< 1 Samuel 22 >

1 So David left Gath and took refuge in the cave of Adullam. When his brothers and the rest of his father’s household heard about it, they went down to him there.
Dafidi sì kúrò níbẹ̀, ó sì sá sí ihò Adullamu; nígbà tí àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti ìdílé baba rẹ̀ sì gbọ́, wọ́n sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ tọ̀ ọ́ wá níbẹ̀.
2 And all who were distressed or indebted or discontented rallied around him, and he became their leader. About four hundred men were with him.
Olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó tí wà nínú ìpọ́njú, àti olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó ti jẹ gbèsè, àti olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó wà nínú ìbànújẹ́, sì kó ara wọn jọ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, òun sì jẹ́ olórí wọn; àwọn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ sì tó ìwọ̀n irinwó ọmọkùnrin.
3 From there David went to Mizpeh of Moab, where he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and mother stay with you until I learn what God will do for me.”
Dafidi sì ti ibẹ̀ náà lọ sí Mispa tí Moabu: ó sì wí fún ọba Moabu pé, “Jẹ́ kí baba àti ìyá mi, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́ wá bá ọ gbé, títí èmi yóò fi mọ ohun ti Ọlọ́run yóò ṣe fún mi.”
4 So he left them in the care of the king of Moab, and they stayed with him the whole time David was in the stronghold.
Ó sì mú wọn wá síwájú ọba Moabu; wọ́n sì bá á gbé ní gbogbo ọjọ́ tí Dafidi fi wà nínú ihò náà.
5 Then the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not stay in the stronghold. Depart and go into the land of Judah.” So David left and went to the forest of Hereth.
Gadi wòlíì sí wí fún Dafidi pé, “Ma ṣe gbé inú ihò náà, yẹra, kí o sí lọ sí ilẹ̀ Juda.” Nígbà náà ni Dafidi sì yẹra, ó sì lọ sínú igbó Hereti.
6 Soon Saul learned that David and his men had been discovered. At that time Saul was in Gibeah, sitting under the tamarisk tree on the hill at Gibeah, with his spear in hand and all his servants standing around him.
Saulu si gbọ́ pé a rí Dafidi àti àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀; Saulu sì ń bẹ ní Gibeah lábẹ́ igi tamariski ní Rama; ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ sì ń bẹ lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì dúró tì í.
7 Then Saul said to his servants, “Listen, men of Benjamin! Is the son of Jesse giving all of you fields and vineyards and making you commanders of thousands or hundreds?
Nígbà náà ni Saulu wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ tí ó dúró tì í, pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ẹ gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ará Benjamini, ọmọ Jese yóò ha fún olúkúlùkù yín ni oko ọgbà àjàrà bí? Kí ó sì sọ gbogbo yin dì olórí ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún àti olórí ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún bí?
8 Is that why all of you have conspired against me? Not one of you told me that my own son had made a covenant with the son of Jesse. Not one of you has shown concern for me or revealed to me that my son has stirred up my own servant to lie in wait against me, as is the case today.”
Tí gbogbo yín di ìmọ̀lù sí mi, tí kò sì sí ẹnìkan tí ó sọ létí mi pé, ọmọ mi ti bá ọmọ Jese mulẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kó sì sí ẹnìkan nínú yín tí ó ṣàánú mi, tí ó sì sọ ọ́ létí mi pé, ọmọ mi mú kí ìránṣẹ́ mi dìde sí mi láti ba dè mí, bí ó ti rí lónìí.”
9 But Doeg the Edomite, who had stationed himself with Saul’s servants, answered: “I saw the son of Jesse come to Ahimelech son of Ahitub at Nob.
Doegi ará Edomu tí a fi jẹ olórí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Saulu, sì dáhùn wí pé, “Èmi rí ọmọ Jese, ó wá sí Nobu, sọ́dọ̀ Ahimeleki ọmọ Ahitubu.
10 Ahimelech inquired of the LORD for him and gave him provisions. He also gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.”
Òun sì béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa fún un, ó sì fún un ní oúnjẹ, ó sí fún un ni idà Goliati ará Filistini.”
11 Then the king sent messengers to summon Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and his father’s whole family, who were priests at Nob. And all of them came to the king.
Ọba sì ránṣẹ́ pe Ahimeleki àlùfáà, ọmọ Ahitubu àti gbogbo ìdílé baba rẹ̀, àwọn àlùfáà tí ó wà ni Nobu: gbogbo wọn ni ó sì wá sọ́dọ̀ ọba.
12 “Listen now, son of Ahitub,” said Saul. “Here I am, my lord,” he replied.
Saulu sì wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ gbọ́, ìwọ ọmọ Ahitubu.” Òun sì wí pé, “Èmi nìyìí olúwa mi.”
