1 Samuel 18:5-19:24 New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) 5 David went out and was successful wherever Saul sent him; as a result, Saul set him over the army. And all the people, even the servants of Saul, approved. 6 As they were coming home, when David returned from killing the Philistine, the women came out of all the towns of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with songs of joy, and with musical instruments. 7 And the women sang to one another as they made merry, “Saul has killed his thousands, and David his ten thousands.” 8 Saul was very angry, for this saying displeased him. He said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed thousands; what more can he have but the kingdom?” 9 So Saul eyed David from that day on. Saul Tries to Kill David 10 The next day an evil spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and he raved within his house, while David was playing the lyre, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand; 11 and Saul threw the spear, for he thought, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice. 12 Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with him but had departed from Saul. 13 So Saul removed him from his presence, and made him a commander of a thousand; and David marched out and came in, leading the army. 14 David had success in all his undertakings; for the Lord was with him. 15 When Saul saw that he had great success, he stood in awe of him. 16 But all Israel and Judah loved David; for it was he who marched out and came in leading them. David Marries Michal 17 Then Saul said to David, “Here is my elder daughter Merab; I will give her to you as a wife; only be valiant for me and fight the Lord’s battles.” For Saul thought, “I will not raise a hand against him; let the Philistines deal with him.” 18 David said to Saul, “Who am I and who are my kinsfolk, my father’s family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?” 19 But at the time when Saul’s daughter Merab should have been given to David, she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as a wife. 20 Now Saul’s daughter Michal loved David. Saul was told, and the thing pleased him. 21 Saul thought, “Let me give her to him that she may be a snare for him and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” Therefore Saul said to David a second time, “You shall now be my son-in-law.” 22 Saul commanded his servants, “Speak to David in private and say, ‘See, the king is delighted with you, and all his servants love you; now then, become the king’s son-in-law.’” 23 So Saul’s servants reported these words to David in private. And David said, “Does it seem to you a little thing to become the king’s son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man and of no repute?” 24 The servants of Saul told him, “This is what David said.” 25 Then Saul said, “Thus shall you say to David, ‘The king desires no marriage present except a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, that he may be avenged on the king’s enemies.’” Now Saul planned to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines. 26 When his servants told David these words, David was well pleased to be the king’s son-in-law. Before the time had expired, 27 David rose and went, along with his men, and killed one hundred of the Philistines; and David brought their foreskins, which were given in full number to the king, that he might become the king’s son-in-law. Saul gave him his daughter Michal as a wife. 28 But when Saul realized that the Lord was with David, and that Saul’s daughter Michal loved him, 29 Saul was still more afraid of David. So Saul was David’s enemy from that time forward. 30 Then the commanders of the Philistines came out to battle; and as often as they came out, David had more success than all the servants of Saul, so that his fame became very great. Jonathan Intercedes for David 19 Saul spoke with his son Jonathan and with all his servants about killing David. But Saul’s son Jonathan took great delight in David. 