1 Samuel 25

1 Then Samuel died, and all of Israel gathered together, and they mourned him. And they buried him at his house in Ramah. And David, rising up, descended to the desert of Paran.

Samuẹli sì kú; gbogbo ènìyàn Israẹli sì kó ara wọn jọ, wọ́n sì sọkún rẹ̀ wọ́n sì sin ín nínú ilé rẹ̀ ní Rama. Dafidi sì dìde, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ijù Parani.

2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were at Carmel. And this man was exceedingly great. And three thousand sheep, and one thousand goats were his. And it happened that he was shearing his sheep at Carmel.

Ọkùnrin kan sì ń bẹ ní Maoni, ẹni tí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ń bẹ ní Karmeli; ọkùnrin náà sì ní ọrọ̀ púpọ̀, ó sì ní ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àgùntàn, àti ẹgbẹ̀rún ewúrẹ́: ó sì ń rẹ irun àgùntàn rẹ̀ ní Karmeli.

3 Now the name of this man was Nabal. And the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a very prudent and beautiful woman. But her husband was hard-hearted, and very wicked, and malicious. And he was of the stock of Caleb.

Orúkọ ọkùnrin náà sì ń jẹ́ Nabali, orúkọ aya rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Abigaili; òun sì jẹ́ olóye obìnrin, àti arẹwà ènìyàn; ṣùgbọ́n òǹrorò àti oníwà búburú ni ọkùnrin; ẹni ìdílé Kalebu ni òun jẹ́.

4 Therefore, when David, in the desert, had heard that Nabal was shearing his sheep,

Dafidi sì gbọ́ ní aginjù pé Nabali ń rẹ́ irun àgùntàn rẹ̀.

5 he sent ten young men, and he said to them: “Ascend to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name peacefully.

Dafidi sì rán ọmọkùnrin mẹ́wàá, Dafidi sì sọ fún àwọn ọ̀dọ́kùnrin náà pé, “Ẹ gòkè lọ sí Karmeli, kí ẹ sì tọ Nabali lọ, kí ẹ sì kí i ni orúkọ mi.

6 And you shall say: ‘Peace be to my brothers and to you, and peace to your house, and peace to whatever you have.

Báyìí ni ẹ ó sì wí fún ẹni tí ó wà ni ìrora pé, ‘Àlàáfíà fún ọ! Àlàáfíà fún ohun gbogbo tí ìwọ ní!

7 I have heard that your shepherds, who were with us in the desert, were shearing. We have never troubled them, nor was anything from the flock missing to them at any time, during the entire time that they have been with us in Carmel.

“‘Ǹjẹ́ mo gbọ́ pé, àwọn olùrẹ́run ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ. Wò ó, àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn rẹ ti wà lọ́dọ̀ wa àwa kò sì pa wọ́n lára, wọn kò sì sọ ohunkóhun nù ní gbogbo ọjọ́ tí wọ́n wà ní Karmeli.

8 Question your servants, and they will tell you. Now therefore, may your servants find favor in your eyes. For we have arrived on a good day. Whatever your hand will find, give it to your servants and to your son David.’”

Bi àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ léèrè, wọn ó sì sọ fún ọ. Nítorí náà, jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọkùnrin wọ̀nyí rí ojúrere lọ́dọ̀ rẹ; nítorí pé àwa sá wá ní ọjọ́ àsè: èmi bẹ̀ ọ́ ohunkóhun tí ọwọ́ rẹ bá bà, fi fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, àti fún Dafidi ọmọ rẹ.’”

9 And when the servants of David had arrived, they spoke to Nabal all these words in the name of David. And then they were silent.

Àwọn ọmọkùnrin Dafidi sì lọ, wọ́n sì sọ fún Nabali gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí ní orúkọ Dafidi, wọ́n sì sinmi.

10 But Nabal, responding to the servants of David, said: “Who is David? And who is the son of Jesse? Today, servants who are fleeing from their lords are increasing.

Nabali sì dá àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi lóhùn pé, “Ta ni ń jẹ́ Dafidi? Tàbí ta ni sì ń jẹ́ ọmọ Jese? Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ ni ń bẹ ni ìsinsin yìí tí wọn sá olúkúlùkù kúrò lọ́dọ̀ olúwa rẹ̀.

11 Therefore, shall I take my bread, and my water, and the meat of the cattle that I have slain for my shearers, and give it to men, when I do not know where they are from?”

