1 Samuel 17
1 And the Philistines assembled their armies to battle, and were gathered together at Sochoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Sochoh and Azekah, in Ephesdammim.
Koro jo-Filistia nochoko jolweny mag-gi mondo gikedi kendo negichokore kama iluongo ni Soko e piny Juda. Negijot Efes-Damin man e kind Soko gi Azeka.
2 And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the valley of terebinths, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
Saulo gi jo-Israel to nochokore mine gibworo e Holo mar Ela kendo negichanore mondo girad gi jo-Filistia.
3 And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side; and the ravine was between them.
Jo-Filistia ne ni ewi got moro to jo-Israel bende ne ni e got machielo to holo ne ni e kindgi.
4 And there went out a champion from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
Thuon ma nyinge Goliath, ma ja-Gath nowuok koa e kambi mar jo-Filistia. Borne ne en fut ochiko.
5 And he had a helmet of bronze upon his head, and he was clothed with a corselet of scales; and the weight of the corselet was five thousand shekels of bronze.
Nosidho ogut mula e wiye kendo norwako koti mar lweny mar mula ma pekne oromo kilo piero abich gi abiriyo,
6 And he had greaves of bronze upon his legs, and a javelin of bronze between his shoulders.
ogwendene to norwakoe mula mothedhi, kendo noliero tongʼ mar mula e ngʼeye.
7 And the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron; and the shield-bearer went before him.
Bond tongʼe ne chalo gi lodi, lew tonge to pekne ne romo kilo abiriyo. Jatingʼne okumba notelo nyime.
8 And he stood and cried to the ranks of Israel, and said to them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I the Philistine, and ye servants of Saul? choose for yourselves a man, and let him come down to me.
Goliath nochungʼ mokok ne jolweny mag Israel niya, “Angʼo momiyo ubiro kendo uriedo ne lweny? Donge an ja-Filistia, to un, donge un jotich Saulo? Yieruru ngʼato mondo olor obi kama antieni.
9 If he be able to fight with me, and to smite me, then will we be your servants; but if I overcome and smite him, then shall ye be our servants and serve us.
To konyalo kedo koda monega, to wabiro bedo jotiju, to ka ahinge mi anege, to ubiro bedo jotijwa ma tiyonwa.”
10 And the Philistine said, I have defied the ranks of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.
Eka ja-Filistiano nowacho niya, “Kawuononi athiano ne jolweny mag Israel! Miyauru ngʼato mondo wakedgo.”
11 And Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, and they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
Kane Saulo gi jo-Israel owinjo weche ja-Filistia, kibaji nogoyogi mi luoro nomakogi.
12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem-Judah whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons; and the man was old in the days of Saul, advanced [in years] among men.
Daudi ne en wuod ja-Efrath miluongo ni Jesse mane oa Bethlehem e piny Juda. Jesse ne nigi yawuowi aboro to e ndalo Saulo ne en ngʼat moti ma hike ngʼeny.
13 And the three eldest of the sons of Jesse had gone and followed Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and the second to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
Yawuot Jesse adek madongo noluwo Saulo e lweny. Wuowi maduongʼ ne en Eliab, mar ariyo ne Abinadab, to mar adek ne en Shama.
14 And David was the youngest; and the three eldest had followed Saul.
Daudi ema ne wuowi matin kuomgi. Yawuowi adek madongo noluwo bangʼ Saulo,
15 But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.
to Daudi ne jadok kinde ka kinde koa ir Saulo mondo odhi okwa romb wuon-gi Bethlehem.
16 And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
Kuom ndalo piero angʼwen ja-Filistiano ne wuok okinyi godhiambo konyisore.
17 And Jesse said to David his son, Take, I pray, for thy brethren, this ephah of parched [corn] and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to thy brethren;
Koro Jesse nowachone Daudi wuode niya, “Kaw atonga mopongʼ gi bando mobul kod makati apar mondo ireti iterne oweteni e kambigi.
18 and carry these ten cheeses to the captain of the thousand, and visit thy brethren to see how they are, and take a pledge of them.
Kaw bende chak mopoto mongʼin apar mondo itergi ne jatendgi. Nenane kaka oweteni dhi mondo iduogna wach maber moa kuomgi.
19 Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel [were] in the valley of terebinths, fighting against the Philistines.
Gin gi Saulo gi jo-Israel duto e holo mar Ela, ka gikedo gi jo-Filistia.”
20 And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took his charge and went, as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the wagon-defence; and the host which was going forth to the battle-array shouted for the fight.
Okinyi mangʼich Daudi noweyo rombe gi jokwath, notweyo misike mowuok odhi kaka Jesse nonyise. Nochopo e kambi ka jolweny wuok dhi e paw lweny, ka gigoyo koko kendo gigiyo sigich lweny.
