1 Samwiri 18
1 Awo Dawudi bwe yamala okwogera ne Sawulo, Yonasaani n’aba bumu ne Dawudi, era n’amwagala nnyo nga bwe yali yeeyagala.
And it was doon, whanne Dauid `hadde endid to speke to Saul, the soule of Jonathas was glued togidre to the soule of Dauid, and Jonathas louyde hym as his owne soule.
2 Okuva ku lunaku olwo Sawulo n’atwala Dawudi okubeera naye, n’atamuganya kuddayo mu nnyumba ya kitaawe.
And Saul took Dauid in that dai, and grauntide not `to hym, `that he schulde turne ayen in to `the hows of his fadir.
3 Awo Yonasaani n’atta omukago ne Dawudi kubanga yamwagala nnyo nga bwe yali yeeyagala yekka.
Forsothe Jonathas and Dauid maden boond of pees, `that is, swerynge euerlastynge frenschip; for Jonathas louyde Dauid as his owne soule;
4 Yonasaani ne yeeyambulamu ekyambalo kye yali ayambadde n’ekanzu ye, ne yeesumulula n’ekitala kye, n’omutego gwe n’olukoba lwe, n’abiwa Dawudi.
for whi Jonathas dispuylide him silf fro the coote `in which he was clothid, and yaf it to Dauid, and hise othere clothis, `til to his swerd and bouwe, and `til to the girdil.
5 Buli kintu Sawulo kye yatumanga Dawudi, Dawudi n’akituukirizanga bulungi nnyo, era Sawulo kyeyava amuwa ekifo ekyawaggulu mu magye. Ekyo ne kisanyusa abantu bonna, n’abakungu ba Sawulo.
Also Dauid yede out to alle thingis, to what euer thingis Saul `hadde sent hym, and he gouernede hym silf prudentli; and Saul settide hym ouer the men of batel, and `he was acceptid, `ether plesaunt, in the iyen of al the puple, and moost in the siyt of `the seruauntis of Saul.
6 Awo abasajja bwe baali nga bakomawo eka, Dawudi ng’amaze okutta Omufirisuuti, abakazi ne bava mu bibuga byonna ebya Isirayiri nga bayimba era nga bazina, okusisinkana kabaka Sawulo, nga bayimba ennyimba ez’essanyu, nga balina ebitaasa n’entongooli.
Forsothe whanne Dauid turnede ayen, whanne `the Filistei was slayn, and bar the heed of `the Filistei in to Jerusalem, wymmen yeden out of alle the citees of Israel, and sungen, and ledden queris, ayens the comyng of king Saul, in tympans of gladnesse, and in trumpis.
7 Baazinanga ate nga bwe bayimba nti, “Sawulo asse enkumi ze Dawudi n’atta emitwalo gye.”
And the wymmen sungen, pleiynge, and seiynge, Saul smoot a thousynde, and Dauid smoot ten thousynde.
8 Sawulo olwawulira ebigambo ebyo n’asunguwala nnyo, era ne kimukola bubi nnyo. N’ayogera nti, “Dawudi bamuwaanye n’emitwalo, nze ne bampaana n’enkumi; kiki ky’ataafune bw’ataalye bwakabaka?”
Saul was wrooth greetli, and this word displeside `in his iyen; and he seide, Thei yauen ten thousynde to Dauid, and `thei yauen a thousynde to me; what leeueth to hym, no but the rewme aloone?
9 Awo okuva mu kiseera ekyo Sawulo n’akwatirwa Dawudi obuggya.
Therfor Saul bihelde Dauid not with `riytful iyen, `fro that dai and afterward.
10 Olunaku olwaddirira omwoyo omubi okuva eri Katonda ne gujja ku Sawulo n’amaanyi mangi, n’ayogera eby’obunnabbi mu lubiri lwe, Dawudi nga bw’akuba entongooli nga bwe yakolanga buli lunaku. Sawulo yalina effumu mu ngalo ze,
Sotheli aftir the tother dai a wickid spirit of God asailide Saul, and he propheciede in the myddis of his hows.