Ǹjẹ́ ki èmi o mú oúnjẹ mi, àti omi mi, àti ẹran mi ti mo pa fún àwọn olùrẹ́run mi, ki èmi sì fi fún àwọn ọkùnrin ti èmi kò mọ̀ ibi wọ́n ti wá?”

12 And so the servants of David traveled back along their way. And returning, they went and reported to him all the words that he had said.

Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọkùnrin Dafidi sì mú ọ̀nà wọn pọ̀n, wọ́n sì padà, wọ́n sì wá, wọn si rò fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bi gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.

13 Then David said to his servants, “Let each one gird his sword.” And each one girded his sword. And David also girded his sword. And about four hundred men followed David. But two hundred remained behind with the supplies.

Dafidi sí wí fún àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “Kí olúkúlùkù yín ó di idà rẹ́ mọ́ ìdí,” olúkúlùkù ọkùnrin sì di idà tirẹ̀ mọ́ ìdí; àti Dafidi pẹ̀lú sì di idà tirẹ̀; ìwọ̀n irinwó ọmọkùnrin si gòkè tọ Dafidi lẹ́yìn; igba si jókòó níbi ẹrù.

14 Then it was reported to Abigail, the wife of Nabal, by one of his servants, saying: “Behold, David has sent messengers from the desert, so that they might speak kindly to our lord. But he turned them away.

Ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin Nabali si wí fún Abigaili aya rẹ̀ pé, “Wo o, Dafidi rán oníṣẹ́ láti aginjù wá láti kí olúwa wa; ó sì kanra mọ́ wọn.

15 These men were good enough to us, and were not troublesome. Neither did we ever lose anything, during the entire time that we conversed with them in the desert.

Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin náà ṣe oore fún wa gidigidi, wọn kò ṣe wá ní ibi kan, ohunkóhun kò nù ni ọwọ́ wa ni gbogbo ọjọ́ ti àwa bá wọn rìn nígbà ti àwa ń bẹ lóko.

16 They were a wall to us, as much in the night as in the day, during all the days that we were with them, pasturing the sheep.

Odi ni wọ́n sá à jásí fún wa lọ́sàn án, àti lóru, ni gbogbo ọjọ́ ti a fi bá wọn gbé, tí a n bojútó àwọn àgùntàn.

17 For this reason, consider and realize what you should do. For evil has been decided against your husband and against your house. And he is a son of Belial, so that no one is able to speak to him.”

Ǹjẹ́, rò ó wò, kí ìwọ sì mọ èyí ti ìwọ yóò ṣe; nítorí pé a ti gbèrò ibi sí olúwa wa, àti sí gbogbo ilé rẹ̀; òun sì jásí ọmọ Beliali tí a kò le sọ̀rọ̀ fún.”

18 And so Abigail hurried, and she took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five cooked sheep, and five measures of cooked grain, and one hundred clusters of dried grapes, and two hundred masses of dried figs, and she set them upon donkeys.

Abigaili sì yára, ó sì mú igbá ìṣù àkàrà àti ìgò ọtí wáìnì méjì, àti àgùntàn márùn-ún, tí a ti ṣè, àti òsùwọ̀n àgbàdo yíyan márùn-ún, àti ọgọ́rùn-ún ìdì àjàrà, àti igba àkàrà èso ọ̀pọ̀tọ́, ó sì dìwọ́n ru kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.

19 And she said to her servants: “Go before me. Behold, I will follow after your back.” But she did not reveal it to her husband, Nabal.

Òun sì wí fún àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “Máa lọ níwájú mi; wò ó, èmi ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn yín,” ṣùgbọ́n òun kò wí fún Nabali baálé rẹ̀.

20 And when she had climbed on a donkey, and was descending to the base of the mountain, David and his men were descending to meet her. And she met them.

Bí o ti gun orí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tí ó sì ń sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibi ìkọ̀kọ̀ òkè náà, wò ó, Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀; òun sì wá pàdé wọn.

21 And David said: “Truly, in vain have I preserved all that was his in the wilderness, so that nothing perished out of all that belonged to him. And he has repaid evil to me for good.

Dafidi sì ti wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ lásán ni èmi ti pa gbogbo èyí tí i ṣe ti eléyìí ní aginjù, ti ohunkóhun kò sì nù nínú gbogbo èyí ti í ṣe tirẹ̀: òun ni ó sì fi ibi san ìre fún mi yìí.

22 May God do these things, by the enemies of David, and may he add these other things, if I leave behind until morning, out of all that belongs to him, anything that urinates against a wall.”

