< 1 Samuel 17 >
1 And they gathered [the] Philistines armies their for battle and they were gathered Socoh which [belongs] to Judah and they encamped between Socoh and between Azekah in Ephes Dammim.
Na rĩrĩ, Afilisti nĩmoonganirie mbũtũ ciao cia mbaara, na magĩcicookanĩrĩria kũu Soko thĩinĩ wa Juda. Makĩamba hema ciao Efesi-Damimu, gatagatĩ ga Soko na Azeka.
2 And Saul and [the] man of Israel they were gathered and they encamped in [the] valley of Elah and they deployed battle to meet [the] Philistines.
Saũlũ na andũ a Isiraeli makĩũngana, makĩamba hema ciao kĩanda-inĩ kĩa Ela, makĩĩhaarĩria ũrĩa mekũrũa na Afilisti.
3 And [the] Philistines [were] standing to the mountain from this and Israel [were] standing to the mountain from this and the valley [was] between them.
Afilisti magĩikara kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩmwe, nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩikara kĩrĩa kĩngĩ, hagakĩgĩa kĩanda gatagatĩ kao.
4 And he came out [the] man of the champions from [the] camps of [the] Philistines [was] Goliath name his from Gath height his [was] six cubits and a span.
Njamba ĩmwe yetagwo Goliathũ, ũrĩa woimĩte Gathu, akiumĩra hau kambĩ-inĩ ya Afilisti. Nake aarĩ na ũraihu wa makĩria ma buti kenda.
5 And a helmet of bronze [was] on head his and body armor of scales he [was] clothed and [the] weight of the body armor [was] five thousand shekels bronze.
Eekĩrĩte ngũbia ya gĩcango mũtwe, na akehumba nguo ya mbaara ya gĩcango ĩrĩ na ũritũ wa cekeri ngiri ithano;
6 And leg armor of bronze [was] on feet his and a javelin of bronze [was] between shoulders his.
eyohete indo cia kũgitĩra mũthiimo cia gĩcango, na agacuuria kĩberethi gĩa gĩcango gatagatĩ ga ciande ciake.
7 (And [the] wood of *Q(K)*) spear his [was] like a beam of weavers and [the] blade of spear his [was] six hundred shekels iron and [the] bearer of the body shield [was] walking before him.
Mũtĩ wa itimũ rĩake waiganaga ta mũtĩ wa mũtumi ngoora, nakĩo kĩgera kĩa mũtwe warĩo kĩarĩ na ũritũ wa cekeri magana matandatũ. Nake mũkuui wa ngo yake akamũthiĩ mbere.
8 And he stood and he called out to [the] battle lines of Israel and he said to them why? do you come out to deploy battle ¿ not [am] I the Philistine and [are] you? servants of Saul commission for yourselves a man so he may come down to me.
Goliathũ akĩrũgama, akĩanĩrĩra kũrĩ itungati cia Isiraeli, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mũũke mwĩyaare mĩhari ya mbaara? Githĩ niĩ ndikĩrĩ Mũfilisti, na inyuĩ githĩ mũtikĩrĩ ndungata cia Saũlũ? Thuurai mũndũ ũmwe mũreke aikũrũke oke kũrĩ niĩ.
9 If he will be able to fight with me and he will strike down me and we will become of you slaves and if I I will prevail to him and I will strike down him and you will become of us slaves and you will serve us.
Angĩhota kũrũa na niĩ na anjũrage-rĩ, ithuĩ tũgũtuĩka ndungata cianyu; no ndamũtooria na ndĩmũũrage-rĩ, inyuĩ mũgũtuĩka ndungata ciitũ na mũtũtungatagĩre.”
10 And he said the Philistine I I defy [the] battle lines of Israel the day this give to me a man so let us fight together.
Ningĩ Mũfilisti ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ nĩndoogita itungati cia Isiraeli! Heei mũndũ tũrũe nake.”
11 And he heard Saul and all Israel [the] words of the Philistine these and they were dismayed and they were afraid exceedingly.
Rĩrĩa maiguire ciugo cia Mũfilisti ũcio, Saũlũ na andũ othe a Isiraeli makĩmaka, magĩĩtigĩra mũno.
12 And David [was] a son of a man an Ephrathite this from Beth-lehem Judah and name his [was] Jesse and [belonged] to him eight sons and the man in [the] days of Saul he was old he had gone among men.
Na rĩrĩ, Daudi aarĩ mũrũ wa Mũefiratha wetagwo Jesii, woimĩte Bethilehemu ya Juda. Jesii aarĩ na ariũ anana, na matukũ-inĩ ma Saũlũ aarĩ mũndũ mũkũrũ, agatindĩkanga mĩaka.
