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.
David said in his heart, “I will now perish one day by Saul's hand; there is nothing better for me than to escape into the land of the Philistines; Saul will give up looking for me any more within all the borders of Israel; in this way I will escape out of his hand.”
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.
David arose and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish son of Maok, the 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.
David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, each man with his own household, and David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelite woman, and Abigail the Carmelite woman, Nabal's wife.
4 Solo da Da: ibidi Ga: de moilai bai bagadega hobea: i nababeba: le, e da Da: ibidi hogolalu yolesi.
Saul was told that David had fled to Gath, so he looked for 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.”
David said to Achish, “If I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may live there. Why should your servant live in the royal city with you?”
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 that day Achish gave him Ziklag; that is why Ziklag belongs to the kings of Judah to this very day.
7 Da: ibidi da Filisidini soge amo ganodini oubi 16 agoane esalu.
The number of days that David lived in the land of the Philistines was a full 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.
David and his men attacked various places, making raids on the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites; for those nations were the inhabitants of the land, as you go to Shur, as far as the land of Egypt. They had been living there in the land from ancient times.
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.
David attacked the land and saved neither man nor woman alive; he took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the clothing; he would return and come again 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.
Achish would say, “Against whom have you made a raid today?” David would answer, “Against the south of Judah,” or “Against the south of the Jerahmeelites,” or “Against 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.
David would keep neither man nor woman alive to bring them to Gath, saying, “So that they cannot say about us, 'David did such and such.'” This was what he did all the while he was living in the country 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.”
Achish believed David, saying, “He has made his people Israel utterly abhor him; he will therefore be my servant forever.”