Bẹ́ẹ̀ àti jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ, ni ki Ọlọ́run ó ṣe sí àwọn ọ̀tá Dafidi, bi èmi bá fi ọkùnrin kan sílẹ̀ nínú gbogbo èyí tí i ṣe tirẹ̀ títí di ìmọ́lẹ̀ òwúrọ̀.”

23 Then, when Abigail had seen David, she hurried and descended from the donkey. And she fell upon her face before David, and she reverenced on the ground.

Abigaili sì rí Dafidi, ó sì yára, ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lórí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, ó sì dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú Dafidi, ó sì rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.

24 And she fell at his feet, and she said: “May this iniquity be upon me, my lord. I beg you, let your handmaid speak to your ears, and listen to the words of your servant.

Ó sì wólẹ̀ lẹ́bàá ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, ó wí pé, “Olúwa mi, fi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yìí yá mi: kí ó sì jẹ́ kí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, sọ̀rọ̀ létí rẹ, kí ó sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ.

25 Let not my lord, the king, I beseech you, set his heart upon this iniquitous man, Nabal. For in accord with his name, he is senseless, and foolishness is with him. But I, your handmaid, did not see your servants, my lord, whom you had sent.

Olúwa mi, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́ má ka ọkùnrin Beliali yìí sí, àní Nabali. Nítorí pé bí orúkọ rẹ̀ ti jẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun náà rí. Nabali ni orúkọ rẹ̀, àìmoye si wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n èmi ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ kò ri àwọn ọmọkùnrin olúwa mi, ti ìwọ rán.

26 Now therefore, my lord, as your soul lives, and as the Lord lives, who has kept your hand to yourself, and has prevented you from coming to blood: now, let your enemies be like Nabal, and like all those who are seeking evil for my lord.

Ǹjẹ́ olúwa mi, bi Olúwa ti wà láààyè, àti bí ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ si ti wà láààyè, bi Olúwa sì ti dá ọ dúró láti wá ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀, àti láti fi ọwọ́ ara rẹ gba ẹ̀san; ǹjẹ́, kí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, àti àwọn ẹni tí ń gbèrò ibi sí olúwa mi rí bi i Nabali.

27 Because of this, accept this blessing, which your handmaid has brought to you, my lord. And give it to the young men who follow you, my lord.

Ǹjẹ́ èyí ni ẹ̀bùn tí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ mú wá fún olúwa mi, jẹ́ kí a sì fi fún àwọn ọmọkùnrin ti ń tọ olúwa mi lẹ́yìn.

28 Forgive the iniquity of your handmaid. For the Lord will surely make for you, my lord, a faithful house, because you, my lord, fight the battles of the Lord. Therefore, let no evil be found in you all the days of your life.

“Èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, fi ìrékọjá arábìnrin rẹ jìn ín, nítorí Olúwa yóò sá ṣe ilé òdodo fún olúwa mi, nítorí pé ó ja ogun Olúwa. Nítorí náà kí a má ri ibi kan ni ọwọ́ rẹ níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó wà láààyè.

29 For if a man, at any time, will rise up, pursuing you and seeking your life, the life of my lord will be preserved, as if in the sheave of the living, with the Lord your God. But the lives of your enemies will be spun around, as if with the force of a whirling sling.

Bí ọkùnrin kan bá sì dìde láti máa lépa rẹ, àti máa wá ẹ̀mí rẹ, a ó sì di ẹ̀mí olúwa mi nínú ìdì ìyè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ; àti ẹ̀mí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ ni a ó sì gbọ̀n sọnù gẹ́gẹ́ bí kànnàkànnà jáde.

30 Therefore, when the Lord will have done for you, my lord, all the good that he has spoken about you, and when he will have appointed you as leader over Israel,

Yóò sì ṣe, Olúwa yóò ṣe sí olúwa mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ìre tí ó ti wí nípa tirẹ̀, yóò sì yàn ọ́ ni aláṣẹ lórí Israẹli.

31 this will not be for you a regret or a scruple of the heart, my lord, that you had shed innocent blood, or had taken revenge for yourself. And when the Lord will have done well for my lord, you shall remember your handmaid.”

Èyí kì yóò sì jásí ìbànújẹ́ fún ọ, tàbí ìbànújẹ́ ọkàn fún olúwa mi, nítorí pé ìwọ ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀, tàbí pé olúwa mi gba ẹ̀san fún ara rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Olúwa ba ṣe oore fún olúwa mi, ǹjẹ́ rántí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ!”

32 And David said to Abigail: “Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me. And blessed is your eloquence.

Dafidi sì wí fún Abigaili pé, “Alábùkún fún ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, tí ó rán ọ lónìí yìí láti pàdé mi.

