< 1 Samuel 30 >
1 At nangyari, nang si David at ang kaniyang mga lalake ay dumating sa Siclag, sa ikatlong araw, na ang mga Amalecita ay sumalakay sa Timugan, at sa Siclag, at sinaktan ang Siclag, at sinunog ng apoy;
And it comes to pass, in the coming in of David and his men to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites have pushed toward the south, and to Ziklag, and strike Ziklag, and burn it with fire,
2 At dinalang bihag ang mga babae at lahat na nandoon, ang maliliit at gayon din ang malalaki; hindi nila pinatay ang sinoman, kundi kanilang pinagdadala, at nagpatuloy ng kanilang lakad.
and they take the women who [are] in it captive; they have not put anyone to death from small to great, and they lead [them] away, and go on their way.
3 At nang si David at ang kaniyang mga lalake ay dumating sa bayan, narito, sinunog ng apoy; at ang kanilang mga asawa, at ang kanilang mga anak na lalake at babae ay pinagdadalang bihag.
And David comes in—and his men—to the city, and behold, [it is] burned with fire, and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters have been taken captive.
4 Nang magkagayo'y si David at ang bayan na nasa kaniya ay naglakas ng tinig, at umiyak, hanggang sa sila'y nawalan ng lakas na umiyak.
And David lifts up—and the people who [are] with him—their voice and weep, until they have no power to weep.
5 At ang dalawang asawa ni David ay nabihag, si Ahinoam na taga Jezreel, at si Abigail, na asawa ni Nabal, na taga Carmelo.
And the two wives of David have been taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;
6 At nagdalamhating totoo si David, sapagka't pinagsasalitaan ng bayan na batuhin siya, sapagka't ang kaluluwa ng buong bayan ay pumanglaw, bawa't tao dahil sa kanikaniyang mga anak na lalake at babae; nguni't si David ay nagpakatibay sa Panginoon niyang Dios.
and David has great distress, for the people have said to stone him, for the soul of all the people has been bitter, each for his sons and for his daughters; and David strengthens himself in his God YHWH.
7 At sinabi ni David kay Abiathar na saserdote, na anak ni Ahimelech, Isinasamo ko sa iyo na dalhin mo rito ang epod. At dinala doon ni Abiathar ang epod kay David.
And David says to Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, “Please bring the ephod near to me”; and Abiathar brings the ephod near to David,
8 At sumangguni si David sa Panginoon, na nagsasabi, Kung aking habulin ang pulutong na ito, ay akin kayang aabutan sila? At sinagot niya siya, Iyong habulin: sapagka't tunay na iyong aabutan, at walang pagsalang mababawi mo ang lahat.
and David inquires of YHWH, saying, “I pursue after this troop—do I overtake it?” And He says to him, “Pursue, for you certainly overtake, and certainly deliver.”
9 Sa gayo'y yumaon si David, siya at ang anim na raang lalake na kasama niya, at naparoon sa batis ng Besor, na kinaroroonan niyaong mga naiwan sa likuran.
And David goes on, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, and they come to the Brook of Besor, and those left have stood still,
10 Nguni't hinabol ni David, niya at ng apat na raang lalake: sapagka't ang dalawang daan natira sa likuran, na mga pata na hindi na nakatawid sa batis ng Besor:
and David pursues, he and four hundred men (and two hundred men stand still who have been too faint to pass over the Brook of Besor),
11 At sila'y nakasumpong ng isang taga Egipto sa parang, at dinala nila siya kay David, at binigyan nila siya ng tinapay, at kumain: at binigyan nila siya ng tubig na mainom:
and they find a man, an Egyptian, in the field, and take him to David, and give bread to him, and he eats, and they cause him to drink water,
12 At binigyan nila siya ng isang putol ng binilong igos, at dalawang buwig na ubas; at nang kaniyang makain, ang kaniyang diwa ay nagsauli uli sa kaniya: sapagka't hindi siya nakakain ng tinapay o nakainom man ng tubig, na tatlong araw at tatlong gabi.
and give to him a piece of a bunch of dried figs, and two bunches of raisins, and he eats, and his spirit returns to him, for he has not eaten bread nor drunk water [for] three days and three nights.
13 At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Kanino ka ba nauukol? at taga saan ka? At sinabi niya, Ako'y isang binatang taga Egipto, bataan ng isang Amalecita; at iniwan ako ng aking panginoon, sapagka't tatlong araw na ako'y nagkasakit.
And David says to him, “Whose [are] you? And where [are] you from?” And he says, “I [am] an Egyptian youth, servant to a man, an Amalekite, and my lord forsakes me, for I have been sick [for] three days,
14 Kami ay sumalakay sa Timugan ng mga Ceretheo, at sa nauukol sa Juda, at sa Timugan ng Caleb; at aming sinunog ng apoy ang Siclag.
we pushed [to] the south of the Cherethite, and against that which [is] to Judah, and against the south of Caleb, and we burned Ziklag with fire.”
15 At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Ilulusong mo ba ako sa pulutong na ito? At kaniyang sinabi, Ipanumpa mo sa akin ang Dios, hindi mo ako papatayin, o ibibigay man sa mga kamay ng aking panginoon, at aking ilulusong ka sa pulutong na ito.
