1 Samuel 22
1 Dauid therefore departed thence, and saued him selfe in the caue of Adullam: and when his brethren and all his fathers house heard it, they went downe thither to him.
Davide anachoka kumeneko nathawira ku phanga la Adulamu. Abale ake ndi banja lonse la abambo ake anamva izi, anapita kumene kunali Davide.
2 And there gathered vnto him all men that were in trouble and all men that were in dette, and all those that were vexed in minde, and he was their prince, and there were with him about foure hundreth men.
Ndipo aliyense amene anali pa mavuto, kapena ndi ngongole kapenanso amene anali wosakondwa anasonkhana kwa iye, ndipo iye anakhala mtsogoleri wawo. Onse pamodzi analipo amuna 400.
3 And Dauid went thence to Mizpeh in Moab, and said vnto the King of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother come and abide with you, till I knowe what God wil doe for me.
Kuchokera kumeneko Davide anapita ku Mizipa ku Mowabu ndipo anapempha mfumu ya Mowabu kuti, “Bwanji abambo ndi amayi anga akhale nanu mpaka ine nditadziwa chimene Mulungu adzachite nane?”
4 And he brought them before the King of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the while that Dauid was in the holde.
Choncho iye anawasiya kwa mfumu ya Mowabu ndipo anakhala naye nthawi yonse imene Davide ankabisala ku phanga kuja.
5 And the Prophet Gad sayde vnto Dauid, Abide not in the holde, but depart and goe into the land of Iudah. Then Dauid departed and came into the forest of Hareth.
Koma mneneri Gadi anawuza Davide kuti, “Usakhale ku phanga kuno. Pita ku dziko la Yuda.” Kotero Davide anachoka ndi kupita ku nkhalango ya Hereti.
6 And Saul heard that Dauid was discouered, and the men that were with him, and Saul remayned in Gibeah vnder a tree in Ramah, hauing his speare in his hande, and all his seruants stoode about him.
Tsono Sauli anamva kuti Davide ndi anthu ake apezeka. Nthawiyo nʼkuti Sauli atakhala pansi pa mtengo wa bwemba pa phiri la ku Gibeya, mkondo uli mʼdzanja lake ndi ankhondo ake atayima chomuzungulira.
7 And Saul said vnto his seruants that stood about him, Heare now, ye sonnes of Iemini, wil the sonne of Ishai giue euery one of you fields and vineyardes: will he make you all captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer hundreths:
Tsono Sauli anafunsa ankhondo ake aja kuti, “Tamverani inu anthu a fuko la Benjamini! Kodi mwana wa Yese adzakupatsani nonsenu minda ndi minda ya mpesa? Kodi nonsenu adzakuyikani kukhala atsogoleri a magulu ankhondo?
8 That all ye haue conspired against me, and there is none that tellerh mee that my sonne hath made a couenant with the sonne of Ishai? and there is none of you that is sory for me, or sheweth mee, that my sonne hath stirred vp my seruant to lie in wayte against me, as appeareth this day?
Mwinatu nʼchifukwa chake mwagwirizana zondichita chiwembu. Palibe amene anandiwuza pamene mwana wanga ankapanga pangano ndi mwana wa Yese. Palibe aliyense amene ankalabadirako za ine kapena kundiwuza kuti mwana wanga wautsa mtima wa wantchito wanga kuti andiwukire monga wachitira lero.”
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite (who was appoynted ouer the seruants of Saul) and sayd, I saw the sonne of Ishai when he came to Nob, to Ahimelech the sonne of Ahitub,
Koma Doegi Mwedomu anayima pafupi ndi nduna za Sauli nati, “Ine ndinaona mwana wa Yese atabwera kwa Ahimeleki mwana wa Ahitubi ku Nobi.
10 Who asked counsell of the Lord for him and gaue him vitailes, and he gaue him also the sword of Goliath the Philistim.
Ahimelekiyo anafunsa kwa Yehova chomwe Davide ayenera kuchita. Iye anamupatsa zakudya ndiponso lupanga la Goliati Mfilisiti uja.”
11 Then the King sent to call Ahimelech the Priest the sonne of Ahitub, and all his fathers house, to wit, the Priests that were in Nob: and they came all to the King.
Pamenepo mfumu inayitanitsa wansembe Ahimeleki mwana wa Ahitubi ndi banja lonse la abambo ake, amene anali ansembe ku Nobi. Ndipo onse anabwera kwa mfumu.
