1 Samoela 28
1 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany ny Filistina dia namory ny miaramilany hanafika ny Isiraely. Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ i Davida: Aoka ho fantatrao tsara fa hiara-mivoaka amiko hanafika ianao sy ny olonao.
It happened in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare, to fight with Israel. Achish said to David, "Know assuredly that you are to go out with me to battle, you and your men."
2 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Akisy: Amin’ izao dia ho fantatrao tokoa izay hain’ ny mpanomponao hatao. Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ i Davida: Noho izany dia hataoko mpiaro ny lohako mandrakizay ianao.
David said to Achish, "Therefore you shall know what your servant will do." Achish said to David, "therefore I will make you my bodyguard for ever."
3 (Ary efa maty Samoela, ka ny Isiraely rehetra efa nisaona azy sy nandevina azy tao Rama, dia tao an-tanànany. Ary efa noroahin’ i Saoly hiala amin’ ny tany izay nanao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana.)
Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. Saul had removed the mediums, and spiritists, from the land.
4 Ary ny Filistina nivory, dia tonga ka nitoby tao Sonema; fa Saoly namory ny Isiraely rehetra, ka nitoby tao Gilboa kosa ireo.
The Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and camped in Shunem: and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they camped in Gilboa.
5 Ary Saoly, raha nahita ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina, dia raiki-tahotra sady niemponempona ny fony.
When Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
6 Ary Saoly dia nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah, fa Jehovah tsy namaly azy, na tamin’ ny nofy, na tamin’ ny Orima, na tamin’ ny mpaminany.
When Saul inquired of YHWH, YHWH did not answer him, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
7 Ary hoy Saoly tamin’ ny mpanompony: Itadiavo vehivavy manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra aho hankanesako any hanontaniako aminy. Ary hoy ny mpanompony taminy: Indro, misy vehivavy manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra eo Andora.
Then Saul said to his servants, "Find for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." His servants said to him, "Look, there is a woman who is a medium at Endor."
8 Dia nanova tarehy Saoly ka nitafy fitafiana hafa, dia nandeha izy sy ny olona roa lahy nanaraka azy ka tonga tao amin-dravehivavy nony alina; ary hoy izy: Masìna ianao, manaova fankatovana ho ahy amin’ ny zavatra manindry anao, ka ampiakaro ho etỳ amiko izay hotononiko aminao.
Saul disguised himself, and put on other clothing, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night. And he said, "Divine a spirit for me, please, and bring up for me the one whom I name to you."
9 Ary hoy ravehivavy taminy: Indro, fantatrao izay nataon’ i Saoly, dia ny nandroahany ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana hiala amin’ ny tany, ka nahoana ianao no mamandrika ny aiko hahafaty ahy?
The woman said to him, "Look, you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off the mediums and spiritists out of the land. Why then do you lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?"
10 Ary Saoly nianiana tamin’ i Jehovah ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia tsy hisy heloka hahazo anao amin’ izao zavatra izao.
But Saul swore to her, saying, "As YHWH lives, no punishment will come upon you for this thing."
11 Dia hoy ravehivavy: Iza ary no hampiakariko ho eto aminao? Ary hoy izy: Samoela no ampiakaro ho etỳ amiko.
Then the woman said, "Whom shall I bring up to you?" He said, "Bring Samuel up for me."
12 Ary hitan-dravehivavy Samoela, dia nidradradradra tamin’ ny feo mafy izy ka nanao tamin’ i Saoly hoe: Nahoana no namitaka ahy ianao? fa ianao no Saoly.
When the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, "Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul."
13 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Aza matahotra; fa inona no hitanao? Ary hoy ravehivavy tamin’ i Saoly: Andriamanitra miakatra avy amin’ ny tany no hitako.
The king said to her, "Do not be afraid. For what do you see?" The woman said to Saul, "I see a god coming up out of the earth."
14 Ary hoy izy taminy: Manao ahoana no endriny? Dia hoy izy: Lehilahy antitra no miakatra sady mikapôty izy. Ary fantatr’ i Saoly fa Samoela izay, dia niondrika tamin’ ny tany izy ka niankohoka.
He said to her, "What does he look like?" She said, "An old man comes up. He is covered with a robe." Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and showed respect.
