1 USamuyeli 17
1 AmaFilisti asebuthela amabutho awo impi; abuthana eSoko engeyakoJuda, amisa inkamba phakathi kweSoko leAzeka, eEfesi-Damimi.
Mwet Philistia elos solani un mwet mweun lalos nu Socoh, sie siti srisrik in acn Judah, ac akola nu ke mweun. Elos tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos in acn se pangpang Ephes Dammim, su oan inmasrlon Socoh ac Azekah.
2 USawuli lamadoda akoIsrayeli babuthana, bamisa inkamba esigodini seEla, bahlela impi ukumelana lamaFilisti.
Saul ac mwet Israel elos toeni ac tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos Infahlfal Elah, na elos akoo pac in mweun lain mwet Philistia.
3 AmaFilisti asesima entabeni ngapha, loIsrayeli wema entabeni ngale, lesigodi sasiphakathi kwabo.
Mwet Philistia elos takla tu ke soko eol uh, ac mwet Israel ke soko pac eol, ac infahlfal se oan inmasrlolos.
4 Kwasekuphuma enkambeni yamaFilisti iqhawe; ibizo lalo lalinguGoliyathi weGathi; ubude balo babuyizingalo eziyisithupha lokwelulwa kweminwe.
Oasr sie mwet pangpang Goliath, el mwet in siti Gath. El illa liki nien aktuktuk lun mwet Philistia ac solsol anwuk nu sin mwet Israel. Lusal alukela fit eu,
5 Kwakulekhowa lethusi ekhanda lalo; laligqoke ibhatshi lensimbi elilamaxolo; njalo isisindo sebhatshi lensimbi sasingamashekeli ethusi ayizinkulungwane ezinhlanu.
ac el nukum nuknuk orek ke osra bronze, toasriya akuran sun paun siofok longoul limekosr, ac mwe susu lal orek pac ke osra bronze.
6 Njalo kwakulemigwamazi yethusi emibaleni yalo, lomkhonto wethusi phakathi laphakathi kwamahlombe alo.
Nial nukla pac ke osra bronze, ac el us osra in fakfuk soko finpisal.
7 Loluthi lomkhonto walo lwalunjengogodo lomaluki, lengqamu yomkhonto walo yayingamashekeli ensimbi angamakhulu ayisithupha; lophatha isihlangu esikhulu wayehamba phambi kwalo.
Fungin osra soko natul yohk oana sak ke mwe otwot nuknuk, ac mutun osra soko ah orek ke osra iron su toasriya akuran paun singoul limekosr. Sie mwet mweun el fahsr meet lukel ac us mwe loang lal uh.
8 Lema, lamemeza emaviyweni akoIsrayeli lathi kuwo: Liphumelani ukuzahlela impi? Kangisuye umFilisti yini, lani izinceku zikaSawuli? Zikhetheleni umuntu ehlele kimi.
Goliath el tu ac wowo nu sin mwet Israel ac fahk, “Mea kowos oru ingan? Ya kowos takla akola in mweun? Nga sie mwet Philistia, ac kowos mwet kohs lal Saul! Sulela sie mwet lowos an in tuku lainyu.
9 Uba elakho ukulwa lami angibulale, sizakuba yizigqili zenu; kodwa uba mina ngimehlula ngimbulale, lizakuba yizigqili zethu, lisisebenzele.
El fin kutangla ac uniyuwi, na kut ac fah mwet kohs lowos. A nga fin kutangla ac unilya, na kowos ac fah mwet kohs lasr.
10 UmFilisti wasesithi: Mina ngiyaweyisa amaviyo akoIsrayeli lamuhla; nginikani indoda ukuze silwisane.
Inge misenge nga tuyak ac akola in lain un mwet mweun lun mwet Israel. Nga tia sensen in fahkot: sulela sie mwet an nga el in anwuk!”
11 Lapho uSawuli loIsrayeli wonke besizwa lamazwi omFilisti, batshaywa luvalo, besaba kakhulu.
Ke Saul ac mwet lal elos lohng kas inge, elos arulana sangeng.
12 UDavida wayeyindodana yalowomEfrathi weBhethelehema-Juda, obizo lakhe lalinguJese; wayelamadodana ayisificaminwembili. Njalo lowomuntu wahamba njengomuntu omdala phakathi kwamadoda ensukwini zikaSawuli.
David el wen natul Jesse, sie mwet Ephrathah su muta Bethlehem in acn Judah. Oasr wen oalkosr natul Jesse, ac in pacl se Saul el tokosra, Jesse el arulana matuoh.
