1 Samuel 30
1 On the third day David and his men arrived in Ziklag, and the Amalekites had raided the Negev, attacked Ziklag, and burned it down.
Ary nony tonga teo Ziklaga Davida sy ny olony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, dia, indro, ny Amalekita efa nanafika ny tany atsimo sy Ziklaga ka namely an’ i Ziklaga sy nandoro azy tamin’ ny afo;
2 They had taken captive the women and all who were there, both young and old. They had not killed anyone, but had carried them off as they went on their way.
ary efa namabo ny vehivavy sy izay rehetra tao izy, na lehibe na kely, nefa tsy nisy novonoiny na dia iray aza; fa nentiny ho babo ireo, ka lasa nandeha izy.
3 When David and his men came to the city, they found it burned down and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive.
Ary Davida sy ny olony tonga tao amin’ ny tanàna, ary, indro, efa levon’ ny afo ny tanàna; ary ny vadiny mbamin’ ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy efa lasan-ko babo.
4 So David and the troops with him lifted up their voices and wept until they had no strength left to weep.
Ary Davida sy ny mpanaraka azy dia nanandratra ny feony nitomany ambara-paha-tsy nahatomany intsony izy.
5 David’s two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Carmel, had been taken captive.
Ary voababo koa izy roa vavy vadin’ i Davida, dia Ahinoama Jezirelita sy Abigaila, ilay novinadin’ i Nabala Karmelita.
6 And David was greatly distressed because the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of every man grieved for his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the LORD his God.
Ary ory indrindra Davida, fa ny olona nifampitaona hitora-bato azy, satria samy nalahelo ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy ny olona rehetra; fa Davida kosa nampahery ny tenany tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny.
7 Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Bring me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought it to him,
Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Abiatara mpisorona, zanak’ i Ahimeleka: Masìna ianao, ento etỳ amiko ny efoda. Dia nentin’ i Abiatara teo amin’ i Davida ny efoda.
8 and David inquired of the LORD: “Should I pursue these raiders? Will I overtake them?” “Pursue them,” the LORD replied, “for you will surely overtake them and rescue the captives.”
Ary Davida nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah hoe: Henjehiko va izany jirika izany? Ho tratro va izy? Dia namaly azy Jehovah hoe: Enjeho izy, fa ho tratranao tokoa ary ho rarakao.
9 So David and his six hundred men went to the Brook of Besor, where some stayed behind
Dia lasa Davida sy ny enin-jato lahy izay nanaraka azy ka tonga teo amin’ ny renirano Besora, ary teo no nijanonan’ ny sasany.
10 because two hundred men were too exhausted to cross the brook. But David and four hundred men continued in pursuit.
Ary Davida sy ny efa-jato lahy no nanenjika; fa ny roan-jato lahy kosa, izay reraka ka tsy afaka nita ny renirano Besora, dia nijanona tany aoriana.
11 Now his men found an Egyptian in the field and brought him to David. They gave the man water to drink and food to eat—
Ary nahita lehilahy Egyptiana tany an-tsaha ny olona, ka nentiny tany amin’ i Davida; ary nomeny hanina ralehilahy, ka nihinana izy, ary nampisotroiny rano koa izy.
12 a piece of a fig cake and two clusters of raisins. So he ate and was revived, for he had not had any food or water for three days and three nights.
Ary nomeny ampempan’ aviavy iray didy sy voaloboka maina roa sampaho izy; ary rehefa nihinana izy, dia nody indray ny ainy; fa hateloan’ andro sy hateloan’ alina izy tsy nihinan-kanina na nisotro rano.
13 Then David asked him, “To whom do you belong, and where are you from?” “I am an Egyptian,” he replied, “the slave of an Amalekite. My master abandoned me three days ago when I fell ill.
Ary hoy Davida taminy: An’ iza moa ianao, ary avy taiza? Ary hoy izy: Zatovo Egyptiana, mpanompon’ ny Amalekita anankiray, aho; ary narian’ ny tompoko aho, fa narary afaka omaly.
14 We raided the Negev of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the Negev of Caleb, and we burned down Ziklag.”
Izahay efa nanafika ny tany atsimo izay an’ ny Keretita sy ny an’ i Joda ary ny tany atsimo izay an’ i Kaleba ary nandoro an’ i Ziklaga tamin’ ny afo.
15 “Will you lead me to these raiders?” David asked. And the man replied, “Swear to me by God that you will not kill me or deliver me into the hand of my master, and I will lead you to them.”
Ary hoy Davida taminy: Hitondra ahy midìna ho amin’ izany jirika izany va ianao? Ary hoy izy: Mianiàna amiko amin’ Andriamanitra fa tsy hamono ahy ianao na hanolotra ahy ho eo an-tànan’ ny tompoko, dia hitondra anao midìna ho amin’ izany jirika izany aho.
