< 1 Samuel 20 >

1 Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came and said to Jonathan, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? What is my sin before your father, that he seeks to take my life?”
Nitriban-day boake Naiote e Ramà añe t’i Davide vaho nivo­trak’ am’ Ionatane, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ino ze o nanoeko zao? Ino o hakeokoo? naho ino ty tahiko añatrefan-drae’o, ie mipay ty fiaiko?
2 Jonathan said to David, “Far from it; you will not die. My father does nothing either great or small without telling it to me. Why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so.”
Le hoe re tama’e: Sondo’e; tsy hihomake irehe; oniño te tsy manao ndra kede ndra bey ty raeko naho tsy aboa’e amako heike; aa vaho ino ty hampikafiran-draeko amako o raha zao? Tsy to izay.
3 Yet David vowed again and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes. He has said, 'Do not let Jonathan know this, or he will be grieved.' But as truly as Yahweh lives, and as you live, there is but a step between me and death.”
Mbore nititike t’i Davide nanao ty hoe: Toe fohin-drae’o t’ie nahaoni-pañisohañe am-pihaino’o, le hoe ty atao’e, Ko ampahafohineñe Ionatane zao hera hihontoke; fe kanao veloñe t’Iehovà naho veloñe ty fiai’o le toe lika raike ty añivoko naho ty fikenkañañe.
4 Then Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you say, I will do for you.”
Le hoe t’Ionatane amy Davide; Ino ty salalan-tro’o hanoeko ama’o?
5 David said to Jonathan, “Tomorrow is the new moon, and I ought to sit down to eat with the king. But let me go, so that I may hide myself in the field until the third day at evening.
Le hoe t’i Davide am’ Ionatane: Inao te pea-bolañe ty hamaray, le tsy ho napoko ty hitoboke hitrao-pikama amy mpanjakay; aa le angao homb’eo iraho hietak’ an-kivok’ ao ampara’ te haleñe amy andro faha teloy.
6 If your father misses me at all, then say, 'David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city; because it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the clan.'
Aa naho mipay ahy ndra kede ty rae’o, le anò ty hoe: Nimane halaly amako t’i Davide ty hihitrifa’e mb’e Betlekheme rova’e; fa tondroke i soron-tsavereña’e boa-taoñey.
7 If he says, 'It is well,' your servant will have peace. But if he is very angry, then know that he has decided on evil.
Aa naho manao ty hoe re: Soa izay. Le hanintsiñe ty mpitoro’o; f’ie viñetse, le fohino te ikinia’e raty.
8 Therefore deal kindly with your servant. For you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you. But if there is sin in me, kill me yourself; for why then should you bring me to your father?”
Aa le isoho o mpitoro’oo; amy fañina’ Iehovà nanoe’ i mpitoro’oy ama’oy; f’ie aman-kakeo le vonò; fa ino ty hanesea’o ahy mb’aman-drae’o mb’eo?
9 Jonathan said, “Far be it from you! If I learned my father decided harm to come upon you, would I not tell you?”
Le hoe t’Ionatane: Atòtse ama’o izay fa naho vata’e napotako te nikililien-draeko raty, tsy ho nampandrendreheko hao?
10 Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me if by chance your father should answer you roughly?”
Aa le hoe t’i Davide am’ Ionatane, Ia ty hita­lily amako te nanoiñe azo an-keloke ty rae’o?
11 Jonathan said to David, “Come, let us go out into the field.” So they both went out into the field.
Le hoe t’Ionatane amy Davide: Antao homb’ an-kivoke ey. Le nimb’an-kivoke ey iereon-dro-roe.
12 Jonathan said to David, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be witness. When I have questioned my father around this time tomorrow, or the third day, see, if there is good will toward David, will I not then send to you and make it known to you?
Aa hoe t’Ionatane amy Davide: aolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Izaho hitsok’ an-draeko amo ora zao te maray, ndra herone, le inao, naho fañisohañe amy Davide ty ao, lehe tsy hahitriko ama’o, vaho hitalily azo,
13 If it pleases my father to do you harm, may Yahweh do to Jonathan and more also if I do not make it known to you and send you away, so that you may go in peace. May Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father.
le ee te hanoe’ Iehovà am’ Ionatane naho mandikoatse; fa naho mahafale an-draeko ty mañoho-doza ama’o, le hitaliliako, hañirahako azo homb’eo, hañaveloa’o am-panin­tsiñañe; vaho hindre ama’o t’Iehovà manahake ty nindreza’e aman-draeko.
