1 Berɛsosɛm 10
1 Afei, Filistifoɔ no bɛto hyɛɛ Israel so, ma Israelfoɔ no dwaneeɛ. Wɔkunkumm wɔn mu pii wɔ bepɔ Gilboa so.
Forsothe Filisteis fouyten ayens Israel, and the sones of Israel fledden Palestyns, and felden doun woundid in the hil of Gelboe.
2 Filistifoɔ no kaa Saulo ne ne mmammarima hyɛeɛ. Wɔkunkumm wɔn mu baasa a wɔn ne Yonatan, Abinadab ne Malki-Sua.
And whanne Filisteis hadde neiyed pursuynge Saul and hise sones, thei killiden Jonathan, and Abynadab, and Melchisue, the sones of Saul.
3 Ɔko no ano yɛɛ den wɔ Saulo ho hyiaaɛ, ma Filistifoɔ agyantofoɔ no nyaa Saulo piraa no yie.
And the batel was agreggid ayens Saul; and men archeris foundun hym, and woundiden hym with dartis.
4 Saulo firi apenesie mu ka kyerɛɛ nʼakodeɛkurafoɔ no sɛ, “Twe wʼakofena, na fa wɔ me kum me na Filistifoɔ abosonsomfoɔ yi ammɛto me, angu mʼanim ase.” Nanso, na nʼakodeɛkurafoɔ no suro enti, wanyɛ saa. Enti, Saulo twee ɔno ara nʼakofena, de kumm ne ho.
And Saul seide to his squiere, Drawe out thi swerd, and sle me, leste these vncircumcidid men come, and scorne me. Sothli his squyer was aferd bi drede, and nolde do this; therfor Saul took a swerd, and felde on it.
5 Ɛberɛ a nʼakodeɛkurafoɔ no hunuu sɛ Saulo awuo no, ɔno nso de nʼakofena kumm ne ho.
And whanne his squyer hadde seyn this, that is, that Saul was deed, he felde also on his swerd, and was deed.
6 Ɛno enti, Saulo ne ne mmammarima baasa no wuwuu wɔ hɔ ara, ma nʼahennie nnidisoɔ no baa awieeɛ.
Therfor Saul perischide, and hise thre sones, and al his hows felde doun togidere.
7 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yesreel bɔnhwa no mu no hunuu sɛ wɔadi wɔn akodɔm no so, na Saulo ne ne mmammarima baasa no awuwu no, wɔdwane gyaa wɔn nkuro hɔ. Ɛno enti, Filistifoɔ no kɔfaa wɔn nkuro no.
And whanne the men of Israel, that dwelliden in feeldi places, hadden seyn this, thei fledden; and whanne Saul and hise sones weren deed, thei forsoken her citees, and weren scaterid hidur and thidur; and Filisteis camen, and dwelliden in tho.
8 Adeɛ kyeeɛ a Filistifoɔ no kɔɔ sɛ wɔrekɔyiyi atɔfoɔ no ho nneɛma no, wɔhunuu sɛ Saulo ne ne mmammarima no amu gugu bepɔ Gilboa so.
Therfor in the tother day Filisteis drowen awei the spuylis of slayn men, and founden Saul and hise sones liggynge in the hil of Gelboe.
9 Enti, wɔyiyii Saulo akodeɛ firii ne ho, twaa ne ti. Afei wɔbɔɔ Saulo wuo no ho dawuro, maa wɔn ahoni ne nnipa a wɔwɔ Filistia nyinaa teeɛ.
And whanne thei hadden spuylid hym, and hadden gird of the heed, and hadden maad hym nakid of armeris, thei senten in to her lond, that it schulde be borun aboute, and schulde be schewid in the templis of idols and to puplis;
10 Wɔde nʼakodeɛ no guu wɔn anyame no abosonnan mu, na wɔkyekyeree ne ti no fam Dagon asɔredan no ɔfasuo ho.
forsothe thei halewiden his armeris in the temple of her god, and thei settiden the heed in the temple of Dagon.
11 Nanso, Yabes Gileadfoɔ tee deɛ Filistifoɔ ayɛ Saulo no,
Whanne men of Jabes of Galad hadden herd this, that is, alle thingis whiche the Filisteis diden on Saul,
12 wɔn akofoɔ kɔfaa Saulo ne ne mmammarima baasa no amu baa Yabes. Na wɔsiee wɔn amu wɔ odum dua bi a ɛwɔ Yabes ase, na wɔdii mmuada nnanson.
alle stronge men risiden togidere, and took the deed bodies of Saul and of hise sones, and brouyten tho in to Jabes; and thei birieden the boonus of hem vndur an ook, that was in Jabes; and thei fastiden seuene daies.
13 Na Saulo wuiɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, wanni Awurade nokorɛ. Wanni Awurade ahyɛdeɛ so, na mpo, ɔkɔɔ asamanfrɛ,
Therfor Saul was deed for hise wickidnessis, for he brak the comaundement of the Lord, whiche he comaundide, and kepte not it, but ferthirmore also he took counsel at a womman hauynge a feend spekynge in the wombe, and he hopide not in the Lord;
14 wɔ ɛberɛ a anka ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbisa akwankyerɛ firi Awurade hɔ. Ɛno enti, Awurade kumm no, de nʼahennie hyɛɛ Yisai babarima Dawid nsa.
for which thing both the Lord killide hym, and translatide his rewme to Dauid, sone of Ysay.
