< Kings I 17 >

1 And the Philistines gather their armies to battle, and gather themselves to Socchoth of Judaea, and encamp between Socchoth and Azeca Ephermen.
Yeroo sana Filisxeemonni lolaaf humna isaanii walitti qabatanii Yihuudaa keessatti Sookootitti wal gaʼan. Isaanis Sakootii fi Azeeqaa gidduu Efes Damiim keessa qubatan.
2 And Saul and the men of Israel gather together, and they encamp in the valley, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
Saaʼolii fi namoonni Israaʼel immoo wal gaʼanii Sulula Elaa keessa qubatan; Filisxeemota waraanuufis hiriiran.
3 And the Philistines stand on the mountain on one side, and Israel stands on the mountain on the other side, and the valley was between them.
Filisxeemonni gaara tokko qabatan; Israaʼeloonni immoo tulluu kaan qabatan; gidduu isaanii immoo sululatu ture.
4 And there went forth a mighty man out of the army of the Philistines, Goliath, by name, out of Geth, his height [was] four cubits and a span.
Namichi beekamaan Gaatii dhufe kan maqaan isaa Gooliyaad jedhamu tokko qubata Filisxeemotaa keessaa gad baʼe. Hojjaan isaas dhundhuma jaʼaa fi taakkuu tokko ture.
5 And [he had] a helmet upon his head, and he wore a breastplate of chain armour; and the weight of his breastplate [was] five thousand shekels of brass and iron.
Innis gonfoo naasii mataatti kaaʼatee qomee naasii kan saqilii kuma shan ulfaatu uffata ture;
6 And greaves of grass [were] upon his legs, and a brazen target [was] between his shoulders.
miilla isaattis gambaallee naasii hidhatee gatiittii isaatti eeboo baadhata ture.
7 And the staff of his spear [was] like a weaver's beam, and the spear's head [was formed] of six hundred shekels of iron; and his armour-bearer went before him.
Somaan eeboo isaa furdaa akka muka wayya dhooftuun wayyaa itti martuu ture; sibiilli eeboo isaas saqilii dhibba jaʼa ulfaata ture. Baattuun gaachana isaas fuula isaa dura deema ture.
8 And he stood and cried to the army of Israel, and said to them, Why are you come forth to set yourselves in battle array against us? Am not I a Philistine, and you Hebrews of Saul? Choose for yourselves a man, and let him come down to me.
Gooliyaadis loltoota Israaʼel kanneen waraanaaf hiriiranitti iyyee akkana jedhe; “Isin waraanaaf hiriirtanii baʼuun keessan maaliif? Ani nama Filisxeem, isin immoo tajaajiltoota Saaʼol mitii? Ofii keessanii nama tokko filadhaatii inni gara kootti gad haa buʼu.
9 And if he shall be able to fight against me, and shall strike me, then will we be your servants: but if I should prevail and strike him, you shall be our servants, and serve us.
Yoo inni na lolee na ajjeesuu dandaʼe, nu isin jalatti bulla; yoo ani isa moʼadhee isa ajjeese garuu isin nu jalatti bultanii tajaajiltoota keenya taatu.”
10 And the Philistine said, Behold, I have defied the armies of Israel this very day: give me a man, and we will both of us fight in single combat.
Filisxeemichis, “Ani harʼa Israaʼeliin nan morkadha! Akka wal lolluuf nama tokko naa kennaa” jedhe.
11 And Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, and they were dismayed, and greatly terrified.
Saaʼolii fi Israaʼeloonni hundi yommuu dubbii kana dhagaʼanitti akka malee raafaman; ni sodaatanis.
12 [And David son of an Ephrathite said, this Eplarathite was of Bethleem Juda, and his name was Jessae, and he had eight sons. And the man passed for an old man amongst men in the days of Saul. ]
Daawit ilma Isseeyi namicha Efraataa kan Beetlihem Yihuudaa sanaa ti. Isseeyis ilmaan saddeeti qaba ture; innis bara Saaʼol keessa nama dulloomee jaare ture.
13 [And the three elder sons of Jessae went and followed Saul to the war, and the ] [names of his sons that went to the war were, Eliab his first-born, and his second Aminadab, and his third son Samma. ]
Ilmaan Isseey hangafoonni sadan Saaʼolin duukaa buʼanii lafa waraanaa dhaqanii turan; maqaan isaaniis inni hangafni Eliiyaab, inni lammaffaan Abiinaadaab, inni sadaffaan immoo Shamaa jedhama ture.
14 [And David himself ] [was the younger son, and the three elder followed Saul. ]
Daawit quxisuu hunda isaanii ture. Isaan hangafoonni sadan Saaʼolin duukaa buʼanii deeman;
15 [And David departed and returned from Saul, ] [to feed his father’s sheep in Bethleem; ]
Daawit garuu hoolota abbaa isaa tiksuuf jedhee Saaʼol biraa Beetlihemitti deddeebiʼaa ture.
