1 Samuel 19
1 Saulu sọ fún Jonatani ọmọ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé kí wọ́n pa Dafidi. Ṣùgbọ́n Jonatani fẹ́ràn Dafidi púpọ̀
And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, to slay David.
2 Jonatani sì kìlọ̀ fún Dafidi pé, “Baba mi Saulu wá ọ̀nà láti pa ọ́, kíyèsi ara rẹ di òwúrọ̀ ọ̀la; lọ sí ibi ìkọ̀kọ̀, kí o sì sá pamọ́ sí ibẹ̀.
And Jonathan, Saul's son, loved David much: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul seeks to kill thee: take heed to thyself therefore to-morrow morning, and hide thyself, and dwell in secret.
3 Èmi yóò jáde lọ láti dúró ní ọ̀dọ̀ baba mi ní orí pápá níbi tí ó wà. Èmi yóò sọ̀rọ̀ fún un nípa à rẹ, èmi yóò sì sọ ohun tí òun bá wí fún ọ.”
And I will go forth, and stand near my father in the field where thou shalt be, and I will speak concerning thee to my father; and I will see what his answer may be, and I will tell thee.
4 Jonatani sọ̀rọ̀ rere nípa Dafidi fún Saulu baba rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọba kí ó ṣe ohun tí kò dára fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀; nítorí tí kò ṣẹ̀ ọ́, ohun tí ó sì ṣe pé ọ púpọ̀.
And Jonathan spoke favorably concerning David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against thy servant David, for he has not sinned against thee, and his deeds [are] very good.
5 Ó fi ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ wéwu nígbà tí ó pa Filistini. Olúwa ṣẹ́ ogun ńlá fún gbogbo Israẹli, ìwọ rí i inú rẹ dùn. Ǹjẹ́ nítorí kí ni ìwọ yóò ṣe dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí Dafidi aláìṣẹ̀, tí ìwọ yóò fi pa á láìnídìí?”
And he put his life in his hand, and smote the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great deliverance; and all Israel saw, and rejoined: why then dost thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
6 Saulu fetísí Jonatani, ó sì búra báyìí, “Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Olúwa bá ti ń bẹ láààyè, a kì yóò pa Dafidi.”
And Saul hearkened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, saying, [As] the Lord lives, he shall not die.
7 Nítorí náà Jonatani pe Dafidi, ó sì sọ gbogbo àjọsọ wọn fún un. Ó sì mú un wá fún Saulu, Dafidi sì wà lọ́dọ̀ Saulu gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti tẹ́lẹ̀.
And Jonathan called David, and told him all these words; and Jonathan brought David in to Saul, and he was before him as in former times.
8 Lẹ́ẹ̀kan an sí i ogun tún wá, Dafidi sì jáde lọ, ó sì bá àwọn ara Filistini jà. Ó sì pa wọn pẹ̀lú agbára, wọ́n sì sálọ níwájú u rẹ̀.
And there was again war against Saul; and David did valiantly, and fought against the Philistines, and smote them with a very great slaughter, and they fled from before him.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀mí búburú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá sí orí Saulu bí ó ti jókòó ní ilé e rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Bí Dafidi sì ti fọn ohun èlò orin olókùn,
And an evil spirit from God was upon Saul, and he was resting in his house, and a spear [was] in his hand, and David was playing on the harp with his hands.
10 Saulu sì wá ọ̀nà láti gún un mọ́ ògiri pẹ̀lú ọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Dafidi yẹ̀ ẹ́ sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí Saulu ti ju ọ̀kọ̀ náà mọ́ ara ògiri. Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà Dafidi sì fi ara pamọ́ dáradára.
And Saul sought to smite David with the spear; and David withdrew [suddenly] from the presence of Saul; and he drove the spear into the wall; and David retreated and escaped.
11 Saulu rán ènìyàn sí ilé Dafidi láti ṣọ́ ọ kí wọ́n sì pa á ní òwúrọ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n Mikali, ìyàwó Dafidi kìlọ̀ fún un pé, “Tí o kò bá sá fún ẹ̀mí rẹ ní alẹ́ yìí, ní ọ̀la ni a yóò pa ọ́.”
And it came to pass in that night, that Saul sent messengers to the house of David to watch him, in order to slay him in the morning; and Melchol David's wife told him, saying, Unless thou save thy life this night, to-morrow thou shalt be slain.
