1And Samuel died; and all the Israelites were gathered together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
1 Samuwila bu. Israyla kulu binde margu k'a baray k'a fiji nga windo ra Rama. Dawda mo tun ka zulli ka koy Paran saajo ra.
2And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
2 Boro fo go no Mawon ra, kaŋ a arzaka go Karmel ra. Bora din mo boro beeri no gumo. A gonda feeji zambar hinza, da hincin zambar fo. A ga nga feejey hamney hõse Karmel ra.
3Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and she was a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.
3 Bora binde maa ga ti Nabal. A wando maa Abigayil. Nga din, waybora binde, fahamante no, kaŋ ga sogo, amma albora wo kosongukoy no, kaŋ ga goy laalo te. Nga mo Kaleb dumo boro no.
4And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal did shear his sheep.
4 Kala Dawda go saajo ra. A maa baaru kaŋ i ne Nabal goono ga nga feejey hõse.
5And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:
5 Dawda binde na gaabikooni way kaa nga borey ra ka donton. Dawda ne mo gaabikooney din se: «Wa koy Karmel haray. Araŋ ma koy Nabal do k'a fo ay se.
6And thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be both to thee, and peace be to thine house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.
6 Yaa no araŋ ga ne a se: ‹Wa fofo. Baani ma bara ni gaa, baani ma bara ni windo gaa, baani ma bara mo hay kulu kaŋ ni gonda gaa.
7And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.
7 Kala sohõ kaŋ ay maa ni gonda feeji hamni hõsekoyaŋ. Ni hawjiyey gay iri do, iri mana hay kulu te i se, hay kulu mana daray i se mo, alwaatey kulu kaŋ i go Karmel ra.
8Ask thy young men, and they will show thee. Wherefore let the young men find favor in thine eyes: for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thine hand unto thy servants, and to thy son David.
8 Ma ni arwasey hã, i ga ci ni se. Woodin se ni ma naŋ gaabikooney wo ma du gaakuri ni jine, zama iri kaa da saaya. Ay ga ŋwaaray, hay kulu kaŋ cine no kaŋ ni kambe gar, kala ni m'a no ni bannyey se, hala nda ni izo Dawda mo se.› »
9And when David's young men came, they spake to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
9 Waato kaŋ Dawda wane gaabikooney din kaa ka to Nabal do, i salaŋ d'a sanney wo kulu boŋ Dawda maa ra ka ye ka dangay.
10And Nabal answered David's servants, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there be many servants now a days that break away every man from his master.
10 Nabal tu Dawda bannyey se ka ne: «May ga ti Dawda? May ga ti Yasse ize? Bannya boobo go no alwaato wo ra kaŋ yaŋ goono ga zuru ngey koyey se.
11Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men, whom I know not whence they be?
11 Ay m'ay ŋwaaro da ay haŋyaŋ haro sambu, da hamo kaŋ ay dumbu feeji hamni hõsekoy se, ay m'i no boroyaŋ se kaŋ ay mana bay naŋ kaŋ no i fun?»
12So David's young men turned their way, and went again, and came and told him all those sayings.
12 Dawda gaabikooney din binde na banda bare ka ngey fondo gana ka ye. I kaa ka sanney wo kulu ci Dawda se.
13And David said unto his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the stuff.
13 Dawda ne nga borey se: «Boro fo kulu ma nga takuba koto.» Kala i boro fo kulu na nga takuba koto. Dawda mo na nga takuba koto. Alboro zangu taaci cine na Dawda gana, zangu hinka cine mo goro dunkayo do.
14But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed on them.
14 Amma arwasey ra afo ci Nabal wande Abigayil se ka ne: «A go, Dawda na diyayaŋ donton. I fun saajo ra ka kaa k'iri jine bora fo. A binde salaŋ i se da futay.
15But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we were conversant with them, when we were in the fields:
15 Amma borey din na gomni boobo te iri se. Iri mana kayna haŋ, hay kulu mo mana daray iri se, alwaatey kulu kaŋ iri nd'ey gonda sabayaŋ, waato kaŋ iri go saajo ra.
