1 Samuel 14
1 Now one day Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was with him, looking after his arms, Come, let us go over to the Philistine force over there. But he said nothing to his father.
Ary tamin’ ny indray andro dia hoy Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, tamin’ ny zatovo, mpitondra ny fiadiany: Andeha isika hankany amin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina izay erỳ an-dafy erỳ. Nefa tsy nilaza tamin-drainy izy.
2 And Saul was still waiting in the farthest part of Geba, under the fruit-tree in Migron: there were about six hundred men with him;
Ary Saoly nitoetra tao an-tsisin’ i Gibea teo ambanin’ ny hazo ampongabendanitra any Migrona; ary ny vahoaka teo aminy dia tokony ho enin-jato lahy;
3 And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the Lord in Shiloh, who had the ephod. And the people had no idea that Jonathan had gone.
ary teo koa nisalotra efoda Ahia, zanak’ i Ahitoba, rahalahin’ i Ikaboda, zanak’ i Finehasa, zanak’ i Ely, mpisoron’ i Jehovah tany Silo. Fa tsy fantatry ny olona fa lasa Jonatana.
4 Now between the narrow roads over the mountains by which Jonathan was making his way to the Philistines' forces, there was a sharp overhanging rock on one side, and a sharp rock on the other side: one was named Bozez and the other Seneh.
Ary teo an-daniny roa teo an-tenatenan’ ny hadilanana izay nitadiavan’ i Jonatana hankanesana ao amin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina dia nisy harambato kitso loha: ny anaran’ ny anankiray dia Bozeza, ary ny anaran’ ny anankiray kosa Sene.
5 The one rock went up on the north in front of Michmash and the other on the south in front of Geba.
Ny iray amin’ ireo harambato ireo dia nijoro avo teo an-daniny avaratra manandrify an’ i Mikmasy, ary ny iray kosa nijoro avo teo atsimo manandrify an’ i Gibea.
6 And Jonathan said to his young servant who had his arms, Come, let us go over to the armies of these men who have no circumcision: it may be that the Lord will give us help, for there is no limit to his power; the Lord is able to give salvation by a great army or by a small band.
Ary hoy Jonatana tamin’ ny zatovo, mpitondra ny fiadiany: Andeha isika hankany amin’ ny miaramilan’ ireo tsy mifora ireo; angamba homba antsika Jehovah, fa tsy misy mahasakana an’ i Jehovah tsy hamonjy, na amin’ ny maro, na amin’ ny vitsy.
7 And his servant said to him, Do whatever is in your mind: see, I am with you in every impulse of your heart.
Dia hoy kosa ny mpitondra ny fiadiany taminy: Ataovy izay rehetra ao am-ponao; mandrosoa ihany; indro, hanaraka anao aho araka ny sitraponao.
8 Then Jonathan said, Now we will go over to these men and let them see us.
Ary hoy Jonatana: Indro, handroso ho amin’ ireo olona ireo isika ka hiseho aminy.
9 If they say to us, Keep quiet where you are till we come to you; then we will keep our places and not go up to them.
Ary raha hoy izy: Andraso mandra-pahatonganay any aminareo, dia hitoetra ao amin’ izay itoerantsika ihany isika ka tsy hiakatra eny aminy.
10 But if they say, Come up to us; then we will go up, for the Lord has given them into our hands: and this will be the sign to us.
Fa raha hoy kosa izy: Miakara etỳ aminay, dia hiakatra isika, fa efa natolotr’ i Jehovah eo an-tanantsika izy; ary izany no ho famantarana ho antsika.
11 And they let the Philistine force see the two of them: and the Philistines said, Look! the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have taken cover.
Dia niseho tamin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina izy roa lahy, ary hoy ny Filistina: Indreo, misy Hebreo mifongatra avy any an-davaka niereny.
12 And the armed men of the force gave Jonathan and his servant their answer, saying, Come up here to us, and we will let you see something. Then Jonathan said to his servant, Come up after me: for the Lord has given them up into the hands of Israel.
Ary ny miaramila namaly an’ i Jonatana sy ny mpitondra ny fiadiany hoe: Miakara etỳ aminay, dia hanehoanay zavatra ianareo. Ary hoy Jonatana tamin’ ny mpitondra ny fiadiany: Manaraha ahy, fa efa natolotr’ i Jehovah eo an-tànan’ ny Isiraely izy.
13 And Jonathan went up, gripping with his hands and his feet, his servant going up after him; and the Philistines gave way before Jonathan when he made an attack on them, and his servant put them to death after him.
