I Samuel 17

Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle, and were gathered together at Shochoh, which belongeth to Judah, and pitched between Shochoh and Azekah, in Ephes–dammim.

Ary ny Filistina namory ny miaramilany hiady, ka tafavory tao Soko any Joda izy ary nitoby teo anelanelan'i Soko sy Azeka, dia tao Efesa-damima.

And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and pitched by the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.

Ary Saoly sy ny lehilahy amin'ny Isiraely dia tafavory ka nitoby teo amin'ny lohasaha Elaha ary nilahatra hiady amin'ny Filistina.

And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

Ary ny Filistina dia teo am-pita teo amin'ny tendrombohitra iray, ary ny Isiraely kosa teo am-pita teo amin'ny tendrombohitra iray, ary lohasaha no elanelany.

And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

Ary nisy lehilahy iray mpihantsy ady nivoaka avy teny amin'ny tobin'ny Filistina, Goliata avy any Gata no anarany; enina hakiho sy irain-jehy no halavany

And he had an helmet of brass upon his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.

Ary nisatroka fiarovan-doha varahina izy, ary niakanjo fiarovan-tratra, ka ny lanjan'ny akanjony varahina dia dimy arivo sekely.

And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders.

Ary nanao fiarovan-dranjo varahina tamin'ny tongony izy ary lefom-pohy varahina teo an-damosiny.

And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him.

Ary ny haben'ny zaran-defony dia tahaka ny vodi-tenon'ny mpanenona; ary ny lela-lefony dia vy lanjan-tsekely enin-jato; ary nisy nitondra ny ampinga lehibe nandeha teo alohany.

And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me.

Ary nijanona izy, dia niantso ny miaramilan'ny Isiraely ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana ianareo no mivoaka hilahatra hiady? Tsy Filistina va aho, ary ianareo kosa mpanompon'i Saoly? Mifidiana lehilahy iray ianareo, ary aoka izy hidina etỳ amiko.

If he be able to fight with me, and to kill me, then will we be your servants: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then shall ye be our servants, and serve us.

Raha tàhiny maharesy ahy izy ka mahafaty ahy, dia ho mpanomponareo izahay; fa raha resiko kosa izy ka matiko, dia ho mpanomponay ianareo ka hanompo anay.

And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.

Ary hoy ilay Filistina: Izaho efa nihaika ny miaramilan'ny Isiraely androany; amoahy lehilahy iray aho hiady amiko.

When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.

Ary raha ren'i Saoly sy ny Isiraely rehetra izany tenin'ilay Filistina izany, dia nivadi-po izy ka raikitahotra loatra.

Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Beth–lehem–judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons: and the man went among men for an old man in the days of Saul.

Ary Davida dia zanak'ilay Efratita avy any Betlehema-joda atao hoe Jese, izay nanana zanaka valo mirahalahy; ary Jese dia efa zokiolona sy anti-panahy tamin'ny andron'i Saoly;

And the three eldest sons of Jesse went and followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next unto him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

ary ny zokiny telo lahy tamin'ny zanak'i Jese lasa nanaraka an'i Saoly nankany an-tafika; ary ny anaran'ny zanany telo lahy lasa nankany an-tafika dia Eliaba, lahimatoa, sy Abinadaba, lahiaivo, ary Sama no fahatelony;

And David was the youngest: and the three eldest followed Saul.

ary Davida no faralahy; ary izy telo lahy zokiny lasa nanaraka an'i Saoly;

But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Beth–lehem.

fa Davida kosa nivoivoy avy tany amin'i Saoly hiandry ny ondrin-drainy tany Betlehema.

And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.

Ary ilay Filistina nanatona marain-tsy hariva ka niseho efa-polo andro.

And Jesse said unto David his son, Take now for thy brethren an ephah of this parched corn, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren;

Ary hoy Jese tamin'i Davida zanany: Ento ity lango eran'ny efaha ity sy ireto mofo folo ireto ho an'ny rahalahinao; ka dia atero faingana ho any an-toby ho any amin'ny rahalahinao.

And carry these ten cheeses unto the captain of their thousand, and look how thy brethren fare, and take their pledge.

Ary ento ho an'ny mpifehy arivony ireto fromazy didiny folo ireto, dia izahao na tsara ihany ny rahalahinao, na manao ahoana, ary itondray izay hahafantarako ny toeny aho.

Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

Ary Saoly sy izy telo lahy mbamin'ny lehilahy rehetra amin'ny Isiraely dia teo amin'ny lohasaha Elaha niady tamin'ny Filistina.

And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the trench, as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battle.

Dia nifoha maraina koa Davida ka namela ny ondriny hotandreman'olona, ary naka ny entany izy ka lasa nandeha araka ny nandidian'i Jese azy; ary tonga teo amin'ny sehatra-sariety izy; ary ny antokon'ny miaramila izay efa hivoaka hilahatra dia nanakora hiady tamin'izay.

