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.
Ie pok’e Tsiklage t’i Davide naho o mpiama’eo te herone le nizoe’e te tiname o nte Amalekeo i Atimoy naho i Tsiklage, toe rinotsa’ iareo ty Tsiklage vaho finorototo’e añ’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.
Fonga rinambe’ iereo o ampela nizoeñeo, ty tora’e pak’ami’ ty bey; tsy vinono’ iareo fa nendese’ iareo amy lia’ iareoy.
3 When David and his men came to the city, they found it burned down and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive.
Aa ie pok’ an-drova’e ao t’i Davide naho ondati’eo, hehe t’ie tineno’ ty afo, le fa hene nasese an-drohy o vali’eo naho o ana-dahi’eo vaho o anak’ ampela’eo.
4 So David and the troops with him lifted up their voices and wept until they had no strength left to weep.
Nampipoñake ty rovetse amy zao t’i Davide naho o mpiama’eo, ampara’ te nidrifi’ i harovetsey ty fiai’e.
5 David’s two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail the widow of Nabal of Carmel, had been taken captive.
Tinavañe am-pandrohizañe añe ty vali’ i Davide roe, i Akinoame nte Iezreele naho i Abigale nte Karmele, nivali’ i Nabaley.
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.
Niampoheke t’i Davide kanao ho nametsa-bato ama’e ondatio ty amy hafain’ arofo’ iareo amo ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ ampela’eo, fe nañosi-batañe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e t’i Davide.
7 Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, “Bring me the ephod.” So Abiathar brought it to him,
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abiatare mpisoroñe, Ehe, endeso atoy i kitambey. Le nendese’ i Abiatare mb’amy Davide mb’eo i kitambey.
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.”
Nañontane ty hoe am’ Iehovà t’i Davide: Ho horidañeko hao i mpirai-lia zay, hiambotrahako? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Horidaño fa tsi-mete tsy ho tra’o, vaho tsi-mahay tsy ho haha’o iaby.
9 So David and his six hundred men went to the Brook of Besor, where some stayed behind
Aa le nionjomb’eo t’i Davide rekets’ indaty enen-jato mpiama’e rey, naho nimb’an-torahañe Besore mb’eo vaho nitofa eo ty ila’e.
10 because two hundred men were too exhausted to cross the brook. But David and four hundred men continued in pursuit.
Fe nañoridam-b’eo t’i Davide reketse ty lahilahy efa-jato; le nidoñe eo ty roan-jato amy t’ie loho nidazidazìtse tsy nahafitsake i torahañe Besorey.
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—
Tendrek’ am’ iereo an-kivoke ey t’i nte-Mitsraime, le nasese amy Davide naho nanjotsoañe mofo hikama’e naho rano hinoma’e
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.
vaho nanjotsoa’ iareo garaton-tsakoa naho valoboke angaroza’e maike roe; aa ie nikama, nimpoly ama’e ty fiai’e, fa telo andro, telo haleñe re tsy nikama mofo ndra ninon-drano.
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.
Le hoe t’i Davide ama’e: An’ia irehe? vaho boak’ aia? Le hoe re: Ajalahy nte-Mitsraime iraho, mpitoro’ ty nte-Amaleke, le nado’ i talèkoy amy t’ie natindry telo andro.
14 We raided the Negev of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the Negev of Caleb, and we burned down Ziklag.”
Nitamea’ay i Atimo’ o nte-Kereteoy, naho amy fanaña’ Iehoday naho amy Atimo’ i Kalebe vaho finorototo’ay añ’ afo ty Tsiklage.
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.”
Le hoe t’i Davide ama’e: Mete hinday ahy mb’amy lia-raike zay v’iheo? Le hoe re: Mifantà amako aman’ Añahare te tsy hañohofa’o loza, ndra hanolotse ahy am-pitàn-talèko, le ampanjotsoeko mb’ amy mpirai-liay mb’eo.
