Samu'il 1 13
1 Saul [ottuz] yaxta padixaⱨ bolup Israilning üstidǝ ikki yil sǝltǝnǝt ⱪilƣandin keyin
Saul was no longer a young man when he became the king. He ruled Israel for 42 years.
2 Ɵzigǝ Israildin üq ming adǝmni ilƣap aldi. Ikki mingi Mikmaxta wǝ Bǝyt-Əl taƣlirida Saulning ⱪexida, bir mingi Binyamin zeminidiki Gibeaⱨda Yonatanning ⱪexida idi. Əmma u ⱪalƣan hǝlⱪning ⱨǝrbirini ɵz ɵylirigǝ kǝtküziwǝtti.
[Several years after he became king], he chose three thousand men from the Israeli army to go with him [to fight the Philistines]. Then he sent the other soldiers back home. Of the men he chose, 2,000 stayed with Saul at Micmash and in the hilly area near Bethel, and 1,000 stayed with [Saul’s son] Jonathan at Gibeah, in the area where the descendants of Benjamin lived.
3 Yonatan bolsa Filistiylǝrning Gebadiki lǝxkǝrgaⱨiƣa ⱨujum ⱪildi, Filistiylǝr buningdin hǝwǝr tapti. Saul bolsa: — Pütkül zemindiki ibraniylar anglap oyƣansun dǝp, kanay qaldurdi.
Jonathan [and the men who were with him] attacked the Philistine soldiers who were camped at Geba. The [other] Philistines heard about that. [So Saul realized that the army of Philistia would probably come to fight the Israelis again]. So Saul [sent messengers to] blow trumpets throughout Israel [to gather the people together and] proclaim to them, “All you Hebrews need to hear [that now the Philistines will start a war with us]!”
4 Pütkül Israil Saulning Filistiylǝrning lǝxkǝrgaⱨiƣa ⱨujum ⱪilƣanliⱪidin ⱨǝmdǝ Israilning Filistiylǝrgǝ nǝprǝtlinidiƣanlikidin hǝwǝr tapti. Hǝlⱪ Saulning kǝynidin Gilgalƣa berip yiƣildi.
The messengers told the rest of the army to gather together with Saul at Gilgal. And all the people in Israel heard the news. People were saying, “Saul’s army has attacked the Philistine camp, with the result that now the Philistines hate us Israelis very much.”
5 Filistiylǝrdin Israil bilǝn jǝng ⱪilƣili üq ming jǝng ⱨarwisi, altǝ ming atliⱪ lǝxkǝr wǝ dengiz saⱨilidiki ⱪumdǝk kɵp piyadǝ lǝxkǝr yiƣildi. Ular kelip Bǝyt-Awǝnning xǝrⱪ tǝripidiki Mikmaxta bargaⱨ tikti.
The Philistines gathered together and were given equipment to fight the Israelis. The Philistines had 3,000 chariots, and 6,000 chariot-drivers. Their soldiers [seemed to be as many] as grains of sand on the seashore [HYP]. They went up and set up their tents at Micmash, to the east of Beth-Aven ([which means ‘house of wickedness’, and really referred to Bethel town]).
6 Israilning adǝmliri ɵzlirining ⱪattiⱪ hiyim-hǝtǝrdǝ ⱪalƣanliⱪini kɵrüp ƣarlarƣa, qatⱪalliⱪlarƣa, ⱪiya taxliⱪlarƣa, yuⱪiri jaylarƣa wǝ azgallarƣa yoxuruniwelixti;
The Philistines attacked the Israelis very strongly, and the Israeli soldiers realized that they were in a very bad situation. So many of the Israeli soldiers hid in caves and holes in the ground, or among the rocks, or in pits, or in wells.
7 [bǝzi] Ibraniylar Iordan dǝryasidin ɵtüp, Gad wǝ Gileadning zeminiƣa ⱪeqip bardi. Lekin Saul Gilgalda ⱪaldi, adǝmlirining ⱨǝmmisi uningƣa titrigǝn ⱨalda ǝgǝxti.
