1 Samuel 23
1 And people told to David saying there! [the] Philistines [are] fighting against Keilah and they [are] plundering the threshing floors.
David el lohngak lah mwet Philistia elos mweun lain acn Keilah ac pisre wheat ke kosrani sasu lalos.
2 And he enquired David by Yahweh saying ¿ will I go and will I strike? the Philistines these. And he said Yahweh to David go and you will strike the Philistines and you will deliver Keilah.
Ke ma inge el siyuk sin LEUM GOD, “Ya fal nga in som ac mweun lain mwet Philistia?” Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Aok, mweun lainulos ac molela mwet Keilah.”
3 And they said [the] men of David to him here! we here in Judah [are] fearful and indeed? if we will go Keilah against [the] battle lines of [the] Philistines.
A mwet lal David elos fahk nu sel, “Liye, kut arulana sangeng yenu ke kut muta fin acn Judah, a kut fin som nu Keilah ac lain mwet Philistia, kut ac sangeng yohk liki na!”
4 And he repeated again David to enquire by Yahweh. And he answered him Yahweh and he said arise go down Keilah for I [am] about to give [the] Philistines in hand your.
Na David el sifilpa siyuk kasru sin LEUM GOD, ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Fahla nu Keilah ac mweun, tuh nga ac fah asot kutangla nu sum fin mwet Philistia.”
5 And he went David (and men his *Q(K)*) Keilah and he fought against the Philistines and he drove away livestock their and he defeated them a defeat great and he delivered David [the] inhabitants of Keilah.
Na David ac mwet lal elos som nu Keilah ac mweun lain mwet Philistia. Elos uniya mwet pus selos, ac elos eisla kosro natulos. Ouinge David el molela siti sac.
6 And it was when fled Abiathar [the] son of Ahimelech to David Keilah an ephod it came down in hand his.
Ke Abiathar, wen natul Ahimelech, el tuh kaingla ac tuku nu yorol David in acn Keilah, el us nuknuk ephod lun mwet tol welul.
7 And it was told to Saul that he had gone David Keilah and he said Saul he has alienated him God in hand my for he has shut himself up by going in a city of doors and bar[s].
Ke Saul el lohng lah David el som nu Keilah, el fahk, “God El eisalma nu inpouk. David el sifacna oru in sruhu el ke el utyak nu in sie siti kuhlusyuki ke pot fulat, ac mutunpot we kauli ku.”
8 And he summoned Saul all the people for battle to go down Keilah to lay siege against David and against men his.
Ke ma inge, Saul el pangon mwet mweun lal in som mweun lain acn Keilah ac in sruokilya David ac mwet lal.
9 And he knew David that on him Saul [was] plotting evil and he said to Abiathar the priest bring near! the ephod.
Ke David el lohng lah Saul el akoo in tuku lainul, el fahk nu sin mwet tol Abiathar, “Use nuknuk ephod uh nu inge.”
10 And he said David O Yahweh [the] God of Israel certainly he has heard servant your that [is] seeking Saul to come to Keilah to destroy the city because of me.
Na David el fahk, “LEUM GOD lun Israel, nga lohng mu Saul el akoo elan tuku ac kunausla acn Keilah ke sripuk, mwet kulansap lom.
11 ¿ Will they deliver up me [the] citizens of Keilah in hand his ¿ will he come down Saul just as he has heard servant your O Yahweh [the] God of Israel tell please to servant your. And he said Yahweh he will come down.
Ya mwet Keilah elos ac eisyuyang nu inpaol Saul? Ya pwaye Saul el ac tuku, oana ke nga lohng uh? LEUM GOD lun Israel, nga kwafe sum tuh kom in topukyu!” Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Saul el ac fah tuku.”
12 And he said David ¿ will they deliver up [the] citizens of Keilah me and men my in [the] hand of Saul and he said Yahweh they will deliver [you] up.
Ac David el sifil siyuk, “Ya mwet Keilah elos ac eisyuyang ac mwet luk inge nu inpaol Saul?” LEUM GOD El topuk, “Aok.”
13 And he arose David and men his about six hundred man and they went out from Keilah and they went about at where they went about and to Saul it was told that he had escaped David from Keilah and he ceased to go forth.
Ke ma inge, David ac mwet onfoko lal inge tuyak som liki acn Keilah ac takusrkusr infulan acn uh. Ke Saul el lohngak lah David el kaingla liki acn Keilah, na el fuhleak akoo se lal ah.
14 And he dwelt David in the wilderness in the strongholds and he dwelt in the hill country in [the] wilderness of Ziph and he sought him Saul all the days and not he gave him God in hand his.
David el muta wikwik fineol uh, in acn mwesis apkuran nu Ziph. Pacl nukewa Saul el srike elan konalak David, tuh LEUM GOD El tia eisalang David nu inpaol.
