1 Samuel 25

1 Samuel died. Everyone in Israel gathered to mourn for him, and they buried him at his home in Ramah. David left and went to the Desert of Paran.

Hagi Samueli'a frige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za eme atru hu'za zavi krafa nehu'za Rama kumate norava'oma'are asente'naze. Anante Deviti'a Paran Maoni hagege ka'ma kokantega urami'ne. Hagi Soli'a antahiama Deviti'ma Paran Maoni umani'ne hazageno'a anantega avaririno urami'ne.

2 A man from Maon was very wealthy. He had property in Carmel and owned one thousand goats and three thousand sheep. He was in Carmel shearing them.

Hagi Maoni kaziga Kameli kumatera tusi'a feno ante'nea nera magora mani'neankino, ana ne'mo'a 3 tauseni'a sipisipi afu anteno, 1tauseni'a meme afu ante'ne. Hagi mago zupa sipisipi afu'amofo azoka nehareno mani'ne.

3 The man's name was Nabal, and his wife's name was Abigail. She was a wise and beautiful woman, but her husband was cruel and treated people badly. He was a descendant of Caleb.

Hagi ana ne'mofo agi'a Nebali'e. Hagi nenaro agi'a Abigelikino, agra hentofa a'kino knare antahi'zane a' mani'ne. Hianagi Nebali'a Kalepi nagapinti ne'kino, havi avu'ava ene' ne' mani'ne.

4 David was in the wilderness, and he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep.

Hagi Deviti'ma hagege kokampima mani'neno antahiama, Nebali'ma sipisipi afu'amofo azoka nehare kema nentahino'a,

5 So David sent ten of his young men and told them, “Go and see Nabal at Carmel. Greet him in my name, and say hello from me.

10ni'a nehazave huzamanteno anage hu'ne, Kameli kumate vuta, nagri nagifi knare kne huta Nebalina ome humuse hunenteta,

6 Tell him, ‘I wish you a long life! Peace to you and your family, and may everything you do prosper.

anage huta asamiho, Kagra knare hunka za'za kna nemaninka, kagrane nagakane maka zanka'anena tamarimpa frune maniho,

7 Now I've heard that you are busy shearing. When your shepherds were with us, we didn't mistreat them, and nothing belonging to them was stolen all the time they were in Carmel.

Hagi menina antahuana sipisipi azoka neharana kna me'ne hu'za nasami'naze. Hagi sipisipi afukama kegavama nehaza vahe'mo'zama Kemoli kumate'ma tagranema emani'naza knafina, zamazeri havizana nosuta, mago'a zazmia kumazafa ose'none.

8 Check with your men and they'll confirm it. Please be kind to my men, especially since we've come on this day of celebration. Please give whatever food you can to us and to your good friend David.’”

Hagi anankea eri'za vaheka'a zamasamisanke'za, tamage hu'za kasamigahaze. Hagi antahiraminka so'e kavukva huranto. Na'ankure menina ne'za kreno neneno muse hukna me'ne. Hagi muse hugantonanki, ne'zama ante'nesaza zana Deviti'a mofavreka'agna higeta tagra eri'za vaheka'a mani'nonanki aza hunka ne'zana menina tamio huta asmiho.

9 David's young men arrived, gave Nabal this message from David, and waited for his reply.

Hagi ana nehazavemo'za Nebalinte'ma unehanati'za Deviti'ma zamasami'nea nanekea agri agi eri'za ome asamite'za, kenonama huzaminigu avega ante'za mani'naze.

10 “Who does this ‘David, son of Jesse’ think he is?” Nabal replied. “Nowadays there are many servants on the run from their masters!

Hianagi Nebali'a ana kemofo nona'a amanage hu'ne, Jesi ne'mofo Deviti'ema nehazana izanku nehaze. Nagra ke'na antahi'na osu'noe? Meni ama knafina hakare'a eri'za vahe'mo'za kva'zimia atre'za nefraza knagino, agra mago kazokzo eri'za vahe mani'negahie.

11 Why should I take the bread and water I've supplied, and the meat I've slaughtered for my shearers, and hand it over to these strangers? I don't even know where they're from!”