And David says to him, “Do you bring me down to this troop?” And he says, “Swear to me by God [that] you do not put me to death, nor do you shut me up into the hand of my lord, and I bring you down to this troop.”
16 At nang kaniyang mailusong, narito, sila'y nangangalat sa buong lupa, na nagkakainan at nagiinuman, at nagkakasayahan, dahil sa lahat na malaking samsam na kanilang nakuha sa lupain ng mga Filisteo, at sa lupain ng Juda.
And he brings him down, and behold, they are spread out over the face of all the earth, eating, and drinking, and celebrating, with all the great spoil which they have taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
17 At sinaktan ni David sila mula sa pagtatakip silim hanggang sa paglubog ng araw sa sumunod na araw: at walang taong nakatanan sa kanila liban sa apat na raang bataan na nakasakay sa mga kamelyo at tumakas.
And David strikes them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day, and there has not escaped of them a man, except four hundred young men who have ridden on the camels and flee.
18 At binawi ni David ang lahat na nakuha ng mga Amalecita: at iniligtas ni David ang kaniyang dalawang asawa.
And David delivers all that the Amalekites have taken; David has also delivered his two wives.
19 At walang nagkulang sa kanila, kahit maliit o malaki man, kahit mga anak na lalake o babae man, kahit samsam man, kahit anomang bagay na nakuha nila sa kanila: ibinalik na lahat ni David.
And nothing of theirs has lacked, from small to great, and to sons and daughters, and from the spoil, even to all that they had taken to themselves, David has brought back the whole,
20 At kinuha ni David ang lahat ng kawan at bakahan, na kanilang dinala na nasa unahan niyaong mga ibang hayop, at sinabi, Ito'y samsam ni David.
and David takes the whole of the flock and of the herd [that] they have led on before these livestock, and they say, “This [is] David’s spoil.”
21 At naparoon si David sa dalawang daang lalake, na totoong mga pata na hindi nangakasunod kay David, na kanila namang pinatahan sa batis ng Besor; at sila'y lumabas upang salubungin si David, at upang salubungin ang mga taong kasama niya: at nang lumapit si David sa bayan, siya'y bumati sa kanila.
And David comes to the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the Brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who [are] with him, and David approaches the people, and asks of them of welfare.
22 Nang magkagayo'y sumagot ang lahat ng masamang tao, at mga tao na hamak, sa mga yumaong kasama ni David, at nagsabi, Sapagka't hindi sila yumaong kasama namin, hindi namin bibigyan sila ng samsam na aming nabawi, liban sa bawa't lalake ay ang kaniyang asawa at ang kaniyang mga anak, upang kanilang dalhin, at yumaon.
And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answers, indeed, they say, “Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go.”
23 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni David, Huwag ninyong gagawing gayon, mga kapatid ko, sa ibinigay sa atin ng Panginoon, na siyang nagadya sa atin, at nagbigay sa ating kamay ng pulutong na naparito laban sa atin.
And David says, “You do not do so, my brothers, with that which YHWH has given to us, and He preserves us, and gives the troop which comes against us into our hand;
24 At sino ang didinig sa inyo sa bagay na ito? sapagka't kung gaano ang bahagi ng lumusong sa pakikipagbaka, ay gayon ang bahagi ng naiwan sa daladalahan: sila'y paraparang magkakabahagi.
and who listens to you in this thing? For as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also [is] the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels—they share alike.”
25 At nagkagayon, na mula sa araw na yaon, na siya'y gumawa ng isang palatuntunan at ayos sa Israel, hanggang sa araw na ito.
And it comes to pass from that day and forward, that he appoints it for a statute and for an ordinance for Israel to this day.
26 At nang dumating si David sa Siclag, siya'y nagpadala ng mga samsam sa mga matanda sa Juda, sa makatuwid baga'y sa kaniyang mga kaibigan, na sinasabi, Narito, ang isang kaloob sa inyo na mula sa samsam sa mga kaaway ng Panginoon;
And David comes to Ziklag, and sends of the spoil to [the] elderly of Judah, to his friends, saying, “Behold, a blessing for you of the spoil of the enemies of YHWH,”
27 Sa kanila na nasa Beth-el, at sa kanila na nasa Ramoth ng Timugan, at sa kanila na nasa Jathir;
to those in Beth-El, and to those in South Ramoth, and to those in Jattir,
28 At sa kanila na nasa Aroer, at sa kanila na nasa Siphmoth, at sa kanila na nasa Esthemoa;
and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,
29 At sa kanila na nasa Rachal, at sa kanila na nasa mga bayan ng mga Jerameelita, at sa kanila na nasa mga bayan ng mga Cineo;
and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,
30 At sa kanila na sa Horma, at sa kanila na nasa Chorasan, at sa kanila na nasa Athach;
and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-Ashan, and to those in Athach,
31 At sa kanila na nasa Hebron, at sa lahat na dako na karaniwang pinaroroonan ni David at ng kaniyang mga lalake.
and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David—he and his men—had gone up and down.
