1 Saamuʼeel 31
1 Filisxeemonni yeroo kanatti Israaʼelitti waraana kaasan; Israaʼeloonnis isaan duraa baqatan; hedduun isaaniis Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti dhuman.
Now the Philistims fought against Israel, and the me of Israel fled away from ye Philistims, and they fell downe wounded in mount Gilboa.
2 Filisxeemonni ittuma jabeessanii Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa ariʼan; isaanis ilmaan isaa jechuunis Yoonaataan, Abiinaadaabii fi Malkii-Shuwaa ajjeesan.
And the Philistims preassed sore vpon Saul and his sonnes, and slewe Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua Sauls sonnes.
3 Lollis naannoo Saaʼolitti baayʼee cime; warri xiyyaan lolanis isa qaqqabanii akka malee isa madeessan.
And when the battel went sore against Saul, the archers and bowmen hit him, and hee was sore wounded of the archers.
4 Saaʼolis namicha miʼa lolaa isaa baatuun, “Goraadee kee luqqifadhuutii na waraani; yoo kanaa achii namoonni dhagna hin qabamin kunneen dhufanii na waraananii natti taphatuu” jedhe. Namichi miʼa lolaa baatuuf sun garuu waan akka malee sodaateef isa hin waraanne; kanaafuu Saaʼol goraadee ofii isaa luqqifatee irratti kufe.
Then saide Saul vnto his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust mee through therewith, lest the vncircumcised come and thrust me through and mocke me: but his armour bearer would not, for hee was sore afraid. Therefore Saul tooke a sworde and fell vpon it.
5 Namichi miʼa lolaa baatu sun yommuu akka Saaʼol duʼe argetti innis goraadee ofii isaa irratti kufee Saaʼol wajjin duʼe.
And when his armour bearer sawe that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon his sword, and dyed with him.
6 Kanaafuu Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan, namichi miʼa lolaa baatuu fi namoonni isaa hundinuu gaafasuma walumaan dhuman.
So Saul dyed, and his three sonnes, and his armour bearer, and all his men that same day together.
7 Israaʼeloonni qarqara sululaatii fi gama Yordaanos jiran yommuu akka loltoonni Israaʼel baqatanii fi akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaas dhuman arganitti magaalaawwan isaanii dhiisanii baqatan. Filisxeemonni immoo dhufanii keessa qubatan.
And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they of the other side Iorden saw that the men of Israel were put to flight, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, then they left the cities, and ran away: and the Philistims came and dwelt in them.
8 Filisxeemonnis guyyaa itti aanutti yommuu warra dhuman irraa hidhannaa hiikkachuu dhufanitti, akka Saaʼolii fi ilmaan isaa sadan Tulluu Gilboʼaa irratti kukkufanii jiran argan.
And on the morowe when the Philistims were come to spoyle them that were slaine, they founde Saul and his three sonnes lying in mount Gilboa,
9 Isaanis mataa Saaʼol irraa kutanii, miʼa lolaa isa irraa fudhatanii akka isaan mana waaqota tolfamoo isaanii keessattii fi saba isaaniitiif oduu kana labsaniif guutummaa biyya Filisxeemotaa keessa ergamoota ergan.
And they cut off his head, and stripped him out of his armour, and sent into the land of ye Philistims on euery side, that they should publish it in the temple of their idoles, and among the people.
10 Isaanis miʼa lolaa isaa mana Ashtooreti waaqicha tolfamaa keessa kaaʼan; reeffa isaa immoo dallaa Beet Shaanitti hodhan.
And they layed vp his armour in the house of Ashtaroth, but they hanged vp his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
11 Namoonni Yaabeesh Giliʼaad yommuu waan Filisxeemonni Saaʼolin godhan dhagaʼanitti,
When the inhabitants of Iabesh Gilead heard, what the Philistims had done to Saul,
12 namoonni jajjaboon isaanii hundi halkaniin kaʼanii dhaqanii reeffa Saaʼolii fi reeffa ilmaan isaa dallaa Beet Shaan irraa buusanii gara Yaabeeshitti fidanii achitti guban.
Then they arose (as many as were strong men) and went all night, and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, from the wall of Beth-shan, and came to Iabesh, and burnt them there,
13 Ergasii lafee isaanii fuudhanii Yaabeeshitti muka tamirii jalatti awwaalan; bultii torbas ni sooman.
And tooke their bones and buried them vnder a tree at Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes.
