1 Samuel 20
1 Forsothe Dauid fledde fro Naioth, which is in Ramatha, and cam and spak bifor Jonathas, What haue Y do? what is my wickidnesse, and what is my synne ayens thi fadir, for he sekith my lijf?
Devid sitere na Naịọt nʼime Rema gbapụ ọsọ, chọta Jonatan, sị ya, “Ọ bụ gịnị ka m mere? Gịnị bụkwa ihe ọjọọ m mere? Olee ụzọ m si mejọọ nna gị, mere o ji na-achọsi ike ka ọ napụ m ndụ m?”
2 And Jonathas seide to hym, Fer be it fro thee, thou schalt not die, for my fadir schal not do ony thing greet ether litil, `no but he schewe firste to me; therfor my fadir kepte preuy fro me this word oneli, forsothe it schal not be.
Jonatan sịrị ya, “Nke a abụghị eziokwu. Ị gaghị anwụ! Ihe dị otu a adịghị nna m nʼobi, nʼihi na ọ na-agwa m ihe ọbụla ọ na-ezube ime, ọ bụladị ihe ukwu maọbụ ihe ntakịrị. Amakwaara m na ọ gaghị ezonarị m ihe dị otu a. Mba, ọ bụghị eziokwu.”
3 And eft he swoor to Dauid. And Dauid seide, Treuli thi fadir woot, that Y haue founde grace `in thin iyen, and he schal seie, Jonathas wite not this, lest perauenture he be sory; certis the Lord lyueth, `and thi soule lyueth, for, that Y seie so, Y and deeth ben departid oneli bi o degree.
Devid ṅụrụ iyi sị, “Nna gị maara nke ọma na m anatala amara nʼebe ị nọ, nʼihi ya, o kwuola nʼime onwe ya sị, ‘Agaghị m agwa Jonatan, ka ọ ghara iwute ya.’ Ma eji m Onyenwe anyị na mkpụrụobi gị na-aṅụ iyi na-asị na ọ bụ naanị otu nzọ ụkwụ dị ugbu a nʼetiti mụ na ọnwụ.”
4 And Jonathas seide to Dauid, What euer thing thi soule schal seie to me, Y schal do to thee.
Jonatan sịrị Devid, “Ihe ọbụla ị chọrọ ka m mee, aga m emere gị ya.”
5 And Dauid seide to Jonathas, Lo! calendis ben to morewe, and bi custom Y am wont to sitte bi the kyng to ete; therfor suffre thou me, `that Y be hid in the feeld `til to euentid of the thridde dai.
Devid sịrị ya, “Lee echi ga-abụ mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ, e kwesiri m iso eze rie nri. Ma hapụ m ka m ga zoo onwe m nʼọhịa tutu ruo uhuruchi nke nwanne echi.
6 If thi fadir biholdith, and axith me, thou schalt answere to hym, Dauid preiede me, that he schulde go swiftli into Bethleem, his citee, for solempne sacrifices ben there to alle the men of his lynage.
Ọ bụrụ na nna gị ajụọ ase m, sị ya, ‘Devid rịọsiri m arịrịọ ike ka m hapụ ya ka ọ gbaga Betlehem, bụ obodo ya, nʼihi a na-achụ aja nke dịrị agbụrụ ya kwa afọ.’
7 If he seith, Wel, pees schal be to thi seruaunt; forsothe if he is wrooth, wite thou, that his malice is fillid.
Ọ bụrụ na ọ sị, ‘Ọ dị mma,’ mgbe ahụ, udo ga-adịrị ohu gị. Ma ọ bụrụ na o wee iwe nke ukwuu, mara nʼezie na o zubere ime m ihe ọjọọ.
8 Therfor do thou mercy in to thi seruaunt, for thou madist me thi seruaunt to make with thee the boond of pees of the Lord; sotheli if ony wickidnesse is in me, sle thou me, and brynge thou not in me to thi fadir.
Ma gị onwe gị, meere ohu gị ebere, nʼihi na i meela ka o sooro gị baa nʼọgbụgba ndụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụrụ na ikpe mara m, gị onwe gị gbuo m. Nʼihi gịnị ka ị ga-eji nyefee m nʼaka nna gị?”
9 And Jonathas seide, Fer be this fro me, for it mai not be doon, that Y telle not to thee, if Y knowe certeynli, that the malice of my fadir is fillid ayens thee.
Jonatan sịrị, “Agaghị m eme ya, lee, a sịkwa na m maara na nna m na-achọ igbu gị, ọ bụ na m agaghị agwa gị?”
