9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
1Dia nitsangana Davida ka lasa; fa Jonatana kosa nankany an-tanàna.
2 Ary Davida tonga tany Noba, tany amin’ i Ahimeleka mpisorona; ary toran-kovitra Ahimeleka, raha nihaona tamin’ i Davida, ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana no mandeha irery ianao, fa tsy misy manaraka anao?
3Dia hoy Davida tamin’ i Ahimeleka mpisorona: Ny mpanjaka efa nanome raharaha ahy, ka hoy izy tamiko: Aoka tsy ho fantatr’ olona ny raharaha nanirahako sy nandidiako anao; ka dia nasaiko nankary ny zatovoko.
4Koa inona no misy ato aminao? Omeo mofo dimy aho ho etỳ an-tanako, na izay misy.
5Ary ny mpisorona namaly an’ i Davida hoe: Tsy misy mofo fihinana ato amiko, fa mofo masìna ihany no ato, ka raha mba nifady vehivavy ahay mantsy ny zatovo.
6Ary Davida namaly ny mpisorona ka nanao taminy hoe: Eny, fa hatramin’ ny hateloana efa tsy niara-nitoetra tamim-behivavy rahateo izahay; ary tamin’ izaho niainga dia masìna ny fanaky ny zatovo; ary na dia tsy masìna aza ny lalana, dia hohamasinina anio izy noho ny fanaka.
7Ary ny mpisorona nanome azy mofo masìna; fa tsy nisy mofo teo, afa-tsy ny mofo aseho, izay nalainy teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, mba hasiana mofo mafana tamin’ ny andro nanesorana azy.
8(Nefa nisy anankiray tamin’ ny mpanompon’ i Saoly teo tamin’ izany andro izany, voahazona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, Doega Edomita no anarany; lehiben’ ny mpiandrin’ i Saoly izy.)
9Ary hoy Davida tamin’ i Ahimeleka: Tsy misy lefona na sabatra va eto aminao? fa izaho tsy nitondra ny sabatro na ny fiadiako etỳ amiko, satria nahamaika ny raharahan’ ny mpanjaka.
10Fa hoy ny mpisorona: Ny sabatr’ i Goliata Filistina, ilay novonoinao tao amin’ ny lohasaha Elaha, indro, fa mifono lamba ao ivohon’ ny efoda izy; ka raha iny no ho entinao, dia ento; fa tsy misy afa-tsy iny eto. Ary hoy Davida: Tsy misy tahaka iny, fa omeo ahy.
11Ary Davida niainga nandositra tamin’ izany andro izany mba tsy ho azon’ i Saoly, dia nankany amin’ i Akisy, mpanjakan’ i Gata.
12Ary hoy ny mpanompon’ i Akisy taminy: Tsy ity moa no Davida, mpanjakan’ ny tany? Tsy izy va no nandihizany sy nifampihirany hoe: Saoly nahafaty arivoarivo, Fa Davida nahafaty alinalina?
13Ary dia nalatsak’ i Davida tao am-pony izany teny izany, ka natahotra an’ i Akisy, mpanjakan’ i Gata, indrindra izy.
14Dia nody adala teo anatrehany izy ka nanao tahaka ny olona very saina teo aminy, fa nanoratsoratra teo amin’ ny lela-vavahady izy, sady navelany hitsororoka tamin’ ny somony ny iviny.
15Ary hoy Akisy tamin’ ny mpanompony: He! hitanareo fa very saina io lehilahy io, ka nahoana no nentinareo etỳ amiko izy?
16Izaho moa mitady olona very saina, no nitondranareo ity olona very saina ity mba hanondrana eto anatrehako? Moa hiditra ato an-tranoko va ilehio?