13 And they had gone [the] three [the] sons of Jesse old they had gone after Saul to battle and [the] name of - [the] three of sons his who they had gone in the battle [was] Eliab the firstborn and second his [was] Abinadab and the third [was] Shammah.
Ariũ atatũ a Jesii arĩa akũrũ nĩmathiĩte na Saũlũ mbaara-inĩ: Wa mbere eetagwo Eliabu; na wa keerĩ Abinadabu; na wa gatatũ Shama.
14 And David he [was] the young and three old they had gone after Saul.
Daudi nĩwe warĩ mũnini wao. Acio atatũ akũrũ nĩmarũmĩrĩire Saũlũ,
15 And David [was] going and [was] returning from with Saul to shepherd [the] flock of father his Beth-lehem.
no Daudi agathiiaga gwĩ Saũlũ, na agacooka nĩguo akarĩithie ngʼondu cia ithe kũu Bethilehemu.
16 And he drew near the Philistine rising early and [the] evening darkened and he took his stand forty day[s].
Ihinda rĩa matukũ mĩrongo ĩna Mũfilisti ũcio nĩoimagĩra o rũciinĩ na hwaĩ-inĩ, akarũgama akeyonithania harĩo.
17 And he said Jesse to David son his take please to brothers your [the] ephah of roasted grain this and ten bread[s] this and bring [them] quickly the camp to brothers your.
Na rĩrĩ, Jesii akĩĩra mũriũ Daudi atĩrĩ, “Oya eba ĩno ya ngano hĩhie, na mĩgate ĩno ikũmi nĩ ũndũ wa ariũ a nyũkwa, ũhiũhe ũcitware kũu kambĩ-inĩ.
18 And [the] ten [the] portions of milk these you will bring to [the] commander of the thousand and brothers your you will pay attention to welfare and pledge their you will take.
Nacio cienyũ ici ikũmi cia ngorono ũcitware kũrĩ mũnene wa gĩkundi kĩao. Ũkĩrore ũrĩa ariũ a nyũkwa matariĩ ũnjookerie ũhoro wao wa kũnyũmĩrĩria.
19 And Saul and they and every man of Israel [are] in [the] valley of Elah fighting with [the] Philistines.
Na rĩrĩ, marĩ hamwe na Saũlũ na andũ othe a Isiraeli kĩanda-inĩ kĩa Ela makĩrũa na Afilisti.”
20 And he rose early David in the morning and he left the flock with a watchman and he lifted up and he went just as he had commanded him Jesse and he came the camp towards and the army which was going out to the battle line and they shouted a war cry in the battle.
Kwarooka gũkĩa-rĩ, Daudi agĩtiga mbũri irĩ na mũrĩithi, akĩoya mĩrigo, akiumagara agĩthiĩ, o ta ũrĩa Jesii aamwathĩrĩire. Nake agĩkinya kambĩ-inĩ o rĩrĩa mbũtũ cia ita cioimagaraga ikangʼethanĩre, irĩ na mbugĩrĩrio ya mbaara.
21 And it deployed Israel and [the] Philistines battle line to meet battle line.
Andũ a Isiraeli na Afilisti maaharagĩria ita ciao igaikara ingʼethanĩire.
22 And he left David the baggage from with him on [the] hand of [the] keeper of the baggage and he ran the battle line and he came and he asked of brothers his to welfare.
Nake Daudi agĩtiga indo iria aakuuĩte harĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wamenyagĩrĩra indo, agĩtengʼera harĩa ikundi icio cia mbaara ciarĩ na akĩgeithia ariũ a nyina.
23 And he - [was] speaking with them and there! [the] man of the champions [was] coming up [was] Goliath the Philistine name his from Gath (from [the] battle lines of *Q(K)*) [the] Philistines and he spoke according to the words these and he heard David.
Rĩrĩa aaragia nao, Goliathũ, njamba ĩyo ya Afilisti kuuma Gathu, ĩkiumĩra gĩkundi-inĩ kĩayo ĩkĩanagĩrĩra ciugo cia kũmoogita o ta ũrĩa yamenyerete, nake Daudi akĩigua.
24 And every man of Israel when saw they the man and they fled from before him and they were afraid exceedingly.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli moonire mũndũ ũcio, othe makĩmũũrĩra marĩ na guoya mũnene.