15 Ary hoy Samoela tamin’ i Saoly: Nahoana no korontaninao aho ka ampiakarinao? Dia hoy Saoly: Tery loatra aho, fa miady amiko ny Filistina, ary Andriamanitra efa nahafoy ahy ka tsy mamaly teny ahy intsony, na amin’ ny mpaminany, na amin’ ny nofy; koa izany no nampanalako anao mba hampahalalanao ahy izay hataoko.
And Samuel said, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" And Saul answered, "I am very distressed, for the Philistines are fighting against me, and God has turned away from me and no longer answers me, either by prophets, or by dreams. So therefore I have called on you, that you may make known to me what I should do."
16 Ary hoy Samoela: Nahoana no manontany amiko ianao, nefa Jehovah efa mahafoy anao ka tonga fahavalonao.
Samuel said, "Why then do you ask of me, since YHWH has departed from you and is with your neighbor?
17 Fa Jehovah efa nanao ho Azy araka ny nampilazainy ahy; fa efa nendahany hiala amin’ ny tananao ny fanjakana ka nomeny an’ i Davida namanao.
YHWH has done to you as he spoke by me. YHWH has torn the kingdom out of your hand, and given it to your neighbor, even to David.
18 Satria tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah ianao ka tsy nahatanteraka ny fahatezerany mirehitra tamin’ ny Amalekita, dia izany no nanaovan’ i Jehovah izao zavatra izao taminao androany.
Because you did not obey the voice of YHWH, and did not execute his fierce wrath on Amalek, therefore YHWH has done this thing to you this day.
19 Ary hiaraka hatolotr’ i Jehovah ho eo an-tànan’ ny Filistina ny tenanao sy ny Isiraely; ary rahampitso dia ho etỳ amiko ianao sy ny zanakao; ary ny miaramilan’ ny Isiraely koa dia hatolotr’ i Jehovah eo an-tànan’ ny Filistina.
Moreover YHWH will deliver Israel also with you into the hand of the Philistines; and tomorrow you and your sons with you will fall. YHWH will deliver the army of Israel also into the hand of the Philistines."
20 Dia lavo niampatra tamin’ ny tany niaraka tamin’ izay Saoly ka raiki-tahotra indrindra noho ny tenin’ i Samoela; sady efa tsy nisy hery intsony izy, satria tsy nihinan-kanina indray andro sy indray alina maninjitra.
Then Saul fell immediately his full length on the earth, and was terrified, because of the words of Samuel. There was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
21 Ary nankao amin’ i Saoly ravehivavy ka nahita azy ory indrindra, dia nanao taminy hoe: Indro, ny ankizivavinao nihaino ny feonao, dia nanao ny aiko tsy ho zavatra aho ka nihaino ny teninao izay nolazainao tamiko.
And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was terrified, and said to him, "Look, your servant has obeyed you, and I have put my life in my hand and have listened to your words which you spoke to me.
22 Koa ankehitriny, masìna ianao, mba henoy kosa ny tenin’ ny ankizivavinao, ary aoka aho handroso sombin-kanina kely eo anoloanao; dia hano izany mba hahatanjaka anao, raha handeha amin’ ny alehanao ianao.
Now therefore, please listen also to the voice of your servant, and let me set a morsel of bread before you; and eat, that you may have strength, when you go on your way."
23 Fa tsy nety izy, fa hoy izy: Tsy hihinana aho. Fa ny mpanompony sy ravehivavy mbola nanery azy ihany, ka dia nihaino ny feony izy. Dia nitsangana izy ka nipetraka teo am-parafara.
But he refused, and said, "I will not eat." But his servants, together with the woman, pressed him; and he listened to their voice. So he arose from the ground, and sat on the bed.
24 Ary ravehivavy nanana zanak’ omby mifahy tao an-trano; dia nandeha haingana izy ka namono izany, ary naka koba izy, dia nofetafetainy ka nendasiny ho mofo tsy misy masirasira.
The woman had a fattened calf in the house. She hurried and killed it; and she took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread of it.
25 Ary narosony teo anoloan’ i Saoly sy teo anoloan’ ny mpanompony izany; dia nihinana izy ireo, ary dia niainga ka lasa nandeha tamin’ iny alina iny ihany.
She brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
