< 1 Samuel 18 >

1 Human siya makigsulti kang Saul, nagkasuod dayon si Jonatan ug si David, ug nahigugma si Jonatan kaniya sama sa iyang kaugalingong kalag.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that, the soul of Jonathan, was knit with, the soul of David, so that Jonathan loved him, as his own soul.
2 Sukad niadtong adlawa gikuha ni Saul si David aron moalagad kaniya; wala na niya siya tugoti nga mopauli pa sa balay sa iyang amahan.
And Saul took him, that day, —and suffered him not to return unto the house of his father.
3 Unya naghimo ug kasabotan sa panaghigalaay si Jonatan ug si David tungod kay nahigugma man si Jonatan kaniya sama sa iyang kaugalingong kalag.
And Jonathan and David solemnised a covenant, —because he loved him as his own soul.
4 Gihukas ni Jonatan ang iyang gisul-ob nga kapa ug gihatag kini kang David uban ang kasangkapan, lakip na ang iyang espada, ang pana, ug ang iyang bakos.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe which was upon him, and gave it to David, —and his equipments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
5 Miadto si David kung asa siya ipaadto ni Saul, ug nagmalampuson siya. Gihimo siya ni Saul nga pangulo sa kasundalohan sa gubat. Nakapahimuot kini sa mata sa katawhan ug sa panan-aw usab sa mga sulugoon ni Saul.
And David went forth—whithersoever Saul sent him, he behaved himself prudently, so Saul set him over the men of war, —and he became a favourite in the eyes of all the people, yea even in the eyes of the servants of Saul.
6 Sa pag-abot nila sa pinuy-anan gikan sa pagpakiggubat sa mga Filistihanon, ang mga babaye nangabot gikan sa tanang siyudad sa Israel, nanag-awit ug nanagsayaw, aron mosugat kang Haring Saul, inubanan sa mga gagmay nga tambor, uban sa kalipay, ug uban sa mga tulunggon.
But so it was, when they came in on the return of David from the smiting of the Philistine, that the women went forth out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet Saul the king, —with timbrels, with rejoicing, and with instruments of three strings.
7 Nanag-awit ang mga babaye samtang nagpatugtog sila; miawit sila “Si Saul nakapatay sa iyang linibo, Ug si David sa iyang tinagpulo ka libo.”
And the women that made merry responded to each other in song, and said, —Saul, hath smitten, his thousands, but, David, his, tens of thousands.
8 Nasuko pag-ayo si Saul, ug kining awita wala nakapahimuot kaniya. Miingon siya, “Gipahinungod nila kang David ang napulo ka libo, apan linibo lamang ang ilang gipahinungod kanako. Unsa pay lain nga iyang maangkon kondili ang gingharian?”
Then was Saul exceeding angry, and this saying was offensive in his eyes, and he said, —They have ascribed, to David, ten thousands, but, to me, have they ascribed thousands, —What, more, then, can he have but, the kingdom?
9 Ug gibantayan na ni Saul si David uban ang pagduda sukad niadtong adlawa.
And Saul was eyeing David from that day forward.
10 Pagkasunod adlaw mikunsad kang Saul ang daotang espiritu nga gipadala sa Dios. Ug daw nabuang siya sulod sa pinuy-anan. Busa nagpatugtog si David sa iyang alpa, sama sa iyang gibuhat matag adlaw. Ug si Saul naggunit sa iyang bangkaw.
And, when it came to pass, on the morrow, that a superhuman spirit of sadness came suddenly upon Saul, and he was moved to raving in the midst of the house, —and, David, began playing with his hand, as he had done day by day, that a spear being in Saul’s hand,
11 Gibangkaw ni Saul si David, kay naghunahuna siya, “Ipataop ko si David sa bungbong.” Apan nakalikay si David gikan sa atubangan ni Saul sa makaduha ka higayon.
Saul hurled the spear, and said to himself—I will smite David, even to the wall! But David moved round from before him, twice.
12 Nahadlok si Saul kang David, tungod kay si Yahweh nag-uban man kaniya, apan wala na kang Saul.
And Saul feared because of David, —for Yahweh was with him, whereas, from Saul, he had departed.
13 Busa gipapahawa siya ni Saul sa iyang atubangan ug gipili siyang pangulo sa usa ka libo. Niining paagiha migawas si David ug mibalik sa atubangan sa katawhan.
So Saul removed him from him, and appointed him to be for him the captain of a thousand, —and he went out and came in before the people.
14 Nagmalampuson si David sa tanan niyang gibuhat, kay si Yahweh nagauban man kaniya.
And it came to pass that David, in all his ways, acted prudently, —and, Yahweh, was with him.
15 Sa dihang nakita ni Saul nga nagmalampuson siya, nahadlok siya kaniya.
And, when Saul saw that, he, was acting very prudently, he was afraid of him.
16 Apan gihigugma si David sa tibuok Israel ug sa Juda, kay migula siya ug mibalik sa ilang atubangan.
But, all Israel and Judah, were in love with David, —for he was going out and coming in before them.
17 Unya miingon si Saul kang David, “Ania ang akong kamagulangang anak nga babaye nga si Merab. Ipaasawa ko siya kanimo. Magmaisugon ka lamang alang kanako ug pakig-away sa mga gubat ni Yahweh.” Kay naghunahuna si Saul, “Dili ko itugot nga makadapat ang akong kamot kaniya, kondili ang kamot sa mga Filistihanon maoy modapat kaniya.”
