1 Samuel 27
1 Na Dawid dwenee ho sɛ, “Ɛda bi, mɛtɔ wɔ Saulo nsa ano. Na deɛ mɛyɛ a ɛbɛyɛ pa ara ne sɛ, mɛdwane akɔ Filistifoɔ nkyɛn. Ɛba saa a, Saulo bɛgyae mʼakyi die na mɛnya banbɔ.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita ʻi hono loto, “Ko eni, ʻe ai ha ʻaho te u ʻauha ai nai ʻi he nima ʻo Saula: ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa lelei hake kiate au, ka ko ʻeku hola ʻo hao ki he fonua ʻoe kau Filisitia; pea ʻe ʻosi ai ʻae mamahi ʻa Saula kiate au, ʻi he toe kumi kiate au ʻi he ngaahi potu fonua ʻo ʻIsileli: ko ia te u hao ai mei hono nima.”
2 Na Dawid ne mmarima ahansia tutu kɔtenaa Gat kɔhyɛɛ Maok babarima ɔhene Akis ase.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Tevita, pea hoko atu ia mo e kau tangata ʻe toko onongeau naʻe ʻiate ia kia ʻAkisi, ko e foha ʻo Maoki ko e tuʻi ʻo Kati.
3 Na Dawid de ne yerenom baanu a wɔyɛ Ahinoam a ɔfiri Yesreel ne Abigail a ɔfiri Karmel a na ɔyɛ Nabal kunabaa no kɔeɛ.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Tevita mo ʻAkisi ʻi Kati, ʻaia mo hono kau tangata, ʻae tangata taki taha mo hono fale, ʻa Tevita mo hono ongo uaifi ʻe toko ua, ko ʻAhinoami ko e fefine Sesilili, mo ʻApikale ko e fefine Kameli, ʻaia naʻe mali mo Napale.
4 Saulo tee sɛ Dawid adwane kɔ Gat no, wanni nʼakyi anhwehwɛ no bio.
Pea naʻe tala kia Saula kuo hola ʻa Tevita ki Kati: pea naʻe ʻikai te ne toe kumi ia.
5 Na Dawid ka kyerɛɛ Akis sɛ, “Sɛ ɛrenha wo a, ma yɛn baabi wɔ nkuro no bi so na yɛnkɔtena hɔ sene sɛ yɛbɛtena ahenkuro yi mu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Tevita kia ʻAkisi, “Ko eni, kapau kuo u ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, tuku kenau foaki mai kiate au ha potu fonua ʻi ha kolo, pe ʻi ʻuta, koeʻuhi ke u nofo ki ai: he koeʻumaʻā ʻae nofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki mo koe ʻi he kolo ʻae tuʻi?”
6 Enti, Akis de Siklag kuro maa no, (na ɛfiri saa ɛda no, ɛhɔ abɛyɛ Yuda ahemfo atenaeɛ de bɛsi ɛnnɛ),
Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe ʻAkisi ʻa Sikilaki ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: ko ia naʻe toka ai ʻa Sikilaki ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
7 na wɔtenaa Filistifoɔ no mu afe ne abosome ɛnan.
Pea ko hono lahi ʻoe ʻaho naʻe nofo ai ʻa Tevita ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, ko e taʻu ʻe taha mo e māhina ʻe fā.
8 Afei, Dawid ne ne dɔm kɔto hyɛɛ Gesurfoɔ, Girsifoɔ ne Amalekfoɔ so. Saa nnipa yi na na kane no, wɔtete asase a ɛtene kɔ Sur a ɛwɔ Misraim ɛkwan so no.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Tevita mo hono kau tangata, ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai Kesuli, mo e kakai Kesili, mo e kakai ʻAmaleki; he ko kinautolu ko e kakai ʻi muʻa ʻoe fonua ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ki Sua, ʻo ʻalu atu ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
9 Dawid annya onipa baako anikann wɔ nkura a ɔkɔto hyɛɛ wɔn so no mu. Ɔfaa nnwan, anantwie, mfunumu, nyoma ne ntadeɛ nyinaa ansa na ɔsane akɔ Akis nkyɛn.
Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻe Tevita ʻae fonua, pea naʻe ʻikai tuku ke moʻui ha tangata pe ko e fefine, pea naʻa ne fetuku ʻo ʻave ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e fanga ʻasi, mo e fanga kāmeli, mo e ngaahi kofu, pea liu mai ʻo haʻu, pea hoko ia kia ʻAkisi.
10 Akis bisaa Dawid sɛ, “Ɛhe na ɛnnɛ mofom nneɛma kɔduruiɛ?” Dawid buaa sɛ, “Yɛkɔɔ Yuda anafoɔ fam, kɔto hyɛɛ Yerahmeelfoɔ ne Kenifoɔ so.”
Pea pehē ʻe ʻAkisi, “Kuo mou tofa ʻae hala ki fē he ʻaho ni?” Pea pehē ʻe Tevita, “Ki he potu tonga ʻo Siuta, pea ki he potu tonga ʻoe kakai Selamili, pea ki he potu tonga ʻoe kakai Kena.”
11 Dawid kumm wɔn nyinaa. Wannya obiara a ɔbɛtumi aba Gat abɛkyerɛ faako a ɔkɔeɛ. Saa adeɛ yi kɔɔ so ara wɔ ɛberɛ a na Dawid te Filistifoɔ mu no.
Pea naʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻe Tevita ha tangata ʻe tokotaha pe ha fefine, ke ʻomi ʻae ongoongo ki Kati, ʻo ne pehē, Telia naʻa nau haʻu ʻo talaʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻo pehē, naʻe fai pehē ʻe Tevita, pea ʻe pehē pe ʻene anga, lolotonga ʻene nofo ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia.
12 Akis gyee Dawid diiɛ, na ɔdwenee ne tirim sɛ, “Saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, Israelfoɔ bɛkyiri no kɔkɔɔkɔ. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔtena ha, na ɔsom me afebɔɔ.”
Pea naʻe tui ʻa ʻAkisi kia Tevita, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo fakafehiʻa ʻaupito ʻe ia ʻa hono kakai ʻIsileli kiate ia; ko ia ʻe hoko ai ia ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata.”