13 Asehamba amadodana amathathu kaJese amadala, amlandela uSawuli empini. Lamabizo amadodana akhe amathathu ayeyile empini ayenguEliyabi izibulo, lowesibili wakhe uAbinadaba, lowesithathu uShama.
Wen tolu natul Jesse ma matu eltal welul Saul oasr ke nien mweun uh. Ma se ma matu uh pa Eliab, ma se akluo uh pa Abinadab, ac aktolu pa Shammah.
14 Njalo uDavida nguye owayelicinathunjana; lamathathu amadala alandela uSawuli.
David pa fusr emeet, ac ke pacl tamulel tolu ma matu uh welul Saul,
15 Kodwa uDavida wahamba wabuyela esuka kuSawuli ukuyakwelusa izimvu zikayise eBhethelehema.
na David el ac folok nu Bethlehem kais kutu pacl in karingin sheep nutin papa tumal.
16 UmFilisti wayesondela-ke ekuseni kakhulu lantambama ezimisa okwensuku ezingamatshumi amane.
Goliath el kusen mukul nu sin mwet Israel lotutang ac eku nukewa ke lusen len angngaul.
17 UJese wasesithi kuDavida indodana yakhe: Ake uthathele abafowenu i-efa lamabele akhanzingiweyo, lalezizinkwa ezilitshumi, ugijimele enkambeni kubafowenu.
Sie len ah Jesse el fahk nu sel David, “Us tafun bushel in fiten wheat manman inge ac lof singoul inge, ac sulaklak nu yurin tamulel wiom in nien aktuktuk uh.
18 Laleziziqa zetshizi ezilitshumi uziphathele induna yenkulungwane; ubone impilakahle yabafowenu, uthathe isibambiso kibo.
Ac us ipin cheese singoul inge nu sin captain lun un mwet mweun an. Srike liye lah tamulel lom ah fuka, na kom fah foloko ac use sie ma in akpwayeye lah kom sonoltal ac lah eltal ku na.
19 Njalo uSawuli, labo, lawo wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli babesesigodini seEla besilwa lamaFilisti.
Tokosra Saul, ac tamulel lom, ac mwet Israel nukewa elos muta Infahlfal Elah ac mweuni mwet Philistia.”
20 UDavida wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, watshiya izimvu kumlindi, wakuthatha wahamba njengokulaywa kwakhe nguJese. Wafika enqabeni yezinqola lapho ibutho liphuma ngamaviyo, bememezela impi.
Len tok ah David el toangna tukakek ac el sap sie pac mwet in muta karingin sheep uh. Na el eis mwe mongo ma akoeyuk, ac som oana Jesse el tuh fahk nu sel. Ke el sun nien aktuktuk lun mwet mweun Israel, falyang na nu ke pacl se elos sasa, illa ac takla in mweun.
21 Njalo uIsrayeli lamaFilisti bahlela iviyo laqondana leviyo.
Un mwet mweun lun mwet Philistia ac mwet Israel elos tuyak ac ngetani nu sie akola nu ke mweun.
22 UDavida wasetshiya impahla ezisuka kuye ngaphansi kwesandla somlindi wempahla, wagijimela eviyweni wafika wabuza abafowabo impilakahle.
David el filiya mwe mongo el us yurin mwet se ma liyaung kufwen mwe mweun, na el kasrusr nu ke acn se mwet mweun takla we ah, ac suk mwet wial ah. Na el siyuk seltal lah eltal fuka.
23 Esakhuluma labo, khangela, iqhawe lenyuka, ibizo lalo lalinguGoliyathi, umFilisti weGathi, laphuma emaviyweni amaFilisti, lakhuluma njengokwalawomazwi; loDavida wawezwa.
Ke el srakna sramsram nu seltal, Goliath el fahsryak nu meet, ac el sifilpa kusen mukul nu sin mwet Israel oana ke el oru meet ah. Ac David el lohng ma Goliath el fahk inge.
24 Njalo wonke amadoda akoIsrayeli athi embona lowomuntu ambalekela, esaba kakhulu.
Ke mwet Israel elos liyal Goliath elos sangeng ac kaing.
25 Amadoda akoIsrayeli athi-ke: Limbonile lowana umuntu owenyukileyo yini? Ngoba wenyukele ukweyisa uIsrayeli. Kuzakuthi-ke indoda ezambulala, inkosi izayinothisa ngenotho enkulu, iyinike lendodakazi yayo, lendlu kayise izayenza ikhululeke koIsrayeli.