For Israel and the Philistines had put the battle in array, army against army.

Fa ny Isiraely sy ny Filistina efa nilahatra hiady ka nifanatrika ny miaramila.

And David left his carriage in the hand of the keeper of the carriage, and ran into the army, and came and saluted his brethren.

Ary Davida namela ny entany teo anilan'ny mpiambina entana, dia nihazakazaka nankeny amin'ny laharan'ny miaramila, ary tonga ka nanontany ny amin'izay toetry ny rahalahiny.

And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them.

Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy izy, indro, tamy niakatra avy teo amin'ny laharan'ny miaramilan'ny Filistina ilay mpihantsy ady, lehilahy Filistina avy any Gata, Goliata no anarany; ary niteny tahaka ny teo aloha ihany izy ka ren'i Davida.

And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.

ary ny lehilahy rehetra amin'ny Isiraely, raha nahita io lehilahy io, dia nandositra azy, fa natahotra indrindra izy.

And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

Ary hoy ny lehilahy amin'ny Isiraely: Efa hitanareo va io lehilahy miakatra io? Hihaika ny Isiraely no iakarany; koa izay lehilahy mahafaty io dia hataon'ny mpanjaka manan-karem-bevava, ary dia homeny koa ny zananivavy ho vadiny, sady tsy hampandoavin-ketra amin'ny Isiraely ny tarana-drainy.

And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?

Ary hoy Davida tamin'ny olona teo anilany: Ahoana sy ahoana ange no hatao amin'izay lehilahy mahafaty io Filistina io ka mahafa-tondromaso ny Isiraely? Fa zinona moa io Filistina tsy mifora io, no dia hihaika ny miaramilan'Andriamanitra velona?

And the people answered him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that killeth him.

Ary ny olona namaly hoe: Izany ka izany no hatao amin'izay lehilahy mahafaty azy.

And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.

Ary Eliaba zokiny nandre azy niteny tamin'ny olona dia nirehitra tamin'i Davida ny fahatezerany, ka hoy izy: Nahoana ianao no midina etỳ? Ary amin'iza moa no namelanao ireny ondry vitsy ireny any an-efitra? fantatro ny avonavonao sy ny faharatsian'ny fonao, fa hizaha ny ady no idinanao etỳ.

And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?

Ary hoy Davida: Moa maninona aho izao? Mba miteny aho, ka nahoana moa?

And he turned from him toward another, and spake after the same manner: and the people answered him again after the former manner.

Ary niala teo aminy hankany amin'ny sasany koa izy ka niteny tahaka ny teo; ary ny olona namaly azy tahaka ny teo ihany indray.

And when the words were heard which David spake, they rehearsed them before Saul: and he sent for him.

Ary nony ren'ny olona ny teny izay nataon'i Davida, dia nambarany tamin'i Saoly; ka dia naniraka naka azy izy.

And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.

Ary hoy Davida tamin'i Saoly: Aoka tsy ho ketraka amin'ilehio ny fon'ny olona; fa ny mpanomponao handeha hiady amin'io Filistina io.

And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.

Fa hoy Saoly tamin'i Davida: Tsy tohanao ny handeha hiady amin'io Filistina io, satria mbola zaza ianao, fa izy efa mpiady hatrizay niainany.

And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock:

Fa hoy Davida tamin'i Saoly: Ny mpanomponao niandry ny ondrin-drainy, ary nisy liona sy bera tonga tao ka nahalasa zanak'ondry teo amin'ny ondry,

And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.

dia nanenjika azy aho ka namely azy, ary azoko teny am-bavany ilay zanak'ondry; ary nony handramatra ahy izy, dia nohazoniko tamin'ny somony, ary nasiako ka matiko.

Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.

Ny liona sy ny bera samy novonoin'ny mpanomponao; ary io Filistina tsy mifora io dia ho tahaka ny anankiray amin'ireny, satria nihaika ny miaramilan'Andriamanitra velona izy.

David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.

Ary hoy koa Davida; Jehovah, Izay namonjy ahy tamin'ny tanan'ny liona sy ny bera, Izy no hamonjy ahy amin'ny tanan'io Filistina io. Dia hoy Saoly tamin'i Davida; Mandehana, ary homba anao anie Jehovah.

And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail.

Ary Saoly nampiakanjo an'i Davida ny akanjo fiadiany ary nanisy fiarovan-doha varahina tamin'ny lohany sy nampiakanjo azy akanjo fiarovan-tratra.

And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.

Ary Davida namehy ny sabany tamin'ny akanjo fiadiany, dia nanandrana handeha; fa tsy mbola nahazatra azy izany, ka hoy izy tamin'i Saoly: Tsy afa-mandeha amin'ireto aho, fa tsy mbola nahazatra ahy; ary dia nesorin'i Davida izany.

