< 1 Samuel 20 >

1 Then David fled from the dwellings at Ramah, and came before Jonathan and said, "What have I done? What is my iniquity? What is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"
David el kaingla liki acn Naioth in Ramah ac som nu yorol Jonathan. El siyuk sel Jonathan, “Ku mea nga oru? Ma koluk fuka nga orala? Ya oasr ma nga oru in lain papa tomom pwanang el suk elan uniyuwi?”
2 He said to him, "Far from it; you shall not die. Look, my father does nothing either great or small, but that he discloses it to me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so."
Jonathan el topuk ac fahk, “Ac tia ouinge! Kom fah tia misa! Ma nukewa papa tumuk el oru el muta fahk nu sik, ma srisrik nu ke ma yohk, na pa el tia ku in okanla ma se inge likiyu. Tiana ku in ouinge!”
3 And David answered and said, "Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, 'Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved:' but truly as YHWH lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."
Ac David el fahk, “Papa tomom el etu na lupan lungse lom nu sik, na pa el sulela elan tia fahk nu sum ma el akoo in oru inge, mweyen el etu lah kom ac arulana toasr kac. Nga fulahk nu sum ke Inen LEUM GOD moul lah kutu srisrik na ngan misa!”
4 Then Jonathan said to David, "Whatever your soul desires, I will do for you."
Jonathan el fahk, “Kutena ma kom lungse nga in oru, nga ac oru.”
5 So David said to Jonathan, "Look, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. Instead, let me go so that I may hide myself in the field until evening.
Na David el fahk, “Kufwen Malem Sasu pa ac orek lutu, na ac fal nga in muta yurin tokosra ke pacl in mongo. Tusruktu fin wo sum, nga ac som wikla inimae nwe ke eku in ulela.
6 If your father missed me at all, then say, 'David urgently requested of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city, for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family.'
Papa tomom el fin akilen lah nga wangin ke tepu lal an, kom fah fahk nu sel mu nga tuh kwafe sum nga in sulaklak som nu acn sik uh Bethlehem, mweyen pa inge pacl se sou luk nufon elos orek kisa ke yac se inge.
7 If he says, 'It is well;' your servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, then know that evil is determined by him.
Na el fin fahk mu ‘Wona,’ na wangin ma nga ac fosrnga kac. A el fin kasrkusrak, na kom fah etu na lah oasr ma upa el akoo in oru nu sik.
8 Therefore deal kindly with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of YHWH with you: but if there is iniquity in me, kill me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?"
Nga siyuk kom in nunak munas ac sruokyana wulela mutal kom tuh oru inmasrlok kom. Tusruktu fin oasr mwetik, na kom sifacna uniyuwi. Mwe mea kom in usyula nu yurin papa tomom in tuh anwuki nga?”
9 Jonathan said, "Far be it from you; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then wouldn't I tell you that?"
Jonathan el fahk, “Nimet kom nunak ouingan! Nga funu etu na pwaye lah papa tumuk el akoo in oru ma upa nu sum, ya nga ku in tia fahk nu sum?”
10 Then David said to Jonathan, "Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?"
Na David el siyuk, “Papa tomom el fin kasrkusrak topuk kom, na su ac fahkma nu sik?”
11 Jonathan said to David, "Come, and let us go out into the field." They both went out into the field.
Na Jonathan el fahk, “Fahsru kut som nu inimae.” Na eltal som,
12 Jonathan said to David, "YHWH, the God of Israel, is witness. When I have studied my father, about this time tomorrow, or the third day, look, if there is good toward David, shall I not then send to you, and disclose it to you?
ac Jonathan el fahk nu sel David, “Lela tuh LEUM GOD lun Israel Elan orek lou inmasrlosr. Ke pacl se inge lutu, oayapa ulela, nga fah kusen siyuk sin papa tumuk. Nunak lal fin wo keim, na nga a akkalemye nu sum.
13 But should it please my father to do you harm, God do so to Jonathan and more also if I do not let you know and send you away, that you may go in safety. And may YHWH be with you, as he has been with my father.
Tuh el fin nunku in akkolukye kom, lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan uniyuwi nga fin tia akkalemye nu sum tuh kom in ku in kaingla. Lela LEUM GOD Elan wi kom oana ke El tuh welul papa tumuk ah.