Elos fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Liyalwin! Lohng kusen mukul lal ingan! Tokosra Saul el wulela mu el ac sang moul na yohk nu sin mwet se su ac uniya mwet Philistia sacn. El ac sang acn natul in payukyak sin mukul sac, ac sou lun papa tumun mukul sac ac tia enenu in moli mwe takma lalos.”
26 UDavida wasekhuluma emadodeni ayemi laye esithi: Kuzakwenziwani endodeni ebulala lumFilisti, isuse ihlazo koIsrayeli? Ngoba ungubani lumFilisti ongasokanga ukuthi aweyise amaviyo kaNkulunkulu ophilayo?
David el siyuk sin mwet ma tu siskal ah, “Mea ac orek nu sin mwet se su uniya mwet Philistia se ingo, ac tulala mwet Israel liki mwe mwekin se inge? Ac su win mwet Philistia pegan se ingan, ku elan orek tungak nu sin mwet mweun lun LEUM GOD moul?”
27 Abantu basebemphendula njengalelolizwi besithi: Kuzakwenziwa njalo endodeni embulalayo.
Na elos fahk nu sel David ma ac tufah orek nu sin mwet se ac unilya Goliath.
28 UEliyabi umnewabo omdala wezwa-ke lapho ekhuluma lamadoda; lentukuthelo kaEliyabi yavuthela uDavida, wathi: Wehleleleni lapha? Izimvu leziyana ezinlutshwana uzitshiye lobani egangeni? Mina ngiyakwazi ukuziqhenya kwakho lobubi benhliziyo yakho; ngoba wehlele ukubona impi.
Eliab, tamulel matu se wial David, el lohng sramsram lal David nu sin mwet inge, na el kasrkusrak sel ac fahk, “Mea kom tuku oru uh? Ac su muta liyaung sheep ekasr nutum oe yen mwesis ah? Kom ekak! Kom akna kom in intoein mweun uh, pa sis kom tuku an!”
29 Kodwa uDavida wathi: Sengenzeni? Bekungasilizwi nje yini?
Na David el fahk, “Ku mea nga oru? Ya nga kofla in kusen siyuk?”
30 Wasemfulathela, waya komunye, wakhuluma laye njengokwalelolizwi; abantu basebebuyisela impendulo kuye njengelizwi lakuqala.
David el forla nu sin sie pac mwet ac siyuk kusen siyuk sac pacna, ac pacl nukewa el ac siyuk ma sac, na top sefanna mwet uh ac topkol kac.
31 Lapho sebewezwile amazwi uDavida awakhulumayo, bawakhuluma phambi kukaSawuli; wasememukela.
Kutu mwet inge lohng ma David el tuh fahk, na elos som fahk nu sel Saul, ac Saul el sapla solal.
32 UDavida wasesithi kuSawuli: Kakungehluleki inhliziyo yomuntu ngenxa yakhe; inceku yakho izahamba iyekulwa lalowomFilisti.
Na David el fahk nu sel Saul, “O Tokosra, wangin sripa mwet uh in sangeng sin mwet Philistia se inge! Nga fah som anwuk nu sel.”
33 Kodwa uSawuli wathi kuDavida: Ungeke waya kulumFilisti ukulwa laye; ngoba wena ungumfana, yena-ke uyindoda yempi kusukela ebutsheni bakhe.
Ac Saul el fahk, “Ku kom ac lainul fuka? Kom srakna tulik, a funu el, el nuna mwet mweun se in moul lal nufon!”
34 Kodwa uDavida wathi kuSawuli: Inceku yakho yayiselusa izimvu zikayise; lapho kwafika isilwane lebhere, kwathatha imvu emhlanjini,
Ac David el fahk, “O Tokosra, nga pa liyaung sheep nutin papa tumuk. Pacl nukewa lion soko ku bear soko fin tuku sruokya sheep fusr soko ac usla liki un sheep uh,
35 ngaphuma ngakulandela, ngakutshaya, ngayikhulula emlonyeni wakho; lapho kungivukela, ngakubamba ngendevu, ngakutshaya, ngakubulala.
nga ac ukwal ac onel, ac molela sheep uh liki inwalul. Na lion soko ku bear soko fin forma nu sik, nga sruokya inkwawal ac puokol nwe ke el misa.
36 Inceku yakho yabulala kokubili isilwane lebhere; lalo umFilisti ongasokanga uzakuba njengokunye kwakho, lokhu eyise amaviyo kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.
Nga uniya lion ac bear tari, ac nga ac oru oapana nu sin mwet Philistia pegan se inge, su tuku funmwet nu sin mwet mweun lun God moul.