16 [And the Philistine advanced morning and evening, and stood up forty days. ]
Namichi Filisxeem sunis guyyaa afurtama ganama ganamaa fi galgala galgala dhufee isaanitti of mulʼisa ture.
17 [And Jessae said to David, Take now to your brethren an ephah of this meal, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp and give them to your brothers. ]
Isseey immoo ilma isaa Daawitiin akkana jedhe; “Akaayii kana irraa iifii tokkoo fi buddeena kurnan kana fuudhiitii ariitiidhaan obboloota keetiif iddoo qubata isaaniitti geessi.
18 [And you shall carry to the captain of the thousand ] [these ten cheeses of milk, and you shall see how your brethren fare, and learn what they lack. ]
Baaduu kurnan kana immoo ajajaa kumaa isaaniitiif geessi. Haala obboloonni kee keessa jiran ilaaliitii oduu isaanii fidii kottu.
19 [And Saul himself and all the men of Israel were in the valley of the Oak, warring with the Philistines. ]
Isaan Saaʼolii fi namoota Israaʼel wajjin Sulula Elaa keessatti Filisxeemota lolaa jiru.”
20 [And David rose early in the morning, and left the sheep to a keeper, and took and went as Jessae commanded him, and he came to the trench and to the army as it was going out to fight, and they shouted for the battle. ]
Daawitis tiksee biratti bushaayee dhiisee ganama barii kaʼee nyaata sana qabatee akkuma Isseey isa ajajetti kaʼee qajeele. Innis utuu loltoonni dhaadachaa hiriiraan adda waraanaatti yaaʼaa jiranuu lafa qubataa gaʼe.
21 [And Israel and the Philistines formed their lines one opposite the other. ]
Israaʼelii fi Filisxeemonni tarree tarreedhaan fuula walitti garagalfatan.
22 [And David deposited his burden in the hand of a keeper, and ran to the line, and went and asked his brethren how they Were. ]
Daawitis miʼa isaa eegduu miʼaa biratti dhiisee gara adda waraanaatti fiigee obboloota isaa nagaa gaafate.
23 [And while he was speaking with them, behold the Amessaean advanced, Goliath by name, the Philistine of Geth, of the armies of the Philistines, and he spoke ] [as before, and David heard. ]
Utuma inni isaan wajjin haasaʼaa jiruu, Gooliyaad jagnichi Filisxeem namichi Gaati sun hiriira Filisxeemotaa keessaa dubbiidhuma kanaan dura dubbachaa ture sana dubbate; Daawitis isa dhagaʼe.
24 [And all the men of Israel when they saw the man fled from before him, and they were greatly terrified. ]
Israaʼeloonni hundinuu yommuu namicha arganitti sodaa guddaadhaan isa biraa baqatan.
25 [And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man that comes up? for he has reproached Israel and has come up; and it shall be that the man who shall strike him, the king shall enrich him with great wealth and shall give him his daughter, and shall make his father’s house free in Israel. ]
Israaʼeloonnis, “Isin akka namichi kun as deddeebiʼaa jiru argituu? Inni dhugumaan Israaʼeliin morkachuuf dhufe. Mootiin nama isa ajjeesuuf qabeenya guddaa kenna. Intala isaa illee itti heerumsiisa; maatii abbaa isaas akka Israaʼel keessatti gibira hin gabbarre godha” waliin jechaa turan.
26 [and David spoke to the men who stood with him saying, Shall it indeed be done thus to the man who shall strike that Philistine, and take away reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he has defied the army of the living God? ]
Daawit namoota isa bira dhadhaabachaa turaniin, “Nama namicha Filisxeem kana ajjeesee Israaʼel irraa salphina kana fuudhuuf maaltu godhama? Filisxeemichi dhagna hin qabatin kun akka loltoota Waaqa jiraataa doorsisuuf inni eenyuu?” jedhee gaafate.
27 [And the people spoke to him according to this Word, saying Thus shall it be done to the man Who shall strike him. ]
Namoonnis, “Wanni nama isa ajjeesuuf godhamu kanuma” jedhanii dubbiidhuma duraan dubbachaa turan sana irra deebiʼanii itti himan.
28 [And Eliab his elder brother heard as he spoke to the men, and Eliab was very angry with David and said, Why have you thus come down, and with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the naughtiness of your heart, for you are come down to see the battle. ]
Eliiyaab hangafni Daawit inni jalqabaa Daawit namoota wajjin dubbachaa akka jiru yommuu argetti aaree gubatee akkana jedhe; “Ati maal gochuu as gad buute? Hoolota muraasa sana gammoojjii keessatti eenyutti dhiiftee dhufte? Ani of tuulummaa keetii fi hammina garaa keetii nan beeka; ati waraana ilaaluu dhufteetii.”
