I Samuel 20
1 Kalpasanna, naglibas ni David manipud Najot iti Rama, immay kenni Jonatan ket kinunana, “Ania kadi ti naaramidko? Ania ti nadagsen a nakabasolak? Ania ti basolko iti amam, a kayatna pay a pukawen ti biagko?”
And David fled from Navath in Rama, and comes into the presence of Jonathan; and he said, What have I done, and what [is] my fault, and wherein have I sinned before thy father, that he seeks my life?
2 Kinuna ni Jonatan kenni David, “Adayo a mapasamak dayta; saanka a matay. Awan ti ar-aramiden ti amak a saanna nga ibaga kaniak, dakkel man wenno bassit a banag. Apay koma nga ilimed ti amak daytoy a banag kaniak? Saan a pudno dayta.”
And Jonathan said to him, Far be it from thee: thou shalt not die: behold, my father will not do any thing great or small without discovering it to me; and why should my father hide this matter from me? This thing is not [so].
3 Ngem insapata manen ni David ket kinunana, “Ammo la unay ti amam a nasayaat ti pannakikaduam kaniak.” Kinunana, 'Saan koma a maammoan ni Jonatan daytoy, ta amangan no agladingit isuna.' Ngem kas iti kinapudno a sibibiag ni Yahweh, ken agingga a sibibiagka, maysa laengen nga addang ti baetmi kenni patay.”
And David answered Jonathan, and said, Thy father knows surely that I have found grace in thy sight, and he said, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he refuse his consent: but [as] the Lord lives and thy soul lives, as I said, [the space] is filled up between me and death.
4 Ket kinuna ni Jonatan kenni David, “Aniaman nga ibagam, aramidek para kenka.”
And Jonathan said to David, What does thy soul desire, and what shall I do for thee.
5 Kinuna ni David kenni Jonatan, “Inton bigat ket baro a bulan, ket masapul a sumangoak a makipangan iti ari. Ngem bay-annak koma a pumanaw, tapno makapaglemmengak iti away agingga iti rabii ti maikatlo nga aldaw.
And David said to Jonathan, Behold, to-morrow [is] the new moon, and I shall not on any account sit down to eat, but thou shalt let me go, and I will hide in the plain till the evening.
6 No birokennak ti amam, ibagam ngarud, “Nagpakada ni David kaniak a mapan biit isuna idiay Betlehem a siudadna, gapu ta isu ti tinawen a panagidatonda sadiay para iti sibubukel a pamiliada.'
And if thy father do in anywise enquire for me, then shalt thou say, David earnestly asked leave of me to run to Bethleem his city, for [there is] there, a yearly sacrifice for all the family.
7 No kunaenna, 'Ala, wen,' maaddaan iti talna ti adipenmo. Ngem no makaunget unay isuna, ammomon a dakes ti pangngeddengna.
If he shall say thus, Well, — [all is] safe for thy servant: but if he shall answer harshly to thee, know that evil is determined by him.
8 Ipaaymo ngarud ti kinaimbagmo iti adipenmo. Ta nakitulagka iti adipenmo iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Ngem no adda basolko, papatayennak; ta apay pay laeng nga iyegnak iti amam?”
And thou shalt deal mercifully with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thyself: and if there is iniquity in thy servant, slay me thyself; but why dost thou thus bring me to thy father?
9 Kinuna ni Jonatan, “Adayo a mapasamak kenka dayta! No natakuatak koma nga inkeddeng ti amak a madangranka, saanko kadi nga ibaga kenka?”
And Jonathan said, That be far from thee: for if I surely know that evil is determined by my father to come upon thee, although it should not be against thy cities, I will tell thee.
10 Ket kinuna ni David kenni Jonatan, “Siasinonto ti mangibaga kaniak no kas pangarigan ta sungbatannaka a sigugubsang ti amam?”
And David said to Jonathan, Who can tell me if thy father should answer roughly?
11 Kinuna ni Jonatan kenni David, “Umayka, mapanta idiay away.” Ket napanda a dua iti tay-ak.
And Jonathan said to David, Go, and abide in the field. And they went out both into the field.
12 Kinuna ni Jonatan kenni David, “Saksi koma ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel. Inton damagek iti amak iti kastoy met laeng nga oras inton bigat, wenno iti maikatlo nga aldaw, denggem, no adda nasayaat a panggep para kenni David, saankonto kadi aya nga ipatulod ken ipakaammo kenka?
And Jonathan said to David, the Lord God of Israel knows that I will sound my father as I have an opportunity, three several times, and, behold, [if good] should be determined concerning David, and I do not send to thee to the field,
13 No pakaragsakan ti amak ti mangdangran kenka, aramiden koma ni Yahweh kenni Jonatan ken ad-adda pay koma no saanko nga ipakaammo kenka ken saanka a paadaywen, tapno makapanawka a natalna. Ni Yahweh koma ti kumuyog kenka, kas iti pannakikakaaddana iti amak.
