< 1 Kings 20 >
1 Ben-hadad, king of Aram, called up his entire army. Together with thirty-two kings and their assembled horses and chariots, he marched to besiege Samaria, to fight against it.
Oo Benhadad oo ahaa boqorkii Suuriya wuxuu soo urursaday ciidankiisii oo dhan, waxaana isaga la jiray laba iyo soddon boqor, iyo fardo iyo gaadhifardood; oo intuu soo kacay ayuu Samaariya hareereeyey, wuuna la diriray.
2 He sent messengers to Ahab, king of Israel, in the city to tell him, “This is what Ben-hadad says:
Markaasuu magaaladii farriin u diray oo wuxuu boqorkii dalka Israa'iil oo Axaab ahaa ku yidhi, Anigoo Benhadad ah, waxaan kugu leeyahay,
3 Your silver and gold belong to me now, and your best wives and children also belong to me!”
Lacagtaada iyo dahabkaaga anigaa iska leh, oo naagahaaga, iyo carruurtaada, xataa kuwa ugu fiican anigaa iska leh.
4 “It's as you say, my lord the king,” the king of Israel replied. “I am yours, as well as everything that belongs to me.”
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil ugu jawaabay, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, waa sidaad u tidhi, oo aniga iyo waxayga oo dhanba adigaa iska leh.
5 The messengers returned and said, “This is what Ben-hadad says: I have sent you a message demanding you give me your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children.
Oo wargeeyayaashii haddana way soo noqdeen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Benhadad wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Xaqiiqa waan kuu soo cid diray oo waxaan kugu idhi, Waa inaad ii soo dhiibto lacagtaada, iyo dahabkaaga, iyo naagahaaga, iyo carruurtaadaba,
6 But around this time tomorrow I'm going to send my men to search your palace and the homes of your officials. They will take and carry away everything you see as valuable.”
laakiinse berrito hadda oo kale waxaan kuu soo diri doonaa addoommadayda, oo waxay soo baadhi doonaan gurigaaga iyo guryaha addoommadaadaba, oo wax alla wixii kula wanaagsan gacantooday ku dhigi doonaan, wayna kaa soo qaadi doonaan.
7 The king of Israel called all the elders of the land and told them, “Look how this man is trying to cause trouble! When he demanded my wives and my children, my silver and my gold, I didn't say no.”
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil u soo yeedhay odayaashii dalka oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan idin baryayaaye, bal eega oo ogaada sida ninkanu iiga belaayo doonayo, waayo, wuxuu u soo cid dirsaday naagahayga iyo carruurtayda, iyo lacagtayda, iyo dahabkayga, oo anna uma aanan diidin.
8 All the elders and all the people present responded, “Don't listen to him. Don't agree to his demands.”
Markaasaa odayaashii oo dhan iyo dadkii oo dhammu waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Ha dhegaysan, hana oggolaan.
9 So the king told Ben-hadad's messengers, “Tell my lord the king: Everything you demanded at first your servant will do, but I cannot agree to this latest demand.” The messengers took the reply back to him.
Sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu ku yidhi kuwii Benhadad warka ka keenay, Boqorka sayidkayga ah u sheega oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Dhammaan wixii aad markii hore ii soo dirsatay anoo addoonkaaga ah, waan yeelayaa, laakiinse waxan yeeli kari maayo. Oo wargeeyayaashiina way ka tageen, oo haddana war kalay u keeneen isagii.
10 Ben-hadad responded to him, “May the gods do as much to me and more if there remains enough dust in Samaria to give my subjects a handful each!”
Benhadad baa u soo cid diray oo ku yidhi, Sidaas iyo si ka sii daranba ilaahyadu ha igu sameeyeen haddii ciidda Samaariya sacab sacab u gaadho dadka ila socda oo dhan.
11 The king of Israel replied, “Tell him this: A man putting on his armor should not brag like one who is taking it off.”
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil wuxuu ugu jawaabay, U sheega oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Ka hubka dagaalka xidhaa yuusan u faanin sidii midka iska fura.
12 Ben-hadad received this message while he and the kings were drinking in their tents. He immediately gave the order to his officers, “Get ready to attack!” So they prepared to attack the city.
Markii Benhadad farriintii maqlay, isagoo khamri teendhooyinka kula cabbaya boqorradii ayuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, War weerar isu diyaariya. Oo iyana markaasay magaaladii weerar isugu diyaariyeen.
