Daudi hakumwacha hai mwanaume au mwanamke ili apate kuletwa Gathi, kwa maana Daudi aliwaza, “Wanaweza kujulisha habari zetu na kusema, ‘Hivi ndivyo alivyofanya Daudi.’ ” Hii ndiyo ilikuwa desturi yake wakati wote aliishi katika nchi ya Wafilisti.
1 Samuel 27:11 in English
1 Samuel 27:11 · Berean Standard Bible
David did not leave a man or woman alive to be brought to Gath, for he said, “Otherwise they will report us, saying, ‘This is what David did.’” And this was David’s custom the whole time he lived in Philistine territory.
Context
9Kila mara Daudi aliposhambulia eneo, hakubakiza hai mwanaume wala mwanamke, lakini alichukua kondoo na ngʼombe, punda na ngamia, na nguo. Kisha akarudi kwa Akishi. 10Akishi alipomuuliza, “Je leo umeshambulia wapi?” Daudi humjibu, “Dhidi ya Negebu ya Yuda,” au wakati mwingine husema, “Dhidi ya Negebu ya Yerameeli,” au “Dhidi ya Negebu ya Wakeni.” 11Daudi hakumwacha hai mwanaume au mwanamke ili apate kuletwa Gathi, kwa maana Daudi aliwaza, “Wanaweza kujulisha habari zetu na kusema, ‘Hivi ndivyo alivyofanya Daudi.’ ” Hii ndiyo ilikuwa desturi yake wakati wote aliishi katika nchi ya Wafilisti. 12Akishi akamsadiki Daudi na kuwaza moyoni mwake, akasema, “Daudi amekuwa kitu cha kuchukiza kabisa kwa watu wake, Waisraeli, hivi kwamba atakuwa mtumishi wangu milele.”