14 If I am still alive, will you not show me the covenant faithfulness of Yahweh, that I may not die?
Aa naho mbe velon-draho tsy haboa’o amako hao ty fiferenaiña’ Iehovà, tsy hihomahako?
15 Do not cut off your covenant faithfulness from my house forever—not even when Yahweh cuts off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth.”
Le tsy hapitso’o an-trañoko nainai’e ty fañisoha’o; ndra te naitoa’ Iehovà o rafelahi’ i Davideo, fonga finao’e an-tane atoy.
16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David and said, “May Yahweh require an accounting from the hand of the enemies of David.”
Aa le nifañina ami’ty anjomba’ i Davide t’Ionatane, t’ie ho paia’ Iehovà am-pità’ o rafelahi’ i Davideo.
17 Jonathan made David vow again because of the love that he had for him, because he loved him as he loved his own soul.
Le nampifantà’ Ionatane indraike t’i Davide, ami’ty fikokoa’e; amy te nikokoa’e manahake ty nikokoa’e ty vata’e.
18 Then Jonathan said to him, “Tomorrow is the new moon. You will be missed because your seat will be empty.
Le hoe t’Ionatane ama’e: Hiri-bolañe te maray: le ho paian-drehe; amy te ho kòake i fiambesa’oy.
19 When you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself when the business was in hand, and stay by the stone Ezel.
Aa le mietaha soa irehe te herone, le miheova mb’amy fikafira’o amy androm-pitoloñañey le ey avao irehe marine ty vato’ i Ezele.
20 I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target.
Hahiririko ty ana-pale telo añ’ila’e eo, hoe mañohatse fanolarañe.
21 Then I will send my young man and say to him, 'Go find the arrows.' If I say to the young boy, 'Look, the arrows are on this side of you; get them,” then come; for there will be safety for you and not harm, as Yahweh lives.
Ie amy zao, hañitrifako ajalahy: Akia paiao o ana-paleo. Aa naho ataoko ty hoe: Ingo, añ’ila’o atoy o ana-paleo, rambeso vaho mb’etoa; le fañanintsiñe ty ho ama’o fa tsy joy, kanao veloñe t’Iehovà.
22 “But if I say to the young man, 'Look, the arrows are beyond you,' then go your way, for Yahweh has sent you away.
F’ie ataoko ty hoe i ajalahiy: Inge, mbe aolo’o añe o ana-paleo; le akia, fa nirahe’ Iehovà mb’eo.
23 As for the agreement of which you and I have spoken, see, Yahweh is between you and me forever.'”
Aa i nisaontsien-tikañey, Inao! añivon-tikañe nainai’e t’Iehovà.
24 So David hid himself in the field. When the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
Le nietak’ an-kivok’ ao t’i Davide; aa ie nipea-bolañe, niam­besatse hikama i mpanjakay.
25 The king sat on his seat, as usual, on the seat by the wall. Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side. But David's place was empty.
Niambesatse amy fiambesa’ey i mpanjakay, manahake ty lili’e, amy fiambesatse mioza amy rindriñeiy; nijohañe t’Ionatane, vaho niambesatse añ’ila’ i Saole eo ty Abnere; fe nikòake ty fiambesa’ i Davide.
26 Yet Saul did not say anything that day, because he thought, “Something has happened to him. He is not clean; surely he is not clean.”
Tsy nisaontsy ndra inoñ’ inoñe amy andro zay t’i Saole, fa hoe ty natao’e: Va’e nifetsahan-draha; he t’ie maleotse; tsy malio.
27 But on the second day, the day after the new moon, David's place was empty. Saul said to Jonathan his son, “Why has the son of Jesse not come to the meal either yesterday or today?”
Ie amy loak’ andro manonjohy i pea-bolañeiy, i andro faharoey, naho nikoake ty fiambesa’ i Davide; le hoe t’i Saole am’ Ionatane ana’e: Akore te tsy nimb’ am-pikamàñe mb’etoa i ana’ Iisay, ndra omale ndra androany?
