1 Samuel 22
1 And David goes from there, and escapes to the cave of Adullam, and his brothers hear, and all the house of his father, and they go down to him there;
David el kaingla liki siti Gath ac som nu ke luf se su oan apkuran nu Adullam. Ke tamulel lal ac mwet in sou lal kewa elos lohngak lah el oasr we, elos som nu yorol.
2 and every man in distress gathers themselves to him, and every man who has an exactor, and every man bitter in soul, and he is for head over them, and there are about four hundred men with him.
Na mwet su muta in ongoiya, oayapa mwet soemoul sin mwet, ac mwet supwar, elos som pac nu yorol. Sahp oasr mwet angfoko ke u se inge, na David el mwet kol lalos.
3 And David goes from there to Mizpeh of Moab and says to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and my mother come out with you, until I know what God does for me”;
David el som liki acn sac ac tuku nu Mizpah in acn Moab, ac fahk nu sin tokosra we, “Nunak munas lela tuh papa tumuk ac nina kiuk in muta yurum nu ke nga konauk lah mea God El ac fah oru nu sik.”
4 and he leads them before the king of Moab, and they dwell with him all the days of David’s being in the fortress.
Na David el likiya papa tumal ac nina kial yurin tokosra lun Moab, ac eltal muta yorol ke lusenna pacl ma David el wikwik in luf sac.
5 And the prophet Gad says to David, “You do not abide in a fortress, go, and you have entered the land of Judah for yourself”; and David goes and enters the forest of Hareth.
Na Gad, sie mwet palu, el tuku nu yorol David ac fahk, “Nik kom muta inge. Tuyak ac fahsr nu in facl Judah.” Ke ma inge, David el som ac ilyak nu insak Hereth.
6 And Saul hears that David has become known, and the men who [are] with him, and Saul is abiding in Gibeah, under the grove in Ramah, and his spear [is] in his hand, and all his servants [are] standing by him.
Sie len ah Saul el muta Gibeah, ye sak tamarisk soko fin tohktok se, ac osra natul oan inpaol. Mwet kol lal nukewa tu raunella. Na fwackyang nu sel lah koneyukyak David ac mwet lal uh.
7 And Saul says to his servants who are standing by him, “Now hear, sons of Benjamin; does the son of Jesse also give fields and vineyards to all of you? Does he appoint all of you [to be] heads of thousands and heads of hundreds?
Ac Saul el fahk nu sin mwet lal inge, “Kowos mwet Benjamin, porongeyu! Ya kowos nunku mu David el ac sot ima in grape ac ima pac saya nu suwos nukewa, ac oru tuh kowos nukewa in mwet kol lun un mwet mweun lal?
8 For all of you have conspired against me, and there is none uncovering my ear about my son’s cutting [a covenant] with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you grieving for me, and uncovering my ear, that my son has raised up my servant against me, to lie in wait as [at] this day.”
Ya pa ingan sripa se oru kowos pwapa in lainyu an? Wangin sie suwos tuku akkalemye nu sik lah wen nutik sifacna el asruoki nu sel David. Wanginna mwet nunku keik, ku akkalemye nu sik lah David, su sie sin mwet luk, el suk pacl lal in uniyuwi, ac wen se nutik el kasrel!”
9 And Doeg the Edomite answers, who is set over the servants of Saul, and says, “I have seen the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech son of Ahitub,
Doeg el wi mwet lal Saul inge tu insac, ac el fahk, “Nga tuh liyal David ke el som nu yorol Ahimelech, wen natul Ahitub, in acn Nob.
10 and he inquires of YHWH for him, and has given provision to him, and has given the sword of Goliath the Philistine to him.”
Ahimelech el tuh siyuk sin LEUM GOD lah mea fal David elan oru, na el sang kutu mwe mongo nu sel David, oayapa cutlass se natul Goliath, mwet Philistia sac.”
11 And the king sends to call Ahimelech son of Ahitub, the priest, and all the house of his father, the priests, who [are] in Nob, and all of them come to the king;
Na Tokosra Saul el sapla solalma Ahimelech, mwet tol, ac sou lal kewa, su elos mwet tol pac in Nob, ac elos tuku nu yorol.
