1 Sa:miuele 30
1 Eso aduna baligili, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da Sigela: ge moilai bai bagadega doaga: i. Be A: malege dunu da Yuda ga (south) soge amola Sigela: ge amoga doagala: le, diasu huluane laluga ulagisili nei dagoi, be uda huluane gaguli gagai dagoi ba: i. Ilia da uda amola mano hame fane legei, be yolesili, ilia da huluane oule asi dagoi.
On the third day David and his men arrived in Ziklag, and the Amalekites had raided the Negev, attacked Ziklag, and burned it down.
They had taken captive the women and all who were there, both young and old. They had not killed anyone, but had carried them off as they went on their way.
3 Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da doaga: loba, ilia da moilai amo laluga nei amola ilia uda, dunu mano amola uda mano huluane gaguli asi dagoi ba: i.
When David and his men came to the city, they found it burned down and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive.
4 Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da muni hedolo mae yolele dinanawane gasa hamedene goaia: igia: i ba: i.
So David and the troops with him lifted up their voices and wept until they had no strength left to weep.
5 Da: ibidi ea uda aduna (Ahinoume amola A: biga: ile), ela da ele gaguli asi dagoi ba: i.
David’s two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Carmel, had been taken captive.
6 Bidi hamosu bagadedafa da Da: ibidima doaga: i dagoi. Bai ea dunu da ilia mano fisili gagaiba: le, ilia da baligili da: i dioi galu. Amola ilia Da: ibidi amo igiga fane legemusa: magagi. Da: ibidi da bagadewane da: i dioi, be Hina Gode da ea dogo denesinisi.
And David was greatly distressed because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of every man grieved for his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the LORD his God.
7 Da: ibidi da gobele salasu dunu Abaia: da (Ahimelege egefe) ema amane sia: i, “‘Ifode’ amo nama gaguli misa!” Abaia: da da amo ema gaguli misi.
Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Bring me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought it to him,
8 Da: ibidi da Hina Godema amane adole ba: i, “Na da amo ha wa: i dunuma fa: no bobogela: dula: ? Amola na da ili baligiama: bela: ?” Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Ilima fa: no bobogema! Dia da ili baligiamu, amola ili huluane gagulaligili bu sasamogemu.”
and David inquired of the LORD: “Should I pursue these raiders? Will I overtake them?” “Pursue them,” the LORD replied, “for you will surely overtake them and rescue the captives.”
9 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu 600 agoane da muni asili, Biso Hano amoga doaga: le, ea dunu mogili da amogawi ouesalu.
So David and his six hundred men went to the Brook of Besor, where some stayed behind
10 Da: ibidi amola ea dunu 400 agoane da gebewane ahoanu. Be mogi 200 eno da helebeba: le, hano degemu hamedei ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da amogawi ouesalu.
because two hundred men were too exhausted to cross the brook. But David and four hundred men continued in pursuit.
11 Da: ibidi ea dunu da Idibidi goi sogega esalebe ba: i. Ilia da e amo Da: ibidima oule asi. Ilia da ema ha: i manu amola hano i.
Now his men found an Egyptian in the field and brought him to David. They gave the man water to drink and food to eat—
12 Ilia da figi ifa fage hafoga: i amola waini fage hafoga: i gagabu aduna igili i. Be e da eso udiana ha: i hame mai galuba: le, e da amo ha: i manu i, amo nanoba ea gasa da bu denesi dagoi ba: i.
a piece of a fig cake and two clusters of raisins. So he ate and was revived, for he had not had any food or water for three days and three nights.
13 Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i, “Dia hina da nowala: ? Amola di da habidili misibala: ?” E bu adole i, “Na da Idibidi dunu, amola na da A: malege dunu afae ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu. Na da oloiba: le, eso udiana baligili, na hina da na yolesiagai.
Then David asked him, “To whom do you belong, and where are you from?” “I am an Egyptian,” he replied, “the slave of an Amalekite. My master abandoned me three days ago when I fell ill.
14 Amo esoha, ninia da Gelediaide dunu ilia soge (Ga: ilebe fi ilia soge, Yuda ga [south] la: idiga gala) amoga ha wa: i ahoana, Sigela: ge moilai bai bagade amo laluga ulagi.”
We raided the Negev of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the Negev of Caleb, and we burned down Ziklag.”
15 Da: ibidi da ema adole ba: i, “Di da na oule amo ha wa: i dunu asi amo olela masa: bela: ?” Idibidi goi da bu adole i, “Di da Gode Ea Dioba: le na mae fane legele amola na hina ema bu hame imunu ilegele sia: sea, na da bisili dili oule olela masunu.”
“Will you lead me to these raiders?” David asked. And the man replied, “Swear to me by God that you will not kill me or deliver me into the hand of my master, and I will lead you to them.”
