1 Samuel 27
1 And David says to his heart, “Now I am consumed by the hand of Saul one day; there is nothing better for me than that I diligently escape to the land of the Philistines, and Saul has been despairing of me—of seeking me anymore in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.”
David el sifacna nunku insial, “Sie len Saul el ac mau uniyuwi. Wona nga in kaingla nu Philistia, na Saul el ac tia sifil sukyu in facl Israel, ac nga fah moul in misla.”
2 And David rises, and passes over, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, to Achish son of Maoch king of Gath;
Ke ma inge, David ac mwet onfoko lal elos tuyak ac som nu yorol Achish, wen natul Maoch, su tokosra fin acn Gath.
3 and David dwells with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each one with his household, [even] David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelitess.
David ac mwet lal wi sou lalos, elos oakwuki muta in facl Gath. El us mutan luo kial welul: Ahinoam mutan Jezreel se, ac Abigail mutan Carmel se su katinmas kial Nabal.
4 And it is declared to Saul that David has fled to Gath, and he has not added to seek him anymore.
Ke Saul el lohng lah David el kaingla nu Gath, el tila sokol.
5 And David says to Achish, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes, they give a place to me in one of the cities of the field, and I dwell there, indeed, why does your servant dwell in the royal city with you?”
David el fahk nu sel Tokosra Achish, “Fin pwaye lah nga kom kawuk, ase sie siti srisrik nga in muta we. Nga tia enenu nga in wi kom muta in siti lun tokosra.”
6 And Achish gives Ziklag to him in that day, therefore Ziklag has been for the kings of Judah until this day.
Ouinge Tokosra Achish el sang siti srisrik se Ziklag nu sel, ac pa inge sripa se sis acn Ziklag ma na lun tokosra lun mwet Judah nwe misenge.
7 And the number of the days which David has dwelt in the field of the Philistines [is one year] of days and four months;
David el muta in facl lun mwet Philistia malem singoul onkosr.
8 and David and his men go up, and they push toward the Geshurite, and the Gerizite, and the Amalekite (for they are inhabitants of the land from of old), as you come to Shur and to the land of Egypt,
In pulan pacl sac, David ac mwet lal elos mweun lain mwet Geshur, mwet Girzi, ac mwet Amalek. Mwet inge elos nu muta inge in pacl loeloes somla nwe in pacl se inge. David el mweuni acn inge som na nwe sun acn Shur, ac fahla pac nwe Egypt,
9 and David has struck the land, and does not keep alive man and woman, and has taken sheep, and oxen, and donkeys, and camels, and garments, and turns back, and comes to Achish.
ac onela mukul ac mutan, ac sruokya sheep, cow, donkey, camel, ac oayapa nuknuk. Na elos ac folok nu yorol Tokosra Achish,
10 And Achish says, “To where have you pushed today?” And David says, “Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelite, and to the south of the Kenite.”
ac el ac siyuk sel David, “Ku kom som mweun oya misenge?” Ac David el ac fahk nu sel lah elos som layen nu eir in acn Judah, ku el ac fahk mu elos som nwe in facl sin sou lal Jerahmeel, ku nu in facl sin mwet Ken.
11 David keeps alive neither man nor woman, to bring in [word] to Gath, saying, “Lest they declare [it] against us, saying, Thus David has done, and thus [is] his custom all the days that he has dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.”
David el ac onela mwet nukewa, mukul ac mutan. El oru ouinge in mau wangin mwet folok nu Gath ac srumun ma el, ac mwet lal inge, oru uh. David el oru na lumah se inge ke lusen pacl se el muta Philistia ah.
12 And Achish believes in David, saying, “He has made himself utterly abhorred among his people in Israel, and has been for a perpetual servant to me.”
Tuh Tokosra Achish el lulalfongel David, ac el sifacna nunku insial, “David el srungayuk na pwaye sin mwet lal sifacna, mwet Israel. Ke ma inge el ac fah enenu elan kulansupweyu in moul lal nufon.”
