I Samuel 18
1 Idi nalpas ti pannakisarsaritana kenni Saul, naisinggalot ti kararua ni Jonatan iti kararua ni David, ket impateg isuna ni Jonatan a kas iti panangipategna iti bagina.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
2 Innala ni Saul ni David nga agserbi kenkuana iti dayta nga aldaw; saannan a pinalubosan isuna nga agsubli iti pagtaengan ti amana.
And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father’s house.
3 Ket nagtinnulag ni Jonatan ken ni David iti panaggayyemda gapu ta inayat ni Jonatan isuna a kas iti panagayatna iti bagina.
Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
4 Inussob ni Jonatan ti kagay a suot-suotna ket intedna daytoy kenni David agraman ti kabalna, kasta met ti kampilan, bai, ken barikesna.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that [was] upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
5 Mapan ni David iti sadinoman a pangibaonan kenkuana ni Saul, ket nagballigi isuna. Dinutokan ni Saul isuna a pangulo dagiti lallaki a mannakigubat. Makaay-ayo daytoy iti imatang dagiti amin a tattao ken kasta met iti imatang dagiti adipen ni Saul.
And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, [and] behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.
6 Iti panagawidda kadagiti pagtaenganda manipud iti panangparmekda kadagiti Filisteo, immay dagiti babbai iti amin a siudad ti Israel, agkakanta ken agsasalada, a mangsabat kenni Ari Saul, babaen kadagiti pandereta, nga addaan iti rag-o, ken babaen iti pangtukar nga instrumento.
And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick.
7 Nagkakanta dagiti babbai bayat nga agtuktukkarda; kinantada: “Pinatay ni Saul dagiti rinibribuna, Ket ni David dagiti sangapulo a ribuna.”
And the women answered [one another] as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
8 Kasta unay ti unget ni Saul, ket nasakit ti nakemna iti daytoy a kanta. Kinunana, “Impabaklayda kenni David dagiti sangapulo a ribu, ngem impabaklayda laeng kaniak dagiti rinibribu. Ania pay ti magun-odna no di ti kinaari?”
And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed [but] thousands: and [what] can he have more but the kingdom?
9 Ket manipud iti dayta nga aldaw pinagatapan ni Saul ni David iti dakes.
And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
10 Iti simmaruno nga aldaw, dagus nga immay kenni Saul ti dakes nga espiritu a binilin ti Dios. Ket nagmangaw-mangaw isuna iti uneg ti pagtaenganna. Isu a tinukar ni David ti instrumentona, a kas iti ar-aramidenna iti inaldaw. Igge-iggem ni Saul ti gayangna.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and [there was] a javelin in Saul’s hand.
11 Ingayang ni Saul ti gayangna, ta pinanunotna, “Ilansakto ni David iti pader.” Ngem nakalisi ni David iti sangoanan ni Saul iti namindua a daras iti kastoy a wagas.
And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall [with it]. And David avoided out of his presence twice.
12 Nagbuteng ni Saul kenni David, gapu ta adda ni Yahweh kenkuana, ngem awanen kenni Saul.
And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul.
13 Isu a pinapanaw isuna ni Saul iti sangoananna ket dinutokanna a pangulo ti sangaribu. Babaen iti daytoy a wagas, indauloan ni David iti gubat dagiti soldadona ken idauloanna met laeng ida nga agawid manipud iti paggugubatan.
Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
14 Kanayon nga agballigi ni David iti amin a pakigubatanna, ta adda ni Yahweh kenkuana.
And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD [was] with him.
15 Idi nakita ni Saul a kanayon nga agballigi isuna, ad-adda a nagsiddaaw isuna kenkuana.
Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
16 Ngem inayat ti entero nga Israel ken Juda ni David, idauloanna iti gubat dagiti soldadona ken idauloanna met laeng ida nga agawid manipud iti paggugubatan.
But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.