10 And Dauid answeride to Jonathas, Who schal telle to me, if in caas thi fadir answerith harde ony thing of me?
Devid jụrụ ya, “Onye ga-agwa m ma ọ bụrụ na nna gị aza gị okwu ike ike?”
11 And Jonathas seide to Dauid, Come thou, and go we forth in to the feeld. And whanne bothe hadden go in to the feeld,
Jonatan sịrị ya, “Bịa ka anyị pụọ gaa nʼọhịa.” Ya mere, ha abụọ pụrụ jee nʼọhịa.
12 Jonathas seide to Dauid, Lord God of Israel, if Y enquere the sentence of my fadir to morewe, ether in the nexte dai aftir, and ony `thing of good is of Dauid, and Y sende not anoon to thee,
Jonatan gwara Devid sị, “Eji m aha Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel na-ekwe nkwa na-asị gị, nʼoge ugbu a echi, maọbụ nwanne echi, aga m akpanyere nna m ụka banyere gị, meekwa ka ị mata ihe ọ na-eche banyere gị. Ọ bụrụ na obi dị ya mma nʼebe ị nọ, aga m eme ka ị mata.
13 and make knowun to thee, God do these thingis to Jonathas, and `adde these thingis. Forsothe if the malice of my fadir contynueth ayens thee, Y schal schewe to thin eere, and Y schal delyuere thee, that thou go in pees; and the Lord be with thee, as he was with my fadir.
Ma ọ bụrụ na nna m na-achọ imerụ gị ahụ, ka Onyenwe anyị mesoo Jonatan mmeso, otu ọbụla o si dị njọ, ma ọ bụrụ na m abịaghị gwa gị, zilaga gị ka ị laa nʼudo. Ka Onyenwe anyị nọnyere gị dịka o si nọnyere nna m.
14 And if Y lyue, do thou the mercies of the Lord to me;
Chetakwa, i ghaghị igosi m ịhụnanya na obi ebere Onyenwe anyị, ma ọ bụrụ na m anwụọ.
15 forsothe if Y am deed, `thou schalt not take awei thi mercy fro myn hows `til in to with outen ende; `and yif Y do it not, whanne the Lord schal drawe out bi the roote the enemyes of Dauid, ech man fro the lond, take he awei Jonathas fro his hows, and seke the Lord of the hond of the enemyes of Dauid.
E wezugakwala ịhụnanya gị na obi ebere gị site nʼebe ezinaụlọ m dị, ọ bụladị mgbe Onyenwe anyị bipụchara ndị iro Devid niile site nʼelu ụwa.”
16 Therfor Jonathas made boond of pees with the hows of Dauid, and the Lord souyte of the hond of enemyes of Dauid.
Jonatan na ụlọ Devid gbara ndụ. O kwuru sị, “Ka Onyenwe anyị kpee ndị iro Devid niile ikpe.”
17 And Jonathas addide to swere stedfastli to Dauid, for he louyde Dauid; for he louyde so Dauid, as his owne soule.
Jonatan mere ka Devid site nʼịhụnanya ọ hụrụ ya ṅụọra ya iyi. Nʼihi na Jonatan hụrụ Devid nʼanya dịka ọ hụrụ onwe ya.
18 And Jonathas seide to hym, `Calendis ben to morewe, and thou schalt be souyt;
Mgbe ahụ, Jonatan sịrị Devid, “Echi bụ mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ. A ga-ele anya gị, nʼihi na ọnọdụ gị ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu.
19 for thi sittyng schal be souyt til after to morewe. Therfor thou schalt go doun hastili, and thou schalt come in to the place, where thou schalt be hid in the day, whanne it is leueful to worche; and thou schalt sitte bisidis the stoon, `to which the name is Ezel.
Nwanne echi ya, nʼoge uhuruchi, gaa nʼebe ahụ i zoro onwe gị mgbe nsogbu a malitere, chere nʼebe ahụ, nʼakụkụ nkume Ezel.
20 And Y schal sende thre arowis bisidis that stoon, and Y schal caste as `excercisynge ether pleiynge me at a signe.
Aga m abịa gbaa àkụ atọ nʼakụkụ ya dịka a ga-asị na o nwere ihe m chọrọ iji ụta m gbata.
21 Y schal sende also and my child, and Y schal seie to hym, Go thou, and brynge to me the arewis.
Emesịa, aga m ezipu otu nwantakịrị sị ya, ‘Gaa chọta àkụ ndị ahụ.’ Ọ bụrụ na ị nụ ka m na-agwa ya okwu sị, ‘Lee àkụ ndị a dị nʼakụkụ azụ gị, chita ha ebe a,’ mgbe ahụ, pụta nʼihi, dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ, udo dịrị gị, egwu ọbụla adịghị.
