1 Samoela 17
1 Natonto’ o nte-Pilistio amy zao o lahindefo’eo hañotakotake vaho nifamory e Sokò ‘Iehoda ey le nitobe añivo’ i Sokò naho i Azekà e Efe-damime ao.
Nowe the Philistims gathered their armies to battell, and came together to Shochoh, which is in Iudah, and pitched betweene Shochoh and Azekah, in the coast of Dammim.
2 Nifanontoñe naho nitobe am-bavatane’ i Elà ao t’i Saole naho o ana’ Israeleo vaho nilahatse hifañotakotak’ amo nte-Pilistio.
And Saul, and the men of Israel assembled, and pitched in the valley of Elah, and put themselues in battell araie to meete the Philistims.
3 Nitrobàke ami’ty vohitse añ’ila’e eo o nte-Pilistio vaho nizorazora am-bohitse añ’ila’e eo ka o ana’ Israeleo; añivo’ iereo ty vavatane.
And the Philistims stoode on a mountaine on the one side, and Israel stoode on a mountaine on the other side: so a valley was betweene them.
4 Niavotse an-tobe’ o nte-Pilistio ty fanalolahy atao Goliate nte-Gate, enen-kiho mitovon-jehe-pitàñe ty haabo’e.
Then came a man betweene them both out of the tents of the Philistims, named Goliath of Gath: his height was sixe cubites and an hande breadth,
5 Sabaka torisìke ty tañambone’e, nisikiñe fiaro torisìke; lime arivo sekelen-torisìke ty lanja’ i fiaro zay.
Aud had an helmet of brasse vpon his head, and a brigandine vpon him: and the weight of his brigandine was fiue thousand shekels of brasse.
6 Fikalañe torisìke ka ty an-kitso’e vaho fikalan-defon-torisìke ty an-tsoro’e.
And he had bootes of brasse vpon his legs, and a shield of brasse vpon his shoulders.
7 Hoe taram-pitenoñe i taran-defo’ey, nilanja enen-jato sekelem-by ty lohan-defo’e vaho niaolo aze ty mpijiny fikalan-defoñe.
And the shaft of his speare was like a weauers beame: and his speare head weyed sixe hundreth shekels of yron: and one bearing a shielde went before him.
8 Nijagarodoñe ey re nikoikoike amo lahindefon’ ana’ Israeleo ty hoe: Ino ty iakara’areo am-piriritañe hialy? Tsy nte-Pilisty hao iraho, naho mpitoro’ i Saole nahareo? Aa le joboño t’indaty ama’ areo hizotso mb’ amako mb’etoa.
And he stoode, and cried against the hoste of Israel, and saide vnto them, Why are yee come to set your battell in aray? am not I a Philistim, and you seruaunts to Saul? chuse you a man for you, and let him come downe to me.
9 Ie mahafialy amako, naho mahagiok’ ahy, le ho mpitoro’ areo zahay, fe naho maharekets’ aze iraho le ho mpitoro’ay nahareo.
If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, then wil we be your seruants: but if I ouercome him, and kill him, then shall yee be our seruants, and serue vs.
10 Hoe ka i nte-Pilistiy: Mañatreatre o lahindefon-te-Israeleo iraho androany, anoloro ondaty hifandraparapaha’ay.
Also the Philistim saide, I defie the hoste of Israel this day: giue mee a man, that we may fight together.
11 Ie jinanji’ i Saole naho Israele iaby ty saontsi’ i nte-Pilistiy, le nitsololòke naho nirevendreveñe.
When Saul and all Israel heard those wordes of the Philistim, they were discouraged, and greatly afraide.
12 Ie amy zao ana’ ty nte-Efrate atao Iisay nte Betlekheme e Iehoda t’i Davide, valo o ana-dahi’ indatio; ie fa bey tañ’ andro’ i Saole, nigain-kantetse am’ ondatio.
Nowe this Dauid was the sonne of an Ephrathite of Beth-lehem Iudah, named Ishai, which had eight sonnes: and this man was taken for an olde man in the daies of Saul.
