< 1 Samuel 27 >

1 And David saith unto his heart, 'Now am I consumed one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing for me better than that I diligently escape unto the land of the Philistines, and Saul hath been despairing of me — of seeking me any more in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.'
दाऊदले आफ्‍नो मनमा भने, “म कुनै दिन शाऊलको हातबाट नष्‍ट हुन्छु । मलाई पलिश्‍तीहरूको देशमा उम्केर जानुभन्दा उत्तम अरू केही हुँदैन । शाऊलले इस्राएलको सबै सिमानाभित्र मलाई खोज्‍न छोड्नेछ । यसरी म तिनको हातबाट उम्कनेछु ।”
2 And David riseth, and passeth over, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, unto Achish son of Maoch king of Gath;
दाऊद उठे र आफू र आफूसँग भएका छ सय मानिससँगै गातका राजा माओकका छोरा आकीशकहाँ गए ।
3 and David dwelleth with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each one with his household, [even] David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelitess.
दाऊद र तिनीसँग भएका मानिसहरू, तिनका आफ्नै घरानाका हरेक मानिस, र दाऊदका आफ्नी दई जना पत्‍नी यिजरेली अहीनोम र नाबालकी पत्‍नी कार्मेली स्‍त्री अबीगेल गातमा आकीशसँग बसे ।
4 And it is declared to Saul that David hath fled to Gath, and he hath not added any more to seek him.
दाऊद गातमा भागेर गयो भनी शाऊललाई भनियो, त्यसैले उनले तिनलाई खोज्‍न छोडे ।
5 And David saith unto Achish, 'If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, they give to me a place in one of the cities of the field, and I dwell there, yea, why doth thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?'
दाऊदले आकीशलाई भने, “मैले तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भने, देशभित्रका सहरमध्ये मलाई एउटा ठाउँ दिनुहोस्, ताकि म त्यहाँ बस्‍न सकूँ । तपाईंको दास तपाईंसँग राजकीय सहरमा किन बस्‍नु?”
6 And Achish giveth to him in that day Ziklag, therefore hath Ziklag been to the kings of Judah till this day.
त्यसैले त्यो दिन आकीशले तिनलाई सिक्‍लग दिए । त्यसैले सिक्‍लग आजको दिनसम्म पनि यहूदाका राजाहरूको अधीनमा छ ।
7 And the number of the days which David hath dwelt in the field of the Philistines [is] days and four months;
दाऊद पलिश्‍तीहरूको देशमा पुरा एक वर्ष चार महिनासम्म बसे ।
8 and David goeth up and his men, and they push unto the Geshurite, and the Gerizite, and the Amalekite, (for they are inhabitants of the land from of old), as thou comest in to Shur and unto the land of Egypt,
दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरूले विभिन्‍न ठाउँहरू आक्रमण गरेर गशूरीहरू, गिज्रीहरू र अमालेकीहरूलाई लूटे । किनभने तिनीहरू शूरतिर जाँदा मिश्रदेशसम्म बस्‍ने त्यस देशका बासिन्दाहरू थिए । तिनीहरू त्यस देशमा प्राचीनकालदेखि बस्दै आएका थिए ।
9 and David hath smitten the land, and doth not keep alive man and woman, and hath taken sheep, and oxen, and asses, and camels, and garments, and turneth back, and cometh in unto Achish.
दाऊदले त्यो देशलाई आक्रमण गरे र न पुरुष न त स्‍त्रीलाई जीवित राखे । तिनले भेडाहरू, गोरुहरू, गधाहरू, ऊँटहरू र लुगाफाटा लगे । तिनी फर्कन्‍थे र आकीशकहाँ आउँथे ।
10 And Achish saith, 'Whither have ye pushed to-day?' and David saith, 'Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelite, and unto the south of the Kenite.'
आकीशले भन्थे, “आज तिमीले कसलाई लुट्यौ?” दाऊदले जवाफ दन्थे, “यहूदाको दक्षिणतिर” वा “यरहमेलीहरूको दक्षिणतिर” वा “केनीहरूको दक्षिणतिर ।”
11 Neither man nor woman doth David keep alive, to bring in [word] to Gath, saying, 'Lest they declare [it] against us, saying, Thus hath David done, and thus [is] his custom all the days that he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.'
दाऊदले, “तिनीहरूले हाम्रोबारे 'दाऊदले यसो-यसो गरे' भन्‍न नसकून्” भनेर गातमा ल्याउनलाई न पुरुष न त स्‍त्रीलाई जीवित राख्थे । तिनी पलिश्तीहरूको देशमा बस्दा तिनले गरेका सबै कुरा यही थियो ।
12 And Achish believeth in David, saying, 'He hath made himself utterly abhorred among his people, in Israel, and hath been to me for a servant age-during.'
आकीशले यसो भन्‍दै दाऊदलाई विश्‍वास गरे, “इस्राएलका मानिसले तिनलाई पूर्ण रूपमा घृणा गर्ने तिनले बनाएका छन् । यसकारण तिनी सदाको निम्ति मेरो सेवक हुनेछन् ।”
