22 ¶ David kite lavil Gat, li sove, l' al kache nan yon gwòt toupre lavil Adoulam. Lè frè l' yo ak rès fanmi li vin konn sa, yo tout desann al jwenn li la.

Lè sa a, tout moun ki te gen pwoblèm, tout moun ki te dwe lajan, tout moun ki pa t' kontan sitiyasyon an vin jwenn li. David vin chèf yo. Te gen katsan (400) gason konsa antou.

David kite kote l' te ye a, l' ale lavil Mispa nan peyi Moab. Epi li di wa Moab la: -Tanpri, kite papa m' ak manman m' vin rete isit la lakay ou, jouk mwen rive konnen sa Bondye vle fè avè m'.

Se konsa David mennen papa l' ak manman l' lakay wa Moab la. Yo rete la pandan tout tan David te rete kache nan gwòt la.

Yon pwofèt yo rele Gad vin di David: -Piga ou rete nan gwòt la. Pati koulye a. Ale nan peyi Jida! David pati vre, l' al nan rakbwa Erèt la.

¶ Sayil menm te lavil Gibeya, chita anba pye tonmaren ki sou mòn lan, avèk frenn li nan men l'. Tout chèf ki t'ap sèvi avè l' yo te kanpe la bò kote l'. Li te pran nouvèl moun te vin konnen kote David ak mesye l' yo te ye.

Epi Sayil di chèf ki t'ap sèvi avè l' yo: -Nou menm fanmi Benjamen yo, koute! Eske nou mete nan lide nou David, pitit gason Izayi a, pral ban nou jaden ak pye rezen tou? Eske l'ap fè nou kaptenn ak chèf nan lame li a?

Se poutèt sa nou tout n'ap fè konplo sou mwen. Nou yonn pa di m' pwòp pitit gason m' lan te koupe kontra ak David, pitit gason Izayi a? Pa gen yonn nan nou ki pran lapenn pou mwen. Pesonn pa vin di m' pitit gason mwen an ap moute tèt David sou do mwen, yon moun ki t'ap sèvi avè m', epi ki koulye a ap chache mwayen pou li touye m'.

Doèg, moun peyi Edon an ki te chèf tout moun k'ap travay ak Sayil yo, di l' konsa: -Mwen te wè David, pitit gason Izayi a lè li t' ale lavil Nòb, lakay Akimelèk, pitit gason Akitoub la.

10 Akimelèk te pale ak Seyè a pou David. Apre sa, li bay David kèk pwovizyon ansanm ak nepe Golyat, sòlda Filisti a.

11 Se konsa, wa a voye rele Akimelèk, prèt la, pitit gason Akitoub la, ansanm ak tout fanmi l' yo ki te prèt tou nan lavil Nòb. Yo tout moute kay wa a.

12 Sayil di Akimelèk: -W'ap tande m', pitit gason Akitoub la? Akimelèk reponn li: -M'ap tande ou wi, monwa!

13 Sayil mande l': -Poukisa ou mete tèt ou ansanm ak David, pitit gason Izayi a, pou nou fè konplo sou mwen? Poukisa ou ba li pwovizyon ansanm ak yon nepe? Poukisa ou pale ak Seyè a pou li? Koulye a, men li leve dèyè m', l'ap chache okazyon pou li touye m'.

14 Akimelèk reponn li: -Nan tout moun k'ap sèvi avè ou yo, pa gen yonn ki renmen ou tankou David. Se bofi ou li ye, li fè pati gad kò ou yo. Tout moun lakay ou respekte l'.

15 Se pa jòdi a premye fwa mwen pale ak Seyè a pou li, mande Bondye padon. Monwa, ou pa bezwen akize ni mwen ni pesonn nan fanmi m' n'ap fè konplo sou ou. Mwen pa konn anyen sou koze sa a, monwa!

16 Wa a di l' konsa: -Akimelèk, yo pral touye ou, ou menm ansanm ak tout fanmi ou yo.

17 Lèfini, li di gad ki te kanpe bò kote l' yo: -Touye prèt Seyè yo. Yo menm tou y'ap fè konplo ak David la. Yo te konnen byen pwòp se sove msye t'ap sove, yo pa di m' anyen. Men gad yo refize leve men yo sou prèt Seyè a pou touye yo.

