1 Samuel 19
1 Then Saul instructed his son Jonathan and all his officials to kill David. But Jonathan really liked David,
Saulu sọ fún Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé kí wọ́n pa Dafidi. Ṣùgbọ́n Jonatani fẹ́ràn Dafidi púpọ̀
2 so he warned him, “My father Saul is trying to kill you. So be careful tomorrow morning—find a place to hide and stay hidden.
Jonatani sì kìlọ̀ fún Dafidi pé, “Baba mi Saulu wá ọ̀nà láti pa ọ́, kíyèsi ara rẹ di òwúrọ̀ ọ̀la; lọ sí ibi ìkọ̀kọ̀, kí o sì sá pamọ́ sí ibẹ̀.
3 I'll go out with my father and stand in the field near to where you are hiding. I'll talk to him about you and see what I can find out, then I'll let you know.”
Èmi yóò jáde lọ láti dúró ní ọ̀dọ̀ baba mi ní orí pápá níbi tí ó wà. Èmi yóò sọ̀rọ̀ fún un nípa à rẹ, èmi yóò sì sọ ohun tí òun bá wí fún ọ.”
4 Then Jonathan spoke positively about David to his father Saul, and told him, “The king should not do anything bad to his servant David because he's not done anything bad to you—he has always served you well.
Jonatani sọ̀rọ̀ rere nípa Dafidi fún Saulu baba rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọba kí ó ṣe ohun tí kò dára fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀; nítorí tí kò ṣẹ̀ ọ́, ohun tí ó sì ṣe pé ọ púpọ̀.
5 He took his life in his hands when he killed the Philistine, and the Lord brought about great salvation for the whole of Israel. You saw it and you were delighted, so why would you sin and spill innocent blood by killing David without having any reason?”
Ó fi ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ wéwu nígbà tí ó pa Filistini. Olúwa ṣẹ́ ogun ńlá fún gbogbo Israẹli, ìwọ rí i inú rẹ dùn. Ǹjẹ́ nítorí kí ni ìwọ yóò ṣe dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí Dafidi aláìṣẹ̀, tí ìwọ yóò fi pa á láìnídìí?”
6 Saul accepted what Jonathan had to say, and promised with an oath: “I swear on the life of the Lord, he won't be put to death.”
Saulu fetísí Jonatani, ó sì búra báyìí, “Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Olúwa bá ti ń bẹ láààyè, a kì yóò pa Dafidi.”
7 Later Jonathan called David and told him all that had been said. Then he took him to Saul, and David worked for Saul as he had before.
Nítorí náà Jonatani pe Dafidi, ó sì sọ gbogbo àjọsọ wọn fún un. Ó sì mú un wá fún Saulu, Dafidi sì wà lọ́dọ̀ Saulu gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti tẹ́lẹ̀.
8 War broke out once again, and David went to fight the Philistines. He attacked them so forcefully that they ran away in defeat.
Lẹ́ẹ̀kan an sí i ogun tún wá, Dafidi sì jáde lọ, ó sì bá àwọn ara Filistini jà. Ó sì pa wọn pẹ̀lú agbára, wọ́n sì sálọ níwájú u rẹ̀.
9 A while later an evil spirit from the Lord came on Saul while he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand. As David played the lyre,
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá sí orí Saulu bí ó ti jókòó ní ilé e rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Bí Dafidi sì ti fọn ohun èlò orin olókùn,
10 Saul tried to pin David to the wall with the spear. David managed to dodge the spear which embedded itself in the wall. Then David escaped and ran away into the night.
Saulu sì wá ọ̀nà láti gún un mọ́ ògiri pẹ̀lú ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Dafidi yẹ̀ ẹ́ sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí Saulu ti ju ọ̀kọ̀ náà mọ́ ara ògiri. Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà Dafidi sì fi ara pamọ́ dáradára.
11 Saul sent some messengers to David's house to keep watch and kill him in the morning. But Michal, David's wife, warned him, “If you don't get away tonight, tomorrow you'll be killed.”
Saulu rán ènìyàn sí ilé Dafidi láti ṣọ́ ọ kí wọ́n sì pa á ní òwúrọ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n Mikali, ìyàwó Dafidi kìlọ̀ fún un pé, “Tí o kò bá sá fún ẹ̀mí rẹ ní alẹ́ yìí, ní ọ̀la ni a yóò pa ọ́.”
