Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1And David said in his heart: I shall gone day or other fall into the hands of Saul: is it not better for me to flee, and to be saved in the land of the Philistines, that Saul may despair of me, and cease to seek me in all the coasts of Israel? I will flee then out of his hands.
1David 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.”
2And David arose and went away, both he and the six hundred men that were with him, to Achis the son of Maoch, king of Geth.
2Ke ma inge, David ac mwet onfoko lal elos tuyak ac som nu yorol Achish, wen natul Maoch, su tokosra fin acn Gath.
3And David dwelt with Achis at Geth, he and his men: every man with his household, and David with his two wives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
3David 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.
4And it was told Saul that David was fled to Geth, and he sought no more after him.
4Ke Saul el lohng lah David el kaingla nu Gath, el tila sokol.
5And David said to Achis: If I have found favour in thy sight, let a place be given me in one of the cities of this country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?
5David 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.”
6Then Achis gave him Siceleg that day: for which reason Siceleg belongeth to the kings of Juda unto this day.
6Ouinge 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.
7And the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines, was four months.
7David el muta in facl lun mwet Philistia malem singoul onkosr.
8And David and his men went up, and pillaged Gessuri, and Gerzi, and the Amalecites: for these were of old the inhabitants of the countries, as men go to Sur, even to the land of Egypt.
8In 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,
9And David wasted all the land, and left neither man nor woman alive: and took away the sheep and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achis.
9ac onela mukul ac mutan, ac sruokya sheep, cow, donkey, camel, ac oayapa nuknuk. Na elos ac folok nu yorol Tokosra Achish,
10And Achis said to him: Whom hast thou gone against today? David answered: Against the south of Juda, and against the south of Jerameel, and against the south of Ceni.
10ac 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.
11And David saved neither man nor woman, neither brought he any of them to Geth, saying: Lest they should speak against us. So did David, and such was his proceeding all the days that he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.
11David 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.
12And Achis believed David, saying: He hath done much harm to his people Israel: therefore he shall be my servant for ever.
12Tuh 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.”
