< 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.
And Samuel said unto Saul, It was, me, Yahweh sent to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel, —now, therefore, hearken thou to the voice of Yahweh’s words.
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 Yahweh of hosts, I have well considered what Amalek did unto Israel—how he lay in wait for him in the way, when he came up out of 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.
Now, go and smite Amalek, and devote ye to destruction all that he hath, and spare him not, —but thou shalt slay both man and woman, both child and suckling, both ox and sheep, both camel and ass.
4 Kinoi’ i Saole amy zao ondatio vaho niahe’e e Telaime ao, roe-hetse ty am-pandia le nitovoñe rai-ale boake Iehoda.
So then Saul called together the people, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, —and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 Niheo mb’an-drova’ i Amaleke mb’eo t’i Saole, naho niampitse am-bavatane ao.
And Saul came as far as the city of Amalek, —and stirred up strife in the ravine.
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;
Then said Saul unto the Kenites—Go, depart, get you down out of the midst of the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them, yet, ye, dealt in lovingkindness, with all the sons of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed out of the midst of the Amalekites.
7 vaho linafa’ i Saole o nte-Amalekeo, boake Kavilà am-piranga’o mb’e Sorey tandrife i Mitsraime.
And Saul smote Amalek, —from Havilah, till thou enterest Shur, which is over against Egypt.
8 Rinambe’e veloñe ty Agage mpanjaka’ o nte-Amalekeo, fa fonga zinama’e an-dela-pibara ondatio.
And he took Agag, king of Amalek, alive, —but, all the people, devoted he to destruction at 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 best of the sheep and the oxen and the lambs, also the fatlings, and all that was good, and would not devote them to destruction, —but, all the cattle that was contemptible and diseased, that, devoted they to destruction.
10 Aa le niheo amy Samoele ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto 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.
I am grieved that I made Saul to be king, for he hath turned back from following me, and, my words, hath he not established. And it was vexing to Samuel, so that he made outcry unto Yahweh, all the 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 Samuel rose early to meet Saul, in the morning, and it was told Samuel, saying—Saul having come to Carmel, and lo! having set him up a sign, hath gone round, and passed over, and descended 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.
And Samuel came unto Saul, —and Saul said unto him—Blessed, be thou by Yahweh: I have established the word of Yahweh.
14 Le hoe t’i Samoele: Aa ino arè o fibabababan’ añondry an-tsofikoo naho ty firohafa’ o añombe tsanoñeko henaneoo?
And Samuel said, What then is this bleating of sheep, in mine ears, —and the lowing of oxen, which I can hear?
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.
Then said Saul—From the Amalekites, have they brought them in; in that the people spared the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto Yahweh thy God, —but, the rest, have we devoted to destruction.
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.
Then said Samuel unto Saul, Stay, and let me tell thee, that which Yahweh hath spoken unto me, this night. And he said to him—Speak.
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?
And Samuel said, Was it not, when, little, thou wast in thine own eyes, that thou wast made, head of the tribes of Israel, —and that Yahweh anointed thee to be king over 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.
So then Yahweh sent thee on a journey, —and said—Go, and devastate to destruction, the sinners—the Amalekites, and make war against them, until they have consumed 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?
Wherefore, then, didst thou not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh, —but didst rush upon the spoil, and do that which was wrong in the sight of Yahweh?
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 said unto Samuel—As indeed I have hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh, and have been on the journey on which Yahweh sent me, —and have brought in Agag, king of Amalek, and, the Amalekites, have I devoted to destruction.
21 Fe nangala’ ondatio boak’ amy kinopakey ty añondry, naho añombe, ty soa amo raha nafatseo hisoroñañe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o e Gilgale.
And the people took, of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things so devoted, —to sacrifice unto Yahweh 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.
Then said Samuel—Doth that which is pleasing unto Yahweh consist in ascending-offerings and sacrifices, So much as in hearkening unto the voice of Yahweh? Lo! to hearken, is, better, than, sacrifice. And, to give heed, than, the fat of rams;
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, as the sin of divination, is, rebelliousness, —and, as transgression with household gods, is, stubbornness, —Because thou hast rejected the word of Yahweh, therefore hath he rejected 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 said Saul unto Samuel—I have sinned; for I have transgressed the bidding of Yahweh, and thy words, —for I feared the people, and hearkened unto their voice.
25 Aa ehe iheveo i tahikoy vaho mindreza fimpoly amako hitalaho am’ Iehovà.
Now, therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, —and turn again with me, that I may bow down unto Yahweh.
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!
And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not turn again with thee, —Because thou hast rejected the word of Yahweh, therefore hath Yahweh rejected thee from being king over Israel.
27 Nitolike mb’eo amy zao t’i Samoele hañavelo, fe nivontitire’e i saro’ey vaho niriatse.
And, when Samuel turned about to go away, then laid he hold of the skirt of his robe, and it was 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
And Samuel said unto him, Yahweh hath rent the kingdom of Israel from off thee, to-day, —and will give it unto a neighbour of thine, who is better than thou.
29 vaho tsy mandañitse, tsy maneñeñe ty Enge’ Israele, ie tsy ondaty hikinañe.
Moreover also, the Eminence of Israel, will not lie, neither will he repent, —For no, iron of earth, is, he, to 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 said: I have sinned, Now, honour me, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, —and turn again with me, then will I bow down unto Yahweh thy God.
31 Aa le niharo fibalik’ amy Saole t’i Samoele vaho nitalaho am’ Iehovà t’i Saole.
So then Samuel turned again, after Saul—and Saul bowed down unto Yahweh.
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 said Samuel—Bring ye near unto me—Agag, king of Amalek, And Agag came unto him, in fetters. Then said Agag, Surely, terrible, is the bitterness of death!
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 said, As women have been made childless by thy sword, So, childless among women, shall be, thine own mother. And Samuel cut Agag asunder before Yahweh, 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.
Then Samuel departed unto Ramah, —but, Saul, went up unto his own house, at 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 did no more see Saul, until the day of his death, for Samuel pined for Saul, —but, Yahweh, was grieved that he had made Saul king over Israel.
