< 1 Samuel 30 >

1 And it came to pass when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the 'Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burnt it with fire;
Daudi kod joge nochopo Ziklag chiengʼ mar adek. Koro jo-Amalek noyudo osemonjo Negev gi Ziklag. Negipeyo Ziklag mi giwangʼe,
2 And had taken captive the women that were therein, both great and small: they had not slain any one, but had led them off, and gone on their way.
kendo gimako mon kod ji duto mane ni kanyo, jomatindo kod jomadongo ma giteroe twech. To ne ok ginego ngʼato kuomgi, to ne gikawogi ma gidhi kodgi.
3 When therefore David and his men came to the city, behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, had been taken captive.
Kane Daudi gi joge ochopo Ziklag, negiyudo ka osewangʼe gi mach kendo mondgi, yawuotgi gi nyigi nosemaki oter e twech.
4 And David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
Daudi gi joge noywak matek ma tekregi norumo makoro ok ginyal ywak.
5 And the two wives of David were also taken captive, Achino'am the Yizre'elitess, and Abigayil the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Mond Daudi ariyo bende ne osemaki ma gin Ahinoam nyar Jezreel gi Abigael ma dhako ma chwore otho mane jaod Nabal ja-Karmel.
6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was imbittered, every man for his sons and for his daughters; but David fortified himself in the Lord his God.
Daudi ne chunye ool nikech jogo ne wacho ni mondo ochiele gi kite; ka moro ka moro ne winjo lit nikech yawuote gi nyige. Daudi to noyudo teko moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache.
7 And David said to Ebyathar the priest, the son of Achimelech, Bring hither, I pray thee, unto me the ephod. And Ebyathar brought the ephod near unto David.
Eka Daudi nowachone Abiathar jadolo, ma wuod Ahimelek niya, “Kelna law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod.” Abiathar nokelone,
8 And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop! shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou wilt surely overtake them, and certainly recover [all].
mi Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye wach ni, “Bende dalaw joma osepeyowagi. Bende dajukgi?” Nodwoke niya, “Lawgi. Chutho inijukgi mi inires jogi duto.”
9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and came up to the brook Bessor, where those that were left behind stayed.
Daudi gi joge mia auchiel nochopo e Holo mar Besor, joge moko nodongʼ kanyo,
10 But David pursued on, he and four hundred men; and there stayed behind two hundred men, who were too fatigued to go over the brook Bessor.
nimar ji mia ariyo nool ahinya mane ok ginyal ngʼado holono. To Daudi gi ji mia angʼwen nodhi nyime gi lepo.
11 And they found an Egyptian man in the field, and took him to David, and gave him bread, and he did eat; and they made him drink water;
Negiyudo ja-Misri moro e pap mi gikele ir Daudi. Negimiye pi mondo omodhi gi chiemo mondo ocham
12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins, and he ate, and then his spirit returned to him; for he had not eaten any bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.
nus mar kek molos gi olemb ngʼowu to gi kek molos gi resin. Nochiemo ma chunye noduogo nikech noyudo pok ochiemo kata modho pi kuom odiechienge adek gi otieno bende.
13 And David said unto him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young Egyptian man, the servant to an 'Amalekite; and my master left me behind, because I fell sick, today three days ago.
Daudi nopenje niya, “In ngʼat ngʼa? To in jakanye?” Nowacho niya, “An ja-Misri ma misumba ja-Amalek. Ruodha nojwangʼa moweya, ka tuo nogoya ndalo adek mokadho.
14 We made an invasion upon the south of the Kerethites, and upon that which belongeth to Judah, and upon the south of Caleb; and Ziklag did we burn with fire.
Ne wapeyo Negev mar jo-Kereth kod gwengʼ Juda to gi Negev ma piny Kaleb mine wawangʼo Ziklag.”
15 And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not surrender me into the hand of my master, and then will I bring thee down to this troop.
Daudi nopenje niya, “Bende inyalo tera ir jopechogi?” Nodwoke niya, “Kwongʼrina e nyim Nyasaye ni ok ninega kata dwoka e lwet ruodha, to abiro teri irgi.”