18 Lè sa a, Sayil di Doèg: -Ou menm, touye prèt yo: Epi Doèg touye yo tout. Jou sa a, li touye katrevensenk prèt Seyè a.

19 Sayil fè touye tout moun ki te rete nan Nòb, lavil prèt yo: fanm kou gason, timoun, ti bebe nan tete, ansanm ak bèf, bourik, ak mouton. Yo touye tout.

20 ¶ Sèl Abyata, yonn nan pitit gason Akimelèk yo, te resi chape kò l'. Li kouri l' al jwenn David.

21 Li rakonte David ki jan Sayil te masakre tout prèt Seyè yo.

22 David di l' konsa: -Depi mwen te wè Doèg, nèg peyi Edon an, la, mwen te konnen li pa t'ap pa di Sayil sa. Se mwen menm ki reskonsab lanmò tout fanmi ou yo.

23 Ou mèt rete avè m'. Ou pa bezwen pè. Koulye a Sayil pral chache touye ni ou ni mwen. Bò kote m', anyen p'ap rive ou.

David at Adullam and Mizpah

22 David left Gath and escaped to the cave(A) of Adullam.(B) When his brothers and his father’s household heard about it, they went down to him there. All those who were in distress or in debt or discontented gathered(C) around him, and he became their commander. About four hundred men were with him.

From there David went to Mizpah in Moab and said to the king of Moab, “Would you let my father and mother come and stay with you until I learn what God will do for me?” So he left them with the king of Moab,(D) and they stayed with him as long as David was in the stronghold.

But the prophet Gad(E) said to David, “Do not stay in the stronghold. Go into the land of Judah.” So David left and went to the forest of Hereth.(F)

Saul Kills the Priests of Nob

Now Saul heard that David and his men had been discovered. And Saul was seated,(G) spear in hand, under the tamarisk(H) tree on the hill at Gibeah, with all his officials standing at his side. He said to them, “Listen, men of Benjamin! Will the son of Jesse give all of you fields and vineyards? Will he make all of you commanders(I) of thousands and commanders of hundreds? Is that why you have all conspired(J) against me? No one tells me when my son makes a covenant(K) with the son of Jesse.(L) None of you is concerned(M) about me or tells me that my son has incited my servant to lie in wait for me, as he does today.”

But Doeg(N) the Edomite, who was standing with Saul’s officials, said, “I saw the son of Jesse come to Ahimelek son of Ahitub(O) at Nob.(P) 10 Ahimelek inquired(Q) of the Lord for him; he also gave him provisions(R) and the sword(S) of Goliath the Philistine.”

11 Then the king sent for the priest Ahimelek son of Ahitub and all the men of his family, who were the priests at Nob, and they all came to the king. 12 Saul said, “Listen now, son of Ahitub.”

“Yes, my lord,” he answered.

13 Saul said to him, “Why have you conspired(T) against me, you and the son of Jesse, giving him bread and a sword and inquiring of God for him, so that he has rebelled against me and lies in wait for me, as he does today?”

14 Ahimelek answered the king, “Who(U) of all your servants is as loyal as David, the king’s son-in-law, captain of your bodyguard and highly respected in your household? 15 Was that day the first time I inquired of God for him? Of course not! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of his father’s family, for your servant knows nothing at all about this whole affair.”

16 But the king said, “You will surely die, Ahimelek, you and your whole family.(V)

17 Then the king ordered the guards at his side: “Turn and kill the priests of the Lord, because they too have sided with David. They knew he was fleeing, yet they did not tell me.”

But the king’s officials were unwilling(W) to raise a hand to strike the priests of the Lord.

18 The king then ordered Doeg, “You turn and strike down the priests.”(X) So Doeg the Edomite turned and struck them down. That day he killed eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod.(Y) 19 He also put to the sword(Z) Nob,(AA) the town of the priests, with its men and women, its children and infants, and its cattle, donkeys and sheep.

20 But one son of Ahimelek son of Ahitub,(AB) named Abiathar,(AC) escaped and fled to join David.(AD) 21 He told David that Saul had killed the priests of the Lord. 22 Then David said to Abiathar, “That day, when Doeg(AE) the Edomite was there, I knew he would be sure to tell Saul. I am responsible for the death of your whole family. 23 Stay with me; don’t be afraid. The man who wants to kill you(AF) is trying to kill me too. You will be safe with me.”
