< 1 Samuel 23 >
1 And they declare to David, saying, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and they are spoiling the threshing-floors.”
Ary nisy nanambara tamin’ i Davida hoe: Indro, ny Filistina mamely an’ i Keila ka mamabo ny ao amin’ ny famoloana.
2 And David inquires of YHWH, saying, “Do I go? And have I struck among these Philistines?” And YHWH says to David, “Go, and you have struck among the Philistines, and saved Keilah.”
Ary Davida nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah hoe: Handeha hamely izao Filistina izao va aho? Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Davida: Mandehana, asio ny Filistina, ka vonjeo Keila.
3 And David’s men say to him, “Behold, we here in Judah are afraid; and how much more when we go to Keilah, to the ranks of the Philistines?”
Ary hoy ny olon’ i Davida taminy: He! atỳ Joda aza isika matahotra, koa mainka raha mankany Keila hiady amin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina?
4 And David adds again to inquire of YHWH, and YHWH answers him and says, “Rise, go down to Keilah, for I am giving the Philistines into your hand.”
Dia nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah indray Davida. Ary Jehovah namaly azy hoe: Miaingà, midìna hankany Keila, fa Izaho no hanolotra ny Filistina ho eo an-tananao.
5 And David goes, and his men, to Keilah, and fights with the Philistines, and leads away their livestock, and strikes among them [with] a great striking, and David saves the inhabitants of Keilah.
Dia lasa Davida sy ny olony nankany Keila ary niady tamin’ ny Filistina ka namabo ny ombiny sady nahafaty olona be dia be. Ary dia voavonjin’ i Davida ny mponina tao Keila.
6 And it comes to pass, in the fleeing of Abiathar son of Ahimelech to David, to Keilah, an ephod came down in his hand.
Ary raha nandositra nankany amin’ i Davida tany Keila Abiatara, zanak’ i Ahimeleka, dia nitondra efoda teny an-tànany izy.
7 And it is declared to Saul that David has come to Keilah, and Saul says, “God has made him known for my hand, for he has been shut in, to enter into a city of doors and bar.”
Ary nambara tamin’ i Saoly fa tonga tao Keila Davida. Dia hoy Saoly: Andriamanitra efa nanolotra azy ho eo an-tanako, satria efa voahidy izy izao noho ny nidirany amin’ ny tanàna misy vavahady mihidy.
8 And Saul summons all the people to the battle, to go down to Keilah, to lay siege to David and to his men.
Ary Saoly namory ny olona rehetra hidina hankany Keila hanafika ka hanao fahirano an’ i Davida sy ny olony.
9 And David knows that Saul is devising the evil against him and says to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod near.”
Ary fantatr’ i Davida fa Saoly namorona sain-dratsy hamelezana azy; dia hoy izy tamin’ i Abiatara mpisorona: Ento etỳ ny efoda.
10 And David says, “YHWH, God of Israel, Your servant has certainly heard that Saul is seeking to come to Keilah, to destroy the city on my account.
Dia hoy Davida: Ry Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, efa ren’ ny mpanomponao tokoa fa Saoly mitady hankatỳ Keila mba handrava ny tanana noho ny amiko.
11 Do the possessors of Keilah shut me up into his hand? Does Saul come down as Your servant has heard? YHWH, God of Israel, please declare [it] to Your servant.” And YHWH says, “He comes down.”
Ka moa ny mponina etỳ Keila hanolotra ahy ho eo an-tànany va? Hidina etỳ va Saoly toy ny efa ren’ ny mpanomponao? Ry Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely ô, mifona aminao aho, ambarao amin’ ny mpanomponao. Ary hoy Jehovah: Hidina izy.
12 And David says, “Do the possessors of Keilah shut up me and my men into the hand of Saul?” And YHWH says, “They shut [you] up.”
Dia hoy Davida: Ny mponina etỳ Keila hanolotra ahy sy ny oloko ho eo an-tànan’ i Saoly va? Ary hoy Jehovah Hanolotra anao izy.
13 And David rises—and his men—about six hundred men, and they go out from Keilah, and go up and down where they go up and down; and it has been declared to Saul that David has escaped from Keilah, and he ceases to go out.
Ary dia niainga Davida sy ny olony tokony ho enin-jato lahy ka niala tao Keila ary nandeha tamin’ izay azony naleha. Ary nolazaina tamin’ i Saoly fa efa nandositra niala tao Keila Davida, dia nijanona tsy nandeha izy.
14 And David abides in the wilderness, in fortresses, and abides in the hill-country, in the wilderness of Ziph; and Saul seeks him [for] all the days, and God has not given him into his hand.
Ary Davida nitoetra tany an-efitra tao amin’ ny batery fiarovana sy nitoetra tany amin’ ny tany havoana tany an-efitr’ i Zifa. Ary Saoly nitady azy isan’ andro, fa Andriamanitra tsy nanolotra azy ho eo an-tànany.
