< 1 Samuel 18 >

1 David hoi Saul lokthuih hoi boih pacoengah, Jonathan loe David poekhaih baktiah poekhaih tawnh pongah, anih to angmah ih takpum baktiah palung.
Daudi alipokuwa amemaliza kuongea na Sauli, roho ya Yonathani ilishikana na roho ya Daudi, na Yonathani akampenda kama roho yake mwenyewe.
2 To na niah Saul mah David to lak, ampa im ah amlaemsak ai boeh.
Sauli akamweka kazini Daudi siku hiyo, hakumwacha arudi nyumbani kwa baba yake.
3 Jonathan mah David to angmah ih takpum baktiah palung pongah, anih hoi lokkamhaih to sak.
Kisha Yonathani na Daudi wakafanya makubaliano ya urafiki kwa sababu Yonathani alimenda kama roho yake mwenyewe.
4 Jonathan loe angmah ih kahni to angkhring moe, David to paek; a khukbuennawk, a sumsen, kalii hoi kaengkaehnawk doeh a paek.
Yonathani akavua kanzu aliyokuwa amevaa na kumpa Daudi, akampa na vazi lake la kivita, pamoja na upanga, upinde, na mshipi.
5 David loe Saul mah toksak hanah patoeh kruek a caeh moe, palunghahaih hoiah sak pongah, Saul mah araengh kasang misatuh kaminawk ukkung tok to paek. Anih loe kaminawk boih hoi Saul ih tamnanawk boih mah doeh tapom ih kami ah oh.
Daudi alikwenda popote ambapo Sauli alimtuma, naye alifanikiwa. Sauli akamteua Daudi awe mkuu wa wapiganaji. Jambo hili lilipendeza machoni pa watu na katika macho ya watumishi wa Sauli.
6 David mah Philistin kaminawk to hum moe, im ah amlaem naah, Israel vangpuinawk ih nongpatanawk loe tacawt o boih moe, atuenpawk congca hoi cingcengnawk to boh o, anghoehaih laa to sak o moe, hnawhaih hoiah Saul siangpahrang to dawt o.
Wakati wanarudi nyumbani kutoka kuwapiga Wafilisti, wanawake walitoka miji yote ya Israeli, wakiimba na kucheza, ili kukutana na mfalme Sauli, wakiwa na matowazi, wenye furaha, na wakiwa na ala za muziki.
7 Nongpatanawk loe Saul mah sangto hum moe, David mah sang hato hum, tiah maeto pacoeng maeto laa sak o.
Hao wanawake waliimba kwa kupokezana huku wakicheza; Wakiimba: “Sauli ameua maelfu yake, Na Daudi ameua makumi elfu yake.”
8 To naah David mah sang hato hum moe, kai loe sangto khue ang hum o sak, prae khue ai ah loe, kalah hmuen timaw ka hak han oh vop? tiah Saul mah poekhaih tawnh pongah, to tiah thuih ih lok pongah paroeai palungphui.
Sauli alikasirika sana, na wimbo huu haukumpendeza. Naye akasema, “Wamemsifia Daudi juu ya makumi elfu, lakini wamenisifia melfu tu mimi! Atapata kitu gani zaidi isipokuwa ufalme?
9 To pongah to na ni hoi kamtong Saul mah David to uthaih mik hoiah khet.
Kuanzia siku hiyo na kuendelea, Sauli alimuangalia Daudi kwa mashaka.
10 Khawnbangah loe Angraeng khae hoi kasae muithla to Saul nuiah krak; Saul mah a imthung aum ah lok taphong naah, David mah sak zong ih baktih toengah, Saul hanah katoeng to kruek pae, toe Saul loe a ban ah tayae to sinh.
Kesho yake yule roho ya ubaya kutoka kwa Mungu ikamwingia Sauli kwa nguvu. Naye akawa anafanya kama mwendawazimu nyumbani mwake. Hivyo Daudi akapiga kifaa chake, kama alivyofanya kila siku. Sauli alikuwa na mkuki wake mkononi.
