1 Samuel 27
1 And David said in his heart, Now I may yet perish suddenly one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing better for me than that I should escape at once into the land of the Philistines, then Saul will abstain from me, to seek me any more in all the territory of Israel: and so shall I escape out of his hand.
David el sifacna nunku insial, “Sie len Saul el ac mau uniyuwi. Wona nga in kaingla nu Philistia, na Saul el ac tia sifil sukyu in facl Israel, ac nga fah moul in misla.”
2 And David arose, and he passed over himself with the six hundred men that were with him unto Achish, the son of Ma'och, the king of Gath.
Ke ma inge, David ac mwet onfoko lal elos tuyak ac som nu yorol Achish, wen natul Maoch, su tokosra fin acn Gath.
3 And David remained with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, also David with his two wives, Achino'am the Yizre'elitess, and Abigayil, Nabal's wife, the Carmelitess.
David ac mwet lal wi sou lalos, elos oakwuki muta in facl Gath. El us mutan luo kial welul: Ahinoam mutan Jezreel se, ac Abigail mutan Carmel se su katinmas kial Nabal.
4 And when it was told unto Saul that David was fled to Gath, he continued no more to seek for him.
Ke Saul el lohng lah David el kaingla nu Gath, el tila sokol.
5 And David said unto Achish, If now I have found grace in thy eyes, let them give me a place in some one of the country-towns, that I may dwell there; for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?
David el fahk nu sel Tokosra Achish, “Fin pwaye lah nga kom kawuk, ase sie siti srisrik nga in muta we. Nga tia enenu nga in wi kom muta in siti lun tokosra.”
6 Then gave Achish unto him on that day Ziklag: therefore hath Ziklag pertained unto the kings of Judah until this day.
Ouinge Tokosra Achish el sang siti srisrik se Ziklag nu sel, ac pa inge sripa se sis acn Ziklag ma na lun tokosra lun mwet Judah nwe misenge.
7 And the number of the days that David dwelt in the fields of the Philistines was a full year and four months.
David el muta in facl lun mwet Philistia malem singoul onkosr.
8 And David and his men went up, and invaded the Geshurites, and the Gizrites, and the 'Amalekites; for these nations were of old the inhabitants of the land, till thou comest to Shur, and as far as the land of Egypt.
In pulan pacl sac, David ac mwet lal elos mweun lain mwet Geshur, mwet Girzi, ac mwet Amalek. Mwet inge elos nu muta inge in pacl loeloes somla nwe in pacl se inge. David el mweuni acn inge som na nwe sun acn Shur, ac fahla pac nwe Egypt,
9 And David smote the land, and left not alive either man or woman, and took away the flocks, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish.
ac onela mukul ac mutan, ac sruokya sheep, cow, donkey, camel, ac oayapa nuknuk. Na elos ac folok nu yorol Tokosra Achish,
10 And Achish said, Whither have ye made an inroad today? And David said, Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Yerachmeelites, and against the south of the Kenites.
ac el ac siyuk sel David, “Ku kom som mweun oya misenge?” Ac David el ac fahk nu sel lah elos som layen nu eir in acn Judah, ku el ac fahk mu elos som nwe in facl sin sou lal Jerahmeel, ku nu in facl sin mwet Ken.
11 And David left not alive either man or woman, to bring [them] to Gath, saying, That they may not tell on us, saying, So hath David done, and so is his custom all the days he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.
David el ac onela mwet nukewa, mukul ac mutan. El oru ouinge in mau wangin mwet folok nu Gath ac srumun ma el, ac mwet lal inge, oru uh. David el oru na lumah se inge ke lusen pacl se el muta Philistia ah.
12 And Achish had confidence in David, saying, He hath surely spoiled his odor among his people, among Israel; and he will become unto me a servant for ever.
Tuh Tokosra Achish el lulalfongel David, ac el sifacna nunku insial, “David el srungayuk na pwaye sin mwet lal sifacna, mwet Israel. Ke ma inge el ac fah enenu elan kulansupweyu in moul lal nufon.”
