1 Samuel 19
1 Then Saul spake to Ionathan his sonne, and to all his seruantes, that they shoulde kill Dauid: but Ionathan Sauls sonne had a great fauour to Dauid.
Na rĩrĩ, Saũlũ akĩĩra mũriũ Jonathani na ndungata ciake ciothe moorage Daudi. Nowe Jonathani nĩendeete Daudi mũno,
2 And Ionathan told Dauid, saying, Saul my father goeth about to slay thee: nowe therefore, I pray thee, take heede vnto thy selfe vnto the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thy selfe.
nake akĩmũkunyĩra ũhoro, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Baba Saũlũ nĩaracaria mweke wa gũkũũraga. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũkemenyerera rũciũ rũciinĩ; ũthiĩ wĩhithe handũ, na ũikare ho.
3 And I will go out, and stand by my father in the fielde where thou art, and will commune with my father of thee, and I will see what he sayth, and will tell thee.
Niĩ nĩngathiĩ ndũgame hamwe na baba kũu mũgũnda-inĩ, kũu ũgaakorwo ũrĩ. Nĩngaaria nake ũhoro ũgũkoniĩ na ũrĩa ngaamenya nĩngakwĩra.”
4 And Ionathan spake good of Dauid vnto Saul his father, and said vnto him, Let not the King sinne against his seruat, against Dauid: for he hath not sinned against thee, but his works haue bene to thee very good.
Jonathani akĩĩra ithe Saũlũ wega wa Daudi, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Reke mũthamaki aage gwĩka Daudi ndungata yake ũũru; ndakwĩhĩirie, na ũrĩa ekĩte ũkoretwo ũrĩ uumithio mũnene kũrĩ we.
5 For he did put his life in daunger, and slew the Philistim, and the Lord wrought a great saluation for al Israel: thou sawest it, and thou reioycedst: wherefore then wilt thou sinne against innocent blood, and slay Dauid without a cause?
Nĩetoonyirie ũgwati-inĩ rĩrĩa ooragire Mũfilisti. Nake Jehova akĩhe Isiraeli guothe ũhootani mũnene mũno, ũkĩĩonera ũndũ ũcio na ũgĩkena. Nĩ kĩĩ kĩngĩtũma wĩke mũndũ ũtarĩ na ihĩtia ta Daudi ũũru, ũmũũrage hatarĩ na gĩtũmi?”
6 Then Saul hearkened vnto the voyce of Ionathan, and Saul sware, As the Lord liueth, he shall not dye.
Saũlũ nĩathikĩrĩirie Jonathani na akĩĩhĩta akiuga ũũ: “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, Daudi ndekũũragwo.”
7 So Ionathan called Dauid, and Ionathan shewed him all those words, and Ionathan brought Dauid to Saul, and hee was in his presence as in times past.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jonathani agĩĩta Daudi akĩmwĩra ũhoro ũcio maaragia wothe. Akĩmũtwara kũrĩ Saũlũ, nake Daudi agĩikara na Saũlũ o ta mbere.
8 Againe the warre began, and Dauid went out and fought with the Philistims, and slew them with a great slaughter, and they fled from him.
Nĩ kwagĩire na mbaara rĩngĩ, na Daudi agĩthiĩ akĩrũa na Afilisti. Nake akĩmahũũra na hinya mũno nginya makĩmũũrĩra.
9 And the euill spirit of the Lord was vpon Saul, as hee sate in his house hauing his speare in his hand, and Dauid played with his hand.
No roho mũũru uumĩte kũrĩ Jehova ũgĩkora Saũlũ rĩrĩa aikarĩte gwake nyũmba arĩ na itimũ rĩake guoko-inĩ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi aahũũraga kĩnanda kĩa mũgeeto.
10 And Saul intended to smite Dauid to the wall with the speare: but hee turned aside out of Sauls presence, and he smote the speare against the wall: but Dauid fled, and escaped the same night.
Saũlũ akĩgeria kũmũthecereria rũthingo-inĩ na itimũ rĩake, no Daudi akĩmweherera o rĩrĩa aaikagia itimũ rũthingo-inĩ. Ũtukũ ũcio Daudi akĩũra.
11 Saul also sent messengers vnto Dauids house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal Dauids wife told it him, saying, If thou saue not thy selfe this night, to morowe thou shalt be slayne.