16 And he brought him down; and behold, they were scattered over the face of all the country, eating and drinking, and dancing for joy, because of all the great spoil which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
Notelo ni Daudi ka gilor mwalo, kendo ne giyudogi ka gike e pap, ka gichiemo kendo metho ka gin gimor maduongʼ nikech gik mane gipeyo e piny jo-Filistia gi piny Juda ne thoth ahinya.
17 And David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day; and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, who rode upon camels, and fled.
Daudi nokedo kodgi chakre yuso piny nyaka kinyne godhiambo. Kendo ne onge ngʼat mane otony modhi makmana yawuowi mia angʼwen mane oidho ngamia kende ema noringo otony.
18 And David recovered all that the 'Amalekites had taken away; and his two wives also did David rescue.
Daudi noreso gik moko duto mane jo-Amalek osepeyo kaachiel gi monde ariyo.
19 And there was nothing missing to them, from small to great, as also sons and daughters, and spoil, down to every thing that they had taken from them: the whole did David bring back.
Onge gimoro amora mane olal bed ni en ngʼama tin kata ngʼama duongʼ, wuowi kata nyako, gik mane ope kata gik mane gikawo, Daudi nodwoko gik moko duto.
20 And David took all the flocks and the herds: these they drove before those other cattle, and said, This is David's spoil.
Nokawo kweth mag jamni kod mag dhok mi joge nosembogi e nyim kweth mag jamni mamoko kowacho niya, “Magi gin gik ma Daudi opeyo.”
21 And David came to the two hundred men, who had been too fatigued to follow after David, and whom they had left to remain at the brook Bessor: and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him; and David came near to the people, and asked them after their well-being.
Eka Daudi noduogo e Holo mar Besor kama ji mia ariyo mane ool mane ok nyal dhi kode nodongʼie. Negibiro mondo girom ni Daudi gi ji mane ni kode. Ka Daudi gi joge nosudo machiegni nomosogi.
22 Then exclaimed every wicked and worthless man, of those that had gone with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, and these they may lead away, and go.
To joricho duto gi joma acheje mane ni ei joma luwo Daudi nowacho niya, “Nikech ne ok gidhi kodwa, ok wabi pogo kodgi gik mope ma wadwoko. To kata kamano ngʼato ka ngʼato okaw chiege gi nyithinde mondo odhigo.”
23 Then said David, Ye must not do so, my brethren; since the Lord hath given us this, and guarded us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
Daudi nodwoko niya, “Ooyo owetena, ok onego utim kamano gi gik ma Jehova Nyasaye osemiyowa. Oseritowa mi ochiwonwa joma nomonjowa.
24 And who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as is the part of him that went down to the battle, so shall be the part of him that remained with the baggage: together must they share.
Ngʼama biro winjo wachu? Pok mar joma nodongʼ karito gigewa biro bedo marom gi pok ngʼat mane odhi e lweny. Ji duto biro yudo maromre.”
25 And it happened from that day and forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel until this day.
Daudi noketo ma obedo chik e Israel chakre chiengʼno nyaka chil kawuono.
26 And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil unto the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, Behold, here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the Lord:
Ka Daudi nochopo Ziklag nooro joote gi gik mope ne jodong Juda mosiepene, kowacho niya, “Ero aoronu mich kuom gik mope mag jowasik Jehova Nyasaye.”
27 To those who were in Beth-el, and to those who were in south Ramoth, and to those who were in Yattir,
Noorgi ni joma ne ni Bethel, Ramoth Negev gi Jatir,
28 And to those who were in 'Aro'er, and to those who were in Siphmoth, and to those who were in Eshtemoa',
gi joma ni Aroer, Sifmoth gi Eshtemoa,
29 And to those who were in Rachal, and to those who were in the cities of Yerach-meelites, and to those who were in the cities of the Kenites,
gi Rakal; gi jogo mane ni e mier matindo mag jo-Jeramel gi jo-Keni,
30 And to those who were in Chormah, and to those who were in Kor-'ashan, and to those who were in 'Athach,
to gi joma ni Horma, Bor Ashan gi Athak
31 And to those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men had wandered about.
kod Hebron; to mago man e kuonde duto ma Daudi gi joge nosebedo kadhiye.
