1 Samoela 17
1 Ary ny Filistina namory ny miaramilany hiady, ka tafavory tao Soko any Joda izy ary nitoby teo anelanelan’ i Soko sy Azeka, dia tao Efesa-damima.
Nowe the Philistims gathered their armies to battell, and came together to Shochoh, which is in Iudah, and pitched betweene Shochoh and Azekah, in the coast of Dammim.
2 Ary Saoly sy ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely dia tafavory ka nitoby teo amin’ ny lohasaha Elaha ary nilahatra hiady amin’ ny Filistina.
And Saul, and the men of Israel assembled, and pitched in the valley of Elah, and put themselues in battell araie to meete the Philistims.
3 Ary ny Filistina dia teo am-pita teo amin’ ny tendrombohitra iray, ary ny Isiraely kosa teo am-pita teo amin’ ny tendrombohitra iray, ary lohasaha no elanelany.
And the Philistims stoode on a mountaine on the one side, and Israel stoode on a mountaine on the other side: so a valley was betweene them.
4 Ary nisy lehilahy iray mpihantsy ady nivoaka avy teny amin’ ny tobin’ ny Filistina, Goliata avy any Gata no anarany; enina hakiho sy irain-jehy no halavany
Then came a man betweene them both out of the tents of the Philistims, named Goliath of Gath: his height was sixe cubites and an hande breadth,
5 Ary nisatroka fiarovan-doha varahina izy, ary niakanjo fiarovan-tratra, ka ny lanjan’ ny akanjony varahina dia dimy arivo sekely.
Aud had an helmet of brasse vpon his head, and a brigandine vpon him: and the weight of his brigandine was fiue thousand shekels of brasse.
6 Ary nanao fiarovan-dranjo varahina tamin’ ny tongony izy ary lefom-pohy varahina teo an-damosiny.
And he had bootes of brasse vpon his legs, and a shield of brasse vpon his shoulders.
7 Ary ny haben’ ny zaran-defony dia tahaka ny vodi-tenon’ ny mpanenona; ary ny lela-lefony dia vy lanjan-tsekely enin-jato; ary nisy nitondra ny ampinga lehibe nandeha teo alohany.
And the shaft of his speare was like a weauers beame: and his speare head weyed sixe hundreth shekels of yron: and one bearing a shielde went before him.
8 Ary nijanona izy, dia niantso ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana ianareo no mivoaka hilahatra hiady? Tsy Filistina va aho, ary ianareo kosa mpanompon’ i Saoly? Mifidiana lehilahy iray ianareo, ary aoka izy hidina etỳ amiko.
And he stoode, and cried against the hoste of Israel, and saide vnto them, Why are yee come to set your battell in aray? am not I a Philistim, and you seruaunts to Saul? chuse you a man for you, and let him come downe to me.
9 Raha tàhiny maharesy ahy izy ka mahafaty ahy, dia ho mpanomponareo izahay; fa raha resiko kosa izy ka matiko, dia ho mpanomponay ianareo ka hanompo anay.
If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, then wil we be your seruants: but if I ouercome him, and kill him, then shall yee be our seruants, and serue vs.
10 Ary hoy ilay Filistina: Izaho efa nihaika ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely androany; amoahy lehilahy iray aho hiady amiko.
Also the Philistim saide, I defie the hoste of Israel this day: giue mee a man, that we may fight together.
11 Ary raha ren’ i Saoly sy ny Isiraely rehetra izany tenin’ ilay Filistina izany, dia nivadi-po izy ka raikitahotra loatra.
When Saul and all Israel heard those wordes of the Philistim, they were discouraged, and greatly afraide.
12 Ary Davida dia zanak’ ilay Efratita avy any Betlehema-joda atao hoe Jese, izay nanana zanaka valo mirahalahy; ary Jese dia efa zokiolona sy anti-panahy tamin’ ny andron’ i Saoly;
Nowe this Dauid was the sonne of an Ephrathite of Beth-lehem Iudah, named Ishai, which had eight sonnes: and this man was taken for an olde man in the daies of Saul.