God do so to Jonathan and more also: as I shall [also] report the evil to thee, and make it known to thee, and I will let thee go; and thou shalt depart in peace, and the Lord shall be with thee, as he was with my father.
14 No sibibiagak pay laeng, saanmo kadi nga ipakita kaniak ti kinapudno ni Yahweh iti tulag, tapno saanak koma a matay?
And if indeed I continue to live, then shalt thou deal mercifully with me; and if I indeed die,
15 Ket saanmonto koma a putden a maminpinsan ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo iti balayko, inton pukawen ni Yahweh amin a kabusor ni David iti rabaw ti daga.”
thou shalt not withdraw thy mercy from my house for ever: and if thou doest not, when the Lord cuts off the enemies of David each from the face of the earth,
16 Nakitulag ngarud ni Jonatan iti balay ni David a kunana, “Sapay koma ta singirento ni Yahweh daytoy iti ima dagiti kabusor ni David.”
[should it happen] that the name of Jonathan be discovered by the house of David, then let the Lord seek out the enemies of David.
17 Pinagsapata manen ni Jonatan ni David gapu iti panagayatna kenkuana, gapu ta ay-ayatenna isuna kas iti panagayatna iti bukodna a kararua.
And Jonathan swore yet again to David, because he loved the soul of him that loved him.
18 Ket kinuna ni Jonatan kenkuana, “Inton bigat ket baro a bulan. Birokennakanto gapu ta awan ti nakatugaw iti tugawmo.
And Jonathan said, To-morrow [is] the new moon, and thou wilt be enquired for, because thy seat will be observed as vacant.
19 Inton nakapagtalinaedka iti tallo nga aldaw, sumalogka a dagus ket umayka iti disso a naglemmengam inton madama a mapagtutungtongan dayta a banag, ket agtalinaedka iti bato nga Ezel.
And thou shalt stay three days, and watch an opportunity, and shalt come to thy place where thou mayest hide thyself in the day of thy business, and thou shalt wait by that ergab.
20 Mangipanaakto iti tallo a pana iti igid daytoy, a kasla adda panpanaek.
And I will shoot three arrows, aiming them at a mark.
21 Ket ibaonkonto ti agtutubok a lalaki ket ibagak kenkuana, 'Mapanmo biroken dagiti impanak. No ibagak iti agtutubo a lalaki, 'Kitaem, adda dagiti pana iti dayta a paset; alaem ida,” ket umayka; ta addanto talged para kenka saan ket a pakadangran, iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon.
And behold, I [will] send a lad, saying, Go find me the arrow.
22 “Ngem no ibagak iti agtutubo a lalaki, “Kitaem, adda iti labesmo dagiti pana,' nasken a pumanawkan, ta ibabaonnaka ni Yahweh nga umadayo.
If I should expressly say to the lad, The arrow [is] here, and on this side of thee, take it; [then] come, for it is well with thee, and there is no reason [for fear, as] the Lord lives: [but] if I should say thus to the young man, The arrow [is] on that side of thee, and beyond; go, for the Lord hath sent thee away.
23 Maipanggep iti nagnummoanta, pudno, adda ni Yahweh iti nagbaetanta iti agnanayon.'”
And as for the word which thou and I have spoken, behold, the Lord [is] witness between me and thee for ever.
24 Naglemmeng ngarud ni David iti tay-ak. Idi dimteng ti baro a bulan, nagtugaw ti ari tapno mangan.
So David hides himself in the field, and the [new] month arrives, and the king comes to the table to eat.
25 Nagtugaw ti ari iti tugawna, iti masansan a pagtugtugawanna, iti abay ti diding. Timmakder ni Jonatan, ket nagtugaw ni Abner iti abay ni Saul. Ngem awan ti nagtugaw iti tugaw ni David.
And he sat upon his seat as in former times, even on his seat by the wall, and he went before Jonathan; and Abenner sat on one side of Saul, and the place of David was empty.
26 Ngem awan ti imbagbaga ni Saul iti dayta nga aldaw, gapu ta impagarupna, “Adda napasamak kenkuana. Saan isuna a nadalus; sigurado saan isuna a nadalus.”
And Saul said nothing on that day, for he said, It seems to have fallen out that he is not clean, because he has not purified himself.
27 Ngem iti maikadua nga aldaw, ti aldaw kalpasan ti baro a bulan, awan ti nakatugaw iti tugaw ni David. Kinuna ni Saul kenni Jonatan nga anakna, “Apay a saan nga immay ti anak ni Jesse iti pannangan, uray idi kalman ken ita nga aldaw?”
And it came to pass on the morrow, on the second day of the month, that the place of David was empty; and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why has not the son of Jessae attended both yesterday and today at the table?