16They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
16 Ngey no ka ciya iri se kosaray cin nda zaari, alwaatey kulu kaŋ iri go i banda ga feeji kuru.
17Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.
17 Day sohõ ni ma bay, ma faham mo ka boori nda haŋ kaŋ ni ga te. Kaŋ se i na hasaraw soola iri koyo se, hala nda a windo kulu mo se. Zama Nabal wo boro yaamo no, hal a si du ka te boro ma salaŋ d'a.»
18Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and an hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.
18 Abigayil to ka maa woodin, a waasu ka buuru kunkuni zangu hinka sambu, da duvan* humbur hinka, da feeji gu kaŋ yaŋ i soola, da jirmay gumbutu gu, da reyzin* fafa zangu, da jeejay takula zangu hinka. A n'i jeje farkayyaŋ gaa.
19And she said unto her servants, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she told not her husband Nabal.
19 A ne nga bannyey se: «Wa furo jine, ay mo go araŋ banda.» Amma a mana ci nga kurnyo Nabal se bo.
20And it was so, as she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert on the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them.
20 A ciya binde kaŋ a goono ga dira nga farka boŋ, a kaa susubay nda hinay tondo fondo tuganta gaa, kala Dawda nda nga borey go ga zulli a do haray ka kubay d'a. I kubay da care.
21Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good.
21 A go mo, Dawda jin ka ne: «Wiiza! Yaamo no haggoyyaŋo kulu kaŋ ay na hay kulu kaŋ go boro wo se haggoy d'a saajo ra, hala hay kulu si no kaŋ daray a se a jinayey ra. A na gomni bana ay se mo da laala.
22So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
22 Irikoy ma ay, Dawda, laali da day ay na baa zanka alboro ize folloŋ cindi a se da fundi ne ka guna mo boyaŋ, hay kulu kaŋ ga ti a wane ra.»
23And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground,
23 Waato kaŋ Abigayil di Dawda, a cahã ka zumbu ka fun nga farka boŋ ka ye ganda nga moyduma boŋ Dawda jine. A sumbal hala ganda.
24And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, my lord, upon me let this iniquity be: and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.
24 A ye ganda Dawda cey do haray ka ne: «Ya ay jina bora, taalo din, ay boŋ no a bara, ay boŋ no! Ay ga ni ŋwaaray mo, ma naŋ ni koŋŋa ma salaŋ ni hangey ra. Ma maa ni koŋŋa sanney mo.
25Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, even Nabal: for as his name is, so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him: but I thine handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
25 Ya ay jine bora, ay ga ni ŋwaaray no, ma si saal boro yaama din, danga Nabal nooya. Zama sanda mate kaŋ a maa bara din, yaadin no a bara nga mo. Nabal ga ti a maa, saamotaray no ka bara a gaa. Amma ay wo, ni koŋŋa, ay mana di arwasey kaŋ yaŋ ni donton bo, ya ay jine bora.
26Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from coming to shed blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
26 Sohõ binde, ya ay jine bora, ay ze da Rabbi fundikoono da ni fundo mo, za kaŋ Rabbi na ni ganji ni ma koy ka kuri mun, ka bana mo da ni kamba, naŋ borey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga ay jine bora fundo ceeci nda laala ma ciya sanda Nabal.
27And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
27 Guna me, albarka hari woone kaŋ ay, ni koŋŋa kande nin, ay jine bora se, i m'a no arwasey se kaŋ yaŋ go nin, ay jina bora banda.
28I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days.
28 Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma ni koŋŋa taaley yaafa, zama haciika Rabbi g'ay jine bora dumo tabbatandi, zama ay jina bora goono ga Rabbi wongo tangami te no. I si hari laalo gar ni do mo ni jirbey kulu ra.
29Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
29 Koyne, baa boro tun nga ma ni gana ka gaaray no, a goono ga ni fundo ceeci, kulu nda yaadin i g'ay jine bora fundo daabu kunsumi fo ra Rabbi ni Irikoyo banda. Ni ibarey fundey mo, a g'i catu, sanda finga-finga tafayyaŋo ra.
