1 Samuel 22
1 David therefore departed thence, and escaped, into the cave of Adullam, —and, when his brethren and all the household of his father heard it, they went down unto him, thither.
David el kaingla liki siti Gath ac som nu ke luf se su oan apkuran nu Adullam. Ke tamulel lal ac mwet in sou lal kewa elos lohngak lah el oasr we, elos som nu yorol.
2 And there gathered themselves unto him—every one that was in distress, and every one that had a creditor, and every one embittered in soul, and he came to be over them as a prince, —and there were with him, about four hundred men.
Na mwet su muta in ongoiya, oayapa mwet soemoul sin mwet, ac mwet supwar, elos som pac nu yorol. Sahp oasr mwet angfoko ke u se inge, na David el mwet kol lalos.
3 And David departed thence, to Mizpah of Moab, —and said unto the king of Moab, I pray thee, let my father and my mother dwell with you, until that I know what God will do for me.
David el som liki acn sac ac tuku nu Mizpah in acn Moab, ac fahk nu sin tokosra we, “Nunak munas lela tuh papa tumuk ac nina kiuk in muta yurum nu ke nga konauk lah mea God El ac fah oru nu sik.”
4 So he set them before the king of Moab, —and they dwelt with him, all the days that David was in the fortress.
Na David el likiya papa tumal ac nina kial yurin tokosra lun Moab, ac eltal muta yorol ke lusenna pacl ma David el wikwik in luf sac.
5 Then said Gad the prophet unto David—Thou must not abide in the fortress, go and get thee into the land of Judah. So David departed, and entered the forest of Hereth.
Na Gad, sie mwet palu, el tuku nu yorol David ac fahk, “Nik kom muta inge. Tuyak ac fahsr nu in facl Judah.” Ke ma inge, David el som ac ilyak nu insak Hereth.
6 And, when Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him—Saul, being seated in Gibeah under the tamarisk-tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants stationed by him, —
Sie len ah Saul el muta Gibeah, ye sak tamarisk soko fin tohktok se, ac osra natul oan inpaol. Mwet kol lal nukewa tu raunella. Na fwackyang nu sel lah koneyukyak David ac mwet lal uh.
7 then said Saul unto his servants who were stationed by him—Hear, I pray you, ye Benjamites! What! even to all of you, will the son of Jesse give fields and vineyards? All of you, will he appoint to be princes of thousands, and princes of hundreds?
Ac Saul el fahk nu sin mwet lal inge, “Kowos mwet Benjamin, porongeyu! Ya kowos nunku mu David el ac sot ima in grape ac ima pac saya nu suwos nukewa, ac oru tuh kowos nukewa in mwet kol lun un mwet mweun lal?
8 That ye have conspired, all of you, against me, and there is none to uncover mine ear as to the covenanting of my son with the son of Jesse? And none from among you that taketh pity upon me, and that uncovereth mine ear [to this], —that, mine own son, hath stirred up, my servants, against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?
Ya pa ingan sripa se oru kowos pwapa in lainyu an? Wangin sie suwos tuku akkalemye nu sik lah wen nutik sifacna el asruoki nu sel David. Wanginna mwet nunku keik, ku akkalemye nu sik lah David, su sie sin mwet luk, el suk pacl lal in uniyuwi, ac wen se nutik el kasrel!”
9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite—he, being stationed near the servants of Saul—and said, —I saw the son of Jesse coming into Nob, unto Ahimelech son of Ahitub;
Doeg el wi mwet lal Saul inge tu insac, ac el fahk, “Nga tuh liyal David ke el som nu yorol Ahimelech, wen natul Ahitub, in acn Nob.
10 Then enquired he for him of Yahweh, Provisions also, gave he unto him, —and, the sword of Goliath the Philistine, gave he unto him.
Ahimelech el tuh siyuk sin LEUM GOD lah mea fal David elan oru, na el sang kutu mwe mongo nu sel David, oayapa cutlass se natul Goliath, mwet Philistia sac.”
11 Then the king sent to call Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, the priest, and all the house of his father—the priests, who were in Nob, —and they came, all of them, unto the king.
Na Tokosra Saul el sapla solalma Ahimelech, mwet tol, ac sou lal kewa, su elos mwet tol pac in Nob, ac elos tuku nu yorol.