15 And David sees that Saul has come out to seek his life, and David [is] in the wilderness of Ziph, in a forest.
Ary hitan’ i Davida fa Saoly nivoaka hitady ny ainy; fa Davida dia tany an-efitr’ i Zifa tany anaty ala.
16 And Jonathan son of Saul rises, and goes to David [in the] forest, and strengthens his hand in God,
Ary Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, niainga, dia nankany amin’ i Davida tany an’ ala ka nampahery ny tànany tamin’ Andriamanitra.
17 and says to him, “Do not fear, for the hand of my father Saul does not find you, and you reign over Israel, and I am to you for second, and also so knows my father Saul.”
Ary hoy izy tamin’ i Davida: Aza matahotra, fa tsy hahazo anao ny tànan’ i Saoly raiko; fa ianao no ho mpanjaka amin’ ny Isiraely, ary izaho no hanarakaraka anao, ary fantatr’ i Saoly raiko koa izany.
18 And both of them make a covenant before YHWH; and David abides in the forest, and Jonathan has gone to his house.
Ary nanao fanekena teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy roa lahy; ary Davida dia nitoetra tany an’ ala, fa Jonatana kosa nankany an-tranony.
19 And the Ziphites go up to Saul at Gibeah, saying, “Is David not hiding himself with us in fortresses, in the forest, in the height of Hachilah, which [is] on the south of the desolate place?
Ary niakatra nankany amin’ i Saoly tany Gibea ny Zifita ka nanao hoe: Tsy miery any aminay ao amin’ ny batery fiarovana any an’ ala, any amin’ ny havoana Hakila, izay atsimon’ ny efitra, va Davida?
20 And now, by all the desire of your soul, O king, to come down, come down, and ours [is] to shut him up into the hand of the king.”
Koa ankehitriny, ry mpanjaka, araka ny fanirian’ ny fonao hidina, dia midìna ianao, fa azonay hatolotra eo an-tànan’ ny mpanjaka izy.
21 And Saul says, “Blessed [are] you of YHWH, for you have pity on me;
Ary hoy Saoly: Hotahin’ i Jehovah anie ianareo; fa ianareo namindra fo tamiko.
22 now go prepare yet, and know and see his place where his foot is; who has seen him there? For [one] has said to me, He is very cunning.
Masìna ianareo, mandehana, hevero indray, ka tsongoy tsara ny diany, ary fantaro izay nahita azy tany; fa manao saina lalina dia lalina, hono, izy.
23 And see and know of all the hiding places where he hides himself, and you have turned back prepared to me, and I have gone with you, and it has been, if he is in the land, that I have searched him out through all the thousands of Judah.”
Koa izahao sy fantaro tsara ny fierena rehetra izay iereny, dia miverena etỳ amiko indray hilaza marimarina, ary izaho dia hiaraka aminareo; koa raha mitoetra amin’ ny tany izy, dia hotadiaviko eran’ ny arivon’ i Joda rehetra.
24 And they rise and go to Ziph before Saul, and David and his men [are] in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain, at the south of the desolate place.
Dia niainga nankany Zifa ireo hialoha an’ i Saoly; fa Davida sy ny olony dia tany amin’ ny efitr’ i Maona, tamin’ ny tani-hay atsimon’ ny efitra.
25 And Saul and his men go to seek, and they declare [it] to David, and he goes down the rock, and abides in the wilderness of Maon; and Saul hears, and pursues after David [to] the wilderness of Maon.
Ary nandeha Saoly sy ny mpanompony hitady azy. Ary nolazaina tamin’ i Davida izany, ka dia nidina tany amin’ ny harambato izy ka nitoetra tany an-efitr’ i Maona. Ary nony ren’ i Saoly izany, dia nanenjika an’ i Davida tany an-efitr’ i Maona izy.
26 And Saul goes on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain, and David is hurried to go from the face of Saul, and Saul and his men are surrounding David and his men, to catch them.
Ary Saoly nandeha tamin’ ny ilan’ ny tendrombohitra iray, fa Davida sy ny olony tamin’ ny ilany kosa; ary niezaka mafy handositra Davida noho ny tahony an’ i Saoly; fa Saoly sy ny olony saiky nahodidina an’ i Davida sy ny olony hisambotra azy.
27 And a messenger has come to Saul, saying, “Hurry, and come, for the Philistines have pushed against the land.”
Dia nisy iraka tonga tao amin’ i Saoly nanao hoe: Avia haingana ianao, fa ny Filistina efa manafika ny tany.
28 And Saul turns back from pursuing after David, and goes to meet the Philistines, therefore they have called that place “The Rock of Divisions.”
Dia niverina Saoly tamin’ ny nanenjehany an’ i Davida ary nandeha niady tamin’ ny Filistina; ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany dia nataony hoe: Sela-hamalekota.
29 And David goes up there, and abides in fortresses [at] En-gedi.
Ary Davida niakatra niala teo ka nitoetra tao amin’ ny batery fiarovana tany En-jedy.