So then Saul said unto David—Lo! my elder daughter Merab, her, will I give thee to wife, only, approve thyself unto me as a son of valour and fight the battles of Yahweh. Saul, however, had said to himself—Let not, my own hand, be upon him, but let, the hand of the Philistines, be upon him.
18 Miingon si David kang Saul, “Kinsa ba ako, ug ang akong mga kabanay, o ang panimalay sa akong amahan sa Israel, nga mahimo man akong umagad sa hari?”
And David said unto Saul—Who am, I, or who are my kinsfolk, the family of my father, in Israel, —that I should become son-in-law, to the king?
19 Apan sa panahon na nga ihatag na unta si Merab, ang anak nga babaye ni Saul, aron maasawa ni David, gipaasawa hinuon siya kang Adriel nga taga-Mehola.
But it came to pass, within the time for giving Merab daughter of Saul to David, that, she, was given to Adriel the Meholathite, to wife.
20 Apan si Mical ang anak nga babaye ni Saul, nahigugma kang David. Gisultihan nila si Saul, ug nakapahimuot kini kaniya.
Then did Michal, Saul’s daughter, love David, —and it was told Saul, and the thing was right in his eyes.
21 Naghunahuna si Saul, “Ipaasawa ko siya kang David aron nga siya maoy makalingla kaniya ug ang kamot sa mga Filistihanon makapatay kaniya.” Busa miingon si Saul kang David sa ikaduhang higayon, “Mahimo ko na ikaw nga umagad.”
And Saul said to himself—I will give her unto him, that she may prove to him a snare, and that, the hand of the Philistines, may be upon him. So then Saul said unto David, A second time, mayest thou become my son-in-law to-day.
22 Gisugo ni Saul ang iyang mga sulugoon, Pakigsulti kang David sa tago, ug isulti 'Tan-awa, ang hari nagmalipayon diha kanimo, ug ang tanan niyang sulugoon naghigugma kanimo. Busa karon, pag-uyon na nga mahimo kang umagad sa hari.”'
And Saul commanded his servants—Speak ye unto David quietly saying, Lo! the king delighteth in thee, and, all his servants, love thee, —now, therefore, become thou son-in-law to the king.
23 Busa gisulti kini nga mga pulong sa sulugoon ni Saul kang David. Ug miingon si David, “Daw gipakasayon lamang ninyo kining butanga nga maumagad sa hari, sanglit usa lamang ako ka kabos, ug dili mahinungdanon?”
And the servants of Saul spake, in the ears of David, these words. And David said—Seemeth it a light thing, in your eyes, to become son-in-law to the king, seeing that, I, am a poor man and lightly esteemed?
24 Ang mga sulugoon ni Saul misugilon kaniya sa mga gipamulong ni David.
So the servants of Saul told him, saying, —According to these words, spake David,
25 Unya miingon si Saul, “Mao kini ang inyong isulti kang David, 'Ang Hari wala magtinguha sa bisan unsang bugay, gawas sa usa ka gatos nga mga yamis sa mga Filistihanon, aron sa pagpanimalos sa kaaway sa hari.”' Karon naghunahuna si Saul nga mahulog na gayod si David sa kamot sa mga Filistihanon.
Then said Saul—Thus, shall ye say unto David—The king hath no delight in purchase-price, but rather in a hundred foreskins of Philistines, by avenging himself on the enemies of the king. But, Saul, thought to let David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 Sa pagsulti sa iyang mga sulugoon niining mga pulonga kang David, nakapahimuot kang David nga maumagad sa hari.
So, when his servants told David these words, the thing was right in the eyes of David, to become son-in-law unto the king, —and the days had not expired.
27 Sa wala pa mahuman kadtong mga adlawa, milakaw si David kuyog ang iyang mga tawo ug gipatay ang duha ka gatos nga mga Filistihanon. Gidala ni David ang ilang yamis, ug ilang gihatag kini sa saktong gidaghanon ngadto sa hari, aron maumagad na siya sa hari. Busa gipaasawa ni Saul kaniya si Mical ang iyang anak nga babaye.
Wherefore David arose, and went—he and his men, and smote among the Philistines two hundred men, and David brought in their foreskins, and gave them in full tale unto the king, that he might become son-in-law unto the king, and Saul gave him Michal his daughter, to wife.
28 Sa nakita ug nasayran ni Saul nga nag-uban si Yahweh kang David. Si Mical, nga anak ni Saul, nahigugma gayod kaniya.
And Saul saw and knew that, Yahweh, was with David, and that, all Israel, loved him.
29 Misamot ang kahadlok ni Saul kang David. Ug si Saul nagpadayon nga kaaway ni David.
So then Saul went on to fear because of David, yet more, —and it came to pass that Saul was hostile to David, all the days.
30 Unya ang mga prinsipe sa mga Filistihanon migawas aron sa pagpakig-away, ug sunodsunod ang ilang paggawas, nagmalampuson gayod si David kay sa tanang sulugoon ni Saul, hinungdan nga giila pag-ayo ang iyang ngalan.
And, when the princes of the Philistines came forth, so it was, that, as often as they came forth, David was more circumspect than any of the servants of Saul, so that his name was, precious exceedingly.