13 ary ny zokiny telo lahy tamin’ ny zanak’ i Jese lasa nanaraka an’ i Saoly nankany an-tafika; ary ny anaran’ ny zanany telo lahy lasa nankany an-tafika dia Eliaba, lahimatoa, sy Abinadaba, lahiaivo, ary Sama no fahatelony;
And the three eldest sonnes of Ishai went and followed Saul to the battel: and the names of his three sonnes that went to battell, were Eliab the Eldest, and the next Abinadab, and the thirde Shammah.
14 ary Davida no faralahy; ary izy telo lahy zokiny lasa nanaraka an’ i Saoly;
So Dauid was the least: and the three eldest went after Saul.
15 fa Davida kosa nivoivoy avy tany amin’ i Saoly hiandry ny ondrin-drainy tany Betlehema.
Dauid also went, but hee returned from Saul to feede his fathers sheepe in Beth-lehem.
16 Ary ilay Filistina nanatona marain-tsy hariva ka niseho efa-polo andro.
And the Philistim drew neere in the morning, and euening, and continued fourtie daies.
17 Ary hoy Jese tamin’ i Davida zanany: Ento ity lango eran’ ny efaha ity sy ireto mofo folo ireto ho an’ ny rahalahinao; ka dia atero faingana ho any an-toby ho any amin’ ny rahalahinao.
And Ishai said vnto Dauid his sone, Take nowe for thy brethren an Ephah of this parched corne, and these ten cakes, and runne to the hoste to thy brethren.
18 Ary ento ho an’ ny mpifehy arivony ireto fromazy didiny folo ireto, dia izahao na tsara ihany ny rahalahinao, na manao ahoana, ary itondray izay hahafantarako ny toeny aho.
Also carie these ten fresh cheeses vnto the captaine, and looke howe thy brethren fare, and receiue their pledge.
19 Ary Saoly sy izy telo lahy mbamin’ ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely dia teo amin’ ny lohasaha Elaha niady tamin’ ny Filistina.
(Then Saul and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistims)
20 Dia nifoha maraina koa Davida ka namela ny ondriny hotandreman’ olona, ary naka ny entany izy ka lasa nandeha araka ny nandidian’ i Jese azy; ary tonga teo amin’ ny sehatra-sariety izy; ary ny antokon’ ny miaramila izay efa hivoaka hilahatra dia nanakora hiady tamin’ izay.
So Dauid rose vp earely in the morning, and left the sheepe with a keeper, and tooke and went as Ishai had commanded him, and came within the compasse of the hoste: and the hoste went out in araie, and shouted in the battell.
21 Fa ny Isiraely sy ny Filistina efa nilahatra hiady ka nifanatrika ny miaramila.
For Israel and the Philistims had put themselues in araie, armie against armie.
22 Ary Davida namela ny entany teo anilan’ ny mpiambina entana, dia nihazakazaka nankeny amin’ ny laharan’ ny miaramila, ary tonga ka nanontany ny amin’ izay toetry ny rahalahiny.
And Dauid left the things, which hee bare, vnder the handes of the keeper of the cariage, and ranne into the hoste, and came, and asked his brethren howe they did.
23 Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy izy, indro, tamy niakatra avy teo amin’ ny laharan’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina ilay mpihantsy ady, lehilahy Filistina avy any Gata, Goliata no anarany; ary niteny tahaka ny teo aloha ihany izy ka ren’ i Davida.
And as hee talked with them, beholde, the man that was betweene the two armies, came vp, (whose name was Goliath ye Philistim of Gath) out of the armie of the Philistims, and spake such woordes, and Dauid heard them.
24 ary ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely, raha nahita io lehilahy io, dia nandositra azy, fa natahotra indrindra izy.
And all the men of Israel, when they sawe the man, ranne away from him, and were sore afraied.
25 Ary hoy ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely: Efa hitanareo va io lehilahy miakatra io? Hihaika ny Isiraely no iakarany; koa izay lehilahy mahafaty io dia hataon’ ny mpanjaka manan-karem-bevava, ary dia homeny koa ny zananivavy ho vadiny, sady tsy hampandoavin-ketra amin’ ny Isiraely ny tarana-drainy.