13 Nomb’ añ’aly hañorike i Saole ty zoken’ ana’e telo. Ty tahina’ i telo nomb’ an-kotakotake rey le i Eliabe, tañoloñoloña’e, naho i Abinadabe nanonjohy aze, vaho i Samà ty fahatelo’e.
And the three eldest sonnes of Ishai went and followed Saul to the battel: and the names of his three sonnes that went to battell, were Eliab the Eldest, and the next Abinadab, and the thirde Shammah.
14 I Davide ty tsitso’e; nañorike i Saole añe i zoke’e telo rey.
So Dauid was the least: and the three eldest went after Saul.
15 Fe nibalike boak’ amy nindreza’e amy Saoley t’i Davide hiandraza’e o añondrin-drae’e e Betlekhemeo.
Dauid also went, but hee returned from Saul to feede his fathers sheepe in Beth-lehem.
16 Nitotoke mb’eo boa-maraiñe naho hariva, efa-polo andro, i nte-Pilistiy.
And the Philistim drew neere in the morning, and euening, and continued fourtie daies.
17 Aa hoe t’Iisay amy Davide ana’ey, Endeso henaneo ty ampemba-tono efà raike toy naho ty vonga-mofo folo retoy, le mihitrifa mb’ aman-drahalahi’o an-tobe añe;
And Ishai said vnto Dauid his sone, Take nowe for thy brethren an Ephah of this parched corne, and these ten cakes, and runne to the hoste to thy brethren.
18 naho tintino mb’ amy mpifehe arivo’ iareoy mb’eo ty habobo maike folo retoy, le añontaneo o rahalahi’oo, vaho ampitalilio ahy.
Also carie these ten fresh cheeses vnto the captaine, and looke howe thy brethren fare, and receiue their pledge.
19 Am-bavatane’ i Elà ao t’i Saole rekets’ iereo naho o ana’ Israele iaby mialy amo nte-Pilistioo.
(Then Saul and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistims)
20 Aa le nañaleñaleñe t’i Davide; nenga’e ami’ty mpiarake, o añondri’eo naho nionjomb’ amy nañiraha’ Iisaiy vaho nivotrak’ amy tobey, ie nivovotse mb’ an-kotakotake mb’eo o lahindefoñe nikoikoik’ alio.
So Dauid rose vp earely in the morning, and left the sheepe with a keeper, and tooke and went as Ishai had commanded him, and came within the compasse of the hoste: and the hoste went out in araie, and shouted in the battell.
21 Songa nandahatse lahindefoñe t’Israele naho o nte-Pilistio, lahindefo miatre-dahindefoñe.
For Israel and the Philistims had put themselues in araie, armie against armie.
22 Aa le napo’ i Davide amy mpamandron-kilankañey o enta’eo vaho nipitsike mb’amo lahindefoñeo mb’eo; ie pok’eo le nañontàne o rahalahi’eo,
And Dauid left the things, which hee bare, vnder the handes of the keeper of the cariage, and ranne into the hoste, and came, and asked his brethren howe they did.
23 nifanaontsy am’ iereo naho hehe te boak’ amy nte-Pilisty màroy i fanalolahy nte-Pilisty nte-Gatey, Goliate ty tahina’ i nitsey i entañeiy vaho tsinano’ i Davide.
And as hee talked with them, beholde, the man that was betweene the two armies, came vp, (whose name was Goliath ye Philistim of Gath) out of the armie of the Philistims, and spake such woordes, and Dauid heard them.
24 Ie nahaisak’ aze o lahindefo’ Israele iabio le nivoratsake hisitak’ ama’e, fa loho nihembañe.
And all the men of Israel, when they sawe the man, ranne away from him, and were sore afraied.
25 Le hoe o ana’ Israeleo: Nirendre’o hao ondaty pok’ atoio? Ty hampisoaña’e Israele ty nihirifa’e; ie amy zao, ze ondaty hamono aze ro hañoboña’ i mpanjakay vara hampañaleale aze naho hatolo’e aze i anak’ ampela’ey vaho ho haha’e am’ Israele ty akiban-drae’e.
For euery man of Israel saide, Sawe yee not this man that commeth vp? euen to reuile Israel is he come vp: and to him that killeth him, wil the king giue great riches, and will giue him his daughter, yea, and make his fathers house free in Israel.
