1 Samweli 19
1 Sauli akamwambia mwanawe Yonathani na watumishi wake wote wamuue Daudi. Lakini Yonathani mwana wa Sauli alimpenda sana Daudi.
Forsothe Saul spak to Jonathas, his sone, and to alle hise seruauntis, that thei schulden sle Dauid; certis Jonathas, the sone of Saul, louyde Dauid greetli.
2 Yonathani akamwonya Daudi, akisema, “Baba yangu Sauli anatafuta nafasi ya kukuua. Ujilinde kesho asubuhi, nenda mahali pa siri na ukae huko.
And Jonathas schewide to Dauid, and seide, Saul, my fadir, sekith to sle thee, wherfor, Y biseche, kepe `thou thee eerli; and thou schalt dwelle priueli, and thou schalt be hid.
3 Nitatoka na kukaa na baba yangu shambani mahali uliko. Nitazungumza naye juu yako, nami nitakueleza nitakachogundua.”
Sotheli Y schal go out, and stonde bisidis my fadir in the feeld, where euer he schal be; and Y schal speke of thee to my fadir, and what euer thing Y shal se, Y schal telle to thee.
4 Yonathani akanena mema juu ya Daudi kwa Sauli baba yake na kumwambia, “Mfalme asitende mabaya kwa mtumishi wake Daudi; hajakukosea, aliyoyafanya yamekuwa ya faida sana kwako.
Therfor Jonathas spak good thingis of Dauid to Saul, his fadir, and seide to hym, Kyng, do thou not synne ayens thi seruaunt Dauid, for he `synnede not to thee, and hise werkis ben ful good to thee;
5 Alihatarisha maisha yake alipomuua yule Mfilisti. Bwana akajipatia ushindi mkubwa kwa ajili ya Israeli wote, nawe uliuona na ukafurahi. Kwa nini basi utende mabaya kwa mtu asiye na hatia kama Daudi kwa kumuua bila sababu?”
and he puttide his lijf in his hond, and he killide the Filistei. And the Lord made greet heelthe to al Israel; thou siy, and were glad; whi therfor synnest thou in giltles blood, and sleest Dauid, which is with out gilt?
6 Sauli akamsikiliza Yonathani na kuapa hivi: “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, Daudi hatauawa.”
And whanne Saul hadde herd this, he was plesid with the vois of Jonathas, and swoor, `The Lord lyueth, `that is, bi the Lord lyuynge, for Dauid schal not be slayn.
7 Basi Yonathani akamwita Daudi na kumweleza mazungumzo yote. Akamleta kwa Sauli, naye Daudi akawa pamoja na Sauli kama kwanza.
Therfor Jonathas clepide Dauid, and schewide to hym alle these wordis. And Jonathas brouyte in Dauid to Saul, and he was bifor hym as `yistirdai and the thridde dai ago.
8 Vita vilitokea tena, naye Daudi akatoka na kupigana na Wafilisti. Akawapiga kwa nguvu nyingi hata wakakimbia mbele yake.
Forsothe batel was moued eft; and Dauyd yede out, and fauyt ayens Filisteis, and he smoot hem with a greet wounde, and thei fledden fro his face.
9 Lakini roho mbaya iliyoachiwa nafasi na Bwana ikaja juu ya Sauli alipokuwa ameketi katika nyumba yake akiwa na mkuki mkononi mwake. Daudi alipokuwa anampigia kinubi,
And the yuel spirit of the Lord was maad on Saul; sotheli he sat in his hows, and helde a spere; certis Dauid harpide in his hond.
10 Sauli akajaribu kumchomea Daudi ukutani kwa huo mkuki wake, lakini Daudi akauhepa huo mkuki wa Sauli ukakita ukutani. Usiku ule ule Daudi akakimbia na kuokoka.
And Saul enforside to prene with the spere Dauid in the wal; and Dauid bowide fro `the face of Saul; forsothe the spere `with voide wounde was borun in to the wal; and Dauid fledde, and was saued in that niyt.
11 Sauli akatuma watu nyumbani mwa Daudi wailinde hiyo nyumba na kumuua asubuhi. Lakini Mikali, mkewe Daudi, akamwonya akisema, “Kama hukukimbia kuokoa maisha yako usiku huu, kesho yake utauawa.”
Therfor Saul sente hise knyytis in the nyyt in to the hows of Dauid, that thei schulden kepe hym, and that he `schulde be slayn in the morewtide. And whanne Mychol, the wijf of Dauid, hadde teld this to Dauid, and seide, If thou sauest not thee in this nyyt, thou schalt die to morew;
12 Basi Mikali akamteremsha Daudi kupitia dirishani, naye akakimbia na kuokoka.
sche puttide hym doun bi a wyndow. Forsothe he yede, and fledde, and was sauyd.
