1 Samuel 22
1 Therfor Dauid yede fro thennus, and fledde in to the denne of Odollam; and whanne hise britheren, and al the hows of his fadir hadden herd this, thei camen doun thidur to hym.
Dawid guan fii Gat kɔtɛw ɔbodan a ɛwɔ Adulam no mu. Ankyɛ biara na ne nuanom mmarima ne ne fifo bi kɔkaa ne ho wɔ hɔ.
2 And alle men that weren set in angwisch, and oppressid with othere mennus dette, and in bittir soule, camen togidere to hym; and he was maad the prince `of hem, and as foure hundrid men weren with hym.
Afoforo bi nso kɔkaa ne ho wɔ hɔ. Na saa nnipa no yɛ nnipa a ɔhaw da wɔn so anaa wɔn a wɔdede aka ne wɔn a asetena nkɔ wɔn yiye. Wɔbae ara kosii sɛ Dawid bɛyɛɛ ɔkannifo maa nnipa bɛyɛ sɛ ahannan.
3 And Dauid yede forth fro thennus in to Masphat, which is of Moab; and he seide to the kyng of Moab, Y preye, dwelle my fadir and my modir with you, til Y wite what thing God schal do to me.
Akyiri no, Dawid kɔɔ Mispe a ɛwɔ Moab kobisaa Moabhene se, “Wobɛma mʼagya ne me na abɛtena wo nkyɛn kosi sɛ mehu nea Onyankopɔn bɛyɛ ama me ana?”
4 And he lefte hem bifor the face of the kyng of Moab; and thei dwelliden at hym in alle daies, `in whiche Dauid was in `the forselet, ether stronghold.
Ɔhene no penee so maa Dawid awofo tenaa Moab mmere dodow a na Dawid te ne hintabea hɔ.
5 And Gad, the profete, seide to Dauid, Nyle thou dwelle in `the forselet; go thou forth, and go in to the lond of Juda. And Dauid yede forth, and cam in to the forest of Areth.
Nanso odiyifo Gad ka kyerɛɛ Dawid se, “Ntena hintabea hɔ. Kɔ Yuda asase so.” Enti Dawid kɔɔ Heret kwae mu.
6 And Saul herde, that Dauid apperide, and the men that weren with hym. Forsothe whanne Saul dwellide in Gabaa, and was in the wode which is in Rama, and `helde a spere in the hond, and alle hise seruauntis stoden aboute hym,
Afei Saulo tee sɛ wɔahu Dawid ne ne nkurɔfo. Saa bere no, na ɔhene no te nnyedua bi ase wɔ Gibea bepɔw so a okura ne peaw na ne mpanyimfo atwa ne ho ahyia.
7 he seide to hise seruauntis that stoden nyy hym, The sones of Gemyny, here me now; whether the sone of Ysai schal yyue to alle you feeldis and vyneris, and schal make alle you tribunes and centuriouns?
Osee wɔn sɛ, “Muntie, Benyamin mmarima! Dawid ahyɛ mo mfuw ne bobe nturo ho bɔ bi ana? Wahyɛ mo bɔ sɛ mobɛyɛ nʼasafohene wɔ nʼakofo so ana?
8 For alle ye han swore, ether conspirid, togidere ayens me, and noon is that tellith to me; moost sithen also my sone hath ioyned boond of pees with the sone of Ysai; noon is of you, that sorewith `for my stide, nether that tellith to me, for my sone hath reisid my seruaunt ayens me, settynge tresoun to me `til to dai.
Ɛno nti na mo nyinaa abɔ pɔw atia me yi? Na amfa mo mu biara ho sɛ morenka biribi nkyerɛ me se me ara me babarima wɔ Dawid afa. Munnwen ho! Me ara me babarima hyɛ mʼakoa nkuran sɛ ɔnkɔtɛw me mpɛ me nkum me!”
9 Sotheli Doech of Ydumye answeride, that stood nyy, and was the firste among `the seruauntis of Saul, and seide, Y siy `the sone of Ysai in Nobe, at Achymelech, preest, the sone of Achitob;
Ɛhɔ na Edomni Doeg a na ɔne Saulo akofo gyina hɔ no kae se, “Mihuu Yisai ba no sɛ ɔbae Ahitub ba Ahimelek nkyɛn wɔ Nob.
10 which counseilide the Lord for Dauid, and yaf meetis `to hym, but also he yaf to Dauid the swerd of Goliath Filistei.
Ahimelek bisaa Awurade nea Dawid nyɛ. Ɔsan maa no nnuan, na ɔde Filistini Goliat afoa no kaa ho maa no.”
11 Therfor the kyng sente to clepe Achymelech, the preest, `the sone of Achitob, and al the hows of his fadir, of preestis that weren in Nobe; whiche alle camen to the kyng.
Ɔhene no somaa sɛ wɔnkɔfa ɔsɔfo Ahimelek ne ne fifo a na wɔyɛ asɔfo wɔ Nob no nyinaa mmra.
