1 Sa: miuele da bogoi. Amola Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da ema asigiba: le idigimusa: gilisi. Ilia da moi hi lai (La: ima) amogai e uli dogone sali. Amolalu, Da: ibidi da wadela: i hafoga: i soge Ba: ila: ne amoga asi.
And Samuel died, and all Israel was gathered together, and they mourned for him, and buried him in his house in Ramatha. And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.
Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
3 Amogawi, Ga: ilebe fi dunu ea dio amo Na: iba: le da Ma: ione moilaiga esalebe ba: i. E da Gamele moilai gadenene dialebe soge gagui. E da bagade gagui dunu. E da sibi 3,000 agoane amola goudi 1,000 agoane gagui galu. Ea uda da isisima: goi ba: i amola bagade dawa: su ba: i. Be Na: iba: le da uasu amola hedolo mi hanasu dunu agoane ba: i. Na: iba: le da Gamele amoga ea sibi hinabo dadamunanebe ba: i,
Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.
4 amola Da: ibidi da wadela: i hafoga: i soge ganodini esalu, amo hou nabi.
And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,
5 Amaiba: le, e da ayeligi dunu nabuane amo Na: iba: lema hahawane sia: sia: ma: ne, Gamele moilaiga asunasi.
He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.
6 E da ili Na: iba: lema amane sia: ma: ne sia: i, “Sama! Da: ibidi da dima, dia sosogo amola dili huluane dilima ea asigi sia: sia: sisa.
And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.
7 E da nabi amo di da dia sibi ilia hinabo dadamusa: esala. Ea hanai da dia sibi ouligisu da nini esala amola ninia da ilima se hame iasu, di da amo dawa: mu e da hanai. Ilia da Gamele amogai esaloba, ilia liligi afae wamolai hame ba: i.
I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.
8 Di da dia hawa: hamosu dunu ilima adole ba: sea, ilia da amo defele dima olelemu. Ninia da lolo nabe esoga dima misi wea. Di da nini aowama: ne, Da: ibidi da dima edegesa. Nini amola dia na: iyado Da: ibidi fidima: ne, dia imunu amo ninima ima.”
Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.
9 Da: ibidi ea dunu da Da: ibidi ea sia: amo Na: iba: lema olelelalu, ouesalu.
And when David’s servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David’s name: and then held their peace.
10 Na: iba: le da aligili, amalu amane adole i, “Da: ibidi da nowala: ? Na da ea dio hamedafa nabi. We galu ninia soge da hobeale asi udigili hawa: hamosu dunu amoga nabai gala!
But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.
11 Na da na agi gobei, hano amola ohe na da na sibi hinabo dadamusu dunugili ima: ne fanelegei, amo lale, dunu amo da habodili misi na hame dawa: , amogili hamedafa imunu!”
Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?
12 Da: ibidi ea dunu da ema buhagili, Na: iba: le ea sia: i ema adodole i.
So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.
13 Da: ibidi da ea dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia! Gegesu gobihei salawane idinigima!” Amalalu, ilia da amane hamoi. Da: ibidi amola da ea gegesu gobihei idiniginisi. E amola ea dunu 400 agoane da Na: iba: le e doagala: musa: asi. Ea dunu eno 200 agoane da ilia liligi ouligima: ne, Ba: ila: ne sogega ouesalu.
Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.
14 Na: iba: le ea hawa: hamosu dunu afae da Na: iba: le idua A: biga: ilema amane sia: i, “Di da nabibala: ? Da: ibidi da hafoga: i sogega asigi sia: ninia hina ema sia: si. Be e da bu Da: ibidima ougili sisa: noi.
But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.
15 Be Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da ninima obenane hamoi. Ilia da ninima se hame iasu. Amola ninia da ili amola sogega gilisili esalea, ninia da liligi afae wamolai hamedafa ba: i.
These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.
16 Ninia da sibi wa: i ouligisa esalea, ilia da yoga amola gasia, ninima noga: le gaga: su.
They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
17 Amo hou noga: le dawa: lalu, dia hamomu ilegema. Ea hamobeba: le, ninia hina amola ea sosogo huluane da se bagade nabimu agoai galebe. E da gasa fi bagade hamobeba: le, e da dunu eno ilia sia: hamedafa naba.”
Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.
18 A: biga: ile da hedolowane agi ga: gi 200 amola bulamagau gadofoga hamoi daba waini hano nabai aduna, sibi houi biyale, gagoma egegei17 gilogala: me, waini fage gagabu fofogai 100 agoane amola figi ifa fage fofogai ga: gi 200 agoane amo lale, dougi da: iya lidili lelegesa lai.
Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:
19 Amalalu, e da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia bisili masa! Na da fa: no bobogemu.” Be e da egoa ema hamedafa sia: i.
And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.
20 E da dougi da: iya fila heda: le, agolo goulole aliagaloba, hedolowane Da: ibidi amola ea dunu migadenene manebe ba: i.
And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.
21 Da: ibidi amane dadawa: lu, “Na da abuliba: le amo dunu ea liligi hafoga: i sogega ouligilalula: ? E da liligi afae wamolai hamedafa ba: i. Be na da e fidibiba: le, e da nama wadela: i bidi dabe iaha.
And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.
22 Na da hame hadigia amo dunu huluane hame fane lelegesea, Hina Gode da na fane legemu da defea.”
May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.