And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.

Dia nitondra ny tehiny teny an-tànany izy sady nifidy vato kilonjy dimy tao amin'ny lohasahan-driaka, ka nataony tao anatin'ny kitapo fitondran'ny mpiandry ondry, izay teny aminy, ary ny antsamotadiny koa teny an-tànany; dia nanatona ilay Filistina izy.

And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shield went before him.

Ary ilay Filistina nandroso nanatona an'i Davida, sady teo alohany ilay lehilahy mitondra ny ampinga lehibe.

And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.

Ary nony nijerijery an'i Davida ilay Filistina ka nahita azy, dia nianjonanjona taminy, fa tanora izy sady mena volo no tsara tarehy.

And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

Ary hoy ilay Filistina tamin'i Davida: Alika angaha aho, no hatonin'ialahy amin'ny tehina? Ary nanozona an'i Davida tamin'ireo andriamaniny ilay Filistina

And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field.

sady nanao tamin'i Davida hoe: Avia etỳ amiko, dia homeko ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia ny nofon'ialahy.

Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

Fa hoy kosa Davida tamin'ilay Filistina: Hianao manatona ahy amin'ny sabatra sy ny lefona ary ny lefom-pohy; fa izaho kosa manatona anao amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny miaramilan'ny Isiraely, Izay efa nohaikainao.

This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

Anio no hanoloran'i Jehovah anao amin'ny tanako, ary hamely anao aho ka hanapaka ny lohanao, dia homeko ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia ny fatin'ny miaramilan'ny Filistina anio, mba ho fantatry ny tany rehetra fa manana Andriamanitra tokoa ny Isiraely.

And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands.

Ary ho fantatr'izao fiangonana rehetra izao fa tsy sabatra sy lefona no amonjen'i Jehovah; fa an'i Jehovah ny ady, ary hanolotra anareo ho eo an-tananay Izy.

And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

Ary nony niainga ilay Filistina ka nanatona hitsena an'i Davida, dia nandroso faingana Davida ka nihazakazaka ho eo amin'ny laharan'ny miaramila hitsena ilay Filistina.

And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.

Ary natsofok'i Davida tao an-kitapo ny tananay, ka naka vato tao izy, ka dia nalefany tamin'ny antsamotady, ka nahavoa ilay Filistina tamin'ny handriny, ary nilentika tamin'ny handriny ny vato, dia potraka niankohoka tamin'ny tany izy.

So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

Toy izany no nandresen'i Davida ilay Filistina tamin'ny vaton'antsamotady, fa namely ilay Filistina izy ka nahafaty azy, ary tsy nisy sabatra teny an-tànan'i Davida.

Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.

Dia nihazakazaka Davida ka nitsangana teo anilan'ilay Filistina, dia nalainy ny sabatr'ilehio ka notsoahany tamin'ny tranony, dia namonoany azy, sy nanapahany ny lohany. Ary nony hitan'ny Filistina fa maty ilay lehilahy maheriny, dia vaky nandositra izy.

And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou come to the valley, and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even unto Gath, and unto Ekron.

Ary ny lehilahy amin'ny Isiraely sy ny Joda dia nitsangana ka nanakora sy nanenjika ny Filistina hatrany akaikin'i Gay sy ny vavahadin'i Ekrona; ary izay voa tamin'ny Filistina dia niampatrampatra teny amin'ny lalana mankany Saraima ary hatrany Gata ka hatrany Ekrona.

And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they spoiled their tents.

Ary ny Zanak'Isiraely niverina avy nanenjika mafy ny Filistina ka namabo ny tobiny koa.

And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.

Ary ny lohan'ilay Filistina dia noraisin'i Davida ka nentiny tany Jerosalema; fa ny fiadiany napetrany tao amin'ny lainy.

And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I cannot tell.

Ary nony nahita an'i Davida nandeha hiady tamin'ny Filistina Saoly, dia hoy izy tamin'i Abnera, komandin'ny miaramila: Ry Abnera, zanak'iza moa iny zaza iny? Ary hoy Abnera: Raha velona koa ny ainao, ry mpanjaka, tsy fantatro velively.

And the king said, Enquire thou whose son the stripling is.

Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Anontanionao na zanak'iza na zanak'iza iny zaza iny.

And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

Ary nony niverina avy namono ilay Filistina Davida, dia nalain'i Abnera izy ka nentiny teo anatrehan'i Saoly, ary mbola teny an-tànany ihany ny lohan'ilay Filistina.

And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, thou young man? And David answered, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Beth–lehemite.

Dia hoy Saoly taminy: Zanak'iza moa ianao, ry zatovo? Ary hoy Davida: Zanak'i Jese Betlehemita mpanomponao aho.
