1 Samuel 29

1 Àwọn Filistini sì kó gbogbo ogun wọn jọ sí Afeki: Israẹli sì dó ni ibi ìsun omi tí ó wà ní Jesreeli.

Now the Philistines assembled together all their camps at Aphek: and the Israelites encamped by the spring which is by Yizre'el.

2 Àwọn ìjòyè Filistini sì kọjá ní ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún àti lẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún; Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Akiṣi sì kẹ́yìn.

And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands; but David and his men passed on at the last with Achish.

3 Àwọn ìjòyè Filistini sì béèrè wí pé, “Kín ni àwọn Heberu ń ṣe níhìn-ín yìí?” Akiṣi sì wí fún àwọn ìjòyè Filistini pé “Dafidi kọ yìí, ìránṣẹ́ Saulu ọba Israẹli, tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ mi láti ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí tàbí láti ọdún wọ̀nyí, èmi kò ì tì í rí àṣìṣe kan ni ọwọ́ rẹ̀ láti ọjọ́ tí ó ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ mi títí di òní yìí.”

Then said the princes of the Philistines, What are these Hebrews to do? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, Behold, this is David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who hath been with me already a year, or even years, and I have not found the least in him [to blame] from the day of his joining [me] until this day?

4 Àwọn ìjòyè Filistini sì bínú sí i; àwọn ìjòyè Filistini sì wí fún un pé, “Jẹ́ kí ọkùnrin yìí padà kí ó sì lọ sí ipò rẹ̀ tí ó fi fún un, kí ó má sì jẹ́ kí ó bá wa sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ogun, kí ó má ba à jásí ọ̀tá fún wa ni ogun, kín ni òun ó fi ba olúwa rẹ̀ làjà, orí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí kọ́?

And the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Cause this man to go back, that he may return to his place whither thou hast assigned him; but he shall not go down with us to the battle, that he may not become an adversary to us in the battle; for wherewith could this person reconcile himself unto his master? is it not by means of the heads of these men?

5 Ṣé èyí ni Dafidi tiwọn torí rẹ̀ gberin ara wọn nínú ijó wí pé, “‘Saulu pa ẹgbẹ̀rún rẹ̀, Dafidi si pa ẹgbẹgbàarùn-ún tirẹ̀.’”

Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in the dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

6 Akiṣi sì pe Dafidi, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ láààyè, ìwọ jẹ́ olóòótọ́ àti ẹni ìwà rere lójú mi, ní àlọ rẹ àti ààbọ̀ rẹ pẹ̀lú mi ní ogun: nítorí pé èmi ko tí ì ri búburú kan lọ́wọ́ rẹ́ láti ọjọ́ ti ìwọ ti tọ̀ mí wá, títí o fi dì òní yìí ṣùgbọ́n lójú àwọn ìjòyè, ìwọ kò ṣe ẹni tí ó tọ́.

Then did Achish call David, and say unto him, As the Lord liveth, [I declare] that thou art upright, and that thy going out and thy coming in with me in the camp is good in my eyes; for I have not found in thee any evil from the day of thy coming unto me until this day; nevertheless in the eyes of the lords thou art not good.

7 Ǹjẹ́ yípadà kí o sì máa lọ ní àlàáfíà, kí ìwọ má ṣe bà àwọn Filistini nínú jẹ́.”

And now return, and go in peace, that thou mayest not do any evil in the eyes of the lords of the Philistines.

8 Dafidi sì wí fún Akiṣi pé, “Kín ni èmi ṣe? Kín ni ìwọ sì rí lọ́wọ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ láti ọjọ́ ti èmi ti ń gbé níwájú rẹ títí di òní yìí, tí èmi kì yóò fi lọ bá àwọn ọ̀tá ọba jà.”

And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant from the day that I have been before thee, until this day, that I shall not go to fight against the enemies of my Lord the king?

9 Akiṣi sì dáhùn, ó sì wí fún Dafidi pé, “Èmi mọ̀ pé ìwọ ṣe ẹni rere lójú mi, bi angẹli Ọlọ́run; ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìjòyè Filistini wí pé, ‘Òun kì yóò bá wa lọ sí ogun.’

And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art good in my eyes, as an angel of God; nevertheless, the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.

10 Ǹjẹ́, nísinsin yìí dìde ní òwúrọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ olúwa rẹ tí ó bá ọ wá, ki ẹ si dìde ní òwúrọ̀ nígbà tí ilẹ̀ bá mọ́ kí ẹ sì máa lọ.”

And now rise up early in the morning with the servants of thy master that are come with thee: and rise then up early in the morning, and when ye have light, go away.

11 Dafidi àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì dìde ní òwúrọ̀ láti padà lọ sí ilẹ̀ àwọn Filistini. Àwọn Filistini sì gòkè lọ sí Jesreeli.

And David and his men rose up early to go away in the morning, to return unto the land of the Philistines; but the Philistines went up to Yizre'el.
