1 Samuel 26
1 Then the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding on the hill of Hachilah, opposite Jeshimon?”
Nígbà náà ni àwọn ará Sifi tọ Saulu wá sí Gibeah, wọn wí pé, “Dafidi kò ha fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ níbi òkè Hakila, èyí tí ó wà níwájú Jeṣimoni?”
2 So Saul, accompanied by three thousand chosen men of Israel, went down to the Wilderness of Ziph to search for David there.
Saulu sì dìde ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ijù Sifi ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àṣàyàn ènìyàn ni Israẹli sì pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ láti wá Dafidi ni ijù Sifi.
3 Saul camped beside the road at the hill of Hachilah opposite Jeshimon, but David was living in the wilderness. When he realized that Saul had followed him there,
Saulu sì pàgọ́ rẹ̀ ní ibi òkè Hakila tí o wà níwájú Jeṣimoni lójú ọ̀nà, Dafidi sì jókòó ni ibi ijù náà, ó sì rí pé Saulu ń tẹ̀lé òun ni ijù náà.
4 David sent out spies to verify that Saul had arrived.
Dafidi sì rán ayọ́lẹ̀wò jáde, ó sì mọ nítòótọ́ pé Saulu ń bọ̀.
5 Then David set out and went to the place where Saul had camped. He saw the place where Saul and Abner son of Ner, the general of his army, had lain down. Saul was lying inside the inner circle of the camp, with the troops camped around him.
Dafidi sì dìde, ó sì wá sí ibi ti Saulu pàgọ́ sí: Dafidi rí ibi tí Saulu gbé dùbúlẹ̀ sí, àti Abneri ọmọ Neri, olórí ogun rẹ̀: Saulu sì dùbúlẹ̀ láàrín àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì pàgọ́ wọn yí i ká.
6 And David asked Ahimelech the Hittite and Abishai son of Zeruiah, Joab’s brother, “Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?” “I will go with you,” answered Abishai.
Dafidi sì dáhùn, ó sì wí fún Ahimeleki, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Hiti, àti fún Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah ẹ̀gbọ́n Joabu, pé, “Ta ni yóò ba mi sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sọ́dọ̀ Saulu ni ibùdó?” Abiṣai sì wí pé, “Èmi yóò ba ọ sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ.”
7 That night David and Abishai came to the troops, and Saul was lying there asleep in the inner circle of the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the troops were lying around him.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi àti Abiṣai sì tọ àwọn ènìyàn náà wá lóru: sì wò ó, Saulu dùbúlẹ̀ ó sì ń sùn láàrín kẹ̀kẹ́, a sì fi ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ gúnlẹ̀ ni ibi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀: Abneri àti àwọn ènìyàn náà sì dùbúlẹ̀ yí i ká.
8 Abishai said to David, “Today God has delivered your enemy into your hand. Now, therefore, please let me thrust the spear through him into the ground with one stroke. I will not need to strike him twice!”
Abiṣai sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Ọlọ́run ti fi ọ̀tá rẹ lé ọ lọ́wọ́ lónìí: ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, sá à jẹ́ kí èmi o fi ọ̀kọ̀ gún un mọ́lẹ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan, èmi kì yóò gun un lẹ́ẹ̀méjì.”
9 But David said to Abishai, “Do not destroy him, for who can lift a hand against the LORD’s anointed and be guiltless?”
Dafidi sì wí fún Abiṣai pé, “Má ṣe pa á nítorí pé ta ni lè na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa kí ó sì wà láìjẹ̀bi?”
10 David added, “As surely as the LORD lives, the LORD Himself will strike him down; either his day will come and he will die, or he will go into battle and perish.
Dafidi sì wí pé, “Bí Olúwa tí ń bẹ Olúwa yóò pa á, tàbí ọjọ́ rẹ̀ yóò sì pé tí yóò kú, tàbí òun ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ibi ìjà yóò sì ṣègbé níbẹ̀.
11 But the LORD forbid that I should stretch out my hand against the LORD’s anointed. Instead, take the spear and water jug by his head, and let us go.”
Olúwa má jẹ́ kí èmi na ọwọ́ mi sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa. Ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, mú ọ̀kọ̀ náà tí ń bẹ níbi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀, àti ìgò omi kí a sì máa lọ.”
12 So David took the spear and water jug by Saul’s head, and they departed. No one saw them or knew about it, nor did anyone wake up; they all remained asleep, because a deep sleep from the LORD had fallen on them.
Dafidi sì mú ọ̀kọ̀ náà àti ìgò omi náà kúrò níbi tìmùtìmù Saulu: wọ́n sì bá tiwọn lọ, kò sì sí ẹnìkan tí ó rí i, tàbí tí ó mọ̀: kò sì sí ẹnìkan tí ó jí; gbogbo wọn sì sùn; nítorí pé oorun èjìká láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá ti ṣubú lù wọ́n.
13 Then David crossed to the other side and stood atop the mountain at a distance; there was a wide gulf between them.
Dafidi sì rékọjá sí ìhà kejì, ó sì dúró lórí òkè kan tí ó jìnnà réré; àlàfo kan sì wà láàrín méjì wọn.