37 UDavida wathi futhi: INkosi eyangophula kuzipho lwesilwane lakuzipho lwebhere, yona izangophula esandleni salo umFilisti. USawuli wasesithi kuDavida: Hamba, leNkosi kayibe lawe.
LEUM GOD El moliyula liki lion ac bear, ac El ac fah moliyula liki mwet Philistia se pac inge. Na Saul el fahk, “Wona. Fahsrot, ac LEUM GOD Elan wi kom.”
38 USawuli wasegqokisa uDavida izigqoko zakhe, wafaka ikhowa lethusi ekhanda lakhe, wamgqokisa ibhatshi lensimbi.
Saul el sang mwe loeyuk lal sifacna nu sel David elan nokomang: mwe susu osra se el sang nu fin sifal David, oayapa nuknuk osra se.
39 UDavida wasebhinca inkemba yakhe phezu kwezigqoko zakhe, walinga ukuhamba, ngoba wayengakuzamanga. UDavida wasesithi kuSawuli: Kangilakho ukuhamba ngilalezizinto ngoba kangizizamanga. UDavida wasezikhumula kuye.
David el kapriya cutlass natul Saul nu ke nuknuk osra sac, ac el srike in fahsr tuh el tia ku, mweyen el supah kac. Na el fahk nu sel Saul, “Nga tia ku in mweun ke ma inge oan keik uh. Nga supah kac.” Na el sarukla nufon.
40 Wasethatha umqwayi wakhe esandleni sakhe, wazikhethela amatshe amahlanu abutshelezi esifuleni, wawafaka esikhwameni sikamelusi ayelaso, ngitsho emxhakeni, lesavutha sakhe sasisesandleni sakhe, wasesondela kumFilisti.
El srukak sikal soko natul, ac el sulela eot fwel limekosr infacl ah, ac isongya nu in pak lal ah. El akola fuht natul ah inpaol, na el som in sonol Goliath.
41 UmFilisti wasehamba waya wasondela kuDavida; lomuntu ophethe isihlangu esikhulu wayephambi kwakhe.
Mwet Philistia sac mutawauk in fahsr nu yorol David, ac mwet us mwe loang natul ah fahsr meet lukel. Ke fototoeni inmasrloltal
42 Kwathi umFilisti ekhangela ebona uDavida, wameyisa; ngoba wayengumfana njalo ebomvana elobuso obubukekayo.
Goliath el ngetla liyal David, ac el israsrinkusrael mweyen David el tulik na kulang ac kato se.
43 UmFilisti wasesithi kuDavida: Ngiyinja yini ukuthi wena uze kimi ulezinduku? UmFilisti wasemqalekisa uDavida ngabonkulunkulu bakhe.
Ac Goliath el fahk nu sel David, “Mwe mea sak soko an? Kom nunku mu kosro ngalngul soko pa nga?” Na el pang nu sin god lal tuh elan selngawel David.
44 UmFilisti wasesithi kuDavida: Woza kimi, ngizanika inyoni zamazulu lenyamazana zeganga inyama yakho.
Goliath el kusen mukul nu sel David ac fahk, “Fahsru na, ac nga fah sang monum tuh won yen engyeng uh ac kosro lemnak in kang.”
45 UDavida wasesithi kumFilisti: Wena uza kimi ulenkemba, lomkhonto, lomdikadika; kodwa mina ngiza kuwe ngebizo leNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu wamaviyo akoIsrayeli omeyisileyo.
Ac David el fahk, “Kom tuku lainyu ke cutlass ac osra ac mwe fakfuk, a nga tuku lain kom ke Inen LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun un mwet mweun lun Israel, su kom orek funmwet nu se.
46 Lamuhla iNkosi izakuvalela esandleni sami, ngizakutshaya, ngisuse ikhanda lakho kuwe; nginike lamuhla inyoni zamazulu lenyamazana zomhlaba izidumbu zebutho lamaFilisti, ukuze umhlaba wonke wazi ukuthi kukhona uNkulunkulu koIsrayeli.
Misenge LEUM GOD El ac fah eiskomme nu inpouk, ac nga fah unikomi ac pakela sifom. Nga fah sang monin mwet mweun lun mwet Philistia tuh won yen engyengu ac kosro lemnak in kang. Na faclu nufon fah etu tuh oasr sie God in Israel.
47 Lalelibandla lonke lizakwazi ukuthi iNkosi kayisindisi ngenkemba langomkhonto; ngoba impi ngeyeNkosi, njalo izalinikela esandleni sethu.
