< Samu'il 1 21 >

1 Dawut ǝmdi Nobⱪa kelip Ahimǝlǝk kaⱨinning ⱪexiƣa bardi. Lekin Ahimǝlǝk Dawutni kɵrgǝndǝ titrǝp ⱪorⱪup uningƣa: — Nemixⱪa birimu sǝn bilǝn kǝlmǝy yalƣuz kǝlding? — dedi.
UDavida waya eNobhi ku-Ahimeleki umphristi. U-Ahimeleki wathuthumela ekuhlanganeni kwakhe laye, wasebuza esithi, “Kungani uwedwa na? Kungani kungekho olawe na?”
2 Dawut Ahimǝlǝk kaⱨinƣa: — Padixaⱨ manga mǝlum bir ixni buyrup: — Mǝn sanga buyruƣan ix yaki sanga tapilƣan yolyoruⱪ toƣrisidin ⱨeqkim birnemǝ bilmisun, degǝnidi. Ɵz ƣulamlirimni bolsa mǝlum bir jayƣa berixⱪa bekitip ⱪoydum.
UDavida waphendula u-Ahimeleki umphristi wathi, “Inkosi ingiphathise udaba oluthize, wathi kimi, ‘Akungabikhona ozakwazi ngenjongo yakho langalokho okuthunyiweyo.’ Abantu bami ngibatshele ukuba bahlangane lami endaweni ethize.
3 Əmdi ⱪolungda nemǝ bar? Bǝx nan, yaki nemǝ bolsa, xuni manga bǝrgin, dedi.
Manje-ke, kuyini olakho? Ngipha izinkwa ezinhlanu, loba kuyini ongakuthola.”
4 Kaⱨin Dawutⱪa jawab berip: — Ⱪolumda adǝttiki nan yoⱪ, pǝⱪǝt muⱪǝddǝs nan bar. Əgǝr ƣulamlar ayallarƣa yeⱪinlaxmiƣan bolsa yesǝ rawa bolidu, dedi.
Kodwa umphristi waphendula uDavida wathi, “Kangilasinkwa esejwayelekileyo; kodwa-ke kulesinkwa esingcwelisiweyo lapha kodwa kuya ngokuthi amadoda abezigcinile esifazaneni na.”
5 Dawut kaⱨinƣa jawab berip: — Bǝrⱨǝⱪ, mǝn baxⱪa waⱪitlarda qiⱪⱪinimƣa ohxax, ayallar bizdin yiraⱪ bolƣili üq kün boldi. Mǝn [ⱨǝrⱪetim] qiⱪⱪanda, gǝrqǝ adǝttiki sǝpǝr bolsimu, ƣulamlarning ⱪaqiliri pak bolidiƣan yǝrdǝ, bügün ular wǝ ⱪaqiliri tehimu pak bolmamdu, dedi.
UDavida waphendula wathi, “Impela abesifazane babevinjelwe kithi, njengenjwayelo lapho ngiphuma. Imizimba yamadoda ingcwele lasemikhankasweni engengcwele. Pho ingaba njalo okungakanani lamhla!”
6 Xuning bilǝn kaⱨin uningƣa muⱪǝddǝs nandin bǝrdi, qünki bu yǝrdǝ «tǝⱪdim nan»din baxⱪa ⱨeqⱪandaⱪ nan yoⱪ idi. Bu nan Pǝrwǝrdigarning ⱨuzuriƣa yengi issiⱪ nan ⱪoyulƣan küni almaxturulƣan nanlar idi
Ngakho umphristi wamnika isinkwa esingcwelisiweyo ngoba kwakungelasinkwa lapho ngaphandle kwesinkwa esiNgcwele sikaThixo esasisuswe phambi kukaThixo kwasekubekwa esitshisayo endaweni yaso ngosuku esasuswa ngalo.
7 (lekin u küni Saulning hizmǝtkarliridin mǝlum birsi u yǝrdǝ Pǝrwǝrdigarning ⱨuzurida ⱪaldurulƣanidi. Uning ismi Doǝg bolup Saulning padiqilirining qongi idi).
Ngalolosuku omunye wezinceku zikaSawuli wayekhonapho, ekhonza phambi kukaThixo; wayenguDoyegi umʼEdomi, induna yabelusi bakaSawuli.
