1 Samuel 21

1 Dafidi sì wá sí Nobu sọ́dọ̀ Ahimeleki àlùfáà, Ahimeleki sì bẹ̀rù láti pàdé Dafidi, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Èéha ti rí tí o fi ṣe ìwọ nìkan, àti tí kò sì sí ọkùnrin kan tí ó pẹ̀lú rẹ?”

And David comes to Nomba to Abimelech the priest: and Abimelech was amazed at meeting him, and said to him, Why [art] thou alone, and nobody with thee?

2 Dafidi sì wí fún Ahimeleki àlùfáà pé, “Ọba pàṣẹ iṣẹ́ kan fún mi, ó sì wí fún mi pé, ‘Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkan mọ ìdí iṣẹ́ náà ti mo rán ọ, àti èyí tí èmi ti pàṣẹ fún ọ.’ Èmi sì yan àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi sí ibí báyìí.

And David said to the priest, The king gave me a command to-day, and said to me, Let no one know the matter on which I send thee, an concerning which I have charged thee: and I have charged my servants [to be] in the place that is called, The faithfulness of God, phellani maemoni.

3 Ǹjẹ́ kín ni ó wà ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀? Fún mi ni ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún tàbí ohunkóhun tí o bá rí.”

And now if there are under thy hand five loaves, give into my hand what is ready.

4 Àlùfáà náà sí dá Dafidi lóhùn ó sì wí pé, “Kò sí àkàrà mìíràn lọ́wọ́ mi bí kò ṣe àkàrà mímọ́. Kìkì pé bi àwọn ọmọkùnrin bá ti pa ara wọn mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ obìnrin!”

And the priest answered David, and said, There are no common loaves under my hand, for I have none but holy loaves: if the young men have been kept at least from women, then they shall eat [them].

5 Dafidi sì dá àlùfáà náà lóhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Nítòótọ́ ni a tí ń pa ara wá mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ obìnrin láti ìwọ̀n ọjọ́ mẹ́ta wá, tí èmí ti jáde. Gbogbo nǹkan àwọn ọmọkùnrin náà ni ó mọ́, àti àkàrà náà sì wá dàbí àkàrà mìíràn, pàápàá nígbà tí ó jẹ́ pé òmíràn wà tí a yà sí mímọ́ lónìí nínú ohun èlò náà!”

And David answered the priest, and said to him, Yea, we have been kept from women for three days: when I came forth for the journey all the young men were purified; but this expedition is unclean, wherefore it shall be sanctified this day because of my weapons.

6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àlùfáà náà sì fi àkàrà mímọ́ fún un; nítorí tí kò sí àkàrà mìíràn níbẹ̀ bí kò ṣe àkàrà ìfihàn tí a ti kó kúrò níwájú Olúwa, láti fi àkàrà gbígbóná síbẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ tí a kó o kúrò.

So Abimelech the priest gave him the shewbread; for there were no loaves there, but only the presence loaves which had been removed from the presence of the Lord, in order that hot bread should be set on, on the day on which he took them.

7 Ọkùnrin kan nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Saulu sì ń bẹ níbẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ náà, tí a tí dádúró síwájú Olúwa; orúkọ rẹ̀ sì ń jẹ́ Doegi, ará Edomu olórí nínú àwọn darandaran Saulu.

And there was there on that day one of Saul's servants detained before the Lord, and his name [was] Doec the Syrian, tending the mules of Saul.

8 Dafidi sì tún wí fún Ahimeleki pé, “Kò sí ọ̀kọ̀ tàbí idà lọ́wọ́ rẹ níhìn-ín? Nítorí tí èmi kò mú idà mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò mú nǹkan ìjà mi lọ́wọ́, nítorí pé iṣẹ́ ọba náà jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ìkánjú.”

And David said to Abimelech, See if there is here under thy hand spear or sword, for I have not brought in my hand my sword or my weapons, for the word of the king was urgent.

9 Àlùfáà náà sì wí pé, “Idà Goliati ará Filistini tí ó pa ní àfonífojì Ela ní ń bẹ, wò ó, a fi aṣọ kan wé e lẹ́yìn efodu; bí ìwọ yóò bá mú èyí, mú un; kò sì sí òmíràn níhìn-ín mọ́ bí kò ṣe ọ̀kan náà.” Dafidi sì wí pé, “Kò sí èyí tí ó dàbí rẹ̀ fún mi.”

And the priest said, Behold the sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou smotest in the valley of Ela; and it is wrapt in a cloth: if thou wilt take it, take it for thyself, for there is no other except it here. And David said, Behold, there is none like it; give it me.

10 Dafidi sì dìde, o sì sá ni ọjọ́ náà níwájú Saulu, ó sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Akiṣi, ọba Gati.

And he gave it him; and David arose, and fled in that day from he presence of Saul: and David came to Anchus king of Geth.

11 Àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Akiṣi sì wí fún un pé, “Èyí ha kọ́ ní Dafidi ọba ilẹ̀ náà? Ǹjẹ́ wọn kò ha ti dárin ti wọ́n sì gbe orin nítorí rẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì jó pé, “‘Saulu pa ẹgbẹ̀rún tirẹ̀. Dafidi sì pa ẹgbàárùn-ún tirẹ̀’?”

And the servants of Anchus said to him, [Is] not this David the king of the land? Did not the dancing women begin the son to him, saying, Saul has smitten his thousand, and David his ten thousands?

12 Dafidi sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí í mọ́ ni ọkàn rẹ̀, ó sì bẹ̀rù Akiṣi ọba Gati gidigidi.

And David laid up the words in his heart, and was greatly afraid of Anchus king of Geth.

13 Òun sì pa ìṣe rẹ̀ dà níwájú wọn, ó sì sọ ara rẹ̀ di aṣiwèrè ní ọwọ́ wọn, ó sì ń fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ha ìlẹ̀kùn ojú ọ̀nà, ó sì ń wá itọ́ sí irùngbọ̀n rẹ̀.

And he changed his appearance before him, and feigned himself a false character in that day; and drummed upon the doors of the city, and used extravagant gestures with his hands, and fell against the doors of the gate, and his spittle ran down upon his beard.

14 Nígbà náà ni Akiṣi wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Wó o, nítorí kín ni ẹ̀yin ṣe mú un tọ̀ mí wá.

And Anchus said to his servants, Lo! ye see the man [is] mad: why have ye brought him in to me?

15 Mo ha ni un fi aṣiwèrè ṣe? Tí ẹ̀yin fi mú èyí tọ̀ mí wá láti hu ìwà aṣiwèrè níwájú mi? Eléyìí yóò ha wọ inú ilé mi?”

[Am] I in want of madmen, that ye have brought him in to me to play the madman? He shall not come into the house.
