< 1 Samoela 30 >
1 Ie pok’e Tsiklage t’i Davide naho o mpiama’eo te herone le nizoe’e te tiname o nte Amalekeo i Atimoy naho i Tsiklage, toe rinotsa’ iareo ty Tsiklage vaho finorototo’e añ’afo.
And when David and his men had arrived at Ziklag on the third day, the Amalekites had made an attack on the south side against Ziklag. And they had struck Ziklag, and burned it with fire.
2 Fonga rinambe’ iereo o ampela nizoeñeo, ty tora’e pak’ami’ ty bey; tsy vinono’ iareo fa nendese’ iareo amy lia’ iareoy.
And they had led the women in it away as captives, from the small to the great. And they had not killed anyone, but they led them away with them. And then they traveled on their journey.
3 Aa ie pok’ an-drova’e ao t’i Davide naho ondati’eo, hehe t’ie tineno’ ty afo, le fa hene nasese an-drohy o vali’eo naho o ana-dahi’eo vaho o anak’ ampela’eo.
Therefore, when David and his men had arrived at the city, and had found it burned with fire, and that their wives and their sons and daughters had been led away as captives,
4 Nampipoñake ty rovetse amy zao t’i Davide naho o mpiama’eo, ampara’ te nidrifi’ i harovetsey ty fiai’e.
David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices. And they mourned until the tears in them failed.
5 Tinavañe am-pandrohizañe añe ty vali’ i Davide roe, i Akinoame nte Iezreele naho i Abigale nte Karmele, nivali’ i Nabaley.
For indeed, the two wives of David also had been led away as captives: Ahinoam, the Jezreelite, and Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
6 Niampoheke t’i Davide kanao ho nametsa-bato ama’e ondatio ty amy hafain’ arofo’ iareo amo ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ ampela’eo, fe nañosi-batañe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e t’i Davide.
And David was greatly saddened. And the people were willing to stone him, because the soul of every man was bitter over his sons and daughters. But David was strengthened by the Lord his God.
7 Le hoe t’i Davide amy Abiatare mpisoroñe, Ehe, endeso atoy i kitambey. Le nendese’ i Abiatare mb’amy Davide mb’eo i kitambey.
And he said to the priest Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, “Bring the ephod to me.” And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
8 Nañontane ty hoe am’ Iehovà t’i Davide: Ho horidañeko hao i mpirai-lia zay, hiambotrahako? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Horidaño fa tsi-mete tsy ho tra’o, vaho tsi-mahay tsy ho haha’o iaby.
And David consulted the Lord, saying, “Shall I pursue these robbers, and will I overtake them, or not?” And the Lord said to him: “Pursue. For without doubt, you will overtake them and find the prey.”
9 Aa le nionjomb’eo t’i Davide rekets’ indaty enen-jato mpiama’e rey, naho nimb’an-torahañe Besore mb’eo vaho nitofa eo ty ila’e.
Therefore, David went away, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and they arrived as far as the torrent Besor. And certain ones, being weary, stayed there.
10 Fe nañoridam-b’eo t’i Davide reketse ty lahilahy efa-jato; le nidoñe eo ty roan-jato amy t’ie loho nidazidazìtse tsy nahafitsake i torahañe Besorey.
But David pursued, he and four hundred men. For two hundred stayed, who, being weary, were not able to cross the torrent Besor.
11 Tendrek’ am’ iereo an-kivoke ey t’i nte-Mitsraime, le nasese amy Davide naho nanjotsoañe mofo hikama’e naho rano hinoma’e
And they found an Egyptian man in the field, and they led him to David. And they gave him bread, so that he might eat, and water, so that he might drink,
12 vaho nanjotsoa’ iareo garaton-tsakoa naho valoboke angaroza’e maike roe; aa ie nikama, nimpoly ama’e ty fiai’e, fa telo andro, telo haleñe re tsy nikama mofo ndra ninon-drano.
and also a section of a mass of dried figs, and two clusters of dried grapes. And when he had eaten, his spirit returned, and he was refreshed. For he had not eaten bread, nor drank water, for three days and three nights.
13 Le hoe t’i Davide ama’e: An’ia irehe? vaho boak’ aia? Le hoe re: Ajalahy nte-Mitsraime iraho, mpitoro’ ty nte-Amaleke, le nado’ i talèkoy amy t’ie natindry telo andro.
And so David said to him: “To whom do you belong? Or where are you from? And where are you going?” And he said: “I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalekite man. But my lord abandoned me, because I began to be sick the day before yesterday.
14 Nitamea’ay i Atimo’ o nte-Kereteoy, naho amy fanaña’ Iehoday naho amy Atimo’ i Kalebe vaho finorototo’ay añ’ afo ty Tsiklage.
For indeed, we broke forth to the southern side of Cherethi, and against Judah, and to the south of Caleb, and we burned Ziklag with fire.”
15 Le hoe t’i Davide ama’e: Mete hinday ahy mb’amy lia-raike zay v’iheo? Le hoe re: Mifantà amako aman’ Añahare te tsy hañohofa’o loza, ndra hanolotse ahy am-pitàn-talèko, le ampanjotsoeko mb’ amy mpirai-liay mb’eo.
And David said to him, “Are you able to lead me to this battle line?” And he said, “Swear to me by God that you will not kill me, and that you will not deliver me into the hands of my lord, and I will lead you to this battle line.” And David swore to him.