8 Dawut Ahimǝlǝkkǝ: — Ⱪolungda nǝyzǝ yaki ⱪiliq yoⱪmu? Padixaⱨ tapxurƣan ix jiddiy bolƣaq yaki ⱪiliq yaki baxⱪa yaraƣlirimni elip kelǝlmidim, dedi.
UDavida wabuza u-Ahimeleki wathi, “Kawulamkhonto kumbe inkemba lapha na? Kangizanga lenkemba yami loba nje esinye isikhali, ngoba umsebenzi wenkosi ubungophuthumayo.”
9 Kaⱨin: — Sǝn Elaⱨ jilƣisida ɵltürgǝn Filistiy Goliatning ⱪiliqi bu yǝrdǝ bar, u ǝfodning kǝynidǝ, bir parqǝ rǝhtkǝ oraⱪliⱪ ⱨalda turidu. Halisang alƣin, uningdin baxⱪisi yoⱪ, dedi. Dawut: — Bu tǝngdixi yoⱪ ⱪiliqtur, xuni manga bǝrgin, dedi.
Umphristi waphendula wathi, “Inkemba kaGoliyathi umFilistiya owambulalayo eSigodini sase-Ela, ilapha; igoqelwe ngelembu ngemva kwesembatho semahlombe. Nxa uyifuna, ithathe; kakukho enye inkemba lapha ngaphandle kwaleyo.” UDavida wasesithi, “Kayikho enjengayo; ngipha yona.”
10 Dawut u küni ⱪopup Sauldin ⱪeqip Gatning padixaⱨi Aⱪixning ⱪexiƣa bardi.
Ngalolosuku uDavida wabalekela uSawuli waya ku-Akhishi inkosi yaseGathi.
11 Lekin Aⱪixning hizmǝtkarliri uningƣa: — Bu zeminning padixaⱨi Dawut ǝmǝsmu? Uning toƣrisida ⱪiz-ayallar bir-birigǝ: — Saul minglap ɵltürdi, Wǝ Dawut on minglap ɵltürdi, — dǝp nahxa-ƣǝzǝl oⱪuxup ussul oyniƣan ǝmǝsmu, dedi.
Kodwa izinceku zika-Akhishi zathi kuye, “Lo kasuDavida inkosi yelizwe na? Kasuye yini abahlabela ngaye emigidweni yabo besithi: ‘USawuli ubulele izinkulungwane zakhe, kodwa uDavida ubulele amatshumi ezinkulungwane zakhe’?”
12 Dawut bu sɵzlǝrni kɵngligǝ püküp Gatning padixaⱨi Aⱪixtin bǝk ⱪorⱪti.
UDavida wawagcina amazwi la enhliziyweni yakhe wamesaba kakhulu u-Akhishi inkosi yaseGathi.
13 Xuning üqün ularning kɵz aldida ɵzining yürüx-turuxlirini ɵzgǝrtip, ularning ⱪolida turƣan waⱪtida ɵzini sarangdǝk kɵrsǝtti; u dǝrwazilarning ixiklirigǝ jijip, tükürükini saⱪiliƣa aⱪturatti.
Ngakho wazenza ophambeneyo kubo; njalo kwathi lapho ekubo wenza njengomuntu ohlanyayo, edwebadweba ezivalweni zesango njalo wayekela lendenda zehlela endevini zakhe.
14 Aⱪix hizmǝtkarliriƣa: — Mana bu adǝmning sarangliⱪini kɵrmǝmsilǝr? Uni nemixⱪa mening aldimƣa elip kǝldinglar?
U-Akhishi wasesithi ezincekwini zakhe, “Khangelani umuntu lo! Uphambene! Kungani limletha kimi na?
15 Mǝndǝ saranglar kǝmqilmidi? Silǝr bu kixini aldimƣa sarangliⱪ ⱪilƣili elip kǝldinglarmu? Bu adǝm mening ɵyümgǝ kirixi kerǝkmu? — dedi.
Lithi ngiziswele yini inhlanya lize lilethe umuntu lo lapha ukuba aqhubeke kanje phambi kwami na? Umuntu lo kumele angene endlini yami na?”
