1 Kwasekusithi ngolunye usuku, uJonathani indodana kaSawuli wathi emfaneni othwala izikhali zakhe: Woza sichaphele ebuthweni lenqaba yamaFilisti elingaphetsheya ngale. Kodwa kamtshelanga uyise.

2 USawuli wayehlala-ke ephethelweni leGibeya ngaphansi kwesihlahla sepomegranati esiseMigironi; labantu ababelaye babengaphose babe ngamadoda angamakhulu ayisithupha;
Te vaengah Saul tah Gibeah bawt ah, Migron kah tale thing hmuiah ngol tih a taengkah pilnam he hlang ya rhuk tluk omuh.
3 loAhiya, indodana kaAhitubi, umfowabo kaIkabodi, indodana kaPhinehasi, indodana kaEli, umpristi weNkosi eShilo, wayembethe i-efodi. Kodwa abantu babengazi ukuthi uJonathani uhambile.
Te vaengah hnisui aka bai tih Shiloh ah BOEIPA kah khosoih la aka om Eli capa Phinekha koca Ikhabod mana Ahitub capa Ahijah khaw om. Tedae Jonathan a caeh te pilnam loh a ming moenih.
4 Laphakathi kwemikhandlo, lapho uJonathani ayezama ukuchapha khona ukuya ebuthweni lenqaba yamaFilisti, kwakuledwala elicijileyo nganeno, ledwala elicijileyo ngaphetsheya; njalo ibizo lelinye laliyiBozezi, lebizo lelinye laliyiSene.
Philisti rhaltawt hmuen paan ham te Jonathan loh a laklo kah lamkai longah a mae. Te vaengah rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om tih rhalvangan khat benah thaelpang cangngok la om bal. Pakhat a ming ah Bozez tih pakhat tah a ming ah Seneh ni.

Lungto cangngok pakhat te tlangpuei kah Mikmash imdan ah, pakhat te tuithim kah Geba imdan ah tungpuei la pai.
6 UJonathani wasesithi emfaneni othwala izikhali zakhe: Woza sichaphele ebuthweni lenqaba elalaba abangasokanga; mhlawumbe iNkosi izasisebenzela, ngoba kakulasenqabelo eNkosini ukusindisa ngabanengi loba ngabalutshwana.
Jonathan loh a hno phuei cadong te, “Cet sih lamtah, pumdul rhoek kah rhaltawt hmuen ke paan sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih ham a saii khaming. A yol a yet neh khang ham te BOEIPA taengah kanghalhkung a om moenih.
7 Umthwali wezikhali zakhe wasesithi kuye: Yenza konke okusenhliziyweni yakho; phambuka, khangela ngilawe njengokwenhliziyo yakho.
Te dongah a hno phuei loh, “Na thinko ah aka om te tah boeih saii ngawn. Na ngaih bangla vikvuek uh ngawn, na thinko kah bangla nang taengah ka om ngawn he,” a ti nah.
8 UJonathani wasesithi: Khangela, sizachaphela kulabobantu sizibonakalise kibo.
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Mamih rhoi loh hlang te m'paan coeng tih amih taengla m'phoe pawn ni he.
9 Uba bekhuluma njalo kithi besithi: Manini mpo, size sifike kini; sizakuma-ke endaweni yethu, singenyukeli kibo.
Tedae mamih rhoi taengah ni, “Nangmih taengla kaimih ka pawk hil duem rhoi dae,” a ti uh atah mah paihmuen ah pai sih lamtah amih taengla cet boel sih,” a ti nah.
10 Kodwa uba bekhuluma njalo kithi besithi: Yenyukelani kithi; sizakwenyuka-ke, ngoba iNkosi ibanikele esandleni sethu; lalokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kithi.
Tedae, “Kaimih taengla ha luei laeh,” a ti uh van atah luei van sih. Amih te BOEIPA loh mamih kut dongah m'paek coeng dongah tahae kah he mamih ham miknoek la om coeng,” a ti nah.
11 Ngakho bobabili bazibonakalisa ebuthweni lenqaba yamaFilisti; amaFilisti asesithi: Khangelani, amaHebheru asephuma emilindini abecatshe kiyo.
Te phoeiah amih rhoi khaw Philisti rhaltawt hmuen taengla a moe rhoi hatah Philisti rhoek loh, “Aka thuh uh tangtae Hebrew loh a khui lamkah ha moe ke,” a ti uh.
