< 1 Samuel 18 >

1 After David finished speaking with Saul, Jonathan became great friends with David. He loved David as he loved himself.
Idi nalpas ti pannakisarsaritana kenni Saul, naisinggalot ti kararua ni Jonatan iti kararua ni David, ket impateg isuna ni Jonatan a kas iti panangipategna iti bagina.
2 From that time on Jonathan had David work for him and would not let him go back home.
Innala ni Saul ni David nga agserbi kenkuana iti dayta nga aldaw; saannan a pinalubosan isuna nga agsubli iti pagtaengan ti amana.
3 Jonathan made a solemn agreement with David because he loved him as he loved himself.
Ket nagtinnulag ni Jonatan ken ni David iti panaggayyemda gapu ta inayat ni Jonatan isuna a kas iti panagayatna iti bagina.
4 Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, together with his tunic, his sword, his bow, and his belt.
Inussob ni Jonatan ti kagay a suot-suotna ket intedna daytoy kenni David agraman ti kabalna, kasta met ti kampilan, bai, ken barikesna.
5 David was successful in doing everything Saul asked him to do, so Saul made him an officer in the army. This pleased everyone, including Saul's other officers.
Mapan ni David iti sadinoman a pangibaonan kenkuana ni Saul, ket nagballigi isuna. Dinutokan ni Saul isuna a pangulo dagiti lallaki a mannakigubat. Makaay-ayo daytoy iti imatang dagiti amin a tattao ken kasta met iti imatang dagiti adipen ni Saul.
6 When the soldiers returned home after David had killed the Philistine, the women of all the towns of Israel came out singing and dancing to meet King Saul, happily celebrating with tambourines and musical instruments.
Iti panagawidda kadagiti pagtaenganda manipud iti panangparmekda kadagiti Filisteo, immay dagiti babbai iti amin a siudad ti Israel, agkakanta ken agsasalada, a mangsabat kenni Ari Saul, babaen kadagiti pandereta, nga addaan iti rag-o, ken babaen iti pangtukar nga instrumento.
7 As they danced the women sang, “Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands.”
Nagkakanta dagiti babbai bayat nga agtuktukkarda; kinantada: “Pinatay ni Saul dagiti rinibribuna, Ket ni David dagiti sangapulo a ribuna.”
8 What they were singing made Saul very angry as he didn't think it was right. He said to himself, “They've given David credit for killing tens of thousands, but only thousands to me. All that's left is to give him the kingdom!”
Kasta unay ti unget ni Saul, ket nasakit ti nakemna iti daytoy a kanta. Kinunana, “Impabaklayda kenni David dagiti sangapulo a ribu, ngem impabaklayda laeng kaniak dagiti rinibribu. Ania pay ti magun-odna no di ti kinaari?”
9 From that time on Saul viewed David with suspicion.
Ket manipud iti dayta nga aldaw pinagatapan ni Saul ni David iti dakes.
10 The following day an evil spirit from God came on Saul with power, and he was ranting inside the house while David played the harp as he regularly did. Saul happened to be holding a spear,
Iti simmaruno nga aldaw, dagus nga immay kenni Saul ti dakes nga espiritu a binilin ti Dios. Ket nagmangaw-mangaw isuna iti uneg ti pagtaenganna. Isu a tinukar ni David ti instrumentona, a kas iti ar-aramidenna iti inaldaw. Igge-iggem ni Saul ti gayangna.
11 and he threw it at David, saying to himself, “I'll pin David to the wall.” But David managed to escape him twice.
Ingayang ni Saul ti gayangna, ta pinanunotna, “Ilansakto ni David iti pader.” Ngem nakalisi ni David iti sangoanan ni Saul iti namindua a daras iti kastoy a wagas.
12 Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with David, but he had given up on Saul.
Nagbuteng ni Saul kenni David, gapu ta adda ni Yahweh kenkuana, ngem awanen kenni Saul.
13 So Saul sent David away and made him a commander of a thousand soldiers, leading them out and back as part of the army.
Isu a pinapanaw isuna ni Saul iti sangoananna ket dinutokanna a pangulo ti sangaribu. Babaen iti daytoy a wagas, indauloan ni David iti gubat dagiti soldadona ken idauloanna met laeng ida nga agawid manipud iti paggugubatan.
14 David was very successful in everything he did, because the Lord was with him.
Kanayon nga agballigi ni David iti amin a pakigubatanna, ta adda ni Yahweh kenkuana.
15 When Saul saw how successful David was, he was even more afraid of him.
Idi nakita ni Saul a kanayon nga agballigi isuna, ad-adda a nagsiddaaw isuna kenkuana.
16 But everyone in Israel and Judah loved David, because of his leadership in the army.
Ngem inayat ti entero nga Israel ken Juda ni David, idauloanna iti gubat dagiti soldadona ken idauloanna met laeng ida nga agawid manipud iti paggugubatan.
17 One day Saul told David, “Here's my oldest daughter Merab. I will give her to you in marriage, but only if you prove to me you're a brave warrior and fight the battles of the Lord.” For Saul was thinking, “I don't need to be the one to kill him—let the Philistines do it!”
