< 1 Samuel 30 >

1 And it was when came David and men his Ziklag on the day third and [the] Amalekite[s] they had made a raid against [the] Negev and against Ziklag and they had struck Ziklag and they had burned it with fire.
Pa tsiku lachitatu, Davide ndi anthu ake anakafika ku Zikilagi. Tsono anapeza Aamaleki atawononga kale dera la Negevi ndi Zikilagi. Anathira nkhondo mzinda wa Zikilagi ndi kuwutentha ndi moto.
2 And they had taken captive the women who [were] in it from small and unto great not they had killed anyone and they had driven them away and they had gone to way their.
Anatenga akazi ndi onse amene anali mʼmenemo akuluakulu ndi angʼono omwe kuti akakhale akapolo. Sanaphe aliyense koma anawatenga amoyo napita nawo.
3 And he came David and men his to the city and there! [it was] burned with fire and wives their and sons their and daughters their they had been taken captive.
Davide ndi anthu ake atafika ku Zikilagi anapeza kuti mzindawo watenthedwa ndi moto ndipo akazi awo, ana awo, amuna ndi akazi atengedwa ukapolo.
4 And he lifted up David and the people which [was] with him voice their and they wept until that not [was] in them strength to weep.
Kotero Davide ndi anthu ake analira mofuwula mpaka analibenso mphamvu zolirira.
5 And [the] two [the] wives of David they had been taken captive Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Akazi awiri a Davide, Ahinoamu wa ku Yezireeli ndi Abigayeli mkazi wa Nabala wa ku Karimeli anatengedwanso.
6 And it was distress to David exceedingly for they said the people to stone him for it was bitter [the] soul of all the people everyone on (sons his *Q(K)*) and on daughters his and he strengthened himself David in Yahweh God his.
Davide anavutika kwambiri mu mtima mwake chifukwa anthu amakamba zoti amuponye miyala popeza aliyense anali ndi chisoni pokumbukira ana ake aamuna ndi aakazi. Koma Davide anapeza mphamvu mwa Yehova Mulungu wake.
7 And he said David to Abiathar the priest [the] son of Ahimelech bring near! please to me the ephod and he brought near Abiathar the ephod to David.
Kenaka Davide anawuza wansembe Abiatara, mwana wa Ahimeleki kuti, “Ndipatse efodi ija.” Abiatara anabwera nayo efodiyo.
8 And he enquired David by Yahweh saying will I pursue? after the marauding band this ¿ will I overtake it and he said to him pursue for certainly you will overtake [it] and certainly you will rescue [them].
Tsono Davide anapempha nzeru kwa Yehova nati, “Kodi ndilitsatire gulu lankhondoli? Kodi ndidzawapambana?” Yehova anayankha kuti, “Litsatire, iwe udzawapambana ndithu ndipo udzapulumutsa anthu ako.”
9 And he went David he and six hundred man who [were] with him and they came to [the] wadi of Besor and those [who] were left behind they remained.
Davide pamodzi ndi anthu ake 600 aja ananyamuka nafika ku mtsinje wa Besori. Kumeneko anasiyako anthu ena.
10 And he pursued David he and four hundred man and they remained two hundred man who they were [too] exhausted for passing over [the] wadi of Besor.
Davide ndi anthu ake 400 anapitirira kuwalondola Aamaleki aja. Koma anthu ena 200 anatsala popeza anatopa moti sakanatha kuwoloka mtsinje wa Besori uja.
11 And they found a man Egyptian in the open country and they took him to David and they gave to him bread and he ate and they gave to drink him water.
Anthu amene anali ndi Davide anapeza Mwigupto mʼmunda wina ndipo anabwera naye kwa Davide. Iwo anamupatsa madzi kuti amwe ndi chakudya kuti adye.
12 And they gave to him a slice of fig cake and two bunches of raisins and he ate and it returned spirit his to him for not he had eaten food and not he had drunk water three days and three nights.
Anamupatsanso chidutswa cha keke yankhuyu ndi makeke awiri a mphesa zowumika kuti adye. Atadya anapezanso mphamvu popeza anakhala masiku atatu wosadya kapena kumwa kanthu kalikonse.
13 And he said to him David [belong] to whom? you and where? from this [are] you and he said [am] a young man Egyptian I a slave of a man Amalekite and he abandoned me master my if I was sick the day three.
Davide anafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndiwe yani, ndipo ukuchokera kuti?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine Mwigupto, kapolo wa Mwamaleki. Mbuye wanga anandisiya nditayamba kudwala masiku atatu apitawo.
14 We we had made a raid [the] Negev of the Kerethite[s] and on [that] which [belongs] to Judah and on [the] Negev of Caleb and Ziklag we had burned with fire.
Ife tinathira nkhondo dera la kummwera kwa mayiko a Akereti, dera la Yuda, ndi dera la kummwera kwa mayiko a Kalebe. Mzinda wa Zikilagi tinawutentha ndi moto.”
15 And he said to him David ¿ will you take down me to the marauding band this and he said swear! to me by God if you will kill me and if you will deliver up me in [the] hand of master my and I will take down you to the marauding band this.
Davide anamupempha kuti, “Kodi unganditsogolere kumene kuli gulu lankhondoli?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Mukandilonjeza molumbira kuti simudzandipha kapena kundipereka kwa mbuye wanga, ine ndikulondolerani kumene kuli gululo.”
