1 Samuel

18

1And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
1 Waato kaŋ a salaŋ Sawulu se ka ban, kala Yonata da Dawda biney ye care gaa. Yonata ba r'a mo sanda nga fundo cine.
2And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
2 Sawulu mo n'a sambu han din hane. A mana naŋ Dawda ma ye nga baabo kwaara koyne.
3Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
3 Saaya din Yonata nda Dawda na sappa te, zama Yonata ga ba r'a sanda nga fundo cine.
4And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
4 Yonata mo na kwaayo kaŋ go nga jinda gaa din foobu ka no Dawda se, da nga bankaarayey hala nda baa nga takuba nda nga birawo da nga guddama.
5And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
5 Dawda ga koy mo nangu kulu kaŋ Sawulu g'a donton. A muraadey mo laakal wane yaŋ no. Sawulu n'a daŋ wongu boro fo yaŋ boŋ. Haya boori mo jama kulu diyaŋ gaa, hala nda Sawulu goy-teerey mo do.
6And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of music.
6 A ciya binde, waato kaŋ i goono ga kaa, kaŋ Dawda ye ka fun Filistancey halaciyaŋo do, kala wayborey fatta Israyla kwaarey kulu ra. I goono ga doon ka gaan, ngey ma bonkoono Sawulu kubay se da can-caŋ da farhã da moolo hamni-hinza-koy yaŋ.
7And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
7 Can-caŋ karyaŋo ra mo, wayborey soobay ka doon care se ka ne: «Sawulu na nga wane zambarey wi, Dawda mo nga zambar-zambarey.»
8And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?
8 Sawulu binde futu gumo. Sanno din n'a bina sara. A ne: «I na Dawda no zambar zambaryaŋ, amma ay wo zambaryaŋ hinne no i n'ay no. Ifo ka cindi a se koyne sohõ kala koytaray?»
9And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
9 Han din hane ka koy jina binde, Sawulu na Dawda gullu.
10And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.
10 A suba kala biya laalo fo fun Irikoy do ka zumbu Sawulu boŋ da gaabi gumo, hal a follo nga windo bindi ra. Amma Dawda soobay ka moolo kar da nga kambe mate kaŋ a doona ka te. Sawulu mo go nda nga yaajo ga gaay nga kambe ra.
11And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice.
11 Kala Sawulu na Dawda hay ka hatta nda yaajo, zama a ne: «Ay ga Dawda hay no k'a korab k'a ta cinaro gaa.» Dawda mo mulay a jine sorro hinka.
12And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul.
12 Sawulu go ga humburu Dawda zama Rabbi go a banda, a fay da Sawulu mo.
13Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
13 Woodin sabbay se no Sawulu n'a kaa nga do k'a daŋ a ma ciya sooje zambar jine boro. A goono ga koy-da-ye te jama jine.
14And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.
14 Dawda mo na laakal cabe nga muraadey kulu ra. Rabbi mo go a banda.
15Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
15 Waato kaŋ Sawulu faham kaŋ Dawda goono ga laakal cabe gumo, kal a humbur'a.
16But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.
16 Amma Israyla nda Yahuda kulu ga ba Dawda gumo, zama a goono ga koy-da-ye te i jine.
17And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
17 Kala Sawulu ne Dawda se: «Guna, ay ize way beero neeya, Merab. Ay ga ni no nd'a a ma ciya ni wande. Kala ni ma ciya ize yaarukom ay se, ma Rabbi tangamey te.» Zama Sawulu goono ga ne: «Ay wo bumbo, ay s'ay kambe dake a gaa, kala day Filistancey kambe ma te d'a.»
18And David said unto Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law to the king?
18 Dawda ne Sawulu se: «May ci ay? Ifo no ka bara ay se mo, ifo no ay baaba windo mo Israyla ra, hala ay ma ciya bonkoono anzuray?»
19But it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given unto Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
19 Amma a ciya, saaya kaŋ cine i ga hima ka Merab, Sawulu ize no Dawda se, kal a go, i n'a hiijandi Adriyel, Meholati bora se.
20And Michal Saul's daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
20 Amma Sawulu ize wayo kaŋ se i ga ne Mikal ga ba Dawda. I ci Sawulu se, haya kaan a se mo.
21And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son in law in the one of the twain.
21 Sawulu mo ne: «Ay g'a no nd'a, a ma ciya a se hirrimi, Filistancey kambe mo ga gaaba nd'a.» Woodin se no Sawulu ne Dawda se: «Hunkuna sorro hinkante neeya kaŋ ni ga ciya ay anzuray.»
22And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son in law.
22 Sawulu na nga goy-teerey lordi mo ka ne: «Wa salaŋ nda Dawda tuguyaŋ ra, ka ne: ‹Guna, bonkoono ga farhã nda nin, a goy-teerey kulu mo ga ba nin. A binde sohõ ni ma ciya bonkoono anzuray.› »
23And Saul's servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be a king's son in law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
23 Sanney din binde bonkoono tamey n'i ci Dawda hangey ra. Amma Dawda ne: «Araŋ wo do haray, hari doogono no boro ma ciya bonkoono anzuray? A go, ay ya talka no, kaŋ sinda beeray mo.»
24And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spake David.
24 Kala Sawulu goy-teerey ne a se: «Sanney wo no Dawda ci.»
25And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but an hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
25 Sawulu mo ne: «Ya-cine no araŋ ga ci Dawda se: ‹Bonkoono si ba hiijay nooru, kala day Filistance zangu fo jofolo kuurey, zama i ma fansa sambu bonkoono ibarey boŋ.› » Amma Sawulu miila no a ma naŋ Dawda ma kaŋ Filistancey kambe ra.
26And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son in law: and the days were not expired.
26 Waato kaŋ goy-teerey na sanni woodin yaŋ ci Dawda se, a kaan Dawda se gumo nga ma ciya bonkoono anzuray. Jirbey binde mana to,
27Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full tale to the king, that he might be the king's son in law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.
27 kala Dawda tun, nga nda nga borey, ka koy ka boro zangu hinka wi Filistancey ra. Dawda kande i jofolo kuurey mo, k'i toonanta kulu no bonkoono se, zama Dawda ma ciya bonkoono anzuray. Sawulu mo na nga ize wayo Mikal no Dawda se zama a ma ciya Dawda wande.
28And Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal Saul's daughter loved him.
28 Sawulu faham mo kaŋ Rabbi go Dawda banda. Mikal, Sawulu ize wayo mo ga ba r'a.
29And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul became David's enemy continually.
29 Sawulu binde go day ga humburu Dawda ka tonton. Sawulu go ga ibaretaray gaay nga nda Dawda game ra waati kulu.
30Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass, after they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by.
30 Saaya din binde Filistancey jine borey fatta. A ciya mo waati kaŋ i ga fatta kulu, kala Dawda ma soobay ka laakal cabe ka bisa Sawulu goy-teerey kulu, kal a maa ciya darza hari gumo.