29 [And David said what have I done now? ] [Have I no business here? ]
Daawit immoo, “Ani amma maalin godhe? Ani dubbachuu illee hin dandaʼuu?” jedhe.
30 [And he turned from him towards another, and he spoke after the same manner; and the people answered him ] [after the former manner. ]
Ergasiis gara nama biraatti garagalee waanuma duraa sana gaafate; namoonnis akkuma jalqabaatti deebisaniif.
31 [And the Words which David spoke were heard and were reported ] [to Saul. And he took him to himself. ]
Wanni Daawit jechaa tures dhagaʼamee Saaʼol qaqqabe; Saaʼolis isa waamsise.
32 And David said to Saul, Let not, I pray you, the heart of my lord be dejected within him: your servant will go, and fight with this Philistine.
Daawitis Saaʼoliin, “Sababii namicha Filisxeem kanaatiif namni tokko iyyuu abdii hin kutatin; ani garbichi kee dhaqee isa nan waraana” jedhe.
33 And Saul said to David, You will not in anyway be able to go against this Philistine to fight with him, for you are a mere youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
Saaʼolis Daawitiin, “Ati dhaqxee Filisxeemicha kana waraanuu hin dandeessu; ati ijoollee dha; inni immoo ijoollummaa isaatii jalqabee loltuu ture” jedhe.
34 And David said to Saul, Your servant was tending the flock for his father; and when a lion came and a she-bear, and took a sheep out of the flock,
Daawit garuu Saaʼoliin akkana jedhe; “Garbichi kee hoolota abbaa isaa tiksaa ture. Yeroo leenci yookaan amaakenni dhufee bushaayee keessaa tokko fudhatutti,
35 then I went forth after him, and struck him, and drew [the spoil] out of his mouth: and as he rose up against me, then I caught hold of his throat, and struck him, and killed him.
ani isa faana fiigee dhaʼee hoolaa sana afaan isaatii nan buusisan ture. Yoo inni natti gara gale immoo kokkee isaa qabee dhaʼee isa ajjeesa ture.
36 Your servant struck both the lion and the bear, and the uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them: shall I not go and strike him, and remove this day a reproach from Israel? For who [is] this uncircumcised one, who has defied the army of the living God?
Ani garbichi kee leencaa fi amaaketa ajjeeseera; Filisxeemichi dhagna hin qabatin kunis akkuma tokkoo isaanii taʼa; inni loltoota Waaqa jiraataa doorsiseeraatii.
37 The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this uncircumcised Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord shall be with you.
Waaqayyo inni irree leencaatii fi irree amaaketaa jalaa na baase sun harka Filisxeemicha kanaa jalaas na baasa.” Saaʼolis Daawitiin, “Dhaqi, Waaqayyo si wajjin haa taʼu” jedhe.
38 And Saul clothed David with a military coat, and [put] his brazen helmet on his head.
Ergasiis Saaʼol uffata lolaa kan ofii isaa Daawititti uffise. Qomee sibiilaa itti uffisee gonfoo naasii mataa isaatti kaaʼeef.
39 And he girded David with his sword over his coat: and he made trial walking [with them] once and again: and David said to Saul, I shall not be able to go with these, for I have not proved [them]: so they remove them from him.
Daawitis sababii duraan itti fayyadamee hin beekneef uffata Saaʼol irratti goraadee hidhatee asii fi achi deemuu yaale. Innis Saaʼoliin, “Ani waanan duraan itti fayyadamee hin beekneef hidhadhee deemuu hin dandaʼu” jedhe. Kanaafuu of irraa baase.
40 And he took his staff in his hand, and he chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's scrip which he had for his store, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.
Ergasii ulee isaa harkatti qabatee dhagaa soofamaa shan lagaa filatee kiisii korojoo tikseetti naqate; furrisa isaas harkatti qabatee gara Filisxeemichaatti dhiʼaate.
41 And the Philistine advanced and drew near to David, and a man bearing his shield went before him, and the Philistine looked on.
Namichi Filisxeem sunis namicha miʼa lolaa isaaf baatu of dura qajeelchee Daawititti dhiʼaate.
42 And Goliath saw David, and despised him; for he was a lad, and ruddy, with a fair countenance.
Innis Daawitin ilaalee akka inni mucaa diimaa miidhagaa taʼe hubatee isa tuffate.
43 And the Philistine said to David, Am I as a dog, that you come against me with a staff and stones? [and David said, Nay, but worse than a dog.] And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Filisxeemichis, “Kan ati ulee qabattee natti dhuftu ani sareedhaa?” jedhee waaqota ofii isaatiin Daawitin abaare.
44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
Akkasumas, “As kottu; ani foon kee allaattii samiitii fi bineensota bosonaatiif nan kennaa!” jedheen.