11 n’alikasuka, ng’ayogera mu mutima gwe nti, “Kanfumite Dawudi mmukwasize ku kisenge.” Naye Dawudi n’alyewoma emirundi ebiri.
Forsothe Dauid harpide with his hond, as bi alle daies; and Saul helde a spere, and caste it, and gesside that he myyte prene Dauid with the wal, that is, perse with the spere, so that it schulde passe til to the wal; and Dauid bowide `fro his face the secounde tyme.
12 Awo Sawulo n’atya Dawudi, kubanga Mukama yali wamu naye, kyokka ng’avudde ku Sawulo.
And Saul dredde Dauid, for the Lord was with hym, and hadde go awei fro him silf.
13 Sawulo kyeyava aziyiza Dawudi okujja mu maaso ge n’amufuula omuduumizi ow’abasajja olukumi, era olw’omulimu ogwo ne yeeyongera okwatiikirira mu bantu.
Therfor Saul remouide Dauid fro hym silf, and made hym tribune on a thousynde men; and Dauid yede out and entride in `the siyt of the puple.
14 Dawudi n’afuna omukisa mu buli kye yakolanga, kubanga Mukama yali wamu naye.
And Dauid dide warli in alle hise weies, and the Lord was with hym;
15 Awo Sawulo bwe yalaba Dawudi ng’afuna emikisa, n’amutya.
and so Saul siy that Dauid was ful prudent, and he bigan to be war of Dauid.
16 Naye Isirayiri yenna ne Yuda ne baagala Dawudi, kubanga yakulemberanga bulungi.
Forsothe al Israel and Juda louyden Dauid; for he entride and yede out bifor hem.
17 Awo Sawulo n’agamba Dawudi nti, “Nzija kukuwa muwala wange omukulu Merabu, abe mukyala wo, mpeereza n’obuvumu era lwana entalo za Mukama.” Sawulo n’ateesa mu mutima gwe nti, “Kikafuuwe nze okugolola omukono gwange okumukolako akabi. Ekyo Abafirisuuti be balikikola.”
And Saul seide to Dauid, Lo! `my more douytir Merob, Y schal yiue her wijf to thee; oneli be thou a strong man, and fiyte thou the `batels of the Lord. Forsothe Saul `arettide, and seide, Myn hond be not in hym, but the hond of Filisteis be on hym.
18 Naye Dawudi n’agamba Sawulo nti, “Nze ani, n’ennyumba ye waffe be baani, era n’ekika kya kitange kye kiki mu Isirayiri, nze okuba mukoddomi wa kabaka?”
Sotheli Dauid seide to Saul, Who am Y, ether what is my lijf, ether the meynee of my fadir in Israel, that Y be maad the `sone in lawe of the kyng?
19 Naye ekiseera bwe kyatuuka omuwala wa Sawulo Merabu okuweebwa Dawudi, ne bamuwa Aduliyeri Omumekolasi okumuwasa.
Forsothe the tyme `was maad whanne Merob, the douyter of Saul, `ouyte to be youun to Dauid, sche was youun wijf to Hadriel Molatite.
20 Awo muwala wa Sawulo omulala Mikali yali ayagala Dawudi, era Sawulo bwe yakiwulira, n’akisanyukira.
Forsothe Dauid louide Mychol, the douytir of Saul; and it was teld to Saul, and it pleside hym.
21 Sawulo n’alowooza mu mutima gwe nti, “Nzija kumumuwa afuuke omutego, omukono gw’Abafirisuuti gulyoke gumuzikirize.” Sawulo kyeyava agamba Dawudi nti, “Kaakano ofunye omukisa ogwokubiri okuba mukoddomi wange.”
And Saul seide, Y schal yyue hir to hym, that it be to hym in to sclaundir, and the hond of Filisteis be on hym. Therfor Saul seide to Dauid, In `twei douytris thou schalt be my sone in lawe to dai.