13 Kisha Mikali akachukua kinyago, akakilaza kitandani, akakifunika kwa vazi na kukiwekea singa za mbuzi kichwani.
Sotheli Mychol took an ymage, and puttide it on the bed, and puttide `an heeri skyn of geet at the heed therof, and hilide it with clothis.
14 Sauli alipotuma watu kumkamata Daudi, Mikali akasema, “Yeye ni mgonjwa.”
Forsothe Saul sente sergeauntis, `that schulden rauysche Dauid, and it was answeride, that he was sijk.
15 Kisha Sauli akatuma watu tena kumwona Daudi naye akawaambia, “Mleteni kwangu juu ya kitanda chake ili nipate kumuua.”
And eft Saul sente messangeris, that thei schulden se Dauid, and he seide, Brynge ye hym to me in the bed, that he be slayn.
16 Lakini wale watu walipoingia, kumbe ni kinyago tu kilichokuwa kitandani na kwenye kichwa kulikuwepo na singa za mbuzi.
And whanne the messangeris hadden come, `a symylacre was foundun on the bed, and `skynnes of geet at the heed therof.
17 Sauli akamwambia Mikali, “Kwa nini umenidanganya mimi hivi na kumwacha adui yangu aende zake ili apate kuokoka?” Mikali akamwambia, “Yeye aliniambia, ‘Niache niende zangu. Kwa nini nikuue?’”
And Saul seide to Mychol, Whi scornedist thou me so, and `delyueredist myn enemy, that he fledde? And Mychol answeride to Saul, For he spak to me, and seide, Delyuere thou me, ellis Y schal slee thee.
18 Daudi alipokuwa amekimbia na kuokoka, alimwendea Samweli huko Rama na kumwambia yale yote Sauli alimfanyia. Ndipo Daudi na Samweli wakaenda Nayothi kukaa huko.
Forsothe Dauid fledde, and was sauyd; and he cam to Samuel in to Ramatha, and telde to hym alle thingis which Saul hadde do to hym; and he and Samuel yeden, and dwelliden in Naioth.
19 Habari zikamfikia Sauli kusema: “Daudi yuko Nayothi huko Rama.”
Forsothe it was teld to Saul of men, seiynge, Lo! Dauid is in Naioth in Ramatha.
20 Basi Sauli akatuma watu kumkamata Daudi, lakini walipoona kundi la manabii wakitoa unabii, wakiwa pamoja na Samweli akiwa amesimama hapo kama kiongozi wao, Roho wa Mungu akaja juu ya watu wa Sauli, nao pia wakatoa unabii.
Therfor Saul sente sleeris, that thei schulden rauysche Dauid; and whanne thei hadden seyn the cumpeny of profetis profeciynge, and Samuel stondynge ouer hem, the Spirit of the Lord, `that is, the spirit of deuocioun, was maad in hem, and thei also bigunnen to prophecie.
21 Sauli akaelezwa juu ya hilo, naye akapeleka watu wengine zaidi, nao wakatoa unabii pia. Sauli akatuma watu mara ya tatu, nao pia wakatoa unabii.
And whanne this was teld to Saul, he sente also othere messangeris; `sotheli and thei profesieden. And eft Saul sente the thridde messangeris, and thei prophecieden. And Saul was wrooth `with irefulnesse;
22 Mwishowe, yeye mwenyewe akaondoka kwenda Rama na kwenda hadi kwenye kile kisima kikubwa kilichoko huko Seku. Naye akauliza, “Wako wapi Samweli na Daudi?” Wakasema, “Wako Nayothi huko Rama.”
and he also yede in to Ramatha, and he cam `til to the greet cisterne, which is in Socoth, and he axide, and seide, In what place ben Samuel and Dauid? And it was seid to hym, Lo! thei ben in Naioth in Ramatha.
23 Hivyo Sauli akaenda Nayothi huko Rama. Lakini Roho wa Mungu akaja juu yake hata yeye, akawa anatembea huku anatoa unabii hadi akafika Nayothi.
And he yede in `to Naioth in Ramatha; and the Spirit of the Lord was maad also on him; and he `yede, and entride, and propheciede, `til the while he cam `in to Naioth in Ramatha.
24 Akavua majoho yake na pia akatoa unabii mbele ya Samweli. Akalala hali hiyo ule mchana kutwa na usiku kucha. Hii ndiyo sababu watu husema, “Je, Sauli pia yumo miongoni mwa manabii?”
And `he also dispuylide him silf of hise clothis, and propheciede with othere men bifor Samuel, and he profeciede nakid in al that dai and nyyt. Wherfor `a prouerbe, that is, a comyn word, yede out, Whether and Saul among prophetis?
