1 Samuel 27
1 David said in his heart, "I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me except that I escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me any more in all the borders of Israel. So shall I escape out of his hand."
Dafidi sì wí ní ọkàn ara rẹ̀ pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ni ìjọ kan ni èmi yóò ti ọwọ́ Saulu ṣègbé, kò sì sí ohun tí ó yẹ mí jù kí èmi yára sá àsálà lọ sórí ilẹ̀ àwọn Filistini, yóò sú Saulu láti máa tún wa mi kiri ní gbogbo agbègbè Israẹli, èmi a sì bọ́ lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀.”
2 David arose, and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
Dafidi sì dìde, ó sì rékọjá, òun pẹ̀lú ẹgbẹ̀ta ọmọkùnrin tí o ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ sí Akiṣi, ọmọ Maoki, ọba Gati.
3 So David lived with Achish, he and his men, along with his men and their families, and David with his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail of Carmel, Nabal's widow.
Dafidi sì bá Akiṣi jókòó ní Gati, òun, àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ, olúkúlùkù wọn pẹ̀lú ará ilé rẹ̀; Dafidi pẹ̀lú àwọn aya rẹ̀ méjèèjì, Ahinoamu ará Jesreeli, àti Abigaili ará Karmeli aya Nabali.
4 Now it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath, so he no longer searched for him.
A sì sọ fún Saulu pé, Dafidi sálọ si Gati, òun kò sì tún wá á kiri mọ́.
5 David said to Achish, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?"
Dafidi sì wí fún Akiṣi pé, “Bí ó bá jẹ́ pé èmi rí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ lójú rẹ̀, jẹ́ kí wọn ó fún mi ní ibìkan nínú àwọn ìletò wọ̀nyí; èmi yóò máa gbé ibẹ̀, èéṣe tí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ yóò sì máa bá ọ gbé ní ìlú ọba.”
6 So he gave him Ziklag that day. (For that reason Ziklag has belonged to the kings of Judah to this day.)
Akiṣi sí fi Siklagi fún un ní ọjọ́ náà nítorí náà ni Siklagi fi dí ọba Juda títí ó fi dì òní yìí.
7 The number of the days that David lived in the country of the Philistines was a full year and four months.
Iye ọjọ́ tí Dafidi fi jókòó ní ìlú àwọn Filistini sì jẹ́ ọdún kan àti oṣù mẹ́rin.
8 Now David and his men went up, and made a raid on the Geshurites, and the Amalekites. And look, the land was inhabited from Telem, until you come to Shur, and on toward Egypt.
Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì gòkè lọ, wọ́n sì gbé ogun ti àwọn ará Geṣuri, àti àwọn ará Gesri, àti àwọn ará Amaleki àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ó sì tí ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà, láti ìgbà àtijọ́, bí ó ti fẹ̀ lọ sí Ṣuri títí ó fi dé ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
9 David struck the land, and saved neither man nor woman alive, and took away the sheep, and the cattle, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the clothing; and he returned, and came to Achish.
Dafidi sì kọlu ilẹ̀ náà kò sì fi ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin sílẹ̀ láààyè, ó sì kó àgùntàn, àti màlúù, àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àti ìbákasẹ, àti aṣọ, ó sì yípadà ó tọ Akiṣi wá.
10 Achish said, "Against whom have you made a raid today?" David would say, "Against the Negev of Judah," or "Against the Negev of Jerahmeel," or "Against the Negev of the Kenizzites."
Akiṣi sì bi í pé, “Níbo ni ẹ̀yin gbé rìn sí lónìí?” Dafidi sì dáhùn pé, “Sí ìhà gúúsù ti Juda ni, tàbí sí ìhà gúúsù ti Jerahmeeli,” tàbí “Sí ìhà gúúsù ti àwọn ará Keni.”
11 And neither man nor woman would he leave alive to be brought to Gath, thinking, "Otherwise they will tell about us, saying, 'This is what David did,'" and this has been his practice all the time he lived in the country of the Philistines.
Dafidi kò sì dá ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin sí láààyè, láti mú ìròyìn wá sí Gati, wí pé, “Ki wọn máa bá à sọ ọ̀rọ̀ wa níbẹ̀, pé, ‘Báyìí ni Dafidi ṣe,’” àti bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìṣe rẹ̀, yóò sì rí ni gbogbo ọjọ́ ti yóò fi jókòó ni ìlú àwọn Filistini.
12 Achish believed David, saying, "He has made his people Israel utterly to abhor him. Therefore he shall be my servant forever."
Akiṣi sì gba ti Dafidi gbọ́, wí pé, “Òun ti mú kí Israẹli àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ kórìíra rẹ̀ pátápátá, yóò si jẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ mi títí láé.”