Na'ante antahi'na ke'na osu'nesoa vahera, bretiniane, tini'ane, afu'niane sipisipi azoka'ma haresaza vahe'ma zaminaku'ma hanua ne'zana tamigahue? Tamagra igati e'naze nagra kena antahina osu'noanki'na ontamigahue.

12 So David's men turned around and went back the way they came. When they got back they told David everything Nabal had said.

Hagi Devitima huzmantege'za e'naza nehazavemo'za ete rekrahe hu'za vu'za ana miko kema Nebali'ma hiankea Devitina ome asami'naze.

13 “Everyone, put on your swords!” David ordered. They all put on their swords, and David did too. About four hundred followed David, while two hundred remained behind to guard their gear.

Hagi Deviti'a sondia vahe'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Bainati kazinknontamia tamavate eriho hige'za eri'zageno, agranena ana huno bainati kazinknoma'a e'nerino, 400'a sondia vahera zamavareno nevuno, 200'a sondia vahera huzmantege'za fenozamire kegava hu'naze.

14 In the meantime one of Nabal's men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, “David sent some messengers from the wilderness to bring greetings to our master, but he only insulted them.

Hianagi mago kato ne'mo Nebali nenaro Abigelina ome asamino anage hu'ne, Deviti'a ka'ma kokampi mani'neno, kvatimofona kea atrenteana ana kea huhaviza nehuno, ke'a antahi omi'ne.

15 David's men were always very good to us and they never mistreated us. All the time we were out in the fields with them nothing was stolen from us.

Hagi ana vahe'mo'za anantegama umanuna kna'afina knare zamavuzmava hurante'za, tazeri havizana osu'za, mago zantia kumazafa ose'za kegava hurante'naze.

16 They were like a protective wall to us, both day and night, during the whole time we were with them looking after the sheep.

Hagi anantegama umanuna knafina hanine zagenena ana vahe'mo'za vihugna hu'za manigagine'za kegava hunerantageta sipisipia kegava hu'none.

17 You should know what happened and consider what you should do about it. Disaster is about to strike our master and his whole family, but he's so obnoxious no one can talk sense into him!”

Hagi ama anankea nentahinka, nazano huzmantenaku'ma hanana zana huzamanto. Na'ankure kvatimofone noma'afima nemaniza vahera Deviti'a eme zamazeri haviza hu'naku kea retro nehie. Nebalia knare nera omani'neankino, mago vahe'mofo kea ontahigahie.

18 Abigail quickly gathered together two hundred loaves of bread, two skins of wine, five sheep already slaughtered, five seahs of roasted grain, a hundred raisin cakes, and two hundred fig cakes, and then loaded everything on donkeys.

Hagi Abigeli'a ana nanekema nentahino'a, ame huno 200'a bretigi, meme akrute tro hu'naza tafentrempi wainia tagino e'nerino, 5fu'a krente'naza sipisipi afuki, 20 kilo kre hagege hunte witigi, 100'a waini araga antehagege hu'za regripe ante'nazanki, 200'a fiki araga regripe ante'nazana donki afutamimofo agumpi erinte'ne.

19 She told her men, “Go on ahead. I'll follow you.” But she didn't say anything to her husband Nabal.

Hagi Abigeli'a eri'za vahe'a anage huno zamasmi'ne, Ko vugota hinke'na tamage tamavaririna va'neno. Hianagi ana'ma hiazana nevena Nebalina osami'ne.

20 As Abigail was riding her donkey through a mountain valley, she saw David and his men descending towards her, and she met them.

Hagi ana a'mo'a donki afu'afi manino ana agonamofo krahopi nevigeno, Deviti'ene sondia vahe'anena anantega eramigeno, ana a'mo'a ome tutagiha huzmante'ne.

21 David had just been complaining, “So much for my protecting everything that belonged to this man in the wilderness! Nothing at all was stolen from him, and yet what does he do? Pay me back evil for good!

Hagi Deviti'a anage hu'ne, Maka'zama ama ana ne'mo'ma ka'ma kopima ante'neana tamage hu'na kegava hugeno mago'zana kumazufa osege, fanenea osuge hu'ne. Hagi knare navu'nava'ma hunte'norera nona huno haviza hunante'ne.

