1 Samuel 21
1 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said to him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?
Niheo mb’amy Nobe mb’ amy Akimeleke mpisoroñe mb’eo t’i Davide le nihondrahondra mb’amy Davide mb’eo t’i Akimeleke, nanao ty hoe: Manao akore te ihe jòriñe tsy ama’ondaty?
2 And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said to me, Let no man know any thing of the business about which I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place.
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Akimeleke mpisoroñe; namantok’ ahy i mpanjakay ami’ty hoe: Ko ampahoniñe’o ndra ia’ia o añirahako azoo, i nandiliako azoy; vaho fa niraheko mb’an-koe’ an-koe o ajalahio.
3 Now therefore what is under thy hand? give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or what there is present.
Aa le ino ty ambane fità’o? vonga-mofo lime? atoloro an-tañako, ndra ze zoeñe ao.
4 And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpisoroñey amy Davide: Tsy ama’ mofo tsotra, fa mofo miavake avao naho toe tsy nañarine ampela o ajalahio.
5 And David answered the priest, and said to him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i Davide amy mpisoroñey, Toe sinebañe tsy ho ama’ay o ampelao ze andro telo izay; ie niakatse mb’etoa, le miavake ty horo’ o ajalahio ndra te tsotra ty lia, àntsak’ anito te hiavake o horo’ iareoo.
6 So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the showbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.
Aa le tinolo’ i mpisoroñey mofo miavake; fa tsy tao ty mofo naho tsy i mofo miatreke natsoake boak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà nasolo ty mofo mafana amy andro nampitsoahañe azeiy.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chief of the herdmen that belonged to Saul.
(Teo amy andro zay ty mpitoro’ i Saole, tambatse aolo’ Iehovà; i Doege ty tahina’e, nte-Edome, mpiaolo o mpiara’ i Saoleo.)
8 And David said to Ahimelech, And is there not here under thy hand a spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king’s business required haste.
Le hoe t’i Davide amy Akimeleke: Tsy ho ambanem-pità’o atoa hao ty lefoñe ndra fibara? izaho tsy ninday ndra fibara ndra o fialiakoo amy te nimeke ty raha’ i mpanjakay.
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other except that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it to me.
Le hoe i mpisoroñey: ty fibara’ i Goliate nte-Pilisty zinevo’o am-bavatane’ i Elà, ingo, miforokoko an-damba an-kalo’ o kitambeo; rambeso t’ie no’o; fa tsy aman-tovo’e ty atoa. Le hoe t’i Davide, Tsy eo ty mañirinkiriñe aze, atoloro ahy.
10 And David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
Niongak’ amy zao t’i Davide, nibioñe mb’eo ami’ty fihembaña’e i Saole vaho nimb’e Akise mpanjaka’ i Gate mb’eo.
11 And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
Le hoe ty asa’ o mpitoro’ i Akiseo ama’e: Tsy i Davide mpanjaka’ i taney hao toke? Tsy ie ty nitakasie’ iereo an-tsinjake, ty hoe: Fa namono ty arivo’e t’i Saole, naho ty aleale’e t’i Davide?
12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was greatly afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
Nahaja’ i Davide an-tro’e ao i entañe zay, vaho nihembaña’e t’i Akise mpanjaka’ i Gate.
13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and pretended to be mad in their hands, and made marks on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.
Aa le novae’e añatrefa’ iereo ty vinta’e nanao sare gege am-pità’ iareo, nanokitsokitse an-dalam-bey eo naho nampiorihe’e am-bolon-tsoma’e ty ìve’e.
14 Then said Achish to his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad: why then have ye brought him to me?
Le hoe t’i Akise amo mpitoro’eo, Heheke te seretse t’indaty tiañe; ino ty nandesa’ areo aze amako?
15 Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?
Mipay ondaty gege hao iraho te nandesa’ areo atoy hihisa ami’ty hagegea’e añatrefako etoa? Himoak’ añ’ anjombako ao hao t’indaty tia?