22 If Y seie to the child, Lo! the arewis ben `with ynne thee, take thou tho; come thou to me, for pees is to thee, and no thing is of yuel, the Lord lyueth. Sotheli if Y speke thus to the child, Lo! the arowis ben biyende thee; go thou in pees, for the Lord deliuerede thee.
Ma ọ bụrụ na m agwa nwantakịrị ahụ okwu sị ya, ‘Lee, àkụ ahụ dị nʼihu gị,’ ọ pụtara na ị ghaghị isi nʼebe a pụọ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ezipụla gị.
23 Forsothe of the word, which thou and Y han spoke, the Lord be bitwixe me and thee til in to with outen ende.
Ma ihe banyere okwu ahụ anyị kwuru, cheta na Onyenwe anyị bụ onye akaebe, nʼetiti mụ na gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
24 Therfor Dauid was hid in the feeld; and the `calendis camen, and the kyng sat to ete breed.
Ya mere, Devid gara zoo onwe ya nʼọhịa. Mgbe oge mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ ruru, eze Sọl nọdụrụ ala iri nri.
25 And whanne the kyng hadde seete on his chaier bi custom, `which chaier was bisidis the wal, Jonathas roos, and sat `aftir Abner, and Abner sat at the side of Saul, and the place of Dauid apperide voide.
Ọ nọdụrụ ọdụ nʼakụkụ aja ụlọ, bụ ebe ọ dị mbụ anọ, na ncherita ihu Jonatan. Abna nọdụrụ nʼakụkụ Sọl, ma oche Devid na-anọ enweghị onye nọ ya.
26 And Saul spak not ony thing in that dai; for he thouyte, that `in hap it bifelde to hym, that he was not clene `nether purified.
Sọl ekwughị ihe ọbụla banyere ya nʼụbọchị ahụ, nʼihi na o chere na ọ dị ihe ndaba mere, nke tinyere Devid nʼọnọdụ adịghị ọcha. Sọl kwuru nʼobi ya sị, “E, ọ ghaghị ịbụ ihe kpatara ya.”
27 And whanne the secounde dai aftir the calendis hadde schyned, eft the place of Dauid apperide voide. And Saul seide to Jonathas his sone, Whi cometh not the sone of Isai, nether yisterdai, nether to dai to ete?
Ma nʼechi ya, bụ abalị nke abụọ nke ọnwa ọhụrụ, ọnọdụ Devid tọgbọrọ nʼefu ọzọ. Mgbe ahụ, Sọl sịrị nwa ya Jonatan, “Gịnị mere nwa Jesi abịaghị iso rie nri, ma ụnyaahụ ma taa?”
28 And Jonathas answeride to Saul, He preiede me mekeli, that he schulde go in to Bethleem;
Jonatan zara sị, “Devid rịọrọ sị m nye ya ike ka ọ gaa Betlehem.
29 and he seide, Suffre thou me, for solempne sacrifice is in my citee; oon of my britheren clepide me; now therfor if Y foond grace `in thin iyen, Y schal go soone, and `Y schal se my britheren; for this cause he cometh not to the `table of the kyng.
Ọ sịrị m, ‘Kwere ka m gaa nʼihi na ndị ezinaụlọ anyị nwere aja mmemme ha na-eme nʼobodo. Nwanne m nwoke nyere m iwu sị m na m aghaghị ịbịa. Ọ bụrụ na m ahụta amara nʼebe ị nọ, biko kwere ka m gaa hụ ụmụnne m.’ Ọ bụ nke a mere ọ bịaghị na tebul eze.”
30 Forsothe Saul was wrooth ayens Jonathas, and seide to hym, Thou sone of a womman `rauyschynge at her owne wille a man, whether Y woot not, that thou louest the sone of Ysay in to thi confusioun, and in to the confusioun of thi schendful modir?
Iwe were Sọl nke ukwuu. Ọ gwara Jonatan okwu nʼiwe sị ya, “Gị nwa nke nwanyị na-enupu isi, nke uche ya gbagọrọ agbagọ. Ị na-eche na m amaghị na i dịnyere nwa Jesi si otu a wetara onwe gị na nne gị ihe ihere?
31 For in alle the daies in whiche the sone of Isai lyueth on erthe, thou schalt not be stablischid, nether thi rewme; therfor `riyt now sende thou, and brynge hym to me, for he is the sone of deeth.
Nʼihi na ụbọchị niile nwa Jesi dị ndụ nʼụwa a, ọnọdụ gị na alaeze gị agaghị eguzosi ike. Ugbu a, pụọ, zipụ ozi kpọtara m ya ka m gbuo ya!”
