1 Tantara 10
1 Ary ny Filistina niady tamin’ ny Isiraely, ary nandositra teo anoloan’ ny Filistina ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely, ka niampatrampatra teny an-tendrombohitra Gilboa ny faty.
Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
2 Ary ny Filistina nanenjika fatratra an’ i Saoly sy ny zanany, ka matin’ ny Filistina Jonatana sy Abinadaba sy Malkisoa, zanakalahin’ i Saoly.
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3 Ary mafy ny ady tamin’ i Saoly, dia nifanehatra tamin’ ny mpandefa tsipìka izy; ary raiki-tahotra izy noho ny mpandefa tsipìka.
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers.
4 Ka hoy Saoly tamin’ ny mpitondra ny fiadiany: Tsoahy ny sabatrao, ka tsatohy miboroaka aho; fandrao avy irery tsy mifora irery ka hanao ahy ho fihomehezana. Nefa tsy nety ny mpitondra ny fiadiany, fa natahotra loatra izy. Dia nalain’ i Saoly ny sabatra ka nianjerany.
Then said Saul to his armor bearer, Draw your sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armor bearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell on it.
5 Ary rehefa hitan’ ny mpitondra ny fiadiana fa maty Saoly, dia mba nianjera tamin’ ny sabany koa izy ka maty.
And when his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.
6 Ka dia niara-maty Saoly sy ny zanany telo lahy ary ny ankohonany rehetra.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.
7 Ary nony hitan’ ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely teny amin’ ny lohasaha fa nandositra ny olona, ary maty Saoly sy ny zanany, dia niala tamin’ ny tanànany izy ka nandositra; ary dia tonga ny Filistina ka nonina tao.
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelled in them.
8 Ary nony ampitso, raha tonga haka ny zavatra teo amin’ ny faty ny Filistina, dia nahita an’ i Saoly sy ny zananilahy niampatrampatra teo an-tendrombohitra Gilboa izy.
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
9 Dia nesoriny ny akanjony, ka nentiny ny lohany sy ny fiadiany, ary dia naniraka tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina manodidina izy hanambara izany zavatra mahafaly izany tamin’ ny sampiny sy ny olona.
And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings to their idols, and to the people.
10 Dia napetrany tao an-tranon’ ny andriamaniny ny fiadian’ i Saoly, ary nohomboany teo amin’ ny tempolin’ i Dagona ny lohany.
And they put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
11 Ary nony ren’ ny mponina rehetra tao Jabesi-gileada izay rehetra nataon’ ny Filistina tamin’ i Saoly,
And when all Jabeshgilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 dia niainga ny lehilahy mahery rehetra naka ny fatin’ i Saoly sy ny fatin’ ny zanany ka nitondra azy ho any Jabesy, ary nandevina ny taolany teo ambanin’ ilay hazo terebinta tany Jabesy izy, ary dia nifady hanina hafitoana.
They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 Eny, maty Saoly noho ny nivadihany tamin’ i Jehovah, dia noho ny tsy nitandremany ny tenin’ i Jehovah sy noho ny nakany saina tamin’ izay nanao azy ho tsindrian-javatra
So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to inquire of it;
14 ary noho ny tsy nanontaniany tamin’ i Jehovah; ka dia novonoiny izy, ary nafindrany ho an’ i Davida, zanak’ i Jese, ny fanjakana.
And inquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