Ac mwet nukewa inge fah liye lah LEUM GOD El tia enenu cutlass ku osra in molela mwet lal. Kutangla se inge ma na lal, ac El ac fah filikowosme nu inpaosr.”
48 Kwasekusithi lapho umFilisti esukuma ehamba esondela ukuhlangabeza uDavida, uDavida wasephangisa wagijimela ngaseviyweni ukuhlangana lomFilisti.
Goliath el mutawauk in sifil fahsr nu yorol David, ac David el kasrusr nu ke lain in mweun lun mwet Philistia tuh elan lainul.
49 UDavida wasefaka isandla sakhe esikhwameni, wakhupha khona ilitshe, walijikijela, wamtshaya umFilisti ebunzini lakhe ilitshe laze latshona ebunzini lakhe, wawela emhlabathini ngobuso bakhe.
David el isongya paol nu in pak lal ah, olak sie eot loac ah, furokang nu kacl Goliath. Eot sac sunna motonsrol twe fukulya ahlunsifal Goliath, na el ikori oankiyuki infohk ah.
50 Ngalokho uDavida wamehlula umFilisti ngesavutha langelitshe, wamtshaya umFilisti, wambulala; kodwa kwakungelankemba esandleni sikaDavida.
Ouinge wangin cutlass inpaol David a el kutangulla Goliath ac unilya ke fuht se ac eot srisrik se!
51 Ngakho uDavida wagijima wema phezu komFilisti, wathatha inkemba yakhe, wayihwatsha esikhwameni sayo, wambulala, waquma ikhanda lakhe ngayo. Lapho amaFilisti ebona ukuthi iqhawe lawo selifile, abaleka.
David el yuyang nu yorol Goliath ac fanyak tu facl. El eisla cutlass natul Goliath liki mwe neinyuk la ah, ac sang pakela sifal ac unilya. Ke mwet Philistia elos liye lah mwet se elos finsrak kac el misa, elos kaing.
52 Lamadoda akoIsrayeli lawakoJuda asukuma amemeza, axotshana lamaFilisti uze uyefika esigodini lemasangweni eEkhironi. Labalimeleyo bamaFilisti bawela endleleni yeShaharayimi kuze kube seGathi njalo kuze kube seEkhironi.
Mwet Israel ac Judah elos sasa ac ukwe mwet Philistia nwe ke elos sun acn Gath ac mutunpot in Ekron. Mwet Philistia elos ikor ac kinetneta inkanek ma fahla nu Shaaraim, nwe ke sun acn Gath ac Ekron.
53 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebephenduka ekuxotshaneni ngamandla lamaFilisti, baphanga inkamba zawo.
Ke mwet Israel elos folok ke ukok lalos, elos tui ke nien aktuktuk lun mwet Philistia, ac eisani ma wap nukewa we.
54 UDavida wasethatha ikhanda lomFilisti, waliletha eJerusalema; kodwa wabeka izikhali zakhe ethenteni lakhe.
David el usla sifal Goliath nu Jerusalem, a el sruokya mwe mweun natul Goliath in lohm nuknuk sel sifacna.
55 Lapho uSawuli ebona uDavida ephuma ukuyahlangabeza umFilisti, wathi kuAbhineri induna yebutho: Uyindodana kabani lumfana Abhineri? UAbhineri wasesithi: Kuphila komphefumulo wakho, nkosi, kangazi.
Ke Saul el liyal David ke el fahla in mweunel Goliath, el siyuk sel Abner, captain lun un mwet mweun lal, ac fahk, “Abner, nutin su tulik se ingan?” Abner el fahk, “O Tokosra, nga tiana etu.”
56 Inkosi yasisithi: Buza wena ukuthi liyindodana kabani lelijaha.
Na Saul el fahk, “Fahla siyuk lah nutin su.”
57 Lapho uDavida esephendukile ekubulaleni umFilisti, uAbhineri wamthatha, wamusa phambi kukaSawuli elekhanda lomFilisti esandleni sakhe.
Ke David el folok nu ke nien aktuktuk uh tukun el unilya Goliath, Abner el usalla nu yorol Saul. David el srakna us sifal Goliath.
58 USawuli wasesithi kuye: Uyindodana kabani, jaha? UDavida wasesithi: Ngiyindodana yenceku yakho uJese umBhethelehema.
Saul el siyuk sel David, “Mwet fusr, nutin su kom an?” David el topuk, “Nga ma nutin mwet kulansap lom, Jesse, mwet Bethlehem se.”
