< 1 Samuel 21 >
1 Unya miadto si David sa Nob aron sa pagpakigkita kang Ahimelek ang pari. Misugat nga nangurog si Ahimelek kang David ug miingon kaniya, “Nganong nag-inusara ka man ug walay kauban?”
Then David went into Nob, to the priest Ahimelech. And Ahimelech was astonished that David had arrived. And he said to him, “Why are you alone, and no one is with you?”
2 Miingon si David kang Ahimelek ang pari, “Gipaanhi ako sa hari sa usa ka tuyo ug misulti kanako, 'Ayaw pahibal-a si bisan kinsa sa bisan unsang butang mahitungod sa tuyo nga gituga ko kanimo.' Gikasabot ko ang batan-ong mga lalaki didto sa usa ka dapit.
And David said to the priest Ahimelech: “The king has instructed to me a word, and he said: ‘Let no one know the matter about which you have been sent by me, and what type of instructions I have given to you. For I have also summoned servants to one and another place.’
3 Karon unsa man ang anaa sa imong kamot? Hatagi ako ug lima ka buok tinapay, o bisan unsa nga ania dinhi.”
Now therefore, if you have anything at hand, even five loaves of bread, or whatever you may find, give it to me.”
4 Mitubag ang pari kang David ug miingon, “Walay naandan nga tinapay nga ania sa akong kamot, apan adunay balaang tinapay—kon ang mga batan-ong kalalakin-an wala makahilabot ug mga babaye.”
And the priest, responding to David, said to him: “I have no common bread at hand, but only holy bread. Are the young men clean, especially from women?”
5 Gitubag ni David ang pari, “Ang tinuod gipahilayo kanamo ang mga babaye sa milabay nga tulo na ka adlaw, sama sa naandan sa dihang molakaw ako. Ang mga butang nga iya sa kalalakin-an gipahilayo bisan gani sa yanong mga buluhaton. Labi na gayod karong adlawa naglikay sila!”
And David responded to the priest, and said to him: “Indeed, as concerns being with women, we have abstained since yesterday and the day before, when we departed, and so the vessels of the young men have been holy. And although, this journey has been defiled, it will also be sanctified today as concerns the vessels.”
6 Busa gihatagan siya sa pari ug tinapay nga linain. Kay wala nay laing tinapay ang anaa didto gawas sa tinapay diha sa atubangan, nga gikuha gikan sa atubangan ni Yahweh, aron nga kapulihan ug init nga tinapay sa adlaw nga kuhaon kini.
Therefore, the priest gave to him sanctified bread. For there was no bread there, but only the bread of the Presence, which had been taken away from before the face of the Lord, so that fresh loaves might be set up.
7 Karon ang usa sa mga sulugoon ni Saul atua didto nianang adlawa, nga nagpabilin sa atubangan ni Yahweh. Siya mao si Doeg nga taga-Edomea, ang pangulo sa tigbantay sa mga kahayopan ni Saul.
Now a certain man among the servants of Saul was there on that day, inside the tabernacle of the Lord. And his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the most powerful among the shepherds of Saul.
8 Miingon si David kang Ahimelek, “Aduna bay bangkaw o espada nga anaa kanimo? Kay wala ko madala ang akong espada ni ang akong mga hinagiban, tungod kay dinalian ang buluhaton sa hari.”
Then David said to Ahimelech: “Do you have, here at hand, a spear or a sword? For I did not take my own sword, or my own weapons with me. For the word of the king was urgent.”
9 Miingon ang pari, “Ania dinhi ang espada ni Goliat ang Filistihanon nga imong gipatay didto sa walog sa Ela, ania giputos ug panapton luyo sa ephod. Kon buot nimo kanang kuhaon, kuhaa, kay walay laing hinagiban dinhi.” Miingon si David, “Wala na gayoy laing espada nga sama niana; ihatag kini kanako.”
And the priest said: “Behold, here is the sword of Goliath, the Philistine, whom you struck down in the Valley of Terebinth. It is wrapped up in a cloak behind the ephod. If you wish to take this, take it. For there is nothing else here except this.” And David said, “There is nothing else like this, so give it to me.”
10 Mibarog si David ug milikay nianang adlawa gikan kang Saul ug miadto kang Akis, ang hari sa Gat.
And so, David rose up, and he fled on that day from the face of Saul. And he went to Achish, the king of Gath.
11 Ang mga sulugoon ni Akis miingon kaniya, “Dili ba mao man kini si David, ang hari niining dapita? Dili ba nanag-awit man inubanan sa panagsayaw ang tagsatagsa kanila mahitungod kaniya, 'Napatay ni Saul ang 1, 000, ug 10, 000 kang David?'”
And the servants of Achish, when they had seen David, said to him: “Is this not David, the king of the land? Were they not singing about him, while dancing, saying, ‘Saul has struck down a thousand, and David ten thousand?’”
12 Ug kining mga pulonga gikinasingkasing ni David ug nahadlok pag-ayo kang Akis, ang hari sa Gat.
Then David took these words to his heart, and he became exceedingly afraid before the face of Achish, the king of Gath.
13 Giusab niya ang iyang panlihok sa ilang atubangan ug nagpabuangbuang didto sa ilang mga kamot; gipatikan niya ang mga pultahan sa ganghaan ug gipatulo ang laway sa iyang bungot.
And he altered his mouth before them, and he slipped down between their hands. And he stumbled against the doors of the gate. And his spit flowed down his beard.
14 Unya miingon si Akis ngadto sa iyang mga sulugoon, “Tan-awa, nakita ninyo nga buang kanang tawhana. Nganong gidala man ninyo siya dinhi kanako?
And Achish said to his servants: “You saw that the man is insane. Why did you bring him to me?
15 Nakulangan ba ako ug mga tawong buang, nga nagdala man kamo ug tawo nga sama niining tawhana dinhi sa akong atubangan? Mosulod ba gayod kining tawhana sa akong pinuy-anan?”
Or do we have need of those who are mad, so that you would bring in this one, to behave madly in my presence? How did this man get into my house?”
