1 Sa:miuele 24
1 Solo da Filisidini dunuma gegenanu buhagi. Ilia da Soloma Da: ibidi da wadela: i hafoga: i soge Enegedi gadenene esala: ba: ya ema olelei.
And it came to pass when Saul returned from pursuing after the Philistines, that it was reported to him, saying, David [is] in the wilderness of Engaddi.
2 Solo da Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu baligili noga: idafa 3,000 agoane oule asili, soge ea dio amo Sigua Goudi Gele amoga gusudili, Da: ibidi amola e dunu hogolalu.
And he took with him three thousand men, chosen out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men in front of Saddaeem.
3 E da logoga sibi gagoi gadenene magufu gelaba amoga misini, iga gimusa: asili, amo ganodini golili sa: i. Amo magufu gelaba ganodini, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da guma: dafa wamoaligi dialu.
And he came to the flocks of sheep that were by the way, and there was a cave there; and Saul went in to make preparation, and David and his men were sitting in the inner part of the cave.
4 Da: ibidi ea dunu da ema amane sia: i, “Dia logo da doasi diala. Hina Gode da dia ha lai dunu dia lobo da: iya ima: ne sia: i, amo wali di da dia hanaiga ema hamomu logo doasi dagoi.” Da: ibidi da gebe gogoli asili, Solo ea abula fe hedofalai. Solo da ema amane hamobe hi hame dawa: i.
And the men of David said to him, Behold, this [is] the day of which the Lord spoke to you, that he would deliver your enemy into your hands; and you shall do to him as [it is] good in your sight. So David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul's garment secretly.
5 Be amalu Da: ibidi ea asigi dawa: su ganodini se nabi.
And it came to pass after this that David's heart struck him, because he had cut off the skirt of his garment.
6 E da ea dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Na da dunu amo Hina Gode Ea hina bagade hamoma: ne ilegei, ema se imunu da defea hame. Hina Gode da na ema se imunu logo hedofamu da defea. Bai e da Hina Gode Ea ilegei dunuba: le.”
And David said to his men, The Lord forbid it me, that I should do this ting to my lord the anointed of the Lord, to lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.
7 Da: ibidi da amane sia: beba: le, ea dunu da Soloma doagalamusa: dawa: i bu yolesi. Solo da wa: legadole, magufu gelabo yolesili, logoga asi.
So David persuaded his men by [his] words, and did not suffer them to arise and kill Saul: and Saul arose and went his way.
8 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da ema fa: no bobogele, gadili asili, ema wele sia: i, “Hina bagade noga: idafa!” Solo da beba: i. Da: ibidi da Solo nodoma: ne osoboga begudili,
And David rose up [and went] after him out of the cave: and David cried after Saul, saying, [My] lord, [O] king! and Saul looked behind him, and David bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance to him.
9 amane sia: i, “Dia abuliba: le ogogosu dunu amo ilia na da dima se imunusa: logo hogosu, amo ilia sia: be nabasala: ?
And David said to Saul, Why do you listen to the words of the people, saying, Behold, David seeks your life?
10 Disu da ba: lala. Wahadafa magufu gelaba ganodini, Hina Gode da hamobeba: le, na da na hanaiga dima hamomu logo doasi dagoi ba: i. Be na da dima asigiba: le, dima se fonobahadi imunusa: hame dawa: i. Bai Hina Gode da di hina bagade hamomusa: ilegei.
Behold, your eyes have seen this day how that the Lord has delivered you this day into my hands in the cave; and I would not kill you, but spared you, and said, I will not lift up my hand against my lord, for he is the Lord's anointed.
11 Na ada! Ba: ma! Na da dia abula fonobahadi damui gagui diala. Na da di fane legemu galu, be na da goe fawane damuni lai. Amo hou ba: beba: le, na da dima hamedafa lelelemu amola dima se hamedafa imunu, di amo noga: le dawa: ma. Na da dima wadela: le hamedafa imunu, di amo noga: le dawa: ma. Na da dima wadela: le hamedafa hamoi. Be di da na fane legemusa: awelala.
And behold, the skirt of your mantle [is] in my hand, I cut off the skirt, and did not kill you: know then and see today, there is no evil in my hand, nor impiety, nor rebellion; and I have not sinned against you, yet you lay snares for my soul to take it.
12 Hina Gode da ania hou fofada: nanu, nowa da wadela: le hamoi E da sia: mu. Na da dima se hamedafa imunu. Amaiba: le, di da nama se bagade iabeba: le, Hina Gode da dima se dabe imunu da defea.
The Lord judge between me and you, and the Lord requite you on yourself: but my hand shall not be upon you.
13 Di da musa: sia: su amo dawa: , ‘Wadela: i dunu fawane da wadela: le hamosa.’ Amaiba: le, na da dima se hame imunu.
As the old proverb says, Transgression will proceed from the wicked ones: but my hand shall not be upon you.
14 Isala: ili hina bagade da hamedei liligi fane legemusa: dawa: lala. Na da hamedei, wa: me bogoi amola dede amo agoaiwane gala.
And now after whom do you come forth, O king of Israel? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog, and after a flea?
15 Hina Gode Hi fawane da fofada: nanu, nowa da moloi amola nowa da giadofai sia: mu. E da amo liligi hogolalu, di amo na mae fane legema: ne, na gaga: ma: mu.”
The Lord be judge and umpire between me and you, the Lord look upon and judge my cause, and rescue me out of your hand.
16 Da: ibidi da sia: i dagole, Solo da amane sia: i, “Nagofe! Da: ibidi! Amo da dafawane dila: ?” Amola e da muni dinanu.
And it came to pass when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, [Is] this your voice, Son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
17 Amalalu, e da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Di da moloi amola na da giadofai. Di da nama noga: le hamosu, be na da dima wadela: le hamoi.
And Saul said to David, You [are] more righteous that I, for you have recompensed me good, but I have recompensed you evil.
18 Wali eso, dia da nama asigi hou olelei dagoi. Bai Hina Gode da na amo dia loboga i dagoi, be di da na hame fane legei.
And you have told me today what good you have done me, how the Lord shut me up into your hands today, and you did not kill me.
19 Dunu da ea ha lai gagusia, e da amo dunu mae hobeale fane legesa. Be di da hame amai. Di da waha nama hamobeba: le, Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele hamomu da defea.
And if any one should find his enemy in distress, and should send him forth in a good way, then the Lord will reward him good, as you has done this day.
20 Wali na fada: ne dawa: Di da Isala: ili hina bagade hamomu amola hina bagadewane gebewane esalumu.
And now, behold, I know that you shall surely reign, and the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand.
21 Be na dunu da na dio amola na sosogo ilia dio amo gogolesa: besa: le, Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le di da nagaga fi mae fane legema: ne ilegele sia: ma.”
Now then swear to me by the Lord, that you will not destroy my seed after me, that you will not blot out my name from the house of my father.
22 Da: ibidi da amaiwane ilegele sia: i. Amalalu, Solo da hi diasuga buhagi. Amola Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da ilia wamoaligisua buhagi.
So David swore to Saul: and Saul departed to his place, and David and his men went up to the strong-hold of Messera.
