Sie Samuel 26

1 Kutu mwet Ziph tuku nu yorol Saul in acn Gibeah, ac fahk nu sel lah David el wikwik oasr Fineol Hachilah, su oan sisken yen mwesis Judea.

And the Ziphites come in unto Saul, at Gibeah, saying, 'Is not David hiding himself in the height of Hachilah, on the front of the desert?'

2 In kitin pacl ah na Saul el tuyak ac eis tolu tausin mwet mweun lun Israel su arulana pulaik, ac som nu yen mwesis in Ziph in sokol David.

And Saul riseth, and goeth down unto the wilderness of Ziph, and with him three thousand men, chosen ones of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.

3 Saul ac mwet lal elos tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos ke sisken inkanek soko oan Fineol Hachilah. David el srakna muta yen mwesis uh, ac ke el lohng lah Saul el tuku sokol,

And Saul encampeth in the height of Hachilah, which [is] on the front of the desert, by the way, and David is abiding in the wilderness, and he seeth that Saul hath come after him in to the wilderness;

4 el supwala mwet kalngeyuk ac elos konauk tuh pwaye, Saul el oasr we.

and David sendeth spies, and knoweth that Saul hath come unto Nachon,

5 In kitin pacl ah, David el som ac konauk acn se ma Saul ac Abner motul we. (Abner el wen natul Ner, ac captain lun mwet mweun lal Saul.) Saul el motul infulwen nien aktuktuk, ac mwet lal elos raunella.

and David riseth, and cometh in unto the place where Saul hath encamped, and David seeth the place where Saul hath lain, and Abner son of Ner, head of his host, and Saul is lying in the path, and the people are encamping round about him.

6 Na David el siyuk sel Ahimelech mwet Hit, ac Abishai su ma wial Joab (nina kialtal pa Zeruiah), ac fahk, “Su kac sumtal ac wiyu som nu nien aktuktuk lal Saul?” Abishai el topuk, “Nga ac wi kom.”

And David answereth and saith unto Ahimelech the Hittite, and unto Abishai son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, 'Who doth go down with me unto Saul, unto the camp?' and Abishai saith, 'I — I go down with thee.'

7 Na in fong sac, David ac Abishai som ac utyak nu nien aktuktuk lal Saul, ac konalak ke el motul infulwen nien aktuktuk uh, ac osra natul ah kasiki oan sisken sifal. Abner ac mwet mweun elos motul raunella.

And David cometh — and Abishai — unto the people by night, and lo, Saul is lying sleeping in the path, and his spear struck into the earth at his pillow, and abner and the people are lying round about him.

8 Ac Abishai el fahk nu sel David, “God El asot mwet lokoalok lom nu inpoum ofong. Lela nga in faksilya inge ke osra natul sifacna. Nga ac faksilya nu infohk uh ke fakfuk sefanna — ac tia enenu in pacl luo!”

And Abishai saith unto David, 'God hath shut up to-day thine enemy into thy hand; and, now, let me smite him, I pray thee, with a spear, even into the earth at once — and I do repeat [it] to him.'

9 Tusruktu David el fahk, “Nik kom akkolukyal! LEUM GOD El ac kai kutena mwet su akkolukye moul lun tokosra se su El sulela.”

And David saith unto Abishai, 'Destroy him not; for who hath put forth his hand against the anointed of Jehovah, and been acquitted?'

10 Na David el sifil fahk, “Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, nga etu tuh LEUM GOD El ac fah sifacna unilya Saul — finne ke misa lal in pacl fal lal, ku ke misa lal in pacl mweun.

And David saith, 'Jehovah liveth; except Jehovah doth smite him, or his day come that he hath died, or into battle he go down, and hath been consumed —

11 LEUM GOD Elan ikolyuwi tuh nga in tia akkolukye moul lun mwet se su El sulela in tokosra! Tari kut eis osra natul, ac sufa in neinyuk kof nimal, ac som.”

far be it from me, by Jehovah, from putting forth my hand against the anointed of Jehovah; and, now, take, I pray thee, the spear which [is] at his pillow, and the cruse of water, and we go away.'

12 Ouinge David el eis osra in fakfuk natul Saul ac sufa in neinyuk kof nimal su oan sisken sifal, na el ac Abishai som. Wangin mwet liyaltal, ku etu ma orek inge. Wangin pac selos ngutalik, mweyen LEUM GOD El oru tuh elos in folosuwosla ke motul lalos.

And David taketh the spear, and the cruse of water at the pillow of Saul, and they go away, and there is none seeing, and there is none knowing, and there is none awaking, for all of them are sleeping, for a deep sleep [from] Jehovah hath fallen upon them.