26 Le hoe ty asa’ i Davide amo nijohañe marine azeo: Ino ty ho tambe’ t’indaty mahafañoho-doza amo nte-Pilisty e hoeke eio hañafaha’e ty fañinjea’e Israele? fa ia o nte-Pilisty tsy nisavareñeo te godabae’e o lahindefon’ Añahare veloñeo?
Then Dauid spake to the men that stoode with him, and sayde, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistim, and taketh away the shame from Israel? for who is this vncircumcised Philistim, that he shoulde reuile the hoste of the liuing God?
27 Le tinoi’ ondatio amo hoe zao, t’ie: Izay ty hanoañe indaty mahavono azey.
And the people answered him after this maner, saying, Thus shall it be done to the man that killeth him.
28 Jinanji’ i Eliabe, zoken-drahalahi’e, i reha’e am’ ondatioy; le nisolebotse amy Davide ty haboseha’e, vaho nanoa’e ty hoe: Ino ty nizotsoa’o mb’etoa? naho nenga’o ama’ ia o añondry tsy ampeampe an-dratraratrao? Haiko ty fiebotsebon-tro’o naho ty halo-tsere’o; ihe nizotso mb’etoa hisamba i hotakotakey.
And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake vnto the men, and Eliab was verie angrie with Dauid, and sayde, Why camest thou downe hither? and with whome hast thou left those fewe sheepe in the wildernesse? I knowe thy pride and the malice of thine heart, that thou art come downe to see the battell.
29 Hoe t’i Davide: Ino ze o nanoeko, tsy nirehak’ avao hao?
Then Dauid sayde, What haue I nowe done? Is there not a cause?
30 Le niambohoa’e naho nitolik’ ami’ty ila’e naho nañontane i hoe zay indraike; fe natoi’ ondatio aze ty manahake i teoy.
And hee departed from him into the presence of another, and spake of the same maner, and the people answered him according to the former woordes.
31 Aa ie nijanjiñeñe o saontsi’ i Davideo, le nahereñe aolo’ i Saole i enta’ey; vaho nasese mb’eo re.
And they that heard the wordes which Dauid spake, rehearsed them before Saul, which caused him to be brought.
32 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Saole; Ehe te tsy eo ty ondaty hamoe ay ty ama’e, fa hionjomb’eo o mpitoro’oo hifandrapak’ amy nte-Pilistiy.
So Dauid saide to Saul, Let no mans heart faile him, because of him: thy seruant wil goe, and fight with this Philistim.
33 Le hoe t’i Saole amy Davide: Tsy ho lefe’o ty hionjomb’ amy nte-Pilistiy hialia’o; ihe mbe tora’e, ie lahindefoñe sikal’ ami’ ty nahajalahy aze.
And Saul sayde to Dauid, Thou art not able to goe against this Philistim to fight with him: for thou art a boye, and he is a man of warre from his youth.
34 Aa hoe t’i Davide amy Saole: Niarake o añondrin-drae’eo o mpitoro’oo; le ie pok’eo ty liona ndra ty dobe nitavañe vik’añondry amy lia-raikey,
And Dauid answered vnto Saul, Thy seruant kept his fathers sheepe, and there came a lyon, and likewise a beare, and tooke a sheepe out of the flocke,
35 le nañeañe aze iraho le vinonoko naho navotsoko am-bava’e; aa ie nitroatse amako le rinambeko o volon-tsoma’eo naho linafako vaho vinonoko.
And I went out after him and smote him, and tooke it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by the beard, and smote him, and slue him.
36 Fa hene vinono’ o mpitoro’oo ty liona naho ty dobe le ho hambañe ami’ty raik’ amy zay ty nte-Pilisty tsy nisavareñe roa, oniñe t’ie nanalatse o lahindefon’ Añahare veloñeo.
So thy seruaunt slue both the lyon, and the beare: therefore this vncircumcised Philistim shall be as one of them, seeing hee hath railed on the hoste of the liuing God.
37 Tinovo’ i Davide ty hoe, Iehovà nandrombak’ ahy an-dela-tombon-diona naho an-dela-tombon-dobey, ty handrombak’ ahy an-taña’ t’i nte-Pilisty toañe. Aa hoe t’i Saole amy Davide, Akia, hitahy azo t’Iehovà.