13 At the same time a prophet came up to Ahab, king of Israel, and told him, “This is what the Lord says: You see this massive army? Just watch, because I will make you victorious today, and you will be convinced that I am the Lord.”
Oo bal eeg, nebi baa u soo dhowaaday boqorkii dalka Israa'iil oo Axaab ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadkan faraha badan oo dhan ma aragtay? Bal ogow, kulligood adigaan maanta kuu soo gacangelinayaa, oo markaasaad ogaan doontaa inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga.
14 “But who's going to do this?” Ahab asked. The prophet answered, “This is what the Lord says: It will be the young officers under the district commanders.” “And who's going to start the battle?” he asked. The prophet replied, “You are!”
Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu yidhi, Oo yuu iigu soo gacangelinayaa? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Amiirradii gobollada addoommadooda ayaan kuugu soo gacangelinayaa. Oo haddana wuxuu yidhi, Oo dagaalka yaa bilaabaya? Wuxuu yidhi, Adiga.
15 So Ahab called up the 232 young officers of the district commanders, and assembled the 7,000 soldiers that made up Israel's army.
Markaasuu tiriyey amiirradii gobollada addoommadooda, oo waxay ahaayeen laba boqol iyo laba iyo soddon; oo dabadoodna wuxuu tiriyey dadkii oo dhan, oo dadkii dalka Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay noqdeen toddoba kun.
16 They left at noon while Ben-hadad and the thirty-two kings with him were busy getting drunk in their tents.
Oo duhurkii ayay baxeen. Laakiinse Benhadad khamri buu cabbayay oo teendhooyinkii ku sakhraamayay, isaga iyo boqorradii la jirayba, kuwaasoo ahaa laba iyo soddonkii boqor oo isaga caawinayay.
17 The young officers of the district commanders took the lead. The scouts Ben-hadad had sent out came and reported to him, “Enemy soldiers are advancing from Samaria.”
Oo waxaa markii hore soo baxay amiirradii gobollada addoommadoodii; oo Benhadadna cid buu diray, oo waxaa loo soo sheegay oo lagu yidhi, Rag baa Samaariya ka soo baxay.
18 “If they're coming in peace, take them alive,” he ordered. “If they're coming to attack, take them alive.”
Isna wuxuu yidhi, Hadday nabad u soo baxeen iyo hadday dagaal u soo baxeenba iyagoo nool qabqabta.
19 The young officers of the district commanders advanced from the city, followed by the army.
Sidaas daraaddeed kuwanu magaaladii way ka soo baxeen, waxayna ahaayeen amiirradii gobollada addoommadoodii iyo ciidankii iyaga daba socday.
20 Each man killed his opponent, and the Arameans ran away. The Israelites chased them, but Ben-hadad, king of Aram, escaped on horseback with his cavalry.
Oo kulligood mid waluba ninkiisii ayuu dilay; markaasaa ciidanka Suuriya cararay, oo ciidankii Israa'iilna way eryadeen; oo Benhadad oo ahaa boqorkii Suuriya faras buu fuulay oo rag fardooley ah la baxsaday.
21 Then the king of Israel came out and attacked the horses and chariots. He inflicted a great defeat on the Arameans.
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil baxay oo baabbi'iyey fardihii iyo gaadhifardoodkii, oo ciidankii Suuriyana aad buu u laayay.
22 Later on the prophet came to the king of Israel and told him, “Go and reinforce your defenses, and check what you need to do, because in the spring the king of Aram will come and attack you again.”
Markaasaa nebigii u soo dhowaaday boqorkii dalka Israa'iil oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Tag oo soo xoogayso, oo bal ogow, oo eeg waxaad samaynaysid, waayo, markii sannaddu soo wareegto ayaa boqorka Suuriya kugu soo duuli doonaa.
23 In the meantime the king of Aram's officers told him, “Their gods are gods of the mountains. That's why they could defeat us. But if we fight them in the lowlands, we can beat them.
Oo boqorkii Suuriya addoommadiisii waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, War ilaahoodu waa ilaahii buuraha oo sidaas daraaddeed ayay inooga xoog bateen. Haddaba aynu bannaanka kula dirirno oo markaas hubaal waynu ka xoog badnaanaynaa.
24 You should do this: remove each of the kings from their positions and replace them with commanders.
Oo waxaad yeeshaa, boqorrada nin walba meeshiisii ka saar, oo meeshoodii waxaad gelisaa taliyayaal.