25 And he said - [the] man of Israel ¿ have you seen the man who comes up this for to defy Israel [he is] coming up and it will be the man who he will strike down him he will make rich him the king - rich[es] great and daughter his he will give to him and [the] house of father his he will make free in Israel.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Isiraeli mooranagia atĩrĩ, “Nĩmũkuona ũrĩa mũndũ ũyũ aikaraga akiumagĩra? Oimagĩra nĩgeetha oogite Isiraeli. Mũthamaki nĩekũheana ũtonga mũingĩ kũrĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩmũraga. Nĩegũcooka ahe mũndũ ũcio mũirĩtu wake amũhikie, nayo nyũmba ya ithe ndĩgũcooka kũrĩha igooti thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.”
26 And he said David to the men who were standing with him saying what? will it be done for the man who he will strike down the Philistine this and he will remove reproach from on Israel that who? [is] the Philistine uncircumcised this that he has defied [the] battle lines of God living.
Daudi akĩũria andũ arĩa maarũngiĩ hakuhĩ nake atĩrĩ, “Atĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũũraga Mũfilisti ũyũ, na ehererie Isiraeli thoni ici egwĩkwo atĩa? Mũfilisti ũyũ ũtarĩ mũruu nake nũũ, atĩ nĩguo oogite ita cia Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo?”
27 And it said to him the people according to the manner this saying thus it will be done for the man who he will strike down him.
Nao magĩcookera ũhoro ũcio maaragia, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo gũgwĩkwo kũrĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũmũũraga.”
28 And he heard Eliab brother his old when spoke he to the men and it burned [the] anger of Eliab on David and he said - why? this have you come down and with whom? have you left [the] fewness of the sheep those in the wilderness I I know arrogance your and [the] wickedness of heart your that so as to see the battle you have come down.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Eliabu, mũrũ wa nyina ũrĩa mũkũrũ, aamũiguire akĩaria na andũ acio-rĩ, agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wake, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũikũrũke gũkũ? Na nũũ ũratigĩire ngʼondu icio itarĩ nyingĩ kũu werũ-inĩ? Nĩnjũũĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ mwĩtĩĩi, na ũrĩa ngoro yaku ĩrĩ maramari; ũikũrũkĩte gũkũ no ũndũ wa kwĩrorera mbaara.”
29 And he said David what? have I done now ¿ not a word [was] it.
Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndagĩĩka atĩa? Anga ndiagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwaria?”
30 And he turned away from beside him to [the] front of another [person] and he said according to the manner this and they brought back him the people word according to the word the former.
Nake agĩcooka akĩhũgũkĩra mũndũ ũngĩ na akĩmwarĩria ũhoro o ro ũcio, nao andũ makĩmũcookeria ũhoro o ta mbere.
31 And they were heard the words which he spoke David and people told before Saul and he sent for him.
Ũhoro ũcio Daudi oigire nĩwaiguirwo, ũkĩmenyithio Saũlũ, nake Saũlũ agĩtũmana ageetwo.
32 And he said David to Saul may not it fall [the] heart of anyone on him servant your he will go and he will fight with the Philistine this.
Daudi akĩĩra Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Ndũkareke mũndũ o na ũmwe akue ngoro nĩ ũndũ wa Mũfilisti ũyũ; ndungata yaku nĩĩgũthiĩ ĩkarũe nake.”
33 And he said Saul to David not you will be able to go against the Philistine this to fight with him for [are] a youth you and he [is] a man of war since youth his.
Saũlũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndũngĩhota gũthiĩ kũrũa na Mũfilisti ũyũ; wee ũrĩ o mũndũ mũnini, nake atũire arũaga mbaara kuuma arĩ o mũnini.”
34 And he said David to Saul shepherding he was servant your for father his the flock and it came the lion and with the bear and it carried off a sheep from the flock.
No Daudi akĩĩra Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndungata yaku ndũire ndĩithagia ngʼondu cia baba. Na rĩrĩa mũrũũthi kana nduba ĩngĩnyiita na ĩkuue ngʼondu kuuma rũũru-inĩ,
35 And I went out after it and I struck it and I rescued [it] from mouth its and it rose up on me and I took hold on beard its and I struck it and I killed it.
ndĩmĩrũmagĩrĩra, ngamĩgũtha, ngateithũra ngʼondu ĩyo kuuma kanua-inĩ kayo. Na rĩrĩa yenda kũndũgĩrĩra ngamĩnyiita nderu, ngamĩgũtha, ngamĩũraga.
36 Both the lion as well as the bear he has struck down servant your and he will be the Philistine uncircumcised this like one from them for he has defied [the] battle lines of God living.
Ndungata yaku yanooraga mũrũũthi na nduba o cierĩ; Mũfilisti ũyũ ũtarĩ mũruu o nake egũtuĩka o ta ĩmwe yacio, tondũ nĩogitĩte ita rĩa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo.