14 And David shouted to the troops and to Abner son of Ner, “Will you not answer me, Abner?” “Who calls to the king?” Abner replied.
Dafidi sì kọ sí àwọn ènìyàn náà àti sí Abneri ọmọ Neri wí pé, “Ìwọ kò dáhùn, Abneri?” Nígbà náà ni Abneri sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ìwọ ta ni ń pe ọba?”
15 So David said to Abner, “You are a man, aren’t you? And who in Israel is your equal? Why then did you not protect your lord the king when one of the people came to destroy him?
Dafidi sì wí fún Abneri pé, “Alágbára ọkùnrin kọ́ ni ìwọ bí? Ta ni ó sì dàbí ìwọ ni Israẹli? Ǹjẹ́ èéṣe tí ìwọ kò tọ́jú ọba Olúwa rẹ? Nítorí ẹnìkan nínú àwọn ènìyàn náà ti wọlé wá láti pa ọba olúwa rẹ.
16 This thing you have done is not good. As surely as the LORD lives, all of you deserve to die, since you did not protect your lord, the LORD’s anointed. Now look around. Where are the king’s spear and water jug that were by his head?”
Nǹkan tí ìwọ ṣe yìí kò dára. Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ, o tọ́ kí ẹ̀yin ó kú, nítorí pé ẹ̀yin kò pa olúwa yín mọ́, ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa. Ǹjẹ́ sì wo ibi tí ọ̀kọ̀ ọba gbé wà, àti ìgò omi tí ó ti wà níbi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀.”
17 Then Saul recognized David’s voice and asked, “Is that your voice, David my son?” “It is my voice, my lord and king,” David said.
Saulu sì mọ ohùn Dafidi, ó sì wí pé, “Ohùn rẹ ni èyí bí Dafidi ọmọ mi?” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Ohùn mi ni, olúwa mi, ọba.”
18 And he continued, “Why is my lord pursuing his servant? What have I done? What evil is in my hand?
Òun sì wí pé, “Nítorí kín ni olúwa mi ṣe ń lépa ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀? Kín ni èmi ṣe? Tàbí ìwà búburú wo ni ó wà lọ́wọ́ mi.
19 Now please, may my lord the king hear the words of his servant: If the LORD has stirred you up against me, then may He accept an offering. But if men have done it, may they be cursed in the presence of the LORD! For today they have driven me away from sharing in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’
Ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, ọba, olúwa mi, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ. Bí ó bá ṣe Olúwa bá ti rú ọ sókè sí mi, jẹ́ kí òun o gba ẹbọ; ṣùgbọ́n bí o bá sì ṣe pé ọmọ ènìyàn ni, ìfibú ni kí wọn ó jásí níwájú Olúwa; nítorí tí wọn lé mi jáde lónìí kí èmi má ba à ní ìpín nínú ilẹ̀ ìní Olúwa, wí pé, ‘Lọ sin àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn.’
20 So do not let my blood fall to the ground far from the presence of the LORD. For the king of Israel has come out to look for a flea, like one who hunts a partridge in the mountains.”
Ǹjẹ́ má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹ̀jẹ̀ mi ó sàn sílẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa; nítorí ọba Israẹli jáde láti wá ẹ̀mí mi bi ẹni ń dọdẹ àparò lórí òkè ńlá.”
21 Then Saul replied, “I have sinned. Come back, David my son. I will never harm you again, because today you considered my life precious. I have played the fool and have committed a grave error!”
Saulu sì wí pé, “Èmi ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀: yípadà, Dafidi ọmọ mi: nítorí pé èmi kì yóò wa ibi rẹ mọ́, nítorí tí ẹ̀mí mi sì ti ṣe iyebíye lójú rẹ lónìí: wò ó, èmi ti ń hùwà òmùgọ̀, mo sì ti ṣìnà jọjọ.”
22 “Here is the king’s spear,” David answered. “Let one of the young men come over and get it.
Dafidi sì dáhùn, ó sì wí pé, “Wò ó, ọ̀kọ̀ ọba! Kí ó sì jẹ́ kí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin rékọjá wá gbà á.
23 May the LORD repay every man for his righteousness and faithfulness. For the LORD delivered you into my hand today, but I would not stretch out my hand against the LORD’s anointed.
Kí Olúwa o san án fún olúkúlùkù bí òdodo rẹ̀ àti bí òtítọ́ rẹ̀: nítorí pé Olúwa tí fi ọ lé mi lọ́wọ́ lónìí, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò fẹ́ nawọ́ mi sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa.
24 As surely as I valued your life today, so may the LORD value my life and rescue me from all trouble.”
Sì wò ó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀mí rẹ ti tóbi lónìí lójú mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ki ẹ̀mí mi ó tóbi lójú Olúwa, kí ó sì gbà mí lọ́wọ́ ibi gbogbo.”
25 Saul said to him, “May you be blessed, David my son. You will accomplish great things and will surely prevail.” So David went on his way, and Saul returned home.
Saulu sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Alábùkún fún ni ìwọ, Dafidi ọmọ mi: nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò sì ṣe nǹkan ńlá, nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò sì borí.” Dafidi sì bá ọ̀nà rẹ̀ lọ, Saulu sì yípadà sí ibùgbé rẹ̀.
