1 Samoela 22
1 Aa le nienga t’i Davide, niherereake mb’an-dakato’ i Adolame ao, le ie jinanji’ o longo’eo naho i anjomban-drae’e iabiy le nizotso mb’ama’e mb’eo.
And David departed thence, and escaped; and he comes to the cave of Odollam, and his brethren hear, and the house of his father, and they go down to him there.
2 Ze hene niampoheke, naho o mpisongoo, naho o nafaitse an-trokeo ro nifanontoñe ama’e ao, le nifehè’e; va’e efajato o nirekets’ ama’eo.
And there gathered to him every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was troubled in mind; and he was a leader over them, and there were with him about four hundred men.
3 Niakatse boak’ao t’i Davide nimb’e Mitspè e Moabe mb’eo, le nanao ty hoe amy mpanjaka’ i Moabey. Ehe apoho holy mb’ etoa hey ty raeko naho i reneko ho ama’o ampara’ te fantako ty hanoen’ Añahare amako.
And David departed thence to Massephath of Moab, and said to the king of Moab, Let, I pray you, my father and my mother be with you, until I know what God will do to me.
4 Aa le nasese’e añatrefa’ i mpanjaka’ i Moabey iereo vaho nimoneñe ama’e ao amy ze andro iaby naha am-pipalirañ’ ao t’i Davide.
And he persuaded the King of Moab, and they dwell with him continually, while David was in the hold.
5 Le hoe ty Gade, mpitoky, amy Davide, ko mipalitse an-kijoly ao; iengao le akia mb’an-tane’ Iehodà añe. Aa le nienga t’i Davide naho nimoak’ amy ala’ i Keretey ao.
And Gad the prophet said to David, Dwell not in the hold: go, and you shall enter the land of Juda. So David went, and came and lived in the city of Saric.
6 Jinanji’ i Saole te nioniñe t’i Davide rekets’ o mpiama’eo; niambesatse e Gibà t’i Saole ambane’ ty hatae e Ramà ao, am-pità’e ty lefo’e, vaho nijohanjohañe añariseho aze iaby o mpitoro’eo;
And Saul heard that David was discovered, and his men with him: now Saul lived in the hill below the field that is in Rama, and his spear [was] in his hand, and all his servants stood near him.
7 le hoe t’i Saole amo mpitoro’e mijohañe ama’eo, Mijanjiña ry nte-Beniamineo, Tinolo’ i ana’ Iisaiiy teteke naho tanem-bahe iaby hao nahareo; songa hanoe’e mpifelek’ arivo naho mpifehe-zato hao?
And Saul said to his servants that stood by him, Hear now, you sons of Benjamin, will the son of Jessae indeed give all of you fields and vineyards, and will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands?
8 kanao sindre mikilily ahy, leo raike tsy nampiboak’ amako te nifañina amy ana’ Iisaiy i anakoy, le tsy eo ty manahelo ahy hitalilia’e te nitroboe’ i anakoy i mpitorokoy, hamandroña’e ahiko, manahake androany?
That you are conspiring against me, and there is no one that informs me, whereas my son has made a covenant with the son of Jessae, and there is no one of you that is sorry for me, or informs me, that my son has stirred up my servant against me for an enemy, as [it is] this day?
9 Le hoe ty natoi’ i Doege nte Edome, i natao ambone’ o mpitoro’ i Saoleoy: Nitreako te nimb’e Nobe mb’e Akimelek’ ana’ i Ahitobe mb’eo ty ana’ Iisay.
And Doec the Syrian who was over the mules of Saul answered and said, I saw the son of Jessae as he came to Nomba to Abimelech son of Achitob the priest.
10 Ie nañontane am’ Iehovà ho aze naho nivatie’e vaho natolo’e aze ty fibara’ i Goliate nte-Pilistiy.
And [the priest] enquired of God for him, and gave him provision, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
11 Aa le nampañitrife’ i mpanjakay t’i Akimeleke mpisoroñe ana’ i Ahitobe naho i anjomban-drae’e iabiy, o mpisoroñe e Nobeo; le fonga niheo mb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo.
And the king sent to call Abimelech son of Achitob and all his father's sons, the priests that were in Nomba; and they all came to the king.
12 Le hoe t’i Saole: Mijanjiña henaneo ry ana’ i Ahitobe; le hoe ty natoi’e, Intoy iraho talèko.
And Saul said, Hear now, you son of Achitob. And he said, Behold! I [am here], speak, [my] lord.