14 And if I am still alive, deal loyally with me. But if I die,
Ac nga fin moul na, kom fah nunak munas sruokya wulela mutal lom nu sik, ac kom in pwayena nu sik. A nga fin misa,
15 do not cut off your loyalty from my house forever. And when YHWH cuts off the enemies of David, each one from the face of the earth,
na kom in akkalemye kulang lom nu sin sou luk nwe tok. Ac LEUM GOD El fin kunausla mwet lokoalok lom nukewa,
16 if the name of Jonathan be cut off from the house of David, then may YHWH require it at the hand of the enemies of David."
lela tuh wulela se inmasrloktal in tiana musalla. Fin musalla, LEUM GOD El ac fah kai kom.”
17 And Jonathan swore to David again, because he loved him, for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
Na Jonathan el sifilpa sap David elan wulela mu el ac lungse na el, mweyen Jonathan el lungse na pwaye David oana ke el lungse el sifacna.
18 Then Jonathan said, "Tomorrow is the new moon: and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.
Ac Jonathan el fahk nu sel David, “Kalem lah kom fin wangin liki tepu in mongo lutu, ac fah akilenyuk, mweyen Kufwen Malem Sasu lutu.
19 On the third day you should go down quickly, and come to the place where you hid yourself when this started, and stay by that mound.
Ac ulela kom fin wangin pac, ac arulana akilenyuk lah kom wangin. Ke ma inge, wona kom in sifil som wikla acn se na ma kom tuh wikla we meet ah, tukun yol in eot sac.
20 And as for me, on the third day I will shoot arrows to its side, aiming it toward a target.
Na nga fah pusrkaot sukan pisr tolkwe nu ke yol in eot sac, in mu nga pisr in akoalel.
21 Look, I will send the boy, saying, 'Go, find the arrows.' If I tell the boy, 'Look, the arrow is on this side of you. Take it;' then come; for there is peace to you and no hurt, as YHWH lives.
Na nga ac supwaot sie mwet kulansap luk in fahsrot suk. Nga fin fahk nu sel, ‘Liye, sukan pisr uh oan layenu liki kom. Fahla use,’ kalmac pa ma nukewa wo, ac kom ku in ilme. Nga fulahk ke LEUM GOD moul lah wangin mwe fosrnga nu sum.
22 But if I say this to the boy, 'Look, the arrow is beyond you;' then go your way; for YHWH has sent you away.
A nga fin fahk nu sin mwet kulansap luk mu, ‘Sukan pisr uh oan layeno liki kom,’ na kom fah kaing, mweyen LEUM GOD pa supwekom inge.
23 Concerning the matter which you and I have spoken of, look, YHWH is a witness between you and me forever."
Ac nu ke wulela se kital orala inmasrloktal uh, LEUM GOD El ac fah oru tuh in oan ma pahtpat.”
24 So David hid himself in the field. And when the new moon had come, the king sat at the table to eat.
Na David el som wikla inimae. Ke pacl in Kufwen Malem Sasu, Tokosra Saul el tuku nu ke tepu uh
25 The king sat on his seat, as at other times, even on the seat by the wall; and Jonathan sat opposite, and Abner sat by Saul's side: but David's place was empty.
ac el muta ke nien muta lal sisken pesinka uh. Abner el muta siskal, ac Jonathan el muta ke la tepu uh ngetang nu yoroltal. Acn in muta lal David uh oalalla.
26 Nevertheless Saul did not say anything that day: for he thought, "Something has happened to him. He is not clean. Surely he is not clean."
Wangin ma Saul el fahk kac ke len sac, mweyen el nunku mu sahp oasr sripa se sikyak ac David el tia nasnas fal nu ke alu lalos.
27 It happened on the next day after the new moon, the second day, that David's place was empty. Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why hasn't the son of Jesse come to the table, either yesterday or today?"
Ke len se akluo ah, len se tukun Kufwen Malem Sasu, nien muta lal David ke tepu uh srakna oalal, ac Saul el siyuk sel Jonathan, “Efu ku David el tia tuku nu ke tepu uh ekea, sifilpa misenge?”