30And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
30 A ga ciya mo, waato kaŋ Rabbi jin ka gomney kulu te nin, ay jine bora se kaŋ yaŋ a ci ni boŋ, hal a na ni ciya Israyla bonkooni,
31That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offense of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
31 woone ma si ciya ay jine bora se bine saray wala ye-ka-tuubi yaŋ hari, a ma kuri mun yaamo, a ma bana nga boŋ se mo. Hala hõ koyne, waato kaŋ Rabbi na gomni te ay jine bora se, saaya din kala ni ma fongu ay, ni koŋŋa gaa.»
32And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:
32 Dawda ne Abigayil se: «I ma Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo sifa, nga kaŋ na ni donton hunkuna ni m'ay kubay se.
33And blessed be thy advice, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
33 Albarkante no ni laakalo, albarkante no ni mo kaŋ ni n'ay ganji ay ma kuri mun, ay ma bana ay boŋ se d'ay kambe.
34For in very deed, as the LORD God of Israel liveth, which hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
34 Zama haciika ay ze da Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo fundo, nga kaŋ n'ay ganji ay ma hasaraw te ni se, da manti kaŋ ni cahã ka kaa k'ay kubay, haciika doŋ ay si zanka alboro baa afolloŋ cindi Nabal se hala mo ga bo.»
35So David received of her hand that which she had brought him, and said unto her, Go up in peace to thine house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.
35 Dawda binde na hayey kaŋ waybora kande a se yaŋ din ta a kambe ra. A ne a se: «Ma to ni kwaara baani samay. A go, ay hangan ni sanno se, ay na ni beera guna mo.»
36And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken: wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
36 Kala Abigayil ye ka kaa Nabal do. A go mo ga batu te nga windo ra, danga day bonkooni batu. Nabal bina mo goono ga maa kaani a ra, zama a go ga bugu gumo. Woodin se wando mana hay kulu ci a se, hala iboobo wala ikayna, kala mo boyaŋ.
37But it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, and his wife had told him these things, that his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
37 I go no, kaŋ susuba to, waato kaŋ duvaŋo na Nabal taŋ, kal a wando na hayey din ci a se. A bina binde bu a ra. Gaahamo sandi danga tondi cine.
38And it came to pass about ten days after, that the LORD smote Nabal, that he died.
38 Kaŋ i te sanda jirbi way cine, kala Rabbi na Nabal kar kal a bu.
39And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the LORD, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil: for the LORD hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.
39 Waato kaŋ Dawda maa baaru kaŋ i ne Nabal bu, a ne: «I ma Rabbi sifa, nga kaŋ na donda-caray kaa ay se Nabal gaa. A na ay, nga bannya ganji goy laalo teeyaŋ, zama Rabbi na Nabal laala yeti a boŋ.» Dawda binde donton ka Abigayil sanni te, zama nga m'a hiiji.
40And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake unto her, saying, David sent us unto thee, to take thee to him to wife.
40 Waato kaŋ Dawda tamey kaa Abigayil do Karmel, i salaŋ d'a ka ne: «Dawda no k'iri donton ni gaa, iri ma ni sambu ka kande a se, ni ma ciya a wande.»
41And she arose, and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thine handmaid be a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
41 Kal a tun ka gurfa ka konda nga moyduma hala ganda ka ne: «Ni koŋŋa go, koŋŋa kayna no kaŋ g'ay jina bora bannyey ce nyun.»
42And Abigail hasted, and arose and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that went after her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
42 Abigayil binde cahã ka tun ka kaaru farka boŋ, nga nda koŋŋa kayna gu kaŋ yaŋ n'a gana. A na Dawda diyey gana ka ciya Dawda wande.
43David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they were also both of them his wives.
43 Dawda na Ahinowam, Yezreyel waybora mo hiiji. I boro hinka kulu ciya a wandeyaŋ.
44But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, which was of Gallim.
44 Amma Sawulu jin ka nga ize way, Mikal, Dawda wando, no Palti Layis, Gallim bora izo se.
