1 Şamuelin 23

1 Davudus xabar abayle: – Filiştinar Qeilalqa k'yoptul, maadın attabı vod q'əra qa'a.

And they told David, saying: Behold the Philistines fight against Ceila, and they rob the barns.

2 Davudee Rəbbike qiyghanan: – Hark'ın Filiştinaaşika səyxene? Rəbbee Davuduk'le eyhen: – Hudoora k'yootle, Filiştinaaşike Qeila g'attivxhan hee'e.

Therefore David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the Lord said to David: Go, and thou shalt smite the Philistines, and shalt save Ceila.

3 Davudne insanaaşemee, Davuduk'le eyhen: – Şi inyaa'acab, Yahudayne cigabışeecab q'əvəyq'ən. Filiştinaaşde Qeilayeene g'oşunbışde ögeeqa şi nəxübne qığeepç'es?

And the men that were with David, said to him: Behold we are in fear here in Judea, how much more if we go to Ceila against the hands of the Philistines?

4 Davudee meed Rəbbike qiyghan, Rəbbeeyid mang'uk'le eyhen: – Oza qıxha Qeilayeeqa hak'ne. Zı Filiştinar yiğne xılyaqa qevles.

Therefore David consulted the Lord again. And he answered and said to him: Arise, and go to Ceila: for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

5 Davudun insanar Qeilayeeqa hapk'ın, maane Filiştinaaşilqa k'yoohar. Manbışin çavra-vəq'ə Davudee g'ahayşu qıkkekkan. Davudee Filiştınbışilqa ver ablyav'u, Qeilayn millet g'attixhan ha'an.

David therefore, and his men, went to Ceila, and fought against the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and made a great slaughter of them: and David saved the inhabitants of Ceila.

6 (Mançile oğiylid Aximelekne dixee Evyataree Qeilayeeqa Davudne k'anyaqa g'adayxhvan qöömee, kaahinaaşin ileylığ adayle.)

Now at that time, when Abiathar the son of Achimelech fled to David to Ceila, he came down having an ephod with him.

7 Davud Qeilayeeqa arıva Şaululqa hixhar ha'an. Şaulee eyhen: – Allaheecar mana yizde xılyaqa quvu. Mana ç'ak'ın akkabınaneyiy sat'ulbınane şahareeqa ikkeç'u, vucee cun ögü ı'xı'.

And it was told Saul that David was come to Ceila: and Saul said: The Lord hath delivered him into my hands, and he is shut up, being come into a city, that hath gates and bars.

8 Şaulee Qeilayee Davudıy cukan insanar avqasva, gırgına g'oşun dəv'əys sa'a.

And Saul commanded all the people to go down to fight against Ceila, and to besiege David, and his men.

9 Davuduk'le Şaulee cuk qəlasın ha'as ıxhay ats'anniy. Mang'vee kaahin Evyatarık'le eyhen: – Kaahinaaşin ileylığ inyaqa qale.

Now when David understood, that Saul secretly prepared evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest: Bring hither the ephod.

10 Davudeecad meed sak'ı, eyhen: – İzrailyna Allah eyxhena, Rəbb, zak'le g'ayxhiyn, zal-alla Şaulus Qeilayeeqa arı şahar q'əra qaa'asıb vukkan.

And David said: O Lord God of Israel, thy servant hath heard a report, that Saul designeth to come to Ceila, to destroy the city for my sake:

11 Qeilayne milletın zı mang'une xılyaqa qelesdaniyxan? Zak'le, Yiğne nukarık'le, g'ayxhiyn ixhesınne, Şaul inyaqa ayresdane? İzrailyna Allah eyxhena, Rəbb, hucoona ixhes, man zak'le eyhe. Rəbbee «Mana ayresdava» alidghıniy qele.

Will the men of Ceila deliver me into his hands? and will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? O Lord God of Israel, tell thy servant. And the Lord said: He will come down.

12 Mane gahıl Davudee meed qiyghanan: – Qeilayne milletın, zınayiy yizın insanar mang'une xılyaqa qevlesınbıniyxan? Rəbbee «Qevlesınbıva» eyhe.

And David said: Will the men of Ceila deliver me, and my men, into the hands of Saul? And the Lord said: They will deliver thee up.

13 Davud yixhıd vəşşılqa ələəne insanıka Qeilayeençe qığeç'u, inyaa-şa axva giyğal. Davud Qeilayeençe hixu ark'ınnava, Şaululqa hixhar hı'ımee, mang'vee cuna fıkır badal haa'ana, maqa hayk'an deş.

Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose, and departing from Ceila, wandered up and down uncertain where they should stay: and it was told Saul that David was fled from Ceila, and had escaped: wherefore he forbore to go out.

14 Davud xılyaqa gidexhasde xhinene cigabışee, Zif eyhene sahrayne tepabışee axva eyxhe. Şaulee mana yiğıscar t'abal ha'a ıxha, Allaheemee Davud mang'une xılyaqa gixhas haysar deş.

But David abode in the desert in strong holds, and he remained in a mountain of the desert of Ziph, in a woody hill. And Saul sought him always: but the Lord delivered him not into his hands.

