Ankyɛ biara na ne nuanom mmarima ne ne fifo bi kɔkaa ne ho wɔ hɔ. 2 Afoforo bi nso kɔkaa ne ho wɔ hɔ. Na saa nnipa no yɛ nnipa a ɔhaw da wɔn so anaa wɔn a wɔdede aka ne wɔn a asetena nkɔ wɔn yiye. Wɔbae ara kosii sɛ Dawid bɛyɛɛ ɔkannifo maa nnipa bɛyɛ sɛ ahannan.

3 Akyiri no, Dawid kɔɔ Mispe a ɛwɔ Moab kobisaa Moabhene se, “Wobɛma mʼagya ne me na abɛtena wo nkyɛn kosi sɛ mehu nea Onyankopɔn bɛyɛ ama me ana?” 4 Ɔhene no penee so maa Dawid awofo tenaa Moab mmere dodow a na Dawid te ne hintabea hɔ.

5 Nanso odiyifo Gad ka kyerɛɛ Dawid se, “Ntena hintabea hɔ. Kɔ Yuda asase so.” Enti Dawid kɔɔ Heret kwae mu.

6 Afei Saulo tee sɛ wɔahu Dawid ne ne nkurɔfo. Saa bere no, na ɔhene no te nnyedua bi ase wɔ Gibea bepɔw so a okura ne peaw na ne mpanyimfo atwa ne ho ahyia. 7 Osee wɔn sɛ, “Muntie, Benyamin mmarima!

9 Ɛhɔ na Edomni Doeg a na ɔne Saulo akofo gyina hɔ no kae se, “Mihuu Yisai ba no sɛ ɔbae Ahitub ba Ahimelek nkyɛn wɔ Nob. 10 Ahimelek bisaa Awurade nea Dawid nyɛ. Ɔsan maa no nnuan, na ɔde Filistini Goliat afoa no kaa ho maa no.”

Wokum Asɔfo No
11 Ɔhene no somaa sɛ wɔnkɔfa ɔsɔfo Ahimelek ne ne fifo a na wɔyɛ asɔfo wɔ Nob no nyinaa mmra. 12 Wɔbae no, Saulo kae se, “Tie! Ahitub ba.”
Obuae se, “Nana asɛm bɛn.”

13 Na Saulo bisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wo ne Dawid apam me ti so, na womaa no brodo ne afoa, san bisaa Awurade maa no. Adɛn nti na wohyɛ no nkuran sɛ ɔnyɛ adɔm ntia me na ɔmmɛtow nhyɛ me so wɔ ha?”

14 Ahimelek buae se, “Nana, mesrɛ mibisa sɛ, wʼasomfo yi nyinaa mu no, obi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ nokwafo te sɛ wʼase Dawid ana? Hwɛ ɔyɛ wʼawɛmfo nyinaa so safohene, na wobu no yiye wɔ wo fidua mu. 15 Ɛnyɛ saa da no ne da a edi kan a mabisa Awurade ama no. Dabi da! Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de sobo bɔ ne somfo ne ne fifo, efisɛ wʼakoa nnim saa asɛm yi ho biribiara.”

16 Na ɔhene kae se, “Ɔkwan biara so, wubewu. Ahimelek, wo ne wo fifo nyinaa bewuwu.”

17 Na ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ nʼawɛmfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no se, “Munkunkum Awurade asɔfo no nyinaa, efisɛ wɔn nso akɔ Dawid afa. Na wonim sɛ ɔreguan, nanso wɔanka ankyerɛ me.”

Nanso na ɔhene asraafo no mpɛ sɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ka Awurade asɔfo no.

18 Enti ɔhene hyɛɛ Doeg se, “Dan wo ho na kunkum asɔfo no.” Enti Edomni Doeg dan ne ho kunkum wɔn. Da no, okum mmarima a na wɔhyɛ sirikyi asɔfotade aduɔwɔtwe anum. 19 Afei, ɔkɔɔ Nob a ɛyɛ asɔfo no kurom, kokunkum asɔfo no fifo mmarima, mmea, mmofra ne nkokoaa, anantwi, mfurum ne nguan nyinaa.

20 Na Ahitub ba Ahimelek babarima baako a wɔfrɛ no Abiatar guan kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn. 21 Bere a ɔka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ Saulo akunkum Awurade asɔfo no, 22 Dawid teɛɛ mu se, “Na minim! Bere a mihuu Doeg wɔ hɔ saa da no, na minim sɛ ɔbɛka akyerɛ Saulo. Mprempren, mama wʼagya fifo nyinaa awuwu. 23 Wo ne me ntena ha, na mede me nkwa bɛbɔ wo ho ban, efisɛ onipa koro no ara na ɔrehwehwɛ yɛn baanu akum yɛn.”