13 Na David el som tupalla infahlfal uh nu lac eol laco, ac fanyak nu fin tohktok se loes kutu liki acn Saul ac mwet lal uh muta we,

And David passeth over to the other side, and standeth on the top of the hill afar off — great [is] the place between them;

14 ac el wowoyak ac pang nu sin mwet lal Saul ac nu sel Abner. El fahk, “Abner, kom ku in lohngyu?” Na Abner el fahk, “Ku su wowon, oru oaksalak tokosra uh?”

and David calleth unto the people, and unto Abner son of Ner, saying, 'Dost thou not answer, Abner?' and Abner answereth and saith, 'Who [art] thou [who] hast called unto the king?'

15 Ac David el fahk, “Abner, ya tia kom pa mwet se ma pwengpeng emeet fin Israel uh? Na efu ku kom tia karingin tokosra lowos ingan? Oasr mwet se ilyak pianga nu in nien aktuktuk lowos an in tuh uniya leum se lowos an.

And David saith unto Abner, 'Art not thou a man? and who [is] like thee in Israel? but why hast thou not watched over thy lord the king? for one of the people had come in to destroy the king, thy lord.

16 Kom tiana oru kunokon lom, Abner! Nga fulahk ye mutun LEUM GOD moul lah fal kowos nukewa in misa, mweyen kowos tiana karingin leum lowos an, el su sulosolla sin LEUM GOD tuh elan tokosra. Liye, pia osra in fakfuk natul tokosra ah? Ac pia sufa in kof se ma oan sisken sifal ah?”

Not good is this thing which thou hast done; Jehovah liveth, but ye [are] sons of death, in that ye have not watched over your lord, over the anointed of Jehovah; and now, see where the king's spear [is], and the cruse of water which [is] at his bolster.'

17 Saul el akilenak pusracl David, ac el siyuk, “David, wen nutik, ku kom pa ingan?” David el topuk, “Aok, nga pa inge, Leum luk.”

And Saul discerneth the voice of David, and saith, 'Is this thy voice, my son David?' and David saith, 'My voice, my lord, O king!'

18 Na el sifil tafwela ac fahk, “O Leum luk, efu ku kom srakna ukweyu, mwet kulansap lom? Mea nga orala? Ma koluk fuka nga orala?

and he saith, 'Why [is] this — my lord is pursuing after his servant? for what have I done, and what [is] in my hand evil?

19 O tokosra, lohng ma nga fahk inge. Fin LEUM GOD pa pirik kom tuh kom in lainyu, na mwe kisa nu sel ac ku in ekulla nunak lal. A fin mwet pa pirik kom, mwe selnga sin LEUM GOD in oan faclos, ke sripen elos lisyula liki facl sin LEUM GOD, nu in sie facl nga enenu na in alu nu sin god saya we.

And, now, let, I pray thee, my lord the king hear the words of his servant: if Jehovah hath moved thee against me, let Him accept a present; and if the sons of men — cursed [are] they before Jehovah, for they have cast me out to-day from being admitted into the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods.

20 Nikmet lela tuh nga in anwuki in sie facl saya, su loes liki LEUM GOD luk. Efu ku tokosra lun Israel el suk in uniya sie mwet lusrongten oana kuut se? Efu ku el lungse sukyu, oana in won lemnak se pa nga?”

'And now, let not my blood fall to the earth over-against the face of Jehovah, for the king of Israel hath come out to seek one flea, as [one] pursueth the partridge in mountains.'

21 Na Saul el topuk, “Pwaye nga orekma koluk. Foloko, David, wen nutik! Nga ac fah tia sifil akkolukye kom, ke sripen kom tiana eisla moul luk ofong. Nga arulana lalfon, ac ma na koluk se pa nga oru uh!”

And Saul saith, 'I have sinned; turn back, my son David, for I do evil to thee no more, because that my soul hath been precious in thine eyes this day; lo, I have acted foolishly, and do err very greatly.'

22 David el fahk, “Pa inge osra nutum ah, Leum luk. Supwama sie mwet lom ingan in tuku eis.

And David answereth and saith, 'Lo, the king's spear; and let one of the young men pass over, and receive it;

23 LEUM GOD El sang ma lacne nu sin mwet su oaru ac suwoswos. Misenge el eiskomme nu inpouk, tuh nga tia lungse akkolukye kom, mweyen kom pa LEUM GOD El sulela tuh kom in tokosra.

and Jehovah doth turn back to each his righteousness and his faithfulness, in that Jehovah hath given thee to-day into [my] hand, and I have not been willing to put forth my hand against the anointed of Jehovah,

24 In oana ke nga molikomla ac tia unikomi misenge, lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan oru oapana nu sik, ac moliyula liki mwe ongoiya nukewa!”

and lo, as thy soul hath been great this day in mine eyes, so is my soul great in the eyes of Jehovah, and He doth deliver me out of all distress.'

25 Ac Saul el fahk nu sel David, “God Elan akinsewowoye kom, wen nutik! Kom fah kutangla fin ma nukewa kom oru!” Na David el som inkanek lal, ac Saul el folokla nu in acn sel.

And Saul saith unto David, 'Blessed [art] thou, my son David, also working thou dost work, and also prevailing thou dost prevail.' And David goeth on his way, and Saul hath turned back to his place.
