< 1 Samuel 30 >

1 Bvt when Dauid and his men were come to Ziklag the thirde day, the Amalekites had inuaded vpon the South, euen vnto Ziklag, and had smitten Ziklag, and burnt it with fire,
Na rĩrĩ, Daudi na andũ ake maakinyire Zikilagi mũthenya wa gatatũ. Nao Amaleki magĩkorwo nĩ matharĩkĩire Negevu na Zikilagi. Nĩmahũrĩte Zikilagi na makarĩcina,
2 And had taken the women that were therein, prisoners, both small and great, and slewe not a man, but caryed them away, and went their wayes.
na nĩmatahĩte andũ-a-nja arĩa othe maarĩ kuo, andũ ethĩ o na arĩa akũrũ. Matiigana kũũraga mũndũ o na ũmwe, no nĩmamakuuire magĩthiĩ nao.
3 So Dauid and his men came to the city, and beholde, it was burnt with fire, and their wiues, and their sonnes, and their daughters were taken prisoners.
Rĩrĩa Daudi na andũ ake mookire Zikilagi, maakorire rĩcinĩtwo na mwaki, na atumia ao na ariũ ao na airĩtu ao magatahwo.
4 Then Dauid and the people that was with him, lift vp their voyces and wept, vntill they could weepe no more.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi na andũ ake makĩrĩra maanĩrĩire nginya makĩaga hinya wa kũrĩra rĩngĩ.
5 Dauids two wiues were taken prisoners also, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Atumia a Daudi eerĩ nĩmatahĩtwo, Ahinoamu wa Jezireeli, na Abigaili ũrĩa warĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa wa Nabali kuuma Karimeli.
6 And Dauid was in great sorowe: for the people entended to stone him, because the heartes of all the people were vexed euery man for his sonnes and for his daughters: but Dauid comforted him selfe in the Lord his God.
Daudi akĩnyariirĩka mũno nĩ ũndũ andũ nĩmaciirĩire kũmũhũũra na mahiga; o mũndũ arĩ na marũrũ ngoro nĩ ũndũ wa aanake na airĩtu ake. No Daudi akĩgĩa na hinya thĩinĩ wa Jehova Ngai wake.
7 And Dauid saide to Abiathar the Priest Ahimelechs sonne, I pray thee, bring me the Ephod. And Abiathar brought the Ephod to Dauid.
Daudi agĩcooka akĩĩra Abiatharu, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, mũrũ wa Ahimeleku atĩrĩ, “Ndeehera ebodi.” Nake Abiatharu akĩmũrehera ebodi,
8 Then Dauid asked counsell at the Lord, saying, Shall I follow after this companie? shall I ouertake them? And he answered him, Followe: for thou shalt surely ouertake them, and recouer all.
nake Daudi agĩtuĩria ũhoro kũrĩ Jehova, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nyingatithie mbũtũ ĩyo ĩtũtharĩkĩire? Nĩngũmĩkinyĩra?” Akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mĩrũmĩrĩre, hatarĩ nganja nĩũkũmĩkinyĩra na nĩũkũhota gũcookia kĩrĩa gĩtahe.”
9 So Dauid and the sixe hundreth men that were with him, went, and came to the riuer Besor, where a part of them abode:
Daudi na andũ magana matandatũ arĩa maarĩ hamwe nake magĩkinya Mũkuru wa Besori, harĩa amwe ao maatigirwo thuutha,
10 But Dauid and foure hundreth men followed (for two hundreth abode behinde, being too wearie to goe ouer the riuer Besor)
nĩgũkorwo andũ ta magana meerĩ maarĩ anogu mũno, makĩremwo nĩ kũringa mũkuru ũcio. No Daudi na andũ magana mana magĩthiĩ na mbere kũmarũmĩrĩra.
11 And they found an Egyptian in the fielde, and brought him to Dauid, and gaue him bread and he did eat, and they gaue him water to drinke.