28 Jonathan answered Saul, and said, "David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem.
Jonathan el topuk ac fahk, “El tuh kwafe sik ngan fuhlella elan som nu Bethlehem.
29 He said, 'Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city. And as for me, my brothers have ordered me to be there. Now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table."
El fahk ouinge nu sik, ‘Nunak munas filiyula ngan som, tuh sou luk elos orek kisa ke acn sesr uh, ac tamulel luk el sap nga in som welulos. Na pa kom fin mwet kawuk luk, filiyula nga in som nu yurin sou luk.’ Pa inge sripa se sis el wangin liki nien mutal lal ke tepu lun tokosra.”
30 Then Saul's anger flared up at Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a rebellious slave girl, don't I know that you are the companion of the son of Jesse, to your own disgrace, and to the disgrace of your mother's nakedness?
Saul el foloyak sel Jonathan ac fahk nu sel, “Kom wen nutin sie mutan likkeke ac seakos! Inge nga etu na lah kom welul David lac, ac kom sifacna akmwekinye kom ac nina kiom ah!
31 For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, your kingdom will not be established. Therefore now send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die."
Mea, kom nikin lah ke lusenna moul lal David, kom ac tia ku in tokosra fin facl se inge? Fahla ingena ac usalu. El enenu na elan misa!”
32 But Jonathan answered Saul, "Why should he be put to death? What has he done?"
Ac Jonathan el siyuk, “Ku efu ku elan misa? Mea el orala?”
33 Then Saul threw his spear at him to strike him, and Jonathan realized that this evil from his father to kill David was determined.
Na Saul el kipakin osra natul ah nu kacl Jonathan in unilya, ac Jonathan el fah kalem lah Saul el nunku na pwaye elan unilya David.
34 So Jonathan sprang up from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, because his father had dishonored him.
Ac Jonathan el kasrkusrak ac tuyak liki tepu ah, ac el tia mongo in len sac nufon — len se akluo ke Kufwen Malem Sasu. El arulana asor kacl David ke sripen Saul el fahk kas na upa kacl.
35 It happened in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little boy with him.
Lotutang in len tok ah, Jonathan el som nu inimae in sonol David, in oana ma eltal tuh aetuila kac. El us tulik mukul fusr se welul,
36 He said to the boy, "Run, find now the arrows which I shoot." And as the boy ran, he shot an arrow, causing it to pass beyond, toward the city.
na el fahk nu sel, “Yuwot ac suk sukan pisr nga ac pusrkaot inge.” Tulik sac kasrusr yula, ac Jonathan el pusrkala pisr soko ah alukela tulik sac.
37 When the boy had come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the youth, and said, "Isn't the arrow beyond you?"
Ke tulik sac sun acn se ma sukan pisr soko ah putati we ah, Jonathan el wowo nu sin tulik sac ac fahk, “Sukan pisr soko ah pa oemeeto!
38 Jonathan cried after the boy, "Go fast. Hurry. Do not delay." Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.
Nimet tu na insacn! Sulaklak!” Tulik sac el srukak sukan pisr soko ah, ac el use nu yurin mwet kacto lal.
39 But the boy did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
Tulik sac tiana etu lah mea kalmen ma inge. Jonathan ac David mukena pa kalem kac uh.
40 Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy, and said to him, "Go, carry them to the city."
Na Jonathan el sang kufwen mwe pisr natul nu sin tulik sac, ac sap elan us som nu in siti uh.
41 As soon as the boy was gone, David arose from beside the mound, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another, and wept one with another, and David wept the most.
Tukun tulik sac som, David el tuyak liki yol in eot se el wikwik we, ac el sikukmutunte ac faksufi pacl tolu. Na el Jonathan tukeni tung ac angokmwet sie sin sie, ac asor lal David tuh yohk liki asor lal Jonathan.
42 Then Jonathan said, "Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the name of YHWH, saying, 'YHWH shall be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants, forever.'" He arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
Ac Jonathan el fahk nu sel David, “God Elan wi kom. LEUM GOD El ac fah oru tuh kom ac fwil nutum, oayapa nga ac fwil nutik, in sruokyana wulela mutal se su nga kom orala inmasrloktal tuh in oan ma pahtpat.” Na David el som, ac Jonathan el folok nu in siti uh.