Saũlũ agĩtũma andũ kwa Daudi makaraangĩre nyũmba yake na mamũũrage gwakĩa. No Mikali, mũtumia wa Daudi, akĩmũkunyĩra ũhoro ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Waga kũũra ũtukũ wa ũmũthĩ, ũhonokie muoyo waku-rĩ, rũciũ nĩũkooragwo.”
12 So Michal let Dauid downe through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mikali agĩikũrũkĩria Daudi ndirica-inĩ, nake akĩĩyũrĩra, akĩhonoka.
13 Then Michal tooke an image, and layde it in the bed, and put a pillow stuffed with goates heare vnder the head of it, and couered it with a cloth.
Ningĩ Mikali akĩoya mũhianano na akĩũiga ũrĩrĩ igũrũ, akĩũhumbĩra na gĩtama na akĩwĩkĩra guoya wa mbũri mũtwe.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take Dauid, she sayd, He is sicke.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Saũlũ aatũmire andũ makanyiite Daudi, Mikali akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mũrũaru.”
15 And Saul sent the messengers againe to see Dauid, saying, Bring him to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
Ningĩ Saũlũ agĩtũma andũ acio macooke makarore Daudi, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũrehei kũrĩ niĩ arĩ o ũrĩrĩ wake, nĩguo ndĩmũũrage.”
16 And when the messengers were come in, behold, an image was in the bed, with a pillow of goates heare vnder the head of it.
No rĩrĩa andũ maatoonyire kuo, magĩkora no mũhianano warĩ ũrĩrĩ, na ũgekĩrwo guoya wa mbũri mũtwe.
17 And Saul said vnto Michal, Why hast thou mocked me so, and sent away mine enemie, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said vnto me, Let me go, or els I will kill thee.
Saũlũ akĩĩra Mikali atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũũheenie ũguo, na ũkarekereria thũ yakwa yũre, nĩgeetha ĩhonoke?” Mikali akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Aranjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Reke niĩ ndĩĩyũrĩre. Ngũgĩkũũraga nĩ ũndũ kĩ?’”
18 So Dauid fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him: and he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
Nake Daudi akĩũra, akĩhonoka, na agĩthiĩ gwĩ Samũeli kũu Rama, akĩmwĩra ũrĩa wothe Saũlũ aamwĩkĩte. Ningĩ Daudi na Samũeli magĩthiĩ Naiothu, magĩikara kuo.
19 But one tolde Saul, saying, Beholde, Dauid is at Naioth in Ramah.
Ũhoro ũgĩkinyĩra Saũlũ, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Daudi arĩ Naiothu, kũu Rama”;
20 And Saul sent messengers to take Dauid: and when they sawe a company of Prophets prophecying, and Samuel standing as appoynted ouer them, the Spirit of God fell vpon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophecied.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma andũ makamũnyiite. No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa moonire gĩkundi kĩa anabii gĩkĩratha mohoro, matongoretio nĩ Samũeli arũgamĩte hau, Roho wa Ngai agĩkora andũ a Saũlũ, o nao makĩratha mohoro.
21 And when it was tolde Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophecied likewise: againe Saul sent the third messengers, and they prophecied also.
Saũlũ akĩheo ũhoro ũcio, nake agĩtũma andũ angĩ, nao makĩratha mohoro. Saũlũ agĩtũma andũ riita rĩa gatatũ, o nao makĩratha mohoro.
22 Then went he himselfe to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu, and he asked, and sayd, Where are Samuel and Dauid? and one sayd, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
Thuutha wa maũndũ mothe, o nake we mwene agĩthiĩ Rama na agĩkinya irima-inĩ rĩa maaĩ rĩrĩa inene kũu Seku. Nake akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Samũeli na Daudi marĩ ha?” Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Marĩ Naiothu, kũu Rama.”
23 And he went thither, euen to Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God came vpon him also, and he went prophecying vntill hee came to Naioth in Ramah.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ agĩthiĩ Naiothu, kũu Rama. No Roho wa Ngai ũkĩmũkora, agĩthiĩ akĩrathaga mohoro nginya agĩkinya Naiothu.
24 And he stript off his clothes, and he prophesied also before Samuel, and fell downe naked all that day and all that night: therefore they say, Is Saul also among the Prophets?
Akĩaũra nguo ciake cia igũrũ, o na ningĩ akĩratha mohoro arĩ mbere ya Samũeli. Agĩkoma ũguo mũthenya ũcio wothe, o na ũtukũ. Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩtũmaga andũ moorie atĩrĩ, “Saũlũ nake no ũmwe wa anabii?”