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.
Aa ie nampizotsoe’e mb’eo heheke t’ie niparaitake mb’ eo mb’eo an-tane ey, nifànjotse naho nitohoke an-tsabadidake, ty amy fikopaham-bey nitavane’ iereo an-tane’ o nte-Pilistioy, naho an-tane Iehoday.
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.
Linafa’ i Davide amy palipalitsieñey pak’ami’ty hariva’ i loak’ àndroy iereo; tsy teo ty nipoliotse am’ iereo naho tsy ty ajalahy efa-jato nijoñe an-drameva vaho nivoratsak’ añe.
18 So David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives.
Rinomba’ i Davide o nipaoha’ o nte-Amalekeo iabio; vaho hinaha’ i Davide i vali’e roe rey.
19 Nothing was missing, young or old, son or daughter, or any of the plunder the Amalekites had taken. David brought everything back.
Tsy eo ty nipok’ ama’e, ndra ty kede ndra ty bey, ndra ana-dahy ndra anak’ ampela; ndra vara ndra inoñ’ inoñe nitavaneñe am’ iereo; niazo’ i Davide iaby.
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!”
Hene nendese’ i Davide o mpirai-lia naho mpiharo-trokeo, le niroahe’ iareo aolo o añombe ila’eo, le hoe ty saontsy: Fikopaha’ i Davide.
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,
Nivotrak’ amy lahilahy roan-jato nimamake tsy nahafañorike i Davide rey t’i Davide, i nampitofàñe an-toraha’ i Besore rey; nionjomb’ amy Davide mb’eo iereo hifanalaka ama’e, naho hifañaoñe am’ ondaty nindre ama’eo; le ie nifanotok’ am’ondatio t’i Davide le nañontanea’e.
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.”
Le hoe ty enta’ ondaty tsivokatse naho rati-tserek’ amo mpiamy Davideo: Kanao tsy nindre aman-tika, tsy handiva’ay ndra kede amo vara kinopake rinomba’aio, naho tsy ty vali’ ondaty naho o keleia’eo, hiaoloa’ iereo mb’eo.
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.
Le hoe t’i Davide, Ko manao zao ry longoko, amo nanolora’ Iehovà antikañeo, ie nañaro antikañe, vaho nanolotse i lia-raike naname antikañey am-pitàn-tika.
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.”
Ia ty hañaoñe anahareo amo raha zao? Fa ho mira ami’ty anjara’ i nizotso mb’añ’aly mb’eoy ty anjara’ i nitambatse amy kilankañeiy; hifanjara mira iereo.
25 And so it has been from that day forward. David established this statute as an ordinance for Israel to this very day.
Izay ty ie mifototse amy andro zay le nanoe’e fañè naho fepètse e Israele ao ampara’ te henane.
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.”
Aa ie pok’e Tsiklage ao t’i Davide, nampañitrife’e amo roandria’ Iehodao naho amo rañe’eo ty ila’ i varay ami’ty hoe: Ravoravo ho anahareo ami’ty nikopaheñe amo rafelahi’ Iehovào;
27 He sent gifts to those in Bethel, Ramoth Negev, and Jattir;
naho amo am-Beteleo naho o an-dRamote Atimoo naho o am-Iatireo
28 to those in Aroer, Siphmoth, and Eshtemoa;
naho o an’Aroereo naho o an-tSipmoteo naho o an’Estemoao
29 to those in Racal and in the cities of the Jerahmeelites and Kenites;
naho o an-dRakaleo naho o an-drova’ o nte-Ieakmeeleo naho o androva’ o nte-Kaineoo
30 to those in Hormah, Bor-ashan, and Athach;
naho o an-Kormao naho o an-Korasaneo naho o nte-Atakeo
31 and to those in Hebron and in all the places where David and his men had roamed.
naho o nte-Kebroneo vaho o an-kene toetse fomba’ i Davide naho ondati’eo.