For euery man of Israel saide, Sawe yee not this man that commeth vp? euen to reuile Israel is he come vp: and to him that killeth him, wil the king giue great riches, and will giue him his daughter, yea, and make his fathers house free in Israel.
26 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ ny olona teo anilany: Ahoana sy ahoana ange no hatao amin’ izay lehilahy mahafaty io Filistina io ka mahafa-tondromaso ny Isiraely? Fa zinona moa io Filistina tsy mifora io, no dia hihaika ny miaramilan’ Andriamanitra velona?
Then Dauid spake to the men that stoode with him, and sayde, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistim, and taketh away the shame from Israel? for who is this vncircumcised Philistim, that he shoulde reuile the hoste of the liuing God?
27 Ary ny olona namaly hoe: Izany ka izany no hatao amin’ izay lehilahy mahafaty azy.
And the people answered him after this maner, saying, Thus shall it be done to the man that killeth him.
28 Ary Eliaba zokiny nandre azy niteny tamin’ ny olona dia nirehitra tamin’ i Davida ny fahatezerany, ka hoy izy: Nahoana ianao no midìna etỳ? Ary amin’ iza moa no namelanao ireny ondry vitsy ireny any an-efitra? fantatro ny avonavonao sy ny faharatsian’ ny fonao, fa hizaha ny ady no idinanao etỳ.
And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake vnto the men, and Eliab was verie angrie with Dauid, and sayde, Why camest thou downe hither? and with whome hast thou left those fewe sheepe in the wildernesse? I knowe thy pride and the malice of thine heart, that thou art come downe to see the battell.
29 Ary hoy Davida: Moa maninona aho izao? Mba miteny aho, ka nahoana moa?
Then Dauid sayde, What haue I nowe done? Is there not a cause?
30 Ary niala teo aminy hankany amin’ ny sasany koa izy ka niteny tahaka ny teo; ary ny olona namaly azy tahaka ny teo ihany indray.
And hee departed from him into the presence of another, and spake of the same maner, and the people answered him according to the former woordes.
31 Ary nony ren’ ny olona ny teny izay nataon’ i Davida, dia nambarany tamin’ i Saoly; ka dia naniraka naka azy izy.
And they that heard the wordes which Dauid spake, rehearsed them before Saul, which caused him to be brought.
32 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Saoly: Aoka tsy ho ketraka amin’ ilehio ny fon’ ny olona; fa ny mpanomponao handeha hiady amin’ io Filistina io.
So Dauid saide to Saul, Let no mans heart faile him, because of him: thy seruant wil goe, and fight with this Philistim.
33 Fa hoy Saoly tamin’ i Davida: Tsy tohanao ny handeha hiady amin’ io Filistina io, satria mbola zaza ianao, fa izy efa mpiady hatrizay niainany.
And Saul sayde to Dauid, Thou art not able to goe against this Philistim to fight with him: for thou art a boye, and he is a man of warre from his youth.
34 Fa hoy Davida tamin’ i Saoly: Ny mpanomponao niandry ny ondrin-drainy, ary nisy liona sy bera tonga tao ka nahalasa zanak’ ondry teo amin’ ny ondry,
And Dauid answered vnto Saul, Thy seruant kept his fathers sheepe, and there came a lyon, and likewise a beare, and tooke a sheepe out of the flocke,
35 dia nanenjika azy aho ka namely azy, ary azoko teny am-bavany ilay zanak’ ondry; ary nony handramatra ahy izy, dia nohazoniko tamin’ ny somony, ary nasiako ka matiko.
And I went out after him and smote him, and tooke it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by the beard, and smote him, and slue him.
36 Ny liona sy ny bera samy novonoin’ ny mpanomponao; ary io Filistina tsy mifora io dia ho tahaka ny anankiray amin’ ireny, satria nihaika ny miaramilan’ Andriamanitra velona izy.
So thy seruaunt slue both the lyon, and the beare: therefore this vncircumcised Philistim shall be as one of them, seeing hee hath railed on the hoste of the liuing God.