28 Jonathan answered Saul, “David earnestly asked permission from me to go to Bethlehem.
Le hoe ty natoi’ Ionatane amy Saole: Nihalalia’ i Davide t’ie hienga mb’e Betlekheme mb’eo;
29 He said, 'Please let me go. For our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has ordered me to be there. Now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go and see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table.”
ami’ty hoe: Ehe, angao hiavotse iraho, fa misoroñe an-drova ao o longokoo vaho nañambara’ ty rahalahiko hiatreke; aa naho nahatendreke fañisohañe am-pihaino’o le adono hihitrike mb’eo handrendreke an-drolongoko. Aa le tsy niheo mb’ am-pandambaña’ i mpanjakay atoa re.
30 Then Saul's anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
Nisolebotse am’ Ionatane ty haviñera’ i Saole, ami’ty hoe: Ty anan-drakemba-piola mengoke tia, tsy apotako hao te jinobo’o ho an-kasalara’o naho ho ami’ty fimeñaram-piboridañan-drene’o i ana’ Iisaiiy?
31 For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established. Now then, send and bring him to me, for he must surely die.”
Fa naho mbe veloñe ambone tane atoy i ana’ Iisaiiy, le tsy horizan-drehe, ndra ty fifehea’o. Aa le ahitrifo mb’ amako mb’etoa re, fa mañeva ho mate.
32 Jonathan answered Saul his father, “For what reason should he be put to death? What has he done?”
Le hoe ty natoi’ Ionatane amy Saole rae’e: Aa vaho ino ty hañohofan-doza ama’e? Nanao inon-dre?
33 Then Saul threw his spear at him to kill him. So Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death.
Aa le nahiriri’ i Saole ama’e i lefo’ey; vaho napota’ Ionatane te tampa-kevetse ty rae’e hanjevoñ’ i Davide.
34 Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved over David, because his father had dishonored him.
Niavotse i fandam­bañañey t’Ionatane ampiforoforoañe, naho tsy nikama amy andro faharoe’ i volañeiy; ami’t’ie nirovetse i Davide vaho nisalaren-drae’e.
35 In the morning, Jonathan went out into the field to the appointment with David, and a young man was with him.
Ie amy loak’ àndroy, le niavotse mb’ an-kivoke añe t’Ionatane reketse ty anak’ ajalahy amy namantaña’e i Davidey.
36 He said to his young man, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” As the young man ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
Le hoe re amy ajalahiy: Akia, hitrifo an-day o ana-pale hahirirìkoo. Aa ie nilay i ajalahiy le nahirirì’e ty ana-pale hilosora’e amy ajalahiy.
37 When the young man came to the place where the arrow that Jonathan shot had landed, Jonathan called after the young man, and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”
Ie nipok’an-toe’ i ana-pale nahirirì’ Ionataney i ajalahiy, le hoe ty koi’ Ionatane amy ajalahiy, Tsy ambali’o ey hao i ana-paley?
38 Then Jonathan called after the young man, “Hurry, be quick, do not stay!” So Jonathan's young man gathered up the arrows and came to his master.
Le hoe ty fipaza’ Ionatane amy ajalahiy: Ma­lisà irehe, masikà, ko mitoboke ey. Le natonto’ i ajalahiy o ana-paleo vaho nimb’ amy talè’ey mb’eo.
39 But the young man did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
Fe tsy napota’ i ajalahiy; Ionatane naho i Davide avao ty nahafohiñe.
40 Jonathan gave his weapons to his young man and said to him, “Go, take them to the city.”
Natolo’ Ionatane amy ajalahiy o fialia’eo le nanoa’e ty hoe: Akia, endeso an-drova ao retoy.
41 As soon as the young man was gone, David stood up from behind the mound, lay facedown on the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another and wept together, with David weeping the more.
Ie añe i ajalahiy, le niongak’ an-toe’e atimo ao t’i Davide, naho nibabok’ an-daha­ra’e an-tane, niondreke intelo; naho nifañoroke iereo vaho nifampirovetse, i Davide ty nandikoatse.
42 Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the name of Yahweh and said, 'May Yahweh be between you and me, and between my descendants and your descendants, forever.'” Then David stood up and left, and Jonathan returned to the city.
Le hoe t’Ionatane amy Davide: Akia am-panintsiñañe, amy nititihan-tika an-tahina’ Iehovà ty hoe: Ho añivon-tika roe t’Iehovà, naho añivo’ o tirikoo naho o tiri’oo nainai’e. Aa le nienga re nañavelo mb’eo vaho nimoak’ an-drova ao t’Ionatane.