22 May God punish me very severely if I leave even a single one of his men alive by morning!”

E'ina hu'negu ana ne'mofo nagara kenageke zamahe fri hana hugahue. Hagi ana'ma osu'na atrenugeno anampinti mago vahe'mo'ma amnema mani'nesigeno nanterama uhanatina, Anumzamo'a nahe frigahie.

23 When Abigail saw David, she quickly got off the donkey, and bowed before him, her face to the ground.

Hagi Abigeli'ma Devitima negeno'a ame huno donki afu'afinti eramia zamo, Devitina agafi kepri hu'ne.

24 Falling at his feet in respect, she said, “Sir, I accept full responsibility for what's happened. Please listen to what I, your servant, have to say.

Hagi ana a'mo'a agafi kepri huneno Devitina asamino, Mago vahera knazana ozaminka, ranimoka nagripi ana miko knazana anto. Hagi muse hugantoanki nagra eri'za vahekamo'nama hanua kea antahio.

25 Please don't concern yourself with this worthless man Nabal. His name means ‘fool,’ and he is really foolish! As for me, your servant, I didn't even see the men you sent.

Devitiga ranimoka Nebali'a kefo avu'ava'ene ne' mani'neanki ke'a antahiminka mago'zana huonto. Agra'a agimo'ma hu'neaza huno negi vahe mani'ne. Hianagi nehazavema huzmantanke'za vu'nazana zamage'na antahina osu'noe.

26 Now, sir, as the Lord lives and as you live, the Lord has kept you from shedding blood and from taking your own revenge. Sir, may your enemies and those who want to do you harm be like Nabal.

E'ina hu'negu menina ranimoka tamage huno Ra Anumzamo'a mani'neankino, kataregenka kagra kazanutira vahera zamahe frinka kumira osane. Ana hu'negu kagri'ma ha'ma regantesaza vahera zamatrege'za Nebali'ma hiaza hu'za neginagi hiho.

27 Please accept this present that I, your servant, have brought to you, sir, and give it to your men.

Hagi menima eri'za vahekamo'na eri'na e'noa ne'zana erinka, vaheka'a zamige'za neho.

28 Please forgive any offense that I, your servant, have committed, for the Lord is sure to set up a dynasty for you that will last for a long time, because you, sir, fight the battles of the Lord. Wickedness should not be found in you as long as you live.

Hagi nagrama hua navu'navamo'ma kazeri havizama hanigenka, kumi'ni'a atrenanto. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kinima mani trara kagri nagapi antesigeta kinia manivava huta vugahaze. Na'ankure kagra Ra Anumzamofo ha' nehunka, maninkama ampina, mago havizana osu'nane.

29 If anyone pursues you and tries to kill you, then your life will remain bound up with those the Lord your God looks after, safe in his care. But he will throw away the lives of your enemies like stones from a sling.

Hagi ha' vahekamo'zama kahe friku'ma nehageno'a, Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamo'a knare huno kva hunegante. Hianagi Anumzamo'a ha' vaheka'a kumi atifi have erinteno ahetreankna huno zamahenati atresige'za ame hu'za fanane hugahaze.

30 So when the Lord has done for you, sir, everything good he promised, and has made you ruler over Israel,

Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a kagrima ranimoka huvempagema hugante'neazama huvamaretesuno'a, Israeli vahete kva kazeri otisanigenka kva manisanunka,

31 you won't have feelings of remorse or a guilty conscience over unnecessary bloodshed or of taking your own revenge. And when the Lord has done these good things for you, sir, please remember me, your maidservant.”

ama anazamo'a kazeri haviza hugahianki, ranimoka kagra kazampintira nona hunka vahera zamahenka kagra kagia eri havizana osuo. Hanki Ra Anumzamo'ma ana mika'ma huvempage hugante'nea zama hugantesigenka, nagrira kagesa antahinamio.

32 Then David said to Abigail, “Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who sent you to meet me today!

Hagi Deviti'a amanage huno Abigelina asmi'ne, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a ra agi erisie! Menina Agra'a hugantegenka nagrira nagekura e'nane.

33 May you be rewarded for your wise decisions, for preventing me from shedding blood today and taking my own revenge.

Hagi kagri'enena muse hugantoe, kagri so'e antahi'zamo naza huno knare antahi'zana namige'na, nona hu'na kezmi omane vahera ozamahegahue.

