1 Samuel 11
Maori Bible
11 Na ka haere mai a Nahaha Amoni ki te whakapae i Iapehe Kireara. A ka mea nga tangata katoa o Iapehe ki a Nahaha, Whakaritea mai he kawenata ki a matou, a ka mahi matou ki a koe.
2 Na ka mea a Nahaha Amoni ki a ratou, Ko te mea tenei e whakarite kawenata ai ahau ki a koutou, kia pokaia o koutou kanohi matau katoa; a ka waiho e ahau hei tawai mo Iharaira katoa.
3 Ano ra ko nga kaumatua o Iapehe ki a ia, Tukua mai koa ki a matou kia whitu nga ra, kia tono tangata ai matou puta noa i nga rohe o Iharaira; a, ki te kahore he kaiwhakaora mo matou, na ka puta atu matou ki a koe.
4 Katahi ka haere nga karere ki Kipea o Haora, a korerotia ana enei kupu ki nga taringa o te iwi: na nui atu te reo o te iwi katoa ki te tangi.
5 Na e haere mai ana tera a Haora i te mara, i muri i nga kau; na ka mea a Haora, Na te aha te iwi i tangi ai? Na ka korerotia ki a ia nga korero a nga tangata o Iapehe.
6 I te rongonga o Haora i enei korero, na ko te tino putanga o te wairua o te Atua ki runga ki a ia, a mura whakarere tona riri ki taua rongo.
7 Na ka mau ia ki etahi kau e rua, tapatapahia ana e ia; tukua ana ki nga rohe katoa o Iharaira, he mea kawe na nga karere, a ka mea, Ki te kahore tetahi e puta mai ki te aru i a Haora, ki te aru hoki i a Hamuera, ka peneitia ana kau. Na ka tau te wehi o Ihowa ki runga ki te iwi, a ka puta ratou ano he tangata kotahi.
8 Na ka taua ratou e ia ki Pehek; e toru rau mano nga tama a Iharaira, e toru tekau hoki mano nga tangata o Hura.
9 Na ka mea ratou ki nga karere i haere mai ra, Kia penei ta koutou ki atu ki nga tangata o Iapehe Kireara, Apopo, kia mahana te ra, ka puta he whakaoranga mo koutou. Na haere ana aua karere, a korerotia ana ki nga tangata o Iapehe; a koa ana ratou.
10 Na reira ka mea nga tangata o Iapehe, Apopo ka puta atu matou ki a koutou, a ma koutou e mea ki a matou nga mea e pai ana ki to koutou whakaaro.
11 Heoi i te aonga ake ka wehea e Haora te iwi kia toru nga ngohi. Na haere ana ratou ki waenganui o te puni i te whakaaraara o te ata, patua iho nga Amoni a mahana noa te ra; a, ko nga toenga, i marara noa atu, a kihai hoki i waiho kia tokorua o r atou e haere tahi ana.
12 Na ka mea te iwi ki a Hamuera, Ko wai tenei i mea nei, Hei kingi koia a Haora mo tatou? Homai aua tangata kia whakamatea e matou.
13 Ano ra ko Haora, E kore tetahi e whakamatea aianei; ko te ra hoki tenei i puta ai ta Ihowa whakaora mo Iharaira.
14 Katahi ka mea a Hamuera ki te iwi, Haere mai, tatou ka haere ki Kirikara, ki reira whakahou ai i te kingitanga.
15 Na haere ana te iwi katoa ki Kirikara, a whakakingitia ana a Haora ki reira ki te aroaro o Ihowa ki Kirikara. Na patua ana e ratou ki reira he patunga mo te pai ki te aroaro o Ihowa; a nui atu te koa o Haora, ratou ko nga tangata katoa o Iharair a i reira.
1 Samuel 11

1 Samuel 11
New International Version
Saul Rescues the City of Jabesh
11 Nahash[a](A) the Ammonite went up and besieged Jabesh Gilead.(B) And all the men of Jabesh said to him, “Make a treaty(C) with us, and we will be subject to you.”
2 But Nahash the Ammonite replied, “I will make a treaty with you only on the condition(D) that I gouge(E) out the right eye of every one of you and so bring disgrace(F) on all Israel.”
3 The elders(G) of Jabesh said to him, “Give us seven days so we can send messengers throughout Israel; if no one comes to rescue(H) us, we will surrender(I) to you.”
4 When the messengers came to Gibeah(J) of Saul and reported these terms to the people, they all wept(K) aloud. 5 Just then Saul was returning from the fields, behind his oxen, and he asked, “What is wrong with everyone? Why are they weeping?” Then they repeated to him what the men of Jabesh had said.
6 When Saul heard their words, the Spirit(L) of God came powerfully upon him, and he burned with anger. 7 He took a pair of oxen,(M) cut them into pieces, and sent the pieces by messengers throughout Israel,(N) proclaiming, “This is what will be done to the oxen of anyone(O) who does not follow Saul and Samuel.” Then the terror of the Lord fell on the people, and they came out together as one.(P) 8 When Saul mustered(Q) them at Bezek,(R) the men of Israel numbered three hundred thousand and those of Judah thirty thousand.
9 They told the messengers who had come, “Say to the men of Jabesh Gilead, ‘By the time the sun is hot tomorrow, you will be rescued.’” When the messengers went and reported this to the men of Jabesh, they were elated. 10 They said to the Ammonites, “Tomorrow we will surrender(S) to you, and you can do to us whatever you like.”
11 The next day Saul separated his men into three divisions;(T) during the last watch of the night they broke into the camp of the Ammonites(U) and slaughtered them until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
Saul Confirmed as King
12 The people then said to Samuel, “Who(V) was it that asked, ‘Shall Saul reign over us?’ Turn these men over to us so that we may put them to death.”
13 But Saul said, “No one will be put to death today,(W) for this day the Lord has rescued(X) Israel.”
14 Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, let us go to Gilgal(Y) and there renew the kingship.(Z)” 15 So all the people went to Gilgal(AA) and made Saul king(AB) in the presence of the Lord. There they sacrificed fellowship offerings before the Lord, and Saul and all the Israelites held a great celebration.
Footnotes
- 1 Samuel 11:1 Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scrolls gifts. Now Nahash king of the Ammonites oppressed the Gadites and Reubenites severely. He gouged out all their right eyes and struck terror and dread in Israel. Not a man remained among the Israelites beyond the Jordan whose right eye was not gouged out by Nahash king of the Ammonites, except that seven thousand men fled from the Ammonites and entered Jabesh Gilead. About a month later, 1 Nahash
