Today's audio is from the CSB. Switch to the CSB to read along with the audio. 22 When David escaped from the town of Gath, he went to Adullam Cave. His brothers and the rest of his family found out where he was, and they followed him there. 2 A lot of other people joined him too. Some were in trouble, others were angry or in debt, and David was soon the leader of four hundred men. 3 David left Adullam Cave and went to the town of Mizpeh in Moab, where he talked with the king of Moab. “Please,” David said, “let my father and mother stay with you until I find out what God will do with me.” 4 So he brought his parents to the king of Moab, and they stayed with him while David was in hiding. 5 One day the prophet Gad told David, “Don’t stay here! Go back to Judah.” David then left and went to Hereth Forest. 6 Saul was sitting under a small tree on top of the hill at Gibeah when he heard that David and his men had been seen. Saul was holding his spear, and his officers were standing in front of him. 7 He told them: Listen to me! You belong to the Benjamin tribe,[a] so if that son of Jesse ever becomes king, he won’t give you fields or vineyards. He won’t make you officers in charge of thousands or hundreds as I have done. 8 But you’re all plotting against me! Not one of you told me that my own son Jonathan had made an agreement with him. Not one of you cared enough to tell me that Jonathan had helped one of my officers[b] rebel. Now that son of Jesse is trying to ambush me. 9 Doeg the Edomite was standing with the other officers and spoke up, “When I was in the town of Nob, I saw that son of Jesse. He was visiting the priest Ahimelech the son of Ahitub. 10 Ahimelech talked to the Lord for him, then gave him food and the sword that had belonged to Goliath the Philistine.” 11 Saul sent a message to Ahimelech and his whole family of priests at Nob, ordering them to come to him. When they came, 12 Saul told them, “Listen to me, you son of Ahitub.” “Certainly, Your Majesty,” Ahimelech answered. 13 Saul demanded, “Why did you plot against me with that son of Jesse? You helped him rebel against me by giving him food and a sword, and by talking with God for him. Now he’s trying to ambush me!” 14 “Your Majesty, none of your officers is more loyal than David!” Ahimelech replied. “He’s your son-in-law and the captain of your bodyguard. Everyone in your family respects him. 15 This isn’t the first time I’ve talked with God for David, and it’s never made you angry before! Please don’t accuse me or my family like this. I have no idea what’s going on!” 16 “Ahimelech,” Saul said, “you and your whole family are going to die.” 17 Saul shouted to his bodyguards, “These priests of the Lord helped David! They knew he was running away, but they didn’t tell me. Kill them!” But the king’s officers would not attack the priests of the Lord. 18 Saul turned to Doeg, who was from Edom, and said, “Kill the priests!” On that same day, Doeg killed eighty-five priests. 19 Then he attacked the town of Nob, where the priests had lived, and he killed everyone there—men, women, children, and babies. He even killed their cattle, donkeys, and sheep. 20 Ahimelech’s son Abiathar was the only one who escaped. He ran to David 21 and told him, “Saul has murdered the priests at Nob!” 22 David answered, “That day when I saw Doeg, I knew he would tell Saul! Your family died because of me. 23 Stay here. Isn’t the same person trying to kill both of us? Don’t worry! You’ll be safe here with me.” 23 One day some people told David, “The Philistines keep attacking the town of Keilah and stealing grain from the threshing place.” 2 David asked the Lord, “Should I attack these Philistines?” “Yes,” the Lord answered. “Attack them and rescue Keilah.” 3 But David’s men said, “Look, even here in Judah we’re afraid of the Philistines. We will be terrified if we try to fight them at Keilah!”