37 Ary hoy koa Davida; Jehovah, Izay namonjy ahy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny liona sy ny bera, Izy no hamonjy ahy amin’ ny tanan’ io Filistina io. Dia hoy Saoly tamin’ i Davida; Mandehana, ary homba anao anie Jehovah.
Moreouer Dauid sayd, The Lord that deliuered me out of the pawe of the lyon, and out of the paw of the beare, he wil deliuer me out of the hand of this Philistim. Then Saul sayd vnto Dauid, Go, and the Lord be with thee.
38 Ary Saoly nampiakanjo an’ i Davida ny akanjo fiadiany ary nanisy fiarovan-doha varahina tamin’ ny lohany sy nampiakanjo azy akanjo fiarovan-tratra.
And Saul put his rayment vpon Dauid, and put an helmet of brasse vpon his head, and put a brigandine vpon him.
39 Ary Davida namehy ny sabany tamin’ ny akanjo fiadiany, dia nanandrana handeha; fa tsy mbola nahazatra azy izany, ka hoy izy tamin’ i Saoly: Tsy afa-mandeha amin’ ireto aho, fa tsy mbola nahazatra ahy; ary dia nesorin’ i Davida izany.
Then girded Dauid his sword vpon his rayment, and began to go: for he neuer proued it: and Dauid sayde vnto Saul, I can not goe with these: for I am not accustomed. wherefore Dauid put them off him.
40 Dia nitondra ny tehiny teny an-tànany izy sady nifidy vato kilonjy dimy tao amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka, ka nataony tao anatin’ ny kitapo fitondran’ ny mpiandry ondry, izay teny aminy, ary ny antsamotadiny koa teny an-tànany; dia nanatona ilay Filistina izy.
Then tooke he his staffe in his hand, and chose him fiue smoothe stones out of a brooke, and put them in his shepheards bagge or skrippe, and his sling was in his hand, and he drewe neere to the Philistim.
41 Ary ilay Filistina nandroso nanatona an’ i Davida, sady teo alohany ilay lehilahy mitondra ny ampinga lehibe.
And the Philistim came and drew neere vnto Dauid, and the man that bare the shielde went before him.
42 Ary nony nijerijery an’ i Davida ilay Filistina ka nahita azy, dia nianjonanjona taminy, fa tanora izy sady mena volo no tsara tarehy.
Now when the Philistim looked about and saw Dauid, he disdeined him: for he was but yong, ruddie, and of a comely face.
43 Ary hoy ilay Filistina tamin’ i Davida: Alika angaha aho, no hatonin’ ialahy amin’ ny tehina? Ary nanozona an’ i Davida tamin’ ireo andriamaniny ilay Filistina
And the Philistim sayde vnto Dauid, Am I a dog, that thou commest to me with staues? And the Philistim cursed Dauid by his gods.
44 sady nanao tamin’ i Davida hoe: Avia etỳ amiko, dia homeko ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia ny nofon’ ialahy.
And the Philistim sayd to Dauid, Come to me, and I will giue thy flesh vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beastes of the field.
45 Fa hoy kosa Davida tamin’ ilay Filistina: Hianao manatona ahy amin’ ny sabatra sy ny lefona ary ny lefom-pohy; fa izaho kosa manatona anao amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely, Izay efa nohaikainao.
Then sayd Dauid to the Philistim, Thou commest to me with a sword, and with a speare, and with a shield, but I come to thee in the Name of the Lord of hostes, the God of the hoste of Israel, whom thou hast rayled vpon.
46 Anio no hanoloran’ i Jehovah anao amin’ ny tanako, ary hamely anao aho ka hanapaka ny lohanao, dia homeko ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia ny fatin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina anio, mba ho fantatry ny tany rehetra fa manana Andriamanitra tokoa ny Isiraely.
This day shall the Lord close thee in mine hand, and I shall smite thee, and take thine head from thee, and I wil giue the carkeises of the hoste of the Philistims this daye vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beasts of the earth, that all the world may know that Israel hath a God,
47 Ary ho fantatr’ izao fiangonana rehetra izao fa tsy sabatra sy lefona no amonjen’ i Jehovah; fa an’ i Jehovah ny ady, ary hanolotra anareo ho eo an-tananay Izy.
