1 Samuel 19
1 Now Saul spoke to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, so that they would kill David. But Jonathan, the son of Saul, loved David very much.
Ary Saoly niresaka tamin’ i Jonatana zanany sy tamin’ ny mpanompony rehetra ny amin’ izay hahafaty an’ i Davida. Fa Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, kosa tia dia tia an’ i Davida.
2 And Jonathan revealed it to David, saying: “Saul, my father, is seeking to kill you. Because of this, I ask you, take care for yourself in the morning. And you should conceal yourself and remain in hiding.
Ary Jonatana nanambara tamin’ i Davida hoe: Saoly raiko mitady hamono anao; koa, masìna ianao, tandremo ny tenanao rahampitso maraina, ary mitoera amin’ izay fitoerana mangingina, ka miere;
3 Then I, going out, will be standing beside my father in the field, where you will be. And I will speak about you to my father. And whatever I see, I will report to you.”
ary izaho hivoaka ka hitsangana eo anilan’ ikaky amin’ ny saha izay misy anao, dia hiresaka aminy ny aminao; koa izay hitako dia hambarako aminao.
4 Then Jonathan spoke good things about David to his father Saul. And he said to him: “You should not sin, O king, against your servant David. For he has not sinned against you, and his works toward you are very good.
Ary Jonatana nilaza soa an’ i Davida tamin’ i Saoly rainy, ka hoy izy taminy: Aoka ny mpanjaka tsy hanisy ratsy an’ i Davida mpanompony, fa izy tsy nanisy ratsy anao, sady nahasoa anao indrindra ny nataony,
5 And he took his life in his own hand, and struck down the Philistine. And the Lord wrought a great salvation for all of Israel. You saw it, and you rejoiced. Why then would you sin against innocent blood by killing David, who is without guilt?”
fa izy efa nanao ny ainy tsy ho zavatra ka namono ny Filistina, ary Jehovah nahavita famonjena lehibe ho an’ ny Isiraely rehetra; ianao nahita izany ka faly; koa nahoana no dia hanota handatsaka rà marina ianao ka hahafaty foana an’ i Davida?
6 And when Saul had heard this, being pleased by the voice of Jonathan, he swore, “As the Lord lives, he shall not be killed.”
Ary Saoly nihaino ny tenin’ i Jonatana ka nianiana hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia tsy hatao maty izy.
7 And so Jonathan called David, and he revealed to him all of these words. And Jonathan led in David to Saul, and he was before him, just as he had been yesterday and the day before.
Ary Jonatana niantso an’ i Davida ka nanambara izany rehetra Izany taminy, dia nitondra an’ i Davida ho eo amin’ i Saoly, ka dia nitoetra teo anatrehany tahaka ny teo aloha ihany indray izy.
8 Then the war was stirred up again. And David went out and fought against the Philistines. And he struck them down with a great slaughter. And they fled from his face.
Ary mbola nisy ady ihany; dia nivoaka Davida ka niady tamin’ ny Filistina ary nahafaty betsaka, ka dia nandositra azy ireny.
9 And the evil spirit from the Lord came to Saul, who was sitting in his house and holding a lance. And David was playing music with his hand.
Ary nisy fanahy ratsy avy tany amin’ i Jehovah tonga tao amin’ i Saoly, raha nipetraka tao an-tranony izy sy nitana ny lefony teny an-tànany; ary Davida nitendry lokanga tamin’ ny tànany.
10 And Saul attempted to fix David to the wall with the lance. But David turned aside from the face of Saul. And the lance failed to wound him, and it became fixed in the wall. And David fled, and so he was saved that night.
Ary Saoly nihendry hamely an’ i Davida tamin’ ny lefona, ka hataony miboroaka mihatra amin’ ny rindrina; fa izy nisoroka niala teo anatrehan’ i Saoly, ka ny rindrina no voan’ ny lefona; dia nandositra Davida ka afaka tamin’ iny alina iny ihany.
11 Therefore, Saul sent his guards to David’s house, so that they might watch for him, and so that he might be killed in the morning. And after Michal, his wife, had reported this to David, saying, “Unless you save yourself this night, tomorrow you will die,”
Ary Saoly naniraka olona hankany amin’ ny tranon’ i Davida hiambina azy hahafaty azy raha maraina; fa Mikala, vadin’ i Davida, nilaza taminy hoe: Raha tsy mamonjy ny ainao anio alina ianao, dia hatao maty raha maraina.
