1 Samũeli 24
1 Na rĩrĩ, thuutha wa Saũlũ gũcooka kuuma kũingatithia Afilisti, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Daudi arĩ Werũ-inĩ wa Eni-Gedi.”
And it was just when he returned Saul from after [the] Philistines and people told to him saying there! David [is] in [the] wilderness of En Gedi.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Saũlũ akĩoya andũ ngiri ithatũ arĩa athuure kuuma Isiraeli guothe magĩthiĩ gũcaria Daudi na andũ ake gũkuhĩ na ndwaro cia mahiga kũrĩa gũtũũragwo nĩ Mbũri cia Werũ.
And he took Saul three thousand man chosen from all Israel and he went to seek David and men his on [the] face of [the] rocks of the mountain goats.
3 Nake agĩkinya ciugũ-inĩ cia ngʼondu iria ciarĩ njĩra-inĩ; naho nĩ haarĩ na ngurunga, nake Saũlũ agĩtoonya thĩinĩ ageteithie. Daudi na andũ ake maarĩ kũu thĩinĩ mũno, ngurunga-inĩ.
And he came to [the] folds of the sheep on the way and [was] there a cave and he went Saul to cover feet his and David and men his in [the] innermost parts of the cave [were] sitting.
4 Nao andũ a Daudi makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩguo mũthenya ũrĩa Jehova aaririe ũhoro waguo, agĩkwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩnganeana thũ yaku moko-inĩ maku ũmĩĩke ũrĩa ũkwenda.’” Nake Daudi agĩkuruma atekuonwo, agĩthiĩ agĩtinia gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo ya Saũlũ.
And they said [the] men of David to him here! the day which he said Yahweh to you here! I [am] about to give (enemy your *Q(K)*) in hand your and you will do to him just as it will be good in view your and he arose David and he cut off [the] skirt of the robe which [belonged] to Saul in secrecy.
5 Thuutha-inĩ, Daudi akĩigua ngoro ĩkĩmũciirithia nĩ ũndũ wa gũtinia gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo ya Saũlũ.
And it was after thus and it struck [the] heart of David him on that he had cut off [the] skirt which [belonged] to Saul.
6 Akĩĩra andũ ake atĩrĩ, “Jehova arongiria njĩke ũndũ ta ũcio kũrĩ mwathi wakwa, ũcio mũitĩrĩrie maguta wa Jehova, kana ndĩmwĩke ũũru na guoko gwakwa; nĩ ũndũ nĩwe mũitĩrĩrie maguta wa Jehova.”
And he said to men his far be it to me from Yahweh if I will do the thing this to lord my to [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh by stretching out hand my on him for [is] [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh he.
7 Aarĩkia kwaria ciugo icio, Daudi agĩkaania andũ ake, na ndaamarekire mookĩrĩre Saũlũ. Nake Saũlũ akiuma ngurunga-inĩ, na agĩĩthiĩra.
And he reprimanded David men his by the words and not he permitted them to rise up against Saul and Saul he arose from the cave and he went on the way.
8 Ningĩ Daudi akiuma ngurunga-inĩ ĩyo, akĩanĩrĩra agĩĩta Saũlũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee mwathi wakwa, mũthamaki!” Rĩrĩa Saũlũ eehũgũrire, Daudi akĩinamĩrĩra, agĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ.
And he arose David after thus and he went out (from from the cave *Q(K)*) and he called out after Saul saying O lord my the king and he looked Saul behind him and he bowed low David face [the] ground towards and he bowed down.
9 Akĩĩra Saũlũ atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga ũthikĩrĩrie andũ rĩrĩa mekuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Daudi nĩeciiragĩria gũgwĩka ũũru’?
And he said David to Saul why? do you listen to [the] words of someone saying there! David [is] seeking harm your.
10 Ũmũthĩ nĩweyonera na maitho maku ũrĩa Jehova egũkũneanĩte moko-inĩ makwa kũu ngurunga-inĩ. Kũrĩ andũ amwe maniingĩrĩirie ngũũrage, no ndakũhonokia; ndoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndikuoya guoko gwaka njĩke mwathi wakwa ũũru, nĩ ũndũ nĩwe mũitĩrĩrie maguta wa Jehova.’