Nao magĩkorerera Mũmisiri werũ-inĩ, makĩmũtwara kũrĩ Daudi. Makĩmũhe maaĩ ma kũnyua na irio cia kũrĩa,
12 Also they gaue him a fewe figges, and two clusters of raisins: and when he had eaten, his spirite came againe to him: for he had eaten no bread, nor drunke any water in three dayes, and three nightes.
na kĩenyũ kĩa ngũyũ hihe na imanjĩka igĩrĩ cia thabibũ nyũmithie. Akĩrĩa agĩcookwo nĩ hinya, nĩ ũndũ ndaarĩte irio kana akanyua maaĩ handũ ha mĩthenya ĩtatũ, ũtukũ na mũthenya.
13 And Dauid saide vnto him, To whome belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he saide, I am a yong man of Egypt, and seruant to an Amalekite: and my master left me three dayes agoe, because I fell sicke.
Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “We ũrĩ wa ũ na uumĩte kũ?” Agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ Mũmisiri, ngombo ya mũndũ Mũamaleki. Mwathi wakwa aandiganĩirie ndarũara, mĩthenya ĩtatũ ĩthirĩte.
14 We roued vpon the South of Chereth, and vpon the coast belonging to Iudah, and vpon the South of Caleb, and we burnt Ziklag with fire.
Nĩtwatharĩkĩire Negevu ya Akerethi, na rũgongo rwa bũrũri wa Juda, na Negevu ya Kalebu, na tũgĩcina Zikilagi.”
15 And Dauid saide vnto him, Canst thou bring me to this companie? And he said, Sweare vnto me by God, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliuer me into the handes of my master, and I will bring thee to this companie.
Daudi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wahota kũndongoria ũnjikũrũkie kũrĩ mbũtũ ĩyo ĩraatharĩkĩire?” Mũndũ ũcio agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Wĩhĩte na mwĩhĩtwa mbere ya Ngai atĩ ndũkũnjũraga, kana ũneane kũrĩ mwathi wakwa, na nĩngũgũtwara, tũikũrũke tũthiĩ kũrĩa marĩ.”
16 And when he had brought him thither, beholde, they lay scattered abroade vpon all the earth, eating and drinking, and dauncing, because of all the great pray that they had taken out of the lande of the Philistims, and out of the land of Iudah.
Agĩtongoria Daudi, magĩikũrũka, nao makĩmakora kũu, maharaganĩte bũrũri-inĩ ũcio, makĩrĩa na makĩnyua, magĩĩkenagia nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa maatahĩte indo nyingĩ kuuma bũrũri wa Afilisti, na kuuma Juda.
17 And Dauid smote them from the twilight, euen vnto the euening of the next morowe, so that there escaped not a man of them, saue foure hundreth yong men, which rode vpon camels, and fled.
Daudi akĩmahũũra kuuma hwaĩ-inĩ kũrĩ mairia nginya hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, na gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe worire, tiga o aanake magana mana arĩa maahaicire ngamĩĩra ciao makĩũra.
18 And Dauid recouered all that the Amalekites had taken: also Dauid rescued his two wiues.
Daudi agĩcookia indo ciothe iria Aamaleki maakuuĩte, o hamwe na atumia ake eerĩ.
19 And they lacked nothing, small or great, sonne or daughter, or of the spoyle of all that they had taken away: Dauid recouered them all.
Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩagire: mũndũ mwĩthĩ kana mũkũrũ, kamwana kana kairĩtu, indo iria ciothe ciatahĩtwo kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩa maakuuĩte. Daudi agĩcookithia indo ciothe.
20 Dauid also tooke all the sheepe, and the oxen, and they draue them before his cattell, and said, This is Dauids pray.
Nake akĩoya ndũũru ciothe cia mbũri na ngʼombe, nao andũ ake magĩcitwara mbere ya mahiũ marĩa mangĩ, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Ici nĩ indo iria Daudi aatahĩte.”
