1 Samoela 15
1 Hoe t’i Samoele amy Saole: Nirahe’ Iehovà iraho hañory azo ho mpanjaka’ ondati’e Israeleo; aa le janjiño ty feon-tsara’ Iehovà.
Afterward Samuel said vnto Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint thee King ouer his people, ouer Israel: nowe therefore obey the voyce of the wordes of the Lord.
2 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Tiahiko i nanoe’ i Amalek’ am’ Israeley, ie niatreatre aze amy lalañey te niakats’ i Mitsraime añe.
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I remember what Amalek did to Israel, howe they laide waite for the in ye way, as they came vp from Egypt.
3 Aa le akia lafao t’i Amaleke, naho mongoro o fanaña’e iabio naho ko anga’o sehanga’e; zamano ze atao lahilahy naho ampela, ty anak’ ajaja ndra te minono, ty añombe naho añondry, ty rameva vaho ty borìke.
Nowe therefore goe, and sinite Amalek, and destroy ye all that perteyneth vnto them, and haue no compassion on them, but slay both man and woman, both infant and suckling, both oxe, and sheepe, both camell, and asse.
4 Kinoi’ i Saole amy zao ondatio vaho niahe’e e Telaime ao, roe-hetse ty am-pandia le nitovoñe rai-ale boake Iehoda.
And Saul assembled ye people, and nombred them in Telaim, two hundreth thousande footemen, and ten thousand men of Iudah.
5 Niheo mb’an-drova’ i Amaleke mb’eo t’i Saole, naho niampitse am-bavatane ao.
And Saul came to a citie of Amalek, and set watch at the riuer.
6 Vaho hoe t’i Saole amo nte-Keneo: Akia, mizotsoa, hisitake o nte-Amalekeo, tsy mone ho mongoreko mindre ama’e, amy te nisohe’ areo o ana’ Israele niavotse i Mitsraimeo. Aa le nisitahe’ o nte-Keneo o nte-Amalekeo;
And Saul said vnto the Kenites, Goe, depart, and get you downe from among the Amalekites, least I destroy you with them: for ye shewed mercie to all the children of Israel, when they came vp from Egypt: and the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 vaho linafa’ i Saole o nte-Amalekeo, boake Kavilà am-piranga’o mb’e Sorey tandrife i Mitsraime.
So Saul smote the Amalekites from Hauilah as thou commest to Shur, that is before Egypt,
8 Rinambe’e veloñe ty Agage mpanjaka’ o nte-Amalekeo, fa fonga zinama’e an-dela-pibara ondatio.
And tooke Agag the King of the Amalekites aliue, and destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9 Nenga’ i Saole naho ondati’eo t’i Agage, naho ty soa amo mpirai-liao naho o mpirai-trokeo naho o vositseo vaho o vik’añondrio, toe ze raha soa iaby, ie tsy nete nimongoreñe; o sirikaeñeo naho o tsy vente’eo ty nimongore’ iareo.
But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the better sheepe, and the oxen, and the fat beasts, and the lambes, and all that was good, and they would not destroy them: but euery thing that was vile and nought worth, that they destroyed.
10 Aa le niheo amy Samoele ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Samuel, saying,
11 Aneñenako t’ie nampijadoñe i Saole ho mpanjaka; fa niambohoa’e, tsy norihe’e naho tsy nanoe’e o nandiliakoo. Nioremèñe amy zao t’i Samoele; le nirovetse amy Iehovà avao amy haleñey.
It repenteth me that I haue made Saul King: for he is turned from me, and hath not performed my commandements. And Samuel was mooued, and cryed vnto the Lord all night.
12 Ie nitroatse maraindray hanalaka amy Saole; le teo ty nisaontsy amy Samoele ty hoe: Nivotrake e Karmele t’i Saole, le nioniñe te nampijadoñe’e eo ty faniahiañe ty vata’e, le nienga boak’ao re nizotso mb’e Gilgale mb’eo.
