1 Samuel 18Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB) David’s Success 18 When David had finished speaking with Saul, Jonathan committed himself to David, and loved him as much as he loved himself. 2 Saul kept David with him from that day on and did not let him return to his father’s house. 3 Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as much as himself. 4 Then Jonathan removed the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his military tunic, his sword, his bow, and his belt. 5 David marched out with the army and was successful in everything Saul sent him to do. Saul put him in command of the soldiers, which pleased all the people and Saul’s servants as well. 6 As the troops were coming back, when David was returning from killing the Philistine, the women came out from all the cities of Israel to meet King Saul, singing and dancing with tambourines, with shouts of joy, and with three-stringed instruments. 7 As they celebrated, the women sang: Saul has killed his thousands, but David his tens of thousands. 8 Saul was furious and resented this song. “They credited tens of thousands to David,” he complained, “but they only credited me with thousands. What more can he have but the kingdom?” 9 So Saul watched David jealously from that day forward. Saul Attempts to Kill David 10 The next day an evil spirit sent from God took control of Saul, and he began to rave inside the palace. David was playing the lyre as usual, but Saul was holding a spear, 11 and he threw it, thinking, “I’ll pin David to the wall.” But David got away from him twice. 12 Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with David but had left Saul. 13 Therefore, Saul reassigned David and made him commander over 1,000 men. David led the troops 14 and continued to be successful in all his activities because the Lord was with him. 15 When Saul observed that David was very successful, he dreaded him. 16 But all Israel and Judah loved David because he was leading their troops. 17 Saul told David, “Here is my oldest daughter Merab. I’ll give her to you as a wife, if you will be a warrior for me and fight the Lord’s battles.” But Saul was thinking, “My hand doesn’t need to be against him; let the hand of the Philistines be against him.” 18 Then David responded, “Who am I, and what is my family or my father’s clan in Israel that I should become the king’s son-in-law?” 19 When it was time to give Saul’s daughter Merab to David, she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as a wife. David’s Marriage to Michal 20 Now Saul’s daughter Michal loved David, and when it was reported to Saul, it pleased him. 21 “I’ll give her to him,” Saul thought. “She’ll be a trap for him, and the hand of the Philistines will be against him.” So Saul said to David a second time, “You can now be my son-in-law.” 22 Saul then ordered his servants, “Speak to David in private and tell him, ‘Look, the king is pleased with you, and all his servants love you. Therefore, you should become the king’s son-in-law.’” 23 Saul’s servants reported these words directly to David, but he replied, “Is it trivial in your sight to become the king’s son-in-law? I am a poor man who is common.” 24 The servants reported back to Saul, “These are the words David spoke.” 25 Then Saul replied, “Say this to David: ‘The king desires no other bride-price except 100 Philistine foreskins, to take revenge on his enemies.’” Actually, Saul intended to cause David’s death at the hands of the Philistines. 26 When the servants reported these terms to David, he was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law. Before the wedding day arrived, 27 David and his men went out and killed 200 Philistines. He brought their foreskins and presented them as full payment to the king to become his son-in-law. Then Saul gave his daughter Michal to David as his wife. 28 Saul realized that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal loved him, 29 and he became even more afraid of David. As a result, Saul was David’s enemy from then on. 30 Every time the Philistine commanders came out to fight, David was more successful than all of Saul’s officers. So his name became well known.