15 Davud Zifne sahreene Xoreşnang'a mang'uk'le g'iyxhen, Şaulee vucur gik'asva t'abal ha'a.

And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life. And David was in the desert of Ziph, in a wood.

16 Şaulna dix Yonatan Xoreşeeqa Davudne k'anyaqa arı, mang'us Allahne doyule yik'bı hele.

And Jonathan the son of Saul arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hands in God: and he said to him:

17 Davuduk'le mang'vee eyhen: – Qı'məyq'ən, yizde dekkıne Şaulne xılyaqa ğu gixhas deş. Ğu İzrailyna paççah ixhes, zınar vale qiyğiyna q'ör'esda insan. Man yizde dekkık'le Şauluk'led çikana ats'an.

Fear not: for the hand of my father Saul shall not find thee, and thou shalt reign over Israel, and I shall be next to thee, yea, and my father knoweth this.

18 Qiyğa manbışde q'öng'eesana sana-sang'us Rəbbine ögil cuvab hele. Mançe Yonatan ayk'anna xaaqa, Davudur Xoreş axva.

And the two made a covenant before the Lord: and David abode in the wood: but Jonathan returned to his house.

19 Zifğançenbı Giveayeeqa Şaulusqa abı, eyhen: – Davud yişde k'anene, Yeşimonne canubılyne Xakilayne tepalyne Xoreşee xıl hidixharasde cigabışee dyugulyxha vor.

And the Ziphites went up to Saul in Gabaa, saying: Lo, doth not David lie hid with us in the strong holds of the wood, in mount Hachila, which is on the right hand of the desert.

20 Paççah, vas mısayiy ıkkan, maqa ayre, şicar aqqı mana yiğne xılyaqa qelesda.

Now therefore come down, as thy soul hath desired to come down: and it shall be our business to deliver him into the king’s hands.

21 Şaulee eyhen: – Zas yugvalla hav'uynçil-alla, Rəbbee şos barakat helecen.

And Saul said: Blessed be ye of the Lord, for you have pitied my case.

22 Sayıb hapk'ın yugda ats'axhxhe, mang'vee g'el nyaqayiy gixhxhı, şavuk'leyiy mana maa'ar g'acu. Zak'le mana süvə xhinnena insan vorva g'ayxhı.

Go therefore, I pray you, and use all diligence, and curiously inquire, and consider the place where his foot is, and who hath seen him there: for he thinketh of me, that I lie craftily in wait for him.

23 Mana dyugulexhen cigabı gırgınbı ats'axhxhe, yugda ats'axhxhad, zasqa savk'le. Zınar maqa şoka ı'qqəsda. Mana nimeletteyiy ine ölkee Yahudee, zı mana gırgınəəng'ə t'abal ha'asda. Mana inçeğana ixheene, mana zı Yahudavolle gırgınəəng'ə t'abal ha'asda.

Consider and see all his lurking holes, wherein he is bid, and return to me with the certainty of the thing, that I may go with you. And if be should even go down into the earth to hide himself, I will search him out in all the thousands of Juda.

24 Zifğançenbı oza qeepxha Şaulne ögee Zifqa avayk'an. Davudıy cun insanar Yeşimonne canubılyne, Arava eyhene cigayne Maonne sahree vuxha.

And they arose and went to Ziph before Saul: and David and his men were in the desert of Maon, in the plain at the right hand of Jesimon.

25 Şaulıy cun insanar mana t'abal ha'asva, mane cigeeqa havayk'an. Man Davudulqa hixhar hı'ımee, mana ganznane cigeeqa qarı, Maonne sahree ulyoyzar. Şauluk'le man ats'axhxhamee, Maonne sahree Davuduqar qihna gexha.

Then Saul and his men went to seek him: and it was told David, and forthwith he went down to the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon: and when Saul had heard of it he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.

26 Şaul cune insanaaşika suvane ine surale, Davudur cune insanaaşika suvane şene surale əlyhəə vooxhe. Davudus, Şaulıle hixu, dyugulyxhes ıkkiykan. Şaulusmee mang'un ögü ı'xı', mana aqqas ıkkiykan.

And Saul went on this side of the mountain: and David and his men were on the other side of the mountain: and David despaired of being able to escape from the face of Saul: and Saul and his men encompassed David and his men round about to take them.

27 Mane gahıl Şaulusqa xabar ana sa insan arı eyhen: – Zaara ixhe, yı'q'əlqa sak'le, yişde ölkalqa Filiştinar k'yoptul.

And a messenger came to Saul, saying: Make haste to come, for the Philistines have poured in themselves upon the land.

28 Şaulee, Davuduqa qihna girxhuy g'aletçu, mançe ayk'anna Filiştinaaşika səyxəs. Mançil-alla mane cigays Sela-Hammaxleqotva (Curepxhayn Ganz) do giyxhe.

Wherefore Saul returned, leaving the pursuit of David, and went to meet the Philistines. For this cause they called that place, the Rock of division.

29 Davud mançe En-Gedi eyhene cigeene xıl hidixharasde cigabışeeqa ayk'an.

Then David went up from thence, and dwelt in strong holds of Engaddi.
