Sie Samuel 24
1 Ke Saul el folok liki mweun lal nu sin mwet Philistia, fwackyang nu sel lah David el muta yen mwesis se apkuran nu Engedi.
And it came to pass when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.
2 Saul el eis tolu tausin mwet mweun na ku sin mwet Israel, ac som sokol David ac mwet lal kutulap in acn se pangpang Eot in Nani Lemnak.
And Saul took three thousand men, chosen out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
3 Saul el tuku nu ke luf se su apkuran nu ke sie kalkal in sheep, na el utyak nu loac in akola we. Falyang na lah luf se inge pa David ac mwet lal elos wikwik we e ke kapin luf uh.
And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet; and David and his men were abiding in the recesses of the cave.
4 Na mwet lal David elos fahk nu sel, “Pacl wo lom pa inge! LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sum lah El ac fah asot mwet lokoalok lom nu inpoum, ac kom fah ku in oru kutena ma kom lungse oru nu sel.” Na David el orakla ac lusala sie ipin nuknuk lal Saul, a Saul el tiana etu.
And David's men said to him, Behold the day of which Jehovah said to thee, Behold, I will give thine enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good to thee. And David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe secretly.
5 Na toko, David el mutawauk in auli insial,
And it came to pass afterwards that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
6 ac el fahk nu sin mwet lal, “LEUM GOD Elan ikolyuwi tuh nga in tia oru kutena ma koluk lain leum luk, su LEUM GOD El sulela tuh in tokosra. Nga enenu na nga in tiana akkolukyal, mweyen el tokosra se su sulosolla sin LEUM GOD.”
And he said to his men, Jehovah forbid that I should do this thing to my master, Jehovah's anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, for he is the anointed of Jehovah.
7 Ke ma inge, David el arulana akkalemye nu sin mwet lal tuh elos in tia oru kutena ma nu sel Saul. Na Saul el tuyak ac illa liki luf sac, ac mutawauk in fahsr inkanek lal.
And David checked his men with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. And Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on [his] way.
8 Na David el illa tokol ac pangnol, “Tokosra, leum luk!” Na Saul el tapulla, ac David el srimi nwe ten in akfulatyal.
David also arose afterwards, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king! And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and did obeisance.
9 David el fahk, “Efu ku kom lohng kas lun mwet uh ke elos fahk mu nga suk kom in akkolukye moul lom?
And David said to Saul, Why dost thou listen to words of men, saying, Behold, David seeks thy hurt?
10 Kom ku in sifacna liye lah misenge LEUM GOD El eiskomme nu inpouk ke kom muta in luf se inge. Kutu sin mwet luk inge elos tuh fahk nu sik mu ngan unikomi, tuh nga pakomutom ac fahk lah nga ac fah tia oru kutena ma nu sum, mweyen kom pa sulosolla sin LEUM GOD tuh kom in tokosra.
Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that Jehovah had given thee this day into my hand in the cave; and they bade me kill thee; but [mine eye] spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord, for he is the anointed of Jehovah.
11 Ngetma, Papa. Liye ipin nuknuk se inpouk inge! Ma ke nuknuk kom nukum an. Nga ku na in unikomi, tuh nga tiana. Nga lusala mukena ipin nuknuk se inge in akpwayeye nu sum lah wangin nunak koluk luk in lain kom, ku in akkolukye moul lom. Kom sukyu in uniyuwi, finne wangin ma koluk nga oru nu sum.
And see, my father, yes, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand. For in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou liest in wait for my life to take it.
12 LEUM GOD Elan nununku inmasrloktal, lah su kac tafongla uh! Lela tuh Elan oru kai lal nu sum ke ma kom oru in lainyu, tuh nga ac fah tia oru kutena ma in akkolukye moul lom.
Jehovah judge between me and thee, and Jehovah avenge me of thee; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
13 Kom esam soakas se ma fahk mu, ‘Ma koluk uh sikyak sin mwet koluk mukena.’ Ke ma inge, nga ac fah tiana oru ma koluk lain kom.
As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
14 Liyewin, mea se tokosra lun Israel el suk in uniya uh? Liye lah mea se el ukwe uh! Kosro ngalngul misa soko! Kitin kuut!
After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a single flea.
15 LEUM GOD El ac fah oru nununku lal, ac El fah konauk lah su sesr sutuela uh. Lela God Elan suiya ma inge ac karinginyu, ac moliyula liki inpoum.”
Jehovah therefore shall be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and do me justice [in delivering me] out of thy hand.
16 Ke tari sramsram lal David, na Saul el fahk, “David, wen nutik, ku pwayena lah kom pa ingan?” Ac Saul el mutawauk tung.
And as soon as David had ended speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
17 Na el fahk nu sel David, “Pwayena sum, ac nga pa sutuela uh. Kom arulana wo nu sik, a nga oru koluk nu sum!
And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.
18 Misenge kom akkalemye wo lom nu sik, ke kom tia uniyuwi, LEUM GOD El finne eisyuwot nu inpoum.
And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well with me, forasmuch as when Jehovah had delivered me up into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
19 Ya oasr pacl sikyak ouinge, tuh mwet se in sruokya mwet lokoalok lal na fuhlella elan som in misla ac wangin ma koluk el oru nu sel? LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoye kom ke ma kom oru nu sik misenge!
For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore Jehovah reward thee good for that thou hast done to me this day.
20 Inge nga etu suwohs lah kom ac fah tokosra fin Israel, ac tokosrai ac fah oanna ye koko lom.
And now behold, I know that thou shalt certainly be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
21 Tusruktu wulema nu sik ke Inen LEUM GOD tuh kom fah tia kunausla fita luk, tuh inek ac inen sou luk fah tia mulkinyukla.”
Swear now therefore to me by Jehovah, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
22 David el wulela oana siyuk lal Saul. Na Saul el folok nu acn sel, ac David ac mwet lal som nu nien wikwik lalos.
And David swore to Saul. And Saul went home; and David and his men went up to the stronghold.
