1And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.
1 Sawulu salaŋ da nga ize aro Yonata da nga tamey kulu ka ne i ma Dawda wi.
2But Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
2 Amma Sawulu ize Yonata ga maa Dawda kaani gumo. Yonata binde ci Dawda se ka ne: «Ay baaba Sawulu goono ga ceeci nga ma ni wi. Sohõ binde ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma laakal da ni boŋ suba susubay. Ma goro tuguyaŋ do ka tugu.
3And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
3 Ay mo ga koy ka kay ay baaba jarga batama ra, naŋ kaŋ ni go, ay ma salaŋ d'ay baaba ni boŋ. D'ay di alhaali fo no ay ga ci ni se.»
4And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:
4 Kala Yonata na gomni sanni te nga baabo Sawulu se Dawda boŋ ka ne a se: «Bonkoono ma si zunubi te nga tamo Dawda se, zama nga din mana zunubi te ni se. A goyey mo goy hanno yaŋ no ni se.
5For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
5 Zama a na nga fundo no ka Filistanca din wi. Rabbi mo na zaama bambata te Israyla kulu se. Ni di, ni farhã mo. Ifo se binde kaŋ ni ga boro kaŋ sinda taali kuri alhakku sambu, ni ma Dawda wi sabaabu kulu si?»
6And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul sware, As the LORD liveth, he shall not be slain.
6 Sawulu binde hangan Yonata sanno se. Sawulu ze da Rabbi fundikoono ka ne i s'a wi.
7And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
7 Yonata binde na Dawda ce ka hayey wo kulu cabe a se. Yonata kande Dawda Sawulu do, nga mo goro a do sanda waato.
8And there was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and they fled from him.
8 Wongu ye ka tun koyne. Dawda mo fatta ka wongu nda Filistancey. A n'i wi nda wiyaŋ bambata, i zuru a jine mo.
9And the evil spirit from the LORD was upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his javelin in his hand: and David played with his hand.
9 Biya laalo mo kaŋ fun Rabbi do go Sawulu gaa kaŋ a goono ga goro nga windo ra nda nga yaajo nga kambe ra. Dawda mo goono ga moolo kar da nga kamba.
10And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin: but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
10 Sawulu ceeci nga ma Dawda hay hala nga m'a korab ka ta cinaro gaa. Amma a mulay ka fun Sawulu jine, yaajo koy ka du cinaro. Cino din ra mo Dawda zuru ka yana.
11Saul also sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David's wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.
11 Sawulu binde na diyayaŋ donton i ma koy Dawda kwaara k'a kosaray, i m'a wi susubay ra. Dawda wande Mikal mo ci Dawda se ka ne: «Da ni mana yana nda ni fundo hunkuna cino wo ra, suba i ga ni wi.»
12So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
12 Mikal binde na Dawda zure fu fune gaa k'a zumandi, nga mo zuru ka yana.
13And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster, and covered it with a cloth.
13 Mikal na tooru fo sambu ka jisi daari boŋ. A na hincin hamni boŋ-dake daŋ boŋo do haray, k'a daabu nda bankaaray.
14And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
14 Waato kaŋ Sawulu na diyey donton zama i ma Dawda di, kala wando ne: «A goono ga jante no.»
15And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
15 Sawulu binde na diyayaŋ donton i ma Dawda guna. A ne: «Wa kand'a nga daarijo boŋ neewo ay do zama ay m'a wi.»
16And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for his bolster.
16 Kaŋ diyey furo, wiiza tooro no dima boŋ, da hincin hamni boŋ-dake boŋo do haray!
17And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?
17 Sawulu ne Mikal se: «Ifo se no ni n'ay fafagu ya-cine? Ni naŋ ay ibaro wo ma koy hal a ma yana.» Mikal tu Sawulu se ka ne: «A ne ay se: ‹Naŋ ay ma koy. Ifo se no ay ga ni wi?› »
18So David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
18 Amma Dawda zuru ka yana. A kaa Samuwila do Rama ka ci a se hay kulu kaŋ Sawulu te nga se. Nga nda Samuwila mo koy ka goro Nayot ra.
19And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.
19 I ci Sawulu se ka ne: «Dawda neeya Nayot, Rama wano ra.»
20And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
20 Sawulu binde na diyayaŋ donton i ma Dawda di. Ngey mo, waato kaŋ i di annabey marga goono ga annabitaray te, Samuwila mo go g'i dabari, kala Irikoy Biya zumbu Sawulu diyey boŋ. Ngey mo na annabitaray te.
21And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
21 Waato kaŋ i ci Sawulu se, kal a na diya fooyaŋ mo donton. Ngey mo na annabitaray te. Sawulu na diyayaŋ donton hala sorro hinzanta. Ngey mo na annabitaray te.
22Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
22 Gaa no nga bumbo koy Rama. A kaa day beero me gaa kaŋ go Seku. A hã mo ka ne: «Man Samuwila nda Dawda go?» Boro fo ne: «Ngey nooya Nayot, Rama wano ra.»
23And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah: and the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
23 Kal a bisa ka koy noodin Nayot, Rama wano do. Nga mo, Irikoy Biya zumbu a boŋ. A bisa jina, a goono ga annabitaray te, kal a kaa ka to Nayot, Rama wano.
24And he stripped off his clothes also, and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Wherefore they say, Is Saul also among the prophets?
24 A na nga bankaara kaa mo ka annabitaray te Samuwila jine ka kani gaa-koonu zaaro me-a-me, da cino kulu mo. Woodin se no i ne: «Sawulu mo go annabey ra no?»