13 Le hoe t’i Saole ama’e: Akore ty nikinià’ areo ahiko, ihe naho i ana’ Isaìy, kanao tinolo’o mofo naho fibara vaho nañontane aman’ Añahare ho aze, soa t’ie hitroatse amako, hiampira’e, manahake androany.
And Saul said to him, Why have you and the son of Jessae conspired against me, that you should give him bread and a sword, and should enquire of God for him, to raise him up against me as an enemy, as [he is] this day?
14 Tinoi’ i Akimeleke i mpanjakay ami’ty hoe: Aa vaho ia amo mpitoro’oo ty atokisañe mandikoatse i Davide, vinanto’ i mpanjakay, i mañaoñe o fandilia’o iabio naho iasiañe añ’anjomba’o ao?
And he answered the king, and said, And who [is] there amongst all your servants faithful as David, and [he is] a son-in-law of the king, and [he is] executor of all your commands, and [is] honourable in your house?
15 Androany hao ty nañontaneako aman’Añahare ho aze? mitotse ahy izay; ehe te tsy asarà’ i mpanjakay ndra inoñ’ inoñe amy mpitoro’ey naho aman’ anjomban-droaeko; fa ke maro he tsy ampe tsy apota’ o mpitoro’oo o raha zao.
Have I begun today to enquire of God for him? By no means: let not the king bring a charge against his servant, and against you whole of my father's house; for your servant knew not in all these matters anything great or small.
16 Le hoe i mpanjakay: Tsy mete tsy havetrake irehe Akimeleke rekets’ o anjomban-drae’o iabio.
And king Saul said, You shall surely die, Abimelech, you, and all your father's house.
17 Le hoe i mpanjakay amo mpigaritse nijohanjohañe ama’e eo iabio; Mitoliha, fonga zamano o mpisoro’ Iehovào; amy te mpiamy Davide ka ty fità’ iareo naho napota’ iareo t’ie nibioñe fa tsy naboa’ iareo amako. Fe tsy nimete nañity fitàñe hiambotrake amo mpisoro’ Iehovào o mpitoro’ i mpanjakaio.
And the king said to the footmen that attended on him, Draw near and kill the priests of the Lord, because their hand [is] with David, and because they knew that he fled, and they did not inform me. But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to fall upon the priest of the Lord.
18 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Doege: Mitoliha, ambotraho o mpisoroñeo. Aa le nitolike t’i Doege nte Edome, niambotrak’ amo mpisoroñeo vaho zinama’e amy àndroy t’indaty valompolo-lim’ amby mpisikiñe i kitambe lèniy.
And the king said to Doec, Turn you, and fall upon the priests: and Doec the Syrian turned, and killed the priests of the Lord in that day, three hundred and five men, all wearing an ephod.
19 Le fonga binaibai’e an-dela-pibara ty Nobe, i rova’ i mpisoroñe reiy, lahilahy naho ampela, ajaja naho anak’ ajaja minono, añombe naho borìke vaho añondry an-dela-pibara.
And he struck Nomba the city of the priest with the edge of the sword, both man, and woman, infant and suckling, and calf, and ox, and sheep.
20 Nipoliotse añe ty raik’ amo ana’ i Akimelek’ ana’ i Ahitobeo, Abiatare ty tahina’e, nitriban-day mb’amy Davide mb’eo.
And one son of Abimelech son of Achitob escapes, and his name [was] Abiathar, and he fled after David.
21 Natalili’ i Abiatare amy Davide te zinama’ i Saole o mpisoro’ Iehovào.
And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain all the priests of the Lord.
22 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abiatare, Napotako amy andro zay, kanao tao t’i Doege nte Edome le tsy mete tsy hitalily amy Saole; izaho ty nahavilasy o hene ondatin’ anjomban-drae’oo.
And David said to Abiathar, I knew it in that day, that Doec the Syrian would surely tell Saul: I am guilty of the death of the house of your father.
23 Mimoneña amako, le ko hembañe fa i mipay ty fiaikoy ro mipay ty azo ka; le am-pitsolohan-drehe te amako.
Dwell with me; fear not, for wherever I shall seek a place [of safety] for my life, I will also seek a place for your life, for you are safely guarded [while] with me.