Some of them crossed the Jordan River at a place where it was very shallow. Then they went to the area where the descendants of Gad lived and to [the] Gilead [region]. But Saul stayed at Gilgal. All the soldiers who were with him were shaking [because they were so afraid].
8 Əmdi Saul Samuil uningƣa bekitkǝn waⱪitⱪiqǝ yǝttǝ kün kütüp turdi; lekin Samuil Gilgalƣa kǝlmidi, hǝlⱪ uningdin tarilip kǝtkili turdi.
Saul waited seven days, which was the number of days that Samuel had told him to wait for him. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal [during that time], so many of the men in Saul’s army began to leave him and run away.
9 Saul: — Kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪ bilǝn inaⱪliⱪ ⱪurbanliⱪlirini bu yǝrgǝ — yenimƣa elip kelinglar, dedi. Andin u ɵzi kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪ ɵtküzdi.
So Saul said to the soldiers, “Bring to me an animal to be completely burned [on the altar] and one for the offering to enable us to maintain fellowship [with God].” [So the men did that].
10 Wǝ xundaⱪ boldiki, u kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪni tügitixi bilǝnla, mana Samuil kǝldi. Saul uningƣa salam ⱪilƣili aldiƣa qiⱪti.
And just as he was finished burning those offerings, Samuel arrived. Saul went to greet him.
11 Lekin Samuil: — Nemǝ ixlarni ⱪilding?! — dǝp soridi. Saul: — Hǝlⱪ mǝndin tarilip kǝtkǝnlikini, silining bekitkǝn waⱪitta kǝlmigǝnliklirini, Filistiylǝrning Mikmaxta yiƣilƣinini kɵrdum,
Samuel [saw what Saul had done, and he] said to Saul, “Why have you done this?” Saul replied, “I saw that my men were leaving me and running away, and that you did not come here during the time that you said that you would come, and that the Philistine army was gathering together at Micmash.
12 mǝn iqimdǝ: Əmdi Filistiylǝr Gilgalƣa qüxüp manga ⱨujum ⱪilmaⱪqi, mǝn bolsam tehi Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa iltija ⱪilmidim, dedim. Xunga kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪ ⱪilixⱪa ɵzümni mǝjburlidim, dedi.
“So I thought, ‘The Philistine army is going to attack us here at Gilgal, and I have not yet asked Yahweh to bless/help us.’ So I felt it was necessary to offer the burnt offerings [to seek God’s blessings].”
13 Samuil Saulƣa: — Sǝn ǝhmǝⱪliⱪ ⱪilding; sǝn Hudaying Pǝrwǝrdigar sanga buyruƣan ǝmrni tutmiding; xundaⱪ ⱪilƣan bolsang Pǝrwǝrdigar Israilning üstidiki sǝltǝnitingni mǝnggü mustǝⱨkǝm ⱪilatti, dedi.
Samuel replied, “What you did was very foolish! You have not obeyed what Yahweh, your God, commanded [about sacrifices]. If you had obeyed him, God would have allowed you and your descendants to rule [Israel] for a long time.
14 Lekin ǝmdi sǝltǝniting mustǝⱨkǝm turmaydu. Pǝrwǝrdigar Ɵz kɵnglidikidǝk muwapiⱪ bir adǝmni izdǝp tapti. Pǝrwǝrdigar uni Ɵz hǝlⱪining baxlamqisi ⱪildi, qünki sǝn Pǝrwǝrdigar sanga buyruƣanni tutmiding, dedi.
But now [because of what you have done, you will die, and after you die, ] none of your descendants will rule. Yahweh is seeking for a man [to be king] who will be just the kind of person that he wants him to be, so that he can appoint him to be the leader of his people. Yahweh will do this because you have not obeyed what he commanded.”
