1 Samuel 21
Maori Bible
21 Katahi ka tae a Rawiri ki Nopo ki te tohunga ki a Ahimereke. A wiri ana a Ahimereke i te tutakitanga ki a Rawiri, a ka mea ki a ia, He aha koe i haere mai ai, tou kotahi, kahore na hoki ou hoa?
2 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki te tohunga, ki a Ahimereke, He mea i whakahaua ai ahau e te kingi; i mea mai hoki ia ki ahau, Kei mohiotia e tetahi he kupu o te take ka tonoa atu nei koe e ahau, i whakahaua atu nei koe e ahau. Na, ko nga tangata, kei te wa hi i kiia e ahau mo ratou.
3 Na, he aha kei raro i tou ringa? homai etahi taro ki toku ringa, kia rima: etahi atu mea ranei kei konei.
4 Na ka utu te tohunga ki a Rawiri, ka mea, Kahore he taro noa i toku ringa: engari tenei te taro tapu; ki te mea raia kahore i tata nga tangata ki te wahine.
5 Na ka whakahoki a Rawiri ki te tohunga, ka mea ki a ia, He pono kihai tetahi wahine i tukua kia tata ki a matou i enei ra e toru; noku i haere mai nei e tapu ana ano nga mea o nga tamariki, ahakoa ra he haere noa tenei; tera noa atu ia te tapu in aianei o o ratou mea.
6 Na ka hoatu te mea tapu e te tohunga ki a ia: kahore hoki o reira taro, heoi ano ko te taro aroaro i tangohia nei i te aroaro o Ihowa, kia whakatakotoria ai he taro mahana i te ra i tangohia ai.
7 Na, i reira tetahi o nga tangata a Haora i taua ra, e whakawarea ana ki te aroaro o Ihowa, ko tona ingoa ko Roeke Eromi, ko te mea tino nui o nga kaitiaki hipi a Haora.
8 Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Ahimereke, Kahore ianei i konei i raro i tou ringa tetahi tao, hoari ranei: kihai hoki i maua mai e ahau taku hoari me aku patu, he mea whakapotatutatu hoki te take a te kingi.
9 Ano ra ko te tohunga, Ko te hoari a Koriata, a te Pirihitini, i patua na e koe ki te raorao o Eraha; nana, koia tenei he mea takai ki te kakahu i muri o te epora. Ki te tangohia tena e koe mau, tangohia; kahore atu hoki, ko tena anake. Na ka mea a Rawiri, Kahore ona rite, homai ki ahau.
10 Katahi a Rawiri ka whakatika, a rere ana i taua ra ano i te wehi i a Haora, a tae tonu atu ki a Akihi kingi o Kata.
11 Na ka mea nga tangata a Akihi ki a ia, Ehara ianei tenei i a Rawiri, i te kingi o te whenua? kihai ianei ratou i waiata mona, tetahi ki tetahi i roto i nga kanikani, i mea, Na Haora ana mano i patu, na Rawiri ko ana tekau mano?
12 Na mau tonu iho enei kupu i te ngakau o Rawiri, a nui atu tona wehi i a Akihi kingi a Kata.
13 Na ka whakaahua ke ia ki to ratou aroaro, a ka whakahaurangi i a ia i roto i a ratou; ka haehae hoki i nga tatau o te kuwaha, a ka tuku i tona huhare kia tarere iho ki tona kimikumi.
14 Katahi a Akihi ka mea ki ana tangata, Nana, kua kite koutou i te tangata nei e haurangi ana; he aha i kawea mai ai ki ahau?
15 He onge no aku tangata haurangi i kawea mai ai tenei e koutou hei mahi i nga mahi a te haurangi ki ahau? me uru mai koia tenei tahake ki toku whare?

David at Nob
21 [a]David went to Nob,(A) to Ahimelek the priest. Ahimelek trembled(B) when he met him, and asked, “Why are you alone? Why is no one with you?”
2 David answered Ahimelek the priest, “The king sent me on a mission and said to me, ‘No one is to know anything about the mission I am sending you on.’ As for my men, I have told them to meet me at a certain place. 3 Now then, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever you can find.”
4 But the priest answered David, “I don’t have any ordinary bread(C) on hand; however, there is some consecrated(D) bread here—provided the men have kept(E) themselves from women.”
5 David replied, “Indeed women have been kept from us, as usual(F) whenever[b] I set out. The men’s bodies are holy(G) even on missions that are not holy. How much more so today!” 6 So the priest gave him the consecrated bread,(H) since there was no bread there except the bread of the Presence that had been removed from before the Lord and replaced by hot bread on the day it was taken away.
7 Now one of Saul’s servants was there that day, detained before the Lord; he was Doeg(I) the Edomite,(J) Saul’s chief shepherd.
8 David asked Ahimelek, “Don’t you have a spear or a sword here? I haven’t brought my sword or any other weapon, because the king’s mission was urgent.”
9 The priest replied, “The sword(K) of Goliath(L) the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah,(M) is here; it is wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you want it, take it; there is no sword here but that one.”
David said, “There is none like it; give it to me.”
David at Gath
10 That day David fled from Saul and went(N) to Achish king of Gath. 11 But the servants of Achish said to him, “Isn’t this David, the king of the land? Isn’t he the one they sing about in their dances:
“‘Saul has slain his thousands,
and David his tens of thousands’?”(O)
12 David took these words to heart and was very much afraid of Achish king of Gath. 13 So he pretended to be insane(P) in their presence; and while he was in their hands he acted like a madman, making marks on the doors of the gate and letting saliva run down his beard.
14 Achish said to his servants, “Look at the man! He is insane! Why bring him to me? 15 Am I so short of madmen that you have to bring this fellow here to carry on like this in front of me? Must this man come into my house?”