Ary Jonatana nananika, nandady tongotra aman-tanana, ary nanaraka azy ny mpitondra ny fiadiany. Dia lavo teo anatrehan’ i Jonatana ny Filistina, ary ny mpitondra ny fiadiany namono teo aoriany.
14 And at their first attack, Jonathan and his servant put to the sword about twenty men, all inside the space of half an acre of land.
Ary tokony ho roa-polo lahy no matiny aloha, izay novonoin’ i Jonatana sy ny mpitondra ny fiadiany tao anatin’ ny tany tokony ho antsasaky ny vavasa iray akera.
15 And there was great fear in the tents and in the field and among all the men of the armed force, and the attackers were shaking with fear; even the earth was moved with a great shaking and there was a fear as from God.
Koa nisy hovitra tao amin’ ny toby tany an-tsaha sy tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra; ary ny teo amin’ ny miaramila sy ny mpandrava nangovitra koa, ary nihorohoro ny tany, ka dia nisy fampangovitana avy tamin’ Andriamanitra.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, looking out from Geba in the land of Benjamin, saw all the army flowing away and running here and there.
Ary ny mpitilin’ i Saoly ao Gibean’ ny Benjamina dia nitazana, ka, indro, niely ny vahoaka sady nifanaritaka be ihany.
17 Then Saul said to the people who were with him, Let everyone be numbered and let us see who has gone from us. And when they had been numbered, it was seen that Jonathan and his servant were not there.
Ary hoy Saoly tamin’ ny olona teo aminy: Alaharo, ka izahao izay niala tamintsika. Ary nony voalahatra ny olona, dia Jonatana sy ny mpitondra ny fiadiany no tsy teo.
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, Let the ephod come here. For he went before Israel with the ephod at that time.
Dia hoy Saoly tamin’ i Ahia: Ento etỳ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra (fa teo amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra fahizany).
19 Now while Saul was talking to the priest, the noise in the tents of the Philistines became louder and louder; and Saul said to the priest, Take back your hand.
Ary raha Saoly mbola niresaka tamin’ ny mpisorona, dia nandroso sy nitombo ny tabataba terỳ an-tobin’ ny Filistina. Ary hoy Saoly tamin’ ny mpisorona: Aoka ihany.
20 And Saul and all the people with him came together and went forward to the fight: and every man's sword was turned against the man at his side, and there was a very great noise.
Ary Saoly sy ny vahoaka rehetra izay teo aminy nivory, ka dia tonga tany amin’ ny ady izy, ary indreo ny Filistina nifamely tamin’ ny sabany, dia izy samy izy, ka nifanaritaka be ihany.
21 Then the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines for some time, and had gone up with them to their tents, turning round were joined to those who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Ary ny Hebreo izay teo amin’ ny Filistina taloha ka niara-niakatra taminy ho any an-toby avy tamin’ ny tany manodidina dia nikambana tamin’ ny Isiraely izay teo amin’ i Saoly sy Jonatana koa.
22 And all the men of Israel who had taken cover in the hill-country of Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines had been put to flight, went after them, attacking them.
Ary ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely izay niery tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, raha nandre ny nandosiran’ ny Filistina, dia nanenjika azy fatratra koa tamin’ ny ady.
23 So the Lord made Israel safe that day: and the fight went over to Beth-aven.
Ary Jehovah namonjy ny Isiraely tamin’ izany andro izany; ary tafahoatra any Betavena ny ady.
24 And all the people were with Saul, about twenty thousand men, and the fight was general through all the hill-country of Ephraim; but Saul made a great error that day, by putting the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes food before evening comes and I have given punishment to those who are against me. So the people had not a taste of food.
Ary ory ny lehilahy amin’ ny Isiraely tamin’ izany andro izany, nefa Saoly efa nampianiana ny olona hoe: Ho voaozona anie izay olona homan-kanina anio tontolo andro mandra-pamaliko ny fahavaloko. Dia tsy nisy olona nitendry hanina na dia iray akory aza.
25 And there was honey on the face of the field, and all the people came to the honey, the bees having gone from it;
Ary ny olona rehetra amin’ ny tany dia niditra ny ala; ary nisy tantely teny ambonin’ ny tany.
26 But not a man put his hand to his mouth for fear of the curse.
Ary rehefa tonga teo anaty ala ny olona, indro, nisy tantely nitsororoka; fa tsy nisy olona sahy nanainga ny tànany ho amin’ ny vavany, fa natahotra ny fianianana izy.
27 But Jonathan, having no knowledge of the oath his father had put on the people, stretching out the rod which was in his hand, put the end of it in the honey, and put it to his mouth; then his eyes were made bright.
