1 Samuel 29
1 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek; and the Israelites encamped by the spring which is in Jezreel.
Jo-Filistia nochoko jolwenjgi duto Afek, to jo-Israel to nojot but soko man Jezreel.
2 The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish.
Kane jotend Filistia wuotho dhi kaachiel gi jolwenjgi mane ochan e migepe mag miche gi alufe, Daudi gi joge kod Akish bende ne wuotho kaluwo bangʼ-gi.
3 Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years? I have found no fault in him since he fell away until today.”
To jotend lweny mag jo-Filistia nopenjo niya, “Jo-Hibraniagi to timo angʼo ka?” Akish nodwoko niya, “Ma, donge en Daudi, mane jatelo mar Saulo ma ruodh Israel? Osedak koda mokadho higa, to chakre chiengʼ mane oweyo Saulo nyaka chil kawuono, pok aneno rach moro kuome.”
4 But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, “Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For with what should this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Should it not be with the heads of these men?
To jotend lweny mag jo-Filistia nokecho kode ma giwacho niya, “Riemb ngʼatni odogi mondo odog kama ne imiye. Ok onego odhi kodwa e lweny, nikech e kinde ma lweny dhi nyime onyalo lokore kodwa. Donge mano e yo monyalo morogo ruodhe konego jowa moko?
5 Is not this David, of whom people sang to one another in dances, saying, ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands’?”
Ma donge e Daudi mane giwero e miendgi niya, “‘Saulo osenego ji alufu to Daudi osenego ji alufe kod alufe?’”
6 Then Achish called David and said to him, “As the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords do not favor you.
Omiyo Akish noluongo Daudi mowachone niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, ni isebedo ngʼat migeno kendo daher mondo ibed achiel kuom jolweny maga. Chakre chiengʼ mane ibiroe ira nyaka chil kawuono, pok aneno ketho moro kuomi, kata kamano jotend jo-Filistia ok oyie kodi.
7 Therefore now return, and go in peace, that you not displease the lords of the Philistines.”
Omiyo wuok kae kendo idog gi kwe, kik itim gima diwangʼ ii jotend jo-Filistia.”
8 David said to Achish, “But what have I done? What have you found in your servant so long as I have been before you to this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
Daudi nopenjo niya, “To angʼo masetimo? Rach mane miyudo kuom jatichni nyaka chakre chiengʼ mane abiroe nyaka chil kawuono? Angʼo mamona kedo gi wasik ruoth ma ruodha?”
9 Achish answered David, “I know that you are good in my sight, as an angel of God. Notwithstanding, the princes of the Philistines have said, ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’
Akish nodwoke niya, “Angʼeyo ni isebet ka iber e wangʼa mana ka malaika mar Nyasaye; to kata kamano jotend jolweny mag jo-Filistia osewacho ni, ‘Kik odhi kodwa e lweny.’
10 Therefore now rise up early in the morning with the servants of your lord who have come with you; and as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart.”
Koro chiew gokinyi in kaachiel gi jotich ruodhi mane obiro kodi mondo umond udhi ka piny yawore.”
11 So David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines; and the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
Omiyo Daudi kod joge nochiewo gokinyi mangʼich ma gidok e piny jo-Filistia, ka jo-Filistia to dhi Jezreel.
