1 Samoela 29
1 Ary ny Filistina dia namory ny miaramilany rehetra ho ao Afeka; fa ny Isiraely kosa nitoby teo anilan’ ny loharano ao Jezirela.
And the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek; and Israel encamped by the spring that is in Jizreel.
2 Ary ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina nandroso nitarika ny miaramilany isan-jato sy isan’ arivo; fa Davida sy ny olony kosa nandroso teo aoriana niaraka tamin’ i Akisy.
And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rearward with Achish.
3 Ary hoy ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina: Haninona moa ireto Hebreo ireto? Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina: Tsy io va no Davida, mpanompon’ i Saoly, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ilay tatỳ amiko elaela ihany izay, ary tsy hitako izay tsininy hatrizay nialany niandany tamiko ka mandraka androany?
And the princes of the Philistines said, What are these Hebrews? And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or these years, and I have found nothing in him since the day of his falling away [to me] to this day?
4 Dia tezitra taminy ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina ka nanao taminy hoe: Avereno ihany ilehio ho any amin’ ny fonenany izay efa nomenao azy, fa aza avela hidina hiaraka amintsika hiady izy, fandrao ho tonga fahavalontsika raha miady; fa amin’ inona no hahazoan’ io sitraka amin’ ny tompony? Tsy amin’ ny lohan’ ireto olona ireto va?
But the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, Make the man return, that he may go again to his place where thou hast appointed him, that he go not down with us to the battle, that in the battle he be not an adversary to us; for wherewith should this [fellow] reconcile himself to his master? should it not be with the heads of these men?
5 Tsy io moa no Davida, izay nandihizany sy nanaovany hira mifamaly hoe: “Saoly nahafaty arivoarivo, Fa Davida nahafaty alinalina?”
Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul smote his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
6 Ary Akisy niantso an’ i Davida ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, marina ianao, sady sitrako ny iarahanao miditra sy mivoaka amiko eto an-toby, fa tsy hitako izay tsininao hatrizay nahatongavanao teto amiko ka mandraka androany; nefa kosa tsy sitrak’ ireo andriana ireo ianao.
And Achish called David, and said to him, [As] Jehovah liveth, thou art upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the camp is acceptable to me; for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming to me to this day; but thou art not acceptable to the lords.
7 Koa miverena, ary mandehana soa aman-tsara, mba tsy hanaovanao izay tsy sitrak’ ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina.
And now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines.
8 Fa hoy Davida tamin’ i Akisy: Inona no nataoko, ary inona no hitanao tamin’ ny mpanomponao hatrizay nitoerako tatỳ aminao ka mandraka androany, no tsy hahazoako mandeha hiady amin’ ny fahavalon’ ny mpanjaka tompoko?
And David said to Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee to this day, that I should not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?
9 Ary Akisy namaly an’ i Davida hoe: Fantatro fa tsara eo imasoko tahaka ny anjelin’ Andriamanitra ianao; nefa ireo andrianan’ ny Filistina no nanao hoe: Tsy hiara-miakatra amintsika hiady izy.
And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art acceptable to me, as an angel of God; nevertheless the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.
10 Koa mifohaza maraina koa ianao mbamin’ ny mpanompon’ ny tomponao izay nanaraka anao; ary rehefa nifoha maraina ianareo, ka mazava ny andro, dia mandehana.
And now rise up early in the morning with thy master's servants that are come with thee; and rise ye early in the morning, and when ye have daylight, depart.
11 Ary Davida sy ny olony nifoha maraina koa handeha maraina hiverina any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina. Ary ny Filistina dia niakatra nankany Jezirela.
And David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jizreel.