34 On the contrary, as the Lord, the God of Israel, lives, who has kept me from harming you, if you hadn't rushed to meet me, then definitely not a single one of Nabal's men would have been left alive by dawn.”

Hagi menina nagritega amera hunka omantesina, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofonte ko huvempage hu'noanki'na, oki nanterana Nebali'ene veneneraminena magore hu'na ozamatrosine.

35 David accepted from Abigail what she had brought him, and told her, “You may go home in peace, because I agree with your advice and grant your request.”

Anante Deviti'a, Abigeli'ma erino vu'nea ne'zana e'nerino amanage hu'ne, Keagama nasami'nana hago antahoanki, kagrama nasamina kante ante'na anazana hugahuanki, krimpa fru e'nerinka nontega vuo.

36 When Abigail got back home to Nabal, he was in the house, partying like a king. He was feeling very merry, and he was very drunk. So she didn't tell him anything until the morning.

Higeno Abigeli'a anama huteno nontegama vuno ome keana, Nebali'a kini vahe'mo'za nehazaza huno tusi'a ne'za kreno neneno musenkase nehigeno ome ke'ne. Abigeli'a ana zamofo nanekea magore huno osami'ne. Na'ankure ana keragera Nebali'a tusi'a negi ti neno musenkase nehigeno nanterase'ne.

37 When Nabal had sobered up the next morning, his wife told him what had happened. When he heard what she had to say he had a heart attack and was paralyzed.

Hagi nanterama segeno Nebali antahintahimo'ma ama'ma higeno, ana nanekea Abigeli'a asami'ne. Hagi anankema Nebali'ma nentahino'a tusi agesa nentahigeno, agazamo'a hapu higeno kaza osu havegna huno mase'ne.

38 About ten days later the Lord struck Nabal down and he died.

Hagi 10ni'a zagegna naza evutegeno, anante Ra Anumzamo'a Nebalina ahegeno fri'ne.

39 When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Praise the Lord who has supported me against Nabal's insult and has kept me from doing evil. For the Lord made Nabal's wickedness fall back on himself.” Then David sent a message to Abigail, asking for her to marry him.

Hagi Nebali'ma fri'nea nanekema Deviti'a nentahino amanage hu'ne, Nagra Ra Anumzamofo agi'a hentesga hanue, Nebali'ma nagri'ma nazeri haviza hu'nemofo nona hunte. Hagi eri'za vahe'amo'ma vahe'ma ahe frizanku Ra Anumzamo'a Agra'a ahe frie. Anage nehuno Deviti'a Abigelina ke atrenteno, a' erigantegahue hu'ne.

40 When David's men arrived at Carmel, they said to Abigail, “David has sent us to you to bring you back to become his wife.”

Hagi Deviti eri'za vahe'mo'za Kameli kumate urami'za Abigelina ome asami'za, Deviti'a ome avreta enkena a' erintaneno huno hurantegeta e'none.

41 She stood up, then bowed down low, and said, “I am David's maidservant. I am prepared to serve and to wash the feet of my master's servants.”

Abigeli'a mopafi kepri nehuno amanage hu'ne, Nagra Deviti' eri'za vahe mani'ne'na eri'za vahe'amofo zamagia sese hu'zankura nave'nesie.

42 Abigail quickly got on a donkey and, with her five female servants, went back with David's men and became his wife.

Anage nehuno Abigeli'a ame huno agra donki'amofo agumpi marerige'za 5fu'a eri'za a'ne'amo'za avega hazageno, Deviti eri'za vahe'ene vazageno, Deviti'a a' avrente'ne.

43 David had also married Ahinoam of Jezreel. So they both were his wives.

Hagi Deviti'a Jezriri kumateti a' Ahinoamu ara erinte'nere, Abigeli'ma egeno'a ana taregamokea Deviti atre mani'na'e.

44 However, Saul had given his daughter Michal, David's wife, to Paltiel, son of Laish. He was from Gallim.

Hianagi anama hianknafina Soli'a mofa'a Mikelina Deviti nenaro mani'neanagi, Gilim kumate ne' Lais nemofo Paltieli hanare ami'ne.