And when Samuel arose early to meete Saul in the morning, one tolde Samuel, saying, Saul is gone to Carmel: and beholde, he hath made him there a place, from whence he returned, and departed, and is gone downe to Gilgal.
13 Niheo mb’ amy Saole mb’eo t’i Samoele; le hoe t’i Saole ama’e: Tahie’ Iehovà irehe; fa nanoeko ty linili’ Iehovà.
Then Samuel came to Saul, and Saul said vnto him. Blessed be thou of the Lord, I haue fulfilled the commandement of the Lord.
14 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Aa ino arè o fibabababan’ añondry an-tsofikoo naho ty firohafa’ o añombe tsanoñeko henaneoo?
But Samuel saide, What meaneth then the bleating of the sheepe in mine eares, and the lowing of the oxen which I heare?
15 Le hoe t’i Saole: nendese’ iareo boak’ amo nte Amalekeo, nasisa’ ondatio ty soa amo añondrio naho amo añombeo hisoroña’ iareo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; vata’e finongo’ay ty ila’e.
And Saul answered, They haue brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheepe, and of the oxen to sacrifice them vnto the Lord thy God, and the remnant haue we destroyed.
16 Le hoe t’i Samoele amy Saole: Eo hey, fa ho volañeko ama’o ty nitsarae’ Iehovà amako aniankale. Le hoe re ama’e, Misaontsia.
Againe Samuel saide to Saul, Let me tell thee what the Lord hath saide to me this night. And he said vnto him, Say on.
17 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Ndra te kede am-pihaino’o irehe, tsy lohà amo fifokoa’ Israeleo hao? ihe noriza’ Iehovà ho mpanjaka’ Israeley?
Then Samuel saide, When thou wast litle in thine owne sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel? for the Lord anointed thee King ouer Israel.
18 Nafanto’ Iehovà ama’o ty lia’o, ami’ ty hoe: Akia, zamano iaby o nte-Amaleke mpanan-kakeoo, naho ialio ampara’ te mongotse.
And the Lord sent thee on a iourney, and saide, Goe, and destroy those sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them, vntill thou destroy them.
19 Aa vaho akore te tsy nihaoñe’o ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà, te mone niambotraha’o i nikopaheñey naho nanao ty hatsivokarañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà?
Nowe wherefore hast thou not obeyed the voyce of the Lord, but hast turned to the pray, and hast done wickedly in the sight of the Lord?
20 Le hoe t’i Saole amy Samoele: Toe nihaoñeko ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà, kanao fa nandenàko i nañiraha’ Iehovà ahiy, naho naseseko atoy t’i Agage mpanjaka’ o nte-Amalekeo, vaho nimongoreko o nte-Amalekeo.
And Saul saide vnto Samuel, Yea, I haue obeyed the voyce of the Lord, and haue gone the way which the Lord sent me, and haue brought Agag the King of Amalek, and haue destroyed the Amalekites.
21 Fe nangala’ ondatio boak’ amy kinopakey ty añondry, naho añombe, ty soa amo raha nafatseo hisoroñañe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o e Gilgale.
But the people tooke of the spoyle, sheepe, and oxen, and the chiefest of the things which shoulde haue bene destroyed, to offer vnto the Lord thy God in Gilgal.
22 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Tea’ Iehovà mandikoatse ty fañaoñañe i fiarañanaña’ Iehovày hao o enga oroañeo naho o soroñeo? Toe zoke’ ty soroñe ty fañorihañe naho lombolombo’ ty solin’ añondrilahy ty fañaoñañe.
And Samuel saide, Hath the Lord as great pleasure in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as when the voyce of the Lord is obeyed? beholde, to obey is better then sacrifice, and to hearken is better then the fatte of rammes.
23 Fa hakeom-pamorehañe ty fiola naho hatsivokarañe mitrao-pahasive ty fanjeharañe. Kanao napo’o ty tsara’ Iehovà le naforintse’e ka ty maha-mpanjaka azo.
