1 Samuel 21
1 David fled from there and went to Nob [city to see] Ahimelech the priest. Ahimelech trembled when he saw David [because he was afraid that something bad had happened]. He said to David, “Why are you alone? Why have no men come with you?”
Kalpasanna, dimteng ni David idiay Nob tapno sarakenna ni Ahimelec a padi. Agtigtigerger ni Ahimelec a nangsabat kenni David ket kinunana kenkuana, “Apay nga agmaymaysaka ken apay nga awan ti kaduam?”
2 David [deceived Ahimelech] by replying, “The king sent me. But he does not want anyone to know anything about what he sent me to do. I have told my men where [they should meet me].
Kinuna ni David kenni Ahimelec a padi, “Imbaonnak ti ari iti maysa a panggep ket kinunana kaniak, 'Awan koma ti makaammo maipapan iti pangibabaonak kenka, ken ti maipapan iti imbilinko kenka.' Imbaonko dagiti agtutubo a lallaki iti maysa lugar.
3 Now [I want to know], do you have any [food here for me to eat] [IDM]? Could you give me five loaves of bread, or whatever [other food] that you can find?”
Ita ngarud, ania ti adda kenka dita? Ikkannak koma iti lima a pidaso a tinapay, wenno uray ania nga adda ditoy.”
4 The priest answered David, “There is no ordinary bread here, but I have some of the sacred bread [that was placed before Yahweh]. Your men may eat it if they have not slept with [EUP] women [recently].”
Simmungbat ti padi kenni David a kunana, “Awan ti tinapay ita ditoy a mabalin a kanen ti siasinoman, ngem ti laeng adda ditoy ket ti tinapay a naidaton- no dagiti agtutubo a lallaki ket saan a nakikaidda kadagiti babbai.”
5 David replied, “They have not been near women for many days. I do not allow my men to defile themselves by sleeping with women while they are preparing to fight in battles. They must continue to keep themselves acceptable to God when they are on ordinary trips, and [today they have kept themselves acceptable to God] because now we are doing something very special/important.”
Simmungbat ni David iti padi, “Maipanamnamak a tallon nga aldaw a saankami a nakikaidda kadagiti babbai. Idi nagrubwatak, dagiti bagi dagitoy a lallaki ket napagtalinaedda a nadalus iti imatang ni Yahweh, uray no daytoy ket gagangay a panagdaliasat. Ad-adda ngarud ita a mapagtalinaed ti kinadalus dagiti bagbagida iti imatang ni Yahweh.”
6 The only bread that the priest had was the sacred bread that had been placed in Yahweh’s presence [in the Sacred tent]. So the priest gave David some of that bread. On that day the priest had taken those loaves from the table and replaced them with (fresh/newly baked) loaves.
Isu nga inted ti padi kenkuana ti tinapay a naidaton kenni Yahweh. Ta awan ti tinapay sadiay, ti laeng tinapay a naidaton kenni Yahweh a masukatan iti kalutluto a tinapay no maikkat daytoy iti nakaikabilanna.
7 It happened that Doeg, from the Edom people-group, was there on that day to make himself acceptable to Yahweh, [and he saw what Ahimelech did]. He was one of Saul’s officials and the leader of Saul’s shepherds.
Ita, maysa kadagiti adipen ni Saul ket adda sadiay iti dayta nga aldaw, ta kapilitan nga agtalinaed isuna sadiay. Ti naganna ket Doeg a taga-Edom, a pangulo dagiti agay-aywan iti arban ni Saul.
8 David asked Ahimelech, “Do you have a spear or a sword [that I could use]? The king [appointed us to do] this task [and told us to leave] immediately, so I did not have time to bring any weapons.”
Kinuna ni David kenni Ahimelec, “Adda kadi uray ania a gayang wenno kampilan dita? Ta awan ti naitugotko a kampilanko wenno uray ania nga igamko, gapu ta kasapulan a mapanak a dagus iti pangibabaonan kaniak ti ari.”
9 Ahimelech replied, “I have only the sword that belonged to Goliath [the giant] from the Philistia people-group whom you killed in Elah Valley. It is wrapped in a cloth, and is behind the sacred vest [in the Sacred Tent]. If you want it, take it, because I have no other [weapon] here.” David replied, “Truly, there is no other sword that is [as good] as that one! Give it to me.”
Kinuna ti padi, “Adda ditoy ti kampilan ni Goliat a Filisteo a pinapataymo idiay tanap ti Ela, nabalkot iti maysa a lupot ket nailinged iti efod. No kayatmo nga alaen dayta, alaem, ta awanen ti sabali nga igam ditoy malaksid iti dayta.” Kinuna ni David, “Awanen ti sabali a kampilan a kas iti dayta; itedmo kaniak.”
10 [So Ahimelech gave it to him], and David left there. He [and his men] and went to Gath [city in the Philistia region], to stay with King Achish.
Nagrubwat ni David ket linibasanna ni Saul iti dayta nga aldaw ket napan kenni Akis nga ari iti Gat.
11 But the officers of King Achish [objected to David being there. They] said to King Achish, “This man is [RHQ] David, the king of Israel! He is the one [RHQ] whom [our enemies], the [Israeli] people, [honored by] dancing and singing, ‘Saul has killed thousands [of his enemies], but David has killed tens of thousands of them!’”
Kinuna dagiti adipen ni Akis kenkuana, “Saan kadi a daytoy ti David nga ari iti daga? Saan kadi nga insalsalada ti panangikankantada iti maipapan kenkuana, 'Pinatay ni Saul ti rinibribu ket ni David ket sangapulo a ribu?'
12 David heard what those men were saying, so he was afraid of [what] King Achish [might do to him].
Naimula iti puso ni David dagitoy a sasao ket kasta unay ti butengna kenni Akis nga ari ti Gat.
13 So he pretended that he was insane. He started scratching on the gates [of the city] and allowing his saliva to run down his beard.
Binaliwannna ti panagtigtignayna ket nagpammarang nga agbagtit iti imatangda; sinuratsuratanna dagiti ruangan ti pagserkan ken baybay-anna nga agayus ti katayna iti barbasna.
14 Then King Achish said to his men, “Look at this man! He is acting like an insane man! Why have you brought him to me?
Ket kinuna ni Akis kadagiti adipenna, “Kitaenyo, agbagtit met gayam daytoy a tao. Apay nga inyegyo isuna kaniak?
15 Have you brought him because I do not have enough insane men here already [RHQ]? I do not want [RHQ] him to come into my house!”
Agkurangak kadi pay aya iti agbagtit, isu nga inyegyo daytoy a tao nga agaramid iti kas iti dayta iti imatangko? Pudno kadi nga umay daytoy a tao iti balayko?”
