1 Samuel 9
1 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a Benjamite, a mighty man of valor.
Adda maysa a lalaki manipud Benjamin, maysa a mararaem a lalaki. Ti naganna ket Kis a putot ni Abiel, ni Abiel ket putot ni Zeror a putot ni Becorat, ni Becorat ket putot ni Afia, nga anak ti maysa a Benjamita.
2 He had a son, whose name was Saul, a handsome young man; and there was no one among the children of Israel more handsome than he was. From his shoulders and upward he was taller than any of the people.
Addaan isuna iti anak a lalaki nga agnagan iti Saul, nataer a baro. Awanen ti natataer ngem isuna kadagiti tattao ti Israel. Panggat-abagana dagiti dadduma, nataytayag isuna ngem iti siasinoman kadagiti tattao.
3 Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, "Take now one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the donkeys." So Saul got up and took one of the servants of his father with him and went to look for the donkeys of his father Kish.
Ita, dagiti asno ni Kis nga ama ni Saul ket mapukpukaw. Isu a kinuna ni Kis kenni Saul nga anakna, “Mangitugotka iti maysa kadagiti adipen; agrubbuatka ket mapanyo biroken dagiti asno.”
4 He passed through the hill country of Ephraim and passed through the land of Shalishah, but they did not find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaalim, but they weren't there. Then he passed through the land of the Jaminites, but they did not find them.
Isu a sinursor ni Saul ti turod a pagilian ti Efraim ket napan iti daga ti Salisa, ngem saanda a nasarakan dagitoy. Ket sinursorda ti daga ti Salim, ngem awanda sadiay. Ket sinursorda ti daga dagiti Benjamita, ngem saanda a nasarakan dagitoy.
5 When they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, and let us return, lest my father stop caring about the donkeys, and be anxious for us."
Idi nakadanonda iti daga ti Suf, kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna a kaduana, “Umayka, agsublitan, ta imbes a dagiti asno ti pagdanagan ti amak, saanen ta amangan no datan a dua ti pagdandanaganna.”
6 He said to him, "See now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is a man who is held in honor. All that he says surely comes to pass. Now let us go there. Perhaps he can tell us concerning our journey on which we have set out."
Ngem kinuna ti adipen kenkuana, “Dumngegka, adda maysa a tao ti Dios iti daytoy a siudad. Maysa isuna a lalaki a mararaem; amin nga ibagana ket pumudno. Mapanta idiay; mabalin nga maibagana kadata ti dalan a rumbeng a papananta iti panagdaliasatta.”
7 Then Saul said to his servant, "But look, if we go, what shall we bring the man? For the bread is gone in our vessels, and there is no gift to bring to the man of God. What do we have?"
Ket kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna, “Ngem no mapanta, ania ti maiyegta iti lalaki? Ta naibusen ti tinapay iti supotta, ket awan ti sagut a maiyegta iti tao ti Dios. Ania ti adda kadata?”
8 The servant answered Saul again, and said, "Look, I have in my hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver. I will give that to the man of God, to tell us our way."
Simmungbat ti adipen kenni Saul a kunana, “Adtoy, addaanak iti apagkapat ti pirak a siklo nga itedko iti tao ti Dios, tapno ibagana kadata no sadino ti rumbeng a papananta.”
9 (In earlier times in Israel, whenever someone went to inquire of God, he would say, "Come, and let us go to the seer"; for he who is now called a prophet was formerly called a seer.)
(Idi un-unana iti Israel, no kasta nga adda tao a mapan agdamag iti pagayatan ti Dios, kunana, “Umayka, mapanta iti ayan ti mammadto.” Ta dagiti profeta ita a tiempo ket maaw-awagan idi iti mammadto.)
10 Then Saul said to his servant, "Well said. Come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.
Ket kinuna ni Saul iti adipenna, “Nasayaat ti imbagam. Umayka, mapantan.” Isu a napanda iti siudad nga ayan ti tao ti Dios.
11 As they went up the ascent to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said to them, "Is the seer here?"
Bayat a sumangsang-atda iti turod nga agturong iti siudad, nakasabatda kadagiti babbalasang a mapan sumakdo iti danum; kinuna ni Saul ken ti adipenna kadakuada, “Adda kadi ditoy ti mammadto?”
12 They answered them, and said, "He is. Look, he is ahead of you. Hurry now, for he has come today into the city; for the people have a sacrifice today in the high place.
Simmungbatda ket kinunada, “Wen adda isuna; kitaenyo, immun-una laeng isuna ngem kadakayo. Darasenyo, ta mapan isuna ita idiay siudad ta mangidaton ita dagiti tattao idiay nangato a disso.
13 As soon as you have come into the city, you shall immediately find him, before he goes up to the high place to eat; for the people will not eat until he comes, because he blesses the sacrifice; afterward those who are invited eat. Now therefore go up; for at this time you shall find him."
Apaman a makastrekkayo iti siudad, masarakanyo isuna, sakbay a sumang-at isuna iti nangato a disso tapno mangan. Saan a mangan dagiti tattao agingga a sumangpet isuna, gapu ta bendisionanna ti daton; kalpasanna, manganto dagiti naawis. Sumang-atkayo itan, ta masarakanyo isuna a dagus.”