12 Amadoda ebutho lenqaba asephendula oJonathani lomthwali wezikhali zakhe athi: Yenyukelani kithi, sizalitshengisa ulutho. UJonathani wasesithi kumthwali wezikhali zakhe: Yenyuka ungilandele, ngoba iNkosi iwanikele esandleni sikaIsrayeli.
Te dongah rhaltawt hlang rhoek loh Jonathan neh a hno phuei te a doo tih, “Kaimih taengla ha luei rhoi lamtah nangmih rhoi te olka kan thuituen eh?,” a ti nah. Te dongah a hno phuei te Jonathan loh, “Kai hnukah halo laeh, amih he BOEIPA loh Israel kut dongah a paek coeng,” a ti nah.
13 UJonathani wasekhwela ngezandla zakhe langenyawo zakhe, lomthwali wezikhali zakhe emva kwakhe. Asesiwa phambi kukaJonathani, lomthwali wezikhali zakhe wawabulala emva kwakhe.
Jonathan te a kut a kho neh a luei vaengah a hno phuei loh a hnukah a rhoi van. Te vaengah Jonathan mikhmuh kah aka cungku rhoek te a hno phuei loh a hnukah a ngawn pah.
14 Ukutshaya kokuqala atshaya ngakho uJonathani lomthwali wezikhali zakhe kwakungaba phose ngamadoda angamatshumi amabili, ensimini elingana lengxenye yendima yesipani.
Jonathan neh a hno phuei loh a tloek lamhma dongah khohmuen kah rhoi hma ngancawn ah hlang pakul tluk tah hmasoe la om.
15 Kwasekusiba khona ukuthuthumela enkambeni, egangeni, laphakathi kwabantu bonke; ibutho lenqaba labachithi labo bathuthumela, lomhlaba wanyikinyeka, kwasekusiba yikuthuthumela okukhulu.
Te vaengah lambong khuiah khaw, lohma ah khaw, rhaltawt hmuen kah pilnam boeih khuiah khaw thuennah om. Amih a lakueng uh vaengah diklai te tlai tih Pathen taengkah thuennah bangla a om pah.
16 Abalindi bakaSawuli eGibeya yakoBhenjamini basebebona ukuthi, khangela, ixuku lancibilika lihamba litshayelana phansi.
Benjamin Gibeah kah Saul kah rhaltawt rhoek loh a sawt uh vaengah tah hlangping te tarha paci tih he ben he bang la a caeh pah.
17 USawuli wasesithi ebantwini ababelaye: Ake libale, libone ukuthi ngubani osuke kithi. Kwathi sebebalile, khangela, uJonathani lomthwali wezikhali zakhe babengekho.
Te dongah Saul loh a taengkah pilnam te, “So uh lah, mamih taeng lamkah aka cet rhoek te thuep uh lah,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Jonathan neh a hno phuei te hah tarha a tae uh.
18 USawuli wasesithi kuAhiya: Letha lapha umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Ngoba umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu ngalolosuku wawukubantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Tekah khohnin ah Pathen kah thingkawng he Israel ca rhoek taengla a om coeng dongah Ahijah te Saul loh, “Pathen kah thingkawng te hang khuen,” a ti nah.
19 Kwasekusithi uSawuli esakhuluma lompristi, umsindo owawusenkambeni yamaFilisti waqhubeka wanda. USawuli wasesithi kumpristi: Buyisela isandla sakho.
Saul loh khosoih te a voek vaengah Philisti rhaehhmuen khuikah hlangping aka pongpa te a yet la muep pongpa uh. Te dongah khosoih te Saul loh, “Na kut te vawk poem ne,” a ti nah.
20 USawuli labo bonke abantu ababelaye basebebizelwa ndawonye bafika empini, khangela-ke, inkemba yalowo lalowo yayimelene lomakhelwane wakhe, isiyaluyalu esikhulu kakhulu.
Te daengah Saul neh a taengkah pilnam pum te a hueh tih caem te a paan uh. Tedae hlang kah cunghang loh a hui te a cuk thil tarha dongah soekloeknah loh len khungdaeng.
21 LamaHebheru ayelamaFilisti njengakuqala, enyukela lawo enkambeni inhlangothi zonke, ngitsho lawo aphenduka ukuthi abe loIsrayeli owayeloSawuli loJonathani.
Hebrew rhoek loh hlaem hlavai ah tah Philisti taengla om uh tih rhaehhmuen kaepvai ah amih taengla cet uh. Tedae amih khaw Saul neh Jonathan taengkah Israel taengla koep om uh.