12 And Saul said, Hear, I pray thee, thou son of Ahitub! And he said—Behold me! my lord.
Ac Saul el fahk nu sel Ahimelech, “Ahimelech, porongeyu!” Ac Ahimelech el topuk, “O Tokosra, nga pa inge.”
13 And Saul said unto him, Wherefore have ye conspired against me, thou, and the son of Jesse, —in that thou gavest him bread and a sword, and didst enquire for him of God, that he might rise up against me, that he might lie in wait, as at this day?
Ac Saul el siyuk sel, “Efu ku kom ac David pwapa in lainyu? Efu kom ku sang mwe mongo nu sel ac cutlass sac, oayapa siyuk kasru sin God kacl David? Na inge el forma lainyu, ac el tupan pacl wo lal in uniyuwi.”
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king, and said, —But who, among all thy servants, like David, is, faithful, being son-in-law to the king, and, cometh near to have audience with thee, and is, honoured in thy household?
Ahimelech el topuk, “David pa oaru emeet sin mwet pwapa lom! El wen talupom, el captain lun mwet soan lom, ac mwet nukewa inkul sum elos arulana akfulatyal.
15 Did I, that day, begin to enquire for him of God? Far from me! Let not the king impute to his servant such a thing, nor to any of the household of my father, for thy servant knoweth nothing of all this, less or more.
Aok, pwaye nga tuh siyuk kasru sin God kacl, tuh tia pacl se emeet nga oru pa inge. Ac funu ke kas se ma fahk mu nga pwapa lain kom, O Tokosra, nimet sis nu fuk, ku nu sin kutena mwet in sou luk, mweyen wanginna ma nga etu ke ma se inge!”
16 And the king said: Thou shalt, die, Ahimelech, —thou and all the household of thy father.
Ac tokosra el fahk, “Ahimelech, kom ac sou lom nukewa enenu in misa.”
17 And the king said unto the runners that were stationed by him—Turn ye round and put to death the priests of Yahweh, because, their hand also, is with David, and because they knew that he was, in flight, and unveiled not mine ear. But the servants of the king were not willing to thrust forth their hand, to fall upon the priests of Yahweh.
Na tokosra el fahk nu sin mwet mweun su tu siskal, “Uniya mwet tol lun LEUM GOD inge! Elos welul David nunak se, ac elos etu na lah David el kaingla, a elos tia fahk nu sik!” Tusruktu, mwet mweun inge elos tiana srukak paolos nu fin mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
18 Then said the king to Doeg, Turn, thou, and fall upon the priests. So Doeg the Edomite turned, and, himself, fell upon the priests, and put to death, that day, four score and five men bearing an ephod of linen;
Ke ma inge, Saul el fahk nu sel Doeg, “Kom, oneltalu!” Na Doeg el onelosla nukewa. In len sac el uniya mwet tol oalngoul limekosr su fal in nukum ephod lun mwet tol.
19 Nob also, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and sucklings, —and oxen and asses and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
Saul el oayapa sap in anwukla mwet nukewa in acn Nob, su siti lun mwet tol — mukul, mutan, tulik srisrik ac tulik fusr, cow, donkey, sheep — ma inge nukewa anwukla.
20 But there escaped one son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, whose, name, was Abiathar, —and he fled after David.
Tusruktu Abiathar, sie sin wen natul Ahimelech, el kaingla ac som welul David.
21 So Abiathar told David, —that Saul had slain the priests of Yahweh.
El fahk nu sel David lah Saul el uniya mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
22 Then said David to Abiathar—I knew, that day, when Doeg the Edomite was, there, that he would, surely tell, Saul. I, am chargeable with all the lives of the house of thy father.
David el fahk nu sel Abiathar, “Ke nga tuh liyal Doeg in len sac, nga etu na lah el ac fahkak nu sel Saul ma orek ah. Ke ma inge, misa lun mwet nukewa in sou lom, oan fuk.
23 Abide with me! do not fear, for, whoso seeketh my life, seeketh thy life, —for, in safeguard, shall thou be, with me.
Mutana yuruk ac nikmet sangeng. Saul el lungse unikuti na kewa, tuh kom fin muta yuruk, kom ac fah moul.”
