¹Haddaba reer Falastiin way qaateen sanduuqii Ilaah, oo waxay ka keeneen Ebenceser, oo geeyeen Ashdood.

²VaFirisitia vakatora areka yaMwari vakaiisa mumba maDhagoni, vakaigadzika kurutivi rwaDhagoni.

²Markaasay reer Falastiin sanduuqii Ilaah qaateen, oo intay geliyeen gurigii Daagoon ayay ag qotomiyeen Daagoon.

³Zvino veAshidhodhi vakati vachimuka mangwanani, onei Dhagoni wawira pasi nechiso pamberi peareka yaJehovha. Vakatora Dhagoni, vakamugadzikazve panzvimbo yake.

³Oo maalintii dambe markii kuwii reer Ashdood aroor hore kaceen waxay arkeen Daagoon oo wejiga ugu dhacay sanduuqii Rabbiga hortiisa. Markaasay Daagoon qaadeen oo meeshiisii qotomiyeen.

⁴Zvino vakati vachimuka mangwanani, onei Dhagoni wawira pasi nechiso pamberi peareka yaJehovha; nomusoro waDhagoni nezvanza zvamaoko ake ose maviri zvakanga zvavhunika, zviri pachikumbaridzo chomukova; Dhagoni wakange asarirwa nomuviri woga.

⁴Oo haddana markay subaxdii dambe aroor hore kaceen, waxay arkeen Daagoon oo wejiga ugu dhacay sanduuqii Rabbiga hortiisa; oo Daagoon madaxiisii iyo labadiisii gacmoodba way ka go'naayeen oo waxay ku dhaceen marinka, oo Daagoon waxaa u hadhay gumudkii oo keliya.

⁵Saka vapristi vaDhagoni, navose vanopinda mumba maDhagoni, havatsiki pachikumbaridzo chaDhagoni paAshidhodhi kusvikira nhasi.

⁵Taas aawadeed Daagoon wadaaddadiisii, ama dad kaleto oo Daagoon gurigiisa soo galaba, midna kuma joogsado marinkii guriga Daagoon oo Ashdood ku yiil ilaa maantadan la joogo.

⁶Laakiinse gacantii Rabbigu way ku cuslayd reer Ashdood, wuuna baabbi'iyey iyagii, oo wuxuu kasoobaxyo ku soo daayay Ashdood iyo xuduudkeeda oo dhanba.

⁷Zvino varume veAshidhodhi vakati vachiona kuti ndizvo zvavanoitirwa, vakati, Areka yaMwari waIsiraeri ngairege kugara pakati pedu; nekuti ruoko rwake runotitambudza isu namwari wedu Dhagoni.

⁷Oo dadkii reer Ashdood markay arkeen inay saas tahay ayay yidhaahdeen, Sanduuqa Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil waa inaanu ina dhex oollin; waayo, gacantiisii aad bay inoogu adag tahay, innaga iyo ilaaheenna Daagoonba.

⁸Sidaas daraaddeed waxay u cid dirteen oo soo urursadeen madaxdii reer Falastiin oo dhan, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, War maxaynu ku samaynaa sanduuqa Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil? Oo iyana waxay ugu jawaabeen, Sanduuqii Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ha lagu soo wareejiyo Gad. Oo iyana sanduuqii Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil halkaasay ku soo wareejiyeen.

⁹Vakati vaiisako, ruoko rwaJehovha rukavhundusa guta nokuvhundusa kukuru; akarova varume veguta, vaduku navakuru, vakapomerwa mamota.

⁹Oo sidaasay ahaatay markii ay qaadeen dabadeed inay gacantii Rabbigu gees ka ahayd magaaladii, oo wuxuu ku riday naxdin weyn; oo dadkii magaaladana wax buu ku dhuftay yar iyo weynba, oo kulligoodna kasoobaxyo ayaa ka soo wada baxay.

¹⁰Sidaas daraaddeed waxay sanduuqii Ilaah u direen xagga Ceqroon. Oo markii sanduuqii Ilaah Ceqroon yimid ayay reer Ceqroon wada qayliyeen, oo yidhaahdeen, Sanduuqa Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil waxay inoogu keeneen inay ina laayaan innaga iyo dadkeennaba.

¹¹Sidaas daraaddeed way u cid dirteen oo soo wada urursadeen madaxdii reer Falastiin oo dhan, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Sanduuqa Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil inaga fogeeya, oo iska daaya, meeshiisii haddana ha tagee, oo innaga iyo dadkeennaba yuu ina layne; waayo, magaalada waxaa kulligeed ku dhex jiray naxdinta dhimashada, oo halkaasna gacanta Ilaah waa ku cuslayd.Oo dadkii aan dhimanna waxaa lagu dhuftay kasoobaxyo, oo magaalada qayladeediina waxay u baxday xagga samada.
