< 1 Samuel 5 >

1 Filistifoɔ no faa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no akyi, wɔmaa so firii Ebeneser akono hɔ kɔɔ kuropɔn Asdod mu.
Kane jo-Filistia osekawo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye ne gigole Ebeneza mi gitere Ashdod.
2 Wɔsoaa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Dagon abosonnan mu. Wɔde kɔsii ohoni Dagon nkyɛn.
Eka negitingʼo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye mi gitero ei hekalu mar Dagon kendo negikete bath Dagon.
3 Nanso, ɛberɛ a adeɛ kyeeɛ a Asdod kuro mma no kɔhwɛeɛ no, na Dagon ahwe fam wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim a nʼanim butu fam. Enti, wɔmaa ohoni no so gyinaa hɔ bio.
Kane jo-Ashdod ochiewo kinyne gokinyi mangʼich negiyudo ka Dagon, nogore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye! Negichungo Dagon mi gidwoke kare.
4 Nanso, adeɛ kyee anɔpa no, na asɛm korɔ no ara asi bio. Na Dagon no ahwe fam wɔ Awurade Apam Adaka no anim a nʼanim butu fam. Saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, na ne ti ne ne nsa abubu afiri so deda ɛpono ano. Ne kuntunsini na na aka da hɔ a ammubu.
To chiengʼ mar ariyo gokinyi kane gichiewo, negiyudo Dagon kanyo kosegore piny auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye. Wiye gi lwetene ne osetur kendo ne ni e ndiri, dende kende ema ne odongʼ.
5 Ɛno enti na ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ yi, Dagon asɔfoɔ anaa obiara a ɔbɛwura abosonnan mu hɔ no ntia aponnwa no so no.
Mano ema omiyo nyaka chil kawuono jodolo mag Dagon kata mana ngʼama donjo e hekalu mar Dagon e Ashdod ok nyon ndiri.
6 Na Awurade maa mpɔmpɔ bobɔɔ Asdodfoɔ ne ne mpɔtam hɔfoɔ no.
Lwet Jehova Nyasaye nosando jo-Ashdod kod kuonde machiegni kodgi, noketo luoro kuomgi, bende nogoyogi gi tuo mar buche.
7 Ɛberɛ Asdodfoɔ hunuu asɛm a aba no, wɔkaa sɛ, “Yɛrentumi mma Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no ntena yɛn nkyɛn. Ɔtia yɛn! Ɔbɛsɛe yɛn ne yɛn nyame, Dagon nyinaa.”
Kane jo-Ashdod oneno gima ne timore, negiwacho niya, “Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kik bed kodwa ka, nikech lwete osesandowa kaachiel gi Dagon ma nyasachwa.”
8 Enti, wɔfrɛɛ Filistifoɔ nkuropɔn enum mu sodifoɔ nyinaa bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na yɛnyɛ Israel Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka yi?” Sodifoɔ no susuu asɛm no ho na wɔbuaa sɛ, “Momfa Israel Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no nkɔ Gat.” Enti, wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Gat.
Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia ma gipenjogi niya, “Watim angʼo gi Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel?” Mine gidwoko niya, “Kawuru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel uter Gath.” Kamano negigolo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel.
9 Nanso, ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no duruu Gat no, Awurade maa mpɔmpɔ bobɔɔ kuro no mufoɔ, mpanin ne mmɔfra, na wɔsuroo yie.
Bangʼ kane gisegole, Jehova Nyasaye nokelo chandruok ne dala maduongʼno momiyo luoro malich omakogi. Ne ogoyo jomatindo gi jomadongo mar dala maduongʼno gi tuo buche.
10 Enti, wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no kɔɔ Ekron kuropɔn mu, na wɔde rewura hɔ no, Ekronfoɔ no suu sɛ, “Wɔde Israel Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no reba yɛn nkyɛn de abɛkunkum yɛn nso.”
Omiyo ne gitero Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye Ekron. Kane Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye nidonjogo Ekron, jo-Ekron noywak kawacho niya, “Gisekelo Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel kuomwa mondo onegwa kaachiel gi jowa.”
11 Enti, nnipa frɛɛ sodifoɔ no bio, srɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monsane mfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no mfiri ha nkɔ ne ɔman mu, anyɛ saa a, ɛbɛkunkum yɛn nyinaa.” Saa ɛberɛ no na ɔyaredɔm a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn nkyɛn no ahyɛ aseɛ dada ama huboa abɛtɔ kuropɔn no so.
Omiyo negiluongo ruodhi duto mag jo-Filistia mi giwachonegi niya, “Goluru Sandug Muma mar Nyasach jo-Israel; dwokeuru kare owuon, ka ok kamano to obiro negowa kaachiel gi jowa.” Nikech tho nosepongʼo dala maduongʼ gi kihondko; lwet Nyasaye nosandogi ahinya.
12 Wɔn a wɔanwuwu no, wɔmaa mpɔmpɔ bobɔɔ wɔn. Na agyaadwotwa baa baabiara.
Joma ne ok otho to tuo buche nomako kendo ywak mar dala maduongʼno nochopo nyaka e polo.
