< Kings I 19 >

1 And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, to kill David.
Saulo nowachone Jonathan ma wuode to gi jotije duto mondo gineg Daudi. To Jonathan nohero Daudi ahinya,
2 And Jonathan, Saul's son, loved David much: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul seeks to kill you: take heed to yourself therefore to-morrow morning, and hide yourself, and dwell in secret.
mi nosieme niya, “Tangʼ, Saulo wuora manyo yo ma donegigo. Omiyo kiny gokinyi dhiyo ipondi kendo bed mana kuno.
3 And I will go forth, and stand near my father in the field where you shall be, and I will speak concerning you to my father; and I will see what his answer may be, and I will tell you.
Abiro dhi oko kendo anachungʼ but wuora machiegni gi kama ipondoeno. Abiro wuoyo kode kuomi kendo abiro nyisi gima ayudo.”
4 And Jonathan spoke favourably concerning David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against your servant David, for he has not sinned against you, and his deeds [are] very good.
Jonathan nowuoyo maber kuom Daudi ne Saulo, wuon mare, mowachone niya, “Ruoth kik itim marach ne jatichni Daudi; pok otimoni marach, to osemana konyi ahinya.
5 And he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great deliverance; and all Israel saw, and rejoined: why then do you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?
Noyie tho chiengʼ mane onego ja-Filistia. Jehova Nyasaye nokelo loch maduongʼ ne jo-Israel duto, ne ineno mine imor. Angʼo madimi itim marach ni ngʼama onge ketho ka Daudi kinege maonge gima omiyo?”
6 And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, saying, [As] the Lord lives, he shall not die.
Saulo nochiko ite ne wach Jonathan mi okwongʼore kowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni Daudi ok nonegi.”
7 And Jonathan called David, and told him all these words; and Jonathan brought David in to Saul, and he was before him as in former times.
Omiyo Jonathan noluongo Daudi monyise weche duto mane giwacho. Nokele ir Saulo, mi Daudi nobedo gi Saulo kaka nosebet mokwongo.
8 And there was again war against Saul; and David did valiantly, and fought against the Philistines, and struck them with a very great slaughter, and they fled from before him.
Lweny nochako owuok kendo, mi Daudi nowuok modhi kedo gi jo-Filistia. Nonego ji mangʼeny ma joma odongʼ noringo oa.
9 And an evil spirit from God was upon Saul, and he was resting in his house, and a spear [was] in his hand, and David was playing on the harp with his hands.
To roho marach ma Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo thuolo nobiro kuom Saulo kama nobetie piny ei ode ka otingʼo tongʼe e lwete. Kane Daudi ne goyo nyatiti,
10 And Saul sought to strike David with the spear; and David withdrew [suddenly] from the presence of Saul; and he drove the spear into the wall; and David retreated and escaped.
Saulo notemo chwowe gi tongʼ mondo oriwe gi kor ot, to Daudi nolengʼe mi tongʼ nochwowo kor ot. Otienono Daudi notony maber modhi.
11 And it came to pass in that night, that Saul sent messengers to the house of David to watch him, in order to kill him in the morning; and Melchol David's wife told him, saying, Unless you save your life this night, to-morrow you shall be slain.
Saulo nooro ji mondo orit od Daudi kendo mondo onege gokinyi. To Mikal ma chi Daudi nosieme niya, “Ka ok iringo mi ikonyo ngimani otienoni to kiny nonegi.”
12 So Melchol lets David down by the window, and he departed, and fled, and escaped.
Eka Mikal nogolo Daudi gie dirisa, mine oringo motony.
13 And Melchol took images, and laid them on the bed, and she put the liver of a goat by his head, and covered them with clothes.
Eka Mikal nokawo gima opa mopiele e kitanda, moume gi law, bangʼe oketo yie diek moko e wiye.
14 And Saul sent messengers to take David; and they say that he is sick.
Kane Saulo ooro ji mondo omak Daudi, Mikal nowacho niya, “Otuo.”
15 And he sends to David, saying, Bring him to me on the bed, that I may kill him.
Kendo Saulo nooro jogo mondo odogi one Daudi mowachonegi niya, “Keleuru ira ka utingʼe e kitandane mondo omi anege.”
16 And the messengers come, and, behold, the images [were] on the bed, and the goat's liver at his head.
To ka jogo nodonjo negiyudo gima opa e kitanda, to yo ka wiye to oketie yie diek.
17 And Saul said to Melchol, Why have you thus deceived me, and suffered my enemy to depart, and he has escaped? and Melchol said to Saul, He said, let me go, and if not, I will kill you.
Saulo nowachone Mikal niya, “Angʼo momiyo iwuonda kama kiweyo jasika dhi matony?” Mikal nowachone niya, “Nowachona ni, ‘Weya adhi. Angʼo momiyo danegi.’”
18 So David fled, and escaped, and comes to Samuel to Armathaim, and tells him all that Saul had done to him: and Samuel and David went, and lived in Navath in Rama.
Kane Daudi oseringo motony, ne odhi Rama ir Samuel mi onyise timbe duto ma Saulo osetimone. Eka en gi Samuel negidhi Nayoth ma gibet kuno.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David [is] in Navath in Rama.
Wach nochopo ne Saulo niya, “Daudi ni Nayoth e gwengʼ Rama”
20 And Saul sent messengers to take David, and they saw the assembly of the prophets, and Samuel stood [as] appointed over them; and the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesy.
omiyo nooro ji mondo odhi omake. To kane gineno oganda jonabi ka koro wach ka gin gi Samuel kochungʼ kanyo kaka jatendgi Roho mar Nyasaye nomako joote Saulo ma gin bende negichako koro.
21 And it was told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied: and Saul sent again a third set of messengers, and they also prophesied.
Nonyis Saulo wachno, mi nooro ji moko to gin bende ne gikoro. Eka Saulo nooro joote kendo mar adek, to gin bende negimedo mana koro.
22 And Saul was very angry, and went himself also to Armathaim, and he comes as far as the well of the threshing floor that is in Sephi; and he asked and said, Where [are] Samuel and David? And they said, Behold, in Navath in Rama.
Mogik en owuon nowuok modhi Rama ka nochopo e Soko maduongʼ man Seku. Nopenjo niya, “Ere Samuel gi Daudi?” Negidwoke niya, “Gin Nayoth e gwengʼ Rama.”
23 And he went thence to Navath in Rama: and there came the Spirit of God upon him also, and he went on prophesying till he came to Navath in Rama.
Omiyo Saulo nodhi Nayoth e gwengʼ Rama. To en bende Roho mar Nyasaye nobiro kuome mi owuotho kokoro wach nyaka ochopo Nayoth.
24 And he took off his clothes, and prophesied before them; and lay down naked all that day and all that night: therefore they said, [Is] Saul also amongst the prophets?
Nogolo lepe mokoro wach e nyim Samuel. Nonindo kamano odiechiengʼ gotieno. Mano ema omiyo ji wacho niya, “Kare Saulo bende en achiel kuom jonabi?”
