1 Samuel 24
1 And whanne Saul turnede ayen, aftir that he pursuede Filisteis, thei telden to hym, and seiden, Lo! Dauid is in the deseert of Engaddi.
Shure kwokudzoka kwaSauro kundodzinganisa vaFiristia, akaudzwa kuti, “Dhavhidhi ari muRenje reEni Gedhi.”
2 Therfor Saul took three thousinde of chosun men of al Israel, and yede to seke Dauid and hise men, yhe on moost brokun rochis, that ben `able to weie to wield geet aloone.
Saka Sauro akatora zviuru zvavarume vakatsaurwa kubva muIsraeri yose akasimuka akaenda kundotsvaka Dhavhidhi navanhu vake pedyo naMatombo eNgururu.
3 And he cam to the fooldis of scheep, that offriden hem silf to the wei goere. And there was a denne, in to which denne Saul entride, that he schulde purge the wombe; forsothe Dauid and hise men weren hid in the ynnere part of the denne.
Akasvika pamatanga amakwai munzira iyoyo; pakanga pane bako, uye Sauro akapindamo kuti azorore. Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakanga vari mukati kati mebako.
4 And the seruauntis of Dauid seiden to hym, Lo! the dai of which the Lord spak to the, Y schal bitake to thee thin enemy, that thou do to hym as it plesith in thin iyen. Therfor Dauid roos, and kittide the hemme of the mentil of Saul priuely.
Vanhu vakati, “Iri ndiro zuva rakataurwa naJehovha paakati kwamuri, ‘Ndichaisa vavengi vako mumaoko ako kuti uvaitire sezvaunoda.’” Ipapo Dhavhidhi akakambaira chinyararire asingaonekwi akacheka kona yenguo yaSauro.
5 Aftir these thingis Dauid smoot his herte, for he hadde kit awei the hemme of the mentil of Saul.
Shure kwaizvozvo Dhavhidhi akarohwa nehana nokuda kwokuti akanga acheka kona yenguo yaSauro.
6 And Dauid seide to hise men, The Lord be merciful to me, lest Y do this thing to my lord, the crist of the Lord, that Y sende myn hond `in to hym, for he is the crist of the Lord. The Lord lyueth, for no but the Lord smyte hym, ether his dai come, that he die, ether he go doun in to batel and perische, the Lord be merciful to me, that Y sende not myn hond in to the crist of the Lord.
Akati kuvanhu vake, “Jehovha ngaandidzivise kuti ndirege kuita chinhu chakadai kuna tenzi wangu, muzodziwa waJehovha.”
7 Forsothe Saul roos out of the denne, and yede in the weie bigunnun.
Namashoko aya Dhavhidhi akatsiura vanhu vake akasavatendera kuti varwise Sauro. Zvino Sauro akabva pabako akaenda hake.
8 Sotheli Dauid roos aftir hym, and he yede out of the denne, and criede aftir the bak of Saul, and seide, My lord, the kyng! And Saul bihelde bihinde him silf; and Dauid bowide hym silf lowe to the erthe, and worschipide.
Ipapo Dhavhidhi akabuda mubako akadanidzira kuna Sauro achiti, “Ishe wangu mambo!” Sauro akati acheuka, Dhavhidhi akakotamira pasi nechiso chake.
9 And he seide to Saul, Whi herist thou the wordis of men spekynge, Dauid sekith yuel ayens thee?
Akati kuna Sauro, “Sei muchiteerera vanhu pavanoti, ‘Dhavhidhi anotsvaka kukukuvadzai?’
10 Lo! to dai thin iyen siyen, that the Lord bitook thee in myn hond in the denne, and Y thouyte that Y wolde sle thee, but myn iye sparide thee; for Y seide, Y schal not holde forth myn hond in to my lord, which is the crist, `that is, anoyntid, of the Lord.
Nhasi mazvionera nameso enyu kuti Jehovha akuisai sei mumaoko angu muri mubako. Vamwe vandikurudzira kuti ndikuurayei, asi ndakuregererai, ndikati, ‘Handingasimudzi ruoko rwangu pamusoro patenzi wangu, nokuti ndiye muzodziwa waJehovha.’