12 she lowered him down through a window. Then he fled and went away, and he was saved.
Ary Mikala nampidina an’ i Davida tamin’ ny varavarankely; ka dia lasa nandositra izy ka afaka.
13 Then Michal took a statue, and placed it on the bed. And she placed the pelt of a goat for the hair at its head. And she covered it with clothes.
Ary nalain’ i Mikala ny sampy, dia napetrany teo amin’ ny farafarany, ka nosaronany makarakara volon’ osy ny lohany, dia norakofany ny lamba izy.
14 And Saul sent attendants to seize David. And it was answered that he was sick.
Ary nony naniraka haka an’ i Davida Saoly, dia hoy ny vavy: Marary izy.
15 And again, Saul sent messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him to me on the bed, so that he may be killed.”
Ary Saoly naniraka ny olona hizaha an’ i Davida indray ka nanao hoe: Ento miakatra atỳ amiko amin’ ny farafara izy hovonoiko.
16 And when the messengers had arrived, they found a likeness on the bed, with a goat pelt at its head.
Dia niditra ny iraka, kanjo, indro, ny sampy no teo am-parafara, ary voasaron’ ilay makarakara volon’ osy ny lohany.
17 And Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me in this way, and released my enemy, so that he may flee?” And Michal responded to Saul, “Because he said to me, ‘Release me, otherwise I will kill you.’”
Dia hoy Saoly tamin’ i Mikala: Nahoana ianao no namitaka ahy toy izany ka nandefa ny fahavaloko, ary afa-nandositra izy? Fa hoy Mikala tamin’ i Saoly: Hoy izy tamiko: Avelao aho handeha, fandrao hovonoiko
18 Now David was saved by fleeing, and he went to Samuel in Ramah. And he reported to him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went away and stayed at Naioth.
Dia nandositra Davida ka afaka ary tonga tany amin’ i Samoela tany Rama, dia nambarany azy izay rehetra nataon’ i Saoly taminy; ary nandeha izy sy Samoela ka nonina tany Naiota.
19 Then it was reported to Saul by some, saying, “Behold, David is at Naioth, in Ramah.”
Ary nisy nanambara tamin’ i Saoly hoe: Indro, Davida ao Naiota any Rama.
20 Therefore, Saul sent officers to seize David. And when they had seen a company of prophets prophesying, with Samuel presiding over them, the Spirit of the Lord also came to them, and they also began to prophesy.
Ary Saoly naniraka olona hisambotra an’ i Davida; ary nony hitan’ ireo ny mpaminany tafangona sy maminany ary Samoela mitsangana eo ho lohany, dia tonga tamin’ ny irak’ i Saoly ny Fanahin’ Andriamanitra, ka dia mba naminany koa izy.
21 And when this was reported to Saul, he sent other messengers. But they also prophesied. And again, Saul sent messengers a third time. And they also prophesied. And Saul, being exceedingly angry,
Ary nony nisy nanambara izany tamin’ i Saoly, dia naniraka olon-kafa izy, ary ireo koa dia mba naminany. Ary Saoly naniraka olonkafa indray fanintelony, nefa naminany ihany koa ireo.
22 also went to Ramah himself. And he went as far as the great cistern, which is in Socoh. And he inquired and said, “In which place are Samuel and David?” And it was told to him, “Behold, they are at Naioth, in Ramah.”
Ary dia lasa nankany Rama koa ny tenany, ary tonga tao amin’ ny lavaka lehibe famorian-drano izay ao Seko izy ka nanontany hoe: Aiza Samoela sy Davida? Ary hoy ny anankiray: Indreo ao Naiota any Rama izy.
23 And he went to Naioth, in Ramah, and the Spirit of the Lord came to him also. And he continued on, walking and prophesying, until he arrived at Naioth, in Ramah.
Dia nankany Naiota any Rama Saoly, ary tonga tao aminy koa ny Fanahin’ Andriamanitra, dia nandroso izy sady naminany teny am-pandehanana ambara-pahatongany tany Naiota any Rama.
24 And he also took off his garments, and he prophesied with the others before Samuel. And he fell down naked, throughout that day and night. From this, too, is derived the proverb, “Could Saul also be among the prophets?”
Ary nanaisotra ny fitafiany koa izy ka mba naminany tahaka ny sasany teo anatrehan’ i Samoela, ary izy nandry nitanjaka mandritra iny andro sy alina iny. Koa izany no nanaovan’ ny olona hoe: Saoly koa moa mba isan’ ny mpaminany?
