< 1 Samoela 21 >
1 Niheo mb’amy Nobe mb’ amy Akimeleke mpisoroñe mb’eo t’i Davide le nihondrahondra mb’amy Davide mb’eo t’i Akimeleke, nanao ty hoe: Manao akore te ihe jòriñe tsy ama’ondaty?
And David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech trembled at meeting David, and said to him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?
2 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Akimeleke mpisoroñe; namantok’ ahy i mpanjakay ami’ty hoe: Ko ampahoniñe’o ndra ia’ia o añirahako azoo, i nandiliako azoy; vaho fa niraheko mb’an-koe’ an-koe o ajalahio.
And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has commanded me a business, and has said to me, Let no man know anything of the business whereon I send thee, and what I have commanded thee; and I have directed the young men to such and such a place.
3 Aa le ino ty ambane fità’o? vonga-mofo lime? atoloro an-tañako, ndra ze zoeñe ao.
And now what is under thy hand? give me five loaves in my hand, or what may be found.
4 Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpisoroñey amy Davide: Tsy ama’ mofo tsotra, fa mofo miavake avao naho toe tsy nañarine ampela o ajalahio.
And the priest answered David and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
5 Le hoe ty natoi’ i Davide amy mpisoroñey, Toe sinebañe tsy ho ama’ay o ampelao ze andro telo izay; ie niakatse mb’etoa, le miavake ty horo’ o ajalahio ndra te tsotra ty lia, àntsak’ anito te hiavake o horo’ iareoo.
And David answered the priest and said to him, Yes indeed, women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the [bread] is in a manner common, and the more so, because to-day [new] is hallowed in the vessels.
6 Aa le tinolo’ i mpisoroñey mofo miavake; fa tsy tao ty mofo naho tsy i mofo miatreke natsoake boak’ añatrefa’ Iehovà nasolo ty mofo mafana amy andro nampitsoahañe azeiy.
And the priest gave him holy [bread]; for there was no bread there but the shew-loaves that were taken from before Jehovah, to put on hot bread in the day when they were taken away.
7 (Teo amy andro zay ty mpitoro’ i Saole, tambatse aolo’ Iehovà; i Doege ty tahina’e, nte-Edome, mpiaolo o mpiara’ i Saoleo.)
(Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before Jehovah; and his name was Doeg, the Edomite, chief of the shepherds that [belonged] to Saul.)
8 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Akimeleke: Tsy ho ambanem-pità’o atoa hao ty lefoñe ndra fibara? izaho tsy ninday ndra fibara ndra o fialiakoo amy te nimeke ty raha’ i mpanjakay.
And David said to Ahimelech, And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, for the king's business was urgent.
9 Le hoe i mpisoroñey: ty fibara’ i Goliate nte-Pilisty zinevo’o am-bavatane’ i Elà, ingo, miforokoko an-damba an-kalo’ o kitambeo; rambeso t’ie no’o; fa tsy aman-tovo’e ty atoa. Le hoe t’i Davide, Tsy eo ty mañirinkiriñe aze, atoloro ahy.
And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of terebinths, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if thou wilt take that, take it; for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that: give it me.
10 Niongak’ amy zao t’i Davide, nibioñe mb’eo ami’ty fihembaña’e i Saole vaho nimb’e Akise mpanjaka’ i Gate mb’eo.
And David arose, and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
11 Le hoe ty asa’ o mpitoro’ i Akiseo ama’e: Tsy i Davide mpanjaka’ i taney hao toke? Tsy ie ty nitakasie’ iereo an-tsinjake, ty hoe: Fa namono ty arivo’e t’i Saole, naho ty aleale’e t’i Davide?
And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul has smitten his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
12 Nahaja’ i Davide an-tro’e ao i entañe zay, vaho nihembaña’e t’i Akise mpanjaka’ i Gate.
And David took to heart these words, and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
13 Aa le novae’e añatrefa’ iereo ty vinta’e nanao sare gege am-pità’ iareo, nanokitsokitse an-dalam-bey eo naho nampiorihe’e am-bolon-tsoma’e ty ìve’e.
And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scratched on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard.
14 Le hoe t’i Akise amo mpitoro’eo, Heheke te seretse t’indaty tiañe; ino ty nandesa’ areo aze amako?
And Achish said to his servants, Behold, ye see the man is mad: why did ye bring him to me?
15 Mipay ondaty gege hao iraho te nandesa’ areo atoy hihisa ami’ty hagegea’e añatrefako etoa? Himoak’ añ’ anjombako ao hao t’indaty tia?
have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this one to rave in my presence? shall this [man] come into my house?