15 Andin Samuil ornidin turup Gilgaldin ketip Binyamin zeminidiki Gibeaⱨƣa bardi. Saul bolsa ɵz yenidiki adǝmlǝrni sanidi; ular altǝ yüzqǝ qiⱪti.
Then Samuel left Gilgal and went up to Gibeah. Saul stayed at Gilgal with his soldiers. There were only about 600 of them left [who had not run away].
16 Saul bilǝn oƣli Yonatan wǝ ularning ⱪexida ⱪalƣan hǝlⱪ Binyamin zeminidiki Gebada ⱪelip ⱪaldi, Filistiylǝr bolsa Mikmaxta bargaⱨ tikkǝnidi.
Saul and his son Jonathan and the soldiers who were with them went to Geba [city] in the area of the tribe of Benjamin [and set up their tents there]. The Philistine army set up their tents at Micmash.
17 Ⱪaraⱪqilar daim Filistiylǝrning bargaⱨidin qiⱪip üq bɵlǝkkǝ bɵlünǝtti. Bir bɵlǝk Xual zeminidiki Ofraⱨƣa baridiƣan yolƣa atlinatti,
Three groups of Philistia men soon left the place where their army was staying, and went and (raided the Israeli towns/attacked the Israelis and took their possessions). One group went [north] toward Ophrah [city] in [the] Shual [region].
18 bir bɵlǝk Bǝyt-Ⱨoronƣa baridiƣan yol bilǝn mangatti, yǝnǝ bir bɵlǝk qɵlning qetidiki Zǝboim jilƣisiƣa ⱪaraydiƣan zemindiki yolƣa mangatti.
One group went [west] to Beth-Horon [city]. The third group went toward the [Israeli] border, above Zeboim Valley, near the desert.
19 Əmma pütkül Israil zeminida ⱨeqbir tɵmürqi tepilmaytti; qünki Filistiylǝr: — Ibraniylar ɵzlirigǝ ⱪiliq yaki nǝyzǝ yasiyalmisun, dǝp oylaytti.
At that time, there were no men in Israel who (were blacksmiths/could make things from iron). [The people of Philistia would not permit the Israelis to do that, because they were afraid that] they would make iron swords and spears for the Hebrews to fight with.
20 Bu sǝwǝbtin Israillar ⱨǝmmisi sapan qixliri, kǝtmǝnlirini, paltilirini wǝ orƣaⱪlirini bislax üqün Filistiylǝrning ⱪexiƣa baratti.
So [whenever the Israelis needed] to sharpen the blades of their plows, or picks, or axes, or sickles, they were forced to take those things to a Philistia man who could sharpen those things.
21 Ular sapan qixliri wǝ kǝtmǝnlǝr üqün üqtin ikki xǝkǝl, jotu, palta wǝ zihlarni bislax üqün üqtin bir xǝkǝlni tɵlǝytti.
They needed to pay (one fourth of an ounce/8 grams) of silver for sharpening a plow, and (an eighth of an ounce/4 grams) of silver to sharpen an axe, or a sickle, or (an ox goad/a pointed rod to jab an ox to make it walk).
22 Xunga urux bolƣanda Saul wǝ Yonatanning ⱪexidiki hǝlⱪning ⱨeqbiridǝ ⱪiliq ya nǝyzǝ yoⱪ idi; pǝⱪǝt Saul bilǝn oƣli Yonatandila bar idi.
So [because the Israelis could not make weapons from iron], on the day that the Israelis fought [against the men of Philistia], Saul and Jonathan were the only Israeli men who had swords. None of the others had a sword; [they had only bows and arrows].
23 U waⱪitta Filistiylǝrning bir ⱪarawullar ǝtriti Mikmaxtiki dawanƣa qiⱪⱪanidi.
Before the battle started, some Philistia men went to (the pass/a narrow place between two cliffs) outside Micmash to guard it.