Moreouer Dauid sayd, The Lord that deliuered me out of the pawe of the lyon, and out of the paw of the beare, he wil deliuer me out of the hand of this Philistim. Then Saul sayd vnto Dauid, Go, and the Lord be with thee.
38 Nasaro’ i Saole amy Davide o saro’eo, naombe’e an-doha’e eo i sabaka’e torisìkey vaho nanoe’e ama’e o gozò’eo.
And Saul put his rayment vpon Dauid, and put an helmet of brasse vpon his head, and put a brigandine vpon him.
39 Le nadia’ i Davide amo saro’eo i fibara’ey naho nimanea’e ty hitsontike amo tsy nañohara’eo, le hoe t’i Davide amy Saole; Tsy ho lefe i liakoy amo raha retiañe, fa tsy niventèko. Le nafaha’ i Davide irezay.
Then girded Dauid his sword vpon his rayment, and began to go: for he neuer proued it: and Dauid sayde vnto Saul, I can not goe with these: for I am not accustomed. wherefore Dauid put them off him.
40 Rinambe’e am-pità’e i kobai’ey, naho nijoboñe vato lime malama an-torahañ’ ao vaho najo’e amy mozete’ey, toe an-kotra’e ao; tam-pità’e i pile’ey; le nitotofe’e i nte-Pilistiy.
Then tooke he his staffe in his hand, and chose him fiue smoothe stones out of a brooke, and put them in his shepheards bagge or skrippe, and his sling was in his hand, and he drewe neere to the Philistim.
41 Niheo mb’amy Davide mb’eo i nte-Pilistiy, niharine, niaolo aze i mpinday fikala’ey.
And the Philistim came and drew neere vnto Dauid, and the man that bare the shielde went before him.
42 Jinilojilo i nte-Pilistiy le naharendreke i Davide naho nitorifiha’e fa ajalahy mena, soa-vintañe.
Now when the Philistim looked about and saw Dauid, he disdeined him: for he was but yong, ruddie, and of a comely face.
43 Le hoe i nte-Pilistiy amy Davide: Amboa v’o aho te harinea’o an-kobaiñe? Le nozoñe’ i nte-Pilistiy amo ‘ndrahare’eo t’i Davide.
And the Philistim sayde vnto Dauid, Am I a dog, that thou commest to me with staues? And the Philistim cursed Dauid by his gods.
44 Le hoe i nte-Pilistiy amy Davide: Mb’amako mb’etoa le hatoloko amo voron-tiokeo o nofo’oo naho amo bibin-kivokeo.
And the Philistim sayd to Dauid, Come to me, and I will giue thy flesh vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beastes of the field.
45 Le hoe t’i Davide amy nte-Pilistiy: Itotoha’o am-pibara naho lefoñe vaho ana-defoñe, f’ihe ty harivoeko ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ o lahindefo’ Israele sigìhe’oo.
Then sayd Dauid to the Philistim, Thou commest to me with a sword, and with a speare, and with a shield, but I come to thee in the Name of the Lord of hostes, the God of the hoste of Israel, whom thou hast rayled vpon.
46 Hatolo’ Iehovà an-tañako irehe te anito; le ho zevoñeko, naho ho kitsiheko ama’o ty añambone’o vaho hatoloko amo voron-tiokeo naho amo bibin-kivokeo anito o lolo’ i valobohò nte-Pilistiio; hahafohina’ ty tane bey toy te aman’ Añahare ty e Israele ao.
This day shall the Lord close thee in mine hand, and I shall smite thee, and take thine head from thee, and I wil giue the carkeises of the hoste of the Philistims this daye vnto the foules of the heauen, and to the beasts of the earth, that all the world may know that Israel hath a God,
47 Le ho fohi’ ze hene ondaty vory atoy te maharombake tsy amam-pibara tsy aman-defoñe t’Iehovà, toe a’ Iehovà ty hotakotake, fa natolo’e an-taña’ay nahareo.
And that all this assembly may know, that the Lord saueth not with sworde nor with speare (for the battel is the Lords) and he will giue you into our handes.
