1 Samuel 26
1 And the Ziphites come in unto Saul, at Gibeah, saying, 'Is not David hiding himself in the height of Hachilah, on the front of the desert?'
Nígbà náà ni àwọn ará Sifi tọ Saulu wá sí Gibeah, wọn wí pé, “Dafidi kò ha fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ níbi òkè Hakila, èyí tí ó wà níwájú Jeṣimoni?”
2 And Saul riseth, and goeth down unto the wilderness of Ziph, and with him three thousand men, chosen ones of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
Saulu sì dìde ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ijù Sifi ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àṣàyàn ènìyàn ni Israẹli sì pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ láti wá Dafidi ni ijù Sifi.
3 And Saul encampeth in the height of Hachilah, which [is] on the front of the desert, by the way, and David is abiding in the wilderness, and he seeth that Saul hath come after him in to the wilderness;
Saulu sì pàgọ́ rẹ̀ ní ibi òkè Hakila tí o wà níwájú Jeṣimoni lójú ọ̀nà, Dafidi sì jókòó ni ibi ijù náà, ó sì rí pé Saulu ń tẹ̀lé òun ni ijù náà.
4 and David sendeth spies, and knoweth that Saul hath come unto Nachon,
Dafidi sì rán ayọ́lẹ̀wò jáde, ó sì mọ nítòótọ́ pé Saulu ń bọ̀.
5 and David riseth, and cometh in unto the place where Saul hath encamped, and David seeth the place where Saul hath lain, and Abner son of Ner, head of his host, and Saul is lying in the path, and the people are encamping round about him.
Dafidi sì dìde, ó sì wá sí ibi ti Saulu pàgọ́ sí: Dafidi rí ibi tí Saulu gbé dùbúlẹ̀ sí, àti Abneri ọmọ Neri, olórí ogun rẹ̀: Saulu sì dùbúlẹ̀ láàrín àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì pàgọ́ wọn yí i ká.
6 And David answereth and saith unto Ahimelech the Hittite, and unto Abishai son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, 'Who doth go down with me unto Saul, unto the camp?' and Abishai saith, 'I — I go down with thee.'
Dafidi sì dáhùn, ó sì wí fún Ahimeleki, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ Hiti, àti fún Abiṣai ọmọ Seruiah ẹ̀gbọ́n Joabu, pé, “Ta ni yóò ba mi sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sọ́dọ̀ Saulu ni ibùdó?” Abiṣai sì wí pé, “Èmi yóò ba ọ sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ.”
7 And David cometh — and Abishai — unto the people by night, and lo, Saul is lying sleeping in the path, and his spear struck into the earth at his pillow, and abner and the people are lying round about him.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Dafidi àti Abiṣai sì tọ àwọn ènìyàn náà wá lóru: sì wò ó, Saulu dùbúlẹ̀ ó sì ń sùn láàrín kẹ̀kẹ́, a sì fi ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ gúnlẹ̀ ni ibi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀: Abneri àti àwọn ènìyàn náà sì dùbúlẹ̀ yí i ká.
8 And Abishai saith unto David, 'God hath shut up to-day thine enemy into thy hand; and, now, let me smite him, I pray thee, with a spear, even into the earth at once — and I do repeat [it] to him.'
Abiṣai sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Ọlọ́run ti fi ọ̀tá rẹ lé ọ lọ́wọ́ lónìí: ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, sá à jẹ́ kí èmi o fi ọ̀kọ̀ gún un mọ́lẹ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan, èmi kì yóò gun un lẹ́ẹ̀méjì.”
9 And David saith unto Abishai, 'Destroy him not; for who hath put forth his hand against the anointed of Jehovah, and been acquitted?'
Dafidi sì wí fún Abiṣai pé, “Má ṣe pa á nítorí pé ta ni lè na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa kí ó sì wà láìjẹ̀bi?”
10 And David saith, 'Jehovah liveth; except Jehovah doth smite him, or his day come that he hath died, or into battle he go down, and hath been consumed —
Dafidi sì wí pé, “Bí Olúwa tí ń bẹ Olúwa yóò pa á, tàbí ọjọ́ rẹ̀ yóò sì pé tí yóò kú, tàbí òun ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ibi ìjà yóò sì ṣègbé níbẹ̀.
11 far be it from me, by Jehovah, from putting forth my hand against the anointed of Jehovah; and, now, take, I pray thee, the spear which [is] at his pillow, and the cruse of water, and we go away.'
Olúwa má jẹ́ kí èmi na ọwọ́ mi sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa. Ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, mú ọ̀kọ̀ náà tí ń bẹ níbi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀, àti ìgò omi kí a sì máa lọ.”
12 And David taketh the spear, and the cruse of water at the pillow of Saul, and they go away, and there is none seeing, and there is none knowing, and there is none awaking, for all of them are sleeping, for a deep sleep [from] Jehovah hath fallen upon them.
Dafidi sì mú ọ̀kọ̀ náà àti ìgò omi náà kúrò níbi tìmùtìmù Saulu: wọ́n sì bá tiwọn lọ, kò sì sí ẹnìkan tí ó rí i, tàbí tí ó mọ̀: kò sì sí ẹnìkan tí ó jí; gbogbo wọn sì sùn; nítorí pé oorun èjìká láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá ti ṣubú lù wọ́n.
13 And David passeth over to the other side, and standeth on the top of the hill afar off — great [is] the place between them;
Dafidi sì rékọjá sí ìhà kejì, ó sì dúró lórí òkè kan tí ó jìnnà réré; àlàfo kan sì wà láàrín méjì wọn.
14 and David calleth unto the people, and unto Abner son of Ner, saying, 'Dost thou not answer, Abner?' and Abner answereth and saith, 'Who [art] thou [who] hast called unto the king?'
