1 Samuel 9
1 There was a wealthy and influential man from the tribe of Benjamin, whose name was Kish son of Abiel, son of Zeror, son of Bekorath, son of Aphiah, a descendant of Benjamin.
Haddaba waxaa jiray nin reer Benyaamiin ah, oo magiciisana waxaa la odhan jiray Qiish, oo wuxuu ahaa ina Abii'eel, ina Seroor, ina Bekoorad, ina Afiyax, oo reer Benyaamiin ah, kaasoo ahaa nin xoog leh oo geesi ah.
2 Kish had a son called Saul, the most handsome young man in all of Israel. He was head and shoulders taller than anyone else.
Oo isna wuxuu lahaa wiil la yidhaahdo Saa'uul, oo ahaa nin dhallinyar oo wanaagsan. Oo reer binu Israa'iilna kuma jirin qof isaga ka wanaagsan. Garbihiisa iyo waxa ka sarreeyaaba way ka dheeraayeen dadka kale oo dhan.
3 One time the donkeys of Saul's father Kish went astray. Kish told to his son Saul, “Please go and look for the donkeys. You can take one of the servants with you.”
Qiish oo ahaa Saa'uul aabbihiis ayaa dameerihiisii ka lumeen. Markaasaa Qiish wuxuu wiilkiisii Saa'uul ku yidhi, midiidinnada midkood kaxee, oo kac, oo dameerihii doondoon.
4 Saul searched the hill country of Ephraim and then the land of Shalishah, but didn't find the donkeys. He and the servant searched the region of Shaalim, but they weren't there. Then they searched the land of Benjamin, and they still couldn't find them.
Markaasuu dhex maray dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, oo haddana wuxuu dhex maray dalkii reer Shaalishaah, laakiinse dameerihii ma ay helin. Markaasay haddana dhex mareen dalkii reer Shacaliim, oo halkaasna ma ay joogin. Oo haddana wuxuu dhex maray dalkii reer Benyaamiin, laakiinse halkaasna kama ay helin.
5 When they got to the land of Zuph, Saul told his servant, “Come on, let's go back, otherwise my father won't be worrying about the donkeys, but about us.”
Oo markay yimaadeen dalkii reer Suuf, Saa'uul wuxuu midiidinkiisii la socday ku yidhi, Ina keen aan noqonnee, waayo, waaba intaasoo aabbahay dameerihii ka hawo go'aa oo innaga inaga fikiraaye.
6 But the servant replied, “Hold on! There's a man of God here in this town. He's very well thought of, and everything he says comes true. Let's go and see him. Maybe he can tell us which way we should take.”
Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, magaaladan waxaa jooga nin Ilaah, oo isna waxaa weeyaan nin aad loo ciseeyo, oo wax alla wixii uu yidhaahdaaba run bay noqdaan, haddaba bal ina keen aynu u tagnee; mindhaa wax waa inooga sheegi karaa jidka aan mari doonno.
7 “But if we do go, what can we give him?” Saul replied. “All the bread in our bags is gone. We don't have anything to take to the man of God. What do we have with us?”
Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, War haddaynu u tagno maxaan u geeynaa ninka? Waayo, kibistii weelasheenna waa ka dhammaatay, oo ma hayno hadiyad aan u geeyno ninka Ilaah. Bal maxaynu haysannaa?
8 “Look, I've got a quarter shekel of silver with me. I'll give it to the man of God so he can tell us the way we should take,” the servant told Saul.
Markaasaa midiidinkii mar kale u jawaabay Saa'uul, oo ku yidhi, Bal eeg, gacanta waxaan ku hayaa rubuc sheqel lacag ah, haddaba kaasaan ninka Ilaah siinayaa inuu jidkeenna inoo sheego aawadeed.
9 (In the old days in Israel, someone who went to inquire of God would say, “Come on, let's go to the seer,” because prophets used to be known as seers.)
(Waagii hore reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda markii nin Ilaah wax weyddiisanayo, sidan buu odhan jiray, Ina keena aan wax arkaha u tagnee, waayo, haatan kan la yidhaahdo, Nebi, waagii hore waxaa la odhan jiray, Wax arke.)
10 “That's good,” Saul told his servant. “So let's go.” They went to the town where the man of God was.
Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Wax wanaagsan baad tidhi, haddaba ina keen aan tagnee. Sidaas daraaddeed waxay galeen magaaladii ninka Ilaah joogay.
11 As they were going up the hill to the town, they met some young women coming out to draw water and asked them, “Is the seer here?”
Oo markay soo fuulayeen jiirtii magaalada waxay la kulmeen gabdho aroor u soo baxaya, kolkaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Wax arkihii halkan ma joogaa?
12 “He is,” they replied, “up ahead of you. But you'll have to hurry. He's come to town today because the people are having a sacrifice at the high place.
Oo markaasay ugu jawaabeen, Wuu joogaa, oo wuu idinka horreeyaa, haddaba dhaqsada, waayo, isagu maantuu magaalada yimid, maxaa yeelay, dadku maantay allabari ku bixinayaan meesha sare.