48 Niongake le nimb’eo i nte-Pilistiy niharine amy Davide, le nipitsike ty lay mb’ amo mpiatreatreo t’i Davide higaoñe amy nte-Pilistiy,
And when the Philistim arose to come and drawe neere vnto Dauid, Dauid hasted and ran to fight against the Philistim.
49 le nampijom-pitàñ’ an-kotra’e ao t’i Davide nañakatse vato, naho nipilere’e amy pile’ey le nipelañe am-pela-handri’ i nte-Pilistiy i vatoy le nilentek’ am-panda’e ao, vaho nitafahohoke re, laharañe an-tane.
And Dauid put his hande in his bagge, and tooke out a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistim in his forehead, that the stone sticked in his forehead, and he fell groueling to the earth.
50 Aa le naozatse te amy Pilistiy t’i Davide am-piletse naho vato. Zinevo’e vaho vinono’e i nte-Pilistiy ndra te tsy amam-pibara ty fità’ i Davide.
So Dauid ouercame the Philistim with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistim, and slew him, when Dauid had no sword in his hand.
51 Nilay t’i Davide nijohañe amy nte-Pilistiy eo naho rinambe’e ty fibara’e naho napontsoa’e amy traño’ey naho finatsi’e, nampikitsike i añambone’ey. Aa ie naharendreke te mate i fanalolahi’ey o nte-Pilistio, le nitriban-day.
Then Dauid ranne, and stood vpon the Philistim, and tooke his sword and drew it out of his sheath, and slewe him, and cut off his head therewith. So whe the Philistims saw, that their champion was dead, they fled.
52 Niongak’ amy zao o lahindefo’ Israele naho Iehodao, nampipoña-koikoin’ aly vaho nañoridañe o nte-Pilistio pake Gate naho ampara’ o lalambei’ i Ekroneo. Nifitak’ amy lalañey pake Saaraime naho sikal’amy Gate naho i Ekrone o nte-Pilisty nifereo.
And the men of Israel and Iudah arose, and shouted, and followed after the Philistims, vntill they came to the valley, and vnto the gates of Ekron: and the Philistims fell downe wounded by the way of Shaaraim, euen to Gath and to Ekron.
53 Ie nimpoly amy fañoridà’ iareo o nte-Pilistioy o ana’ Israeleo le fonga kinopa’ iareo ty vara an-tobe’ o nte-Pilistio.
And the children of Israel returned from pursuing the Philistims, and spoyled their tents.
54 Rinambe i Davide ty añambone’ i nte-Pilistiy, vaho nendese’e mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo, fe nahaja’e an-kiboho’e ao o fikala’ i Goliateo.
And Dauid tooke the head of ye Philistim, and brought it to Ierusalem, and put his armour in his tent.
55 Ie niisa’ i Saole t’i Davide nionjo hifañatrek’ amy nte-Pilistiy, le nañontanea’e t’i Abnere, mpifehe’ i màroy: Ana’ ia o ajalahio? aa hoe ty natoi’ i Abnere: Amy te veloñe ty arofo’o ry mpanjaka, toe tsy fantako.
When Saul sawe Dauid go forth against the Philistim, he sayd vnto Abner the captaine of his hoste, Abner, whose sonne is this yong man? and Abner answered, As thy soule liueth, O King, I can not tell.
56 Hoe i mpanjakay, Rendreho te ana’ ia i ajalahiy.
Then the King sayde, Enquire thou whose sonne this yong man is.
57 Ie nibalik’ amy nañohofa’e loza amy nte-Pilistiy t’i Davide le nendese’ i Abnere mb’amy Saole mb’eo, am-pità’e ty loha’ i nte-Pilistiy.
And when Dauid was returned from the slaughter of the Philistim, then Abner tooke him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistim in his hand.
58 Nañontane aze t’i Saole: O ajalahio, ana’ ia v’iheo? Ana’ i mpitoro’o Iisay nte-Betelekemey, hoe t’i Davide.
And Saul sayde to him, Whose sonne art thou, thou yong man? And Dauid answered, I am the sonne of thy seruant Ishai the Bethlehemite.
