1 Sauli akamwambia Yonathani mwanawe na watumishi wake wote kwamba wanapaswa kumuua Daudi. Lakini Yonathani, mwana wa Sauli, alitamani sana akae na Daudi.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Saula kia Sonatane ko hono foha, pea ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, koeʻuhi kenau tāmateʻi ʻa Tevita.
2 Hivyo Yonathani akamwambia Daudi, “Baba yangu Sauli anatafuta kukuua. Kwa hiyo uwe macho wakati wa asubuhi na jifiche mahali pa siri.
Ka naʻe loto lelei lahi ʻa Sonatane ko e foha ʻo Saula kia Tevita: pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Sonatane kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku fai ʻe Saula ko ʻeku tamai ke ne tāmateʻi koe: pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke vakai kiate koe ke ʻoua ke pongipongi, pea nofo ʻi ha potu lilo, ʻo toitoiʻi koe:
3 Nami nitatoka nje na kusimama kando ya baba yangu huko shambani uliko wewe, na nitazungumza na baba yangu kuhusu wewe. Kama nikijua jambo lolote nitakuambia.”
Pea te u ʻalu ʻo tuʻu ofi ki heʻeku tamai ʻi he ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻi ai, pea te ma alea mo ʻeku tamai kiate koe; pea ko ia teu mamata ki ai, teu tala kiate koe.
4 Yonathani alimsifia Daudi mbele ya Sauli baba yake akisema, “Mfalme asije akafanya dhambi dhidi ya mtumishi wake Daudi. Maana yeye hajakutenda dhambi, mambo aliyofanya yamekusaidia sana.
Pea naʻe lea lelei ʻa Sonatane ki heʻene tamai ko Saula kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke ʻoua naʻa fai ha kovi ʻe he tuʻi ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita; koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai te ne fai angahala kiate koe pea koeʻuhi ko ʻene ngaahi ngāue kuo lelei ʻaupito kiate koe:
5 Maana alijitoa maisha yake na kumuua yule Mfilisti, naye BWANA akawaletea Waisraeli wote wokovu mkuu. Tena uliuona na kufurahi. Kwa nini utende dhambi juu damu isiyo na hatia kwa kumuua Daudi bila sababu?”
He naʻa ne ʻai ʻene moʻui ki hono nima, pea ne tāmateʻi ʻae tangata Filisitia, pea naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui lahi maʻa ʻIsileli: naʻa ke vakaiʻi ia: pea ne ke fiefia ai: pea ko e hā ai te ke fai angahala ai ki he toto angatonu, ke tāmateʻi ʻa Tevita taʻehanotuʻunga?”
6 Sauli alimsikiliza Yonathani. Sauli akaapa, “Kama BWANA aishivyo, Yonathani hatauawa.”
Pea naʻe tokanga ʻa Saula ki he leʻo ʻo Sonatane: pea fuakava ʻa Saula, ʻI he moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ia.
7 Ndipo Yonathani akamwita Daudi na kumwambia mambo hayo yote. Na Yonathani akamleta Daudi kwa Sauli, naye Daudi akawa mbele zake kama zamani.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sonatane ʻa Tevita, pea fakahā ʻe Sonatane kiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni. Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Sonatane ʻa Tevita kia Saula, pea naʻe ʻi hono ʻao ia ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻi ai ʻi muʻa.
8 Baadaye kukawa na vita tena. Daudi akatoka na kupigana na Wafilisti na kuwashinda kwa mauaji makubwa mno. Nao wakakimbia mbele yake.
Pea naʻe toe hoko ʻae tau: pea ʻalu ai ʻa Tevita ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai Filisitia, pea ne taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he tāmateʻi lahi; pea naʻa nau hola meiate ia.
9 Yule roho wa ubaya kutoka kwa BWANA ikamjia Sauli alipokuwa ameketi nyumbani mwake na mkuki mkononi mwake, na Daudi akiwa anapiga chombo chake.
Pea naʻe ʻia Saula ʻae laumālie kovi meia Sihova, ʻi heʻene nofo ʻi hono fale mo e tao ʻi hono nima: pea naʻe tā [ʻene meʻa ]ʻe Tevita ʻaki hono nima.
10 Sauli alijaribu kumpigilia Daudi ukutani kwa mkuki wake, lakini akaponyoka kutoka machoni pake, na kwamba Sauli akashindilia mkuki ndani ya ukuta. Daudi alikimbia na kutoroka usiku huo.
Pea naʻe feinga ʻa Saula ke ne veloʻi ʻa Tevita ki he holisi ʻaki ʻae tao; ka naʻe kalo mālie ʻa Tevita, pea velo ʻo tau ʻae tao ki he holisi: pea naʻe hola ʻa Tevita ʻo hao mei hono ʻao ʻi he pō ko ia.
11 Bado Sauli aliwatuma wajumbe nyumbani kwa Daudi wamvizie kusudi aweze kumuua asubuhi. Mkewe Daudi, Mikali, akamwambia, “Usipoyaokoa maisha yako usiku huu, kesho utauwawa.”
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata fekau ki he fale ʻo Tevita, ke lamasi ia, pea kenau tāmateʻi ia ʻi he pongipongi: pea naʻe tala ʻe Mikale ko e uaifi ʻo Tevita kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke fakahaofi hoʻo moʻui he poōni, ʻe tāmateʻi koe ʻapongipongi.”
12 Hivyo Mikali akamteremsha Daudi kupita dirishani. Naye akaenda, akakimbia na kutoroka.
Ko ia naʻe tukutuku hifo ai ʻe Mikale ʻa Tevita mei he matapā sioʻata: pea naʻe ʻalu ia, pea hola ʻo hao.
