< 1 Samuel 29 >
1 And the Philistines gather all their camps to Aphek, and Israel is encamping at a fountain which [is] in Jezreel,
Jo-Filistia nochoko jolwenjgi duto Afek, to jo-Israel to nojot but soko man Jezreel.
2 and the princes of the Philistines are passing on by hundreds, and by thousands, and David and his men are passing on in the rear with Achish.
Kane jotend Filistia wuotho dhi kaachiel gi jolwenjgi mane ochan e migepe mag miche gi alufe, Daudi gi joge kod Akish bende ne wuotho kaluwo bangʼ-gi.
3 And the heads of the Philistines say, “What [are] these Hebrews?” And Achish says to the heads of the Philistines, “Is this not David, servant of Saul king of Israel, who has been with me these days or these years, and I have not found anything in him [wrong] from the day of his falling away until this day?”
To jotend lweny mag jo-Filistia nopenjo niya, “Jo-Hibraniagi to timo angʼo ka?” Akish nodwoko niya, “Ma, donge en Daudi, mane jatelo mar Saulo ma ruodh Israel? Osedak koda mokadho higa, to chakre chiengʼ mane oweyo Saulo nyaka chil kawuono, pok aneno rach moro kuome.”
4 And the heads of the Philistines are angry against him, and the heads of the Philistines say to him, “Send back the man, and he turns back to his place to where you have appointed him, and does not go down with us into battle, and is not for an adversary to us in battle; and with what does this one reconcile himself to his lord—is it not with the heads of those men?
To jotend lweny mag jo-Filistia nokecho kode ma giwacho niya, “Riemb ngʼatni odogi mondo odog kama ne imiye. Ok onego odhi kodwa e lweny, nikech e kinde ma lweny dhi nyime onyalo lokore kodwa. Donge mano e yo monyalo morogo ruodhe konego jowa moko?
5 Is this not David, of whom they answer in choruses, saying, Saul has struck among his thousands, and David among his myriads?”
Ma donge e Daudi mane giwero e miendgi niya, “‘Saulo osenego ji alufu to Daudi osenego ji alufe kod alufe?’”
6 And Achish calls to David and says to him, “YHWH lives, surely you [are] upright, and good in my eyes is your going out, and your coming in with me in the camp, for I have not found evil in you from the day of your coming to me until this day; but you are not good in the eyes of the princes;
Omiyo Akish noluongo Daudi mowachone niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, ni isebedo ngʼat migeno kendo daher mondo ibed achiel kuom jolweny maga. Chakre chiengʼ mane ibiroe ira nyaka chil kawuono, pok aneno ketho moro kuomi, kata kamano jotend jo-Filistia ok oyie kodi.
7 and now, return, and go in peace, and you do no evil in the eyes of the princes of the Philistines.”
Omiyo wuok kae kendo idog gi kwe, kik itim gima diwangʼ ii jotend jo-Filistia.”
8 And David says to Achish, “But what have I done? And what have you found in your servant from the day that I have been before you until this day—that I do not go in and have fought against the enemies of my lord the king?”
Daudi nopenjo niya, “To angʼo masetimo? Rach mane miyudo kuom jatichni nyaka chakre chiengʼ mane abiroe nyaka chil kawuono? Angʼo mamona kedo gi wasik ruoth ma ruodha?”
9 And Achish answers and says to David, “I have known that you [are] good in my eyes as a messenger of God; only, the princes of the Philistines have said, He does not go up with us into battle;
Akish nodwoke niya, “Angʼeyo ni isebet ka iber e wangʼa mana ka malaika mar Nyasaye; to kata kamano jotend jolweny mag jo-Filistia osewacho ni, ‘Kik odhi kodwa e lweny.’
10 and now, rise early in the morning—and the servants of your lord who have come with you. When you have risen early in the morning, and have light, then go.”
Koro chiew gokinyi in kaachiel gi jotich ruodhi mane obiro kodi mondo umond udhi ka piny yawore.”
11 And David rises early, he and his men, to go in the morning, to return to the land of the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone up to Jezreel.
Omiyo Daudi kod joge nochiewo gokinyi mangʼich ma gidok e piny jo-Filistia, ka jo-Filistia to dhi Jezreel.