12 Michal lowered David down from a window, and he ran off, managing to escape.
Nígbà náà Mikali sì gbé Dafidi sọ̀kalẹ̀ ó sì fi aṣọ bò ó.
13 Then she took a home idol and laid it in the bed, put a goat hair wig on its head, and covered it with bedclothes.
Mikali gbé ère ó sì tẹ́ e lórí ibùsùn, ó sì fi irun ewúrẹ́ sí ibi orí rẹ̀.
14 When Saul sent the messengers to arrest David, Michal told them, “He's sick.”
Nígbà ti Saulu rán ènìyàn láti lọ fi agbára mú Dafidi, Mikali wí pé, “Ó rẹ̀ ẹ́.”
15 Saul sent the messengers back to see David, saying, “Bring him to me in the bed so I can kill him.”
Nígbà náà ni Saulu rán ọkùnrin náà padà láti lọ wo Dafidi ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Mú wa fún mi láti orí ibùsùn rẹ̀ kí èmi kí ó le pa á.”
16 But when the messengers went into the bedroom, there was the idol in the bed with the goat hair wig on its head.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà wọlé, ère ni ó bá lórí ibùsùn àti irun ewúrẹ́ ní orí ère náà.
17 “Why did you trick me like this—helping my enemy get away so he could escape?” Saul asked Michal. “He told me, ‘Get out of my way! I don't want to have to kill you!’” Michal replied.
Saulu wí fún Mikali pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi tàn mí báyìí tí o sì jẹ́ kí ọ̀tá mi sálọ tí ó sì bọ́?” Mikali sọ fún un pé, “Ó wí fún mi, ‘Jẹ́ kí èmi ó lọ. Èéṣe tí èmi yóò fi pa ọ́?’”
18 This is how David got away and escaped. He went to Samuel at Ramah and explained to him everything that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went to stay in Naioth.
Nígbà tí Dafidi ti sálọ tí ó sì ti bọ́, ó sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Samuẹli ní Rama ó sì sọ gbogbo ohun tí Saulu ti ṣe fún un. Òun àti Samuẹli lọ sí Naioti láti dúró níbẹ̀.
19 When Saul got to hear that David was at Naioth in Ramah,
Ọ̀rọ̀ sì tọ Saulu wá pé, “Dafidi wà ní Naioti ní Rama,”
20 he sent messengers to arrest him. But when they saw a group of prophets prophesying with Samuel leading out, the Spirit of God came on Saul's messengers and they started prophesying too.
Saulu sì rán àwọn ènìyàn láti fi agbára mú Dafidi wá ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n rí ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn wòlíì tí ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀, pẹ̀lú Samuẹli dúró níbẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí olórí, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run sì wá sórí àwọn arákùnrin Saulu àwọn náà sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
21 Saul was told what had happened, so he sent more messengers, and they started prophesying as well.
Wọ́n sì sọ fún Saulu nípa rẹ̀, ó sì rán ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn mìíràn lọ àwọn náà sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀. Saulu tún rán oníṣẹ́ lọ ní ìgbà kẹta, àwọn náà bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
22 For the third time Saul sent messengers, and they also started prophesying.
Nígbẹ̀yìn, òun fúnra rẹ̀ sì lọ sí Rama ó sì dé ibi àmù ńlá kan ní Seku. Ó sì béèrè, “Níbo ni Samuẹli àti Dafidi wà?” Wọ́n wí pé, “Wọ́n wà ní ìrékọjá ní Naioti ní Rama.”
23 In the end Saul went himself to Ramah and arrived at the large cistern at Secu. “Where are Samuel and David?” he asked. “At Naioth in Ramah,” someone told him. So Saul went on to Naioth at Ramah, but the Spirit of God even came on him, and he was prophesying as he walked along until he arrived in Naioth.
Saulu sì lọ sí Naioti ni Rama. Ṣùgbọ́n, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run bà lé e lórí ó sì ń lọ lọ́nà, ó sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ títí tí ó fi dé Naioti.
24 Then Saul also took off his clothes and he too prophesied in Samuel's presence. Then he fell down and lay there naked all that day and all that night. That's why it is said, “Is Saul one of the prophets too?”
Ó sì bọ́ aṣọ rẹ̀, òun pẹ̀lú sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ níwájú Samuẹli. Ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́ náà àti ní òru. Ìdí nìyìí tí àwọn ènìyàn fi wí pé, “Ṣé Saulu náà wà lára àwọn wòlíì ni?”