11 But rathere, my fadir, se thou, and knowe the hemme of thi mentil in myn hond, for whanne Y kittide aweie the hemme of thi mentil, Y nolde holde forth myn hond in thee; perseyue thou, and see, for nether yuel nether wickidnesse is in myn hond, nether Y synnede ayens thee; but thou aspiest my lijf, that thou do it awei.
Tarirai, baba vangu, tarirai benga renguo yenyu riri muruoko rwangu! Ndacheka kona yenguo yenyu asi handina kukuurayai. Zvino chinzwisisai muzive kuti handina mhosva yokukuitirai zvakaipa kana kukumukirai. Handina kukutadzirai, asi imi muri kundivhima kuti mundiuraye.
12 The Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and the Lord venge me of thee; but myn hond be not in thee,
Jehovha ngaatonge pakati penyu nemi. Uye Jehovha ngaatsive zvakaipa zvamakaita kwandiri, asi ruoko rwangu harungarwi nemi.
13 as it is seid also in eld prouerbe, Wickidnesse schal go out of wickid men; therfor myn hond be not in thee.
Sezvinoreva tsumo yekare ichiti, ‘Kuno wakaipa kunobuda mabasa akaipa,’ saizvozvo ruoko rwangu harungarwi nemi.
14 `Whom pursuest thou, kyng of Israel, whom pursuest thou? Thou pursuest a deed hound, and a quyk fle.
“Ko, mambo waIsraeri akabuda kuzorwa naaniko? Ndianiko wamunodzinganisa? Imbwa yakafa here? Nhata here?
15 The Lord be iuge, and the Lord deme bitwixe me and thee, and se, and deme my cause, and delyuere me fro thin hond.
Jehovha ngaave mutongi wedu uye aone pakati penyu neni. Ngaatsvake mhaka yangu aiwane; ngaandiruramisire nokundirwira kubva muruoko rwenyu.”
16 Sotheli whanne Dauid hadde fillid spekynge siche wordis to Saul, Saul seide, Whether this is thi vois, my sone Dauid? And Saul reiside his vois, and wepte.
Dhavhidhi akati apedza kutaura mashoko aya, Sauro akabvunza akati, “Inzwi rako here, Dhavhidhi mwanakomana wangu?” Ipapo akachema kwazvo.
17 And he seide to Dauid, Thou art more iust than Y; for thou yauest goodis to me; forsothe Y yeldide yuelis to thee.
Akati, “Iwe wakarurama kupfuureni. Iwe wakandiitira zvakanaka, asi ini ndakakuitira zvakaipa.
18 And thou schewidist to me to dai, what goodis thou hast do to me, how the Lord bitook me in thin hond, and thou killidist not me.
Uchangobva kundirondedzera iye zvino zvakanaka zvawakandiitira; Jehovha akandiisa mumaoko ako, asi hauna kundiuraya.
19 For who, `whanne he fyndith his enemy, schal delyuere hym in good weie? But the Lord yelde to thee this while, for that, that thou wrouytist to dai in me.
Kana munhu akawanikidza muvengi wake angamurega achienda asina vanga here? Jehovha ngaakuripire zvakanaka nokuda kwezvawakandiitira.
20 And now, for Y woot, that thou schalt regne moost certeynli, and schalt haue in thin hond the rewme of Israel, swere thou to me in the Lord,
Ndinoziva zvirokwazvo kuti iwe uchava mambo uye umambo hweIsraeri huchasimbiswa mumaoko ako.
21 that thou do not a wei my seed aftir me, nether take a wey my name fro the hows of my fadir.
Zvino pika kwandiri naJehovha kuti iwe hauchazoparadzi zvizvarwa zvangu kana kuparadza zita rangu kubva pamhuri yababa vangu.”
22 And Dauid swoor to Saul. Therfor Saul yede in to his hows, and Dauid and hise men stieden to sikire placis.
Saka Dhavhidhi akapika kuna Sauro. Ipapo Sauro akadzokera kumusha kwake, asi Dhavhidhi navanhu vake vakaenda kunhare yavo.