2 Jonathan told David, “My father Saul is trying to kill you; therefore be on guard tomorrow morning; stay in a secret place and hide yourself. 3 I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak to my father about you; if I learn anything I will tell you.” 4 Jonathan spoke well of David to his father Saul, saying to him, “The king should not sin against his servant David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his deeds have been of good service to you; 5 for he took his life in his hand when he attacked the Philistine, and the Lord brought about a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced; why then will you sin against an innocent person by killing David without cause?” 6 Saul heeded the voice of Jonathan; Saul swore, “As the Lord lives, he shall not be put to death.” 7 So Jonathan called David and related all these things to him. Jonathan then brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before. Michal Helps David Escape from Saul 8 Again there was war, and David went out to fight the Philistines. He launched a heavy attack on them, so that they fled before him. 9 Then an evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand, while David was playing music. 10 Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear; but he eluded Saul, so that he struck the spear into the wall. David fled and escaped that night. 11 Saul sent messengers to David’s house to keep watch over him, planning to kill him in the morning. David’s wife Michal told him, “If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.” 12 So Michal let David down through the window; he fled away and escaped. 13 Michal took an idol and laid it on the bed; she put a net of goats’ hair on its head, and covered it with the clothes. 14 When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.” 15 Then Saul sent the messengers to see David for themselves. He said, “Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.” 16 When the messengers came in, the idol was in the bed, with the covering of goats’ hair on its head. 17 Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me like this, and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped?” Michal answered Saul, “He said to me, ‘Let me go; why should I kill you?’” David Joins Samuel in Ramah 18 Now David fled and escaped; he came to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and settled at Naioth. 19 Saul was told, “David is at Naioth in Ramah.” 20 Then Saul sent messengers to take David. When they saw the company of the prophets in a frenzy, with Samuel standing in charge of them, the spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also fell into a prophetic frenzy. 21 When Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they also fell into a frenzy. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also fell into a frenzy. 22 Then he himself went to Ramah. He came to the great well that is in Secu; he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” And someone said, “They are at Naioth in Ramah.” 23 He went there, toward Naioth in Ramah; and the spirit of God came upon him. As he was going, he fell into a prophetic frenzy, until he came to Naioth in Ramah. 24 He too stripped off his clothes, and he too fell into a frenzy before Samuel. He lay naked all that day and all that night. Therefore it is said, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”

1 शमूएल 23Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) दाऊद कीलाको नगरमा 23 मानिसहरूले दाऊदलाई भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, पलिश्तीहरूले कीलाको शहरमाथि आक्रमण गरिरहेका छन्। खलाबाट तिनीहरूले अन्न लूट्न शुरू गरे।” 2 दाऊदले परमप्रभुलाई सोधे, “के मैले पलिश्तीहरू विरूद्ध युद्ध गर्न जानु?” परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले दाऊदलाई भन्नु भयो, “जाऊ र पलिश्तीहरूमाथि जाइ लाग अनि कीला शहरको रक्षा गर।” 3 तर दाऊदका मानिसहरूले भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, हामी यहाँ यहूदामा डराएर बसिरहेका छौं। साँच्चै पलिश्ती सेनाहरू अघि पुग्दा हामी झन् ज्यादा डराउने छौं।” 