1 Sa:miuele 20
1 Amalu, Da: ibidi da Na: iode sogebi La: ima soge ganodini esalu, amoga hobeale, Yonada: nema asi. “Na da adi hamobela: ?” e da adole ba: i, “Na da adi wadela: i hou hamobela: ? Na da adi wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, dia ada da na fane legemusa: hanabela: ?”
Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came and said to Jonathan, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? What is my sin before your father, that he seeks to take my life?”
2 Yonada: ne da bu adole i, “Dia da wadela: i hame hamoi! Di da hame bogomu. Na ada da ea hamobe huluane, bagade amola fonobahadi amo nama olelesa. E da dima hamomu nama hame wamolegemu.”
Jonathan said to David, “Far from it; you will not die. My father does nothing either great or small without telling it to me. Why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so.”
3 Be Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Dia ada da dia nama dogolegei noga: ledafa dawa: Amaiba: le, di da se nabasa: besa: le, e da na fane legemu ilegei dima hame adomusa: dawa: i. Na da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le dima sia: sa! Na da bogomu gadeneidafa galu.”
Yet David vowed again and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes. He has said, 'Do not let Jonathan know this, or he will be grieved.' But as truly as Yahweh lives, and as you live, there is but a step between me and death.”
4 Yonada: ne da amane sia: i, “Na da dia adi liligi hamoma: ne sia: sea, hamomu.”
Then Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you say, I will do for you.”
5 Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Aya da Oubi Gaheabolo Lolo Nasu gala. Na da hina bagade ani ha: i manu galu. Be dia defea galea, na da hawa: hamosu moilaia amoi wamo esaleawane, gasida daeya doaga: ma: ne ouesalumu.
David said to Jonathan, “Tomorrow is the new moon, and I ought to sit down to eat with the king. But let me go, so that I may hide myself in the field until the third day at evening.
6 Dia ada da na amo ea ha: i nasu fafai amoga hame esalebe ba: sea, ema amane sia: ma, ‘Da: ibidi da ea sosogo huluane ilia ode huluane gobele salasu Bedeleheme moilaiga masunu hanaiba: le, nama e masa: bela: le adole ba: i.’
If your father misses me at all, then say, 'David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city; because it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the clan.'
7 E da defea sia: sea, na da gaga: i dagoi ba: mu. Be e da ougisia, e da na wadela: ma: ne dawa: lala, amo dia dawa: ma.
If he says, 'It is well,' your servant will have peace. But if he is very angry, then know that he has decided on evil.
8 Di da amanewane na noga: le fidima. Amola sema ilegei dia nama hamoma: ne sia: i, amo dawa: loma. Be na da dafawane wadela: le hamoi ganiaba, diwane na fanelegema. Abulimusa: di adama na fanelegema: ne ema oule masa: bela: ?”
Therefore deal kindly with your servant. For you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you. But if there is sin in me, kill me yourself; for why then should you bring me to your father?”
9 Yonada: ne da bu adole i, “Amanewane maedafa dawa: ma! Na da na ada ea di fane legema: ne dawa: lala ganiaba, na da dima adola: loba.”
Jonathan said, “Far be it from you! If I learned my father decided harm to come upon you, would I not tell you?”
10 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da amane adole ba: i, “Dia ada da dima ougiliwane dabe sia: ne iasea, nowa da amo nama adoma: bela: ?”
Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me if by chance your father should answer you roughly?”
11 Yonada: ne bu adole i, “Ani soge genebogelaga ahoa: di.” Amalu, ela da asi.
Jonathan said to David, “Come, let us go out into the field.” So they both went out into the field.
12 Amalu Yonada: ne da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Isala: ili ilia Hina Gode da anima ba: su dunu esala! Aya amola gasida wewaba, na da adama adole ba: mu. E dima sia: be amo noga: i galea, na da dima sia: sia: simu.
Jonathan said to David, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be witness. When I have questioned my father around this time tomorrow, or the third day, see, if there is good will toward David, will I not then send to you and make it known to you?
13 Be e da dima se imunu agoai ba: sea, amo amolawane na da dima olelemu, amola di gaga: iwane asunasiagamu. Na agoane hame hamosea, Hina Gode da na fane legemu da defea. Amola Hina Gode na adama galu amane ali ganumu.
If it pleases my father to do you harm, may Yahweh do to Jonathan and more also if I do not make it known to you and send you away, so that you may go in peace. May Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father.
