1 Samuel 21
1 And David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech trembled at meeting David, and said to him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?
Daudi nodhi Nob ir Ahimelek jadolo. Ahimelek nokirni kane oromo kode mopenjo niya, “Angʼo momiyo in kendi? Angʼo momiyo ngʼato ok obiro kodi?”
2 And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has commanded me a business, and has said to me, Let no man know anything of the business whereon I send thee, and what I have commanded thee; and I have directed the young men to such and such a place.
Daudi nodwoko Ahimelek jadolo niya, “Ruoth oseora e ote moro konyisa ni, ‘Kik ngʼato ngʼe gimoro amora kuom oteni kod gik monyisi mondo itim.’ Joga to asechiko mondo waromgo kamoro.
3 And now what is under thy hand? give me five loaves in my hand, or what may be found.
Angʼo ma in-go ka sani? Miya makati abich kata gimoro amora minyalo yudo.”
4 And the priest answered David and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
To jadolo nodwoko Daudi niya, “Aonge gi makati moro amora makmana nitiere moko mowal ka, ginyalo tiyo kode mana ka giseritore ma ok gibedo e achiel gi mon.”
5 And David answered the priest and said to him, Yes indeed, women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the [bread] is in a manner common, and the more so, because to-day [new] is hallowed in the vessels.
Daudi nodwoke niya, “Adier wasebedo mabor gi mon, mana kaka wajatimo kinde ma awuok oko. Ringre chwo to ler kata mana e ote moko ma ok ler. To koro kawuononi digibed maler maromo nade!”
6 And the priest gave him holy [bread]; for there was no bread there but the shew-loaves that were taken from before Jehovah, to put on hot bread in the day when they were taken away.
Eka jadolo nomiye makati mowal nikech ne onge makati moro amora makmana makati moket e Nyim Jehova Nyasaye migolo oko chiengʼ miketo makati maliet kargi.
7 (Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before Jehovah; and his name was Doeg, the Edomite, chief of the shepherds that [belonged] to Saul.)
Koro jatich Saulo moro ne nitie kanyo chiengʼno mane ogengʼne e nyim Jehova Nyasaye; ne en Doeg ma ja-Edom, mane jatend jokwadh Saulo.
8 And David said to Ahimelech, And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, for the king's business was urgent.
Daudi nopenjo Ahimelek niya, “Donge dibedie gi tongʼ kata ligangla moro amora ka? Ne ok akawo ligangla kata gir lweny moro amora, nikech ote ruoth nobirona mapiyo.”
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of terebinths, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if thou wilt take that, take it; for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that: give it me.
Jadolo nodwoke niya, “Ligangla Goliath ja-Filistia, mane inego e holo mar Ela, nika; oboye gi law en e tok law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod. Ka idware to kawe, onge ligangla moro makmana mano.” Daudi nowacho niya, “Onge moro amora machal kode; miyago.”
10 And David arose, and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
Chiengʼno Daudi noringo Saulo mi odhi ir Akish ruoth Gath.
11 And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul has smitten his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
To jotich Akish nowachone niya, “Donge ngʼatni e Daudi ma ruodh pinygi? Donge en ema gimielne ka giwer ni: “‘Saulo osenego ji alufe, to Daudi onego alufe gi alufe’?”
12 And David took to heart these words, and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
Wechegi nodonjo e chuny Daudi mi nomiyo oluoro Akish ruoth Gath ahinya.
13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scratched on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard.
Omiyo nowuondore ni en janeko e nyimgi kanyo, kane en e lwetgi notimo timbe mag janeko, kogwaro dhorangach kendo koweyo olawo wuok e dhoge nyaka e yie tike.
14 And Achish said to his servants, Behold, ye see the man is mad: why did ye bring him to me?
Akish nowachone jotije niya, “Ngʼiuru ngʼatni en janeko! Angʼo momiyo ukele ira?
15 have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this one to rave in my presence? shall this [man] come into my house?
Uparo ni aonge gi joneko moromo momiyo ukelo ngʼatni e nyima? Ne ochuno ni nyaka ngʼatni bi e oda?”
