I Samuel 10

Ary Samoela nitondra tavoara feno diloilo ka nanidina ny diloilo teo an-dohan'i Saoly, dia nanoroka azy ka nanao hoe: Tsy nanosotra anao va Jehovah mba ho mpanapaka ny lovany?

Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD hath anointed thee to be captain over his inheritance?

Rehefa misaraka amiko ianao anio, dia hahita olona roa lahy eo anilan'ny fasan-dRahely, ao amin'ny fari-tanin'ny Benjamina, ao Zelza, ary izy ireo hilaza aminao hoe: Efa hita ny boriky izay notadiavinao; ary, indro, tsy ny boriky intsony no heverin'ny rainao, fa ianareo kosa indray no ahiny, ka hoy izy: Ahoana re no hataoko ny amin'ny zanako?

When thou art departed from me to day, then thou shalt find two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath left the care of the asses, and sorroweth for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

Dia handroso hiala ao ianao ka ho tonga ao amin'ny hazo terebinta any Tabara, dia hifanena amin'ny olona telo lahy miakatra ho any amin'Andriamanitra any Betela, ny anankiray mitondra zanak'osy telo, ny anankiray mitondra mofo telo, ary ny anankiray mitondra divay iray tavoara;

Then shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God to Beth–el, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:

ary hiarahaba anao ireo sy hanome anao mofo roa, dia horaisinao amin'ny tànany izany.

And they will salute thee, and give thee two loaves of bread; which thou shalt receive of their hands.

Rehefa afaka izany, dia ho tonga any Gibean'Andriamanitra ianao, izay misy miaramilan'ny Filistina; ary rehefa tonga ao an-tanàna ianao, dia hifanena amin'ny mpaminany maro irai-dia midina avy ao amin'ny fitoerana avo mitondra lokanga sy ampongatapaka sy sodina ary valiha eo alohany, dia haminany ireo.

After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a tabret, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy:

Ary hilatsaka aminao ny Fanahin'i Jehovah, ka hiara-maminany aminy ianao, dia ho voaova ho olom-baovao.

And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.

Ary rehefa tonga aminao ireo famantarana ireo, dia ataovy izay azon'ny tananao atao, fa Andriamanitra no momba anao.

And let it be, when these signs are come unto thee, that thou do as occasion serve thee; for God is with thee.

Ary ianao hidina eo alohako ho any Gilgala, ary indro aho hidina ho any aminao mba hanatitra fanatitra dorana sy fanati-pihavanana; ka hafitoana no hitoeranao mandra-pahatongako aminao, dia holazaiko aminao izay hataonao.

And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto thee, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come to thee, and shew thee what thou shalt do.

Ary raha vao nihodina niala tamin'i Samoela izy, dia nomen'Andriamanitra fo vaovao; ary tonga avokoa androtrizay ihany ireo famantarana rehetra ireo.

And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.

Ary rehefa tonga tany Gibea, izy indro, ny mpaminany maro irai-dia nifanena taminy; dia nilatsaka tamin'i Saoly ny Fanahin'Andriamanitra, ka naminany teo aminy izy.

And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.

Ary nony hitan'izay rehetra nahalala azy hatramin'ny taloha fa, indro, maminany eo amin'ny mpaminany izy, dia nifampilaza ny olona ka nanao hoe: Inona izao tonga amin'ny zanak'i Kisy izao? Saoly koa va mba isan'ny mpaminany?

And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?

Ary ny anankiray teo namaly hoe: Fa iza moa no rain'ireny? Ary izany no nisehoan'ny fitenenana hoe: Saoly koa va mba isan'ny mpaminany?

And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?

Ary rehefa nitsahatra naminany Saoly, dia nankeo amin'ny fitoerana avo.

And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.

Ary hoy ny rahalahin-drain'i Saoly taminy sy tamin'ny mpanompony: Taiza no alehanareo? Ary hoy izy: Nitady ny boriky izahay; ka nony tsy hitanay izy, dia nankany amin'i Samoela izahay.

And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant, Whither went ye? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.

Ary hoy ny rahalahin-drain'i Saoly: Masìna ianao, lazao amiko izay nolazain'i Samoela taminao.

And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.

Dia hoy Saoly tamin'ny rahalahin-drainy: Nolazainy marimarina taminay fa efa hita ny boriky. Fa ilay nolazain'i Samoela ny amin'ny fanjakana tsy mba nambarany taminy.

And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spake, he told him not.

Ary Samoela namory ny vahoaka ho any Mizpa ho any amin'i Jehovah

And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpeh;

ka nanao tamin'ny Zanak'Isiraely hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Izaho nitondra ny Isiraely niakatra avy tany Egypta ka namonjy anareo tamin'ny tanan'ny Egyptiana sy tamin'ny tanan'ny fanjakana rehetra izay nampahory anareo.

And said unto the children of Israel, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:

Nefa ianareo kosa efa nandà an'Andriamanitrareo androany, Izay mamonjy anareo amin'ny zavatra manjo anareo sy ny fahorianareo rehetra; fa hoy ianareo taminy: Tsia, fa manendre mpanjaka ho anay. Koa ankehitriny, mijanòna eo anatrehan'i Jehovah araka ny firenenareo sy ny arivonareo avy.

And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.

Dia nampanatona ny firenen'Isiraely rehetra Samoela, ka ny firenen'i Benjamina no voafidy.

And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.

Dia nampanatona ny firenen'i Benjamina araka ny fokony avy izy, ary ny fokon'ny Matrita no voafidy. Dia voafidy Saoly, zanak'i Kisy; ary raha nitady azy ny olona, dia tsy nahita azy.

When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.

Dia nanontany tamin'i Jehovah indray ny olona, na mba efa tonga ao ralehilahy, na tsia. Ary hoy Jehovah: Indro, miery ao amin'ny entana izy.

Therefore they enquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come thither. And the LORD answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the stuff.

Dia nihazakazaka ny olona ka naka azy tao; ary rehefa nitsangana teo afovoan'ny olona izy, dia nanan-tombo noho ny olona rehetra hatramin'ny sorony no ho miakatra ny halavany.

And they ran and fetched him thence: and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.

Ary hoy Samoela tamin'ny vahoaka rehetra: Hitanareo va izay nofidin'i Jehovah, fa tsy misy tahaka azy eo amin'ny vahoaka rehetra? Dia nihoby ny vahoaka rehetra ka nanao hoe: Ho ela velona anie ny mpanjaka.

And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom the LORD hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.

Ary Samoela nilaza tamin'ny olona izay mety ho fitondrana ny fanjakana, dia nosoratany tamin'ny taratasy izany ka napetrany teo anatrehan'i Jehovah. Ary ny vahoaka rehetra samy nampodin'i Samoela ho any an-tranony avy.

Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.

Fa Saoly kosa nandeha nody tany Gibea, ary nomba azy ny olona maro, izay voatendrin'ny tànan'Andriamanitra ny fony.

And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.

Fa nisy kosa olona tena ratsy fanahy nanao hoe: Hataon'io lehilahy io ahoana no famonjy antsika? Dia nanazimba an'i Saoly ireo ka tsy nitondra fanomezana ho azy. Nefa Saoly dia tahaka ny marenina.

But the children of Belial said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no presents. But he held his peace.