Fa Jonatana kosa tsy nandre ny nampianianan-drainy ny olona; koa dia narosony ny loha-tehiny teny an-tànany ka natsobony teo amin’ ny tantely, ary nataony teo am-bavany ny tànany, ka dia nazava ny masony.
28 Then one of the people said to him, Your father put the people under an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed who takes any food this day. And the people were feeble, needing food.
Ary nisy olona anankiray niteny taminy ka nanao hoe: Rainao anie ka efa nampianiana mafy ny olona hoe: Ho voaozona anie izay olona homan-kanina anio; ka efa reraka ny olona.
29 Then Jonathan said, My father has made trouble come on the land: now see how bright my eyes have become because I have taken a little of this honey.
Dia hoy Jonatana: Ikaky efa nampiditra loza tamin’ ny tany; koa jereo, masìna ianareo, he! izato fahazavan’ ny masoko tamin’ ilay nanandramako kely tamin’ ity tantely ity.
30 How much more if the people had freely taken their food from the goods of those who were fighting against them! would there not have been much greater destruction among the Philistines?
Ka mainka fa raha navela hihinanan’ ny olona ny babo azony tamin’ ny fahavalony, tsy ho nahafatesana be lavitra va ny Filistina?
31 That day they overcame the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were feeble from need of food.
Ary izy ireo namely ny Filistina tamin’ izany andro izany hatrany Mikmasy ka hatrany Aialona, ary reraka indrindra ny olona.
32 And rushing at the goods taken in the fight, the people took oxen and sheep and young oxen, and put them to death there on the earth, and had a meal, taking the flesh with the blood in it.
Dia nanaovan’ ny olona an-kazakazaka ny babo, ka naka ondry aman’ osy sy omby ary zanak’ omby izy, dia namono azy teo amin’ ny tany, ka dia nohanin’ ny olona mbamin’ ny ràny.
33 Then it was said to Saul, See, the people are sinning against the Lord, taking the blood with the flesh. And he said to those who gave him the news, Now let a great stone be rolled to me here.
Ary nisy nanambara tamin’ i Saoly hoe: Indro, ny olona manota amin’ i Jehovah, fa mihinana zavatra mbamin’ ny ràny izy. Ary hoy Saoly: Efa diso ianareo, manakodiava vato lehibe etỳ amiko anio.
34 And Saul said, Go about among the people and say to them, Let every man come here to me with his ox and his sheep, and put them to death here, and take his meal: do no sin against the Lord by taking the blood with the flesh. So all the people took their oxen with them that night and put them to death there.
Ary hoy koa izy: Mieleza eny amin’ ny olona ianareo, ka lazao aminy hoe: Samia mitondra ny ombiny etỳ amiko, ary samia mitondra ny ondriny, ka vonoy eto izy, dia hano, ary aza manota amin’ i Jehovah amin’ ny fihinanana zavatra mbamin’ ny ràny. Ary ny vahoaka rehetra samy nitondra ny ombiny niaraka taminy tamin’ izany alina izany ka namono azy teo.
35 And Saul put up an altar to the Lord: this was the first altar which he put up to the Lord.
Ary Saoly nanao alitara ho an’ i Jehovah; io no alitara voalohany naoriny ho an’ i Jehovah.
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, attacking them till the morning, till there is not a man of them living. And they said, Do whatever seems right to you. Then the priest said, Let us come near to God.
Ary hoy Saoly: Andeha isika hidina hanenjika ny Filistina anio alina ka hamabo azy ambara-pahazavan’ ny andro, ary tsy hasiantsika miangana izy. Dia hoy ny olona: Ataovy izay sitrakao. Fa hoy ny mpisorona: Andeha isika hanatona an’ Andriamanitra etoana.
37 And Saul, desiring directions from God, said, Am I to go down after the Philistines? will you give them up into the hands of Israel? But he gave him no answer that day.
Ary Saoly nanontany tamin’ Andriamanitra hoe: Hidina hanenjika ny Filistina va aho? Hatolotrao eo an-tànan’ ny Isiraely va izy? Fa tsy namaly azy akory Izy androtr’ iny.
38 And Saul said, Come near, all you chiefs of the people, and let us get word from God and see in whom is this sin today.
Ary hoy Saoly: Manatona etỳ, ianareo loholona rehetra, ary fantaro ka izahao izay nahatonga izao fahotana androany izao?
39 For, by the living Lord, the saviour of Israel, even if the sinner is Jonathan, my son, death will certainly be his fate. But not a man among all the people gave him any answer.
Fa raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay Mpamonjy ny Isiraely, dia na amin’ i Jonatana zanako aza no hahitana izany, dia ho faty tokoa izy. Fa tsy nisy namaly azy ny vahoaka rehetra.
