1 Samuel 19
1 Then spake Saul unto Jonathan his son, and unto all his servants, that they should put David to death;
Saul el fahk nu sel Jonathan, wen natul, ac nu sin mwet pwapa lal nukewa lah el akoo elan unilya David. Tusruktu, Jonathan el arulana lungse David,
2 but, Jonathan, Saul’s son, delighted in David, exceedingly, —so Jonathan told David, saying, Saul, my father, is seeking to put thee to death, —now, therefore, take heed to thyself I pray thee, in the morning, and abide thou in concealment, and hide thyself;
na pa el fahkang nu sel David, “Papa tumuk el akoo elan unikomi. Nga kwafe sum tuh kom in arulana taran kom lututang. Som wikla ke sie acn lukma ac mutana we.
3 and, I, will come out and stand beside my father, in the field where, thou, art, and, I, will speak of thee unto my father, —and, if I see aught, I will tell thee.
Nga ac fah som tu sisken papa tumuk ke ima se kom wikwik we an, ac nga fah sramsram nu sel keim. Fin oasr ma kalem, nga tufah fahk nu sum.”
4 So then Jonathan spake of David things that were good, unto Saul his father, —and said unto him—May the king not sin against his servant—against David; for he hath not sinned against, thee, nay, indeed, his doings have been good to theeward exceedingly.
Jonathan el kaksakunul David nu sel Saul ac fahk, “Lela tokosra elan tia oru kutena ma koluk nu sel David, mwet kulansap lom, mweyen el soenna oru ma koluk nu sum. Ma nukewa el oru mwe kasru yohk nu sum.
5 And, when he put his life in his hand, and smote the Philistine, and Yahweh wrought a great victory for all Israel, thou sawest, and didst rejoice. Wherefore, then, shouldst thou sin against innocent blood by putting David to death, without cause?
El pilesrala moul lal ke el tuh unilya Goliath, ac LEUM GOD El sang kutangla lulap nu sin Israel. Ke kom liye ah, kom engan. Na efu ku kom lungsum in oru ma koluk nu sin mwet se inge su wangin mwatal, ac unilya ke wangin sripa?”
6 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan, —and Saul sware, By the life of Yahweh, he shall not be put to death!
Saul el auliyak ke sripen ma Jonathan el fahk ah, ac el oru sie wulela ku Inen LEUM GOD lah el ac fah tia unilya David.
7 And Jonathan called for David, and Jonathan told him all these things, —and Jonathan brought in David unto Saul, and so he was in his presence, as aforetime.
Na Jonathan el pangnolma David ac fahkang ma nukewa nu sel. Na el usalla David nu yorol Saul, ac David el kulansap nu sel Saul oana meet ah.
8 But, when the war again brake out, —and David went forth and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great smiting, and they fled before him,
Mwet Philistia elos sifil tuku mweun. David el tuyak ac lainulos ac kutangulosla, ac elos kaing.
9 then came there a sad spirit of Yahweh unto Saul, he being in his house, seated, with his spear in his hand, —while, David, played with his hand,
Sie len ah ngun koluk se sin LEUM GOD sifil sikyang nu sel Saul. El muta in lohm sel, ac osra soko oan inpaol. David el muta yorol ac srital ke harp natul.
10 Saul sought to smite David with the spear, even to the wall, but he slipped away from before Saul, who smote the spear into the wall, —whereas, David, fled and escaped, that night.
Saul el srike elan faksulang David nu pesinka uh ke osra soko ah. Tuh David el iwalla, ac osra soko ah kasiki na nu pesinka ah. Na David el illa ac kaingla.
11 And Saul sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to put him to death, in the morning! And Michal his wife told David, saying, If thou do not deliver thyself to-night, to-morrow, art thou to be put to death.
In fong sacna, Saul el supwala kutu mwet soan nu lohm sel David, elos in unilya ke lenelik. Michal, mutan kial David, el sensenkakinul ac fahk, “Kom fin tia kaingla ofong, na lutu kom ac anwuki.”
12 So Michal let down David, through the window, and he departed and fled, and escaped.
Michal el koella David ke winto se, ac el kaingla.
