1 Samuel 21
1 David fled from there and went to Nob [city to see] Ahimelech the priest. Ahimelech trembled when he saw David [because he was afraid that something bad had happened]. He said to David, “Why are you alone? Why have no men come with you?”
Unya miadto si David sa Nob aron sa pagpakigkita kang Ahimelek ang pari. Misugat nga nangurog si Ahimelek kang David ug miingon kaniya, “Nganong nag-inusara ka man ug walay kauban?”
2 David [deceived Ahimelech] by replying, “The king sent me. But he does not want anyone to know anything about what he sent me to do. I have told my men where [they should meet me].
Miingon si David kang Ahimelek ang pari, “Gipaanhi ako sa hari sa usa ka tuyo ug misulti kanako, 'Ayaw pahibal-a si bisan kinsa sa bisan unsang butang mahitungod sa tuyo nga gituga ko kanimo.' Gikasabot ko ang batan-ong mga lalaki didto sa usa ka dapit.
3 Now [I want to know], do you have any [food here for me to eat] [IDM]? Could you give me five loaves of bread, or whatever [other food] that you can find?”
Karon unsa man ang anaa sa imong kamot? Hatagi ako ug lima ka buok tinapay, o bisan unsa nga ania dinhi.”
4 The priest answered David, “There is no ordinary bread here, but I have some of the sacred bread [that was placed before Yahweh]. Your men may eat it if they have not slept with [EUP] women [recently].”
Mitubag ang pari kang David ug miingon, “Walay naandan nga tinapay nga ania sa akong kamot, apan adunay balaang tinapay—kon ang mga batan-ong kalalakin-an wala makahilabot ug mga babaye.”
5 David replied, “They have not been near women for many days. I do not allow my men to defile themselves by sleeping with women while they are preparing to fight in battles. They must continue to keep themselves acceptable to God when they are on ordinary trips, and [today they have kept themselves acceptable to God] because now we are doing something very special/important.”
Gitubag ni David ang pari, “Ang tinuod gipahilayo kanamo ang mga babaye sa milabay nga tulo na ka adlaw, sama sa naandan sa dihang molakaw ako. Ang mga butang nga iya sa kalalakin-an gipahilayo bisan gani sa yanong mga buluhaton. Labi na gayod karong adlawa naglikay sila!”
6 The only bread that the priest had was the sacred bread that had been placed in Yahweh’s presence [in the Sacred tent]. So the priest gave David some of that bread. On that day the priest had taken those loaves from the table and replaced them with (fresh/newly baked) loaves.
Busa gihatagan siya sa pari ug tinapay nga linain. Kay wala nay laing tinapay ang anaa didto gawas sa tinapay diha sa atubangan, nga gikuha gikan sa atubangan ni Yahweh, aron nga kapulihan ug init nga tinapay sa adlaw nga kuhaon kini.
7 It happened that Doeg, from the Edom people-group, was there on that day to make himself acceptable to Yahweh, [and he saw what Ahimelech did]. He was one of Saul’s officials and the leader of Saul’s shepherds.
Karon ang usa sa mga sulugoon ni Saul atua didto nianang adlawa, nga nagpabilin sa atubangan ni Yahweh. Siya mao si Doeg nga taga-Edomea, ang pangulo sa tigbantay sa mga kahayopan ni Saul.
8 David asked Ahimelech, “Do you have a spear or a sword [that I could use]? The king [appointed us to do] this task [and told us to leave] immediately, so I did not have time to bring any weapons.”
Miingon si David kang Ahimelek, “Aduna bay bangkaw o espada nga anaa kanimo? Kay wala ko madala ang akong espada ni ang akong mga hinagiban, tungod kay dinalian ang buluhaton sa hari.”
9 Ahimelech replied, “I have only the sword that belonged to Goliath [the giant] from the Philistia people-group whom you killed in Elah Valley. It is wrapped in a cloth, and is behind the sacred vest [in the Sacred Tent]. If you want it, take it, because I have no other [weapon] here.” David replied, “Truly, there is no other sword that is [as good] as that one! Give it to me.”
Miingon ang pari, “Ania dinhi ang espada ni Goliat ang Filistihanon nga imong gipatay didto sa walog sa Ela, ania giputos ug panapton luyo sa ephod. Kon buot nimo kanang kuhaon, kuhaa, kay walay laing hinagiban dinhi.” Miingon si David, “Wala na gayoy laing espada nga sama niana; ihatag kini kanako.”
10 [So Ahimelech gave it to him], and David left there. He [and his men] and went to Gath [city in the Philistia region], to stay with King Achish.
Mibarog si David ug milikay nianang adlawa gikan kang Saul ug miadto kang Akis, ang hari sa Gat.
11 But the officers of King Achish [objected to David being there. They] said to King Achish, “This man is [RHQ] David, the king of Israel! He is the one [RHQ] whom [our enemies], the [Israeli] people, [honored by] dancing and singing, ‘Saul has killed thousands [of his enemies], but David has killed tens of thousands of them!’”
Ang mga sulugoon ni Akis miingon kaniya, “Dili ba mao man kini si David, ang hari niining dapita? Dili ba nanag-awit man inubanan sa panagsayaw ang tagsatagsa kanila mahitungod kaniya, 'Napatay ni Saul ang 1, 000, ug 10, 000 kang David?'”
12 David heard what those men were saying, so he was afraid of [what] King Achish [might do to him].
Ug kining mga pulonga gikinasingkasing ni David ug nahadlok pag-ayo kang Akis, ang hari sa Gat.
13 So he pretended that he was insane. He started scratching on the gates [of the city] and allowing his saliva to run down his beard.
Giusab niya ang iyang panlihok sa ilang atubangan ug nagpabuangbuang didto sa ilang mga kamot; gipatikan niya ang mga pultahan sa ganghaan ug gipatulo ang laway sa iyang bungot.
14 Then King Achish said to his men, “Look at this man! He is acting like an insane man! Why have you brought him to me?
Unya miingon si Akis ngadto sa iyang mga sulugoon, “Tan-awa, nakita ninyo nga buang kanang tawhana. Nganong gidala man ninyo siya dinhi kanako?
15 Have you brought him because I do not have enough insane men here already [RHQ]? I do not want [RHQ] him to come into my house!”
Nakulangan ba ako ug mga tawong buang, nga nagdala man kamo ug tawo nga sama niining tawhana dinhi sa akong atubangan? Mosulod ba gayod kining tawhana sa akong pinuy-anan?”
