1 Samuel 21

1 And David cometh in to Nob, unto Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembleth at meeting David, and saith to him, 'Wherefore [art] thou thyself alone, and no man with thee?'

Dafidi sì wá sí Nobu sọ́dọ̀ Ahimeleki àlùfáà, Ahimeleki sì bẹ̀rù láti pàdé Dafidi, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Èéha ti rí tí o fi ṣe ìwọ nìkan, àti tí kò sì sí ọkùnrin kan tí ó pẹ̀lú rẹ?”

2 And David saith to Ahimelech the priest, 'The king hath commanded me a matter, and he saith unto me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I am sending thee, and which I have commanded thee; and the young men I have caused to know at such and such a place;

Dafidi sì wí fún Ahimeleki àlùfáà pé, “Ọba pàṣẹ iṣẹ́ kan fún mi, ó sì wí fún mi pé, ‘Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkan mọ ìdí iṣẹ́ náà ti mo rán ọ, àti èyí tí èmi ti pàṣẹ fún ọ.’ Èmi sì yan àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi sí ibí báyìí.

3 and now, what is there under thy hand? five loaves give into my hand, or that which is found.'

Ǹjẹ́ kín ni ó wà ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀? Fún mi ni ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún tàbí ohunkóhun tí o bá rí.”

4 And the priest answereth David, and saith, 'There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if the youths have been kept only from women.'

Àlùfáà náà sí dá Dafidi lóhùn ó sì wí pé, “Kò sí àkàrà mìíràn lọ́wọ́ mi bí kò ṣe àkàrà mímọ́. Kìkì pé bi àwọn ọmọkùnrin bá ti pa ara wọn mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ obìnrin!”

5 And David answereth the priest, and saith to him, 'Surely, if women have been restrained from us as heretofore in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it [is] a common way: and also, surely to-day it is sanctified in the vessel.'

Dafidi sì dá àlùfáà náà lóhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Nítòótọ́ ni a tí ń pa ara wá mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ obìnrin láti ìwọ̀n ọjọ́ mẹ́ta wá, tí èmí ti jáde. Gbogbo nǹkan àwọn ọmọkùnrin náà ni ó mọ́, àti àkàrà náà sì wá dàbí àkàrà mìíràn, pàápàá nígbà tí ó jẹ́ pé òmíràn wà tí a yà sí mímọ́ lónìí nínú ohun èlò náà!”

6 And the priest giveth to him the holy thing, for there was no bread there except the bread of the Presence which is turned aside from the presence of Jehovah to put hot bread in the day of its being taken away.

Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àlùfáà náà sì fi àkàrà mímọ́ fún un; nítorí tí kò sí àkàrà mìíràn níbẹ̀ bí kò ṣe àkàrà ìfihàn tí a ti kó kúrò níwájú Olúwa, láti fi àkàrà gbígbóná síbẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ tí a kó o kúrò.

7 And there [is] a man of the servants of Saul on that day detained before Jehovah, and his name [is] Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul hath.

Ọkùnrin kan nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Saulu sì ń bẹ níbẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ náà, tí a tí dádúró síwájú Olúwa; orúkọ rẹ̀ sì ń jẹ́ Doegi, ará Edomu olórí nínú àwọn darandaran Saulu.

8 And David saith to Ahimelech, 'And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for neither my sword nor my vessels have I taken in my hand, for the matter of the king was urgent.'

Dafidi sì tún wí fún Ahimeleki pé, “Kò sí ọ̀kọ̀ tàbí idà lọ́wọ́ rẹ níhìn-ín? Nítorí tí èmi kò mú idà mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò mú nǹkan ìjà mi lọ́wọ́, nítorí pé iṣẹ́ ọba náà jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ìkánjú.”

9 And the priest saith, 'The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou didst smite in the valley of Elah, lo, it is wrapped in a garment behind the ephod, if it thou dost take to thyself, take; for there is none other save it in this [place].' And David saith, 'There is none like it — give it to me.'

Àlùfáà náà sì wí pé, “Idà Goliati ará Filistini tí ó pa ní àfonífojì Ela ní ń bẹ, wò ó, a fi aṣọ kan wé e lẹ́yìn efodu; bí ìwọ yóò bá mú èyí, mú un; kò sì sí òmíràn níhìn-ín mọ́ bí kò ṣe ọ̀kan náà.” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Kò sí èyí tí ó dàbí rẹ̀ fún mi.”

10 And David riseth and fleeth on that day from the face of Saul, and cometh in unto Achish king of Gath;

Dafidi sì dìde, o sì sá ni ọjọ́ náà níwájú Saulu, ó sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Akiṣi, ọba Gati.

11 and the servants of Achish say unto him, 'Is not this David king of the land? is it not of this one they sing in dances, saying, 'Saul smote among his thousands, and David among his myriads?'

Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Akiṣi sì wí fún un pé, “Èyí ha kọ́ ní Dafidi ọba ilẹ̀ náà? Ǹjẹ́ wọn kò ha ti dárin ti wọ́n sì gbe orin nítorí rẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì jó pé, “‘Saulu pa ẹgbẹ̀rún tirẹ̀. Dafidi sì pa ẹgbàárùn-ún tirẹ̀’?”

12 And David layeth these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish king of Gath,

Dafidi sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí í mọ́ ni ọkàn rẹ̀, ó sì bẹ̀rù Akiṣi ọba Gati gidigidi.

13 and changeth his behaviour before their eyes, and feigneth himself mad in their hand, and scribbleth on the doors of the gate, and letteth down his spittle unto his beard.

Òun sì pa ìṣe rẹ̀ dà níwájú wọn, ó sì sọ ara rẹ̀ di aṣiwèrè ní ọwọ́ wọn, ó sì ń fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ha ìlẹ̀kùn ojú ọ̀nà, ó sì ń wá itọ́ sí irùngbọ̀n rẹ̀.

14 And Achish saith unto his servants, 'Lo, ye see a man acting as a madman; why do ye bring him in unto me?

Nígbà náà ni Akiṣi wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Wó o, nítorí kín ni ẹ̀yin ṣe mú un tọ̀ mí wá.

15 A lack of madmen [have] I, that ye have brought in this one to act as a madman by me! doth this one come in unto my house?'

Mo ha ni un fi aṣiwèrè ṣe? Tí ẹ̀yin fi mú èyí tọ̀ mí wá láti hu ìwà aṣiwèrè níwájú mi? Eléyìí yóò ha wọ inú ilé mi?”