21 And Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, rank against rank.
Jo-Israel kod jo-Filistia nochanore koni gi kocha ka gimanyore.
22 And David left the things he was carrying in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran into the ranks, and came and saluted his brethren.
Daudi noweyo gigege gi jarit gik moko moringo odhi ir jolweny mi omoso owetene.
23 And as he talked with them, behold there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and spoke according to the same words; and David heard [them].
Kane pod owuoyo kodgi, Goliath mathuon jo-Filistia ma ja-Gath nowuok kuom jolweny kakok kawacho wechege mag ajara mapile kendo Daudi nowinje.
24 And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were greatly afraid.
Kane jo-Israel oneno ngʼatno, to giduto ne giringe ka giluor ahinya.
25 And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that comes up? for to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who smites him, him will the king enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.
Koro noyudo ka jo-Israel osebedo kawacho niya, “Donge uneno kaka ngʼatni osiko wuok? Owuok, mana mar jaro, Israel. Ruoth biro chiwo mwandu mathoth ne ngʼat monege. Bende obiro miye nyare mondo okendi, joodgi bende ok nogol osuru e Israel.”
26 And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that smites this Philistine, and takes away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?
Daudi nopenjo joma nochungʼ machiegni kode niya, “Ibiro tim angʼo ne ngʼat monego ja-Filistiani magol wichkuodni e Israel? Ja-Filistia ma ok oter nyangu to en ngʼa manyalo jaro jolweny mag Nyasaye mangima?”
27 And the people told him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that smites him.
Neginwoyone weche mane oyudo giwacho mi giwachone niya, “Ma e gima ibiro timo ne ngʼat manonege.”
28 And Eliab, his eldest brother, heard while he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why art thou come down? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride and the naughtiness of thy heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.
Kane Eliab mowadgi Daudi maduongʼ, owinje ka owuoyo gi ji, mirima nomake kode mopenje niya, “Ibiro ka nangʼo? To rombe manok ka to iweyo gi ngʼa e thim? Angʼeyo ni in jangʼayi bende pachi richo, isebiro mana ni mondo ine kaka lweny dhi.”
29 And David said, What have I now done? Was it not laid upon me?
Daudi nowacho niya, “Koro sani to atimo angʼo? Ok anyal kata wuoyoe?”
30 And he turned from him to another, and spoke after the same manner; and the people answered him again after the former manner.
Eka nolokore mochako wuoyo gi ngʼama chielo konono mana wachno kendo ji nodwoke mana wach machalre gi manosewinjo.
31 And the words were heard which David spoke, and they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him.
Gima Daudi nowacho nolandore mochopo ne Saulo eka Saulo noluonge.
32 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him: thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.
Daudi nowachone Saulo niya, “Kik chuny ji nyosre nikech ja-Filistiani; jatichni biro dhi mondo oked kode.”
33 And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
Saulo nodwoko niya, “In ok inyal dhi kedo gi ja-Filistia nikech in mana rawera, to en to osebedo kokedo chakre tin-ne.”
34 And David said to Saul, Thy servant fed his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and also a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock.
To Daudi nowacho ni Saulo niya, “Jatichni osebedo kakwayo romb wuon-gi. Ka sibuor kata ondiek omako achiel kuom rombwa,
35 And I went after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth; and when he arose against me, I seized him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.
to ne alawe kendo agoye mi amaye rombo kagolo e dhoge. Kane ochikore ira, ne amake gi yie dende mi agoye kendo anege.
36 Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God.
Jatichni osenego sibuor gi ondiek; ja-Filistia ma ok oter nyanguni, biro bedo achiel kuomgi nikech osejaro jolwenj Nyasaye mangima.
37 And David said, Jehovah who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and Jehovah be with thee.
Jehova Nyasaye mane oresa e kok sibuor gi kok ondiek biro resa e lwet ja-Filistiani.” Saulo nowachone Daudi niya, “Dhi kendo Jehova Nyasaye obed kodi.”
38 And Saul clothed David with his dress, and put a helmet of bronze upon his head, and clothed him with a corselet.
Eka Saulo norwako Daudi gi lawe owuon. Norwakone koti mar lweny kendo nosidhone ogudu mar mula e wiye.
39 And David girded his sword upon his dress, and endeavoured to go; for he had not yet tried [it]. And David said to Saul, I cannot go in these; for I have never tried [them]. And David put them off him.
Daudi notweyo liganglane ewi law mi notemo wuothogo nikech ne ok ongʼiyo gi gigo. Nowachone Saulo niya, “Ok anyal dhi gi gigi nikech ok angʼiyo kodgi.” Omiyo nogonyogi oko.
40 And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag that he had, into the pocket; and his sling was in his hand. And he drew near to the Philistine.