16 So he led David down, and there were the Amalekites spread out over all the land, eating, drinking, and celebrating the great amount of plunder they had taken from the land of the Philistines and the land of Judah.
Ary nony nentiny nidina izy, indreo, miely eran’ ny tany izy ka homana sy misotro ary milanona noho ny haben’ ny babo rehetra izay azony tamin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina sy ny tanin’ ny Joda.
17 And David struck them down from twilight until the evening of the next day. Not a man escaped, except four hundred young men who fled, riding off on camels.
Ary Davida namely azy tamin’ iny takariva iny ka hatramin’ ny ampitso hariva; ary tsy nisy olona afaka, afa-tsy zatovo efa-jato lahy izay nitaingina rameva ka nandositra.
18 So David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives.
Dia rarak’ i Davida izay rehetra efa nobaboin’ ny Amalekita; ary dia azon’ i Davida koa ny vadiny roa.
19 Nothing was missing, young or old, son or daughter, or any of the plunder the Amalekites had taken. David brought everything back.
Ary tsy nisy zavatra tsy azony, na kely na be, na zazalahy na zazavavy, na inona na inona tamin’ izay nobaboin’ ireny; izany rehetra izany dia azon’ i Davida avokoa.
20 And he recovered all the flocks and herds, which his men drove ahead of the other livestock, calling out, “This is David’s plunder!”
Ary Davida naka ny ondry aman’ osy sy ny omby rehetra; ary nentiny nialoha ny omby hafa ireo, sady nisy niantso hoe: Itony no babon’ i Davida.
21 When David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow him from the Brook of Besor, they came out to meet him and the troops with him. As David approached the men, he greeted them,
Ary Davida tonga teo amin’ ny roan-jato lahy, izay reraka ka tsy afaka nanaraka azy, fa najanony teo amin’ ny renirano Besora; ary dia nandeha ireo hitsena an’ i Davida sy ny olona nanaraka azy; ary nony tonga teo akaikin’ ny olona Davida, dia nanontany izay toeny.
22 but all the wicked and worthless men among those who had gone with David said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered, except for each man’s wife and children. They may take them and go.”
Dia niteny ny olona sompatra sy tena ratsy fanahy rehetra avy nanaraka an’ i Davida ka nanao hoe: Satria tsy mba niaraka tamintsika ireo, dia tsy hanomezantsika azy ny babo izay azontsika, afa-tsy ny vadiny aman-janany isany avy; fa ireo no aoka ho entiny, dia handeha izy.
23 But David said, “My brothers, you must not do this with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and delivered into our hands the raiders who came against us.
Fa hoy Davida: Aza manao izany amin’ izay nomen’ i Jehovah antsika, ry rahalahy; fa niaro antsika Izy, ary natolony teo an-tanantsika ny jirika izay tonga namely antsika.
24 Who will listen to your proposal? The share of the one who went to battle will match the share of the one who stayed with the supplies. They will share alike.”
Koa iza no hanaiky anareo amin’ izany? Fa tahaka ny anjaran’ izay nidina hiady ihany no ho anjaran’ izay nitoetra tamin’ ny entana: hiara-misalahy izy.
25 And so it has been from that day forward. David established this statute as an ordinance for Israel to this very day.
Dia izany no fanao hatramin’ izany andro izany, ka dia natao didy sy lalàna tamin’ ny Isiraely izany ambaraka androany.
26 When David arrived in Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, “Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the LORD’s enemies.”
Ary raha tonga tao Ziklaga Davida, dia mba nanaterany ho an’ ny loholon’ ny Joda sakaizany ny babo ka nataony hoe: Inty izay saotra ho anareo avy amin’ ny babo azo tamin’ ny fahavalon’ i Jehovah,
27 He sent gifts to those in Bethel, Ramoth Negev, and Jattir;
dia ho an’ izay ao Betela sy izay any Ramata amin’ ny tany atsimo sy ho an’ izay ao Jatira
28 to those in Aroer, Siphmoth, and Eshtemoa;
sy ho an’ izay ao Aroera sy ho an’ izay ao Sifmota sy ho an’ izay ao Estemoa
29 to those in Racal and in the cities of the Jerahmeelites and Kenites;
sy ho an’ izay ao Rakala sy ho an’ izay any an-tanànan’ ny Jeramelita sy ho an’ izay any an-tanànan’ ny Kenita
30 to those in Hormah, Bor-ashan, and Athach;
sy ho an’ izay ao Horma sy ho an’ izay ao Korasana sy ho an’ izay ao Ataka
31 and to those in Hebron and in all the places where David and his men had roamed.
sy ho an’ izay ao Hebrona ary ho an’ izay any amin’ ny tany rehetra nandehandehanan’ i Davida sy ny olony.
