1 Samuel 13
1 Ɛberɛ a Saulo dii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduasa. Na ɔdii adeɛ mfirinhyia aduanan mmienu.
Saul was a child of o yeer whanne he bigan to regne; forsothe he regnede on Israel twei yeer.
2 Saulo yii akodɔm sononko bi a wɔn dodoɔ yɛ mpensa firii Israel, na ɔmaa nkaeɛ no kɔɔ efie. Ɔfaa akodɔm no mu mpenu kaa ne ho, de wɔn kɔɔ Mikmas ne bepɔ nsase a ɛwɔ Bet-El no so. Akodɔm apem a aka no kaa Saulo babarima Yonatan ho kɔɔ Gibea wɔ Benyamin asase so.
And Saul chees to hym thre thousynde of Israel, and twei thousynde weren with Saul in Machynas, in the hil of Bethel; forsothe a thousynde weren with Jonathas in Gabaath of Beniamyn; sotheli he sente ayen the tother puple ech man in to `hise tabernaclis.
3 Yei akyi no, ankyɛre, Yonatan kɔtuaa Filistifoɔ asraafoɔ no dii wɔn so wɔ Geba. Asɛm no trɛɛ ntɛm so wɔ Filistifoɔ no mu. Enti Saulo hyɛn torobɛnto wɔ Israel nyinaa sɛ, “Hebrifoɔ, monsɔre!”
And Jonathas smoot the stacioun of Filisteis, that was in Gabaa. And whanne Filisteis hadden herd this, Saul sownede with a clarioun in al the lond, and seide, Ebreys here.
4 Israelfoɔ nyinaa tee sɛ Saulo atɔre Filistifoɔ asraafoɔ a wɔwɔ Geba no ase, na ne saa enti, Israelfoɔ ho ayɛ Filistifoɔ no ahi. Enti, Israel akodɔm no nyinaa boaa wɔn ho ano bio hyiaa Saulo wɔ Gilgal.
And al Israel herde siche a fame, Saul smoot the stacioun of Filisteis; and Israel reiside hym silf ayens Filisteis; therfor the puple criede after Saul in Galgala.
5 Filistifoɔ boaboaa asraadɔm kɛseɛ pa ara ano a wɔkura nteaseɛnam mpensa, apɔnkɔsotefoɔ mpem nsia ne akodɔm a wɔn dodoɔ te sɛ mpoano anwea ano. Wɔkyeree sraban wɔ Mikmas wɔ Bet-Awen apueeɛ fam.
And Filisteis weren gaderid to fiyte ayens Israel; `of Filisteis weren thretti thousynde of charis, and sixe thousynde of knyytis, and the tother comyn puple, as grauel `which is ful myche in the brynke of the see; and thei stieden, and settiden tentis in Machynas, at the eest of Bethauen.
6 Ɛberɛ a Israel mmarima no hunuu atamfoɔ no akodɔm mpempem no, wɔn ho dwodwoeɛ enti, wɔyɛɛ sɛ wɔbɛkɔ akɔsuma wɔn ho wɔ abodan, mmena, abotan, aboda ne nsukoraeɛ mu.
And whanne men of Israel hadden seyn this, that thei weren set in streiytnesse, for the puple was turmentid, thei hidden hem silf in dennes, and in priuey places, and in stonys, and in dychis, and in cisternes.
7 Ebinom twaa Asubɔnten Yordan dwane kɔɔ Gad ne Gilead asase so. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Saulo wɔ Gilgal a ne mmarima a wɔka ne ho no wɔ ahopopoɔ ne suro mu.
Sotheli Ebreis passiden Jordan in to the lond of Gad and of Galaad. And whanne Saul was yit in Galgala, al the puple was aferd that suede hym.
8 Ɔdii nnanson wɔ hɔ sɛdeɛ Samuel hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnni no; nanso, Samuel deɛ, wamma Gilgal, na Saulo hunuu sɛ mmarima no rebɔ pete.
And seuene daies he abood Samuel bi couenaunt, and Samuel cam not in to Galgala; and the puple yede a wei fro Saul.
9 Enti, ɔhyɛɛ sɛ, “Momfa ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ no mmrɛ me.” Na Saulo ankasa bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no.
Therfor Saul seide, Brynge ye to me brent sacrifice, and pesible sacrifices; and he offride brent sacrifice.
10 Ɔrewie afɔdeɛ no bɔ ara pɛ, na Samuel kɔduruu hɔ. Enti, Saulo pue kɔhyiaa no maa no akwaaba.
And whanne he hadde endid offrynge brent sacrifice, lo! Samuel cam; and Saul yede out ayens hym, to greete Samuel.
11 Samuel bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na woayɛ yi?” Saulo buaa sɛ, “Mehunuu sɛ mmarima no rehwete, na womma no, na Filistifoɔ no nso reboa wɔn ho ano wɔ Mikmas no,
And Samuel spak to hym, What hast thou do? Saul answeride, For Y siy that the puple yede awei fro me, and thou camest not bi the daies of couenaunt; certis Filisteis weren gaderid in Machynas;
12 medwenee sɛ, ‘Afei deɛ, Filistifoɔ no bɛsiane abɛtoa me wɔ Gilgal, nanso memmisaa Awurade nkyɛn adom.’ Enti, metee nka sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ mebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ansa na woaba.”
