1 Samoela 4
1 Ary tonga tany amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra ny tenin’ i Samoela. Dia nandeha ny Isiraely hiady tamin’ ny Filistina ka nitoby teo anilan’ i Ebenezera; ary ny Filistina kosa nitoby tany Afeka.
And it came [the] word of Samuel to all Israel and it went out Israel to meet [the] Philistines for battle and they encamped at Eben-ezer and [the] Philistines they encamped at Aphek.
2 Dia nilahatra ny Filistina hiady amin’ ny Isiraely; ary rehefa raikitra ny ady, dia resin’ ny Filistina ny Isiraely, ka nahafatesany tokony ho efatra arivo lahy ny miaramila nilahatra tany an-tsaha.
And they deployed [the] Philistines to meet Israel and it spread out the battle and it was defeated Israel before [the] Philistines and they struck down in the battle line in the field about four thousand man.
3 Ary rehefa tonga tany an-toby ny olona, dia hoy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely: Nahoana no, namely antsika teo anoloan’ ny Filistina Jehovah androany? Andeha halaintsika avy any Silo ho eto amintsika ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, ka raha tonga eto amintsika izany, dia hamonjy antsika amin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalontsika.
And it came the people into the camp and they said [the] elders of Israel why? has he defeated us Yahweh this day before [the] Philistines let us bring to ourselves from Shiloh [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh so it may come in midst our so it may deliver us from [the] hand of enemies our.
4 Dia naniraka nankany Silo ny olona haka ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Izay mipetraka amin’ ny kerobima; ary tao Silo, teo amin’ ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ Andriamanitra, izy mirahalahy zanak’ i Ely, dia Hofinia sy Finehasa.
And it sent the people Shiloh and they brought from there [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh of hosts [who] sits the cherubim and [were] there [the] two [the] sons of Eli with [the] ark of [the] covenant of God Hophni and Phinehas.
5 Ary rehefa tonga teo an-toby ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, dia nihoby mafy ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, ka dia nanako ny tany.
And it was when came [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh into the camp and they shouted all Israel a shout great and it was stirred the ground.
6 Ary rehefa ren’ ny Filistina ny hoby, dia hoy izy; Inona re izany hoby mafy any an-tobin’ ny Hebreo izany? Ary fantany fa tonga ao an-toby ny fiaran’ i Jehovah.
And they heard [the] Philistines [the] sound of the shout and they said what? [is] [the] sound of the shout great this in [the] camp of the Hebrews and they knew that [the] ark of Yahweh it had come into the camp.
7 Dia raiki-tahotra ny Filistina ka nanao hoe: Andriamanitra no tonga ao an-toby. Ary hoy koa izy: Mahita loza isika! fa tsy mbola nisy toy izao.
And they were afraid the Philistines for they said he has come a god into the camp and they said woe! to us for not it has been like this yesterday three days ago.
8 Mahita loza isika! Iza no hamonjy antsika amin’ ny tànan’ ireo andriamanitra mahery ireo? Ireo no andriamanitra izay namely ny Egyptiana tamin’ ny kapoka rehetra tany an-efitra.
Woe! to us who? will he deliver us from [the] hand of the gods mighty these these they [are] the gods who struck Egypt with every plague in the wilderness.
9 Mahereza, ary aoka hitomban-dahy ianareo, ry Filistina, fandrao hanompo ny Hebreo ianareo tahaka ny nanompoany anareo; misehoa ho lehilahy ianareo, ka miadia.
Show yourselves strong and become men O Philistines lest you should serve the Hebrews just as they have served you and you will become men and you will fight.
10 Ary niady ny Filistina, dia resy ny Isiraely, ka samy nandositra ho any an-dainy avy izy rehetra, ary be dia be no maty, dia lehilahy telo alina mandeha an-tongotra tamin’ ny Isiraely no niampatrampatra.
And they fought [the] Philistines and it was defeated Israel and they fled each man to own tents his and it was the slaughter great exceedingly and he fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldier[s].
11 Dia lasan-ko babo ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra, ary maty izy mirahalahy zanak’ i Ely, dia Hofinia sy Finehasa.
And [the] ark of God it was taken and [the] two [the] sons of Eli they died Hophni and Phinehas.