22 Kwathi amadoda wonke akoIsrayeli ayecatshe entabeni yakoEfrayimi esezwile ukuthi amaFilisti ayabaleka, ngitsho lawo awanamathela ewalandela empini.
Philisti rhoek rhaelrham coeng tila Ephraim tlang ah aka thuh Israel hlang boeih loh a yaak uh vaengah caemtloek dongah amih taengah koep kaibaeng uh.
23 Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uIsrayeli ngalolosuku; lempi yedlulela eBeti-Aveni.
Tekah khohnin ah Israel te BOEIPA loh a khang dongah caem loh Bethaven a poeng phai.
24 Amadoda akoIsrayeli asekhathala ngalolosuku, ngoba uSawuli wafungisa abantu esithi: Kaqalekiswe umuntu odla ukudla kuze kube ntambama, ukuze ngiziphindiselele ezitheni zami. Ngakho kakho ebantwini owanambitha ukudla.
Te khohnin ah Israel hlang te a tueihno coeng. Saul loh pilnam te a tap tih, “Hlaem duela buh aka ca hlang te tah thaephoei thil saeh, ka thunkha soah phu ka loh vaengah,” a ti. Te dongah pilnam boeih loh buh ten pawh.
25 Bonke abelizwe basebefika ehlathini; njalo kwakuloluju phezu kobuso bomhlabathi.
Te daengah khohmuen pum loh duup neh diklai hman kah khoitui aka om te a paan uh pueng.
26 Lapho abantu bengena ehlathini, khangela, uluju lwathonta; kodwa kakho loyedwa owasa isandla sakhe emlonyeni wakhe, ngoba abantu besaba isifungo.
Pilnam loh duup khuiah khoitui tuicip te lawt a thoeng thil. Tedae olhlo te pilnam loh a rhih dongah a ka khuila a kut puei pawh.
27 Kodwa uJonathani wayengezwanga lapho uyise efungisa abantu; ngakho welula isihloko somqwayi owawusesandleni sakhe, wasigxamuza ehlangeni lwenyosi, wasesisa isandla sakhe emlonyeni wakhe, lamehlo akhe aqaqabuka.
Tedae a napa loh pilnam a toem a ngam vaengah Jonathan loh ya pawh. Te dongah a kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong te a khoh tih duup kah khoitui khuila a nuem. A hmuh lawt neh a kut te a ka dongla a coh hatah a mik a tueng pah.
28 Omunye wabantu wasephendula wathi: Uyihlo ubafungisile lokubafungisa abantu esithi: Uqalekisiwe umuntu odla ukudla lamuhla. Abantu basebephele amandla.
Te vaengah pilnam khuikah hlang pakhat loh a doo tih, “Pilnam te na pa loh ol a caeng a caeng tih, 'Tihnin ah caak aka ca hlang tah thaephoei thil la om coeng,’ a ti nah dongah pilnam he lamlum,” a ti nah.
29 UJonathani wasesithi: Ubaba ulihluphile ilizwe; ake libone ukuthi amehlo ami aseqaqabuke njani, ngoba nginambithe ingcosana yaloluluju.
Te vaengah Jonathan loh, “Khohmuen kongah a pa loh n'lawn coeng. He khoitui bet ka ten dongah ka mik a tueng he hmu uh van lah.
30 Kudlula kangakanani aluba abantu bebedlile lokudla lamuhla okwempango yezitha zabo abayitholayo? Ngoba khathesi ukubulala kakubanga kukhulu phakathi kwamaFilisti.
A thunkha kah kutbuem a hmuh uh te pilnam loh tihnin ah ca lammah ca van mai koinih Philisti khuiah hmasoe yet pawt suidae a?,” a ti.
31 Basebetshaya amaFilisti ngalolosuku kusukela eMikimashi kuze kube seAjaloni. Abantu basebephele amandla kakhulu.
Tekah khohnin ah Philisti te Mikmash lamloh Aijalon duela a tloek uh tih pilnam khaw mat tawn.
32 Abantu basebetheleka empangweni; bathatha izimvu, lezinkabi, lamathole enkomo, bakuhlabela emhlabathini; abantu bakudla kanye legazi.
Te tlam te a saii vaengah pilnam te kutbuem kutbuem dongla cu. Te phoeiah boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, saelhung ca khaw a loh uh. Te te diklai ah a ngawn uh tih a thii khaw pilnam loh a caak thil.
