1 Samoela 13
1 Nifehe rai-taoñe t’i Saole, aa ie nifehe Israele roe taoñe,
Saul [is] a son of [[thirty]] years in his reigning, and he has reigned over Israel [forty]-two years,
2 le jinobo’ i Saole ty lahilahy telo arivo boake Israele ao. Nindre amy Saole e Mikmase naho ambohibohi’ i Betele ty ro’arivo, naho nindre am’ Ionatane e Gibeate-Beniamine ty arivo; songa nirahe’e mb’ an-kiboho’e añe ze ondaty sisa.
then Saul chooses for himself three thousand [men] out of Israel; and two thousand are with Saul in Michmash, and in the hill-country of Beth-El; and one thousand have been with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin; and he has sent each one of the remnant of the people to his tents.
3 Pinao’ Ionatane amy zao ty mpirai-lian-dahin-defoñe e Geba; le jinanji’ o nte Pilistio. Aa le pinopò’ i Saole amy tane iabiy i antsivay nanao ty hoe: mijanjiña ry nte-Evre.
And Jonathan strikes the garrison of the Philistines which [is] in Geba, and the Philistines hear, and Saul has blown with a horn through all the land, saying, “Let the Hebrews hear.”
4 Aa le jinanji’ Israele iaby te zinevo’ i Saole i mpirai-lian-te-Pilistiy, naho te mitrotròtse amo nte-Pilistio t’Israele. Aa le nifanontoñe amy Saole e Gilgale añe ondatio.
And all Israel have heard, saying, “Saul has struck the garrison of the Philistines,” and also, “Israel has been abhorred by the Philistines”; and the people are called after Saul to Gilgal.
5 Nifamory ka o nte-Pilistio hialy amy Israele, sarete telo-ale naho mpiningi-tsoavala eneñ’ arivo naho ondaty mira amo faseñe añ’ olon-driakeo ty hamaro’e ro nionjom-beo nitobe e Mikmase atiñana’ i Bete-Avene ey.
And the Philistines have been gathered to fight with Israel; thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and a people as the sand which [is] on the seashore for multitude; and they come up and encamp in Michmash, east of Beth-Aven.
6 Nioni’ o ana’ Israeleo te niampoheke—toe nalovilovy ondatio—sata’ ondatio ty nietak’ an-dakato, an-drongoñe, am-bato, an-kadaha, vaho an-koboñe ao.
And the men of Israel have seen that they are distressed, that the people have been oppressed, and the people hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
7 Nitsake Iordaney ka ty ila’ o nte Evreo mb’an-tane Gade e Gilgale añe; fe mbe te Gilgale t’i Saole, vaho nititititike iaby o mpiama’eo.
And Hebrews have passed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; and Saul [is] yet in Gilgal, and all the people have trembled after him.
8 Nihenekenek’ ao fito andro re ty amy namantaña’ i Samoeley; fe tsy niavy e Gilgale t’i Samoele; le nihabaratsiak’ ama’e ondatio.
And he waits seven days, according to the appointment with Samuel, and Samuel has not come to Gilgal, and the people are scattered from off him.
9 Aa hoe t’i Saole: Endeso mb’amako mb’etoa i enga hisoroñañey naho o engam-panintsiñañeo; vaho nisoroña’e o engan-koroañeo.
And Saul says, “Bring the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings near to me”; and he causes the burnt-offering to ascend.
10 Aa ie vaho nihenefe’e soroñe i engan-koroañe rey, hehe te pok’eo t’i Samoele; naho nimb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Saole hifanalaka ama’e hañontane aze.
And it comes to pass at his completing to cause the burnt-offering to ascend, that behold, Samuel has come, and Saul goes out to meet him, to bless him;
11 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Ino o nanoe’oo? le hoe t’i Saole: Ie nitreako te niparaitak’ amako ondatio naho tsy niheo mb’eo irehe amy nifotoañañey, naho te mifanontoñe haname i Mikmase o nte-Pilistio,
and Samuel says, “What have you done?” And Saul says, “Because I saw that the people were scattered from off me, and you had not come at the appointment of the days, and the Philistines are gathered to Michmash,
12 le nataoko ty hoe: Hiambotrak’ amako e Gilgale amy zao o nte-Pilistio vaho mb’e tsy nihalaliako ìsoke am’Iehovà; aa le nanji-batan-draho nañenga i soroñey.
and I say, Now the Philistines come down to me to Gilgal, and I have not appeased the face of YHWH; and I force myself, and cause the burnt-offering to ascend.”