16 And he took down him and there! [they were] spread out over [the] face of all the land eating and drinking and celebrating in all the plunder great which they had taken from [the] land of [the] Philistines and from [the] land of Judah.
Mwigupto uja anaperekeza Davide. Tsono Aamaleki anali atamwazikana ponseponse. Iwo ankadya, kumwa ndi kuvina chifukwa cha zofunkha zambiri zimene anatenga ku dziko la Afilisti ndi ku dziko la Ayuda.
17 And he struck down them David from the twilight and until the evening of next day their and not he escaped of them anyone that except four hundred man young man who they rode on the camels and they fled.
Tsono Davide anawakantha kuyambira madzulo atsikulo mpaka madzulo a tsiku linalo. Palibe anapulumuka kupatula anyamata 400 amene anakwera pa ngamira nʼkuthawa.
18 And he rescued David all that they had taken Amalek and [the] two wives his he rescued David.
Choncho Davide analanditsa zinthu zonse zimene Aamaleki aja anatenga. Anapulumutsanso akazi ake awiri aja.
19 And not it was missing to them from the small and unto the great and unto sons and daughters and from [the] booty and unto all that they had taken for themselves everything he brought back David.
Palibe chimene chinasowa anthu onse, kuyambira wamngʼono mpaka wamkulu, mnyamata mpaka mtsikana anapulumutsidwa. Davide anapulumutsa chilichonse chimene anafunkha Aamaleki aja.
20 And he took David all the sheep and the cattle they drove [them] before the livestock that and they said this [is] [the] booty of David.
Anapulumutsanso nkhosa ndi ngʼombe zonse. Tsono anthu ankakusa ziwetozo namati, “Izi ndizo zofunkha za Davide.”
21 And he came David to two hundred the men who they had been [too] exhausted - for going - after David and they had left behind them at [the] wadi of Besor and they went out to meet David and to meet the people which [was] with him and he approached David the people and he asked of them to welfare.
Davide anafika ku malo kumene kunali anthu 200 otopa kwambiri aja amene sanathe kutsagana naye koma anangokhala ku mtsinje wa Besori. Tsono ananyamuka kuti akumane ndi Davide pamodzi ndi anthu amene anali naye. Davide anawayandikira nawalonjera.
22 And he answered every man evil and worthlessness from the men who they had gone with David and they said because that not they went with me not we will give to them any of the booty which we have recovered that except everyone wife his and children his so they may lead [them] away and they may go.
Tsono anthu ena oyipa mtima achabechabe mwa amene anatsagana ndi Davide aja anati, “Popeza awa sanapite nafe, sitiwapatsako zofunkha zimene tapulumutsazi, kupatula kuti aliyense atenge mkazi wake ndi ana ake azipita.”
23 And he said David not you must do thus O brothers my [that] which he has given Yahweh to us and he has kept us and he has given the marauding band which came on us in hand our.
Koma Davide anawayankha kuti, “Ayi, abale anga, musachite zimenezi ndi zinthu zimene Yehova watipatsa. Iye watisunga ndi kupereka mʼmanja mwathu gulu la ankhondo limene linabwera kudzalimbana nafe.
24 And who? will he listen to you to the matter this for like [the] share of - the [one who] went down in the battle and like [the] share of the [one who] remained with the baggage alike they will share.
Ndani angakumvereni zimene mukunenazi? Gawo la munthu amene anapita kukamenya nkhondo likhale lofanana ndi la munthu amene anatsala pano kuyangʼanira katundu wathu. Pasakhale kusiyana kulikonse.”
25 And it was from the day that and on-wards and he made it into a statute and into a judgment for Israel until the day this.
Choncho Davide anakhazikitsa ngati lamulo mʼchitidwe woterewu pakati pa Aisraeli kuyambira tsiku limenelo mpaka lero.
26 And he came David to Ziklag and he sent some of the booty to [the] elders of Judah to friend his saying here! [is] for you a blessing from [the] booty of [the] enemies of Yahweh.
Davide atafika ku Zikilagi, anatumiza zina mwa zofunkhazo kwa akuluakulu a Yuda, amene anali abwenzi ake. Anati, “Nayi mphatso yanu yochokera pa zofunkha za adani a Yehova.”
27 For [those] who [were] in Beth-el and for [those] who [were] in Ramoth Negev and for [those] who [were] in Jattir.
Iye anatumiza mphatsozo kwa anthu a ku Beteli, Ramoti-Negavi, Yatiri,
28 And for [those] who [were] in Aroer and for [those] who [were] in Siphmoth and for [those] who [were] in Eshtemoa.
Aroeri, Sifimoti, Esitemowa
29 And for [those] who [were] in Racal and for [those] who [were] in [the] cities of the Jerahmeelite[s] and for [those] who [were] in [the] cities of the Kenite[s].
Rakala, mizinda ya fuko la Ayerahimeeli, mizinda ya fuko la Akeni,
30 And for [those] who [were] in Hormah and for [those] who [were] in Bor Ashan and for [those] who ([were] in Athach. *LA(bh)*)
a ku Horima, Borasani, Ataki,
31 And for [those] who [were] in Hebron and for all the places where he had gone about there David he and men his.
Hebroni pamodzi ndi onse a kumalo kumene Davide ndi anthu ake anakhala akuyendayendako.
