1 Samuel 23
1 Wọ́n sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Sá wò ó, àwọn ará Filistini ń bá ará Keila jagun, wọ́n sì ja àwọn ilẹ̀ ìpakà lólè.”
And people told to David saying there! [the] Philistines [are] fighting against Keilah and they [are] plundering the threshing floors.
2 Dafidi sì béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa pé, “Ṣé kí èmi ó lọ kọlu àwọn ará Filistini wọ̀nyí bí?” Olúwa sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Lọ kí o sì kọlu àwọn ará Filistini kí o sì gba Keila sílẹ̀.”
And he enquired David by Yahweh saying ¿ will I go and will I strike? the Philistines these. And he said Yahweh to David go and you will strike the Philistines and you will deliver Keilah.
3 Àwọn ọmọkùnrin tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ Dafidi sì wí fún un pé, “Wò ó, àwa ń bẹ̀rù níhìn-ín yìí ní Juda; ǹjẹ́ yóò ti rí nígbà ti àwa bá dé Keila láti fi ojú ko ogun àwọn ara Filistini?”
And they said [the] men of David to him here! we here in Judah [are] fearful and indeed? if we will go Keilah against [the] battle lines of [the] Philistines.
4 Dafidi sì tún béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa. Olúwa sì dá a lóhùn, ó sì wí pé, “Dìde, kí o sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Keila, nítorí pé èmi ó fi àwọn ará Filistini náà lé ọ lọ́wọ́.”
And he repeated again David to enquire by Yahweh. And he answered him Yahweh and he said arise go down Keilah for I [am] about to give [the] Philistines in hand your.
5 Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì lọ sí Keila, wọ́n sì bá àwọn ará Filistini jà, wọ́n sì kó ohun ọ̀sìn wọn, wọ́n sì fi ìparun ńlá pa wọ́n. Dafidi sì gba àwọn ará Keila sílẹ̀.
And he went David (and men his *Q(K)*) Keilah and he fought against the Philistines and he drove away livestock their and he defeated them a defeat great and he delivered David [the] inhabitants of Keilah.
6 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí Abiatari ọmọ Ahimeleki fi sá tọ Dafidi lọ ní Keila, ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ òun pẹ̀lú efodu kan lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀.
And it was when fled Abiathar [the] son of Ahimelech to David Keilah an ephod it came down in hand his.
7 A sì sọ fún Saulu pé Dafidi wá sí Keila. Saulu sì wí pé, “Ọlọ́run ti fi í lé mi lọ́wọ́; nítorí tí ó ti sé ara rẹ̀ mọ́ ní ti wíwá tí ó wá sí ìlú tí ó ní ìlẹ̀kùn àti kẹrẹ.”
And it was told to Saul that he had gone David Keilah and he said Saul he has alienated him God in hand my for he has shut himself up by going in a city of doors and bar[s].
8 Saulu sì pe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà jọ sí ogun, láti sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Keila, láti ká Dafidi mọ́ àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀.
And he summoned Saul all the people for battle to go down Keilah to lay siege against David and against men his.
9 Dafidi sì mọ̀ pé Saulu ti gbèrò búburú sí òun; ó sì wí fún Abiatari àlùfáà náà pé, “Mú efodu náà wá níhìn-ín yìí!”
And he knew David that on him Saul [was] plotting evil and he said to Abiathar the priest bring near! the ephod.
10 Dafidi sì wí pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, lóòótọ́ ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ti gbọ́ pé Saulu ń wá ọ̀nà láti wá sí Keila, láti wá fọ́ ìlú náà nítorí mi.
And he said David O Yahweh [the] God of Israel certainly he has heard servant your that [is] seeking Saul to come to Keilah to destroy the city because of me.
11 Àwọn àgbà ìlú Keila yóò fi mí lé e lọ́wọ́ bí? Saulu yóò ha sọ̀kalẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ti gbọ́ bí?” Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, wí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ. Olúwa sì wí pé, “Yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá.”
¿ Will they deliver up me [the] citizens of Keilah in hand his ¿ will he come down Saul just as he has heard servant your O Yahweh [the] God of Israel tell please to servant your. And he said Yahweh he will come down.
12 Dafidi sì wí pé, “Àwọn àgbà ìlú Keila yóò fi èmi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin mi lé Saulu lọ́wọ́ bí?” Olúwa sì wí pé, “Wọn ó fi ọ́ lé wọn lọ́wọ́.”
And he said David ¿ will they deliver up [the] citizens of Keilah me and men my in [the] hand of Saul and he said Yahweh they will deliver [you] up.
13 Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ tí wọ́n tó ẹgbẹ̀ta ènìyàn sì dìde, wọ́n lọ kúrò ní Keila, wọ́n sì lọ sí ibikíbi tí wọ́n lè rìn lọ. A sì wí fún Saulu pé, “Dafidi ti sá kúrò ní Keila; kò sì lọ sí Keila mọ́.”
And he arose David and men his about six hundred man and they went out from Keilah and they went about at where they went about and to Saul it was told that he had escaped David from Keilah and he ceased to go forth.
14 Dafidi sì ń gbé ní aginjù, níbi tí ó ti sá pamọ́ sí, ó sì ń gbé níbi òkè ńlá kan ní aginjù Sifi. Saulu sì ń wá a lójoojúmọ́, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò fi lé e lọ́wọ́.
And he dwelt David in the wilderness in the strongholds and he dwelt in the hill country in [the] wilderness of Ziph and he sought him Saul all the days and not he gave him God in hand his.
