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.
Na rĩrĩ, Daudi akiuma Gathu na akĩũrĩra ngurunga-inĩ ya Adulamu. Rĩrĩa ariũ a ithe na andũ a nyũmba ya ithe maiguire ũguo-rĩ, magĩikũrũka kũrĩ we.
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.
Arĩa othe maarĩ na mĩnyamaro, kana thiirĩ kana makaaga kũiganĩra makĩũngana harĩ we, nake agĩtuĩka mũtongoria wao. Aarĩ na andũ ta magana mana.
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.
Kuuma kũu, Daudi agĩthiĩ Mizipa kũu Moabi, akĩũria mũthamaki wa Moabi atĩrĩ, “Nĩũgwĩtĩkĩria baba na maitũ moke maikare nawe nginya rĩrĩa ngaamenya ũrĩa Ngai ekũnjĩkĩra?”
4 And he brought them before the King of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the while that Dauid was in the holde.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmatigĩra mũthamaki wa Moabi, nao magĩikara nake ihinda rĩothe rĩrĩa Daudi arĩ kĩĩhitho-inĩ.
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.
No mũnabii Gadi akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Tiga gũikara kĩĩhitho-inĩ. Thiĩ bũrũri wa Juda.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akiuma kũu agĩthiĩ mũtitũ wa Herethu.
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.
Na rĩrĩ, Saũlũ akĩigua atĩ Daudi na andũ ake nĩmonetwo. Nake Saũlũ aikarĩte thĩ gĩtina-inĩ kĩa mũtĩ wa mũbinde Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Gibea anyiitĩte itimũ rĩake na guoko, nao anene ake othe marũgamĩte mamũthiũrũrũkĩirie.
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:
Nake Saũlũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ta thikĩrĩriai, andũ a Benjamini! Anga mũrũ wa Jesii nĩakamũhe mĩgũnda ya irio na ya mĩthabibũ inyuothe? Anga nĩakamũtua anene a ita a kũrũgamĩrĩra andũ ngiri, na a kũrũgamĩrĩra andũ magana?
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?
Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩtũmĩte inyuothe mũciire kũnjũkĩrĩra? Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũngĩnjĩĩra rĩrĩa mũrũ wakwa egũthondeka kĩrĩkanĩro na mũrũ wa Jesii. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wanyu wĩciirĩtie ũhoro wakwa kana akanjĩĩra atĩ mũrũ wakwa nĩaikĩrĩirie ndungata yakwa ĩikare ĩnjoheirie, ta ũrĩa ĩreeka ũmũthĩ.”
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,
No Doegu ũrĩa Mũedomu, ũrĩa warũgamĩte hamwe na anene a Saũlũ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndonire mũrũ wa Jesii okĩte kũrĩ Ahimeleku mũrũ wa Ahitubu kũu Nobu.
10 Who asked counsell of the Lord for him and gaue him vitailes, and he gaue him also the sword of Goliath the Philistim.
Ahimeleku nĩamũtuĩrĩirie ũhoro harĩ Jehova; agĩcooka akĩmũhe irio, na rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Goliathũ ũrĩa Mũfilisti.”
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.
Ningĩ mũthamaki agĩtũmanĩra mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai Ahimeleku mũrũ wa Ahitubu, na nyũmba ya ithe yothe, arĩa maarĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai kũu Nobu, nao othe magĩũka kũrĩ mũthamaki.
12 And Saul said, Heare now thou sonne of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.
Saũlũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta thikĩrĩria rĩu, mũrũ wa Ahitubu.” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, mwathi wakwa.”
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?
Saũlũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mũciirĩre kũnjũkĩrĩra, wee na mũrũ wa Jesii, nawe ũkamũhe mĩgate, o na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ũkamũtuĩrĩria ũhoro harĩ Jehova, nĩgeetha aanemere na aikare anjoheirie, ta ũrĩa ekĩte ũmũthĩ?”
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?
Ahimeleku agĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Nũũ thĩinĩ wa ndungata ciaku ciothe mwathĩki ta Daudi, mũthoni-we wa mũthamaki, mũrori wa arangĩri aku, na nĩatĩĩkĩte mũno thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yaku?
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.
Mũthenya ũcio nĩguo warĩ wa mbere wa kũmũtuĩrĩria ũhoro harĩ Jehova? Aca tiguo! Reke mũthamaki ndageciirĩrie ndungata yaku kana mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa nyũmba ya ithe, nĩgũkorwo ndungata yaku ndĩrĩ ũndũ o na ũmwe yũĩ wa maũndũ maya mothe.”
16 Then the King sayd, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy fathers house.
No mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ, wee Ahimeleku nĩũgũkua, wee na andũ othe a nyũmba ya thoguo.”
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.
Ningĩ mũthamaki agĩatha thigari iria ciamũrũgamĩrĩire, agĩciĩra atĩrĩ: “Hũgũkaai mũũrage athĩnjĩri-Ngai a Jehova nĩ ũndũ o nao nĩmanyiitanĩire na Daudi. Nĩmamenyire nĩ kũũra ooraga, na matiigana kũnjĩĩra.” No anene a mũthamaki makĩrega gũtambũrũkia guoko moorage athĩnjĩri-Ngai a Jehova.
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.
Mũthamaki agĩcooka agĩatha Doegu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hũgũka ũũrage athĩnjĩri-Ngai.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Doegu ũcio Mũedomu akĩhũgũka akĩmooraga. Mũthenya ũcio akĩũraga andũ mĩrongo ĩnana na atano arĩa meehumbĩte ebodi ya gatani.
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.
Agĩcooka akĩhũũra Nobu, itũũra rĩu rĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na rũhiũ rwa njora, akĩũraga arũme na andũ-a-nja, ciana ciarĩo o na ngenge, na ngʼombe ciarĩo, na ndigiri o na ngʼondu.
20 But one of the sonnes of Ahimelech the sonne of Ahitub (whose name was Abiathar) escaped and fled after Dauid.
No Abiatharu, mũrũ ũmwe wa Ahimeleku mũrũ wa Ahitubu, akĩhonoka, akĩũra, na akĩrũmĩrĩra Daudi.
21 And Abiathar shewed Dauid, that Saul had slayne the Lords Priestes.
Akĩĩra Daudi atĩ Saũlũ nĩoragĩte athĩnjĩri-Ngai a Jehova.
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.
Nake Daudi akĩĩra Abiatharu atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya ũcio, rĩrĩa Doegu ũcio Mũedomu aarĩ kuo-rĩ, nĩndamenyire atĩ no nginya ere Saũlũ. Nĩ niĩ ndehithĩirie nyũmba yothe ya thoguo gĩkuũ.
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.
Ikara hamwe na niĩ; ndũgetigĩre; mũndũ ũrĩa ũracaria muoyo waku, o na wakwa o naguo nĩaraũcaria. Ũrĩ hamwe na niĩ ũrĩ mũmenyerere.”