Ket kinuna ni Saul kenni David, “Adtoy ti inauna nga anakko a babai a ni Merab. Ipaasawak isuna kenka. Agbalinka laeng a natured para kaniak ken makirangetka kadagiti gubat ni Yahweh.” Ta pinanunot ni Saul, “Saan a ti imak ti mangdangran kenkuana, ngem ti ima dagiti Filisteo ti mangdangran kenkuana,”
18 “But who am I, and what status does my family have in Israel, for me to become the son-in-law of the king?” David replied.
Kinuna ni David kenni Saul, “Siasinoak koma, ken ania koma ti kabibiagko, wenno ti pamilia ti amak idiay Israel, tapno agbalinak a manugang ti ari?”
19 However, when the time came to give Merab, Saul's daughter, to David, she was given in marriage to Adriel of Meholah instead.
Ngem idi tiempo nga agbalin koman nga asawa ni David ni Merab nga anak a babai ni Saul, naipaasawa isuna kenni Adriel a taga-Mehola.
20 Meanwhile Saul's daughter Michal had fallen in love with David, and when Saul was told, he was happy about it.
Ngem ni Mical, nga anak a babai ni Saul, inayatna ni David. Imbagada daytoy kenni Saul, ket naay-ayo isuna iti daytoy.
21 “I'll give her to David,” Saul thought. “She can be the bait so the Philistines can trap him.” So Saul said to David, “This is the second time you can become my son-in-law.”
Ket pinanunot ni Saul, “Ipaasawak isuna kenkuana, tapno agbalin isuna a palab-og kenkuana, ket tapno bumusorto kenkuana dagiti Filisteo.” Isu a kinuna ni Saul kenni David iti maikadua a daras, “Agbalinkanto a manugangko.”
22 Saul gave these instructions to his servants, “Talk with David in private and tell him, ‘Look, the king is very happy with you, and all of us love you. Why not become the king's son-in-law?’”
Binilin ni Saul dagiti adipenna, “Katungtongenyo ni David iti nalimed, ket ibagayo, “Kitaem, naragsakan ti ari kenka, ken dagiti amin nga adipenna ket ipatpategdaka. Ita ngarud, agbalinkan a manugang ti ari.'”
23 Saul's servants spoke privately to David, but he replied, “Do you think it's nothing to become the king's son-in-law? I'm a poor man, and I'm not important.”
Imbaga ngarud dagiti adipen ni Saul dagitoy a sasao kenni David. Ket kinuna ni David, “Nalag-an kadi laeng a banag kadakayo ti agbalin a manugang ti ari, agsipud ta nakurapayak laeng a tao, ken nababaak laeng?”
24 When Saul's servants explained to him what David had said,
Impadamag dagiti adipen ni Saul kenkuana dagiti sasao nga imbaga ni David.
25 Saul told them, “Tell David, ‘The only dowry the king wants for the bride is one hundred foreskins of dead Philistine as a way of taking revenge on his enemies.’” Saul's plan was to have David be killed by the Philistines.
Ket kinuna ni Saul, “Kastoyto ti ibagayo kenni David, 'Saan a tartarigagayan ti ari ti aniaman a sab-ong, dagiti laeng sangagasut a kudil iti murdong ti mabagbagi dagiti Filisteo ti kasapulan tapno makabales ti ari kadagiti kabusorna.'” Ita, impagarup ni Saul a matnag ni David iti ima dagiti Filisteo.
26 When the servants reported what the king had said back to David, he was happy to become the king's son-in-law. While there was still time,
Idi imbaga dagiti adipenna dagitoy a sasao kenni David, naragsakan ni David nga agbalin a manugang ti ari.
27 David set off with his men and killed two hundred Philistines, and brought back their foreskins. They counted them all out before the king so that David could become the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him his daughter Michal in marriage.
Sakbay a nagleppas dagidiay nga al-aldaw, napan ni David a kaduana dagiti tattaona ket pinatayda dagiti dua gasut a Filisteo. Inyeg ni David dagiti kudil iti murdong ti mabagbagida, ket intedda amin dagitoy iti ari, tapno agbalin isuna a manugang ti ari. Impaasawa ngarud ni Saul ti anakna a ni Mical kenni David.
28 Saul realized that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal was in love with David,
Ket nakita ken naammoan ni Saul nga adda ni Yahweh kenni David. Inayat isuna ni Mical nga anak ni Saul.
29 and so he became even more afraid of David, and was David's enemy for the rest of his life.
Kimmarkaro ti buteng ni Saul kenni David. Nagtultuloy a kabusor ni Saul ni David.
30 Whenever the Philistine commanders attacked, David was more successful in battle than all of Saul's officers, so that his reputation grew rapidly.
Ket rimmuar ti armada dagiti Filisteo para iti gubat, ket kas iti kasansan nga iruruarda, ad-adda a ni David ti agbalballigi ngem kadagiti amin nga adipen ni Saul, isu nga ad-adda a napadayawan ti naganna.