Here! the day this they have seen eyes your this: he gave you Yahweh - this day - in hand my in the cave and someone said to kill you and it looked with compassion on you and I said not I will stretch out hand my on lord my for [is] [the] [one] anointed of Yahweh he.
11 Baba, ta kĩone, rora gĩcunjĩ gĩkĩ kĩa nguo yaku, gĩkĩ kĩrĩ guoko-inĩ gwakwa! Ndinirie gĩcunjĩ kĩa nguo yaku, no ndinakũũraga. Rĩu menya na ũkũũrane atĩ niĩ ndirĩ na ihĩtia rĩa gwĩka ũũru kana rĩa ũremi. Niĩ ndikũhĩtĩirie, no wee nĩũranjaria ũnjũrage.
And O father my see also see [the] skirt of robe your in hand my for when cut off I [the] skirt of robe your and not I killed you know and see that there not in hand my [is] evil and transgression and not I have sinned to you and you [are] lying in wait for life my to take it.
12 Jehova arotũtuithania ciira niĩ nawe. Na Jehova arondĩhĩria maũru marĩa wee ũnjĩkĩte, no guoko gwakwa gũtigakũhutia.
May he judge Yahweh between me and between you and he will avenge me Yahweh from you and hand my not it will be on you.
13 O ta ũrĩa kũrĩ thimo yugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Waganu uumaga o harĩ arĩa aaganu,’ nĩ ũndũ ũcio guoko gwakwa gũtigakũhutia.
Just as it says [the] proverb of the ancient[s] from wicked [people] it comes forth wickedness and hand my not it will be on you.
14 “Mũthamaki wa Isiraeli oimĩte gwake ookĩrĩre ũ? Nũũ ũingatithĩtie? Nĩ ngui nguũ? Kana nĩ thuya?
After whom? has he come out [the] king of Israel after whom? [are] you pursuing after a dog dead after a flea one.
15 Jehova arotũtuithania na atue ciira gatagatĩ gaitũ. Aroeciiria ũhoro wakwa na aũrũgamie; arondũĩrĩra na aahonokie kuuma guoko-inĩ gwaku.”
And he will become Yahweh a judge and he will judge between me and between you and may he see and may he conduct case my and may he vindicate me from hand your.
16 Rĩrĩa Daudi aarĩkirie kuuga ũguo-rĩ, Saũlũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũcio nĩ mũgambo waku, Daudi mũrũ wakwa?” Nake akĩrĩra aanĩrĩire.
And it was - when finished David to speak the words these to Saul and he said Saul ¿ voice your [is] this O son my David and he lifted up Saul voice his and he wept.
17 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ mũthingu kũngĩra. Nĩũnjĩkĩte wega, no niĩ ngagwĩka ũũru.
And he said to David [are] righteous you more than I for you you have dealt out to me good and I I have dealt out to you evil.
18 Nĩwarĩĩkia o rĩu kũnjĩĩra ũndũ mwega ũnjĩkĩte; Jehova nĩekũũneanĩte moko-inĩ maku, no wee ndũnanjũraga.
(And you *Q(K)*) you have told this day this: you have done with me good [and] this: he delivered up me Yahweh in hand your and not you killed me.
19 Rĩrĩa mũndũ ona thũ yake-rĩ, nĩarekaga ĩthiĩ atamĩkĩte ũũru? Jehova arogwĩka maũndũ mega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa ũnjĩkĩte ũmũthĩ.
And if he will find anyone enemy his and will he send away? him on a journey good and Yahweh may he reward you good in place of the day this [that] which you have done to me.
20 Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ ti-itherũ nĩũgatuĩka mũthamaki, na atĩ ũthamaki wa Isiraeli nĩũkehaanda moko-inĩ maku.
And therefore here! I know that certainly you will reign and it will be established in hand your [the] kingdom of Israel.
21 Rĩu wĩhĩte harĩ niĩ na rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova atĩ ndũkaniina njiaro ciakwa kana rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩthire kuuma nyũmba-inĩ ya baba.”
And therefore swear an oath! to me by Yahweh if you will cut off offspring my after me and if you will destroy name my from [the] house of father my.
22 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩĩhĩta harĩ Saũlũ. Nake Saũlũ agĩcooka mũciĩ, no Daudi na andũ ake makĩambata magĩthiĩ kĩĩhitho-inĩ.
And he swore an oath David to Saul and he went Saul to house his and David and men his they went up to the stronghold.