22 Awo Sawulo n’alagira abaweereza be nti, “Mwogere ne Dawudi kyama mumugambe nti, ‘Laba, kabaka akusanyukira, ate n’abaweereza be bonna bakwagala, noolwekyo beera mukoddomi wa kabaka.’”
And Saul comaundide to hise seruauntis, Speke ye to Dauid, while it `is hid fro me, and seie ye, Lo! thou plesist the king, and alle hise seruauntis louen thee; now therfor be thou hosebonde of the `douytir of the kyng.
23 Ebigambo ebyo ne babitegeeza Dawudi. Naye Dawudi n’ayogera nti, “Mulowooza nga kintu kitono okubeera mukoddomi wa kabaka? Nze ndi musajja mwavu atamanyiddwa nnyo.”
And the seruauntis of Saul spaken alle these wordis in the eeris of Dauid. And Dauid seide, Whether it semeth litil to you `to be sone in lawe of the kyng? Forsothe Y am a pore man, and a feble.
24 Abaweereza ba Sawulo ne bamutuusaako ebigambo bya Dawudi.
And the seruauntis telden to Saul, and seiden, Dauid spak siche wordis.
25 Sawulo n’addamu nti, “Mugambe Dawudi nti, ‘Tewali kirala kabaka ky’ayagala okuggyako ebikuta by’Abafirisuuti kikumi okwesasuza ku balabe be, n’oluvannyuma onoowasa muwala we.’” Sawulo yali ayagala Dawudi attibwe Abafirisuuti.
Sotheli Saul seide, Thus speke ye to Dauid, The kyng hath no nede to yiftis for spowsails, no but onely to an hundrid prepucies, `that is, mennus yerdis vncircumcidid, `of Filisteis, that veniaunce be maad of the kyngis enemyes. Certis Saul thouyte to bitake Dauid in to the hondis of Filisteis.
26 Awo abaweereza be ne bagenda ne bategeeza Dawudi ebigambo ebyo, Dawudi n’asanyuka nnyo okuba mukoddomi wa kabaka. Awo ekiseera ekiragaane nga tekinnaba na kuyitawo,
And whanne the seruauntis of Saul hadden teld to Dauid the wordis, whiche Saul hadde seid, the word pleside `in the iyen of Dauid, that he schulde be maad the kyngis son in lawe.
27 Dawudi n’abasajja be ne bagenda ne batta Abafirisuuti ebikumi bibiri. N’aleeta ebikuta byabwe, n’awaayo omuwendo ogutuukiridde eri kabaka, alyoke abeere mukoddomi wa kabaka. Awo Sawulo n’alyoka amuwa muwala we Mikali amuwase.
And aftir a fewe daies Dauid roos, and yede in to Acharon, with the men that weren with hym, and he killide of Filisteis twei hundrid men; and brouyte `the prepucies of hem, and noumbride tho to the kyng, that he schulde be the kyngis sone in lawe. And so Saul yaf Mycol, his douyter, wiif to hym.
28 Naye Sawulo bwe yategeera nga Mukama ali wamu ne Dawudi, ate nga ne muwala we Mikali ayagala Dawudi,
And Saul siy, and vndirstood, that the Lord was with Dauid.
29 Sawulo ne yeeyongera okumutya, era n’aba mulabe wa Dawudi okuva mu kiseera ekyo.
Forsothe Mychol, `the douyter of Saul, louide Dauid, and Saul bigan more to drede Dauid; and Saul was maad enemye to Dauid in alle daies.
30 Abaduumizi b’Abafirisuuti ne beeyongera okubatabaalanga, era buli lwe baabalumbanga, Dawudi n’awangulanga okusinga n’Abaserikale ba Sawulo abalala bonna. Erinnya lya Dawudi ne lyatiikirira nnyo.
And the princes of Filisteis yeden out; forsothe fro the bigynnyng of her goyng out Dauyd bar hym silf more warli than alle the men of Saul; and the name of Dauid was maad ful solempne.