23 A: biga: ile da Da: ibidi ba: beba: le, hedolowane dougi da: iya esalu alia gudui amalu hi gobele Da: ibidi ea emo bega: osoba gala: la sa: ili,
And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.
24 amola ema amane sia: i, “Dafawane hina! Na sia: nabima! Na da amo da: i diosu dabe lala!
And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.
25 Na: iba: le da noga: i hame dunu! Ea sia: mae nabima! Dafawane! E da ea dio dawa: loma: ne defele gagaoui dunu esala! Hina! Dia hawa: hamosu dunu da doaga: loba, na da amogawi hame galu.
Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.
26 Dia ha lai dunuma dabele fane legemu logo, Hina Gode E da hedofai. Amola wali na da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amane sia: sa, dia ha lai amola dunu huluane da dima se imunusa: dawa: lala, amo da Na: iba: le ea se iasu lamu defele, se iasu ba: mu.
Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.
27 Dafawane hina! Na dima udigili imunusa: gaguli misi goe lale, dia dunuma ima.
Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.
28 Dafawane hina! Na da wadela: i hou hamoi galea, amo gogolema: ne olofoma. Hina Gode da di amola digaga fi hina bagade hamomu. Bai di Ea gegesu hamonana. Amola di da esalea, wadela: i hou hamedafa hamomu.
Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.
29 Nowa da dima doagala: le, fane legemusa: dawa: sea, dia Hina Gode da dunu da gobolo gene ouligibi defele, di gaga: mu. Be dia ha lai dunu amo Hina Gode da dunu da ifa badaga ga: muga: dadiga gele fodole gala: be defele, galagamu.
For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.
30 Amola Hina Gode da dima amo noga: i hou huluane E ilegei amo hamone dagosea, amola di Isala: ili hina bagade hamoi dagosea,
And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,
31 amola di da dia hamobeba: le, dia asigi dawa: su ganodini se hame nabimu. Bai di da dabele dunu hame fai amola udigili hame fai. Amola Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele hou hamoi dagosea, dafawane na amola mae gogolema.”
This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.
32 Da: ibidi da A: biga: ilema amane sia: i, “Hina Godema nodoma! Isala: ili Gode da wali eso di nama asunasiba: le, Ema nodomu da defea.
And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:
33 Di da wali eso noga: le dawa: beba: le, noga: le hamoi. Na da wadela: i medole legesu hou amola dabe medole legesu hou dawa: i galu. Be di da amo logo hedofaiba: le, na Godema nodosa.
And blessed be thou, who hast kept me today, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.
34 Na dima se imunusa: dawa: i. Be Hina Gode da amo logo hedofai. Be na Esalebe Isala: ili Gode amo Ea Dioba: le amane dafawane sia: sa. Di da hedolowane nama doaga: musa: hame misi ganiaba, hahabe galu Na: iba: le ea dunu huluane da bogogia: i dagoi ba: la: loba.”
Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
35 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da A: biga: ile ea gaguli misi liligi amo lai. E ema amane sia: i, “Dina: diasuga buhagima. Amola mae dawa: ma! Na dia hanai defele hamomu.”
And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.
36 A: biga: ile da Na: iba: lema buhagi. E da lolo nabe amo hina bagade ea lolo nabe defele nanebe ba: i. E da feloai amola hahawane galu. Amaiba: le, A:biga: ile e da ea hamoi ema mae adole, golale hahabe fawane adoi.
And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal’s heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.
37 Amalalu, e da feloai gumibiba: le, A:biga: ile e da liligi huluane ema adodole i. Na: iba: le da bagade olole, da: i hulu gadoi dagoi ba: i.
But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
38 Eso nabuyane baligili, Hina Gode da Na: iba: le fane, e bogoi.
And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.
39 Da: ibidi da Na: iba: le bogoi nababeba: le, amane sia: i, “Hina Godema nodosa! Na: iba: le da nama sisa: nobeba: le, Hina Gode da ema dabe i. Amola, na Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu, na da wadela: le mae hamoma: ne E da gaga: i. Hina Gode da Na: iba: le hina: wadela: i houga se iasi.” Amalalu, Da: ibidi da A: biga: ile lama: ne sia: sia: si.
And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.
40 Da: ibidi ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da Gamele amoga asili, A:biga: ilema amane sia: i, “Da: ibidi da di lamu sia: beba: le, e da ninia di lala masa: ne asunasi.”
And David’s servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.
41 A: biga: ile da osoboa beguduli, amane sia: i, “Na da ea hawa: hamosu uda. Na da ea hawa: hamosu dunu ilia emo dodofemusa: momageiwane esala.”
And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
42 E da hedolo wa: legadole, ea dougi da: iya fila heda: i. E amola ea hawa: hamosu a: fini biyale gala, da Da: ibidi ea hawa: hamosu dunu ili bisili asili, amola Da: ibidi ema fi.
And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.
43 Da: ibidi da musa: Ahinoua: me (Yeseliele uda) amo lai galu, amola waha da A: biga: ile amowane ea uda hamoi.
Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.
44 Amabe galuwane, Solo da ea uda mano Ma: iga: le amo da Da: ibidi igili i galobawane, bu Ba: ladai (Ga: lime moilai dunu La: ise, amo egefe) amogili i galu.
But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David’s wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.
