1 Samweli 21
1 Kisha Daudi akafika Nobu kumuona Ahimeleki kuhani. Ahimeleki akaja akutane na Daudi huku akitetemeka na kumwambia, “Kwa nini uko peke yako huna mtu wa kuambatana na wewe?”
Forsothe Dauid cam in to Nobe to Achimelech preest; and Achymelech wondrid, for Dauid `hadde come; and he seide to Dauid, Whi art thou aloone, and no man is with thee?
2 Daudi akamjibu Ahimeleki kuhani, “Mfalme amenituma kwa jambo maalum na ameniambia hivi, 'Asiwepo hata mtu mmoja anayejua chochote kuhusu shughuli niliyokutuma, na kile nilichokuagiza.' Nimewaelekeza vijana kwenda sehemu fulani.
And Dauid seide to Achymelech preest, The kyng comaundide to me a word, and seide, No man wite the thing, for which thou art sent fro me, and what maner comaundementis Y yaf to thee; for Y seide also to children, that thei schulden go in to that `and that place;
3 Sasa basi chakula gani kinapatikana hapa? Nipatie mikate mitano, au chochote kilichopo hapa.”
now therfor if thou hast ony thing at hond, ether fyue looues, yyue thou to me, ether what euer thing thou fyndist.
4 Huyo Kuhani alimjibu Daudi na kusema, “Hakuna mkate wa kawaida mkononi, lakini ipo mikate takatifu- kama vijana hawajatembea na wanawake.”
And the preest answeride to Dauid, and seide to hym, Y haue `not lewid, `that is, comyn, looues at hoond, but oneli hooli breed; whether the children ben clene, and moost of wymmen?
5 Daudi akamjibu kuhani, “Hakika hatujatembea na wanawake kwa siku hizi tatu. Nilipoanza safari, miili ya vijana iliwekwa wakfu kwa BWANA, ingawa ilikuwa safari ya kawaida. Je, si zaidi sana leo miili yao ikawekwa wakfu kwa BWANA.”
And Dauid answeride to the preest, and seide to hym, And sotheli if it is doon of wymmen, we absteyneden vs fro yistirdai and the thridde dai ago, whanne we yeden out, and the `vessels, that is, bodies, of the children weren cleene; forsothe this weie is defoulyd, but also that schal be halewid to dai in the vessels.
6 Hivyo kuhani akampa mikate iliyokuwa imewekwa wakfu kwa BWANA. Maana haikuwepo mikate mingine hapo, isipokuwa tu ile ya wonyesho, ambayo iliondolewa kutoka kwa BWANA, ili sehemu yake iwekwe mikate ya moto, inapokuwa imeondolewa.
Therfor the preest yaf to hym halewid breed, for noon other breed was there, no but oneli looues of settyng forth, that weren takun awey fro the face of the Lord, that hoote looues schulen be set.
7 Basi siku hiyo mmoja wa watumishi wa Sauli alikuwapo mahali hapo, ameshilkiliwa mbele za BWANA. Jina la mtu huyo aliitwa Doegi Mwedomu, mkuu wa wachungaji wa Sauli.
Forsothe sum man of the seruauntis of Saul was there with ynne in the tabernacle of the Lord; and his name was Doech of Ydumee, the myytiest of the scheepherdis, `that is, iugis, of Saul.
8 Daudi akamwambia Ahimeleki, “Je, hakuna hata mkuki wowote au upanga? Maana mimi sikubeba upanga wangu wala silaha zangu, maana ile shughuli ya mfalme ilikuwa ya muhimu.”
Forsothe Dauid seide to Achymelech, If thou hast `here at hond spere, ether swerd, yyue to me; for Y took not with me my swerd and myn armeris; for the `word of the kyng constreynede me.
9 Kuhani akasema, “Ule upanga wa Mfilisti Goliathi, uliyemuua katika bonde la Ela, uko hapa umefunikwa katika nguo nyuma ya naivera. kama unataka kuuchukua huo, uchukue, maana hakuna silaha nyingine hapa.” Daudi akasema, “Hakuna silaha nyingine kama hiyo, nipatie hiyo.”
And the preest seide, Lo! here the swerd of Goliath Filistei, whom thou killidst in the valey of Terebynte, is wlappid in a cloth aftir ephoth; if thou wolt take this, take thou; for here is noon other outakun that. And Dauid seide, Noon other is lijk this, yyue thou it to me.
10 Daudi aliamka na kukimbia mbali na Sauli na akaenda kwa Akishi, mfalme wa Gathi.
Therfor Dauid roos, `and fledde in that dai fro the face of Saul, and cam to Achis, the kyng of Geth.
11 Mtumishi wa Akishi akamwambia, “huyu siye Daudi mfalme wa nchi hii? Je, wanawake hawakupokezana wakiimba na kucheza, 'Sauli ameua maelfu yake, na Daudi makumi elfu yake?”'
And the seruauntis of Achis seiden to hym, whanne thei hadden seyn Dauid, Whether this is not Dauid, kyng of the lond? Whether thei sungen not to hym bi queeris, and seiden, Saul smoot a thousynde, and Dauid smoot ten thousynde?
12 Daudi akayaweka maneno hayo moyoni mwake na akamwogopa sana Akishi, mfalme wa Gathi.
Sotheli Dauid puttide these wordis `in his herte, and he dredde greetli of the face of Achis, kyng of Geth.
13 Daudi akabadili mwenendo wake mbele yao na akajifanya kuwa mwendawazimu machoni pao; akachora-chora alama kwenye vizingiti vya milango huku akitiririsha mate yake chini ya ndevu zake.
And Dauid chaungide his mouth bifor Achis, and felde doun bitwixe her hondis, and he hurtlide ayens the doris of the yate, and his drauelis, `that is, spotelis, flowiden doun in to the beerd.
14 Ndipo Akishi akawaambia watumishi wake, “Tazameni, mnaona mtu huyu ni mwehu.
And Achis seide to hise seruauntis, Seen ye the wood man? why brouyten ye hym to me?
15 Kwa nini mmemleta kwangu? Je, mimi nina haja na wehu, kumbe mmemleta mtu huyu ili anifanyie hayo mbele yangu? Hivi kweli huyu ataingia nyumbani mwangu?
whether wood men failen to vs? whi han ye brouyt in hym, that he schulde be wood, while Y am present? Delyuere ye hym fro hennus, lest he entre in to myn hows.