13 Aa hoe t’i Samoele amy Saole: Nanao hadagolàñe; tsy nambena’o ty lili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, i nandilia’e azoy; ie ho najado’ Iehovà ho nainai’e donia i fifehea’o Israeley.
And Samuel says to Saul, “You have been foolish; you have not kept the command of your God YHWH, which He commanded you, for now YHWH had established your kingdom over Israel for all time;
14 Fe tsy hijadoñe i fifehea’oy; fa nitsoeke ondaty mindre arofo ama’e t’Iehovà vaho fa tinendre’ Iehovà ho mpifehe ondati’eo, amy te tsy nambena’o i nandilia’ Iehovà azoy.
and now, your kingdom does not stand, YHWH has sought [for] a man for Himself according to His own heart, and YHWH charges him for leader over His people, for you have not kept that which YHWH commanded you.”
15 Niongak’ amy zao t’i Samoele, nionjo boake Gilgale mb’e Gibeate-Beniamine. Niahe’ i Saole ondaty ama’eo te ni-enen-jato varañe.
And Samuel rises, and goes up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin; and Saul inspects the people who are found with him, about six hundred men,
16 le nañialo e Gibeate-Beniamine t’i Saole naho Ionatane ana’ey naho ondaty ama’eo; vaho nitobe e Mikmase ka o nte-Pilistio.
and Saul, and his son Jonathan, and the people who are found with them, are abiding in Gibeah of Benjamin, and the Philistines have encamped in Michmash.
17 Niakatse an-tobe’ o nte-Pilistio amy zao ty mpijoy am-pirimboña’e telo: ty mpirai-lia’e raike nitsile mb’amy lala-migodañe mb’e Ofrà, mb’an-tane’ i Soale mb’eo;
And the destroyer goes out from the camp of the Philistines—three detachments: one detachment turns to the way of Ophrah, to the land of Shual,
18 nitolike mb’ amy Bete-korone ka ty mpirai-lia’e raike; vaho nitolike mb’añ’ efe-tane ahatalakesañe ty vava-tane Zeboime mb’ am-patram-bey mb’eo ty mpirai-lia’e raike.
and one detachment turns the way of Beth-Horon, and one detachment turns the way of the border which is looking on the Valley of the Zeboim, toward the wilderness.
19 Ie amy zao, tsy amam-panefe ndra raike ty an-tane Israele ao; ami’ty nanoe’ o nte-Pilistio ty hoe: Hera hanefe fibara ndra lefoñe o nte-Evreo,
And a craftsman is not found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, “Lest the Hebrews make sword or spear”;
20 fa nizotso mb’amo nte-Pilisty iabio ze hene ana’ Israele hanioñe ty lelan-dasarý naho ty fangaly, naho ty fekoñe, vaho ty fibìra.
and all Israel goes down to the Philistines, to each sharpen his plowshare, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock;
21 Nitake roe-ampaha-telo’ ty sekele hanañira’e ty lelan-dasarý ndra ty fitrabahan-tane; naho ty ampaha-telo’e ho a o fekoñeo; vaho ho ami’ty fanañiran-kitro.
and there has been the file for mattocks, and for coulters, and for three-pronged rakes, and for the axes, and to set up the goads.
22 Aa ie amy andron-kotakotakey, leo fibara ndra lefoñe raike tsy nizoeñe am-pità’ o mpiamy Saole naho Ionataneo; naho tsy i nizoeñe amy Saole naho Ionataney avao.
And it has been, in the day of battle, that there has not been found a sword and spear in the hand of any of the people who [are] with Saul and with Jonathan—but it is found with Saul and with his son Jonathan.
23 Aa le nionjomb’ an-kebam-bohi’ i Mikmase mb’eo ty raik’ amo mpirai-lia’ o nte-Pilistioo.
And the station of the Philistines goes out to the passage of Michmash.