14 They went up to the city. As they came within the city, look, Samuel came out toward them, to go up to the high place.
Isu a simmang-atda idiay siudad. Iti iseserrekda iti siudad, nakitada ni Samuel a sumungsungad nga agturong kadakuada, a mapan iti nangato a disso.
15 Now the LORD had revealed to Samuel a day before Saul came, saying,
Ita, ti aldaw sakbay nga immay ni Saul, imbagan ni Yahweh kenni Samuel;
16 "Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man out of the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be prince over my people Israel; and he shall save my people out of the hand of the Philistines; for I have seen the suffering of my people, because their cry has come to me."
“Inton bigat iti kastoy met laeng nga oras, ibaonkonto kenka ti maysa a lalaki manipud iti daga ti Benjamin, ket pulotamto isuna nga agbalin a prinsipe dagiti amin a tattaok nga Israel. Isalakannanto dagiti tattaok iti ima dagiti Filisteo. Ta maasianak kadagiti tattaok gapu ta dimmanon kaniak dagiti asugda a dumawdawat iti tulong.”
17 When Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, "Look, the man of whom I spoke to you. This one shall have authority over my people."
Idi nakita ni Samuel ni Saul, kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Adtoy ti lalaki nga imbagak kenka! Isuna ti mangituray kadagiti tattaok.”
18 Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, "Please tell me where the seer's house is."
Ket immasideg ni Saul kenni Samuel iti ruangan ket kinunana, “Mabalin kadi nga ibagam kaniak no sadino ti balay ti mammadto?”
19 And Samuel answered Saul, and said, "I am he. Go up before me to the high place, for you will eat with me today. In the morning I will let you go, and will tell you all that is in your heart.
Simmungbat ni Samuel kenni Saul ket kinunana, 'Siak ti mammadto. Umunakan a sumang-at idiay nangato a disso, ta makipanganka kaniak ita nga aldaw. Palubosankanto a pumanaw inton bigat, ket ibagakto kenka amin a banag nga adda iti panunotmo.
20 As for your donkeys who were lost three days ago, do not set your mind on them; for they have been found. And for whom does all Israel desire? Is it not for you, and for all your father's house?"
No maipapan kadagiti asnoyo a napukaw, tallo nga aldawen ti napalabas, saanyo ida a pakadanagan, ta nasapulanen dagitoy. Ket siasino koma ngay ti sabali a kayat ti Israel? Saan kadi a sika ken iti amin a sangkabalayan ti amam?”
21 Saul answered, "Am I not a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? And my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then do you speak to me like this?"
Simmungbat ni Saul ket kinunana, “Saan kadi a maysaak a Benjamita, manipud iti kababassitan a tribu ti Israel? Saan kadi a ti pulik ti kababaan kadagiti amin a puli ti tribu ti Benjamin? Apay ngarud a kastoy ti wagas ti panagsaom kaniak?”
22 Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the guest room, and made them sit in the best place among those who were invited, who were about thirty persons.
Isu nga inkuyog ni Samuel ni Saul ken ti adipenna, impanna ida idiay dakkel a kuarto, ket pinagtugawna ida iti kangrunaan a tugaw dagiti naawis, nga aggarup tallopulo a tattao.
23 And Samuel said to the cook, "Bring the portion which I gave you, of which I told you to set aside."
Kinuna ni Samuel iti kusinero, “Iyegmo ti paset nga intedko kenka, nga imbagak kenka, 'Ilasinmo daytoy.'”
24 The cook picked up the leg, and that which was attached to it, and set it before Saul. And he said, "Look, here is what has been kept for you. Set it before you and eat, because it was kept especially for you until the right time; because I said, 'I have invited the people.'" So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
Isu nga innala ti kusinero ti luppo a nailasin iti daton ken ti adda iti daytoy, ket indasarna iti sangoanan ni Saul. Ket kinuna ni Samuel, “Daytoy ti naidulin para kenka! Kanem daytoy, gapu ta nailasinen daytoy a para kenka sakbay pay iti naituding a tiempo a panangawisko kadagiti tattao. Isu a nakipangan ni Saul kenni Samuel iti dayta nga aldaw.
25 When they had come down from the high place into the city, they prepared a bed for Saul on the roof,
Idi simmalogda idiay siudad manipud iti nangato a disso, nakisarita ni Samuel kenni Saul iti tuktok ti balay.
26 and he slept. And it happened about daybreak that Samuel called to Saul on the roof, saying, "Get up, that I may send you away." So Saul arose, and they went out, both of them, he and Samuel, outside.
Ket iti parbangon, inayaban ni Samuel ni Saul nga adda iti tuktok ti balay ket kinunana, “Bumangonkan, tapno maparubuatanka.” Isu a bimmangon ni Saul, ket nagkuyogda kenni Samuel a napan iti kalsada.
27 As they were going down at the edge of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant that he should pass on before us and cross over. But you remain here awhile, that I may make known to you the word of God."
Bayat a mapmapanda iti ruar ti siudad, kinuna ni Samuel kenni Saul, “Ibagam iti adipen nga umun-una ngem kadata (ket immun-una isuna), ngem agtalinaedka pay ditoy iti apagbiit, tapno maibagak ti mensahe ti Dios kenka.”