12 and Saul says, “Now hear, son of Ahitub”; and he says, “Here I [am], my lord.”
Ac Saul el fahk nu sel Ahimelech, “Ahimelech, porongeyu!” Ac Ahimelech el topuk, “O Tokosra, nga pa inge.”
13 And Saul says to him, “Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, by your giving bread and a sword to him, and to inquire of God for him, to rise against me, to lie in wait, as [at] this day?”
Ac Saul el siyuk sel, “Efu ku kom ac David pwapa in lainyu? Efu kom ku sang mwe mongo nu sel ac cutlass sac, oayapa siyuk kasru sin God kacl David? Na inge el forma lainyu, ac el tupan pacl wo lal in uniyuwi.”
14 And Ahimelech answers the king and says, “And who among all your servants [is] as David—faithful, and son-in-law of the king, and has turned aside to your council, and is honored in your house?
Ahimelech el topuk, “David pa oaru emeet sin mwet pwapa lom! El wen talupom, el captain lun mwet soan lom, ac mwet nukewa inkul sum elos arulana akfulatyal.
15 Today have I begun to inquire of God for him? Far be it from me! Do not let the king lay anything against his servant, against any of the house of my father, for your servant has known nothing of all this, little or much.”
Aok, pwaye nga tuh siyuk kasru sin God kacl, tuh tia pacl se emeet nga oru pa inge. Ac funu ke kas se ma fahk mu nga pwapa lain kom, O Tokosra, nimet sis nu fuk, ku nu sin kutena mwet in sou luk, mweyen wanginna ma nga etu ke ma se inge!”
16 And the king says, “You surely die, Ahimelech, you and all the house of your father.”
Ac tokosra el fahk, “Ahimelech, kom ac sou lom nukewa enenu in misa.”
17 And the king says to the runners, those standing by him, “Turn around, and put the priests of YHWH to death, because their hand [is] also with David, and because they have known that he is fleeing, and have not uncovered my ear”; and the servants of the king have not been willing to put forth their hand to come against the priests of YHWH.
Na tokosra el fahk nu sin mwet mweun su tu siskal, “Uniya mwet tol lun LEUM GOD inge! Elos welul David nunak se, ac elos etu na lah David el kaingla, a elos tia fahk nu sik!” Tusruktu, mwet mweun inge elos tiana srukak paolos nu fin mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
18 And the king says to Doeg, “Turn around, and come against the priests”; and Doeg the Edomite turns around, and comes against the priests himself, and in that day puts to death eighty-five men bearing a linen ephod,
Ke ma inge, Saul el fahk nu sel Doeg, “Kom, oneltalu!” Na Doeg el onelosla nukewa. In len sac el uniya mwet tol oalngoul limekosr su fal in nukum ephod lun mwet tol.
19 and Nob, the city of the priests, he has struck by the mouth of the sword, from man and to woman, from infant and to suckling, and ox, and donkey, and sheep, by the mouth of the sword.
Saul el oayapa sap in anwukla mwet nukewa in acn Nob, su siti lun mwet tol — mukul, mutan, tulik srisrik ac tulik fusr, cow, donkey, sheep — ma inge nukewa anwukla.
20 And one son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, escapes, and his name [is] Abiathar, and he flees after David,
Tusruktu Abiathar, sie sin wen natul Ahimelech, el kaingla ac som welul David.
21 and Abiathar declares to David that Saul has slain the priests of YHWH.
El fahk nu sel David lah Saul el uniya mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
22 And David says to Abiathar, “I have known on that day when Doeg the Edomite [is] there, that he certainly declares [it] to Saul; I have brought [it] around to every person of the house of your father;
David el fahk nu sel Abiathar, “Ke nga tuh liyal Doeg in len sac, nga etu na lah el ac fahkak nu sel Saul ma orek ah. Ke ma inge, misa lun mwet nukewa in sou lom, oan fuk.
23 dwell with me; do not fear; for he who seeks my life seeks your life; for you [are my] charge with me.”
Mutana yuruk ac nikmet sangeng. Saul el lungse unikuti na kewa, tuh kom fin muta yuruk, kom ac fah moul.”