28 Simmungbat ni Jonatan kenni Saul, “Nagpakada kaniak ni David a mapan isuna idiay Betlehem.
And Jonathan answered Saul, and said to him, David asked leave of me to go as far as Bethleem his city;
29 Kinunana, 'Pangngaasim ta palubosannak. Adda ngamin panagidaton nga aramiden ti pamiliami idiay siudad, ket imbilin ti kabsatko a lalaki nga addaak koma sadiay. Ita, no nasayaatak iti imatangmo, palubosannak koma a mapanko kitaen dagiti kakabsatko a lallaki.' Daytoy ti makagapu a saan isuna nga immay iti lamisaan ti ari.”
and he said, Let me go, I pray thee, for we have a family sacrifice in the city, and my brethren have sent for me; and now, if I have found grace in thine eyes, I will even go over and see my brethren: therefore he is not present at the table of the king.
30 Ket simged ti pungtot ni Saul kenni Jonatan, ket kinunana kenkuana, “Sika nga anak ti dakes ken managsukir a babai! Ti kunam kadi ket saanko nga ammo a pinilim ti anak ni Jesse a pakaibabainam, ken pakaibabainan ti inam a nangipasngay kenka?
And Saul was exceedingly angry with Jonathan, and said to him, Thou son of traitorous damsels! for do I not know that thou art an accomplice with the son of Jessae to thy same, and to the shame of thy mother's nakedness?
31 Ta agingga a sibibiag ti anak ni Jesse iti rabaw ti daga, sika man wenno ti pagariam ket saanto a maisaad. Ita ngarud, ibaon ken iyegmo isuna kaniak, ta masapul a matay isuna.”
For so long as the son of Jessae lives upon the earth, thy kingdom shall not be established: now then send and take the young man, for he shall surely die.
32 Simmungbat ni Jonatan kenni Saul nga amana, “Ania ti makagapu a nasken a mapapatay isuna! Ania ti naaramidna?”
And Jonathan answered Saul, Why is he to die? What has he done?
33 Ket ginayang ni Saul ni Jonatan tapno patayenna isuna. Isu nga ammon ni Jonatan a kayat unay ti amana a patayen ni David.
And Saul lifted up his spear against Jonathan to slay him: so Jonathan knew that this evil was determined on by his father to slay David.
34 Makapungtot unay a timmakder ni Jonatan iti lamisaan ket saan a nangnangan iti maikadua nga aldaw ti bulan, ta nakaro ti panagladingitna para kenni David, gapu ta imbabain isuna ti amana.
And Jonathan sprang up from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second [day] of the month, for he grieved bitterly for David, because his father determined [on mischief] against him.
35 Iti kabigatanna, napan ni Jonatan iti away a nagtulaganda kenni David, ket adda maysa nga agtutubo a lalaki a kaduana.
And morning came, and Jonathan went out to the field, as he appointed [to do] for a signal to David, and a little boy [was] with him.
36 Kinunana iti agtutubona a lalaki, “Tumarayka ket birokem dagiti pana nga ipanak.” Ket bayat nga agtartaray ti agtutubo a lalaki, nangipana isuna iti maysa a pana iti labesna.
And he said to the boy, Run, find me the arrows which I shoot: and the boy ran, and [Jonathan] shot an arrow, and sent it beyond [him].
37 Idi nakadanon ti agtutubo a lalaki iti disso a nagdissoan ti pana nga impana ni Jonatan, pinukkawan ni Jonatan ti agtutubo a lalaki a kunana, “Saan kadi nga adda ti pana iti labesmo?”
And the boy came to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan shot; and Jonathan cried out after the lad, and said, The arrow [is] on that side of thee and beyond thee.
38 Ket pinukkawan ni Jonatan ti agtutubo a lalaki, “Darasem! Saanka nga agbayag!” Inurnong ngarud ti lalaki nga agtutubo ni Jonatan dagiti pana ket immay iti ayan ti amona.
And Jonathan cried out after his boy, saying, Make all speed, and stay not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought the arrows to his master.
39 Ngem awan ammo ti agtutubo a lalaki. Da laeng Jonatan ken David ti makaammo iti dayta a banag.
And the boy knew nothing, only Jonathan and David [knew].
40 Inted ni Jonatan dagiti igamna iti agtutubona a lalaki ket kinunana kenkuana, “Mapankan, ipanmo dagitoy iti siudad.”
And Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy, and said to his boy, Go, enter into the city.
41 Apaman a nakapanaw ti agtutubo a lalaki, timmakder ni David manipud iti abagatan a paset, nagpakleb iti daga, ket namitlo a daras a nagpakleb isuna iti daga. Naginnagekda iti maysa ken maysa ken nagsinnangitda, ngem nakarkaro ti panagsangsangit ni David.
And when the lad went in, then David arose from the argab, and fell upon his face, and did obeisance to him three times, and they kissed each other, and wept for each other, for a great while.
42 Kinuna ni Jonatan kenni David, “Mapanka a natalna, gapu ta nagkinnarita iti nagan ni Yahweh a kinunata, 'Adda koma ni Yahweh iti agnanayon iti nagbaetanta ken iti nagbaetan dagiti kaputotak ken kaputotam.” Ket timmakder ni David sa pimmanaw, ket nagsubli ni Jonatan iti siudad.
And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, and as we have both sworn in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord shall be witness between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever—[even so let it be]. And David arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.
