1 Samuel 18
1 And it was doon, whanne Dauid `hadde endid to speke to Saul, the soule of Jonathas was glued togidre to the soule of Dauid, and Jonathas louyde hym as his owne soule.
Daudi alipokuwa amemaliza kuongea na Sauli, roho ya Yonathani ilishikana na roho ya Daudi, na Yonathani akampenda kama roho yake mwenyewe.
2 And Saul took Dauid in that dai, and grauntide not `to hym, `that he schulde turne ayen in to `the hows of his fadir.
Sauli akamweka kazini Daudi siku hiyo, hakumwacha arudi nyumbani kwa baba yake.
3 Forsothe Jonathas and Dauid maden boond of pees, `that is, swerynge euerlastynge frenschip; for Jonathas louyde Dauid as his owne soule;
Kisha Yonathani na Daudi wakafanya makubaliano ya urafiki kwa sababu Yonathani alimenda kama roho yake mwenyewe.
4 for whi Jonathas dispuylide him silf fro the coote `in which he was clothid, and yaf it to Dauid, and hise othere clothis, `til to his swerd and bouwe, and `til to the girdil.
Yonathani akavua kanzu aliyokuwa amevaa na kumpa Daudi, akampa na vazi lake la kivita, pamoja na upanga, upinde, na mshipi.
5 Also Dauid yede out to alle thingis, to what euer thingis Saul `hadde sent hym, and he gouernede hym silf prudentli; and Saul settide hym ouer the men of batel, and `he was acceptid, `ether plesaunt, in the iyen of al the puple, and moost in the siyt of `the seruauntis of Saul.
Daudi alikwenda popote ambapo Sauli alimtuma, naye alifanikiwa. Sauli akamteua Daudi awe mkuu wa wapiganaji. Jambo hili lilipendeza machoni pa watu na katika macho ya watumishi wa Sauli.
6 Forsothe whanne Dauid turnede ayen, whanne `the Filistei was slayn, and bar the heed of `the Filistei in to Jerusalem, wymmen yeden out of alle the citees of Israel, and sungen, and ledden queris, ayens the comyng of king Saul, in tympans of gladnesse, and in trumpis.
Wakati wanarudi nyumbani kutoka kuwapiga Wafilisti, wanawake walitoka miji yote ya Israeli, wakiimba na kucheza, ili kukutana na mfalme Sauli, wakiwa na matowazi, wenye furaha, na wakiwa na ala za muziki.
7 And the wymmen sungen, pleiynge, and seiynge, Saul smoot a thousynde, and Dauid smoot ten thousynde.
Hao wanawake waliimba kwa kupokezana huku wakicheza; Wakiimba: “Sauli ameua maelfu yake, Na Daudi ameua makumi elfu yake.”
8 Saul was wrooth greetli, and this word displeside `in his iyen; and he seide, Thei yauen ten thousynde to Dauid, and `thei yauen a thousynde to me; what leeueth to hym, no but the rewme aloone?
Sauli alikasirika sana, na wimbo huu haukumpendeza. Naye akasema, “Wamemsifia Daudi juu ya makumi elfu, lakini wamenisifia melfu tu mimi! Atapata kitu gani zaidi isipokuwa ufalme?
9 Therfor Saul bihelde Dauid not with `riytful iyen, `fro that dai and afterward.
Kuanzia siku hiyo na kuendelea, Sauli alimuangalia Daudi kwa mashaka.
10 Sotheli aftir the tother dai a wickid spirit of God asailide Saul, and he propheciede in the myddis of his hows.
Kesho yake yule roho ya ubaya kutoka kwa Mungu ikamwingia Sauli kwa nguvu. Naye akawa anafanya kama mwendawazimu nyumbani mwake. Hivyo Daudi akapiga kifaa chake, kama alivyofanya kila siku. Sauli alikuwa na mkuki wake mkononi.
11 Forsothe Dauid harpide with his hond, as bi alle daies; and Saul helde a spere, and caste it, and gesside that he myyte prene Dauid with the wal, that is, perse with the spere, so that it schulde passe til to the wal; and Dauid bowide `fro his face the secounde tyme.
Sauli akatupa mkuki wake, kwani alifikiri, “Nitampigilia ukutani.” Lakini Daudi mara mbili aliepa uwepo wa Sauli.
12 And Saul dredde Dauid, for the Lord was with hym, and hadde go awei fro him silf.
Sauli alimwogopa Daudi, kwa sababu BWANA alikuwa pamoja naye, lakini hakuwa na Sauli tena.
13 Therfor Saul remouide Dauid fro hym silf, and made hym tribune on a thousynde men; and Dauid yede out and entride in `the siyt of the puple.
Hivyo Sauli alimuondoa Daudi mbele yake na akamteua kuwa kamanda wa kikosi cha askari elfu moja. Kwa namna hii David alitoka na kuingia mbele ya watu.
14 And Dauid dide warli in alle hise weies, and the Lord was with hym;
Daudi alikuwa akistawi kwa mambo yake yote, maana BWANA alikuwa pamoja naye.
15 and so Saul siy that Dauid was ful prudent, and he bigan to be war of Dauid.
Sauli alipoona kwamba Daudi anastawi, alimwogopa.
16 Forsothe al Israel and Juda louyden Dauid; for he entride and yede out bifor hem.
Lakini Israeli yote na Yuda walimpenda Daudi, maana alitoka na kuingia mbele yao.
17 And Saul seide to Dauid, Lo! `my more douytir Merob, Y schal yiue her wijf to thee; oneli be thou a strong man, and fiyte thou the `batels of the Lord. Forsothe Saul `arettide, and seide, Myn hond be not in hym, but the hond of Filisteis be on hym.