14 Amola na da mae bogole esalea, dafawane sema dia ilegei amo noga: le dawa: loma, amola na mae yolesima. Be na da bogosea,
If I am still alive, will you not show me the covenant faithfulness of Yahweh, that I may not die?
15 dia na sosogo mae yolesili gebewane dialoma: ma. Amola Hina Gode da dia ha lai huluane gugunufinisisia,
Do not cut off your covenant faithfulness from my house forever—not even when Yahweh cuts off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth.”
16 amo hamomusa: dabele ilegei da mae mugululi dialoma: ma. Be di amo ani ilegei fisia, Hina Gode da dima se dabe imunu.”
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David and said, “May Yahweh require an accounting from the hand of the enemies of David.”
17 Enowane, Yonada: ne da Da: ibidima sia: beba: le, Da: ibidi da ema dogolegeiwane esaloma: ne ilegei. Bai Yonada: ne da hina: da: ima asigibi defele Da: ibidima dogolegei.
Jonathan made David vow again because of the love that he had for him, because he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18 Amalalu, Yonada: ne da ema amane sia: i, “Aya da Oubi Gaheabolo Lolo Nasu doaga: muba: le, dia da amoga hame heda: i ba: sea, dunu ilia da dawa: digimu.
Then Jonathan said to him, “Tomorrow is the new moon. You will be missed because your seat will be empty.
19 Gasida amoga di da hamewane misi ba: sea, ilia da baligili dawa: digimu. Amaiba: le, di musa: wamoaligia amoga asili, gele gegedole legei amo baligia bu wamoaligima.
When you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself when the business was in hand, and stay by the stone Ezel.
20 Amalu na da igadunuma: gala: su defele, gele gegedole legei amoma dadiga udiana gala: mu.
I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target.
21 Amasea, na da na hawa: hamosu dunuma, e da amo dadi udiana hogola masa: ne adomu. Amola na da ema, ‘Ba: ma! Dadi da dima guidili diafula. Amo lidima!’ amane sia: sea di da gaga: iba: le, aliaguda: ma. Na da Esalebe Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le dafawane sia: sa. Di da se nabasu hamedafa ba: mu.
Then I will send my young man and say to him, 'Go find the arrows.' If I say to the young boy, 'Look, the arrows are on this side of you; get them,” then come; for there will be safety for you and not harm, as Yahweh lives.
22 Be na da ema, ‘Dadi da dima la: idi gadili galebe,’ amane sia: sea, di da masa. Bai Hina Gode da di ga masa: ne asunasiagasa.
“But if I say to the young man, 'Look, the arrows are beyond you,' then go your way, for Yahweh has sent you away.
23 Amola ania da sema ani dabele ilegei amo da Hina Gode Ea da dafawane ani gebewane gagulaligili dialoma: mu.”
As for the agreement of which you and I have spoken, see, Yahweh is between you and me forever.'”
24 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi da soge genebogelaga wamoaligi. Oubi Gaheabolo Lolo Nabe amoga, hina bagade Solo da ha: i nabe amoga misi.
So David hid himself in the field. When the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
25 E da dobea fei bega: hi musa: fisua amoi fi. A: bena da ela dafulili fi. Amola Yonada: ne da Soloma sisima: sodole fi. Be Da: ibidi ea fili sogebiga hame esalebe ba: i.
The king sat on his seat, as usual, on the seat by the wall. Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side. But David's place was empty.
26 Be amo esoha, Solo da Da: ibidi hame ba: beba: le, sia: hame sia: i. Bai e dawa: loba, “Liligi da ema doaga: i, amola e da wadela: i ledo hamobela: ?”
Yet Saul did not say anything that day, because he thought, “Something has happened to him. He is not clean; surely he is not clean.”
27 Be diahabe, Oubi Gaheabolo Lolo Nabe gesafo, Da: ibidi da gebewane ea fisuga hame esalebeba: le, Solo da Yonada: nema adole ba: i, “Abuliba: le Da: ibidi da aya amola wali lolo nabe wega hame misibala: ?”
But on the second day, the day after the new moon, David's place was empty. Saul said to Jonathan his son, “Why has the son of Jesse not come to the meal either yesterday or today?”
28 Yonada: ne da bu adole i, “E da Bedelehemega masusa: nama adole boba: i.
Jonathan answered Saul, “David earnestly asked permission from me to go to Bethlehem.