21 And Dauid came to the two hundreth men that were too wearie for to follow Dauid: whome they had made also to abide at the riuer Besor: and they came to meete Dauid, and to meete the people that were with him: so when Dauid came neere to the people, hee saluted them.
Ningĩ Daudi agĩkinya harĩ andũ arĩa magana meerĩ arĩa maanogete mũno makaremwo nĩ kũmũrũmĩrĩra na magatigwo thuutha hau mũkuru-inĩ wa Besori. Magĩũka gũthagaana Daudi na andũ arĩa maarĩ nake. Rĩrĩa Daudi na andũ ake maakuhĩrĩirie, akĩmageithia.
22 Then answered all the euill and wicked of the men that went with Dauid, and saide, Because they went not with vs, therefore will wee giue them none of the pray that wee haue recouered, saue to euery man his wife and his children: therefore let them carie them away and depart.
No andũ arĩa othe aaganu na arĩa a haaro thĩinĩ wa arũmĩrĩri a Daudi makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tondũ matiathiire hamwe na ithuĩ-rĩ, tũtikũgayana nao indo cia gũtahwo iria tũcookithĩtie. No rĩrĩ, o mũndũ no oe mũtumia wake na ciana athiĩ.”
23 Then saide Dauid, Yee shall not doe so, my brethren, with that which the Lord hath giuen vs, who hath preserued vs, and deliuered the companie that came against vs, into our handes.
Daudi agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Aca, ariũ a baba, mũtingĩĩka ũguo na indo iria Jehova atũheete. Nĩatũgitĩire na akaneana mbũtũ iria ciatũũkĩrĩire moko-inĩ maitũ.
24 For who will obey you in this matter? but as his part is that goeth downe to the battel, so shall his part be, that tarieth by the stuffe: they shall part alike.
Nũũ ũngĩthikĩrĩria ũguo mũroiga? Igai rĩa mũndũ ũrĩa watigirwo akĩrora indo rĩkũiganana na rĩa ũrĩa waikũrũkire agĩthiĩ mbaara-inĩ. Othe mekũgayana o ũndũ ũmwe.”
25 So from that day forward hee made it a statute and a lawe in Israel, vntill this day.
Daudi agĩtua ũndũ ũcio ũtuĩke kĩrĩra na watho wa kũrũmagĩrĩrwo kũu Isiraeli kuuma mũthenya ũcio nginya ũmũthĩ.
26 When Dauid therefore came to Ziklag, he sent of the pray vnto the Elders of Iudah and to his friends, saying, See there is a blessing for you of the spoyle of the enemies of the Lord.
Rĩrĩa Daudi aakinyire Zikilagi, agĩtũmĩra athuuri a Juda arĩa maarĩ arata ake indo imwe cia iria ciatahĩtwo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gĩkĩ nĩ kĩheo kĩanyu harĩ indo iria itahĩtwo kuuma kũrĩ thũ cia Jehova.”
27 Hee sent to them of Beth-el, and to them of South Ramoth, and to them of Iattir,
Agĩcitũmĩra arĩa maarĩ Betheli, na Ramothu-Negevu, na Jatiri;
28 And to them of Aroer, and to them of Siphmoth, and to them of Eshtemoa,
na arĩa maarĩ Aroeri, na Sifimothu, na Eshitemoa,
29 And to them of Rachal, and to them of the cities of the Ierahmeelites, and to them of the cities of the Kenites,
na Rakali; na arĩa maarĩ matũũra ma Ajerameeli, na Akeni;
30 And to them of Hormah, and to them of Chor-ashan, and to them of Athach,
o na arĩa maarĩ Horoma, na Bori-Ashani, na Athaki,
31 And to them of Hebron, and to all the places where Dauid and his men had hanted.
na Hebironi; na arĩa maarĩ kũndũ guothe kũrĩa Daudi na andũ ake moorũũrĩte.