Kisha Sauli akamwambia Daudi, “Huyu hapa ni binti yangu mkubwa Merabu. Nitakupatia awe mke wako. Ila tu uwe jasiri kwa ajili yangu na upigane vita vya BWANA.” Maana Sauli alifikiri, “Usije mkono wangu ukawa juu yake, ila acha mkono wa Wafilisti uwe juu yake.”
18 Sotheli Dauid seide to Saul, Who am Y, ether what is my lijf, ether the meynee of my fadir in Israel, that Y be maad the `sone in lawe of the kyng?
Daudi akamwambia Sauli, “Mimi ni nani, na maisha yangu yana nini, au hata maisha ya familia ya baba yangu katika Israeli, kiasi cha kuwa mkwe wa mfalme?” 1 Samweli 18-19-19
19 Forsothe the tyme `was maad whanne Merob, the douyter of Saul, `ouyte to be youun to Dauid, sche was youun wijf to Hadriel Molatite.
Lakini wakati ambao Merabu, binti Sauli, ilipasa kuwa ameolewa na Daudi, aliozwa kwa Adrieli Mmeholathi.
20 Forsothe Dauid louide Mychol, the douytir of Saul; and it was teld to Saul, and it pleside hym.
Lakini Mikali, binti Sauli, alimpenda Daudi. Na watu walimwambia Sauli, na jambo hilo likampendeza.
21 And Saul seide, Y schal yyue hir to hym, that it be to hym in to sclaundir, and the hond of Filisteis be on hym. Therfor Saul seide to Dauid, In `twei douytris thou schalt be my sone in lawe to dai.
Ndipo Sauli akafikiri, “Nitampatia huyu awe mke wake, ili uwe mtego kwake, na hivyo mkono wa Wafilisti pengine uwe juu yake.” Kwa hiyo Sauli akamwambia Daudi mara ya pili, “Wewe utakuwa mkwe wangu.”
22 And Saul comaundide to hise seruauntis, Speke ye to Dauid, while it `is hid fro me, and seie ye, Lo! thou plesist the king, and alle hise seruauntis louen thee; now therfor be thou hosebonde of the `douytir of the kyng.
Sauli akawaamuru watumishi wake, “Ongeeni na Daudi kwa njia ya siri, na mseme, 'Tazama, mfalme anakufurahia, na watumishi wake wote wanakupenda. Sasa basi, uwe mkwe wa mfalme.'”
23 And the seruauntis of Saul spaken alle these wordis in the eeris of Dauid. And Dauid seide, Whether it semeth litil to you `to be sone in lawe of the kyng? Forsothe Y am a pore man, and a feble.
Hivyo watumishi wa Sauli wakayasema maneno haya kwa Daudi. Na Daudi akasema, “Kwenu ninyi mnaona ni jambo dogo kuwa mkwe wa mfalme, mimi ni maskini, na heshima yangu ni ndogo.”
24 And the seruauntis telden to Saul, and seiden, Dauid spak siche wordis.
Watumishi wa Sauli wakarudisha kwake taarifa ya maneno ambayo Daudi aliyasema.
25 Sotheli Saul seide, Thus speke ye to Dauid, The kyng hath no nede to yiftis for spowsails, no but onely to an hundrid prepucies, `that is, mennus yerdis vncircumcidid, `of Filisteis, that veniaunce be maad of the kyngis enemyes. Certis Saul thouyte to bitake Dauid in to the hondis of Filisteis.
Na Sauli akasema, “Hivi ndivyo mtakavyo mwambia Daudi, 'Mfalme haitaji mahari yoyote, isipokuwa govi mia moja za Wafilisti, ili ajilipize kisasi kwa adui wa mfalme.”' Basi Sauli alifikiri atamwangusha Daudi kwa mkono wa Wafilisti.
26 And whanne the seruauntis of Saul hadden teld to Dauid the wordis, whiche Saul hadde seid, the word pleside `in the iyen of Dauid, that he schulde be maad the kyngis son in lawe.
Watumishi wake walipomwambia maneno haya, yakamvutia Daudi awe mkwe wa mfalme.
27 And aftir a fewe daies Dauid roos, and yede in to Acharon, with the men that weren with hym, and he killide of Filisteis twei hundrid men; and brouyte `the prepucies of hem, and noumbride tho to the kyng, that he schulde be the kyngis sone in lawe. And so Saul yaf Mycol, his douyter, wiif to hym.
Kabla siku hizo hazijapita, Daudi aliondoka na watu wake na kuwaua Wafilisti mia mbili. Daudi akazileta govi zao, na kumkadhi mfalme kulingana na idadi yake, ili aweze kufanyika mkwe wa mfalme. Kwa hiyo Sauli akamwoza Mikali, binti yake, awe mkewe.
28 And Saul siy, and vndirstood, that the Lord was with Dauid.
Basi Sauli aliona na kufahamu kwamba BWANA alikuwa pamoja na Daudi. Mikali, binti Sauli, akampenda Daudi.
29 Forsothe Mychol, `the douyter of Saul, louide Dauid, and Saul bigan more to drede Dauid; and Saul was maad enemye to Dauid in alle daies.
Sauli akazidi kumwogopa Daudi. Sauli akawa adui wa Daudi daima.
30 And the princes of Filisteis yeden out; forsothe fro the bigynnyng of her goyng out Dauyd bar hym silf more warli than alle the men of Saul; and the name of Dauid was maad ful solempne.
Ndipo wakuu wa Wafilisti wakajitokeza kwa ajili ya vita, na mara zote walipojitokeza Daudi alifanikiwa zaidi kuliko watumishi wote wa Sauli, hivyo jina lake likapata heshima kubwa.
