1 Samuel 30
1 And it came to pass, when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that, the Amalekites, had made a raid into the South, and into Ziklag, and had smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire;
Mgbe Devid na ndị ikom ya rutere obodo Ziklag nʼụbọchị nke atọ, ha hụrụ na ndị Amalek abịala wakporo bi nʼakụkụ ndịda Negev na Ziklag. Ha buru agha megide Ziklag, gbaa obodo ahụ ọkụ,
2 and had taken captive the women and all who were therein, from small even unto great, they had not put one to death, —but had driven them forth, and gone their way.
dọtakwa ndị inyom na ndị niile bi nʼime ya nʼagha, ma okenye ma ụmụntakịrị. Ha egbughị ha egbu, kama ha buuru ha laa.
3 So, when David and his men came to the city, lo! it was burnt with fire, —and, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, had been taken captive.
Mgbe Devid na ndị ikom ya ruru Ziklag, ha hụrụ na-esuola ya ọkụ, dọkpụrụ ndị inyom ha, na ụmụ ndị ikom na ndị inyom nʼagha.
4 Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice, and wept, —until they had no more strength to weep.
Ya mere, Devid na ndị ikom ya kwara akwa ruo mgbe ike akwa gwụrụ ha.
5 And, the two wives of David, had been taken captive, —Ahinoam, the Jezreelitess, and Abigail, wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Ndị inyom abụọ Devid, Ahinoam onye Jezril na Abigel, nwunye ochie Nebal onye Kamel, sokwa na ndị a dọtara nʼagha ahụ.
6 And David was in sore distress, for the people had spoken of stoning him, because the souls of all the people were embittered, every man for his own sons and for his own daughters, —but David emboldened himself in Yahweh his God.
Ihe a wetaara Devid oke nsogbu, nʼihi na ndị ikom ya nọ na-ekwu okwu iji nkume tugbuo ya; ha niile nọ nʼobi ilu nʼihi ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ndị inyom. Ma Devid chọtara ike nʼime Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya.
7 Then said David to Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, Do bring near me, I pray thee, the ephod. So Abiathar brought near the ephod, unto David.
Devid sịrị Abịata, bụ onye nchụaja, nwa Ahimelek, “Chịtara m efọọd ahụ.” Ya mere, Abịata chịtara ya nye ya
8 And David enquired of Yahweh, saying, Shall I pursue this troop? shall I overtake it? And he said unto him: Pursue, for thou shalt, overtake, and thou shalt, rescue.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid jụrụ Onyenwe anyị ase sị, “Ọ bụ m chụso ndị a na-apụnara ndị mmadụ ihe? Ọ bụrụ na m achụso ha, aga m ejide ha?” Onyenwe anyị zara, “E, chụso ha ọsọ, ị ga-achụkwute ha, ma nataghachikwa ihe niile ha were.”
9 So David went, he, and the six hundred men, who were with him, and they came in as far as the ravine of Besor, —where, they who had to be left behind, stayed.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid na narị ndị agha isii ya bịarutere nʼọdọ mmiri Beso, ebe ha hapụrụ ụfọdụ ndị
10 But David pursued, he. and four hundred men, —but the two hundred men stayed, because they were too wearied to cross over the ravine of Besor.
narị ndị ikom abụọ nʼime ha enwekwaghị ike ịgafe ndagwurugwu Beso nʼihi ike ọgwụgwụ, ma Devid na narị anọ ndị ọzọ chụsoro ha.
11 And they found an Egyptian in the field, and took him unto David, —and gave him food, and he did eat, and they gave him water to drink;
Ha hụrụ otu nwokorobịa onye Ijipt nʼọhịa, duuru ya bịakwute Devid. Ha nyere ya mmiri ka ọ ṅụọ, nyekwa ya nri ka o rie.
12 and they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two cakes of raisins, and, when he had eaten, his spirit came back unto him, —for he had neither eaten food, nor drunk water, three days and three nights.
Ihe ha nyere ya bụ achịcha fiig, na ụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị abụọ nke a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ. Mgbe o richara ha, o nweghachiri onwe ya, nʼihi na o ribeghị nri ọbụla, maọbụ ṅụọ mmiri ọbụla ụbọchị atọ, ehihie na nʼabalị.
13 Then David said to him—Whose art thou? and whence art thou? And he said, A young man of Egypt, am I, servant to an Amalekite, and my lord left me behind, because I fell sick, three days ago.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid jụrụ ya sị, “Ị bụ onye? Ebeekwa ka i si bịa?” Ọ zara Devid sị, “Abụ m onye Ijipt, bụrụkwa ohu onye Amalek. Onyenwe m hapụrụ m nʼebe a abalị atọ gara aga nʼihi na ahụ adịghị m ike.
14 As for us, we invaded the South of the Cherithites, and against that which pertaineth unto Judah, and against the South of Caleb, —and, Ziklag, burned we with fire.
Anyị si obodo ebe anyị gara lụọ agha na-alọghachi mgbe ha hapụrụ m nʼebe a. Anyị gara lụgbuo obodo ndị Keret, nke dị nʼime Negeb, na obodo dị na ndịda ala Juda na ala Kaleb. Anyị gbakwara obodo Ziklag ọkụ.”
15 And David said unto him, Wilt thou bring me down unto this troop? And he said—Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not put me to death, neither wilt thou surrender me into the hand of my lord, and I will bring thee down unto this troop.
Devid jụrụ ya sị, “I nwere ike duru m gaa ebe ha nọ.” Nwokorobịa ahụ zara ya sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị ga-aṅụ iyi nʼaha Chineke na ị gaghị egbu m maọbụ were m nyeghachi onyenwe m, aga m eduru gị gaa ebe ha nọ.”