33 Basebemtshela uSawuli besithi: Khangela, abantu bayona eNkosini ngokudla kanye legazi. Wasesithi: Lenze ngokungathembeki; giqelani kimi ilitshe elikhulu lamuhla.
Te dongah Saul taengla puen uh tih, “Thii a caak dongah pilnam loh BOEIPA taengah tholh uh coeng ke,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Na hnukpoh uh tih tihnin ah kai taengla lungnu nam paluet uh,” a ti nah.
34 USawuli wasesithi: Zihlakazeni phakathi kwabantu lithi kibo: Sondezani kimi, ngulowo lalowo inkabi yakhe, langulowo lalowo imvu yakhe, lizihlabele lapha, lidle; njalo lingoni eNkosini ngokudla kanye legazi. Ngakho bonke abantu basondeza, ngulowo lalowo inkabi yakhe ngesandla sakhe ngalobobusuku, bazihlaba khona.
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Pilnam taengah taekyak uh lamtah amih te thui pah. Hlang boeih loh kai taengla a vaito khaw, hlang boeih loh a tu hang khuen saeh. He ah ngawn uh lamtah ca uh. Tedae a thii neh na caak ham tah BOEIPA taengah na tholh uh pawt nim?,” a ti nah. Te dongah khoyin ah tah pilnam boeih loh amah kah vaito te a kut dongah rhip a khuen uh tih pahoi a ngawn uh.
35 USawuli waseyakhela iNkosi ilathi; kwakulilathi lokuqala alakhela iNkosi.
Te vaengah Saul loh BOEIPA ham hmueihtuk a suem te anih loh BOEIPA ham lamhma cuek a suem hmueihtuk la om.
36 USawuli wasesithi: Asehleni silandele amaFilisti ebusuku, siwaphange kuze kube yikukhanya kokusa, singatshiyi lamuntu kiwo. Basebesithi: Yenza konke okuhle emehlweni akho. Kodwa umpristi wathi: Asisondeleni lapha kuNkulunkulu.
Te phoeiah Saul loh, “Khoyin ah Philisti hnuk te suntlak thil sih lamtah mincang khosae duela amih te poelyoe sih, amih hlang te hlun boel sih,” a ti nah hatah, “Na mik dongah aka then sarhui tah saii laeh,” a ti nauh. Tedae khosoih longtah, “Pathen taengla pahoi nawn uh sih,” a ti nah.
37 USawuli wasebuza kuNkulunkulu wathi: Ngehle ngilandele amaFilisti yini? Uzawanikela esandleni sikaIsrayeli yini? Kodwa kamphendulanga ngalolosuku.
Te dongah Pathen te Saul loh, “Philisti hnukah ka suntla aya? Amih ke Israel kut ah na paek aya? tila a dawt. Tedae tekah khohnin ah anih te doo pawh.
38 USawuli wasesithi: Sondelani lapha lonke bakhokheli babantu, lazi libone ukuthi lesisono sikukuphi lamuhla.
Te dongah Saul loh, “Pilnam te a cong cong ah boeih ha mop saeh lamtah ming uh saeh. Tihnin kah aka om tholhnah he hmu uh van saeh.
39 Ngoba kuphila kukaJehova owasindisa uIsrayeli, lanxa kungaba kuJonathani indodana yami, isibili uzakufa lokufa. Kodwa kakho loyedwa owamphendulayo ebantwini bonke.
BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah Israel he a khang. Te loh ka ca Jonathan om puei mai cakhaw Jonathan he duek rhoe duek saeh,” a ti. Tedae pilnam boeih loh anih te doo voel pawh.
40 Wasesithi kuIsrayeli wonke: Banini nganxanye lina, mina-ke loJonathani indodana yami sizakuba nganxanye. Abantu basebesithi kuSawuli: Yenza okuhle emehlweni akho.
Te phoeiah, “Nangmih Israel pum te rhalvangan pakhat ah om lamtah kai neh ka capa Jonathan tah rhalvangan pakhat ah ka om eh?,” a ti nah. Tedae Saul te pilnam loh, “Na mikhmuh ah aka then tah saii ngawn,” a ti nah.
41 Ngakho uSawuli wathi eNkosini uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Phana opheleleyo. UJonathani loSawuli basebebanjwa, kodwa abantu baphunyuka.
Te dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA te Saul loh, “A cuemthuek mah m'pae,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan neh Saul te a tuuk tih pilnam te loeih.
