< 1 Samuel 19 >
1 At nagsalita si Saul kay Jonathan na kaniyang anak, at sa lahat ng kaniyang mga lingkod, na kanilang patayin si David. Nguni't si Jonathan na anak ni Saul ay naliligayang mainam kay David.
Then spake Saul unto Jonathan his son, and unto all his servants, that they should put David to death;
2 At isinaysay ni Jonathan kay David, na sinasabi, Pinagsisikapan ni Saul na aking ama na patayin ka: ngayon nga'y isinasamo ko sa iyo, na magingat ka sa kinaumagahan, at manatili sa isang lihim na dako, at magtago ka:
but, Jonathan, Saul’s son, delighted in David, exceedingly, —so Jonathan told David, saying, Saul, my father, is seeking to put thee to death, —now, therefore, take heed to thyself I pray thee, in the morning, and abide thou in concealment, and hide thyself;
3 At ako'y lalabas at tatayo sa siping ng aking ama sa parang na iyong kinaroroonan, at ako'y makikipagusap sa aking ama ng tungkol sa iyo; at kung may makita akong anoman, ay aking sasaysayin sa iyo.
and, I, will come out and stand beside my father, in the field where, thou, art, and, I, will speak of thee unto my father, —and, if I see aught, I will tell thee.
4 At nagsalita si Jonathan kay Saul na kaniyang ama, ng mabuti tungkol kay David, at sinabi sa kaniya, Huwag magkasala ang hari laban sa kaniyang lingkod na si David; sapagka't hindi siya nagkasala laban sa iyo; at sapagka't ang kaniyang mga gawa ay naging mabuti sa iyo:
So then Jonathan spake of David things that were good, unto Saul his father, —and said unto him—May the king not sin against his servant—against David; for he hath not sinned against, thee, nay, indeed, his doings have been good to theeward exceedingly.
5 Sapagka't kaniyang ipinain ang kaniyang buhay, at sinaktan ang Filisteo, at gumawa ang Panginoon ng dakilang pagtatagumpay sa ganang buong Israel: nakita mo at nagalak ka; bakit nga magkakasala ka laban sa walang salang dugo, na papatayin si David ng walang anomang kadahilanan?
And, when he put his life in his hand, and smote the Philistine, and Yahweh wrought a great victory for all Israel, thou sawest, and didst rejoice. Wherefore, then, shouldst thou sin against innocent blood by putting David to death, without cause?
6 At dininig ni Saul ang tinig ni Jonathan; at sumumpa si Saul: Buhay ang Panginoon, siya'y hindi papatayin.
And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan, —and Saul sware, By the life of Yahweh, he shall not be put to death!
7 At tinawag ni Jonathan si David, at isinaysay ni Jonathan sa kaniya ang lahat ng mga bagay na yaon. At dinala ni Jonathan si David kay Saul, at siya'y lumagay sa kaniyang harap, na gaya ng dati.
And Jonathan called for David, and Jonathan told him all these things, —and Jonathan brought in David unto Saul, and so he was in his presence, as aforetime.
8 At nagkaroong muli ng digma: at lumabas si David, at nakipaglaban sa mga Filisteo, at pumatay sa kanila ng malaking pagpatay; at sila'y tumakas sa harap niya.
But, when the war again brake out, —and David went forth and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great smiting, and they fled before him,
9 At isang espiritung masama na mula sa Panginoon ay suma kay Saul, nang siya'y nakaupo sa kaniyang bahay na tangan niya ang kaniyang sibat sa kaniyang kamay; at tumugtog si David sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang kamay.
then came there a sad spirit of Yahweh unto Saul, he being in his house, seated, with his spear in his hand, —while, David, played with his hand,
10 At pinagsikapan ni Saul na tuhugin ng sibat si David sa dinding; nguni't siya'y nakatakas sa harap ni Saul at ang kaniyang tinuhog ng sibat ay ang dinding: at tumakas si David at tumanan ng gabing yaon.
Saul sought to smite David with the spear, even to the wall, but he slipped away from before Saul, who smote the spear into the wall, —whereas, David, fled and escaped, that night.
11 At nagsugo si Saul ng mga sugo sa bahay ni David, upang siya'y bantayan, at siya'y patayin sa kinaumagahan: at sinaysay sa kaniya ni Michal na asawa ni David, na sinasabi, Kundi mo iligtas ang iyong buhay ngayong gabi bukas ay papatayin ka.
And Saul sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to put him to death, in the morning! And Michal his wife told David, saying, If thou do not deliver thyself to-night, to-morrow, art thou to be put to death.