16 So he brought him down, and lo! they were left to themselves over the face of all the land, —eating, and drinking, and dancing around, for all the great spoil which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
O duuru ha jee nʼebe ndị Amalek nọ. Mgbe ha ruru ebe ahụ, ha hụrụ ha ebe ha tụsara onwe ha nʼala na-eri na-aṅụ, na-etekwa egwu ọṅụ, nʼihi ihe dị ukwuu ha kwatara nʼagha site nʼala ndị Filistia, na nʼala Juda.
17 And David smote them, from the closing twilight even unto the evening of the next day, —and there escaped not of them a man, save four hundred young men who rode upon camels, and fled.
Devid na ndị agha ya bịakwasịrị ha na mberede gbuo ha site nʼabalị ahụ ruo anyasị echi ya. Ọ dịkwaghị otu nwoke nʼime ha fọdụrụ ndụ ma ọ bụghị narị ndị ikom anọ makwasịrị nʼelu ịnyịnya kamel ha gbalaga.
18 And David rescued all whom the Amalekites had taken, —his two wives also, did David rescue;
Devid nwetaghachiri ihe niile ndị Amalek kwatara nʼagha, tinyere ndị inyom ya abụọ.
19 and there was nothing missing to them—whether small or great, whether spoil, or sons or daughters, or, any thing which they had taken unto themselves, —the whole, did David recover.
O nweghị ihe furu efu, ma nke ukwu ma nke nta, ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom, ihe a kwatara nʼagha, maọbụ ihe ọbụla ọzọ ndị Amalek dọtara nʼagha. Devid nwetaghachiri ihe niile.
20 And David took all the flocks and the herds, —they drave them before those other cattle, and they said, This, is David’s spoil.
Ọzọkwa, Devid chịkọtara igwe ehi na igwe ewu na atụrụ. Ndị ikom ya chịịrị ha, tinyere anụ ụlọ ndị ọzọ, na-aga, na-asị, “Ndị a bụ ihe Devid kwatara nʼagha.”
21 And David came unto the two hundred men, who had been too wearied to follow David, and whom they had suffered to remain at the ravine of Besor, —and they came forth to meet David, and to meet the people who were with him, and when David came near unto the people, they enquired of his success.
Emesịa, Devid bịarutere ebe narị ndị ikom abụọ ndị ahụ nọ na Ndagwurugwu Beso. Ndị a bụ ndị ahụ na-enweghị ike iso Devid nʼihi na ike gwụrụ ha. Ha pụtara zute Devid na ndị so ya. Mgbe Devid na ndị ikom ya bịara ha nso, ọ jụrụ ha otu ha mere.
22 Then responded every man who was bad and abandoned, from among the men who had been with David, and said—Because they went not with me there shall not be given them of the spoil that we have rescued, —save, to every man, his wife and his children, let them put them forth, then, and go.
Ma ndị ikom ọjọọ ahụ niile, na ndị okwu na ụka nọ nʼetiti ndị na-eso Devid sịrị, “Nʼihi na ndị a esoghị anyị jee, ya mere ha agaghị eso anyị keta ihe ndị a anyị kwatara nʼagha. Nyeghachi ha naanị nwunye ha na ụmụ ha; gwakwa ha ka ha laa.”
23 Then said David, Ye shall not do so, my brethren, —with that which Yahweh hath given to us, who hath preserved us, and delivered the troop that came against us into our hand.
Ma Devid sịrị, “Mba, ụmụnna m, unu ekwesighị isi otu a kee ihe ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere anyị. O chebere anyị, nyefee nʼaka anyị ndị agha ahụ niile bịara imegide anyị.
24 Who indeed, could hearken unto you, in this mutter? Surely, like the share of him that went down into the battle, even, so, shall be the share of him that remained by the stores—alike, shall they share.
Unu chere na ọ dị onye ga-ege unu ntị mgbe unu na-ekwu okwu dị otu a? Anyị niile ga-eketa oke; oke ndị jere agha na ndị chebere ihe anyị ga-abụ otu.”
25 And so it came to pass, from that day forward, that he appointed it, for a statute and for a custom unto Israel, until this day.
Site nʼụbọchị ahụ, Devid mere ka nke a bụrụ iwu nye ndị Izrel niile ruo taa.
26 And, when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil, unto the elders of Judah, unto his friends, saying, —Lo! for you, a blessing, out of the spoil of the enemies of Yahweh:
Mgbe ha rutere Ziklag, Devid weere ụfọdụ ihe ha kwatara nʼagha zigara ndị okenye Juda, ndị bụ ndị enyi ya, na-asị, “Lee onyinye ewetaara unu site nʼụfọdụ nʼime ihe anyị kwatara site nʼaka ndị iro Onyenwe anyị.”
27 to them who were in Bethel, and to them who were in Ramoth of the South, and to them who were in Jattir,
O zigara ha nye ndị bi na Betel, Ramọt Negev na Jatịa,
28 and to them who were in Aroer, and to them who were in Siphmoth, and to them who were in Eshtemoa,
nyekwa ndị nọ Aroea, Sifmot, Eshtemoa
29 and to them who were in Racal, and to them who were in the cities of the Jerameelites, and to them who were in the cities of the Kenites,
na Rakal, nyekwa ndị bi nʼobodo ndị Jerameel na nke ndị Ken,
30 and to them who were in Hormah, and to them who were in Cor-ashan, and to them who were in Athach,
nyekwa ndị bi na Homa, Bo Ashan, Atak
31 and to them who were in Hebron, —and to all the places where David had been to and fro, he and his men.
na Hebrọn na ndị nọ nʼebe niile ndị ahụ ebe Devid na ndị ya wagharịrị.
