1 Sa:miuele 27
1 Da: ibidi da hisu amane sia: i, “Eso afae enoga Solo da na fane legemu. Na hamomu noga: idafa da Filisidini dunu ilia sogega hobeale masunu. Amasea, Solo da Isala: ili soge ganodini na hogolalu yolesimu, amola na da gaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
And David said to himself, Some day death will come to me by the hand of Saul: the only thing for me to do is to get away into the land of the Philistines; then Saul will give up hope of taking me in any part of the land of Israel: and so I may be able to get away from him.
2 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi ea 600 dadi gagui dunu ilia da amo galuwane Ga: de moilaia hina bagade A: igise (Ma: ioge egefe) ema asi.
So David and the six hundred men who were with him went over to Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
3 Da: ibidi, ea dunu amola ilia sosogo fi huluane da Ga: de moilaiga ha: ini fi. Da: ibidi da ea uda aduna amo Ahinoua: me, (Yeselielega fi uda) amola Gamele amoga misi uda A: biga: ile, Na: iba: le ea didalo, amo ela oule asi.
And David and his men were living with Achish at Gath; every man had his family with him, and David had his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail of Carmel, who had been the wife of Nabal.
4 Solo da Da: ibidi Ga: de moilai bai bagadega hobea: i nababeba: le, e da Da: ibidi hogolalu yolesi.
And Saul, hearing that David had gone to Gath, went after him no longer.
5 Da: ibidi da A: igisema amane sia: i, “Di da na sama galea, na amo ganodini esalumusa: moilai fonobahadi nama ima. Na da ani moilai bai bagade amo ganodini esalumu da hamedei galebe.”
Then David said to Achish, If now I have grace in your eyes, let me have a place in one of the smaller towns of your land, to be my living-place; for it is not right for your servant to be living with you in the king's town.
6 Amaiba: le, A:igise da Sigala: ge moilai ema i. Amohaganini, Yuda hina bagade dunu ilia da gebewane Sigala: ge moilai bai bagade gagulala.
So Achish straight away gave him Ziklag: and for that reason Ziklag has been the property of the kings of Judah to this day.
7 Da: ibidi da Filisidini soge amo ganodini oubi 16 agoane esalu.
And David was living in the land of the Philistines for the space of a year and four months.
8 Amo esoga, Da: ibidi amola ea gegesu dunu ilia da Gisie, Gesi amola A: malege fi dunu (amo da amo soge ganodini gebewane esalu) ilima doagagala: lu. E da ilia sogega doagagala: lu asili, Sie soge baligili, Idibidi sogega doaga: su.
And David and his men went up and made attacks on the Geshurites and the Girzites and the Amalekites; for these were the people who were living in the land from Telam on the way to Shur, as far as Egypt.
9 E da dunu amola uda huluane fane lelegele dagole, amalu ilia sibi, bulamagau, dougi, ga: mele amola abula amolawane sasamogene gaguli asi. Amalu e da A: igisema buhagisu.
And David again and again made attacks on the land till not a man or a woman was still living; and he took away the sheep and the oxen and the asses and the camels and the clothing; and he came back to Achish.
10 Amalalu, A:igise da ema adole boba: lusu, “Di da waha habidili doagala: la asibala: ?” Amola Da: ibidi da ema e da Yuda ga (south) sogega o Yilamiele fi ilia sogega o Ginaide fi ilia esalebe sogega doagala: musa: asi, amo bu adole iasu.
And every time Achish said, Where have you been fighting today? David said, Against the South of Judah and the South of the Jerahmeelites and the South of the Kenites.
11 Da: ibidi ea hou da, e da dunu amola uda huluanedafa fane lelegelalusu. Amalalu, dunu asili, Ga: de fi ilima Da: ibidi ea houdafa hamoi olelemu da hamedafa galu. Da: ibidi da Ga: de sogega esaloba, amo hou gebewane hamonanusu.
Not one living man or woman did David ever take back with him to Gath, fearing that they might give an account of what had taken place, and say, This is what David did, and so has he been doing all the time while he has been living in the land of the Philistines.
12 Be A: igise da Da: ibidi ea hou da moloidafa dawa: beba: le, hisu amane sia: i, “Hina: dunu fi Isala: ili ilia da Da: ibidi bagadewane higabeba: le, e da eso huluane na hawa: hamosa gebewane esalumu.”
And Achish had belief in what David said, saying, He has made himself hated by all his people Israel, and so he will be my servant for ever.