25 You also have to raise another army to replace the one you lost—horse for horse, chariot for chariot. Then we can fight them in the lowlands and we will definitely beat them.” Ben-hadad listened to their advice and did as they said.
Oo waxaad tirsataa ciidan le'eg ciidankii kaa le'day, oo faras kasta meeshiisii faras geli, gaadhifaras kastana meeshiisii gaadhifaras geli; oo markaasaynu iyaga bannaanka kula diriraynaa, oo hubaal waynu ka adkaanaynaa, oo isna codkoodii buu maqlay oo saasuu yeelay.
26 When spring came Ben-hadad called up the Aramean army and went to attack Israel at Aphek.
Oo markii sannaddii soo wareegtay ayaa Benhadad tiriyey ciidankii Suuriya, oo intuu Afeeq tegey ayuu la diriray ciidankii Israa'iil.
27 The Israelite army was also called up and provided with supplies. They went to confront the Arameans. But when the Israelites set up their camp opposite the enemy they looked like couple of flocks of goats in comparison with the Aramean army that filled the whole land.
Oo ciidankii Israa'iilna waa la tiriyey, oo saadkoodiina waa la siiyey, markaasay iyagii ka hor tageen; oo ciidankii Israa'iilna hortooday degeen iyagoo la moodo sidii laba xaymood oo yaryar oo waxarro ah, laakiinse ciidankii Suuriya dalkoo dhan bay buuxiyeen.
28 Then the man of God came to the king of Israel and said, “This is what the Lord says: Because the Arameans have said, ‘The Lord is only a god of the mountains and not of the valleys,’ I will make you victorious over the whole of this massive army. Then you will be convinced that I am the Lord.”
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil waxaa u yimid oo la hadlay nin Ilaah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Reer Suuriya waxay yidhaahdeen, Rabbigu waa Ilaahii buuraha, laakiinse ma aha Ilaahii dooxooyinka, oo sidaas daraaddeed dadkan faraha badan oo dhan adigaan kuu soo gacangelinayaa, oo markaasaad ogaan doontaan inaan anigu ahay Rabbiga.
29 The armies camped opposite each other for seven days. On the seventh day the battle took place. The Israelites killed 100,000 of the Aramean infantry in one day.
Oo intii toddoba maalmood ah ayay is-hor degganaayeen. Oo waxay noqotay in maalintii toddobaad dagaalkii bilaabmay, oo maalin keliya ayaa ciidankii Israa'iil waxay dadkii Suuriya ka laayeen boqol kun oo nin oo lug ah.
30 The rest ran away to the town of Aphek, where a wall collapsed on 27,000 of those that remained. Ben-hadad also ran to the town and hid in an inside room.
Laakiinse intoodii kale Afeeq ayay u carareen oo magaaladay galeen, oo toddoba iyo labaatan kun oo nin oo ka hadhayna waxaa ku soo dhacay derbigii. Markaasaa Benhadad cararay oo magaaladuu galay isagoo ugu gudbaya qol ilaa qol.
31 Ben-hadad's officers said to him, “Look, we've heard that the Israelite kings are merciful. Let's surrender to the king of Israel, wearing sackcloth around our waists and ropes on our heads. Maybe he will let you live.”
Oo addoommadiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, waxaannu maqalnay in boqorrada dalka Israa'iil yihiin boqorro naxariis badan, haddaba waannu ku baryaynaaye aannu joonyado guntanno, oo madaxana aannu xadhko ku duudduubanno, oo aannu boqorka dalka Israa'iil u baxno, waxaa laga yaabaa inuu naftaada badbaadiyee.
32 So wearing sackcloth around their waists and ropes on their heads, they went and surrendered to the king of Israel, and told him, “Your servant Ben-hadad asks, ‘Please let me live.’” The king replied “Is he still alive? I think of him as my brother.”
Sidaas daraaddeed waxay guntadeen joonyado, madaxyadana waxay ku duudduubteen xadhko, oo waxay u yimaadeen boqorkii dalka Israa'iil, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Addoonkaagii Benhadad wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Waan ku baryayaaye maanta i bixi. Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, War miyuu weli nool yahay? Isagu waa walaalkay.
33 The men thought this was a good sign and they immediately took the king at his word, saying, “Yes, Ben-hahad is your brother.” “Go and fetch him!” said the king. So Ben-hadad came out of hiding and surrendered to Ahab, who pulled him up into his chariot.