12 And Saul seide to Achymelech, Here, thou sone of Achitob.
Wɔbae no, Saulo kae se, “Tie! Ahitub ba.” Obuae se, “Nana asɛm bɛn.”
13 Which answeride, Lord, Y am redi. And Saul seide to hym, Whi hast thou conspirid ayens me, thou, and the sone of Ysai, and yauest looues and a swerd to hym, and councelidist the Lord for hym, that he schulde rise ayens me, and he dwellith a tretour `til to dai?
Na Saulo bisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wo ne Dawid apam me ti so, na womaa no brodo ne afoa, san bisaa Awurade maa no. Adɛn nti na wohyɛ no nkuran sɛ ɔnyɛ adɔm ntia me na ɔmmɛtow nhyɛ me so wɔ ha?”
14 And Achymelech answeride to the kyng, and seide, And who among alle thi seruauntis is as Dauid feithful, and the sone in lawe `of the kyng, and goynge at thi comaundement, and gloriouse in thin hows?
Ahimelek buae se, “Nana, mesrɛ mibisa sɛ, wʼasomfo yi nyinaa mu no, obi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ nokwafo te sɛ wʼase Dawid ana? Hwɛ ɔyɛ wʼawɛmfo nyinaa so safohene, na wobu no yiye wɔ wo fidua mu.
15 Whether Y bigan to dai to counsele the Lord for hym? Fer be this fro me; suppose not the kyng ayens his seruaunt `siche a thing in al `the hows of my fadir; for thi seruaunt knew not ony thing, ether litil ethir greet, of this cause.
Ɛnyɛ saa da no ne da a edi kan a mabisa Awurade ama no. Dabi da! Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de sobo bɔ ne somfo ne ne fifo, efisɛ wʼakoa nnim saa asɛm yi ho biribiara.”
16 And the kyng seide, Achymelech, thou schalt die bi deeth, thou, and al the hows of thi fadir.
Na ɔhene kae se, “Ɔkwan biara so, wubewu. Ahimelek, wo ne wo fifo nyinaa bewuwu.”
17 And the kyng seide to men able to be sent out, that stoden aboute hym, Turne ye, and sle the preestis of the Lord, for the hond of hem is with Dauid; and thei wisten that he fledde, and thei schewiden not to me. Sotheli the seruauntis of the kyng nolden holde forth her hond in to the preestis of the Lord.
Na ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ nʼawɛmfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no se, “Munkunkum Awurade asɔfo no nyinaa, efisɛ wɔn nso akɔ Dawid afa. Na wonim sɛ ɔreguan, nanso wɔanka ankyerɛ me.” Nanso na ɔhene asraafo no mpɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka Awurade asɔfo no.
18 And the kyng seide to Doech, Turne thou, and hurle in to the preestis of the Lord. And Doech of Ydumee turnede, and hurlide in to the preestis, and stranglide in that dai foure score and fyue men, clothid with `ephoth of lynnun cloth.
Enti ɔhene hyɛɛ Doeg se, “Dan wo ho na kunkum asɔfo no.” Enti Edomni Doeg dan ne ho kunkum wɔn. Da no, okum mmarima a na wɔhyɛ sirikyi asɔfotade aduɔwɔtwe anum.
19 Forsothe he smoot Nobe, the citee of preestis, by the scharpnesse of swerd, men and wymmen, litle children and soukynge, and oxe, and asse, and sheep, bi the scharpnesse of swerd.
Afei, ɔkɔɔ Nob a ɛyɛ asɔfo no kurom, kokunkum asɔfo no fifo mmarima, mmea, mmofra ne nkokoaa, anantwi, mfurum ne nguan nyinaa.
20 Forsothe o sone of Achymelech, sone of Achitob, ascapide, of which sone the name was Abiathar; and he fledde to Dauid,
Na Ahitub ba Ahimelek babarima baako a wɔfrɛ no Abiatar guan kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn.
21 and telde to hym that Saul hadde slayn the preestis of the Lord.
Bere a ɔka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ Saulo akunkum Awurade asɔfo no,
22 And Dauid seide to Abiathar, Sotheli Y wiste, `that is, Y coniectide, ether dredde, in that dai, that whanne Doech of Ydumee was there, he wolde telle with out doute to Saul; Y am gilti of alle the lyues of thi fadir.
Dawid teɛɛ mu se, “Na minim! Bere a mihuu Doeg wɔ hɔ saa da no, na minim sɛ ɔbɛka akyerɛ Saulo. Mprempren, mama wʼagya fifo nyinaa awuwu.
23 Dwelle thou with me, drede thou not; if ony man sekith thi lijf, he schal seke also my lijf, and thou schalt be kept with me.
Wo ne me ntena ha, na mede me nkwa bɛbɔ wo ho ban, efisɛ onipa koro no ara na ɔrehwehwɛ yɛn baanu akum yɛn.”