Eka nokawo ludhe mi oyiero kite mapoth abich ei aora kendo noketogi e ofukune mar kwath mi otingʼo orujre e lwete kendo osudo machiegni gi ja-Filistiano.
41 And the Philistine came on and approached David; and the man that bore the shield was before him.
E kindeno, ja-Filistiano gi jatingʼ kuode, ne sudo machiegni gi Daudi.
42 And when the Philistine looked about and saw David, he disdained him; for he was a youth, and ruddy, and besides of a beautiful countenance.
Eka norango Daudi konone moneno ni en mana rawera ma silwal, ma jaber, mine obuone.
43 And the Philistine said to David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Nowachone Daudi niya, “An guok mibirona kitongʼona kete?” Ja-Filistia nokwongʼo Daudi gi nying nyisechene.
44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the fowls of the heavens and to the beasts of the field.
Nowachone niya, “Bi ka abiro miyo winy ma e kor yamo ringi gi le man e thim.”
45 And David said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with sword, and with spear, and with javelin; but I come to thee in the name of Jehovah of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.
Daudi nowachone ja-Filistiano niya, “Ibirona gi ligangla kod tongʼ gi bidhi, anto abironi e nying Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach jolweny Israel ma iseyanyo.
46 This day will Jehovah deliver thee up into my hand; and I will smite thee, and take thy head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the camp of the Philistines this day to the fowl of the heavens and to the wild beasts of the earth. And all the earth shall know that Israel has a God;
Kawuononi Jehova Nyasaye biro keti e lweta, abiro goyi piny mi angʼad ngʼuti. Kawuono abiro miyo winy mae kor polo gi le man e thim ringre jolweny mag jo-Filistia, kendo piny mangima biro ngʼeyo ni nitie Nyasaye ei Israel.
47 and all this congregation shall know that Jehovah saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is Jehovah's, and he will give you into our hands.
Ji duto mochokore ka biro ngʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye ok res joge gi ligangla gi tongʼ nimar lweny en mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo obiro chiwou uduto e lwetwa.”
48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and advanced to meet David, that David hasted, and ran towards the ranks to meet the Philistine.
Kane ja-Filistiano osudo machiegni mondo oked kode, Daudi ne oringo mapiyo piyo kochiko kar kedo mondo orom kode.
49 And David put his hand into the bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, and the stone sank into his forehead; and he fell on his face to the earth.
Nosoyo lwete ei mifukune mogolo kidi; eka noketo kidino e orujre mine odiro mogoyogo lend wangʼ ja-Filistiano. Kidi nodonjo e lend wangʼe mine opodho piny auma.
50 So David overcame the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and smote the Philistine and killed him; and there was no sword in the hand of David.
Omiyo Daudi noloyo ja-Filistiano gi orujre kod kidi; ka oonge gi ligangla e lwete nogoyo ja-Filistiano piny monege.
51 And David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of its sheath, and killed him completely, and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they fled.
Daudi noringo mochungʼ kuome. Nokawo ligangla ja-Filistia mowuodho e olalone kane osenege, nongʼado wiye gi ligangla. Kane jo-Filistia oneno ni thuon-gi osetho negilokore mi gichako ngʼwech.
52 And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou comest to the ravine and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down on the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.
Eka jo-Israel gi jo-Juda nosudo machiegni negigiyo sigich lweny mi gilawo jo-Filistia nyaka gichopi kama idonjogo Gath nyaka rangeye mag Ekron. Ringre jogi motho nokeyore e yo madhi Sharaim nyaka Gath gi Ekron.
53 And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they pillaged their camps.
Kane jo-Israel odwogo koa lawo jo-Filistia, ne giyako kargi mar bworo.
54 And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.
Daudi nokawo wi ja-Filistia mokelo Jerusalem, to gige lweny mag ja-Filistia notero e hembe owuon.
55 And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this young man? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I cannot tell.
Kane Saulo orango Daudi e sa mane odhi rado gi ja-Filistia, nopenjo Abner mane jatend jolweny niya, “Abner wuowini en wuod ngʼa?” Abner nodwoko niya “Yaye ruoth, akwongʼora e nyimi ni ok angʼeye.”
56 And the king said, Inquire thou whose son this youth is.
Ruoth nowachone niya, “Non ane ni wuowini en wuod ngʼa?”
57 And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
Mapiyo piyo kane Daudi odwogo koa nego ja-Filistia, Abner nokawe motere e nyim Saulo, kapod Daudi otingʼo wi ja-Filistia.
58 And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, young man? And David said, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Beth-lehemite.
Saulo nopenje niya, “Wuowi matin in wuod ngʼa?” Daudi nodwoko niya, “An wuod Jesse ma ja-Bethlehem ma jatichni.”