12 And Saul said, Heare now thou sonne of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.
Sauli anati, “Tsono tamvera, mwana wa Ahitubi.” Iye anayankha kuti, “Inde mbuye wanga.”
13 Then Saul sayde vnto him, Why haue yee conspired against me, thou and the sonne of Ishai, in that thou hast giuen him vitaile, and a sworde, and hast asked counsell of God for him, that he should rise against me, and lye in wayte as appeareth this day?
Sauli anamufunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani iwe ndi mwana wa Yese mwandiwukira ine? Wamupatsa buledi ndi lupanga. Wafunsiranso kwa Yehova zoti andiwukire ndi kundibisalira monga wachita leromu?”
14 And Ahimelech answered the King, and sayde, Who is so faithfull among all thy seruants as Dauid, being also the Kings sonne in lawe, and goeth at thy commandement, and is honourable in thine house?
Ahimeleki anayankha mfumu kuti, “Kodi ndani mwa ankhondo anu onse amene ali wokhulupirika monga Davide? Iye uja ndi mkamwini wa mfumu, kapitawo wa asilikali okutetezani ndiponso munthu amene amalemekezedwa mʼbanja lanu?
15 Haue I this day first begun to aske counsell of God for him? be it farre from mee, let not the King impute any thing vnto his seruant, nor to all the house of my father: for thy seruant knew nothing of all this, lesse nor more.
Kodi tsiku limeneli linali loyamba kuti ndimufunsire kwa Yehova? Ayi sichoncho! Mfumu musandinenere kanthu kalikonse koyipa kapena banja la abambo anga, pakuti sindikudziwa kanthu kena kalikonse ka zimenezi.”
16 Then the King sayd, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy fathers house.
Koma mfumu inati, “Iwe Ahimeleki ndi banja lonse la abambo ako mudzaphedwa ndithu.”
17 And the King sayde vnto the sergeantes that stoode about him, Turne, and slay the Priestes of the Lord, because their hand also is with Dauid, and because they knewe when he fled, and shewed it not vnto mee. But the seruantes of the King would not moue their hands to fall vpon the Priests of the Lord.
Kenaka mfumu inalamulira alonda amene anali naye kuti, “Iphani ansembe a Yehovawa chifukwa iwo akugwirizana ndi Davide. Iwo amadziwa kuti Davide ankathawa koma sanandiwuze.” Koma antchito a mfumu aja sanasamule dzanja kuti aphe ansembe a Yehova.
18 Then the King sayde to Doeg, Turne thou and fall vpon the Priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and ran vpon the Priestes, and slewe that same daye foure score and fiue persons that did weare a linen Ephod.
Kotero mfumu inalamula Doegi kuti, “Uwaphe ndiwe ansembewa.” Choncho Doegi Mwedomu anapita ndi kuwapha. Tsiku limenelo iye anapha amuna 85 amene amavala efodi wa nsalu yofewa.
19 Also Nob the citie of the Priestes smote he with the edge of the sword, both man and woman, both childe and suckling, both oxe and asse, and sheepe with the edge of the sword.
Kunena za Nobi, mzinda wa ansembe, Sauli anapha amuna ndi amayi, ana ndi makanda pamodzi ndi ngʼombe, abulu ndi nkhosa.
20 But one of the sonnes of Ahimelech the sonne of Ahitub (whose name was Abiathar) escaped and fled after Dauid.
Koma Abiatara mwana wa Ahimeleki mwana wa Ahitubi anapulumuka ndi kuthawira kwa Davide.
21 And Abiathar shewed Dauid, that Saul had slayne the Lords Priestes.
Abiatara anawuza Davide kuti Sauli wapha ansembe a Yehova.
22 And Dauid sayd vnto Abiathar, I knewe it the same day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would tell Saul. I am the cause of the death of all the persons of thy fathers house.
Ndipo Davide anati kwa Abiatara, “Tsiku lija pamene Doegi Mwedomu anali kumene kuja, ine ndimadziwa kuti salephera kukamuwuza Sauli. Ine ndi amene ndaphetsa banja lonse la abambo ako.
23 Abide thou with me, and feare not: for he that seeketh my life, shall seeke thy life also: for with me thou shalt be in safegard.
Iwe khala ndi ine, usaope munthu amene akufuna moyo wako komanso wanga. Udzatetezeka ukakhala ndi ine.”