Dafidi sì kọ sí àwọn ènìyàn náà àti sí Abneri ọmọ Neri wí pé, “Ìwọ kò dáhùn, Abneri?” Nígbà náà ni Abneri sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ìwọ ta ni ń pe ọba?”
15 And David saith unto Abner, 'Art not thou a man? and who [is] like thee in Israel? but why hast thou not watched over thy lord the king? for one of the people had come in to destroy the king, thy lord.
Dafidi sì wí fún Abneri pé, “Alágbára ọkùnrin kọ́ ni ìwọ bí? Ta ni ó sì dàbí ìwọ ni Israẹli? Ǹjẹ́ èéṣe tí ìwọ kò tọ́jú ọba Olúwa rẹ? Nítorí ẹnìkan nínú àwọn ènìyàn náà ti wọlé wá láti pa ọba olúwa rẹ.
16 Not good is this thing which thou hast done; Jehovah liveth, but ye [are] sons of death, in that ye have not watched over your lord, over the anointed of Jehovah; and now, see where the king's spear [is], and the cruse of water which [is] at his bolster.'
Nǹkan tí ìwọ ṣe yìí kò dára. Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ, o tọ́ kí ẹ̀yin ó kú, nítorí pé ẹ̀yin kò pa olúwa yín mọ́, ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa. Ǹjẹ́ sì wo ibi tí ọ̀kọ̀ ọba gbé wà, àti ìgò omi tí ó ti wà níbi tìmùtìmù rẹ̀.”
17 And Saul discerneth the voice of David, and saith, 'Is this thy voice, my son David?' and David saith, 'My voice, my lord, O king!'
Saulu sì mọ ohùn Dafidi, ó sì wí pé, “Ohùn rẹ ni èyí bí Dafidi ọmọ mi?” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Ohùn mi ni, olúwa mi, ọba.”
18 and he saith, 'Why [is] this — my lord is pursuing after his servant? for what have I done, and what [is] in my hand evil?
Òun sì wí pé, “Nítorí kín ni olúwa mi ṣe ń lépa ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀? Kín ni èmi ṣe? Tàbí ìwà búburú wo ni ó wà lọ́wọ́ mi.
19 And, now, let, I pray thee, my lord the king hear the words of his servant: if Jehovah hath moved thee against me, let Him accept a present; and if the sons of men — cursed [are] they before Jehovah, for they have cast me out to-day from being admitted into the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods.
Ǹjẹ́ èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, ọba, olúwa mi, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ. Bí ó bá ṣe Olúwa bá ti rú ọ sókè sí mi, jẹ́ kí òun o gba ẹbọ; ṣùgbọ́n bí o bá sì ṣe pé ọmọ ènìyàn ni, ìfibú ni kí wọn ó jásí níwájú Olúwa; nítorí tí wọn lé mi jáde lónìí kí èmi má ba à ní ìpín nínú ilẹ̀ ìní Olúwa, wí pé, ‘Lọ sin àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn.’
20 'And now, let not my blood fall to the earth over-against the face of Jehovah, for the king of Israel hath come out to seek one flea, as [one] pursueth the partridge in mountains.'
Ǹjẹ́ má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹ̀jẹ̀ mi ó sàn sílẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa; nítorí ọba Israẹli jáde láti wá ẹ̀mí mi bi ẹni ń dọdẹ àparò lórí òkè ńlá.”
21 And Saul saith, 'I have sinned; turn back, my son David, for I do evil to thee no more, because that my soul hath been precious in thine eyes this day; lo, I have acted foolishly, and do err very greatly.'
Saulu sì wí pé, “Èmi ti dẹ́ṣẹ̀: yípadà, Dafidi ọmọ mi: nítorí pé èmi kì yóò wa ibi rẹ mọ́, nítorí tí ẹ̀mí mi sì ti ṣe iyebíye lójú rẹ lónìí: wò ó, èmi ti ń hùwà òmùgọ̀, mo sì ti ṣìnà jọjọ.”
22 And David answereth and saith, 'Lo, the king's spear; and let one of the young men pass over, and receive it;
Dafidi sì dáhùn, ó sì wí pé, “Wò ó, ọ̀kọ̀ ọba! Kí ó sì jẹ́ kí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin rékọjá wá gbà á.
23 and Jehovah doth turn back to each his righteousness and his faithfulness, in that Jehovah hath given thee to-day into [my] hand, and I have not been willing to put forth my hand against the anointed of Jehovah,
Kí Olúwa o san án fún olúkúlùkù bí òdodo rẹ̀ àti bí òtítọ́ rẹ̀: nítorí pé Olúwa tí fi ọ lé mi lọ́wọ́ lónìí, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò fẹ́ nawọ́ mi sí ẹni àmì òróró Olúwa.
24 and lo, as thy soul hath been great this day in mine eyes, so is my soul great in the eyes of Jehovah, and He doth deliver me out of all distress.'
Sì wò ó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀mí rẹ ti tóbi lónìí lójú mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ki ẹ̀mí mi ó tóbi lójú Olúwa, kí ó sì gbà mí lọ́wọ́ ibi gbogbo.”
25 And Saul saith unto David, 'Blessed [art] thou, my son David, also working thou dost work, and also prevailing thou dost prevail.' And David goeth on his way, and Saul hath turned back to his place.
Saulu sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Alábùkún fún ni ìwọ, Dafidi ọmọ mi: nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò sì ṣe nǹkan ńlá, nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò sì borí.” Dafidi sì bá ọ̀nà rẹ̀ lọ, Saulu sì yípadà sí ibùgbé rẹ̀.
