< Kings I 6 >

1 And the ark was seven months in the country of the Philistines, and their land brought forth swarms of mice.
Ita, pito a bulan nga adda iti pagilian dagiti Filisteo ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh.
2 And the Philistines call their priests, and their prophets, and their enchanters, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the Lord? teach us wherewith we shall send it away to its place.
Ket pinaayaban dagiti Filisteo dagiti papadi ken dagiti mammadles; kinunada kadakuada, “Ania ti rumbeng nga aramidenmi iti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh? Ibagayo kadakami no kasano ti panangisublimi iti daytoy iti bukodna a pagilian.”
3 And they said, If you send away the ark of the covenant of the Lord God of Israel, do not on any account send it away empty, but by all means render to it an offering for the plague; and then shall you be healed, and an atonement shall be made for you: should not his hand be [thus] stayed from off you?
Kinuna dagiti papadi ken dagiti mammadles, “No isubliyo ti lakasa ti tulag ti Dios ti Israel, saanyo nga ipatulod daytoy a saan a mapakuyogan iti sagut; masapul a pakuyoganyo daytoy iti daton a pangsupapak iti basol. Ket umimbagkayonto, ket maammoanyonto no apay a pagsagsagabaennakayo agingga ita.”
4 And they say, What [is] the offering for the plague [which] we shall return to it? and they said,
Ket kinunada, “Ania ti umno a daton a pangsupapak iti basol nga ipakuyogmi iti isublimi kenkuana?” Insungbatda, “Lima a balitok a sinan-letteg ken lima a balitok a sinan-marabutit, lima a kas iti bilang dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti Filisteo. Ta isu met laeng a didigra ti nangparigat kadakayo ken kadagiti mangidadauloyo.
5 According to the number of the lords of the Philistines, five golden tumours, for the plague was on you, and on your rulers, and on the people; and golden mice, the likeness of the mice that destroy your land: and you shall give glory to the Lord, that he may lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
Isu a masapul a mangaramidkayo kadagiti sinan-letteg, ken sinan-marabutit a mangdaddadael iti daga, ken padayawanyo ti Dios ti Israel. Mabalin nga isardengnan ti panangdusdusana kadakayo, kadagiti diosyo, ken iti dagayo.
6 And why do you harden your hearts, as Egypt and Pharao hardened their hearts? [was it] not [so] when he mocked them, [that] they let the people go, and they departed?
Apay a patangkenenyo dagiti pusoyo, a kas iti panangpatangken dagiti taga-Egipto ken ti Faraon kadagiti pusoda? Dayta ket idi dinusa ida ti Dios ti Israel iti nakaro; saan kadi a pinalubosan dagiti taga-Egipto dagiti tattao, ket pimmanawda?
7 And now take wood and make a new wagon, and take two cows, that have calved for the first time, without their calves; and do you yoke the cows to the wagon, and lead away the calves from behind them home.
Ita ngarud, mangisaganakayo iti baro a kariton nga addaan iti dua nga agpaspasuso a baka, a saan pay pulos a naipako. Ipakoyo dagiti baka iti kariton, ngem iyawidyo dagiti urbonda, adayo manipud kadakuada.
8 And you shall take the ark and put it on the wagon; and you shall restore to it the golden articles for the trespass-offering in a coffer by the side of it: and you shall let it go, and sent it away, and you shall depart.
Ket alaenyo ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh ket ikabilyo daytoy iti kariton. Iti abayna, ikabilyo ti kahon a pangikabilanyo kadagiti nahorma a balitok a banbanag nga ipakuyogyo iti isubliyo kenkuana a kas daton a pangsupapak iti basolyo. Ket bay-anyo ida a mapan nga is-isuda.
9 And you shall see, if it shall go the way of its coasts along by Baethsamys, he has brought upon us this great affliction; and if not, then shall we know that his hand has not touched us, but this [is a] chance [which] has happened to us.
Kalpasanna siputanyo daytoy; no sumang-at daytoy iti dalan nga agturong idiay Bet-semes a bukodna a daga, ni Yahweh ngarud ti nangyeg iti daytoy a dakkel a didigra. Ngem no saan, maammoantayo ngarud a saan a ti imana ti nangparigat kadatayo; ngem ketdi, maammoantayo a nairana laeng a napasamak kadatayo daytoy.”
10 And the Philistines did so; and they took two cows that had calved for the first time, and yoked them to the waggon, and shut up their calves at home.
Inaramid dagiti tattao ti naibaga kadakuada; nangalada iti dua nga agpaspasuso a baka ket impakoda dagitoy iti kariton, ket impupokda dagiti urbonda iti balay.
