Sie Samuel 29

1 Mwet Philistia elos pangoneni mwet mweun lalos nukewa nu Aphek, ac mwet Israel elos tulokinya nien aktuktuk lalos sisken unon in kof se ke Infahlfal Jezreel.

Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which is in Jezreel.

2 Tokosra limekosr lun mwet Philistia elos takla fahsr wi kais siofok ac kais tausin mwet mweun lalos. David ac mwet lal elos welul Tokosra Achish fahsr tok.

And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rear guard with Achish.

3 Na captain lun un mwet mweun Philistia elos liyalos ac siyuk, “Mea mwet Hebrew inge oru uh?” Tokosra Achish el topuk, “David pa inge. El sie mwet pwapa lun un mwet mweun lal Saul, tokosra lun mwet Israel. El muta yuruk paht kutu, ac wanginna ma nga liye el oru koluk, ke len se el tuku wiyula nwe inge.”

Then said the princes of the Philistines, What do these Hebrews here? And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which has been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell to me to this day?

4 Tusruktu captain lun mwet Philistia inge elos mulat sel Tokosra Achish, ac fahk nu sel, “Folokunla mwet se ingan nu ke siti se ma kom sang lal ah. Nimet fuhlela elan wi kut mweun. Sahp el ac tuh forma lain kut ke mweun uh. Mea wo mwet se inge el ku in oru in akwoyalla nu sin leum lal sayen mwet lasr inge in misa?

And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, Make this fellow return, that he may go again to his place which you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us: for with which should he reconcile himself to his master? should it not be with the heads of these men?

5 Esam lah David pa inge, mwet se na ma mutan uh onkakin ac onsrosro kac ac fahk, ‘Saul el uniya tausin, a David el uniya ngoul tausin.’”

Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

6 Na Tokosra Achish el pangnolma David ac fahk nu sel, “Nga fulahk ye mutun God moul lun Israel lah kom arulana pwaye nu sik, ac nga arulana insewowo tuh kom in wiyu som mweun inge. Nga soenna konauk kutena ma sufal in kom, e ke na len se ma kom tuku nu yuruk ah nwe misenge. Tusruktu, tokosra wiuk inge elos alolo sum.

Then Achish called David, and said to him, Surely, as the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the host is good in my sight: for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day: nevertheless the lords favor you not.

7 Tari, kom folokla nu in acn sum in misla, ac nimet oru kutena ma in aktoasryalos.”

Why now return, and go in peace, that you displease not the lords of the Philistines.

8 David el topuk, “Leum luk, ku mea nga oru sufal? Fin pwaye lah kom soenna konauk kutena ma sufal yuruk ke nga mutawauk in kulansupwekom nwe misenge, oana ma kom fahk inge, na efu ku nga kofla in wi mweuni mwet lokoalok lom, lah kom pa leum luk ac tokosra luk?”

And David said to Achish, But what have I done? and what have you found in your servant so long as I have been with you to this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?

9 Tokosra Achish el topuk, “Aok, pwaye sum. Nga akilen mu suwohs lom oana suwohs lun sie lipufan lun God. Tusruktu, tokosra wiuk inge elos fahk tari mu kom tia ku in wi kut mweun.

And Achish answered and said to David, I know that you are good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.

10 Na pa lututang kowos nukewa su tuku lukel Saul nu yuruk, kowos toang tukakek ac folokla nu yen suwos ke tufahna kalmelik.”

Why now rise up early in the morning with your master’s servants that are come with you: and as soon as you be up early in the morning, and have light, depart.

11 Ouinge David ac mwet lal elos toang tukakek ke lotu tok ah, ac folok nu yen selos in acn Philistia, ac mwet Philistia elos fahlana nu Jezreel.

So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