12 Nígbà náà Mikali sì gbé Dafidi sọ̀kalẹ̀ ó sì fi aṣọ bò ó.
So Melchol lets David down by the window, and he departed, and fled, and escaped.
13 Mikali gbé ère ó sì tẹ́ e lórí ibùsùn, ó sì fi irun ewúrẹ́ sí ibi orí rẹ̀.
And Melchol took images, and laid them on the bed, and she put the liver of a goat by his head, and covered them with clothes.
14 Nígbà ti Saulu rán ènìyàn láti lọ fi agbára mú Dafidi, Mikali wí pé, “Ó rẹ̀ ẹ́.”
And Saul sent messengers to take David; and they say that he is sick.
15 Nígbà náà ni Saulu rán ọkùnrin náà padà láti lọ wo Dafidi ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Mú wa fún mi láti orí ibùsùn rẹ̀ kí èmi kí ó le pa á.”
And he sends to David, saying, Bring him to me on the bed, that I may slay him.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà wọlé, ère ni ó bá lórí ibùsùn àti irun ewúrẹ́ ní orí ère náà.
And the messengers come, and, behold, the images [were] on the bed, and the goat's liver at his head.
17 Saulu wí fún Mikali pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi tàn mí báyìí tí o sì jẹ́ kí ọ̀tá mi sálọ tí ó sì bọ́?” Mikali sọ fún un pé, “Ó wí fún mi, ‘Jẹ́ kí èmi ó lọ. Èéṣe tí èmi yóò fi pa ọ́?’”
And Saul said to Melchol, Why hast thou thus deceived me, and suffered my enemy to depart, and he has escaped? and Melchol said to Saul, He said, let me go, and if not, I will slay thee.
18 Nígbà tí Dafidi ti sálọ tí ó sì ti bọ́, ó sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Samuẹli ní Rama ó sì sọ gbogbo ohun tí Saulu ti ṣe fún un. Òun àti Samuẹli lọ sí Naioti láti dúró níbẹ̀.
So David fled, and escaped, and comes to Samuel to Armathaim, and tells him all that Saul had done to him: and Samuel and David went, and dwelt in Navath in Rama.
19 Ọ̀rọ̀ sì tọ Saulu wá pé, “Dafidi wà ní Naioti ní Rama,”
And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David [is] in Navath in Rama.
20 Saulu sì rán àwọn ènìyàn láti fi agbára mú Dafidi wá ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n rí ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn wòlíì tí ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀, pẹ̀lú Samuẹli dúró níbẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí olórí, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run sì wá sórí àwọn arákùnrin Saulu àwọn náà sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
And Saul sent messengers to take David, and they saw the assembly of the prophets, and Samuel stood [as] appointed over them; and the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they prophesy.
21 Wọ́n sì sọ fún Saulu nípa rẹ̀, ó sì rán ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn mìíràn lọ àwọn náà sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀. Saulu tún rán oníṣẹ́ lọ ní ìgbà kẹta, àwọn náà bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
And it was told Saul, and he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied: and Saul sent again a third set of messengers, and they also prophesied.
22 Nígbẹ̀yìn, òun fúnra rẹ̀ sì lọ sí Rama ó sì dé ibi àmù ńlá kan ní Seku. Ó sì béèrè, “Níbo ni Samuẹli àti Dafidi wà?” Wọ́n wí pé, “Wọ́n wà ní ìrékọjá ní Naioti ní Rama.”
And Saul was very angry, and went himself also to Armathaim, and he comes as far as the well of the threshing floor that is in Sephi; and he asked and said, Where [are] Samuel and David? And they said, Behold, in Navath in Rama.
23 Saulu sì lọ sí Naioti ni Rama. Ṣùgbọ́n, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run bà lé e lórí ó sì ń lọ lọ́nà, ó sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ títí tí ó fi dé Naioti.
And he went thence to Navath in Rama: and there came the Spirit of God upon him also, and he went on prophesying till he came to Navath in Rama.
24 Ó sì bọ́ aṣọ rẹ̀, òun pẹ̀lú sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ níwájú Samuẹli. Ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́ náà àti ní òru. Ìdí nìyìí tí àwọn ènìyàn fi wí pé, “Ṣé Saulu náà wà lára àwọn wòlíì ni?”
And he took off his clothes, and prophesied before them; and lay down naked all that day and all that night: therefore they said, [Is] Saul also among the prophets?