Oo nimankiina aad bay ugu dadaaleen inay calaamad wanaagsan ka maqlaan, oo waxay ku dhaqsadeen inay qabsadaan in taasu maankiisa ku jirto iyo in kale, kolkaasay waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Benhadad waa walaalkaa. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Taga oo ii keena. Markaasaa Benhadad isagii u soo baxay, oo isna gaadhifaraskiisii ayuu soo fuushiyey.
34 Ben-hadad said to him, “I will return the towns my father took from your father, and you can organize your own places for trade in Damascus, like my father did in Samaria.” “By making this agreement I set you free,” Ahab replied. He made a treaty with Ben-hadad and let him go.
Markaasaa Benhadad wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan kuu celinayaa magaalooyinkii aabbahay aabbahaa ka dhacay, oo waxaad Dimishaq ka samaysataa jidad sidii aabbahay Samaariya uga samaystay oo kale. Axaabna wuxuu ku yidhi, Axdiganaan kugu sii daynayaa. Sidaasuu axdi ula dhigtay, wuuna iska sii daayay.
35 Following a message he received from the Lord, one of the sons of the prophets said to his colleague, “Please hit me.” But the man refused to hit him.
Oo nin qoonkii nebiyada ka mid ah ayaa saaxiibkiis ku yidhi, War i dil, waan ku baryayaaye, taasuna waxay ahayd eray xagga Rabbiga ka yimid, laakiinse ninkii waa diiday inuu dilo.
36 So the prophet told him, “Since you have not done what the Lord said, once you leave me a lion is going to kill you.” When the man left, a lion came and killed him.
Kolkaasuu ku yidhi, Adigu ma aadan addeecin Eraygii Rabbiga oo sidaas daraaddeed bal ogow haddiiba markii aad iga tagto waxaa ku dili doona libaax. Oo haddiiba markuu isagii ka tegey ayaa waxaa helay libaax, wuuna dilay isagii.
37 The prophet found another man and said, “Please hit me!” So the man hit him, wounding him.
Oo haddana wuxuu helay nin kale, markaasuu ku yidhi, War waan ku baryayaaye i dil. Markaasaa ninkii intuu wax ku dhuftay dhaawacay.
38 Then the prophet went and stood beside the road, waiting for the king. He had disguised himself with a bandage over his eyes.
Markaasaa nebigii tegey oo boqorkii ku sugay jidka agtiisa, wuuna isku beddelay calalkiisii madaxa oo uu indhaha ku qariyey.
39 As the king was passing by, he shouted out to the king: “Your servant had gone out fighting right in the middle of the battle, when all of a sudden a man came over with a prisoner and told me, ‘Guard this man! If for any reason he escapes, you will pay for his life with your life, or you will be fined a talent of silver.’
Oo markii boqorkii soo ag maray ayuu boqorkii u qayliyey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigoo addoonkaaga ahu waxaan dhex galay dagaalkii, oo bal eeg nin baa igu soo leexday, nin buuna ii keenay, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Ninkan dhawr; oo si kastaba ha noqotee haddii hadhow la waayo, naftaadaa loo qisaasayaa, ama haddii kaleto waxaad bixin doontaa talanti lacag ah.
40 But while your servant was busy with other things, the man got away.” “So that will be your punishment then,” the king of Israel told him. “You have sentenced yourself.”
Oo anigoo addoonkaaga ah intii aan mashquul ku ahaa halkan iyo halkaas ayaa ninkii iska tegey. Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil ku yidhi, Xukunkaagu saasuu ahaanayaa, waayo, adaa goostay.
41 Then the prophet quickly took off the bandage from his eyes, and the king of Israel recognized he was one of the prophets.
Markaasuu dhaqsaday oo calalkiina indhihii ka qaaday, boqorkiina wuu gartay inuu isagu qoonkii nebiyada ka mid ahaa.
42 He told the king, “This is what the Lord says: You have let go a man I had decided should die. Therefore you will pay for his life with your life, your people for his people.”
Markaasuu isagii ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu ku leeyahay, Ninkii aan baabba'a ku xukumay ayaad gacantaada ka sii daysay, oo sidaas daraaddeed naftaadu waxay u dhiman doontaa naftiisa, dadkaaguna dadkiisa.
43 The king of Israel went home to Samaria, sulking and infuriated.
Markaasaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil wuxuu u kacay gurigiisii isagoo calool xun, oo xanaaqsan, oo Samaariya buu yimid.
