1 Samuel 18
1 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
Kane Daudi osetieko wuoyo gi Saulo, chuny Daudi nowinjore gi mar Jonathan gi Daudi mine ohere mana kaka oherore owuon.
2 And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
Koa odiechiengno Saulo nokawo Daudi kendo ne ok ochako odok dalagi ir wuon-gi.
3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
Jonathan nokwongʼore gi Daudi nikech ne ohere mana kaka oherore owuon.
4 And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that [was] upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
Jonathan nogolo lawe mane orwako momiyo Daudi, nomiye lawe mar akor, gi liganglane bende, atungʼ gi okandane.
5 And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, [and] behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
Gimoro amora mane Saulo oore mondo otim, Daudi ne timo maber ahinya kuom mano Saulo nomiye rangʼiny mamalo e lweny. Ma nomiyo ji duto mor nyaka jotend lweny mag Saulo bende.
6 And it came to pass as they came, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of music.
Kane ji duogo dala bangʼ ka Daudi nosenego ja-Filistia, mon nowuok e mier matindo duto mag Israel mondo oromne Ruoth Saulo ka giwer kendo gimiel, ka igoyo tamborin gi asili.
7 And the women answered [one another] as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
Kane gimiel, ne giwer niya, “Saulo onego ji alufe, to Daudi onego ji alufe gi alufe.”
8 And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands; and [what] can he have more but the kingdom?
Saulo ne okecho ahinya nikech wendno nochwanye, mi nowacho e chunye niya, “Ere kaka gisemiyo Daudi alufe gi alufe; to an to gimiya mana alufe kende. Angʼo modongʼne makoro ok doyudi ma kata bedo ruoth?”
9 And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
Kochakore chiengʼno Saulo nochako bedo gi nyiego gi Daudi.
10 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and [there was] a javelin in Saul's hand.
Kinyne Nyasaye nochiwo thuolo ne roho marach mobiro gi teko modonjo kuom Saulo. Noyudo okoro wach e ode, ka Daudi to ne goyo nyatiti kaka ne ojagoyo pile. Saulo ne nigi tongʼ e lwete
11 And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David escaped from his presence twice.
kendo nodiro tongʼ kowacho e chunye niya, “Abiro chwowo Daudi mariw gi kor ot.” To Daudi nolengʼe nyadiriyo.
12 And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and had departed from Saul.
Saulo noluoro Daudi nikech Jehova Nyasaye noseweye, to ne ni kod Daudi.
13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
Omiyo nogolo Daudi mondo oa bute mi nokete mondo obed jatend jolweny alufu achiel, kendo Daudi notelonegi e lwenje mane gidhiye.
14 And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD [was] with him.
Gik moko ne dhi kode maber e gimoro amora mane otimo nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode.
15 Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
Kane Saulo oneno kaka odhi maber, mine oluore.
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.
To jo-Israel duto gi jo-Juda duto ne ohero Daudi nikech notelonegi e lwenjegi.
17 And Saul said to David, Behold, my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee for a wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD'S battles. For Saul said, Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
Saulo nowachone Daudi niya, “Ma en Merab nyara maduongʼ. Abiro miyigo mondo ikende; to mana ka inyalo kedona gi chir ka ikedo lwenje mag Jehova Nyasaye.” Nimar Saulo nowacho e chunye niya, “Ok abi keto lweta kuome. We jo-Filistia ema otim mano!”
18 And David said to Saul, Who [am] I? and what [is] my life, [or] my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
To Daudi nowachone ne Saulo niya, “Anto an ngʼa kata anywolana kata dhood gi wuora gin angʼo e Israel ma dimi abed or ruoth?”
19 But it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
Kane ndalo ochopo mane Merab nyar Saulo onego omi Daudi, ne omiye Adriel ja-Mehola mondo okende.
20 And Michal Saul's daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
Koro Mikal nyar Saulo nohero Daudi, omiyo kane ginyiso Saulo wachno, to Saulo nobedo mamor.
21 And Saul said, I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son-in-law, in [the one of] the two.
Saulo noparo e chunye niya, “Abiro miyego, mondo obedne obadho mondo omi jo-Filistia oyude.” Omiyo Saulo nowachone Daudi niya, “Koro in-gi thuolo mar ariyo mondo ibed ora.”
22 And Saul commanded his servants, [saying], Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
Eka Saulo nochiko jotichne niya, “Wuouru gi Daudi lingʼ-lingʼ kendo wachneuru ni, ‘Winji, ruoth mor kodi kendo jotije duto bende oheri koro bed ore.’”
23 And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you [a] light [thing] to be a king's son-in-law, seeing that I [am] a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
Neginwoyo wechego ne Daudi. To Daudi nowacho niya, “Uparo ni en wach mayot mar bedo or ruoth? An mana ngʼama odhier bende ok angʼera.”
24 And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spoke David.
Kane jotije Saulo onyise gima Daudi nowacho,
25 And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dower, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Saulo nodwoko niya, “Wachneuru Daudi ni, ‘Ruoth ok dwar ni inyombne, eka ikaw nyare, to odwaro mana ni mondo ikelne ringre jo-Filistia mia achiel (ma en pien duongʼ-gi), mondo ochulgo kuor ne wasike.’” Chenro mar Saulo ne en ni mondo Daudi opodhie lwet jo-Filistia.
26 And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law: and the days had not expired.
Kane jotij Saulo onyiso Daudi wechego nobedo mamor bedo or ruoth. Kane kinde moket pok orumo,
27 Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter for a wife.
Daudi gi joge nodhi monego jo-Filistia mia ariyo. Nokelo ringregi (ma en pien duongʼ-gi) kendo nochiwo kar kwan-ka duto mondo omi obed or ruoth. Eka Saulo nomiye Mikal nyare mi okendo.
28 And Saul saw and knew that the LORD [was] with David, and [that] Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him.
Kane Saulo ofwenyo ni Jehova Nyasaye nigi Daudi kendo ni Mikal nyare ohero Daudi.
29 And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul became David's enemy continually.
Saulo nomedo luore, kendo nosiko ka en jasike e ndalo duto mag ngimane.
30 Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass after they went forth, [that] David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much esteemed.
Jotend lweny mag jo-Filistia ne medo dhi e lweny, kendo kaka negimedo dhi e kaka Daudi bende ne locho moloyo jotelo mamoko mag Saulo kendo nomedo ngʼere.