11 Saul mah tapang hoi nawnto David to takhawh han, tiah poekhaih tawnh pongah, tayae to takhawh. Toe David mah tayae to vai hnetto ayae taak ving.
Sauli akatupa mkuki wake, kwani alifikiri, “Nitampigilia ukutani.” Lakini Daudi mara mbili aliepa uwepo wa Sauli.
12 Angraeng loe Saul khae hoi tacawt moe, David khaeah oh pongah, Saul mah David to zit.
Sauli alimwogopa Daudi, kwa sababu BWANA alikuwa pamoja naye, lakini hakuwa na Sauli tena.
13 To pongah Saul mah David to angmah khae hoiah tacawtsak moe, misatuh kami sangto ukkung angraeng ah suek; David loe anih taeng hoiah tacawt moe, misatuh kaminawk to zaehhoih.
Hivyo Sauli alimuondoa Daudi mbele yake na akamteua kuwa kamanda wa kikosi cha askari elfu moja. Kwa namna hii David alitoka na kuingia mbele ya watu.
14 Angraeng mah oh thuih pongah, David loe a caehhaih loklam kruekah palunghahaih hoiah toksak.
Daudi alikuwa akistawi kwa mambo yake yote, maana BWANA alikuwa pamoja naye.
15 A sak ih hmuen boih ah acoehaih hoiah sak, tiah Saul mah hnuk naah, anih to zit.
Sauli alipoona kwamba Daudi anastawi, alimwogopa.
16 Toe David loe misatuk naah kaminawk boih zaehhoih pongah, Israel hoi Judah kaminawk mah palung o.
Lakini Israeli yote na Yuda walimpenda Daudi, maana alitoka na kuingia mbele yao.
17 Saul mah David khaeah, Khenah, canu kacoeh Rerab hae ka tawnh; na zu ah kang paek han; kai han misahoih ah loe, Angraeng hanah misa to tuh ah, tiah a naa. Saul mah, David nuiah ban ka phok mak ai, Philistinnawk mah anih nuiah ban phok o nasoe, tiah poekhaih tawnh.
Kisha Sauli akamwambia Daudi, “Huyu hapa ni binti yangu mkubwa Merabu. Nitakupatia awe mke wako. Ila tu uwe jasiri kwa ajili yangu na upigane vita vya BWANA.” Maana Sauli alifikiri, “Usije mkono wangu ukawa juu yake, ila acha mkono wa Wafilisti uwe juu yake.”
18 Toe David mah Saul khaeah, Kai loe mi maw? Kai loe mi maw? Israel prae thungah kai hoi ka imthung takoh khosakhaih loe kawbangmaw oh moe, siangpahrang canu ih sava ah ka oh han? tiah a naa.
Daudi akamwambia Sauli, “Mimi ni nani, na maisha yangu yana nini, au hata maisha ya familia ya baba yangu katika Israeli, kiasi cha kuwa mkwe wa mfalme?” 1 Samweli 18-19-19
19 Toe David mah Saul ih canu Merab lakhaih atue phak naah loe, a canu to Meholah ih kami Adriel hanah paek ving.
Lakini wakati ambao Merabu, binti Sauli, ilipasa kuwa ameolewa na Daudi, aliozwa kwa Adrieli Mmeholathi.
20 Saul canu Mikal mah loe David to koeh; to kawng to Saul khaeah a thuih pae o naah, Saul loe poeknawm.
Lakini Mikali, binti Sauli, alimpenda Daudi. Na watu walimwambia Sauli, na jambo hilo likampendeza.
21 Saul mah, Ka canu Mikal to anih han ka paek han, to tiah ni Mikal hae anih han dongh patung pae baktiah om ueloe, Philistinnawk ban ah amaan thai tih, tiah poek. To pongah Saul mah David khaeah, Nang loe vaihniah ka canu ih sava ah na om tih boeh, tiah a naa.
Ndipo Sauli akafikiri, “Nitampatia huyu awe mke wake, ili uwe mtego kwake, na hivyo mkono wa Wafilisti pengine uwe juu yake.” Kwa hiyo Sauli akamwambia Daudi mara ya pili, “Wewe utakuwa mkwe wangu.”