[c] 4 David asked the Lord about it again. “Leave right now,” the Lord answered. “I will give you victory over the Philistines at Keilah.” 5 David and his men went there and fiercely attacked the Philistines. They killed many of them, then led away their cattle, and rescued the people of Keilah. 6-8 Meanwhile, Saul heard that David was in Keilah. “God has let me catch David,” Saul said. “David is trapped inside a walled town where the gates can be locked.” Saul decided to go there and surround the town, in order to trap David and his men. He sent messengers who told the towns and villages, “Send men to serve in Saul’s army!” By this time, Abiathar had joined David in Keilah and had brought along everything he needed to get answers from God. 9 David heard about Saul’s plan to capture him, and he told Abiathar, “Let’s ask God what we should do.” 10 David prayed, “Lord God of Israel, I was told that Saul is planning to come here. What should I do? Suppose he threatens to destroy the town because of me. 11 Would the leaders of Keilah turn me over to Saul? Or is he really coming? Please tell me, Lord.” “Yes, he will come,” the Lord answered. 12 David asked, “Would the leaders of Keilah hand me and my soldiers over to Saul?” “Yes, they would,” the Lord answered. 13 David and his six hundred men got out of there fast and started moving from place to place. Saul heard that David had left Keilah, and he decided not to go after him. 14 David stayed in hideouts in the hill country of Ziph Desert. Saul kept searching, but God never let Saul catch him. 15 One time, David was at Horesh in Ziph Desert. He was afraid because[d] Saul had come to the area to kill him. 16 But Jonathan went to see David, and God helped him encourage David. 17 “Don’t be afraid,” Jonathan said. “My father Saul will never get his hands on you. In fact, you’re going to be the next king of Israel, and I’ll be your highest official. Even my father knows it’s true.” 18 They both promised the Lord that they would always be loyal to each other. Then Jonathan went home, but David stayed at Horesh. 19 Some people from the town of Ziph went to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Your Majesty, David has a hideout not far from us! It’s near Horesh, somewhere on Mount Hachilah south of Jeshimon.[e] 20 If you come, we will help you catch him.” 21 Saul told them: You’ve done me a big favor, and I pray that the Lord will bless you. 22 Now please do just a little more for me. Find out exactly where David is, as well as where he goes, and who has seen him there. I’ve been told that he’s very tricky. 23 Find out where all his hiding places are and come back when you’re sure. Then I’ll go with you. If he is still in the area, or anywhere among the clans of Judah, I’ll find him. 24 The people from Ziph went back ahead of Saul, and they found out that David and his men were still south of Jeshimon in the Maon Desert. 25 Saul and his army set out to find David. But David heard that Saul was coming, and he went to a place called The Rock, one of his hideouts in Maon Desert. Saul found out where David was and started closing in on him. 26 Saul was going around a hill on one side, and David and his men were on the other side, trying to get away. Saul and his soldiers were just about to capture David and his men, 27 when a messenger came to Saul and said, “Come quickly! The Philistines are attacking Israel and taking everything.” 28 Saul stopped going after David and went back to fight the Philistines. That’s why the place is called “Escape Rock.” 29 David left and went to live in the hideouts at En-Gedi. 10 Jesus said: I tell you for certain that only thieves and robbers climb over the fence instead of going in through the gate to the sheep pen. 2-3 But the gatekeeper opens the gate for the shepherd, and he goes in through it. The sheep know their shepherd’s voice. He calls each of them by name and leads them out. 4 When he has led out all of his sheep, he walks in front of them, and they follow, because they know his voice. 