13 And Michal took the household god, and put it in the bed, and, a fly-net of goat’s-hair, put she at its head, —and covered it with the clothes.
Na Michal el eis sie ma sruloala ac filiya fin bed kial David ah, ac sang sie ilul ma orek ke unen nani ac filiya ke sifa ah, na el sang kaot se afinya.
14 And, when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said—He is, sick.
Ke mwet lal Saul tuku in eisal David, Michal el fahk nu selos mu David el mas.
15 So Saul sent messengers to see David, saying, —Bring him up in the bed unto me, that I may put him to death.
Na Saul el sifil folokunulosla tuh elos in sifacna liyal David ke mutalos, ac el sapkin nu selos, “Usalu na fin bed kial an, ac nga fah unilya.”
16 And, when the messengers entered, lo! the household god in the bed, —with a fly-net of goat’s-hair at its head.
Na elos utyak nu in lohm sel David ac liye tuh na ma sruloala se pa oan fin bed sac, ac ilul se ma orek ke unen nani oan ke sifa ah.
17 And Saul said unto Michal—Wherefore, in this way, hast thou deceived me, and let go mine enemy, that he hath escaped? Then said Michal unto Saul, He, himself, said unto me—Let me go, wherefore should I put thee to death?
Saul el siyuk sel Michal, “Efu ku kom kiapweyu ouinge, pwanang mwet lokoalok luk kaingla?” Michal el topuk, “El fahk mu el ac uniyuwi nga fin tia kasrel elan kaingla.”
18 So, David, fled, and escaped, and came in unto Samuel in Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him, —and he and Samuel departed, and dwelt in Naioth.
David el kaingla nu yorol Samuel in acn Ramah, ac fahkang ma nukewa ma Saul el oru nu sel. Na David ac Samuel som nu Naioth ac muta we.
19 And it was told Saul, saying, —Lo! David, is in Naioth, in Ramah.
Saul el lohngak lah David el oasr Naioth in Ramah,
20 So Saul sent messengers to take David, but, when they saw the assembly of prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, then came the Spirit of God upon the messengers of Saul, and, they also, were, moved to prophesy.
na el supwala kutu mwet in som ac sruokilya David. Na elos liye un mwet palu tacn ac sasa, ac Samuel el kololos. Na ngun lun God tuku ke ku nu fin mwet lal Saul inge, na elos wi pac tacn ac sasa.
21 And, when they told Saul, and he sent other messengers, then were, they also, moved to prophesy. And, when Saul again sent messengers a third time, then were, they also, moved to prophesy.
Ke Saul el lohngak lah ouinge, na el sifil supwala kutu mwet lal. Ke mwet inge elos tuku, elos wi pac tacn ac sasa. Na Saul el sifilpa supwala fwil se aktolu, ac elos oru oapana.
22 Then went, he also himself, to Ramah, and came in as far as the well of the threshing-floor which is in Sephi, and asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said—Lo! in Naioth, in Ramah.
Na Saul sifacna el mukuiyak in som nu Ramah. Ke el sun lufin kof lulap in acn Secu, el siyuk lah pia acn se Samuel ac David muta we. Fwackyang nu sel mu eltal oasr Naioth.
23 And, when he departed from thence towards Naioth in Ramah, then came upon, him also, the Spirit of God, and he went on and on, and was moved to prophesy, until he entered Naioth in Ramah.
Ke el fahsr in som nu Naioth, ngun lun God tuku ke ku nu facl, ac el fahsr tacn ac sasa nwe ke na el sun acn Naioth.
24 And, even he, stripped off his upper garments, and, even he, was moved to prophesy before Samuel, and lay prostrate, disrobed, all that day, and all the night. For this cause, do they say, Is, even Saul, among the prophets?
El sarukla nuknuk lal ac tacn ac sasa ye mutal Samuel, ac el koflufolla oan in len sac nufon ac fong sac nufon. (Pa inge mutaweyen soakas se fahk mu, “Mea pwaye lah Saul el wela mwet palu?”)