17 Ket kinuna ni Saul kenni David, “Adtoy ti inauna nga anakko a babai a ni Merab. Ipaasawak isuna kenka. Agbalinka laeng a natured para kaniak ken makirangetka kadagiti gubat ni Yahweh.” Ta pinanunot ni Saul, “Saan a ti imak ti mangdangran kenkuana, ngem ti ima dagiti Filisteo ti mangdangran kenkuana,”
And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD’s battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
18 Kinuna ni David kenni Saul, “Siasinoak koma, ken ania koma ti kabibiagko, wenno ti pamilia ti amak idiay Israel, tapno agbalinak a manugang ti ari?”
And David said unto Saul, Who [am] I? and what [is] my life, [or] my father’s family in Israel, that I should be son in law to the king?
19 Ngem idi tiempo nga agbalin koman nga asawa ni David ni Merab nga anak a babai ni Saul, naipaasawa isuna kenni Adriel a taga-Mehola.
But it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul’s daughter should have been given to David, that she was given unto Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
20 Ngem ni Mical, nga anak a babai ni Saul, inayatna ni David. Imbagada daytoy kenni Saul, ket naay-ayo isuna iti daytoy.
And Michal Saul’s daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
21 Ket pinanunot ni Saul, “Ipaasawak isuna kenkuana, tapno agbalin isuna a palab-og kenkuana, ket tapno bumusorto kenkuana dagiti Filisteo.” Isu a kinuna ni Saul kenni David iti maikadua a daras, “Agbalinkanto a manugangko.”
And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son in law in [the one of] the twain.
22 Binilin ni Saul dagiti adipenna, “Katungtongenyo ni David iti nalimed, ket ibagayo, “Kitaem, naragsakan ti ari kenka, ken dagiti amin nga adipenna ket ipatpategdaka. Ita ngarud, agbalinkan a manugang ti ari.'”
And Saul commanded his servants, [saying], Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king’s son in law.
23 Imbaga ngarud dagiti adipen ni Saul dagitoy a sasao kenni David. Ket kinuna ni David, “Nalag-an kadi laeng a banag kadakayo ti agbalin a manugang ti ari, agsipud ta nakurapayak laeng a tao, ken nababaak laeng?”
And Saul’s servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you [a] light [thing] to be a king’s son in law, seeing that I [am] a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
24 Impadamag dagiti adipen ni Saul kenkuana dagiti sasao nga imbaga ni David.
And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spake David.
25 Ket kinuna ni Saul, “Kastoyto ti ibagayo kenni David, 'Saan a tartarigagayan ti ari ti aniaman a sab-ong, dagiti laeng sangagasut a kudil iti murdong ti mabagbagi dagiti Filisteo ti kasapulan tapno makabales ti ari kadagiti kabusorna.'” Ita, impagarup ni Saul a matnag ni David iti ima dagiti Filisteo.
And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but an hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king’s enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 Idi imbaga dagiti adipenna dagitoy a sasao kenni David, naragsakan ni David nga agbalin a manugang ti ari.
And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king’s son in law: and the days were not expired.
27 Sakbay a nagleppas dagidiay nga al-aldaw, napan ni David a kaduana dagiti tattaona ket pinatayda dagiti dua gasut a Filisteo. Inyeg ni David dagiti kudil iti murdong ti mabagbagida, ket intedda amin dagitoy iti ari, tapno agbalin isuna a manugang ti ari. Impaasawa ngarud ni Saul ti anakna a ni Mical kenni David.
Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full tale to the king, that he might be the king’s son in law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.
28 Ket nakita ken naammoan ni Saul nga adda ni Yahweh kenni David. Inayat isuna ni Mical nga anak ni Saul.
And Saul saw and knew that the LORD [was] with David, and [that] Michal Saul’s daughter loved him.
29 Kimmarkaro ti buteng ni Saul kenni David. Nagtultuloy a kabusor ni Saul ni David.
And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul became David’s enemy continually.
30 Ket rimmuar ti armada dagiti Filisteo para iti gubat, ket kas iti kasansan nga iruruarda, ad-adda a ni David ti agbalballigi ngem kadagiti amin nga adipen ni Saul, isu nga ad-adda a napadayawan ti naganna.
Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass, after they went forth, [that] David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by.
