< 1 Samuel 19 >
1 And Saul speaks to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, to put David to death,
Saul el fahk nu sel Jonathan, wen natul, ac nu sin mwet pwapa lal nukewa lah el akoo elan unilya David. Tusruktu, Jonathan el arulana lungse David,
2 and Jonathan son of Saul delighted in David exceedingly, and Jonathan declares [it] to David, saying, “My father Saul is seeking to put you to death, and now, please take heed in the morning, and you have abided in a secret place and been hidden,
na pa el fahkang nu sel David, “Papa tumuk el akoo elan unikomi. Nga kwafe sum tuh kom in arulana taran kom lututang. Som wikla ke sie acn lukma ac mutana we.
3 and I go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where you [are], and I speak of you to my father, and have seen what [is coming], and have declared [it] to you.”
Nga ac fah som tu sisken papa tumuk ke ima se kom wikwik we an, ac nga fah sramsram nu sel keim. Fin oasr ma kalem, nga tufah fahk nu sum.”
4 And Jonathan speaks good of David to his father Saul and says to him, “Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works [are] very good for you;
Jonathan el kaksakunul David nu sel Saul ac fahk, “Lela tokosra elan tia oru kutena ma koluk nu sel David, mwet kulansap lom, mweyen el soenna oru ma koluk nu sum. Ma nukewa el oru mwe kasru yohk nu sum.
5 indeed, he puts his life in his hand, and strikes the Philistine, and YHWH works a great salvation for all Israel; you have seen, and rejoice, and why do you sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for nothing?”
El pilesrala moul lal ke el tuh unilya Goliath, ac LEUM GOD El sang kutangla lulap nu sin Israel. Ke kom liye ah, kom engan. Na efu ku kom lungsum in oru ma koluk nu sin mwet se inge su wangin mwatal, ac unilya ke wangin sripa?”
6 And Saul listens to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swears, “YHWH lives—he does not die.”
Saul el auliyak ke sripen ma Jonathan el fahk ah, ac el oru sie wulela ku Inen LEUM GOD lah el ac fah tia unilya David.
7 And Jonathan calls for David, and Jonathan declares all these words to him, and Jonathan brings in David to Saul, and he is before him as before.
Na Jonathan el pangnolma David ac fahkang ma nukewa nu sel. Na el usalla David nu yorol Saul, ac David el kulansap nu sel Saul oana meet ah.
8 And there adds to be war, and David goes out and fights against the Philistines, and strikes among them [with] a great striking, and they flee from his face.
Mwet Philistia elos sifil tuku mweun. David el tuyak ac lainulos ac kutangulosla, ac elos kaing.
9 And a spirit of sadness [from] YHWH is to Saul, and he is sitting in his house, and his javelin [is] in his hand, and David is playing with the hand,
Sie len ah ngun koluk se sin LEUM GOD sifil sikyang nu sel Saul. El muta in lohm sel, ac osra soko oan inpaol. David el muta yorol ac srital ke harp natul.
10 and Saul seeks to strike with the javelin through David, and through the wall, and he frees himself from the presence of Saul, and he strikes the javelin through the wall; and David has fled and escapes during that night.
Saul el srike elan faksulang David nu pesinka uh ke osra soko ah. Tuh David el iwalla, ac osra soko ah kasiki na nu pesinka ah. Na David el illa ac kaingla.
11 And Saul sends messengers to the house of David to watch him, and to put him to death in the morning; and his wife Michal declares [it] to David, saying, “If you are not delivering your life tonight—tomorrow you are put to death.”
In fong sacna, Saul el supwala kutu mwet soan nu lohm sel David, elos in unilya ke lenelik. Michal, mutan kial David, el sensenkakinul ac fahk, “Kom fin tia kaingla ofong, na lutu kom ac anwuki.”
12 And Michal causes David to go down through the window, and he goes on, and flees, and escapes;
Michal el koella David ke winto se, ac el kaingla.
13 and Michal takes the teraphim, and lays [it] on the bed, and she has put the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows, and covers [it] with a garment.
Na Michal el eis sie ma sruloala ac filiya fin bed kial David ah, ac sang sie ilul ma orek ke unen nani ac filiya ke sifa ah, na el sang kaot se afinya.
14 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and she says, “He [is] sick.”
Ke mwet lal Saul tuku in eisal David, Michal el fahk nu selos mu David el mas.
15 And Saul sends the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up in the bed to me in order to put him to death.”
Na Saul el sifil folokunulosla tuh elos in sifacna liyal David ke mutalos, ac el sapkin nu selos, “Usalu na fin bed kial an, ac nga fah unilya.”
16 And the messengers come in, and behold, the teraphim [are] on the bed, and the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows.
Na elos utyak nu in lohm sel David ac liye tuh na ma sruloala se pa oan fin bed sac, ac ilul se ma orek ke unen nani oan ke sifa ah.
17 And Saul says to Michal, “Why have you thus deceived me—that you send my enemy away, and he escapes?” And Michal says to Saul, “He said to me, Send me away. Why do I put you to death?”
Saul el siyuk sel Michal, “Efu ku kom kiapweyu ouinge, pwanang mwet lokoalok luk kaingla?” Michal el topuk, “El fahk mu el ac uniyuwi nga fin tia kasrel elan kaingla.”
18 And David has fled, and escapes, and comes to Samuel at Ramath, and declares to him all that Saul has done to him, and he goes, he and Samuel, and they dwell in Naioth.
David el kaingla nu yorol Samuel in acn Ramah, ac fahkang ma nukewa ma Saul el oru nu sel. Na David ac Samuel som nu Naioth ac muta we.
19 And it is declared to Saul, saying, “Behold, David [is] in Naioth in Ramah.”
Saul el lohngak lah David el oasr Naioth in Ramah,
20 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and they see the assembly of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing, set over them, and the Spirit of God is on Saul’s messengers, and they prophesy—they also.
na el supwala kutu mwet in som ac sruokilya David. Na elos liye un mwet palu tacn ac sasa, ac Samuel el kololos. Na ngun lun God tuku ke ku nu fin mwet lal Saul inge, na elos wi pac tacn ac sasa.
21 And they declare [it] to Saul, and he sends other messengers, and they prophesy—they also; and Saul adds and sends messengers a third time, and they prophesy—they also.
Ke Saul el lohngak lah ouinge, na el sifil supwala kutu mwet lal. Ke mwet inge elos tuku, elos wi pac tacn ac sasa. Na Saul el sifilpa supwala fwil se aktolu, ac elos oru oapana.
22 And he goes—he also—to Ramath, and comes to the great well which [is] in Sechu, and asks and says, “Where [are] Samuel and David?” And [one] says, “Behold, in Naioth in Ramah.”
Na Saul sifacna el mukuiyak in som nu Ramah. Ke el sun lufin kof lulap in acn Secu, el siyuk lah pia acn se Samuel ac David muta we. Fwackyang nu sel mu eltal oasr Naioth.
23 And he goes there—to Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God is on him also; and he goes, going on, and he prophesies until his coming to Naioth in Ramah,
Ke el fahsr in som nu Naioth, ngun lun God tuku ke ku nu facl, ac el fahsr tacn ac sasa nwe ke na el sun acn Naioth.
24 and he strips off—he also—his garments, and prophesies—he also—before Samuel, and falls down naked all that day and all the night; therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
El sarukla nuknuk lal ac tacn ac sasa ye mutal Samuel, ac el koflufolla oan in len sac nufon ac fong sac nufon. (Pa inge mutaweyen soakas se fahk mu, “Mea pwaye lah Saul el wela mwet palu?”)