11 And they set the ark of the Lord, and the coffer, and the golden mice, on the waggon.
Inkabilda ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh iti kariton, agraman ti kahon a naglaon iti balitok a sinan-marabutit ken sinan-letteg.
12 And the cows went straight on the way to the way of Baethsamys, they went along one track; and laboured, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left, and the lords of the Philistines went after it as far as the coasts of Baethsamys.
Nagturong dagiti baka iti agpa-Betsemes. Nagnada iti maymaysa a dalan, agem-emmakda bayat a mapmapanda, ket saanda a simmiasi iti makannawan wenno iti makannigid. Sinurot ida dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti Filisteo agingga idiay beddeng ti Betsemes.
13 And the men of Baethsamys were reaping the wheat harvest in the valley; and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark of the Lord, and rejoiced to meet it.
Ita, agan-ani dagiti tattao iti Betsemes kadagiti trigoda idiay tanap. Idi kimmitada, nakitada ti lakasa ti tulag ket nagrag-oda.
14 And the waggon entered into the field of Osee, which was in Baethsamys, and they set there by it a great stone; and they split the wood of the waggon, and offered up the cows for a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Dimteng ti kariton iti talon ni Josue manipud iti ili ti Betsemes ket nagsardeng sadiay. Adda dakkel a bato sadiay, ket binalsigda ti kariton, ket indatonda dagiti baka a kas daton a mapuoran para kenni Yahweh.
15 And the Levites brought up the ark of the Lord, and the coffer with it, and the golden articles upon it, and placed them on the great stone, and the men of Baethsamys offered whole burnt offerings and meat offerings on that day to the Lord.
Imbaba dagiti Levita ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh ken ti kahon nga adda iti daytoy, a nakaikargaan dagiti nahorma a balitok a banbanag, ket inkabilda dagitoy iti dakkel a bato. Nangidatag dagiti tattao iti Betsemes kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken nangidatonda kenni Yahweh iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw.
16 And the five lords of the Philistines saw, and returned to Ascalon in that day.
Idi nakita daytoy dagiti lima a mangidadaulo kadagiti Filisteo, nagsublida idiay Ekron iti dayta nga aldaw.
17 And these [are] the golden tumours which the lords of the Philistines gave as a trespass-offering to the Lord; for Azotus one, for Gaza one, for Ascalon one, for Geth one, for Accaron one.
Dagitoy dagiti balitok a sinan-letteg nga impakuyog dagiti Filisteo iti isublida para iti daton a pangsupapak iti basol kenni Yahweh; maysa para iti Asdod, maysa para iti Gaza, maysa iti Askelon, maysa iti Gat, ken maysa para iti Ekron.
18 And the golden mice according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines, belonging to the five lords, from the fenced city to the village of the Pherezite, and to the great stone, on which they placed the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that was in the field of Osee the Baethsamysite.
Naipada ti bilang dagiti balitok a sinan-marabutit iti bilang dagiti amin a siudad dagiti Filisteo a kukua dagiti lima a mangidadaulo, dagiti natalged a siudad ken dagiti barbario iti dayta a pagilian. Ti dakkel a bato, iti igid a nangikabilanda iti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh, ket nagtalinaed a saksi agingga kadagitoy nga aldaw iti talon ni Josue a taga-Betsemes.
19 And the sons of Jechonias were not pleased with the men of Baethsamys, because they saw the ark of the Lord; and [the Lord] struck amongst them seventy men, and fifty thousand men: and the people mourned, because the Lord had inflicted on the people, a very great plague.
Dinusa ni Yahweh dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti tattao iti Betsemes gapu ta kimmitada iti uneg ti lakasa ti tulagna. Pinatayna ti pitopulo a tattao. Nagladingit dagiti tattao, gapu ta dinusa ni Yahweh dagiti tattao iti nakaro.
20 And the men of Baethsamys said, Who shall be able to pass before this holy Lord God? and to whom shall the ark of the Lord go up from us?
Kinuna dagiti tattao iti Betsemes, “Siasino ti makabael a tumakder iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, daytoy a nasantoan a Dios? Ket siasino ti papananna manipud kadatayo?”” Siasino ti makabael a tumakder iti sangoanan ti Apo, daytoy a nasantoan a Dios? Ken siasino ti papanan ti lakasa ti tulag manipud ditoy?”
21 And they send messengers to the inhabitants of Cariathiarim, saying, The Philistines have brought back the ark of the Lord, go down and take it home to yourselves.
Nangibaonda kadagiti mensahero kadagiti agnanaed idiay Kiryat-Jearim a kunkunada, “Insubli dagiti Filisteo ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh; sumalogkayo ket alaenyo daytoy.”