15 And he saw David that he had come forth Saul to seek life his and David [was] in [the] wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.
Ac David el liye tuh Saul el sukna elan unilya. David el muta Horesh, in acn mwesis apkuran nu Ziph.
16 And he arose Jonathan [the] son of Saul and he went to David Horesh and he strengthened hand his in God.
Ac Jonathan el som nu yorol ac sang kas in akkeyal ac akesmakinyal lah God El karinganul na.
17 And he said to him may not you be afraid for not it will find you [the] hand of Saul father my and you you will reign over Israel and I I will become to you second in rank and also Saul father my [is] knowing [it is] thus.
El fahk nu sel David, “Nikmet sangeng. Saul, papa tumuk, el tia ku in oru kutu ma in akkolukye kom. El etu na pwaye lah kom pa ac tokosra fin mwet Israel, ac nga pa ac akluo uh.”
18 And they made [the] two of them a covenant before Yahweh and he remained David at Horesh and Jonathan he went to house his.
Na eltal tukeni orala sie wulela mutal inmasrloltal tuh eltal in kawuk na pwaye. Na David el mutana Horesh, ac Jonathan el som nu in acn sel.
19 And they went up Ziphites to Saul Gibeah towards saying ¿ not [is] David hiding himself with us in the strongholds at Horesh on [the] hill of Hakilah which [is] from [the] south of Jeshimon.
Kutu mwet Ziph elos som nu yorol Saul in acn Gibeah ac fahk nu sel, “David el wikwik oasr in acn sesr Horesh ke Fineol Hachilah, su oan eir in acn mwesis Judea.
20 And now to all [the] desire of self your O king to come down come down and [belongs] to us to deliver up him in [the] hand of the king.
O Tokosra, kut etu lupan kena lom tuh kom in sruokilya David. Ke ma inge, fahsru nu yen sesr, ac kut fah kasrekom in sruokilya.”
21 And he said Saul [be] blessed you by Yahweh for you have had compassion on me.
Saul el fahk, “LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoye kowos ke kulang lowos nu sik uh!
22 Go please prepare still and know and see place his where it is foot his who? has he seen him there for someone has said to me certainly he is crafty he.
Kowos sifilpa folokot suk akwoye, ac konauk na pwaye acn el muta we, oayapa su liyal we. Nga lohng mu el arulana ngusrik in nunak.
23 And see and know from all the hiding places where he hides himself there and you will return to me to a certain [thing] and I will go with you and it will be if there he [is] in the land and I will search out him among all [the] thousands of Judah.
Sokak na pwaye acn el muta wikwik we an, ac sulaklak sapma fahk nu sik. Na nga fah wi kowos fahsrot, ac el fin srakna oasr ingan, nga ac fah sokol nwe ke nga konalak, nga finne enenu in sokol in facl Judah nufon.”
24 And they arose and they went Ziph towards before Saul and David and men his [were] in [the] wilderness of Maon in the Arabah to [the] south of Jeshimon.
Na mwet inge folok nu Ziph meet lukel Saul. David ac mwet lal elos muta in acn mwesis in Maon, ke sie infahlfal wangin ma fac su oan nu eir in yen mwesis lun Judea.
25 And he went Saul and men his to seek [him] and people told to David and he went down the rock and he remained in [the] wilderness of Maon and he heard Saul and he pursued after David [the] wilderness of Maon.
Saul ac mwet lal elos som in sokol David. Ke David el lohngak, el som nu ke eol eoteot in acn mwesis Maon ac muta we. Ke Saul el lohng ma inge, el som tokol David.
26 And he went Saul from [the] side of the mountain from this and David and men his [were] from [the] side of the mountain from this and he was David hurrying away to go from before Saul and Saul and men his [were] surrounding David and men his to catch them.
Na Saul ac mwet lal elos muta lac eol uh, ac David ac mwet lal elos muta lac eol uh. David ac mwet lal elos sulaklak kaingkunul Saul ac mwet lal, mweyen elos apkuranyang in sruokolosi.
27 And a messenger he came to Saul saying make haste! and come! for they have made a raid [the] Philistines on the land.
In kitin pacl ah na sie mwet utuk kas el tuku ac fahk nu sel Saul, “Sulaklak foloko! Mwet Philistia elos utyak tari in sruokya facl sesr!”
28 And he turned back Saul from pursuing after David and he went to meet [the] Philistines there-fore people called the place that Sela Hammahlekoth.
Ke ma inge, Saul el tila ukwal David, a el folokla mweun lain mwet Philistia. Pa inge sripa se pangpang fineol soko ah Fineol In Sralik.
29 And he went up David from there and he dwelt in [the] strongholds of En Gedi.
David el som liki acn we, ac fahsr nu acn se pangpang “Engedi,” ac el muta wikwik we.
