1 Samuel 29
1 Now the Philistines brought all their forces together at Aphek, while Israel camped by the spring in Jezreel.
Philistin misatuh kaminawk boih, Aphek ah amkhueng o; Israel kaminawk loe Jezreel taeng ih tui ohhaih ahmuen ah atai o.
2 As the Philistine leaders marched out their units of hundreds and thousands, David and his men marched behind them with Achish.
Philistin ukkungnawk loe misatuh kami cumvaito, sangto ah tapraek o moe, caeh o; toe David hoi anih ih kaminawk loe Akhish siangpahrang hoi nawnto hnukah bang o.
3 Then the commanders of the Philistines asked, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish replied, “Is this not David, the servant of King Saul of Israel? He has been with me all these days, even years, and from the day he defected until today I have found no fault in him.”
Philistin misatuh angraengnawk mah, Hae ih Hebrunawk loe kawbangmaw oh o? tiah lokdueng o. Akhish mah, Philistin angraengnawk khaeah, David loe Israel siangpahrang Saul ih tamna ah oh, anih loe kai khaeah saningto pacoeng, vaihni ni khoek to oh boeh; kai khaeah ang cawnh pacoeng hoi vaihni ni khoek to a zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai vop, tiah a naa.
4 But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with Achish and told him, “Send that man back and let him return to the place you assigned him. He must not go down with us into battle only to become our adversary during the war. What better way for him to regain the favor of his master than with the heads of our men?
Toe Philistin misatuh angraengnawk loe anih nuiah palungphui o moe, To kami loe amlaem let nasoe; na paek ih a ohhaih ahmuen ah amlaem let nasoe; misatuk naah kaicae hoi nawnto caeh hmah nasoe; to tih ai nahaeloe misatuk naah kaicae hae na tuh lat tih; anih mah angmah ih angraeng palung tongsak hanah, aicae ih lu takroek lat mak ai maw?
5 Is this not the David about whom they sing in their dances: ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands’?”
Saul mah sangto hum moe, David mah sang hato hum, tiah kaminawk mah hnawhhaih hoiah laasak o thuih ih kami loe, hae David na ai maw? tiah a naa o.
6 So Achish summoned David and told him, “As surely as the LORD lives, you have been upright in my sight, and it seems right that you should march in and out with me in the army, because I have found no fault in you from the day you came to me until this day. But you have no favor in the sight of the leaders.
To pongah Akhish mah David to kawk moe, anih khaeah, Angraeng loe hing baktih toengah, nang loe katoeng ah kho na sak; kai hoi nawnto misatuk nathung na toksakhaih paroeai hoih; kai khaeah nang zoh tangsuek nathuem hoi kamtong vaihni ni khoek to na zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai; toe ukkungnawk mah nang to koeh o ai.
7 Therefore turn back now and go in peace, so that you will not do anything to displease the leaders of the Philistines.”
To pongah vaihi lunghoihta hoiah amlaem let ah; Philistin ukkungnawk koeh ai ih hmuen to sah hmah, tiah a naa.
8 “But what have I done?” David replied. “What have you found against your servant, from the day I came to you until today, to keep me from going along to fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
Toe David mah, Ka sak ih hmuen timaw oh boeh; nang khaeah kang zoh na ni hoi kamtong vaihni ni khoek to na tamna mah timaw sakpazaehaih oh? Ka caeh moe, ka angraeng siangpahrang ih misa ka tuk thai han ai ah tih hmuen maw oh? tiah a naa.
9 Achish replied, “I know that you are as pleasing in my sight as an angel of God. But the commanders of the Philistines have said, ‘He must not go into battle with us.’
Akhish mah David khaeah, Ka mikhnukah Sithaw ih van kami baktiah, ka hmaa ah na hoih, tiah ka panoek; toe Philistin misatuh angraengnawk mah, Anih loe misatuk naah kaicae hoi nawnto angzo hmah nasoe, tiah thuih o.
10 Now then, get up early in the morning, along with your master’s servants who came with you, and go as soon as it is light.”
To pongah khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk loe, Nang hoi nawnto angzo na angraeng ih tamnanawk hoiah khawnbang khodai naah tacawt oh, tiah a naa.
11 So David and his men got up early in the morning to return to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
To pongah David hoi anih ih kaminawk loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk o moe, Philistin prae ah amlaem o let. Philisitinnawk loe Jezreel vangpui ah caeh o.