4 दाऊदले फेरि परमप्रभुलाई सोधे अनि परमप्रभुले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “कीलामा जाऊ। म पलिश्तीहरूलाई हराउन म सहयोग गर्ने छु।” 5 यसरी दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू कीलामा गए। दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू पलिश्तीसँग लडे। दाऊदका मानिसहरूले पलिश्तीहरूलाई हराए अनि तिनीहरूका पशु लिए। यसरी दाऊदले कीलाका मानिसहरूलाई बँचाए। 6 (जब एबीयातार भागेर दाऊदकहाँ पुगे तिनले आफूसँग एउटा एपोद पनि लगेका थिए।) 7 मानिसहरूले शाऊललाई अहिले दाऊद कीलामा छ भनेर सुनाए। शाऊलले भने, “परमेश्वरले दाऊदलाई मेरा हातमा सुम्पिनु भएको छ। दाऊद फन्दामा परेकोछ। ऊ यस्तो शहरमा पस्यो जहाँ ढोकाहरू छन् र ढोकाहरूमा ताला लगाउने बारहरू छन्।” 8 शाऊलले आफ्ना सारा सेनाहरूलाई लडाईंकोलागि भेला गराए। ती सेनाहरू कीलामा दाऊदका मानिसहरूसँग युद्ध गर्न तयार रहे। 9 शाऊलले दाऊदको विरूद्धमा बनाएको योजना उसलाई थाहा भयो। दाऊदले पूजाहारी एबीयातारलाई भने, “एपोद ल्याऊ।” 10 दाऊदले प्रार्थना गरे, “हे परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर, मैले सुनें कि मेरो कारण शाऊलले यो शहर नष्ट गर्ने योजना बनाउँदैछ। 11 के साँच्चै हुन आउँछ? के किलाका मानिसहरूले म र मेरो मानिसहरूलाई शाऊलको हातमा सुम्पी देलान्? परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर, म तपाईंको दास हुँ। मलाई बताउँनुहोस्।” परमप्रभुले भन्नु भयो, “हो यो हुन आउँछ।” 12 दाऊदले फेरि आफ्नो प्रश्न दोहोर्याए, “के कीलाका मानिसहरूले मलाई शाऊलका हातमा सुम्पिनेछन्?” परमप्रभुले भन्नु भयो, “तिनीहरूले त्यसै गर्नेछन्।” 13 त्यसर्थ दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरूले कीला छोडिदिए। दाऊदसँगै जानेहरू प्रायः 600 मानिस थिए। दाऊदको र उसका मानिसहरू एक ठाउँ देखि अर्को ठाउँ हुँदै घुमिरहे। शाऊलले दाऊद किलाबाट भागे भन्ने थाहा पाए। यसर्थ शाऊल त्यस शहरतिर गएनन्। शाऊलले दाऊदको खेदो गर्छन् 14 दाऊद मरुभूमिको किल्लामा बस्न पुगे। दाऊद जीपको मरुभूमिको पहाडी क्षेत्रमा गए। शाऊलले सधै नै दाऊदको खोजी गर्थे, तर परमप्रभुले शाऊलको हातबाट दाऊदलाई जोगाउनु हुन्थ्यो। 15 दाऊद जीपको मरुभूमिको होरेश भन्ने ठाउँमा थिए। त्यहाँ शाऊल दाऊदललाई मार्न आइरहेकाले तिनी साह्रै डराए। 16 तर शाऊलको छोरा जोनाथन दाऊदलाई भेट्न होरेश गए। जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई परमेश्वरलाई विश्वास गर्न अझ जोड गरे। 17 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई भने, “डराउनु पर्दैन। मेरा पिता शाऊलले तपाईंलाई हानि गर्ने छैनन्। तपाईं इस्राएलका राजा हुनुहुनेछ। मचाहिं तपाईं पछिको हुनेछु। यो कुरा मेरा पिताले पनि जान्दछन्।” 18 जोनाथन र दाऊद दुवैले परमप्रभु अघि एउटा बाचा-बन्धन गरे। त्यसपछि जोनाथन घरतिर लागे अनि दाऊद होरेशमानै बसे। जीपका मानिसहरूले शाऊललाई दाऊदबारे बताउँछन् 19 जीपका बासिन्दाहरू गिबामा शाऊललाई भेट्न आए। तिनीहरूले शाऊललाई भने, “दाऊद हाम्रै क्षेत्रमा लुकेरहेका छन्। ऊ हकीला पहाडको होरेश नाउँको किल्लामा छन्, जो यशीमोनको दक्षिणमा पर्छ। 20 अब, महाराज, तपाईं जहिले आए पनि हुन्छ। दाऊदलाई तपाईंको जिम्मा लगाउने काम हाम्रो भयो।” 21 शाऊलले जवाफ दिए, “परमप्रभुले मलाई सहायता गरेकोमा तिमीहरूलाई आशीर्वाद दिऊन्। 22 जाऊ र उसको बारे अझ जानकारी लेऊ। दाऊद कहाँ बस्छ थाहा गर। दाऊदलाई त्यहाँ कसले देख्छ त्यो पनि बुझिराख। शाऊलले मनमनै विचारे, ‘दाऊद साह्रै चलाख छ। उसले मलाई छक्याउनँ सक्छ।’ 23 दाऊद लुकेको ठाउँहरू पत्ता लगाऊ। त्यसपछि आएर मलाई वृतान्त बताऊ। त्यस पछि म तिमीहरूसित जानेछु। यदि दाऊद ती ठाँउहरूमा कतै छ भने यहूदाको प्रत्येक घरहरूमा छापामारेर म त्यसलाई पत्तालगाउँनेछु।” 24 अनि जीपका मानिसहरू जीपमा फर्किए पछि शाऊल त्यहाँ गए। दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू यशीमोनको दक्षिणमा भएको अराबाको माओन वनमा थिए। 25 शाऊल र तिनका मानिसहरू दाऊदको खोजीमा गए। तर मानिसहरूले दाऊदलाई होसियार गराए। शाऊलले तिमीलाई खोज्दै छ भनेर खबर दिए। त्यसपछि दाऊद माओनको मरुभूमिको तल चट्टानतिर गए। शाऊलले दाऊद माओनको मरुभूमितिर गएको कुरा थाहा पाए। यसरी शाऊल दाऊदको खोजीमा त्यस ठाउँतिर गए। 26 शाऊल पहाडको एकापट्टि थिए, त्यही पहाडको अर्कोपट्टि दाऊद र तिनका मानिसहरू थिए। दाऊद शाऊलको पञ्जाबाट बाँच्न हतारिदै थिए। शाऊल र उसका सिपाहीहरू दाऊदलाई पक्रन पहाडको चारैतिर घुमिरहेका थिए। 27 त्यत्ति नै बेला एउटा समाचार-वाहक शाऊल कहाँ आयो अनि जानकारी दियो, “चाँडो आउनुहोस् पलिश्तीहरूले हामीलाई आक्रमण गर्दैछन्।” 28 यसकारण शाऊलले दाऊदको पिछा गर्न छोडे अनि पलिश्तीहरूसँग लडन गए। यही कारण मानिसहरूले त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ “छुट्टयाउने चट्टान” भन्न थाले। 29 दाऊद माओनको मरुभूमि त्यागेर एनगदीको छेउको किल्लामा गए।