15 Nígbà tí Dafidi wà ní Horeṣi ní aginjù Sifi, Dafidi sì rí i pé, Saulu ti jáde láti wá ẹ̀mí òun kiri.
And he saw David that he had come forth Saul to seek life his and David [was] in [the] wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.
16 Jonatani ọmọ Saulu sì dìde, ó sì tọ Dafidi lọ nínú igbó Horeṣi, ó sì gbà á ní ìyànjú nípa ti Ọlọ́run.
And he arose Jonathan [the] son of Saul and he went to David Horesh and he strengthened hand his in God.
17 Òun sì wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù, nítorí tí ọwọ́ Saulu baba mi kì yóò tẹ̀ ọ́. Ìwọ ni yóò jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli, èmi ni yóò sì ṣe ibìkejì rẹ. Saulu baba mi mọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.”
And he said to him may not you be afraid for not it will find you [the] hand of Saul father my and you you will reign over Israel and I I will become to you second in rank and also Saul father my [is] knowing [it is] thus.
18 Àwọn méjèèjì sì ṣe àdéhùn níwájú Olúwa; Dafidi sì jókòó nínú igbó Horeṣi. Jonatani sì lọ sí ilé rẹ̀.
And they made [the] two of them a covenant before Yahweh and he remained David at Horesh and Jonathan he went to house his.
19 Àwọn ará Sifi sì gòkè tọ Saulu wá sí Gibeah, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ṣé Dafidi ti fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́ sọ́dọ̀ wa ní ibi gíga ìsápamọ́sí ní Horeṣi, ní òkè Hakila, tí ó wà níhà gúúsù ti Jeṣimoni.
And they went up Ziphites to Saul Gibeah towards saying ¿ not [is] David hiding himself with us in the strongholds at Horesh on [the] hill of Hakilah which [is] from [the] south of Jeshimon.
20 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, ọba, sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá gẹ́gẹ́ bi gbogbo ìfẹ́ tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ láti sọ̀kalẹ̀: ipa tí àwa ní láti fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
And now to all [the] desire of self your O king to come down come down and [belongs] to us to deliver up him in [the] hand of the king.
21 Saulu sì wí pé, “Alábùkún fún ni ẹ̀yin nípa Olúwa; nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ti káàánú fún mi.
And he said Saul [be] blessed you by Yahweh for you have had compassion on me.
22 Lọ, èmi bẹ̀ yín, ẹ tún múra, kí ẹ sì mọ̀ ki ẹ si rí ibi tí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ gbé wà, àti ẹni tí ó rí níbẹ̀: nítorí tí a ti sọ fún mi pé, ọgbọ́n ni ó ń lò jọjọ.
Go please prepare still and know and see place his where it is foot his who? has he seen him there for someone has said to me certainly he is crafty he.
23 Ẹ sì wò, kí ẹ sì mọ ibi ìsápamọ́ tí ó máa ń sá pamọ́ sí, kí ẹ sì tún padà tọ̀ mí wá, kí èmi lè mọ̀ dájú; èmi ó sì bá yín lọ: yóò sì ṣe bí ó bá wà ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli, èmi ó sì wá a ní àwárí nínú gbogbo ẹgbẹ̀rún Juda!”
And see and know from all the hiding places where he hides himself there and you will return to me to a certain [thing] and I will go with you and it will be if there he [is] in the land and I will search out him among all [the] thousands of Judah.
24 Wọ́n sì dìde, wọ́n sì ṣáájú Saulu lọ sí Sifi, ṣùgbọ́n Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ wà ní aginjù Maoni, ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ níhà gúúsù ti Jeṣimoni.
And they arose and they went Ziph towards before Saul and David and men his [were] in [the] wilderness of Maon in the Arabah to [the] south of Jeshimon.
25 Saulu àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì lọ ń wá a. Wọ́n sì sọ fún Dafidi: ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sí ibi òkúta kan, ó sì jókòó ní aginjù ti Maoni. Saulu sì gbọ́, ó sì lépa Dafidi ní aginjù Maoni.
And he went Saul and men his to seek [him] and people told to David and he went down the rock and he remained in [the] wilderness of Maon and he heard Saul and he pursued after David [the] wilderness of Maon.
26 Saulu sì ń rin apá kan òkè kan, Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ ní apá kejì òkè náà. Dafidi sì yára láti sá kúrò níwájú Saulu; nítorí pé Saulu àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ ti rọ̀gbà yí Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ ká láti mú wọn.
And he went Saul from [the] side of the mountain from this and David and men his [were] from [the] side of the mountain from this and he was David hurrying away to go from before Saul and Saul and men his [were] surrounding David and men his to catch them.
27 Ṣùgbọ́n oníṣẹ́ kan sì tọ Saulu wá ó sì wí pé, “Ìwọ yára kí o sì wá, nítorí tí àwọn Filistini ti gbé ogun ti ilẹ̀ wa.”
And a messenger he came to Saul saying make haste! and come! for they have made a raid [the] Philistines on the land.
28 Saulu sì padà kúrò ní lílépa Dafidi, ó sì lọ pàdé àwọn Filistini nítorí náà ni wọ́n sì ṣe ń pe ibẹ̀ náà ní Selahamalekoti (èyí tí ó túmọ̀ sí “Òkúta Ìpinyà”).
And he turned back Saul from pursuing after David and he went to meet [the] Philistines there-fore people called the place that Sela Hammahlekoth.
29 Dafidi sì gòkè láti ibẹ̀ lọ, ó sì jókòó níbi tí ó sá pamọ́ sí ní En-Gedi.
And he went up David from there and he dwelt in [the] strongholds of En Gedi.