45 And David said to the Philistine, You come to me with sword, and with spear, and with shield; but I come to you in the name of the Lord God of hosts of the army of Israel, which you have defied
Kana irratti Daawit Filisxeemichaan akkana jedhe; “Ati kunoo goraadee, eeboo fi bodee qabatee natti dhufta; ani garuu maqaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu, Waaqa loltoota Israaʼel kan ati doorsifte sanaatiin sittin dhufa.
46 this day. And the Lord shall deliver you this day into my hand; and I will kill you, and take away your head from off you, and will give your limbs and the limbs of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that there is a God in Israel.
Harʼa Waaqayyo dabarsee harka kootti si kenna; anis si ajjeesee mataa kee sirraan kuta. Ani harʼa reeffa Filisxeemotaa allaattii samiitii fi bineensota lafaatiif nan kenna; addunyaan hundis akka Israaʼel keessa Waaqni jiru ni beeka.
47 And all this assembly shall know that the Lord delivers not by sword or spear, for the battle [is] the Lord's, and the Lord will deliver you into our hands.
Namoonni asitti walitti qabaman hundi akka Waaqayyo goraadee fi eeboodhaan nama hin baafne ni baru; sababii lolli kun kan Waaqayyoo taʼeef inni dabarsee harka keenyatti isin kenna.”
48 And the Philistine arose and went to meet David.
Yommuu Filisxeemichi isa dhaʼuuf dhufettis Daawit isa loluuf fiigee adda waraanaa seene.
49 And David stretched out his hand to his scrip, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone penetrated through the helmet into his forehead, and he fell upon his face to the ground.
Harka isaas korojoo isaa keessa kaaʼee dhagaa tokko fudhatee furrisaan darbatee adda Filisxeemichaa dhaʼe. Dhagaan sunis adda isaa keessa bade; Filisxeemichis addaan lafatti gombifame.
50 [So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him, and there was no sword in the hand of David. ]
Daawit akkasiin furrisaa fi dhagaadhaan Filisxeemicha moʼate; Daawit utuma goraadee of harkaa hin qabaatin Filisxeemicha dhaʼee ajjeese.
51 And David ran, and stood upon him, and took his sword, and killed him, and cut off his head: and the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, and they fled.
Daawit fiigee Filisxeemicha irra ejjete. Goraadee Filisxeemichaas manʼee keessaa luqqisee baafate. Erga isa ajjeesee booddees goraadee sanaan mataa isaa irraa kute. Filisxeemonni yommuu akka goonni isaanii duʼe arganitti of irra garagalanii baqatan.
52 And the men of Israel and Juda arose, and shouted and pursued them as far as the entrance to Geth, and as far as the gate of Ascalon: and the slain men of the Philistines fell in the way of the gates, both to Geth, and to Accaron.
Ergasii namoonni Israaʼelii fi namoonni Yihuudaa kaʼanii dhaadachaa hamma balbala Gaatii fi karra Eqroonitti Filisxeemota ariʼan. Reeffi Filisxeemotaas karaa Shaʼarayiimitti geessu irratti hamma Gaatii fi Eqroonitti harcaʼe.
53 And the men of Israel returned from pursuing after the Philistines, and they destroyed their camp.
Israaʼeloonni yommuu Filisxeemota ariʼuu irraa deebiʼanitti qubata isaanii saaman.
54 And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.
Daawitis mataa Filisxeemichaa fudhatee gara Yerusaalemitti fide; miʼa lolaa Filisxeemichaas dunkaana ofii isaatti galfate.
55 And when Saul saw David going out to meet the Philistine, he said to Abener the captain of the host, Whose son is this youth? and Abener said, As your sould lives, O King, I know not.
Saaʼol yommuu akka Daawit Filisxeemicha loluuf deemu argetti, Abneer ajajaa waraana Israaʼeliin, “Abneer, gurbaan kun ilma eenyuu ti?” jedhe. Abneeris, “Yaa Mootii, duʼa kee ti ani hin beeku” jedhee deebise.
56 And the king said, Do you ask whose son this youth is.
Mootichis, “Egaa akka gurbaan kun ilma eenyuu taʼe iyyaafadhuuttii bira gaʼi” jedheen.
57 And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abener took him and brought him before Saul, and the head of the Philistine was in his hand.
Akkuma Daawit Filisxeemicha ajjeesee deebiʼeen, Abneer Daawitii mataa Filisxeemichaa harkatti qabatee jiru fuula Saaʼol duratti dhiʼeesse.
58 And Saul said to him, Whose son are you, young man? and David said, The son of your servant Jessae the Bethleemite.
Saaʼolis, “Gurbayyoo ati ilma eenyuu ti?” jedhee gaafate. Daawit immoo, “Ani ilma garbicha keetii ilma Isseeyi namicha Beetlihem sanaa ti” jedhee deebise.