1 शमूएल 19Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई सहायता गरे 19 शाऊलले आफ्ना छोरा जोनाथन र उसका सबै अधिकारीहरूलाई दाऊदको हत्या गर्नु भने। तर जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई एक्दमै प्रेम गर्थे। 2-3 जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई होसियार गराए, “सावधान बस! शाऊलले तिमीलाई मार्ने मौका खेज्दैछन्। बिहानै खेतमा गएर लुक्नु। म मेरो पितासँग खेतमा आउँछु। हामीहरू तिमी लुकेकै छेउको खेतमा उभिने छौं। म पितासँग तिम्रो बारेमा चर्चा गर्छु। त्यसपछि जे थाहा पाउँछु तिमीलाई बताउँछु।” 4 जोनाथनले आफ्ना पिता शाऊलसँग कुरा गरे। जोनाथनले दाऊदको राम्रो पक्षको चर्चा गरे। जोनाथनले भने, “तपाईं राजा हुनुहुन्छ। दाऊद खालि तपाईंको सेवक मात्र हो। दाऊदले तपाईंलाई कुनै रीतिले हानि गरेको छैन। तपाईंले पनि उसको हानि गर्नु हुँदैन। दाऊदले सधै तपाईंको पक्षमा काम गरे। 5 पलिश्ती गोलियतलाई मार्दा पनि दाऊदले आफ्नो जीवन खतरामा हालेका थिए। परमप्रभुले सबै इस्राएललाई महान विजय दिलाउनु भयो। यो सब देखेर तपाईं खुशी हुनुभयो। अब दाऊदलाई किन मार्न चाहनुहुन्छ! दाऊद निर्दोष छ। दाऊदको हत्या गर्ने कुनै कारण नै छैन।” 6 शाऊलले जोनाथनको कुरा सुन्यो। शाऊलले शपथ खाए, “परमप्रभु जीवित रहनु भए झैं दाऊद मारिने छैन।” 7 यसर्थ जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई बोलाए र सबै कुरा सुनाए। त्यसपछि जोनाथनले दाऊदलाई शाऊल कहाँ लगे। यस पछि शाऊल र दाऊद पहिलेको जस्तै भए। शाऊलले फेरि दाऊदलाई मार्न चाहे 8 युद्ध फेरि शुरू भयो अनि दाऊद पलिश्तीहरूसँग लडन गए। दाऊदले पलिश्तीहरूलाई परास्त गरे र तिनीहरू भागे। 9 परमप्रभुबाटको दुष्ट आत्माले शाऊलमा प्रेवश गर्यो। शाऊल घरैमा बसिरहेका थिए। शाऊलको हातमा भाला थियो। दाऊदले वीणा बजाउँदै थिए। 10 शाऊलले भाला हानेर दाऊदलाई भित्तैमा उनिदिने प्रयास गरे। तर दाऊद उफ्रिएर बाँचे। भाला गएर भित्तामा गाडियो। त्यही रात दाऊद त्यहाँबाट भागे। 11 शाऊलले दाऊदको घरमा मानिस पठाए! मानिसहरूले दाऊदको घरलाई पहरा दिए। तिनीहरू रातभरी त्यही बसे। बिहानी पख दाऊदलाई मारौंला भने। तर दाऊदकी पत्नी मीकलले उसलाई सावधानी गराउँदै भनिन्, “आज राती भाग्नु होस् र आफ्नो ज्यान बचाउँनु होस्। यदि भाग्नु भएन भने भोलि विहान तपाईं मारिनु हुनेछ।” 12 त्यसपछि मीकलले झ्यालबाट झरेर भाग्न लगाईन्। 13 मीकलले एउटा परिवारिक मूर्तिलाई ओध्यानमा सुताएर टाउकोमा बाख्राको रौं राखेर लुगाले ढाकिदिईन्। 14 शाऊलले दाऊदलाई बन्दी बनाउनलाई दूत पठाए। तर मीकलले भनी, “दाऊद बिरामी हुनुहुन्छ।” 15 शाऊलले दूतलाई फेरि दाऊद पछि पठाए र भने, “दाऊदलाई यहाँ ल्याउँनु यदि तिमीले उसलाई आफ्नो आछ्यानमा सुतिरहेको अवस्थामा ल्याऊ ता की म उसलाई मार्न सकूँ।” 16 ती दूत फेरि दाऊदको घर गए। तिनीहरू दाऊदलाई पक्रन भनेर भित्र गए। तर त्यहाँ गएर देखे ओछ्यानमा त एउटा मूर्तिको कपाल बाख्राको रौं पो रहेछ। 17 शाऊलले मीकललाई सोधे, “तैंले मलाई यसरी धोका किन दिइस्? तैंले मेरो शत्रुलाई भगाइस्। दाऊद भाग्यो।” मीकलले शाऊललाई भनी, “यदि मैले दाऊदलाई भाग्नमा सहायता गरिन भने मलाई नै मार्छु भन्यो।” दाऊद भागेर रामा डेरामा पुगे 18 दाऊद भागेर शमूएल भएको ठाउँ रामामा पुगे। दाऊदले तिनी माथि शाऊलले गरेको प्रत्येक कुरा शमूएललाई सुनाए। त्यसपछि दाऊद र शमूएल दुवै अगमवक्ताहरू बसेका डेरामा पुगे। दाऊद त्यहीं बस्नथाले। 19 शाऊलले सुने कि दाऊद रामाको एउटा डेरामा बस्दैछन्। 20 शाऊलले दाऊदलाई पक्रिन मानिस पठाए। तर त्यस डेरामा मानिसहरूले अगमवक्तहरू अगमवाणी गरिरहेका देखे। त्यस दलको माझमा उभिएर शमूएलले नेतृत्व दिंदै थिए। परमेश्वरको आत्मा शाऊलका दूतहरूमा उत्रियो र तिनीहरूले पनि अगमवाणी गर्नथाले। 21 शाऊलले यो खबर पनि सुने र अरू दूतहरू पठाए। तर तिनीहरूले पनि अगमवाणी गर्न थाले। तेस्रो चोटि पनि शाऊलले दूतहरू पठाए तर तिनीहरूले पहिलो तरिका अप्नाए अनि अगमवाणी गर्न लागे। 22 अन्त्यमा, शाऊल आफैं रामा गए। शाऊल सेकूको खलाको छेऊमा एउटा ठूलो कूवा भएतिर आइपुगे र “शमूएल र दाऊद कहाँ छन्” भनी सोधे। मानिसहरूले जवाफ दिए, “रामाको छाउनी छेऊमा।” 23 त्यसपछि शाऊल रामाको त्यस डेरामा पुगे। परमेश्वरको आत्मा पनि शाऊलमा उत्रियो। शाऊलले पनि अगमवाणी गर्न थाले। शाऊलले बाटोदेखि रामाको डेरा सम्मै अगमवाणी बोले। 24 त्यसपछि शाऊलले आफ्नो लुगाहरू खोल्न थाले। शमूएलको अघि पनि शाऊलले अगमवाणी गरिरहे। शाऊल त्यहाँ दिन रात नाङ्गै लडिरहे। यही कारणले मानिसहरू भन्ने गर्छन्, “के शाऊल पनि अगमवक्ताहरू मध्ये कै एकजना हो?”
