1 Samuel 21
1 And David comes to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembles at meeting David and says to him, “Why [are] you alone, and no man [is] with you?”
Daudi nodhi Nob ir Ahimelek jadolo. Ahimelek nokirni kane oromo kode mopenjo niya, “Angʼo momiyo in kendi? Angʼo momiyo ngʼato ok obiro kodi?”
2 And David says to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commanded me [on] a matter, and he says to me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I send you, and which I have commanded you; and [my] young men know [to go] to such and such a place.
Daudi nodwoko Ahimelek jadolo niya, “Ruoth oseora e ote moro konyisa ni, ‘Kik ngʼato ngʼe gimoro amora kuom oteni kod gik monyisi mondo itim.’ Joga to asechiko mondo waromgo kamoro.
3 And now, what is there under your hand? Give five loaves into my hand, or that which is found.”
Angʼo ma in-go ka sani? Miya makati abich kata gimoro amora minyalo yudo.”
4 And the priest answers David and says, “There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the youths have been kept from women.”
To jadolo nodwoko Daudi niya, “Aonge gi makati moro amora makmana nitiere moko mowal ka, ginyalo tiyo kode mana ka giseritore ma ok gibedo e achiel gi mon.”
5 And David answers the priest and says to him, “Surely, if women have been restrained from us as before in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it [is] a common way; and also, surely it is sanctified today in the vessel.”
Daudi nodwoke niya, “Adier wasebedo mabor gi mon, mana kaka wajatimo kinde ma awuok oko. Ringre chwo to ler kata mana e ote moko ma ok ler. To koro kawuononi digibed maler maromo nade!”
6 And the priest gives the holy thing to him, for there was no bread there except the Bread of the Presentation, which is turned aside from the presence of YHWH to put hot bread [there] in the day of its being taken away.
Eka jadolo nomiye makati mowal nikech ne onge makati moro amora makmana makati moket e Nyim Jehova Nyasaye migolo oko chiengʼ miketo makati maliet kargi.
7 And there [is] a man of the servants of Saul detained before YHWH on that day, and his name [is] Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul has.
Koro jatich Saulo moro ne nitie kanyo chiengʼno mane ogengʼne e nyim Jehova Nyasaye; ne en Doeg ma ja-Edom, mane jatend jokwadh Saulo.
8 And David says to Ahimelech, “And is there not spear or sword here under your hand? For I have taken neither my sword nor my vessels in my hand, for the matter of the king was urgent.”
Daudi nopenjo Ahimelek niya, “Donge dibedie gi tongʼ kata ligangla moro amora ka? Ne ok akawo ligangla kata gir lweny moro amora, nikech ote ruoth nobirona mapiyo.”
9 And the priest says, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is wrapped in a garment behind the ephod, if you take it to yourself, take; for there is none other except it in this [place].” And David says, “There is none like it—give it to me.”
Jadolo nodwoke niya, “Ligangla Goliath ja-Filistia, mane inego e holo mar Ela, nika; oboye gi law en e tok law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod. Ka idware to kawe, onge ligangla moro makmana mano.” Daudi nowacho niya, “Onge moro amora machal kode; miyago.”
10 And David rises and flees on that day from the face of Saul, and comes to Achish king of Gath;
Chiengʼno Daudi noringo Saulo mi odhi ir Akish ruoth Gath.
11 and the servants of Achish say to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Is it not of this one [that] they sing in dances, saying, Saul struck among his thousands, and David among his myriads?”
To jotich Akish nowachone niya, “Donge ngʼatni e Daudi ma ruodh pinygi? Donge en ema gimielne ka giwer ni: “‘Saulo osenego ji alufe, to Daudi onego alufe gi alufe’?”
12 And David lays these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish king of Gath,
Wechegi nodonjo e chuny Daudi mi nomiyo oluoro Akish ruoth Gath ahinya.
13 and changes his behavior before their eyes, and feigns himself mad in their hand, and scribbles on the doors of the gate, and lets down his spittle to his beard.
Omiyo nowuondore ni en janeko e nyimgi kanyo, kane en e lwetgi notimo timbe mag janeko, kogwaro dhorangach kendo koweyo olawo wuok e dhoge nyaka e yie tike.
14 And Achish says to his servants, “Behold, you see a man acting as a madman; why do you bring him to me?
Akish nowachone jotije niya, “Ngʼiuru ngʼatni en janeko! Angʼo momiyo ukele ira?
15 Am I lacking madmen, that you have brought in this one to act as a madman before me? Does this one come into my house?”
Uparo ni aonge gi joneko moromo momiyo ukelo ngʼatni e nyima? Ne ochuno ni nyaka ngʼatni bi e oda?”