40 Then he said to all Israel, You be on one side, and I with Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do whatever seems good to you.
Dia hoy kosa izy tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra: Hianareo no aoka ho an-daniny, ary izaho sy Jonatana zanako kosa ho an-daniny. Ary hoy ny vahoaka tamin’ i Saoly: Ataovy izay sitrakao.
41 Then Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel, Why have you not given me an answer today? If the sin is in me or in Jonathan my son, O Lord God of Israel, give Urim, and if it is in your people Israel, give Thummim. And by the decision of the Lord, Saul and Jonathan were marked out, and the people went free.
Dia hoy Saoly tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Asehoy izay marina. Ary Jonatana sy Saoly no notànany, fa afaka ny olona.
42 And Saul said, Give your decision between my son Jonathan and me. And Jonathan was taken.
Ary hoy Saoly; Manaova filokana ny amiko sy Jonatana zanako. Ary Jonatana no notànany.
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, Give me an account of what you have done. And Jonathan gave him the story and said, Certainly I took a little honey on the end of my rod; and now death is to be my fate.
Dia hoy Saoly tamin’ i Jonatana: Ambarao amiko izay nataonao. Ary Jonatana nanambara taminy hoe: Nanandrana tantely kely monja tamin’ ny tendron’ ny tehina tetỳ an-tanako aho, ary, indro, tsy maintsy ho faty aho.
44 And Saul said, May God's punishment be on me if death is not your fate, Jonathan.
Dia hoy Saoly: Hataon’ Andriamanitra toy izany anie, eny mihoatra noho izany aza, raha tsy hatao maty tokoa ianao, ry Jonatana.
45 And the people said to Saul, Is death to come to Jonathan, the worker of this great salvation for Israel? Let it not be so: by the living Lord, not one hair of his head is to be touched, for he has been working with God today. So the people kept Jonathan from death.
Fa hoy ny vahoaka tamin’ i Saoly: Ho faty va Jonatana, izay nanao izao famonjena lehibe izao tamin’ ny Isiraely? Sanatria izany! Raha velona koa Jehovah, tsy hisy na dia ny singam-bolony iray akory aza ho latsaka amin’ ny tany, fa niara-niasa tamin’ Andriamanitra izy androany. Ary ny vahoaka namonjy an’ i Jonatana, ka dia tsy maty izy.
46 Then Saul, turning back, went after the Philistines no longer: and the Philistines went back to their place.
Ary Saoly niakatra rehefa avy nanenjika ny Filistina; ary ny Filistina kosa dia lasa nankany amin’ ny taniny.
47 Now when Saul had taken his place as ruler of Israel, he made war on those who were against him on every side, Moab and the Ammonites and Edom and the kings of Zobah and the Philistines: and whichever way he went, he overcame them.
Ary Saoly nahazo ny fanjakan’ Isiraely ary niady tamin’ ny fahavalony rehetra manodidina, dia tamin’ ny Moaba sy ny taranak’ i Amona sy ny Edomita sy ny mpanjakan’ i Zoba ary ny Filistina; ary izay nalehany rehetra dia resiny avokoa.
48 And he did great things, and overcame the Amalekites, and made Israel safe from the hands of their attackers.
Ary namory miaramila izy, dia namely ny Amalekita ka namonjy ny Isiraely tamin’ ny tànan’ izay namaboazy.
49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan and Ishvi and Malchi-shua; and these are the names of his daughters: the older was named Merab and the younger Michal;
Ary izao no zanakalahin’ i Saoly: Jonatana sy Jisvy sy Malkisoa; izao kosa no anaran’ ny zananivavy roa: ny anaran’ ny vavimatoa Meraba, ary ny anaran’ ny faravavy Mikala.
50 The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; the captain of his army was Abner, the son of Ner, brother of Saul's father.
Ary ny anaran’ ny vadin’ i Saoly dia Ahinoama, zanakavavin’ i Ahimaza: ary ny anaran’ ny komandin’ ny miaramilany dia Abnera, zanak’ i Nera, rahalahin-drain’ i Saoly.
51 Kish, the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, were sons of Abiel.
Ary Kisy no rain’ i Saoly; ary Nera, rain’ i Abnera, dia zanak’ i Abiela.
52 All through the life of Saul there was bitter war against the Philistines; and whenever Saul saw any strong man or any good fighting man, he kept him near himself.
Ary mafy ny ady tamin’ ny Filistina tamin’ ny andron’ i Saoly rehetra; koa raha nisy olona matanjaka sy mahery hitan’ i Saoly, dia nalainy ho azy.