13 And Saul asked him, “Why have you and the son of Jesse conspired against me? You gave him bread and a sword and inquired of God for him so that he could rise up against me to lie in wait, as he is doing today.”
Saulu sì wí fún un pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí ẹ̀yin fi ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi, ìwọ àti ọmọ Jese, tí ìwọ fi fún un ní àkàrà, àti idà, àti ti ìwọ fi béèrè fún un lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run kí òun lè dìde sí mi, láti ba dè mí, bí ó ti rí lónìí.”
14 Ahimelech answered the king, “Who among all your servants is as faithful as David, the king’s son-in-law, the captain of your bodyguard who is honored in your house?
Ahimeleki sì dá ọba lóhùn, ó sì wí pé, “Ta ni ó jẹ́ olóòtítọ́ nínú gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ bí Dafidi, ẹni tí ó jẹ́ àna ọba, ẹni tí ó ń gbọ́ tìrẹ, tí ó sì ni ọlá ní ilé rẹ.
15 Was that day the first time I inquired of God for him? Far be it from me! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of my father’s household, for your servant knew nothing of this whole affair—not in part or in whole.”
Òní lèmi ó ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ máa béèrè lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run fún un bí? Kí èyí jìnnà sí mi: kí ọba má ṣe ka nǹkan kan sí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ́rùn, tàbí sí gbogbo ìdílé baba mi: nítorí pé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ kò mọ̀kan nínú gbogbo nǹkan yìí, díẹ̀ tàbí púpọ̀.”
16 But the king replied, “You will surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father’s house!”
Ọba sì wí pé, “Ahimeleki, kíkú ni ìwọ yóò kú, ìwọ àti gbogbo ìdílé baba rẹ̀.”
17 Then the king ordered the guards at his side, “Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because they too sided with David. For they knew he was fleeing, but they did not tell me.” But the king’s servants would not lift a hand to strike the priests of the LORD.
Ọba sì wí fún àwọn aṣáájú ti máa ń sáré níwájú ọba, tí ó dúró tì í pé, “Yípadà kí ẹ sì pa àwọn àlùfáà Olúwa; nítorí pé ọwọ́ wọn wà pẹ̀lú Dafidi, àti nítorí pé wọ́n mọ ìgbà tí òun sá, wọn kò sì sọ ọ́ létí mi.” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ọba kò sì jẹ́ fi ọwọ́ wọn lé àwọn àlùfáà Olúwa láti pa wọ́n.
18 So the king ordered Doeg, “You turn and strike down the priests!” And Doeg the Edomite turned and struck down the priests himself. On that day he killed eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod.
Ọba sì wí fún Doegi pé, “Ìwọ yípadà, kí o sì pa àwọn àlùfáà!” Doegi ará Edomu sì yípadà, ó sì kọlu àwọn àlùfáà, ó sì pa wọ́n ní ọjọ́ náà, àrùnlélọ́gọ́rin ènìyàn ti ń wọ aṣọ ọ̀gbọ̀ efodu.
19 He also put to the sword Nob, the city of the priests, with its men and women, children and infants, oxen, donkeys, and sheep.
Ó sì fi ojú idà pa ara Nobu, ìlú àwọn àlùfáà náà àti ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, ọmọ wẹ́wẹ́, àti àwọn tí ó wà lẹ́nu ọmú, àti màlúù, àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àti àgùntàn.
20 But one of the sons of Ahimelech son of Ahitub escaped. His name was Abiathar, and he fled to David.
Ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Ahimeleki ọmọ Ahitubu tí a ń pè ní Abiatari sì bọ́; ó sì sá àsálà tọ Dafidi lọ.
21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the priests of the LORD.
Abiatari sì fihan Dafidi pé Saulu pa àwọn àlùfáà Olúwa tán.
22 Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew that Doeg the Edomite was there that day, and that he was sure to tell Saul. I myself am responsible for the lives of everyone in your father’s house.
Dafidi sì wí fún Abiatari pé, “Èmi ti mọ̀ ní ọjọ́ náà, nígbà tí Doegi ará Edomu ti wà níbẹ̀ pé, nítòótọ́ yóò sọ fún Saulu: nítorí mi ni a ṣe pa gbogbo ìdílé baba rẹ.
23 Stay with me; do not be afraid, for he who seeks your life is seeking mine as well. You will be safe with me.”
Ìwọ jókòó níhìn-ín lọ́dọ̀ mi, má ṣe bẹ̀rù, nítorí pé ẹni ti ń wá ẹ̀mí mi, ó ń wá ẹ̀mí rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n lọ́dọ̀ mi ni ìwọ ó wà ní àìléwu.”
