1 Saamuʼeel 7
1 Kanaafuu namoonni Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim dhufanii taabota Waaqayyoo fudhatanii ol baʼan. Isaanis gara mana Abiinaadaab kan gaara irra jiruutti geessan; akka inni taabota Waaqayyoo eeguufis ilma isaa Eleʼaazaarin qulqulleessan.
And the men of Kiryath-ye'arim came, and fetched up the ark of the Lord, and brought it unto the house of Abinadab on the hill, and Elazar his son they sanctified to guard the ark of the Lord.
2 Taabonni sun erga gara Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim geeffamee yeroo dheeraa dha; walumaa galatti waggaa digdama taaʼe. Sabni Israaʼel hundinuus booʼichaan Waaqayyotti deebiʼe.
And it came to pass, from the time the ark remained in Kiryath-ye'arim, and the time was long, and it was twenty years: that all the house of Israel followed anxiously after the Lord.
3 Saamuʼeelis guutummaa mana Israaʼeliin akkana jedhe; “Yoo isin garaa keessan guutuudhaan Waaqayyotti deebitanii, waaqota ormaatii fi Ashtooretin waaqeffachuu dhiisuudhaan Waaqayyotti of kennitanii isa qofaaf tajaajiltan, inni harka Filisxeemotaa jalaa isin ni baasa.”
And Samuel said unto all the house of Israel, as followeth, If with all your heart ye do return unto the Lord, then put away the gods of the stranger and the 'Ashtaroth from your midst, and direct your heart unto the Lord, and serve him alone: and then will he deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
4 Kanaaf Israaʼeloonni Baʼaalii fi Ashtooretin calaasanii Waaqayyoon qofa tajaajilan.
Then did the children of Israel put away the Be'alim and the 'Ashtaroth, and served the Lord alone.
5 Kana irrattis Saamuʼeel, “Isin Israaʼeloota hundumaa Miisphaatti walitti qabaa; anis Waaqayyoon isiniif nan kadhadhaa” jedhe.
And Samuel said, Assemble all Israel together at Mizpah, and I will pray in your behalf unto the Lord.
6 Isaanis yommuu Miisphaatti walitti qabamanitti bishaan waraabanii fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhangalaasan. Gaafas soomanii, “Nu Waaqayyotti cubbuu hojjenneerra” jedhan. Saamuʼeelis Miisphaatti saba Israaʼel irratti murtii kenna ture.
And they assembled themselves together at Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before the Lord, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against the Lord. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.
7 Yommuu Filisxeemonni akka Israaʼel Miisphaatti walitti qabame dhagaʼanitti bulchitoonni Filisxeem isaan waraanuudhaaf ol baʼan. Ijoolleen Israaʼelis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti Filisxeemota ni sodaatan.
And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel had assembled themselves at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
8 Isaanis Saamuʼeeliin, “Akka inni harka Filisxeemotaa jalaa nu baasuuf gara Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatti nuu iyyuu hin dhiisin” jedhan.
And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Do not abstain, so as not to cry for us unto the Lord our God, that he may help us out of the hand of the Philistines.
9 Saamuʼeelis ilmoo hoolaa kan hodhu tokko fuudhee jiraa isaa aarsaa gubamu godhee Waaqayyoof dhiʼeesse. Qooda Israaʼelis gara Waaqayyootti iyye; Waaqayyos deebii kenneef.
And Samuel took one sucking lamb, and offered it for an entire burnt-offering unto the Lord: and Samuel cried unto the Lord in behalf of Israel; and the Lord answered him.
10 Utuu Saamuʼeel aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessaa jiruu Filisxeemonni Israaʼelin loluuf dhiʼaatan. Gaafas garuu Waaqayyo sagalee qaqawwee guddaa isaa isaan irratti qaqawweessaʼee waan isaan joonjesseef Filisxeemonni fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti ni moʼataman.
And as Samuel was offering up the burnt-offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but the Lord thundered with a loud noise on that day over the Philistines, and brought them into confusion, and they were smitten before Israel.
11 Israaʼeloonnis Miisphaadhaa baʼanii Filisxeemota karaa irratti gorraʼaa hamma Beet Kaari jalaatti isaan ariʼan.
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, as far as below Beth-car.
12 Ergasii Saamuʼeel dhagaa tokko fuudhee Miisphaa fi Sheen gidduu dhaabe. Maqaa isaas, “Waaqayyo hamma harʼaatti nu gargaareera” jedhee, “Ebeenezer” jedhee moggaase.
And Samuel took one stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Eben-ha'ezer, saying, As far as this hath the Lord helped us.
13 Kanaafuu Filisxeemonni waan moʼatamaniif lammata deebiʼanii biyya Israaʼelootaa hin weerarre. Bara jireenya Saamuʼeel guutuu harki Waaqayyoo Filisxeemota irratti ni jabaate.
So were the Philistines humbled, and they came no more into the territory of Israel; and the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14 Magaalaawwan Filisxeemonni Israaʼel irraa fudhatanii turan kanneen Eqroonii jalqabanii hamma Gaatitti jiran hundinuu Israaʼelootaaf ni deebiʼan. Israaʼelis daangaa ishee Filisxeemota harkaa baafate. Israaʼelii fi Amoorota gidduuttis nageenyi buʼee ture.
And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel came again to Israel, from 'Ekron even unto Gath, and their territory did Israel deliver out of the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Emorites.
15 Saamuʼeelis bara jireenya isaa guutuu abbaa murtii saba Israaʼel ture.
And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
16 Innis wagguma waggaan Beetʼeel, Gilgaalii fi Miisphaa keessa naannaʼee iddoo hundatti abbaa murtii saba Israaʼel ture.
And he went from year to year and traveled in circuit to Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all these places.
17 Ergasiis gara Raamaa iddoo jireenya isaatti deebiʼee achittis saba Israaʼel irratti murtii kenna ture. Achittis Waaqayyoof iddoo aarsaa ijaare.
And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house; and there he judged Israel: and he built there an altar unto the Lord.