16 Amalalu, e da Da: ibidi bisili ilima oule asi. A: malege ha wa: i ahoasu dunu da sogebi bagade amo ganodini ha: i naha amola adini naha amola hahawane hamosa afagogoi ba: i. Bai ilia da liligi bagadedafa Filisidini soge amola Yuda soge amoga lai dagoiba: le.
So he led David down, and there were the Amalekites spread out over all the land, eating, drinking, and celebrating the great amount of plunder they had taken from the land of the Philistines and the land of Judah.
17 Aya hahabe, eso mabe galu, Da: ibidi da ili doagala: le, ilima gegenana, daeya doaga: i. A: malege goi 400 agoane da ga: mele da: iya fila heda: le, hobea: iba: le, gaga: i dagoi ba: i. Be eno huluane, Da: ibidi amola ea dunu ilia da fane lelegei.
And David struck them down from twilight until the evening of the next day. Not a man escaped, except four hundred young men who fled, riding off on camels.
18 Da: ibidi da uda, mano amola liligi huluane amo A: malege dunu ilia lai, amo hulu samogei. Ea uda aduna amola da hi samogei.
So David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives.
19 Liligi afae bu hame samogei da hamedafa ba: i. Da: ibidi da ea dunu ilia dunu mano, uda mano amola liligi A: malege dunu ilia lai, amo huluanedafa bu samogei.
Nothing was missing, young or old, son or daughter, or any of the plunder the Amalekites had taken. David brought everything back.
20 E da lai ohe wa: i amola huluane bu samogei. Ea dunu da amo ohe wa: i bisilisili sesesela asi. Ilia da amane sia: i, “Amo liligi huluane da Da: ibidi ea: !”
And he recovered all the flocks and herds, which his men drove ahead of the other livestock, calling out, “This is David’s plunder!”
21 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da dunu 200 amo da helebeba: le, mae gegena asili, Biso Hano bega: esafulu, ilima buhagi. Ilia da Da: ibidi amola ea dunu gousa: musa: misi, amola Da: ibidi da ilima asili, hahawane yosia: i.
When David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow him from the Brook of Besor, they came out to meet him and the troops with him. As David approached the men, he greeted them,
22 Be ea dunu mogili, hedolo mi hahanabe amola hamedei dunu, da Da: ibidima amane sia: i, “Amo dunu 200 da nini hame asiba: le, ninia da ilima liligi lai hame ima: mu. Ilia da ilia uda amola mano amo fawane lale masa: ne sia: ma.”
but all the wicked and worthless men among those who had gone with David said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered, except for each man’s wife and children. They may take them and go.”
23 Be Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Nolalali dilia: ! Hina Gode da amo liligi ninima ia dagoiba: le, dilia sia: i defele hamomu da hamedei. E da nini gaga: i, amola ninia ha wa: i ahoabe dunu amo hasalasima: ne hamoi dagoi.
But David said, “My brothers, you must not do this with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and delivered into our hands the raiders who came against us.
24 Nowa da dilia sia: nabima: bela: ? Dunu huluane da liligi defele lamu. Nowa da ninia liligi ouligili esalu galea, ilia da gegena ahoasu dunu ilia labe defele lamu.”
Who will listen to your proposal? The share of the one who went to battle will match the share of the one who stayed with the supplies. They will share alike.”
25 Da: ibidi da amo hou Isala: ili soge ganodini sema dialoma: ne sia: i. Amola amogainini amo sema da Isala: ili sogega diala.
And so it has been from that day forward. David established this statute as an ordinance for Israel to this very day.
26 Da: ibidi da Sigela: ge amoga bu misini, e da ea lai liligi mogili amo ea sama Yuda ouligisu dunu ilima i. E da ilima amane sia: si, “Amo da dilima hahawane udigili iasu liligi. Ninia da amo Hina Gode Ea ha lai ilima lai.”
When David arrived in Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, “Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the LORD’s enemies.”
27 E da amo liligi Bedele dunu amola La: ima (Yuda ga [south] sogega diala) amo dunu, amola Ya: da, Aloua, Sifemode, Esiedemoua, Lagale, Homa, Bolasia: ne, A:ida: ge amola Hibalone amo moilai dunuma i. Amola e da Yilamiele fi dunu amola Ginaide fi dunu amolalima i. E da sogebi amoga e amola ea dunu ilia afufulalusu, ilima I.
He sent gifts to those in Bethel, Ramoth Negev, and Jattir;
to those in Aroer, Siphmoth, and Eshtemoa;
to those in Racal and in the cities of the Jerahmeelites and Kenites;
to those in Hormah, Bor-ashan, and Athach;
and to those in Hebron and in all the places where David and his men had roamed.