12 Ary nisy lehilahy Benjamita anankiray nihazakazaka avy tany tamin’ ny miaramila ka tonga tao Silo androtrizay ihany, ary triatra ny akanjony, sady nihosin-tany ny lohany.
And he ran [the] man of Benjamin from the battle line and he came Shiloh on the day that and garments his [were] torn and earth [was] on head his.
13 Ary raha tonga izy, indro, Ely nipetraka teo amin’ ny sezany ka nitazana teo amoron-dalana, fa niemponempona ny fony noho ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra. Ary nony tonga tao an-tanàna ralehilahy ka nilaza, dia nidradradradra ny tao an-tanàna rehetra.
And he came and there! Eli [was] sitting on the seat ([the] side of *Q(K)*) [the] road watching for it was heart his trembling on [the] ark of God and the man he came to tell in the city and it cried out all the city.
14 Ary rehefa ren’ i Ely ny feo midradradradra, dia hoy izy: Inona izao feo mitabataba izao? Ary ilay lehilahy nanatona faingana ka nilaza tamin’ i Ely.
And he heard Eli [the] sound of the outcry and he said what? [is] [the] sound of the uproar this and the man he hurried and he came and he told to Eli.
15 Ary efa valo amby sivi-folo taona Ely tamin’ izay, sady efa pahina ny masony, ka tsy nahita izy.
And Eli [was] a son of ninety and eight year[s] and eyes his it was set and not he was able to see.
16 Ary hoy ilay lehilahy tamin’ i Ely: Izaho ilay avy tany an-tafika, ary androany ihany no nandosirako niala tamin’ ny miaramila. Ary hoy izy: Nanao ahoana izay tany, anaka?
And he said the man to Eli I [am] the [one who] comes from the battle line and I from the battle line I have fled this day and he said what? was it the word O son my.
17 Dia namaly ilay nitondra teny ka nanao hoe: Nandositra teo anoloan’ ny Filistina ny Isiraely, ka be dia be no maty, ary izy mirahalahy zanakao, Hofinia sy Finehasa, mba maty koa, sady lasan-ko babo ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra.
And he answered the bearer of news and he said it has fled Israel before [the] Philistines and also a slaughter great it has been among the people and also [the] two sons your they have died Hophni and Phinehas and [the] ark of God it has been taken.
18 Ary nony nilaza ny amin’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra izy, dia lavo nitsilany niala tamin’ ny sezany teo anilan’ ny vavahady Ely, ka folaka ny vozony, dia maty izy, satria efa antitra sady mavesatra. Ary efa nitsara ny Isiraely efa-polo taona izy.
And it was when brought to remembrance he - [the] ark of God and he fell from on the seat backwards behind - [the] side of the gate and it was broken neck his and he died for he was old the man and heavy and he he had judged Israel forty year[s].
19 Ary ny vinantoni-vavy, vadin’ i Finehasa, nanan’ anaka ka efa ho teraka; koa nony reny fa lasan-ko babo ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra, sady maty avokoa ny rafozany sy ny vadiny, dia nitanondrika izy ka narary nihetsi-jaza, fa efa ho teraka.
And daughter-in-law his [the] wife of Phinehas [was] pregnant to give birth and she heard the report concerning [the] being taken of [the] ark of God and he had died father-in-law her and husband her and she bowed down and she gave birth for they turned on her pangs her.
20 Ary rehefa nadiva hiala aina izy, dia niteny ireo vehivavy nitsangana teo anilany ka nanao taminy hoe: Aza matahotra, fa velon-dahy ianao. Fa tsy namaly na nihaino izany izy.
And about [the] time of dying she and they spoke those [who] were standing over her may not you be afraid for a son you have borne and not she answered and not she set heart her.
21 Dia nataony hoe Ikaboda ny anaran’ ny zaza; fa hoy izy: Afaka ny voninahitry ny Isiraely, satria efa lasan-ko babo ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra, sady efa maty koa ny rafozany sy ny vadiny.
And she called the lad I-chabod saying it has gone into exile glory from Israel because of [the] being taken of [the] ark of God and because of father-in-law her and husband her.
22 Ary hoy izy: Afaka tamin’ ny Isiraely ny voninahitra, fa lasan-ko babo ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra.
And she said it has gone into exile glory from Israel for it has been taken [the] ark of God.