16 Aa ie nampizotsoe’e mb’eo heheke t’ie niparaitake mb’ eo mb’eo an-tane ey, nifànjotse naho nitohoke an-tsabadidake, ty amy fikopaham-bey nitavane’ iereo an-tane’ o nte-Pilistioy, naho an-tane Iehoday.
And when he had led him, behold, they were stretched out on the face of the land everywhere, eating and drinking and celebrating, as if it were a feast day, because of all the prey and spoils that they had taken from the land of the Philistines, and from the land of Judah.
17 Linafa’ i Davide amy palipalitsieñey pak’ami’ty hariva’ i loak’ àndroy iereo; tsy teo ty nipoliotse am’ iereo naho tsy ty ajalahy efa-jato nijoñe an-drameva vaho nivoratsak’ añe.
And David struck them down from evening until the evening of the next day. And no one among them escaped, except four hundred youths, who had climbed on camels and fled.
18 Rinomba’ i Davide o nipaoha’ o nte-Amalekeo iabio; vaho hinaha’ i Davide i vali’e roe rey.
Therefore, David rescued all that the Amalekites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.
19 Tsy eo ty nipok’ ama’e, ndra ty kede ndra ty bey, ndra ana-dahy ndra anak’ ampela; ndra vara ndra inoñ’ inoñe nitavaneñe am’ iereo; niazo’ i Davide iaby.
And nothing was missing, from small even to great, among the sons and daughters, and among the spoils, and among everything whatsoever that they had seized. David returned it all.
20 Hene nendese’ i Davide o mpirai-lia naho mpiharo-trokeo, le niroahe’ iareo aolo o añombe ila’eo, le hoe ty saontsy: Fikopaha’ i Davide.
And he took all the flocks and the herds, and he drove them before his face. And they said, “This is the prey of David.”
21 Nivotrak’ amy lahilahy roan-jato nimamake tsy nahafañorike i Davide rey t’i Davide, i nampitofàñe an-toraha’ i Besore rey; nionjomb’ amy Davide mb’eo iereo hifanalaka ama’e, naho hifañaoñe am’ ondaty nindre ama’eo; le ie nifanotok’ am’ondatio t’i Davide le nañontanea’e.
Then David arrived at the two hundred men, who, being weary, had stayed, for they had not been able to follow David, and he had ordered them to remain at the torrent Besor. And they went out to meet David, and the people who were with him. Then David, drawing near to the people, greeted them peacefully.
22 Le hoe ty enta’ ondaty tsivokatse naho rati-tserek’ amo mpiamy Davideo: Kanao tsy nindre aman-tika, tsy handiva’ay ndra kede amo vara kinopake rinomba’aio, naho tsy ty vali’ ondaty naho o keleia’eo, hiaoloa’ iereo mb’eo.
And all the wicked and iniquitous men, out of the men who had gone with David, responding, said: “Since they did not go with us, we will not give to them anything from the prey that we have rescued. But let his wife and children be enough for each of them; when they have accepted this, they may go back.”
23 Le hoe t’i Davide, Ko manao zao ry longoko, amo nanolora’ Iehovà antikañeo, ie nañaro antikañe, vaho nanolotse i lia-raike naname antikañey am-pitàn-tika.
But David said: “You shall not do this, my brothers, with these things that the Lord has delivered to us, for he has preserved us, and he has given into our hands the robbers who broke out among us.
24 Ia ty hañaoñe anahareo amo raha zao? Fa ho mira ami’ty anjara’ i nizotso mb’añ’aly mb’eoy ty anjara’ i nitambatse amy kilankañeiy; hifanjara mira iereo.
And so, let no one heed you over these words. But equal shall be the portion of him who descended to the battle, and of him who remained with the supplies, and they will divide it alike.”
25 Izay ty ie mifototse amy andro zay le nanoe’e fañè naho fepètse e Israele ao ampara’ te henane.
And this has been done from that day and thereafter. And it was established as a statute, and as if a law, in Israel even to this day.
26 Aa ie pok’e Tsiklage ao t’i Davide, nampañitrife’e amo roandria’ Iehodao naho amo rañe’eo ty ila’ i varay ami’ty hoe: Ravoravo ho anahareo ami’ty nikopaheñe amo rafelahi’ Iehovào;
Then David went to Ziklag, and he sent gifts from the prey to the elders of Judah, his neighbors, saying, “Receive a blessing from the prey of the enemies of the Lord,”
27 naho amo am-Beteleo naho o an-dRamote Atimoo naho o am-Iatireo
to those who were in Bethel, and who were in Ramoth toward the south, and who were in Jattir,
28 naho o an’Aroereo naho o an-tSipmoteo naho o an’Estemoao
and who were in Aroer, and who were in Siphmoth, and who were in Eshtemoa,
29 naho o an-dRakaleo naho o an-drova’ o nte-Ieakmeeleo naho o androva’ o nte-Kaineoo
and who were in Racal, and who were in the cities of Jerahmeel, and who were in the cities of Keni,
30 naho o an-Kormao naho o an-Korasaneo naho o nte-Atakeo
and who were in Hormah, and who were at the lake of Ashan, and who were in Athach,
31 naho o nte-Kebroneo vaho o an-kene toetse fomba’ i Davide naho ondati’eo.
and who were in Hebron, and to the remainder who were in those places where David had stayed, he and his men.
