1 Samuel 22
1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.
Devid hapụrụ Gat gbaba nʼọgba nkume Adulam. Mgbe ụmụnne ya ndị ikom na ndị ezinaụlọ nna ya nụrụ nke a, ha jekwuru ya nʼebe ahụ.
2 And every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.
Ndị ọzọ malitekwara ịbịakwute ya nʼebe ahụ, ndị niile nọ na mkpagbu dị iche iche, ndị ji ụgwọ, na ndị ọchịchị Sọl na-adịghị mma. Ha niile jekwuru ya. Ọ dịghị anya Devid ghọọrọ onyendu ha. Ihe ruru narị mmadụ anọ so ya.
3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what Elohim will do for me.
Devid sitere nʼebe ahụ jee Mizpa dị na Moab rịọọ eze obodo ahụ sị, “Biko, ị ga-ekwe ka nna m na nne m pụta bịa biri nʼetiti unu tutu ruo mgbe m matara ihe Chineke na-aga imere m?”
4 And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold.
Ya mere, ọ hapụrụ ha ka ha nọdụ na nke eze Moab. Ha na ya nọgidere oge niile Devid bi nʼebe ahụ e wusiri ike.
5 And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth.
Ma Gad onye amụma sịrị Devid, “Anọgidela nʼebe ahụ e wusiri ike, kama laghachi nʼala Juda.” Ya mere, Devid biliri gaa nʼoke ọhịa Heret.
6 When Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him, (now Saul abode in Gibeah under a tree in Ramah, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him; )
Ugbu a Sọl nụrụ na achọtala ebe Devid na ndị ikom na-eso ya nọ. Sọl, onye ji ùbe ya nʼaka nọdụrụ ala nʼokpuru osisi tamarisk nke dị nʼugwu dị na Gibea. Ndị ozi ya guzokwa gburugburu ya.
7 Then Saul said unto his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds;
Sọl gwara ha sị, “Geenụ ntị unu ndị ikom Benjamin! Ọ bụ unu niile ka nwa Jesi ga-enye ala ubi na ubi vaịnị? Ọ bụ unu niile ka ọ ga-eme ndị ọchịagha na-achị ọtụtụ puku ndị agha, na ọchịagha na-achị ọtụtụ narị ndị agha?
8 That all of you have conspired against me, and there is none that sheweth me that my son hath made a league with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or sheweth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
Ọ bụ ya mere unu ji dịnyere ya imegide m? Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu gwara m na nwa m na nwa Jesi gbara ndụ. Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu ihe gbasara m na-emetụ nʼobi ịgwa m na nwa m nwoke akpaliela ohu m imegide m, ichebiri m nʼụzọ, dịka o mere nʼụbọchị taa.”
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite, which was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
Ma Doeg onye Edọm, onye so ndị ozi Sọl guzo nʼebe ahụ kwuru sị, “Ahụrụ m mgbe nwa Jesi bịakwutere Ahimelek, nwa Ahitub na Nob.
10 And he inquired of YHWH for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
Ahimelek jụtaara ya ase site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị, ma nyekwa ya ihe oriri na mma agha Golaịat onye Filistia.”
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob: and they came all of them to the king.
Mgbe ahụ, eze Sọl zipụrụ ozi nye Ahimelek nwa Ahitub na ndị ezinaụlọ nna ya niile, ndị bụ ndị nchụaja na Nob. Ha niile bịara guzo nʼihu eze.
12 And Saul said, Hear now, thou son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, mymaster.
Sọl gwara ha okwu sị, “Gee ntị, gị nwa Ahitub.” Ahimelek zara sị, “Ana m ege ntị, onyenwe m.”
13 And Saul said unto him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast inquired of Elohim for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
Sọl jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị mere gị na nwa Jesi ji gbaa izu imegide m? Gịnị mere i ji nye ya nri na mma agha, jụkwaara ya ase site nʼaka Chineke? Gịnị mere i ji na-agba ya ume ka o nupu isi nʼebe m nọ, na ka ọ bịakwa nʼebe a imegide m taa?”
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, And who is so faithful among all thy servants as David, which is the king's son in law, and goeth at thy bidding, and is honourable in thine house?
Ahimelek zara eze sị, “Onye nʼetiti ndị ohu gị niile bụ onye kwesiri ntụkwasị obi dịka Devid, ọgọ eze, na onyeisi ndị agha na-eche gị nche; ọ bụkwa onye a na-enye nsọpụrụ dị ukwuu nʼezinaụlọ gị?
15 Did I then begin to inquire of Elohim for him? be it far from me: let not the king impute any thing un to his servant, nor to all the house of my father: for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.
Nke a ọ bụ ụbọchị mbụ m na-ajụrụ ya ase nʼaka Chineke? Ọ bụghị! Ka eze ghara ibo ohu ya na ezinaụlọ nna m ebubo, nʼihi na ohu gị amaghị ihe ọbụla banyere okwu a niile.”
16 And the king said, Thou shalt surely die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.
Ma eze kwuru sị, “Ị ga-anwụ. Ahimelek gị na ezinaụlọ nna gị niile!”
17 And the king said unto the footmen that stood about him, Turn, and slay the priests of YHWH; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not shew it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hand to fall upon the priests of YHWH.
O nyere ndị na-eso ya iwu sị ha, “Gbuonụ ndị nchụaja ndị a, nʼihi na ha na Devid agbaala izuzu; ha makwa na o si nʼihu m na-agbapụ, ma ha agwaghị m!” Ma ndị agha eze jụrụ isetipụ aka ha megide ndị nchụaja Onyenwe anyị.
18 And the king said to Doeg, Turn thou, and fall upon the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and he fell upon the priests, and slew on that day fourscore and five persons that did wear a linen ephod.
Mgbe ahụ eze nyere Doeg iwu sị ya, “Gị onwe gị, chigharịa gbuo ha.” Ya mere, Doeg onye Edọm chigharịrị tigbuo ha. Nʼụbọchị ahụ, o gburu iri ndị nchụaja asatọ na ise, ndị yi uwe akwa ọcha efọọd.
19 And Nob, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
O ji mma agha jee Nob, obodo ndị nchụaja, gbuo ezinaụlọ ndị nchụaja niile, nwoke na nwanyị, na ụmụntakịrị, na ụmụ na-aṅụ ara. O gbukwara ehi na ịnyịnya ibu na atụrụ ha niile.
20 And one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.
Otu nʼime ụmụ Ahimelek nwa Ahitub, aha ya bụ Abịata gbapụrụ, gbakwuru Devid.
21 And Abiathar shewed David that Saul had slain YHWH 's priests.
Ọ gwara Devid na Sọl egbuola ndị nchụaja Onyenwe anyị.
22 And David said unto Abiathar, I knew it that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul: I have occasioned the death of all the persons of thy father's house.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid sịrị Abịata, “Nʼụbọchị ahụ, mgbe Doeg onye Edọm nọ nʼebe ahụ, amaara m na ọ ghaghị ịgwa Sọl. Mụ onwe m kpatara ọnwụ ndị niile nke ndị ezinaụlọ nna gị.
23 Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life: but with me thou shalt be in safeguard.
Soro m nọdụ nʼebe a, atụla ụjọ, nʼihi na onye na-achọ ndụ gị na-achọkwa ndụ nke m. Mmekpa ahụ ọbụla agaghị adakwasị gị ma mụ na gị nọdụ.”