13 Mikali alichukua kinyago na kukilaza juu ya kitanda. Kisha akaweka mto wa singa za mbuzi kichwani pake, na akakifunika na nguo.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Mikale ʻae meʻa fakatātā ʻo tuku ia ki he mohenga, pea ne ʻai ʻae ʻolunga ko e fulufuluʻi kosi ke ʻolunga ʻaki, ʻo ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae kafu.
14 Sauli alipowatuma wajumbe kumchukua Daudi, mkewe akasema, “Daudi ni mgonjwa.”
Pea ʻi he fekau ʻa Saula ʻae kau talafekau ke puke ʻa Tevita, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ʻOku mahaki ia.
15 Kisha Sauli akawatuma wajumbe kumtazama; akisema, “Mleteni kwangu akiwa kitandani, ili nimuue.”
Pea naʻe toe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau talafekau kenau mamata kia Tevita, ʻo pehē, “Mou ʻomi ia kiate au ʻi hono mohenga, koeʻuhi ke u tāmateʻi ia.”
16 Wale wajumbe walipoingia ndani, tazama, kile kinyago kilikuwa kitandani pamoja na mto wa singa za mbuzi kichwani.
Pea ʻi he hū ki loto ʻae kau tangata talafekau, vakai, naʻe ʻi he mohenga ʻae meʻa fakatātā mo e ʻolunga kuo ngaohi ʻaki ʻae fulufuluʻi kosi.
17 Sauli akamuuliza Mikali, “Kwa nini umenidanganya na kumwachilia adui yangu aende, na tena ametoroka?” Mikali akamjibu Sauli, “Aliniambia, 'Acha niende. Kwa nini nikuuwe?”'
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Saula kia Mikale, “Ko e hā kuo ke kākā pehē ai au, mo ke fekau ki hoku fili ke ʻalu, pea kuo ne hao?” Pea pehē ʻe Mikale kia Saula, naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, Tuku ke u ʻalu; he ko e hā te u tāmateʻi ai koe?”
18 Basi Daudi akakimbia na kutoroka, na akaenda kwa Samweli huko Rama na kumweleza yote ambayo Sauli amemtendea. Ndipo yeye na Samweli wakaenda na kukaa Nayothi.
Ko ia naʻe hola pea hao ʻa Tevita, ʻo ne ʻalu kia Samuela ki Lama, ʻo ne tala kiate ia ʻaia kotoa pē kuo fai ʻe Saula kiate ia. Pea naʻa na ō mo Samuela ʻo nofo ʻi Naoti.
19 Naye Sauli akaambiwa kwamba, “Tazama, Daudi yuko huko Nayothi iliyoko Rama.”
Pea naʻe tala kia Saula, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻoku ʻi Naoti ʻa Tevita ʻi Lama.
20 Kisha Sauli akawatuma wajumbe kumkamata Daudi. Nao walipowaona kundi la manabii wakitabiri, na Samweli akisimama kama kiongozi wao, Roho wa Mungu akawaingia wale wajumbe wa Sauli, nao pia wakatabiri.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata ke puke ʻa Tevita: pea ʻi heʻenau mamata ki he kau palōfita ʻoku malanga, kae tuʻu ʻa Samuela ʻaia ko honau tauhi, naʻe hoko ʻae laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ki he kau tangata fekau ʻa Saula, pea malanga foki mo kinautolu.
21 Sauli alipoambiwa hivyo, akawatuma wajumbe wengine, nao pia wakatabiri. Basi Sauli aliwatuma tena wajumbe kwa mara ya tatu, na hao pia wakatabiri.
Pea ʻi he fakahā ia kia Saula, naʻa ne fekau atu ʻae kau tangata kehe, pea naʻe malanga ʻakinautolu foki. Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Saula ʻae kau tangata fekau ho hono liunga tolu, pea naʻa nau malanga foki.
22 Kisha naye akaenda Rama na kufika katika kisima kirefu kilichoko huko Seku. Akauliza, “Samweli na Daudi wako wapi?” Mtu mmoja akasema, “Angalia, Wako Nayothi huko Rama.”
Pea naʻe toki ʻalu ia foki ki Lama pea hoko atu ki he fuʻu luo vai ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Sikiu: pea naʻe fehuʻi ʻe ia ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻi fē ʻa Samuela mo Tevita?” Pea pehē ʻe he tokotaha, Vakai, ʻoku na ʻi Naoti ʻi Lama.
23 Hivyo Sauli akaenda Nayothi huko Rama. Ndipo Roho wa Mungu pia akaja juu yake, naye alipokuwa akienda alitabiri, hadi alipofika Nayothi huko Rama.
Pea ne ʻalu ki ai ki Naoti ʻi Lama: pea hoko kiate ia foki ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻe ʻalu pe ia, ʻo malanga, ʻo feʻunga mo ʻene hoko ki Naoti ʻi Lama.
24 Na yeye pia, alirarua mavazi yake, naye pia akatabiri mbele ya Samweli siku hiyo akilala uchi mchana kutwa na usiku kucha. Kwa sababu ya jambo hili, watu husema, “Je, Sauli pia ni miongoni mwa manabii?”
Pea naʻa ne toʻo foki hono ngaahi kofu, ʻo malanga pehē pē ʻi he ʻao ʻo Samuela, pea naʻe tokoto hifo taʻekofu ia ʻi he ʻaho kotoa ko ia mo e pō kotoa ko ia. Ko e tupunga ia ʻoe pehē, “He kuo kau ʻa Saula foki mo e kau palōfita?”