12 Kaya inihugos ni Michal si David sa isang dungawan, at siya'y yumaon, at tumakas, at tumanan.
So Michal let down David, through the window, and he departed and fled, and escaped.
13 At kinuha ni Michal ang mga terap, at inihiga sa higaan at nilagyan sa ulunan ng isang unan na buhok ng kambing, at tinakpan ng mga kumot.
And Michal took the household god, and put it in the bed, and, a fly-net of goat’s-hair, put she at its head, —and covered it with the clothes.
14 At nang magsugo si Saul ng mga sugo upang dakpin si David, kaniyang sinabi, Siya'y may sakit.
And, when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said—He is, sick.
15 At nagsugo si Saul ng mga sugo upang tingnan si David, na sinasabi, Ipanhik ninyo siya sa akin na nasa kaniyang higaan, upang aking patayin siya.
So Saul sent messengers to see David, saying, —Bring him up in the bed unto me, that I may put him to death.
16 At nang pumasok ang mga sugo, narito, ang mga terap at nasa higaan, pati ng unang buhok ng kambing sa ulunan niyaon.
And, when the messengers entered, lo! the household god in the bed, —with a fly-net of goat’s-hair at its head.
17 At sinabi ni Saul kay Michal, Bakit mo ako dinaya ng ganiyan, at iyong pinaalis ang aking kaaway, na anopa't siya'y nakatanan? At sumagot si Michal kay Saul, Kaniyang sinabi sa akin: Bayaan mo akong yumaon: bakit kita papatayin?
And Saul said unto Michal—Wherefore, in this way, hast thou deceived me, and let go mine enemy, that he hath escaped? Then said Michal unto Saul, He, himself, said unto me—Let me go, wherefore should I put thee to death?
18 Si David nga ay tumakas, at tumanan, at naparoon kay Samuel sa Rama, at isinaysay sa kaniya ang lahat ng ginawa ni Saul sa kaniya. At siya at si Samuel ay yumaon at tumahan sa Najoth.
So, David, fled, and escaped, and came in unto Samuel in Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him, —and he and Samuel departed, and dwelt in Naioth.
19 At nasaysay kay Saul na sinasabi, Narito si David ay nasa Najoth sa Rama.
And it was told Saul, saying, —Lo! David, is in Naioth, in Ramah.
20 At nagsugo si Saul ng mga sugo upang dakpin si David: at nang kanilang makita ang pulutong ng mga propeta na nanganghuhula, at si Samuel ay tumatayong pinakapangulo sa kanila, ang Espiritu ng Dios ay dumating sa mga sugo ni Saul, at sila naman ay nanganghula.
So Saul sent messengers to take David, but, when they saw the assembly of prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, then came the Spirit of God upon the messengers of Saul, and, they also, were, moved to prophesy.
21 At nang maisaysay kay Saul, siya'y nagsugo ng ibang mga sugo, at sila man ay nanganghula. At si Saul ay nagsugo uli ng mga sugo na ikaitlo, at sila man ay nanganghula.
And, when they told Saul, and he sent other messengers, then were, they also, moved to prophesy. And, when Saul again sent messengers a third time, then were, they also, moved to prophesy.
22 Nang magkagayo'y naparoon din naman siya sa Rama, at dumating sa dakilang balon na nasa Socho: at siya'y tumanong, at nagsabi, Saan naroon si Samuel at si David? At sinabi ng isa, Narito, sila'y nasa Najoth sa Rama.
Then went, he also himself, to Ramah, and came in as far as the well of the threshing-floor which is in Sephi, and asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said—Lo! in Naioth, in Ramah.
23 At siya'y naparoon doon sa Najoth sa Rama: at ang Espiritu ng Dios ay dumating din sa kaniya, at siya'y nagpatuloy, at nanghula hanggang sa siya'y dumating sa Najoth sa Rama.
And, when he departed from thence towards Naioth in Ramah, then came upon, him also, the Spirit of God, and he went on and on, and was moved to prophesy, until he entered Naioth in Ramah.
24 At siya rin nama'y naghubad ng kaniyang mga suot, at siya man ay nanghula sa harap ni Samuel, at nahigang hubad sa buong araw na yaon at sa buong gabing yaon. Kaya't kanilang sinasabi, Pati ba si Saul ay nasa gitna ng mga propeta?
And, even he, stripped off his upper garments, and, even he, was moved to prophesy before Samuel, and lay prostrate, disrobed, all that day, and all the night. For this cause, do they say, Is, even Saul, among the prophets?