33 And blessed are you, who prevented me today from going to blood, and from taking revenge for myself with my own hand.

Ìbùkún ni fún ọgbọ́n rẹ, alábùkún sì ni ìwọ, tí ó da mi dúró lónìí yìí láti wá ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀, àti láti fi ọwọ́ mi gba ẹ̀san fún ara mi.

34 But instead, as the Lord God of Israel lives, he has prevented me from doing evil to you. But if you had not come quickly to meet me, there would not have been left to Nabal by the morning light, anything that urinates against a wall.”

Nítòótọ́, bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli tí ń bẹ, tí ó da mi dúró láti pa ọ́ lára bí kò ṣe pé bí ìwọ ti yára tí ó sì wá pàdé mi, nítòótọ́ kì bá tí kù fún Nabali di ìmọ́lẹ̀ òwúrọ̀ nínú àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ̀.”

35 Then David received from her hand all that she had brought to him. And he said to her: “Go in peace to your own house. Behold, I have heeded your voice, and I have honored your face.”

Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi sì gba nǹkan tí ó mú wá fún un lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Gòkè lọ ni àlàáfíà sí ilé rẹ, wò ó, èmi ti gbọ́ ohùn rẹ, inú mi sì dùn sí ọ.”

36 Then Abigail went to Nabal. And behold, he was holding a feast for himself in his house, like the feast of a king. And the heart of Nabal was cheerful. For he was greatly inebriated. And she did not reveal a word to him, small or great, until morning.

Abigaili sì tọ Nabali wá, sì wò ó, òun sì ṣe àsè ni ilé rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àsè ọba: inú Nabali sì dùn nítorí pé, ó ti mú ọtí ni àmupara; òun kò si sọ nǹkan fún un, díẹ̀ tàbí púpọ̀: títí di ìmọ́lẹ̀ òwúrọ̀

37 Then, at first light, when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife revealed to him these words, and his heart died within himself, and he became like a stone.

Ó sì ṣe; ni òwúrọ̀, nígbà ti ọtí náà si dá tán lójú Nabali, obìnrin rẹ̀ sì ro nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún un, ọkàn rẹ sì kú nínú rẹ̀, òun sì dàbí òkúta.

38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.

Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn ìwọ̀n ọjọ́ mẹ́wàá, Olúwa lu Nabali, ó sì kú.

39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: “Blessed is the Lord, who has judged the case of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and who has preserved his servant from evil. And the Lord has repaid the malice of Nabal upon his own head.” Then David sent and he spoke with Abigail, so that he might take her to himself as wife.

Dafidi sì gbọ́ pé Nabali kú, ó sì wí pé, “Ìyìn ni fún Olúwa tí o gbèjà gígàn mi láti ọwọ́ Nabali wá, tí ó sì dá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ dúró láti ṣe ibi: Olúwa sì yí ìkà Nabali sí orí òun tìkára rẹ̀.” Dafidi sì ránṣẹ́, ó sì ba Abigaili sọ̀rọ̀ láti mú un fi ṣe aya fún ara rẹ̀.

40 And David’s servants went to Abigail at Carmel, and they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you, so that he might take you to himself as wife.”

Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Abigaili ni Karmeli, wọn sì sọ fún un pé, “Dafidi rán wá si ọ láti mu ọ ṣe aya rẹ̀.”

41 And rising up, she reverenced prone on the ground, and she said, “Behold, let your servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”

Ó sì dìde, ó sì dojúbolẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Wò ó, jẹ́ kí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ ó jẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ kan láti máa wẹ ẹsẹ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ olúwa mi.”

42 And Abigail rose up and hurried, and she climbed upon a donkey, and five girls went with her, her attendants. And she followed the messengers of David, and she became his wife.

Abigaili sì yára, ó sì dìde, ó sì gun kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ̀ márùn-ún sì tẹ̀lé e lẹ́yìn; òun sì tẹ̀lé àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Dafidi, o sì wá di aya rẹ̀.

43 Moreover, David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel. And both of them were his wives.

Dafidi sì mú Ahinoamu ará Jesreeli; àwọn méjèèjì sì jẹ́ aya rẹ̀.

44 Then Saul gave his daughter Michal, the wife of David, to Palti, the son of Laish, who was from Gallim.

Ṣùgbọ́n Saulu ti fi Mikali ọmọ rẹ̀ obìnrin aya Dafidi, fún Palti ọmọ Laiṣi tí i ṣe ara Galimu.