32 Sotheli Jonathas answeride to Saul his fadir, and seide, Whi schal he die? what hath he do?
Jonatan jụrụ nna ya Sọl sị, “Gịnị ka o mere? Nʼihi gịnị ka a ga-eji mee ka ọ nwụọ?”
33 And Saul took the spere, that he schulde smyte hym, and Jonathas vndirstood, that it was determynd of his fadir, that Dauid schulde be slayn.
Ma Sọl tụrụ ùbe o ji nʼaka ya ka o jiri ya tugbuo Jonatan, ma Jonatan zere ya. Nke a mere ka Jonatan mata nʼezie na nna ya na-achọ igbu Devid.
34 Therfor Jonathas roos fro the table in `the ire of woodnesse, and he ete not breed in the secounde dai of calendis; for he was sori on Dauid, for his fadir hadde schent him.
Jonatan si na tebul ahụ bilie nʼoke iwe pụọ, o righịkwa nri nʼụbọchị nke abụọ nke mmemme ahụ, nʼihi na omume ihere nna ya mesoro Devid wutere ya hie nne.
35 And whanne the morewtid `hadde schyned, Jonathas cam in to the feeld, and a litil child with hym, bi the couenaunt of Dauid.
Nʼụtụtụ echi ya, dịka ha kara aka, Jonatan gara nʼọhịa, ya na nwantakịrị nwoke so gaa.
36 And Jonathas seide to his child, Go thou, and brynge to me the arowis whiche Y caste. And whanne the child hadde runne, he castide another arowe biyende the child.
Ọ sịrị nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ, “Gbara ọsọ gaa chọta àkụ ndị ahụ niile m na-agba.” Mgbe nwantakịrị ahụ na-agba ọsọ na-aga, Jonatan gbapụrụ àkụ, gbafee ya nʼihu nwantakịrị ahụ.
37 Therfor the child cam to the place of the arowe which Jonathas hadde sent; and Jonathas criede bihynde the `bak of the child, and seide, Lo! the arowe is not there, certis it is biyende thee.
Mgbe nwokorobịa ahụ na-ejeru nso ebe àkụ ahụ Jonatan gbara dị, Jonatan kpọkuru ya sị ya, “Àkụ ahụ dị nʼihu gị.”
38 And Jonathas criede eft bihynde the bak of the child, `and seide, Haste thou swiftli, stonde thou not. Therfor the child gaderide the arowis of Jonathas, and brouyte to his lord,
Mgbe ahụ, o tiri mkpu sị, “Mee ngwangwa! Gawa ọsịịsọ! Eguzokwala!” Nwokorobịa ahụ chịkọtara àkụ ndị ahụ niile gbaghachikwute nna ya ukwu.
39 and outerli he wiste not what was doon; for oonli Jonathas and Dauid knewen the thing.
Ma nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ aghọtaghị ihe Jonatan mere; ma Jonatan na Devid maara ihe gara.
40 Therfor Jonathas yaf hise armeris to the child, and seide to hym, Go thou, bere in to the citee.
Jonatan nyere nwokorobịa ahụ ụta ya na àkụ ndị ahụ ka ọ chighachi ha nʼobodo.
41 And whanne the child hadde go, Dauid roos fro the place that `yede to the south; and he felde low `in to the erthe, and worschipide the thridde tyme, and thei kissiden hem silf to gidere, and `wepten to gidere; forsothe Dauid wepte more.
Mgbe nwokorobịa ahụ lara, Devid biliri site nʼakụkụ ndịda nkume ahụ ebe o zoro onwe kpuo ihu ya nʼala, kpọọ isiala ugboro atọ, nʼihu Jonatan. Ha suritere onwe ha ọnụ, bekọkwaa akwa. Ma Devid kwara akwa karịa.
42 Therfor Jonathas seide to Dauid, Go thou in pees; what euer thingis we bothe han swoore in the `name of the Lord, `and seiden, `The Lord be bitwixe me and thee, and bitwixe my seed and thi seed til in to with outen ende, `be stidfast. And Dauid roos, and yede, but also Jonathas entride in to the citee.
Nʼikpeazụ, Jonatan gwara Devid okwu sị, “Gaa nʼudo, nʼihi na anyị ejirila aha Onyenwe anyị ṅụọ iyi ịbụ enyi nʼetiti onwe anyị, na-asị, ‘Onyenwe anyị bụ onye akaebe nʼebe mụ na gị, na nʼebe ụmụ ụmụ m, na ụmụ ụmụ gị nọ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’” Ha kewara. Devid malitere ịpụ, ma Jonatan tụgharịrị baa nʼobodo.