22 To naah Saul mah a tamnanawk to kawk moe, David khaeah hae lok hae thui pae oh, Khenah, siangpahrang loe na nuiah poeknawm, anih ih tamnanawk boih mah doeh nang ang palung o; to pongah vaihniah a canu ih sava ah om lai ah, tiah a naa o.
Sauli akawaamuru watumishi wake, “Ongeeni na Daudi kwa njia ya siri, na mseme, 'Tazama, mfalme anakufurahia, na watumishi wake wote wanakupenda. Sasa basi, uwe mkwe wa mfalme.'”
23 To lok to Saul ih tamnanawk mah David khaeah thuih pae o let; toe David mah, Kai loe khingya koi om ai kamtang caa ah ka oh pongah, siangpahrang canu ih sava ah oh hae hmuen tetta ah maw na poek o? tiah a naa.
Hivyo watumishi wa Sauli wakayasema maneno haya kwa Daudi. Na Daudi akasema, “Kwenu ninyi mnaona ni jambo dogo kuwa mkwe wa mfalme, mimi ni maskini, na heshima yangu ni ndogo.”
24 Saul ih tamnanawk mah Saul khaeah, David mah hae tiah lokthuih, tiah a thuih pae o let,
Watumishi wa Sauli wakarudisha kwake taarifa ya maneno ambayo Daudi aliyasema.
25 to naah Saul mah, Siangpahrang mah na zu lakhaih atho paek han koeh ai, a misanawk nuiah lu lak hanah, Philistin kaminawk ih tangyat hin cumvaito ni a koeh, tiah David khaeah thui pae oh, tiah a naa. Saul poekhaih loe Philistin kaminawk ban ah David to dueksak han koeh.
Na Sauli akasema, “Hivi ndivyo mtakavyo mwambia Daudi, 'Mfalme haitaji mahari yoyote, isipokuwa govi mia moja za Wafilisti, ili ajilipize kisasi kwa adui wa mfalme.”' Basi Sauli alifikiri atamwangusha Daudi kwa mkono wa Wafilisti.
26 To lok to a tamnanawk mah David khaeah thuih pae o naah, David mah siangpahrang canu ih sava ah oh hanah koeh. Atue khaehhaih ni akoep ai naah,
Watumishi wake walipomwambia maneno haya, yakamvutia Daudi awe mkwe wa mfalme.
27 David loe angthawk moe, angmah ih kaminawk hoi nawnto caeh pacoengah, Philistin kaminawk cumvai hnetto hum. Nihcae ih tangyat hin to a lak moe, siangpahrang canu ih sava ah oh thai hanah siangpahrang khaeah a sinh pae. To naah Saul mah a canu Mikal to zu ah paek.
Kabla siku hizo hazijapita, Daudi aliondoka na watu wake na kuwaua Wafilisti mia mbili. Daudi akazileta govi zao, na kumkadhi mfalme kulingana na idadi yake, ili aweze kufanyika mkwe wa mfalme. Kwa hiyo Sauli akamwoza Mikali, binti yake, awe mkewe.
28 Angraeng mah David to oh haih, a canu Mikal mah David palung parai, tiah Saul mah panoek.
Basi Sauli aliona na kufahamu kwamba BWANA alikuwa pamoja na Daudi. Mikali, binti Sauli, akampenda Daudi.
29 To naah Saul mah David to zit aep aep; to tiah a hing thung Saul loe David ih misa ah oh.
Sauli akazidi kumwogopa Daudi. Sauli akawa adui wa Daudi daima.
30 To pacoengah Philistin kaminawk loe Israel kaminawk tuk hanah angzoh o let; to tiah misatuk han angzoh o pacoengah doeh, David loe kalah Saul ih misatuh kaminawk pongah palunghahaih hoiah misa to tuk pongah, anih loe ahmin amthang aep aep.
Ndipo wakuu wa Wafilisti wakajitokeza kwa ajili ya vita, na mara zote walipojitokeza Daudi alifanikiwa zaidi kuliko watumishi wote wa Sauli, hivyo jina lake likapata heshima kubwa.