For rebellion is as the sinne of withcraft, and transgression is wickednesse and idolatrie. Because thou hast cast away the worde of the Lord, therefore hee hath cast away thee from being King.
24 Aa hoe t’i Saole amy Samoele, toe aman-kakeo iraho, nandilatse amy lili’ Iehovày naho amo saontsi’oo; toe nihembañako ondatio, naho nihaoñeko o feo’eo.
Then Saul sayde vnto Samuel, I haue sinned: for I haue transgressed the commandement of the Lord, and thy wordes, because I feared the people, and obeyed their voyce.
25 Aa ehe iheveo i tahikoy vaho mindreza fimpoly amako hitalaho am’ Iehovà.
Nowe therefore I pray thee, take away my sinne, and turne againe with mee, that I may worship the Lord.
26 Fa hoe t’i Samoele amy Saole: Tsy himpoliako; fa nado’o ty tsara’ Iehovà naho nado’ Iehovà irehe tsy ho mpanjaka’ Israele ka!
But Samuel saide vnto Saul, I will not returne with thee: for thou hast cast away the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath cast away thee, that thou shalt not be King ouer Israel.
27 Nitolike mb’eo amy zao t’i Samoele hañavelo, fe nivontitire’e i saro’ey vaho niriatse.
And as Samuel turned himselfe to goe away, he caught the lappe of his coate, and it rent.
28 Le hoe t’i Samoele ama’e: Fa rinia’ Iehovà ama’o anindroany ty fifeheañe Israele vaho natolo’e ami’ty mpiama’o, ty soa te ama’o
Then Samuel saide vnto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdome of Israel from thee this day, and hath giuen it to thy neighbour, that is better then thou.
29 vaho tsy mandañitse, tsy maneñeñe ty Enge’ Israele, ie tsy ondaty hikinañe.
For in deede the strength of Israel will not lye nor repent: for hee is not a man that hee should repent.
30 Le hoe re: Aman-kakeo iraho; fe miambane ama’o, miasia ahy añatrefa’ o roandria’ ondatikoo naho aolo’ Israele vaho mindreza fimpoly amako hitalaho am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy.
Then he saide, I haue sinned: but honour mee, I pray thee, before the Elders of my people, and before Israel, and turne againe with mee, that I may worship the Lord thy God.
31 Aa le niharo fibalik’ amy Saole t’i Samoele vaho nitalaho am’ Iehovà t’i Saole.
So Samuel turned againe, and followed Saul: and Saul worshipped the Lord.
32 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Aseseo mb’etoa t’i Agage mpanjaka’ o nte-Amalekeo. Aa le nigolengole mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Agage, fa hoe ty natao’ i Agage: Toe fa añe ty hafairan-kavilasy.
Then saide Samuel, Bring yee hither to me Agag ye King of the Amalekites: and Agag came vnto him pleasantly, and Agag saide, Truely the bitternesse of death is passed.
33 Fe hoe t’i Samoele ama’e: Manahake ty tsy nañengà’ i fibara’oy ho aman’ anake o rakembao ty hanoañe tsy ho aman’ anake ka i rene’o añivo’ o rakembao. Vaho tinoritori’ i Samoele t’i Agage añatrefa’ Iehovà e Gilgale.
And Samuel sayde, As thy sworde hath made women childlesse, so shall thy mother bee childelesse among other women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the Lord in Gilgal.
34 Nimpoly mb’e Ramà mb’eo amy zao t’i Samoele; vaho nionjo mb’ añ’anjomba’e e Gibeate-Saole mb’eo t’i Saole.
So Samuel departed to Ramah, and Saul went vp to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35 Le lia’e tsy nitilike i Saole ka t’i Samoele ampara’ ty andro nihomaha’e; nandala i Saole t’i Samoele vaho niselekaiña’ Iehovà te nanoe’e Mpanjaka’ Israele t’i Saole.
And Samuel came no more to see Saul vntill the day of his death: but Samuel mourned for Saul, and the Lord repented that hee made Saul King ouer Israel.
