I Samuel 24
1 Idi nagsubli ni Saul manipud iti panangkamkamatna kadagiti Filisteo, naibaga kenkuana, “Adda ni David iti let-ang ti Engedi.”
And it comes to pass, when Saul has turned back from after the Philistines, that they declare to him, saying, “Behold, David [is] in the wilderness of En-gedi.”
2 Inkuyog ngarud ni Saul ti tallo ribu a napili a lallaki a naggapu iti entero nga Israel ket napanda binirok ni David ken dagiti tattaona idiay Kabatoan nga ayan dagiti Atap a Kalding.
And Saul takes three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and goes to seek David and his men, on the front of the rocks of the wild goats,
3 Nakagteng isuna kadagiti pagaponan dagiti karnero iti igid ti dalan, nga ayan ti kueba. Immuneg ni Saul tapno umibleng. Ita, agtugtugaw ni David ken dagiti tattaona iti akin un-uneg a paset ti kueba.
and he comes to folds of the flock, on the way, and there [is] a cave, and Saul goes in to cover his feet; and David and his men are abiding in the sides of the cave.
4 Kinuna dagiti tattao ni David kenkuana, “Daytoy ti aldaw nga insao ni Yahweh idi imbagana kenka, 'Iyawatkonto ti kabusormo iti imam, tapno maaramidmo kenkuana ti kayatmo.”' Ket timmakder ni David ken nagarudok ket nangragas iti gayadan ti kagay ni Saul.
And the men of David say to him, “Behold, the day of which YHWH said to you, Behold, I am giving your enemy into your hand, and you have done to him as it is good in your eyes”; and David rises and cuts off the skirt of the upper robe which [is] on Saul with stealth.
5 Kalpasanna, saan a makaidna ni David gapu iti panangragasna iti gayadan ti kagay ni Saul.
And it comes to pass afterward that the heart of David strikes him, because that he has cut off the skirt which [is] on Saul,
6 Kinunana kadagiti tattaona, “Saan koma nga itulok ni Yahweh nga aramidek daytoy iti apok, a pinulotan ni Yahweh, a dangrak isuna agsipud ta ammok a ni Yahweh ti nangpili kenkuana.”
and he says to his men, “Far be it from me, by YHWH; I do not do this thing to my lord—to the anointed of YHWH—to put forth my hand against him, for he [is] the anointed of YHWH.”
7 Binagbagaan ngarud ni David dagiti tattaona babaen kadagitoy a sasao, ket saanna ida a pinalubosan a mangdarup kenni Saul. Timmakder ni Saul, pimmanaw isuna idiay kueba ket intuloyna ti nagna.
And David subdues his men by words, and has not permitted them to rise against Saul; and Saul has risen from the cave, and goes on the way;
8 Kalpasanna, timmakder met ti David, pimmanaw isuna idiay kueba ket pinukkawanna ni Saul: “Apok nga ari.” Idi timmalliaw ni Saul iti malikudanna, nagkurno ni David ket impakitana kenkuana ti panagraemna.
and David rises afterward, and goes out from the cave, and calls after Saul, saying, “My lord, O king!” And Saul looks attentively behind him, and David bows—face to the earth—and pays respect.
9 Kinuna ni David kenni Saul, “Saanka koma a dumngeg kadagiti lallaki a mangibagbaga, 'Kitaem, kayatnaka a dangran ni David.'
And David says to Saul, “Why do you hear the words of man, saying, Behold, David is seeking your calamity?
10 Ita nga aldaw nakita dagiti matam ti panangiyawat ni Yahweh kenka iti imak idi addata iti uneg ti kueba. Imbaga dagiti dadduma kaniak a patayenka, ngem saanka nga inan-ano. Kinunak, 'Saankonto a dangran ti apok; ta pinulotan isuna ni Yahweh.'
Behold, this day your eyes have seen how that YHWH has given you into my hand today in the cave; and [one] said to slay you, and [my eye] has pity on you, and I say, I do not put forth my hand against my lord, for he [is] the anointed of YHWH.
11 Kitaem, amak, kitaem ti gayadan ti kagaymo iti imak. Ta kinapudnona, nangragasak iti gayadan ti kagaymo ket saanka a pinatay, maamirismo koma ken makitam koma nga awan ti dakes wenno saanka a liniputan, ken saanak a nagbasol kenka, urayno an-anupennak ken kayatmo a pukawen ti biagko.
And my father, see, indeed see the skirt of your upper robe in my hand; for by cutting off the skirt of your upper robe, and I have not slain you, know and see that there is not evil and transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against you, and you are hunting my soul to take it!
12 Kedngannata koma ni Yahweh, ket ibalesnak koma ni Yahweh maibusor kenka, ngem saankanto a dangran.
YHWH judges between me and you, and YHWH has avenged me of you, and my hand is not on you;
13 Kas iti pagsasao a maibagbaga idi, 'Manipud iti nadangkes, umay ti kinadangkes.' Ngem saanakto a bumusor kenka.
as the allegory of the ancients says, Wickedness goes out from the wicked, and my hand is not on you.
14 Siasino koma met ngay daytoy nga an-anupen ti ari ti Israel? Siasino ngay koma daytoy a kamkamatem? Iti maysa a natay nga aso! Iti maysa a timel!
After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom are you pursuing? After a dead dog! After one flea!
15 Ni Yahweh koma ti mangikeddeng ket kedngannata koma a dua, ken usigenna daytoy, ken patganna ti asugko ket palubosannak a makalibas manipud iti imam.”
And YHWH has been for judge, and has judged between me and you, indeed, He sees and pleads my cause, and delivers me out of your hand.”
16 Apaman a naibaga ni David dagitoy a sasao kenni Saul, kinuna ni Saul, “Timekmo kadi daytoy, anakko a David?” Impukkaw ni Saul ket nagsangit.
And it comes to pass, when David completes to speak these words to Saul, that Saul says, “Is this your voice, my son David?” And Saul lifts up his voice, and weeps.
17 Kinunana kenni David, “Nalinlintegka ngem siak. Ta sinubadannak iti naimbag, idinto ta siak dakes ti insubadko kenka.
And he says to David, “You [are] more righteous than I; for you have done me good, and I have done you evil;
18 Impakitam ita nga aldaw ti kinaimbagmo kaniak, ta saannak a pinatay idi inyawatnak ni Yahweh iti kaasim.
and you have declared today how that you have done good with me, how that YHWH shut me up into your hand, and you did not slay me,
19 Ta no masarakan ti maysa a tao ti kabusorna, saanna a palubosan a pumanaw daytoy a sitatalged. Gunggonaannaka koma ni Yahweh iti kinaimbag gapu iti inaramidmo kaniak ita nga aldaw.
and that a man finds his enemy, and has sent him away in a good manner; and YHWH repays you good for that which you did to me this day.
20 Ita, ammok nga awan duadua nga agbalinkanto nga ari ken mapatalgedto iti imam ti pagarian ti Israel.
And now, behold, I have known that you certainly reign, and the kingdom of Israel has stood in your hand;
21 Isapatam kaniak iti nagan ni Yahweh a saanmonto a pukawen dagiti kaputotak a sumaruno kaniak, ken saanmonto a dadaelen ti naganko manipud iti balay ni amak.”
and now, swear to me by YHWH [that] you do not cut off my seed after me, nor do you destroy my name from the house of my father.”
22 Nagsapata ngarud ni David kenni Saul. Kalpasanna, nagawid ni Saul, ngem simmang-at ni David ken dagiti tattaona a nagturong iti natalged a disso.
And David swears to Saul, and Saul goes to his house, and David and his men have gone up to the fortress.