Y seide, Now Filisteis schulen come doun to me in to Galgala, and Y haue not plesyd the face of the Lord; Y was compellid bi nede, and Y offryde brent sacrifice to the Lord.
13 Na Samuel kaa sɛ, “Woadi nkwaseasɛm. Woanni mmara a Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, hyɛɛ wo no so. Sɛ wodii so a, anka ɔbɛtim wʼahennie ase wɔ Israel afebɔɔ.
And Samuel seide to Saul, Thou hast do folili, and thou `keptist not the heestis of thi Lord God, whiche he comaundide to thee; and if thou haddist not do this thing, riyt now the Lord hadde maad redi thi rewme on Israel with outen ende;
14 Na seesei, wʼahennie no rentim. Awurade apɛ ɔbarima bi a ɔyɛ nʼakoma apɛdeɛ na wɔayi no sɛ ne nkurɔfoɔ ɔkannifoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, woanni Awurade mmara no so.”
but thi rewme schal not rise ferthere. The Lord hath souyt a man to hym silf after his herte; and the Lord comaundide to hym, that he schulde be duyk on his puple, for thou keptist not tho thingis whiche the Lord comaundide.
15 Na Samuel firii Gilgal kɔɔ ne baabi na akodɔm no nkaeɛ no ne Saulo kɔhyiaa atamfoɔ no. Wɔfiri Gilgal kɔɔ Gibea a ɛwɔ Benyamin asase so. Saulo kanee mmarima a na wɔka ne ho no, na wɔn ano si aha nsia.
Forsothe Samuel roos, and stiede fro Galgala in to Gabaa of Beniamyn; and the `residue puplis stieden after Saul ayens the puple which fouyten ayens hem; and thei camen fro Galgala in to Gabaa, in the hil of Beniamyn. And Saul noumbride the puple, that weren foundun with hym as sixe hundrid men.
16 Na Saulo ne ne babarima Yonatan ne mmarima a ɛka ne ho no te Geba a ɛbɛn Gibea wɔ Benyamin asase so. Saa ɛberɛ no na Filistifoɔ no akyere sraban wɔ Mikmas.
And Saul, and Jonathas his sone, and the puple that was foundun with hem, was in Gabaa of Beniamyn; forsothe Filisteis saten togidere in Machynas.
17 Ntohyɛsofoɔ akuo mmiɛnsa firii Filistifoɔ sraban mu. Ekuo baako de nʼani kyerɛɛ Ofra ɛkwan so, kɔɔ Sual mpɔtam hɔ.
And thre cumpanyes yeden out of the `castels of Filisteis to take prey; o cumpany yede ayens the weie of Effraym to the lond of Saul;
18 Afoforɔ faa Bet-Horon kwan so ɛnna wɔn a wɔka ho nso faa ɛhyeɛ a ɛkyerɛ Seboim bɔnhwa no kwan so, kɔɔ ɛserɛ so fam.
sothely an other cumpeny entride bi the weie of Bethoron; forsothe the thridde cumpenye turnede it silf to the weie of the terme in the lond of Sabaa; and that terme neiyeth to the valey of Seboym ayens the deseert.
19 Saa ɛberɛ no, na ɔtomfoɔ biara nni Israel asase no so baabiara. Filistifoɔ no amma atomfoɔ no kwan, ɛfiri sɛ, wosusuu sɛ atomfoɔ no bɛbɔ akofena ne mpea ama Hebrifoɔ no.
Forsothe `no smyyth of yrun was foundun in al the lond of Israel; for Filisteis `weren war, ether eschewiden, lest perauenture Ebreis maden a swerd ether a spere.
20 Enti, na Israelfoɔ no nyinaa kɔ Filistifoɔ nkyɛn kɔse wɔn funtum nnadeɛ, nsɔ, nkuma ne dɔtetuo nnadeɛ ano.
Therfor al Israel yede doun to Filisteis, that ech man schulde scharpe his schar, and picoise, and ax, `and sarpe;
21 (Na wɔgye funtum nnadeɛ ne asosɔ a wɔse no biara ho dwetɛ gram nwɔtwe, na sɛ wɔse mmonnua anaa nnadeɛ a, wogye dwetɛ gram ɛnan.)
`and so alle egis weren bluntid `of scharris, and of picoisis, and of `forkis of thre teeth, and of axis, `til to a pricke to be amendid.
22 Ɛno enti na Israelfoɔ no mu biara nni akofena anaa pea, gye sɛ Saulo ne Yonatan.
And whanne the dai of batel cam, no swerd and spere was foundun in the hond of al the puple that was with Saul and Jonathas, outakun Saul, and Jonathas his sone.
23 Saa ɛberɛ no mu, na Filistifoɔ asraafoɔ no fa bi akɔ akɔfa tempɔn a ɛda Mikmas no.
Forsothe the stacioun of Filisteis yede out, that it schulde passe in to Machynas.
