hlezi lisebenzele amaHebheru njengoba alisebenzela. Ngakho banini ngamadoda, lilwe.
10 Mwet Philistia elos mweun arulana upa, ac elos kutangla mwet Israel, ac mwet Israel elos kaing nu acn selos. Mwet puspis anwuki. Oasr tausin tolngoul mwet mweun lun Israel misa.
Ngakho amaFilisti alwa, loIsrayeli watshaywa, babalekela, ngulowo lalowo ethenteni lakhe. Njalo kwaba lokubulawa okukhulu kakhulu, ngoba kwawa koIsrayeli abayizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu abahamba ngenyawo.
11 Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD sruhu, ac anwuki pac Hophni ac Phinehas, wen luo natul Eli.
Umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu wasuthathwa, lamadodana womabili kaEli, uHofini loPhinehasi, abulawa.
12 Sie mukul in sruf lal Benjamin el kasrusr tuku liki nien mweun uh nu Shiloh, ac sun acn we ke len sacna. El seya nuknuk lal ac sang kutkut nu fin sifal in akkalemye asor lal.
Kwasekugijima umuntu wakoBhenjamini evela emaviyweni, wafika eShilo ngalolosuku, lezigqoko zakhe zidatshuliwe elenhlabathi ekhanda lakhe.
13 Eli el nunku yohk ke Tuptup in Wuleang, ac el mutana ngetnget fin mwe muta lal sisken inkanek ah. Ke mwet sac el tuku ac sulkakin pweng inge nu in siti uh, na mwet nukewa elos wowoyak ke sangeng.
Ekufikeni kwakhe, khangela-ke, uEli wayehlezi esihlalweni eceleni kwendlela elindile, ngoba inhliziyo yakhe yayithuthumelela umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Kwathi lowomuntu esengenile emzini ukubika, kwakhala umuzi wonke.
14 Ke Eli el lohng pusren mwet uh el siyuk, “Mea kalmen wowon ingan?” Na mwet sac sulaklak nu yorol ac fahkak ma sikyak nu sel. (
Lapho uEli esizwa umsindo wokukhala wathi: Uyini umsindo wale inhlokomo? Lowomuntu wasephangisa weza wamtshela uEli.
15 Eli el yac eungoul oalkosr in pacl se inge, ac apkuran in kunla na pwaye mutal.)
Njalo uEli wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye leyisificaminwembili, lamehlo akhe ema ukuthi ayengelakho ukubona.
16 Na mwet sac fahk, “Nga kaingla liki nien mweun uh, ac kasrusr na oe we me misenge.” Ac Eli el siyuk sel, “Wen nutik, fuka mweun ah?”
Lowomuntu wasesithi kuEli: Nginguye ovela emaviyweni; ngibaleke emaviyweni lamuhla. Wasesithi: Kwenziweni, ndodana yami?
17 Mwet sac fahk nu sel, “Mwet Israel elos kaing liki mwet Philistia. Kut kuf na pwaye! Oayapa anwuki wen luo nutum, Hophni ac Phinehas, ac Tuptup in Wuleang lun God sruhu!”
Owaletha umbiko wasephendula wathi: UIsrayeli ubalekile phambi kwamaFilisti, futhi kube lokubulawa okukhulu ebantwini, njalo lamadodana akho womabili, uHofini loPhinehasi, afile, lomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe.
18 Ke pacl se mwet sac fahk ke Tuptup in Wuleang, na Eli el topla nu tok liki mwe muta lal sisken mutunpot in siti uh. El arulana matu ac toasr ke lupal, pwanang kaptelik inkawal ac el misa. El mwet kol fin Israel ke lusen yac angngaul.
Kwasekusithi esekhulume ngomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, wawa nyovane esihlalweni eceleni kwesango, kwephuka intamo yakhe, wafa, ngoba lowomuntu wayemdala, enzima. Njalo wayahlulele uIsrayeli iminyaka engamatshumi amane.
19 Mutan kial Phinehas, wen natul Eli, el pitutu ac apkuran in isusla. Ke el lohng lah sruhu Tuptup in Wuleang lun God, ac ke papa talupal oayapa mukul tumal ah tukeni misa, na ngal in isus lal tuyang, ac el isusla.
Lomalokazana wakhe, umkaPhinehasi, wayekhulelwe, esezabeletha; esezwile umbiko wokuthi umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe, lokuthi uyisezala lomkakhe bafile, wakhothama wabeletha, ngoba wafikelwa yimihelo.
20 Ke el keok ac apkuran in misa, mutan in akisus lal elos fahk nu sel, “Akkeye kom, tuh kom oswela tari wen se!” Tusruktu el tiana lohang, ku topkolos.
Njalo phose ngesikhathi sokufa kwakhe abesifazana ababemi belaye bathi: Ungesabi, ngoba ubelethe indodana. Kodwa kaphendulanga njalo kazange akunanze.
21 El sang inen tulik sac Ichabod, su kalmah “Wolana lun God som liki Israel,” ke sripen sruhu Tuptup in Wuleang, oayapa papa talupal ac mukul tumal tukenina misa.
Wambiza umfana ngokuthi nguIkabodi, esithi: Inkazimulo isukile koIsrayeli; ngoba umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe, langenxa kayisezala lomkakhe.
22 El fahk mu, “Wolana lun God fahsr liki Israel mweyen Tuptup in Wuleang lun God sruhu.”
Wasesithi: Inkazimulo isukile koIsrayeli ngoba umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu uthethwe.