5 The sheep will not follow strangers. They don’t recognize a stranger’s voice, and they run away. 6 Jesus told the people this story. But they did not understand what he was talking about. 7 Jesus said: I tell you for certain that I am the gate for the sheep. 8 Everyone who came before me was a thief or a robber, and the sheep did not listen to any of them. 9 I am the gate. All who come in through me will be saved. Through me they will come and go and find pasture. 10 A thief comes only to rob, kill, and destroy. I came so that everyone would have life, and have it in its fullest. 11 I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd gives up his life for his sheep. 12 Hired workers are not like the shepherd. They don’t own the sheep, and when they see a wolf coming, they run off and leave the sheep. Then the wolf attacks and scatters the flock. 13 Hired workers run away because they don’t care about the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep, and they know me. 15 Just as the Father knows me, I know the Father, and I give up my life for my sheep. 16 I have other sheep that are not in this sheep pen. I must bring them together too, when they hear my voice. Then there will be one flock of sheep and one shepherd. 17 The Father loves me, because I give up my life, so that I may receive it back again. 18 No one takes my life from me. I give it up willingly! I have the power to give it up and the power to receive it back again, just as my Father commanded me to do. 19 The people took sides because of what Jesus had told them. 20 Many of them said, “He has a demon in him! He is crazy! Why listen to him?” 21 But others said, “How could anyone with a demon in him say these things? No one like that could give sight to a blind person!” 115 We don’t deserve praise! The Lord alone deserves all of the praise, because of his love and faithfulness. 2 Why should the nations ask, “Where is your God?” 3 Our God is in the heavens, doing as he chooses. 4 The idols of the nations are made of silver and gold. 5 They have a mouth and eyes, but they can’t speak or see. 6 Their ears can’t hear, and their noses can’t smell. 7 Their hands have no feeling, their legs don’t move, and they can’t make a sound. 8 Everyone who made the idols and all who trust them are just as helpless as those useless gods. 9 People of Israel, you must trust the Lord to help and protect you. 10 Family of Aaron the priest, you must trust the Lord to help and protect you. 11 All of you worship the Lord, so you must trust him to help and protect you. 12 The Lord will not forget to give us his blessing; he will bless all of Israel and the family of Aaron. 13 All who worship the Lord, no matter who they are, will receive his blessing. 14 I pray that the Lord will let your family and your descendants always grow strong. 15 May the Lord who created the heavens and the earth give you his blessing. 16 The Lord has kept the heavens for himself, but he has given the earth to us humans. 17 The dead are silent and cannot praise the Lord, 18 but we will praise him now and forevermore. Shout praises to the Lord! 18 Losing your temper causes a lot of trouble, but staying calm settles arguments. 19 Being lazy is like walking in a thorn patch, but everyone who does right walks on a smooth road.

