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 it came to pass, when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had made a raid upon the south, and upon Ziklag, and smitten 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 had taken the women captives that were in it; both great and small: they had put none to death, but had carried them off, and went on their way.
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.
And David and his men came to the city, and behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives.
4 Nampipoñake ty rovetse amy zao t’i Davide naho o mpiama’eo, ampara’ te nidrifi’ i harovetsey ty fiai’e.
Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
5 Tinavañe am-pandrohizañe añe ty vali’ i Davide roe, i Akinoame nte Iezreele naho i Abigale nte Karmele, nivali’ i Nabaley.
And David's two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jizreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
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 distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him; for the soul of all the people was embittered, every man because of his sons and because of his daughters; but David strengthened himself in Jehovah 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 David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, Bring near to me, I pray thee, the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod near 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 inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou shalt assuredly overtake [them] and shalt certainly recover.
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.
So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor; and those that were left stayed behind.
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.
And David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were too exhausted to go over 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 in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he ate; and they gave him water to 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 gave him a piece of fig-cake and two raisin-cakes, and he ate, and his spirit came again to him; for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk any 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 David said to him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick.
14 Nitamea’ay i Atimo’ o nte-Kereteoy, naho amy fanaña’ Iehoday naho amy Atimo’ i Kalebe vaho finorototo’ay añ’ afo ty Tsiklage.
We made a raid against the south of the Cherethites, and against what [belongs] to Judah, and against 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, Canst thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear to me by God, that thou wilt neither put me to death nor deliver me up into the hand of my master, and I will bring thee down to this troop.
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 he brought him down, and behold, they were spread over the whole land, eating and drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of 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 smote them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day; and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, who rode upon camels, and fled.
18 Rinomba’ i Davide o nipaoha’ o nte-Amalekeo iabio; vaho hinaha’ i Davide i vali’e roe rey.
And David recovered all that the Amalekites had taken: and David recovered 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 there was nothing missed by them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil nor anything that they had taken: David brought all back.
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 David took all the flocks and the herds, [which] they drove before the other cattle, and said, This is David's spoil.
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.
And David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow David, and whom they had left behind at the torrent Besor; and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him; and David drew near to the people and saluted them.
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 men, and [men] of Belial, of those that had gone with David, answered and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them [aught] of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead [them] away and depart.
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.
Then said David, Ye shall not do so, my brethren, with that which Jehovah has given us, who has preserved us, and given the troop that came against us into our hand.
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 who will hearken to you in this matter? For as his share is that goes down to the battle, so shall his share be that abides by the baggage: they shall share alike.
25 Izay ty ie mifototse amy andro zay le nanoe’e fañè naho fepètse e Israele ao ampara’ te henane.
And it was [so] from that day forward; and he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel 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;
And David came to Ziklag, and he sent of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah:
27 naho amo am-Beteleo naho o an-dRamote Atimoo naho o am-Iatireo
to those in Bethel, and to those in south Ramoth, and to those in Jattir,
28 naho o an’Aroereo naho o an-tSipmoteo naho o an’Estemoao
and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,
29 naho o an-dRakaleo naho o an-drova’ o nte-Ieakmeeleo naho o androva’ o nte-Kaineoo
and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,
30 naho o an-Kormao naho o an-Korasaneo naho o nte-Atakeo
and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-ashan, and to those in Athach,
31 naho o nte-Kebroneo vaho o an-kene toetse fomba’ i Davide naho ondati’eo.
and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men went about.