29 E amane sia: i, ‘Dafawane na masa: ma! Bai na sosogo da Bedelehemega gobele salasu lolo manu. Amola na ola da na amoga masa: ne sia: i. Amaiba: le, di da ani hamelegei galea, na sosogolali ba: la masa: ma!’ Amaiba: le, e da wali hi fisua amoi esalebe hame ba: sa,”
He said, 'Please let me go. For our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has ordered me to be there. Now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go and see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table.”
30 Solo da Yonada: nema ougiliwane amane sia: i, “Dia fa mano! Waha na dawa: sa, di da Da: ibidimagale, amola di da diame ali galu gogosiama: ne hamosa!
Then Saul's anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
31 Dia hame dawa: bela: ? Da: ibidi da mae bogole esalebe ba: sea, amogalu di da Isala: ili sogega hina bagade sogebi lamu da hamedei ba: mu. Waha di asili, e gaguli goeguda: oule misa. E da bogoma: mu!”
For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established. Now then, send and bring him to me, for he must surely die.”
32 Yonada: ne da bu adole, “E da abuliba: le bogoma: bela: ? E da adi hamobela: ?”
Jonathan answered Saul his father, “For what reason should he be put to death? What has he done?”
33 Amo galu, Yonada: ne bogoma: ne, Solo da goge agei Yonada: ne gala: i. Amabeba: le, Yonada: ne da eda ea Da: ibidi fane legemusa: dawa: i diala galebeya dawa: i.
Then Saul threw his spear at him to kill him. So Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death.
34 Yonada: ne da fafai bega: esalu, bagadewane ougili wa: legadoi. Amo esoha da eso ageyadu Oubi Gaheabolo Lolo Nabe ganodini, amola amogala Yonada: ne da ha: i hame mai. E da Da: ibidi ea se nabasu dawa: beba: le, baligili bagadewane da: i dioi galu. Bai Solo da Da: ibidima ougili sisa: noi.
Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved over David, because his father had dishonored him.
35 Amalu, hahabe Yonada: ne da yolaia Da: ibidima doaga: musa: asi, ele sia: i amo defele hamomusa: , e da goi afae oule asi.
In the morning, Jonathan went out into the field to the appointment with David, and a young man was with him.
36 E da amo goi ema amane sia: i, “Dadi na gala: be we hehenaia asili lala masa!” Amo goi da hehenaloba, Yonada: ne da dadi amoga goi amo baligima: ne galagusui.
He said to his young man, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” As the young man ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
37 Goi da asili, dadi bugilasa: ia amogai doaga: loba, Yonada: ne da ema wele sia: i, “Dadi da afae gusuwane!
When the young man came to the place where the arrow that Jonathan shot had landed, Jonathan called after the young man, and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”
38 Hedolo! Gogai udigili mae leloma!” Goi da dadi gaguia gadole, e ouligisu dunuma gaguli misi.
Then Jonathan called after the young man, “Hurry, be quick, do not stay!” So Jonathan's young man gathered up the arrows and came to his master.
39 E da amo ea fedege hame dawa: i. Yonada: ne amola Da: ibidi elesu fawane amo fedege dawa: i galu.
But the young man did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40 Yonada: ne da ea gegesu liligi gigisa: le, goi ema iasisili, moilai fiaga gaguli masa: ne sia: i.
Jonathan gave his weapons to his young man and said to him, “Go, take them to the city.”
41 Goi amo asili fa: no, Da: ibidi da gele gegedole legei baligia gadili amodili misini, muguni bugili, amola mi osoba gudu udiana agoane dia gugudui. Ele galu Da: ibidi amola Yonada: ne da ele gobele nonogosa dinanu. Amola Da: ibidi ea da: i diosu da Yonada: ne ea da: i diosu baligi.
As soon as the young man was gone, David stood up from behind the mound, lay facedown on the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another and wept together, with David weeping the more.
42 Amalu, Yonada: ne da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Gode da ali ganumu. Hina Gode da di amola na amola digaga fi amola nagaga fi ani dabele, ani hamomusia: ne sema ilegei noga: le ouligima: ne hamoma: mu.” Amalalu, Da: ibidi da asi. Amola Yonada: ne da moilaiga buhagi.
Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the name of Yahweh and said, 'May Yahweh be between you and me, and between my descendants and your descendants, forever.'” Then David stood up and left, and Jonathan returned to the city.