And that all this assembly may know, that the Lord saueth not with sworde nor with speare (for the battel is the Lords) and he will giue you into our handes.
48 Ary nony niainga ilay Filistina ka nanatona hitsena an’ i Davida, dia nandroso faingana Davida ka nihazakazaka ho eo amin’ ny laharan’ ny miaramila hitsena ilay Filistina.
And when the Philistim arose to come and drawe neere vnto Dauid, Dauid hasted and ran to fight against the Philistim.
49 Ary natsofok’ i Davida tao an-kitapo ny tananay, ka naka vato tao izy, ka dia nalefany tamin’ ny antsamotady, ka nahavoa ilay Filistina tamin’ ny handriny, ary nilentika tamin’ ny handriny ny vato, dia potraka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany izy.
And Dauid put his hande in his bagge, and tooke out a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistim in his forehead, that the stone sticked in his forehead, and he fell groueling to the earth.
50 Toy izany no nandresen’ i Davida ilay Filistina tamin’ ny vaton’ antsamotady, fa namely ilay Filistina izy ka nahafaty azy, ary tsy nisy sabatra teny an-tànan’ i Davida.
So Dauid ouercame the Philistim with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistim, and slew him, when Dauid had no sword in his hand.
51 Dia nihazakazaka Davida ka nitsangana teo anilan’ ilay Filistina, dia nalainy ny sabatr’ ilehio ka notsoahany tamin’ ny tranony, dia namonoany azy, sy nanapahany ny lohany. Ary nony hitan’ ny Filistina fa maty ilay lehilahy maheriny, dia vaky nandositra izy.
Then Dauid ranne, and stood vpon the Philistim, and tooke his sword and drew it out of his sheath, and slewe him, and cut off his head therewith. So whe the Philistims saw, that their champion was dead, they fled.
52 Ary ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda dia nitsangana ka nanakora sy nanenjika ny Filistina hatrany akaikin’ i Gay sy ny vavahadin’ i Ekrona; ary izay voa tamin’ ny Filistina dia niampatrampatra teny amin’ ny lalana mankany Saraima ary hatrany Gata ka hatrany Ekrona.
And the men of Israel and Iudah arose, and shouted, and followed after the Philistims, vntill they came to the valley, and vnto the gates of Ekron: and the Philistims fell downe wounded by the way of Shaaraim, euen to Gath and to Ekron.
53 Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely niverina avy nanenjika mafy ny Filistina ka namabo ny tobiny koa.
And the children of Israel returned from pursuing the Philistims, and spoyled their tents.
54 Ary ny lohan’ ilay Filistina dia noraisin’ i Davida ka nentiny tany Jerosalema; fa ny fiadiany napetrany tao amin’ ny lainy.
And Dauid tooke the head of ye Philistim, and brought it to Ierusalem, and put his armour in his tent.
55 Ary nony nahita an’ i Davida nandeha hiady tamin’ ny Filistina Saoly, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Abnera, komandin’ ny miaramila: Ry Abnera, zanak’ iza moa iny zaza iny? Ary hoy Abnera: Raha velona koa ny ainao, ry mpanjaka, tsy fantatro velively.
When Saul sawe Dauid go forth against the Philistim, he sayd vnto Abner the captaine of his hoste, Abner, whose sonne is this yong man? and Abner answered, As thy soule liueth, O King, I can not tell.
56 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Anontanionao na zanak’ iza na zanak’ iza iny zaza iny.
Then the King sayde, Enquire thou whose sonne this yong man is.
57 Ary nony niverina avy namono ilay Filistina Davida, dia nalain’ i Abnera izy ka nentiny teo anatrehan’ i Saoly, ary mbola teny an-tànany ihany ny lohan’ ilay Filistina.
And when Dauid was returned from the slaughter of the Philistim, then Abner tooke him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistim in his hand.
58 Dia hoy Saoly taminy: Zanak’ iza moa ianao, ry zatovo? Ary hoy Davida: Zanak’ i Jese Betlehemita mpanomponao aho.
And Saul sayde to him, Whose sonne art thou, thou yong man? And Dauid answered, I am the sonne of thy seruant Ishai the Bethlehemite.