42 USawuli wasesithi: Yenzani inkatho yokuphosa phakathi kwami loJonathani indodana yami. UJonathani wasebanjwa.
Saul loh, “Kai laklo neh ka capa Jonathan laklo ah hmulung naan lah,” a ti nah tih Jonathan a tuuk.
43 USawuli wasesithi kuJonathani: Ngitshela okwenzileyo. UJonathani wasemtshela wathi: Oqotho nginambithe ngesihloko somqwayi obusesandleni sami imbijana yoluju; khangela ngilapha, sengizakufa!
Te phoeiah Saul loh Jonathan te, “Na saii te kai taengah thui lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan loh anih taengla a puen pah tih, “Khoitui a yol, ka kut dongkah caitueng hmuidong kah te ka ten la ka ten mai nen nim kai ka duek tarha eh?,” a ti nah.
44 USawuli wasesithi: UNkulunkulu kenze njalo langokunjalo engezelele; ngoba uzakufa lokufa, Jonathani.
Saul loh, “Jonathan! duek khaw duek laeh, Pathen loh n'saii vetih n'talh bal ve,” a ti nah.
45 Kodwa abantu bathi kuSawuli: Uzakufa yini uJonathani, owenze lolusindiso olukhulu koIsrayeli? Kakube khatshana! Kuphila kukaJehova, kakuyikuwela emhlabathini lolulodwa unwele lwekhanda lakhe, ngoba usebenze loNkulunkulu lamuhla. Ngakho abantu bamhlenga uJonathani ukuthi angafi.
Tedae Saul taengah pilnam loh, “Israel khuiah khangnah a len la aka saii Jonathan te duek saeh e? BOEIPA kah hingnah nen tah savisava, tihnin ah he Pathen loh a saii puei dongah, a lu lamkah samtlang pakhat pataeng lai la rhul mahpawh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jonathan te pilnam loh a lat tih duek pawh.
46 USawuli wasesenyuka esuka ekulandeleni amaFilisti; amaFilisti asesiya endaweni yawo.
Te daengah Saul khaw Philisti hnuk lamloh vik nong tih Philisti khaw amah hmuen la cet uh.
47 USawuli wasethatha ubukhosi phezu kukaIsrayeli, walwa emelene lezitha zakhe zonke inhlangothi zonke, emelene loMowabi, njalo emelene labantwana bakoAmoni, njalo emelene loEdoma, njalo emelene lamakhosi eZoba, njalo emelene lamaFilisti; laloba ngaphi lapho aphendukela khona wayejezisa.
Saul loh Israel soah mangpa la huul uh tih, a kaepvai kah a thunkha boeih, Moab khaw, Ammon ca rhoek khaw, Edom khaw, Zobah manghai rhoek neh Philisti khaw a vathoh thil boeih te a hoilae tih, a tulnoi.
48 Wenza ngobuqhawe wasetshaya amaAmaleki, wakhulula uIsrayeli esandleni somphangi wakhe.
Caem neh a saii tih Amalek te a tloek dongah anih aka reth kut lamloh Israel te a huul.
49 Lamadodana kaSawuli ayengoJonathani loIshivi, loMaliki-Shuwa; lamabizo amadodakazi akhe amabili yila: Ibizo lezibulo lalinguMerabi, lebizo lencinyane linguMikhali.
Saul ca rhoek he Jonathan khaw, Ishee khaw, Malkhishua khaw, a canu rhoi khaw a ming om uh. A canu a ham ming tah Merab tih a noe ming Mikhal ni.
50 Lebizo lomkaSawuli lalinguAhinowama indodakazi kaAhimahazi; lebizo lenduna yebutho lakhe lalinguAbhineri indodana kaNeri, uyise omncinyane kaSawuli.
Saul yuu, a ming ah Ahinoam he Ahimaaz canu ni. Anih kah caempuei mangpa, a ming ah Abner he khaw Saul kah a napanoe Ner capa ni.
51 Njalo uKishi wayenguyise kaSawuli, loNeri uyise kaAbhineri wayeyindodana kaAbiyeli.
Kish he tah Saul kah a napa la om tih, Abiel capa Abner he tah Ner kah a napa la om.
52 Njalo kwakukhona impi enzima lamaFilisti zonke izinsuku zikaSawuli; lapho uSawuli ebona indoda elamandla loba iqhawe, wayezibuthela yona.
Saul tue khuiah he Philisti neh caemtloek he a tlungluen la om. Te dongah Saul loh hlang boeih te hlangrhalh neh tatthai ca khaw boeih a hmuh tih amah taengla a coi.