1 शमूएल 22Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) दाऊद विभिन्न ठाउँहरूमा जान्छन् 22 दाऊदले गात छोडेर भागे। दाऊद आदुल्लामको गुफामा पुगे। दाऊदका दाज्यू-भाइहरू र आफन्तहरूले दाऊद आदुल्लाममा छ भनी सुने। तिनीहरू दाऊदलाई भेट्न गए। 2 धेरै मानिसहरूले दाऊदलाई साथ दिएका थिए। दाऊदलाई साथ दिनेहरूमा तिनीहरू थिए जो केही न केही समस्यामा परेका थिए। कोही ऋणमा डुबेकाहरू थिए कोही आफ्नै जिन्दगीसँग असन्तुष्टि थिए। यिनीहरूले दाऊदलाई साथ दिए र तिनीहरूका नेता दाऊद थिए। त्यहाँ लगभग 400 पुरूषहरू दाऊदसँग थिए। 3 मोआबमा मिस्पा जाँदा दाऊदले आदुल्लाम छोडे। मोआबका राजालाई दाऊदले भने, “मलाई परमेश्वरले के गरिरहनु भएको छ भनि नजानुन्जेलसम्म मेरा आमा बाबुलाई तपाईंले यहाँ बस्ने अनुमति दिनुहोस्।” 4 यसप्रकार दाऊदले उसका आमा-बुबालाई मोआबका राजा कहाँ ल्याए। जबसम्म दाऊद किल्लामा रहे तबसम्म उनका आमा बाबु मोआबका राजासँग बसे। 5 तर अगमवक्ता गादले दाऊदलाई भने, “किल्लामा नबस्नु होस्। बरू यहूदाको भूमिमा जानुहोस्।” यसर्थ दाऊद त्यहाँबाट हारेतको बन तिर गए। शाऊलले अहीमेलेकको परिवारलाई नष्ट गरे 6 शाऊलले सुने कि उसका मानिसहरूले दाऊद र उनका मानिसहरू कतातिर छन् भन्ने थाहा पाए। शाऊल गिबाको टाकुरामा एउटा रूखको छाहारीमुनि बसिरहेका थिए। शाऊलले हातमा भाला लिएका थिए। तिनका सबै अधिकारीहरू वरिपरि उभिएका थिए। 7 शाऊलले आफ्ना वरिपरि उभिएका अधिकारीहरूलाई भने, “बिन्यामीनका मानिसहरू हो सुन, तिमीहरूले विचार गरेका छौ, यिशैको छोरा दाऊदले तिमीहरूलाई खेत तथा दाखका बगान दिएको छ? तिमीहरूले यो पनि सोचेका छौ कि दाऊदले तिमीहरूको उन्नति गराउने छ अनि 1,000 र 100 मानिसहरूका अधिकारी बनाउने छ? 8 तिमीहरू सबैले मेरो विरूद्ध षड्यन्त्र रच्दैछौ। तिमीहरू कसैले पनि छोरा जोनाथनले यिशैका छोरासँग सन्धि गरेको छ भनेर भनेनौ कसैले मेरो वास्ता गरेनौ। मेरो छोरा जोनाथनले दाऊद मेरो नोकरलाई सहायता गरेको कुरा कसैले पनि भनेनौ। जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई लुकेर रहनु भन्ने गर्थ्यो ताकि उसले मलाई आक्रमण गर्न सकोस्। अनि दाऊदले अहिले त्यही नै गर्दैछ।” 9 एदोमी दोएग शाऊलका अधिकारीहरूसँगै उभिरहेको थियो। दोएगले भन्यो, “मैले यिशैका छोरा दाऊदलाई नोब भन्ने ठाउँमा देखें। दाऊद अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेकलाई भेट्न आएका थिए। 10 अहीमेलेकले परमप्रभुसँग दाऊदका लागि प्रार्थना गरे। तिनले दाऊदलाई भोजन पनि दिए। अनि अहीमेलेकले दाऊदलाई पलिश्ती गोल्यतको त्यो तरवार पनि दिए।” 11 त्यस पछि राजा शाऊलले पूजाहारीहरूलाई हाजिर गराउनु भनेर मानिसहरूलाई आदेश दिए। शाऊलले अहीतूबका छोरा अहीमेलेकलाई तिनका आफन्तहरूसितै लिएर आउनु भन्ने आदेश दिए। अहीमेलेकका आफन्तहरू नोबमा पूजाहारी थिए। तिनीहरू सबै राजाका अगाडि हाजिर भए। 12 शाऊलले अहीमेलेकलाई भने, “हे अहीतूबका छोरा, सुन।” अहीमेलेकले जवाफ दिए, “भन्नुहोस, मेरो प्रभु।” 13 शाऊलले अहीमेलेकलाई भने, “तिमी र यिशैका छोरा दाऊदले मेरो विरूद्ध किन षड्यन्त्र रच्यौ? तिमीले दाऊदलाई रोटी र तरवार दियौ। परमेश्वरसँग तिमीले उसको लागि विन्तीभाउ पनि गर्यौ। अनि अहिले दाऊद सोझै मलाई आक्रमण गर्ने मौका हेर्दैछ।” 14 अहीमेलेकले जवाफ दिए, “दाऊद तपाईंको सबभन्दा भरोसा गर्न योग्यको पात्र हो। तपाईंका कुनै अधिकारी पनि दाऊद जस्ता विश्वासी छैनन्। दाऊद त तपाईंका आफ्नै ज्वाइँ हुन्। साथै दाऊद तपाईंका अंगरक्षकहरूका कप्तान पनि हुन्। तपाईंका परिवारका सबैले दाऊदलाई आदर गर्छन्। 15 दाऊदको लागि मैले प्रार्थना गरेको यो प्रथमचोटि होइन। मलाई र मेरा आफन्तहरूलाई दोष नदिनुहोस्। हामी त तपाईंका सेवक हौं। कहाँ के भइरहेछ मलाई केही थाहा छैन।” 16 तर राजाले भने, “अहीमेलेक, तिमी र तिम्रा आफन्तहरू मारिनु नै पर्छ।” 17 अनि राजाले आफ्ना छेऊमा उभिएको रक्षकलाई आदेश दिए, “जाऊ, परमप्रभुका ती पूजाहारीहरूलाई मार। यसो गर्नै पर्छ कारण तिनीहरू दाऊदका मानिसहरू हुन्। दाऊद भाग्दै थियो भन्ने जान्दा जान्दै पनि तिनीहरूले मलाई बताएनन्।” तर राजाका अधिकारीहरूले परमप्रभुका ती पूजाहारीहरूलाई मार्न अस्वीकार गरे 18 यसर्थ राजाले दोएगलाई आदेश दिए। शाऊलले भने, “दोएग, तिमी गएर पूजाहारीहरूलाई मार।” एदोमी दोएग गएर पूजाहारीहरूको हत्या गरे। त्यस दिन दोएगले 85 जना पूजाहारीहरूलाई मारे। 19 नोब पूजाहारीहरूको शहर थियो। दोएगले नोबका सम्पूर्ण मानिसहरूलाई मारे। दोएगले तरवारले पुरूष, स्त्री बालक र शिशु लगायत सबैलाई मारे। यहाँ सम्म दोएगले गाईं, गोरु, गधा र भेंडा समेत बाँकी राखेनन्। 20 तर एबीयातार उम्केर भागे, एबीयातार अहीमेलेकका छोरा थिए। अहीमेलेक चाँहि अहीतूबका छोरा थिए। एबीयातार भागेर गए र दाऊदसँग मिले। 21 एबीयातारले दाऊदलाई शाऊलले पूजाहारीहरू मारेको वृतान्त बताए। 22 त्यसपछि दाऊदले एबीयातारलाई भने, “त्यस दिन नोबमा मैले एदोमी दोएगलाई देखेको थिएँ। मलाई थाहा थियो त्यसले शाऊललाई बताउने छ भनेर। तिम्रा पिताको परिवालाई मारेकोमा म आफूलाई जिममेवार ठान्छु। 23 त्यो मानिस (शाऊलले) तपाईंलाई मार्न चाहान्छ र मलाई पनि। तिमी यहीं बस नडराऊ, तिमी यहाँ मसँग सुरक्षित रहने छौ।”