37 And he said David Yahweh who he delivered me from [the] hand of the lion and from [the] hand of the bear he he will deliver me from [the] hand of the Philistine this. And he said Saul to David go and Yahweh he will be with you.
Jehova ũrĩa wahonokirie harĩ gĩthu kĩa mũrũũthi o na gĩthu kĩa nduba-rĩ, nĩekũhonokia guoko-inĩ kwa Mũfilisti ũyũ.” Saũlũ akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ, na Jehova arokorwo hamwe nawe.”
38 And he clothed Saul David garments his and he put a helmet of bronze on head his and he clothed him body armor.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Saũlũ akĩhumba Daudi nguo ciake na, akĩmwĩkĩra nguo ya kĩgera na ngũbia ya gĩcango mũtwe.
39 And he girded David sword his over garments his and he fell short to walk for not he had put to [the] test and he said David to Saul not I will be able to walk in these [things] for not I have put to [the] test and he removed them David from on himself.
Daudi akĩĩoha rũhiũ rwake rwa njora igũrũ rĩa nguo icio, na akĩgeria gũkinyũkia, tondũ ndaacimenyerete. No akĩĩra Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Ndingĩhota gũthiĩ na indo ici, nĩ ũndũ ndicimenyerete.” Nake agĩciruta.
40 And he took stick his in hand his and he chose for himself five smooth [ones] of stones - from the wadi and he put them in [the] bag of shepherds which [belonged] to him and in the pouch and sling his [was] in hand his and he drew near to the Philistine.
Agĩcooka akĩnyiita rũthanju rwake na guoko, agĩthuura tũhiga tũtano tũnyoroku kuuma karũũĩ-inĩ, agĩtwĩkĩra kamũhuko-inĩ gake ka mũrĩithi, akĩnyiita kĩgũtha gĩake na guoko, agĩthiĩ, agĩkuhĩrĩria Mũfilisti ũcio.
41 And he came the Philistine coming and approaching to David and the man [the] bearer of the body shield [was] before him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Mũfilisti ũcio no gũũka ookaga akuhĩrĩrie Daudi, na mũndũ ũrĩa wamũkuuagĩra ngo arĩ mbere yake.
42 And he looked the Philistine and he saw David and he despised him for he was a youth and red with handsome of appearance.
Nake akĩrora Daudi, akĩona atĩ aarĩ o mũndũ mũnini, mũtune mwĩrĩ na agathakara, nake akĩmũira.
43 And he said the Philistine to David ¿ a dog [am] I that you [are] coming against me with sticks and he cursed the Philistine David by gods his.
Akĩĩra Daudi atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ niĩ ndĩ ngui atĩ nĩguo ũgĩũke kũrĩ niĩ na thanju?” Nake Mũfilisti ũcio akĩruma Daudi akĩgwetaga ngai ciake.
44 And he said the Philistine to David come! to me so let me give flesh your to [the] bird[s] of the heavens and to [the] animal[s] of the field.
Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka haha, na nĩngũhe nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ na nyamũ cia gĩthaka nyama ciaku!”
45 And he said David to the Philistine you [are] coming against me with sword and with spear and with javelin and I [am] coming against you in [the] name of Yahweh of hosts [the] God of [the] battle lines of Israel whom you have defied.
Daudi akĩĩra Mũfilisti ũcio atĩrĩ, “Wee ũroka kũrĩ niĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na itimũ na kĩberethi, no niĩ ndĩroka kũrĩ we na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai ũrĩa mwene ita rĩa Isiraeli, ũrĩa wee ũnyararithĩtie.
46 The day this he will deliver up you Yahweh in hand my and I will strike down you and I will remove head your from on you and I will give [the] corpse[s] of [the] army of [the] Philistines the day this to [the] bird[s] of the heavens and to [the] animal[s] of the earth so they may know all the earth that there a God [belongs] to Israel.
Ũmũthĩ Jehova nĩegũkũneana kũrĩ niĩ, na nĩngũkũgũtha ũgwe thĩ, na ngũtinie kĩongo. Ũmũthĩ nĩngũhe nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ na nyamũ cia gĩthaka ciimba cia ita rĩa Afilisti, nayo thĩ yothe ĩmenye atĩ nĩ kũrĩ Ngai thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.
47 So they may know all the assembly this that not by sword and by spear he saves Yahweh for [belongs] to Yahweh the battle and he will give you in hand our.
