< 1 Samuels 27 >
1 Men David sagde med seg sjølv: «Ein dag stupar eg for Sauls hand. Eg veit ingen annan utveg enn å røma til Filistarlandet; då lyt Saul slutta å leita etter meg innanfor Israelslandskilet; og so bergar eg meg undan honom.»
And he said David to heart his now I will be swept away a day one by [the] hand of Saul not [belongs] to me good for really I will escape - to [the] land of [the] Philistines and he will desist from me Saul to seek me again in all [the] territory of Israel and I will be delivered from hand his.
2 So braut David upp og drog med dei seks hundrad kararne sine yver til Akis Maoksson, kongen i Gat.
And he arose David and he passed over he and six hundred man who [were] with him to Achish [the] son of Maoch [the] king of Gath.
3 Og David heldt seg hjå Akis i Gat, han og kararne hans, alle med huslyden sin, David med dei tvo konorne sine; Ahinoam frå Jizre’el og Abiga’il, kona hans Nabal frå Karmel.
And he dwelt David with Achish in Gath he and men his each one and household his David and [the] two wives his Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite [woman].
4 Då Saul frette at David hadde rømt til Gat, leita han ikkje meir etter honom.
And it was told to Saul that he had fled David Gath and not (he repeated *Q(K)*) again to seek him.
5 David sagde til Akis: «Hev du aldri so liten godvilje for meg, so lat meg få bu i ein av landsbyarne, so eg kann halda meg der. Kvifor skulde tenaren din bu i hovudstaden hjå deg?»
And he said David to Achish if please I have found favor in view your let people give to me a place in one of [the] cities of the field so I may dwell there and why? will he dwell servant your in [the] city of royalty with you.
6 Akis gav honom Siklag same dagen. Difor høyrer Siklag den dag i dag til Juda-kongarne.
And he gave to him Achish on the day that Ziklag therefore it has belonged Ziklag to [the] kings of Judah until the day this.
7 Den tid David budde i Filistarlandet, var i alt eitt år og fire månader.
And it was [the] number of the days which he dwelt David in [the] region of [the] Philistines days and four months.
8 David tok ut med kararne sine og gjorde herjeferder hjå gesuritarne, girzitarne og amalekitarne. For desse folkeætterne budde der i landet frå gamalt, burtimot Sur og heilt til Egyptarland.
And he went up David and men his and they made raids against the Geshurite[s] (and the Gizrite[s] *Q(K)*) and the Amalekite[s] for they [were] dwelling the land which [is] from antiquity coming you Shur towards and to [the] land of Egypt.
9 Og når David herja i landet, sparde han korkje kar eller kvende; han tok bufe og smale og asen og kamelar og klæde. Og dermed snudde han attende til Akis.
And he struck David the land and not he let live a man and a woman and he took sheep and cattle and donkeys and camels and clothes and he returned and he went to Achish.
10 Når då Akis spurde: «I dag hev de vel ikkje gjort nokor herjeferd?» so svara David: «Jau, sør i Judalandet, » eller: «Sør i Jerahme’eitlandet», eller: «Sør i Kenitarlandet.»
And he said Achish against [where] did you make a raid this day and he said David on [the] Negev of Judah and on [the] Negev of the Jerahmeelite[s] and against [the] Negev of the Kenite[s].
11 Ingi livande sjæl sparde David, so dei kunde koma til Gat. For han tenkte: «Dei kunde slarva um oss og segja: «Det og det hev David gjort; soleis hev han fare åt heile tidi han budde i Filistarlandet.»»
And a man and a woman not he let live David to bring Gath saying lest they should tell on us saying thus he has done David and [is] thus practice his all the days which he has dwelt in [the] region of [the] Philistines.
12 Men Akis trudde David, og tenkte: «Han hev fenge uord på seg hjå Israel, folket sitt, og no vil han tena meg alle dager.»
And he trusted Achish in David saying certainly he has become odious among people his among Israel and he will become of me a servant of perpetuity.