Arĩa othe moonganĩte haha nĩmekũmenya atĩ Jehova ndahonokanagia na rũhiũ rwa njora kana itimũ; nĩgũkorwo mbaara nĩ ya Jehova, nĩekũmũneana inyuothe moko-inĩ maitũ.”
48 And it was that he arose the Philistine and he came and he drew near to meet David and he hurried David and he ran the battle line to meet the Philistine.
Na rĩrĩa Mũfilisti ũcio aamũkuhagĩrĩria nĩguo amũtharĩkĩre-rĩ, Daudi agĩtengʼera na ihenya erekeire na kũrĩa mbaara yarĩ nĩguo amũtũnge.
49 And he sent David hand his into the bag and he took from there a stone and he slung [it] and he struck the Philistine to forehead his and it sank the stone in forehead his and he fell on face his [the] ground towards.
Agĩikia guoko mondo-inĩ yake akĩruta kahiga kamwe, akĩhiũria kĩgũtha, nake akĩgũtha Mũfilisti ũcio thiithi. Kahiga kau gagĩtoonyerera thiithi-inĩ wake, akĩgũa, agĩturumithia ũthiũ wake thĩ.
50 And he was strong David more than the Philistine with the sling and with the stone and he struck down the Philistine and he killed him and [was] a sword there not in [the] hand of David.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩhoota Mũfilisti ũcio na kĩgũtha na kahiga; ndaarĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora guoko-inĩ gwake akĩgũtha Mũfilisti ũcio na akĩmũũraga.
51 And he ran David and he stood to the Philistine and he took sword his and he drew out it from sheath its and he killed him and he cut off with it head his and they saw the Philistines that he had died mighty [man] their and they fled.
Daudi agĩtengʼera, akĩrũgama igũrũ rĩake. Akĩnyiita rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Mũfilisti ũcio akĩrũcomora njora-inĩ. Thuutha wa kũmũũraga-rĩ, agĩtinia kĩongo gĩake na rũhiũ rũu rwa njora. Rĩrĩa Afilisti moonire atĩ njamba yao nĩ yakua, makĩgarũrũka, makĩũra.
52 And they arose [the] men of Israel and Judah and they shouted a war cry and they pursued the Philistines until coming you [to] Gath and to [the] gates of Ekron and they fell [those] slain of [the] Philistines on [the] way of Shaaraim and to Gath and to Ekron.
Andũ a Isiraeli na Juda makiumĩra maanĩrĩire, makĩingatithia Afilisti nginya itoonyero rĩa Gathu na nginya ihingo-inĩ cia Ekironi. Arĩa moragĩtwo maagwĩte njĩra-inĩ ĩrĩa ĩthiiaga Sharaimu nginya Gathu na Ekironi.
53 And they returned [the] people of Israel from hotly pursuing after [the] Philistines and they plundered camps their.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maacookire kuuma kũingatithia Afilisti, magĩtaha indo kambĩ-inĩ ciao.
54 And he took David [the] head of the Philistine and he brought it Jerusalem and weapons his he put in own tent his.
Daudi akĩoya mũtwe wa Mũfilisti ũcio, akĩũtwara Jerusalemu, na akĩiga indo cia Mũfilisti ũcio cia mbaara hema-inĩ yake mwene.
55 And just as saw Saul David going out to meet the Philistine he said to Abner [the] commander of the army son of whom? this [is] the youth O Abner and he said Abner [by] [the] life of self your O king if I knew.
Na rĩrĩa Saũlũ eroreire Daudi agĩthiĩ gũtũnga Mũfilisti, akĩũria Abina, mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita, atĩrĩ, “Mwanake ũyũ nĩ mũriũ waũ?” Abina akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa ũtũũraga muoyo wee mũthamaki, niĩ ndiũĩ nĩ waũ.”
56 And he said the king ask you son of whom? this [is] the youth.
Nake mũthamaki akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta gĩtuĩrie ũmenye mwanake ũcio nĩ mũriũ waũ.”
57 And just as returned David from striking down the Philistine and he took him Abner and he brought him before Saul and [the] head of the Philistine [was] in hand his.
Na thuutha wa Daudi gũcooka kuuma kũũraga Mũfilisti-rĩ, Abina akĩmuoya na akĩmũtwara mbere ya Saũlũ, o anyiitĩte mũtwe wa Mũfilisti ũcio.
58 And he said to him Saul son of whom? [are] you O youth and he said David [the] son of servant your Jesse [the] Beth-lehemite.
Saũlũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwanake ũyũ, ũrĩ mũriũ waũ?” Nake Daudi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ mũrũ wa ndungata yaku Jesii wa Bethilehemu.”