13 When you enter the town you can find him before he goes up to eat at the high place. The people won't eat before he comes, because he has to bless the sacrifice. After that, those who've been invited will eat. If you leave now you'll catch him.”
Oo markaad magaalada gashaan, isla markaasba waad helaysaan isaga intuusan meesha sare tegin inuu wax ku cuno, waayo, dadku wax cuni maayaan ilaa uu yimaado, maxaa yeelay, isagaa allabariga ku duceeya; dabadeedna kuwii loo yeedhay way cunaan. Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed kaca, waayo, hadda waad helaysaan isagii.
14 So they carried on their way up to the town. As they arrived there was Samuel going in the opposite direction. They met him on his way up to the high place.
Markaasay magaaladii u kaceen, oo markay magaaladii soo galeen, bal eeg, waxaa iyagii ka soo hor baxay Samuu'eel oo u socda meeshii sare.
15 The day before Saul arrived, the Lord had told Samuel,
Haddaba Rabbigu wax buu Samuu'eel u muujiyey maalin ka horraysay intaan Saa'uul iman, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
16 “Around this time tomorrow I'm going to send you a man from the land of Benjamin. Anoint him as ruler over my people Israel, and he will rescue them from the Philistines. I have seen what's happening to my people and I have heard their cry for help.”
Berri haddaa oo kale waxaan kuu soo dirayaa nin ka yimid dalka reer Benyaamiin, haddaba waa inaad isaga subagtaa inuu amiir u ahaado dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil, oo isna wuxuu dadkayga ka badbaadin doonaa gacanta reer Falastiin, waayo, anigu waxaan soo dhugtay dadkayga, maxaa yeelay, oohintoodii baa i soo gaadhay.
17 When Samuel saw Saul, the Lord said to him, “This is the man I told you about. He is the one who is going to rule my people.”
Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu arkay Saa'uul, Rabbiguna wuxuu isaga ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waa kaas ninkii aan kuu sheegay! Kan qudhiisa ayaa dadkayga u talin doona.
18 Saul went up to Samuel in the gateway and asked him, “Could you please tell me where the house of the seer is?”
Markaasaa Saa'uul u soo dhowaaday Samuu'eel oo iridda jooga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ii sheeg wax arkaha gurigiisu meeshuu yahay.
19 “I am the seer,” Samuel told Saul. “Go up ahead of me and we will eat together. Then in the morning I will answer all your questions and then send you on your way.
Oo Samuu'eelna wuu u jawaabay Saa'uul oo ku yidhi, Wax arkuhu waa aniga, meesha sare hortay taga, waayo, idinku maanta anigaad wax ila cunaysaan, oo subaxdiina waan ku dirayaa, oo kulli waxa qalbigaaga ku jira oo dhanna waan kuu sheegi doonaa.
20 About the donkeys you lost three days ago—don't worry about them because they've been found. But now—doesn't the hope of all of Israel rest on you and your family line?”
Oo dameerahaaga saddex maalmood hortood kaa lumayna ha ka fikirin innaba, waayo, waa la helay. Bal yaa reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda laga wada jeclaadaa? Sow ma aha adiga iyo reerka aabbahaa oo dhanba?
21 “But I'm from the tribe of Benjamin, the smallest tribe in Israel, and my family is the least significant of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin!” Saul replied. “Why are you telling me this?”
Markaasaa Saa'uul u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, War sow anigu ma ahi reer Benyaamiin oo u wada yar qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil? Oo weliba jilibkaygu sow ugama sii yara qabiilka reer Benyaamiin jilibyadiisa? Haddaba maxaad sidan iigula hadlaysaa?
22 Then Samuel brought Saul and his servant into the hall, and sat them at the head of the thirty people who'd been invited.
Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu kexeeyey Saa'uul iyo midiidinkiisii, oo wuxuu keenay qolkii martida, wuxuuna fadhiisiyey kuwii loo yeedhay dhexdooda meeshii ugu wacnayd, oo kuwii loo yeedhayna waxay ahaayeen in soddon qof ku dhow.
23 Samuel told the cook, “Bring the special piece of meat I gave you and told you to keep to one side.”
Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu cuntokariyihii ku yidhi, Qaybtii aan kuu dhiibay ee aan kugu idhi, Adigu ii hay, bal la kaalay.
24 So the cook took the upper thigh of meat and what was with it and placed it before Saul. Then Samuel said, “See, this is what was kept to one side. It was reserved for you. Eat it, for it was kept for you for this particular time, right from when I said, ‘I have invited the people.’” So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
Markaasaa cuntokariyihii wuxuu soo qaaday garabkii iyo wixii ku yiilba, oo wuxuu hor dhigay Saa'uul. Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu yidhi, Bal eeg wixii laguu kaydiyey, haddaba hortaada dhigo oo cun, waayo, waa laguu hayay ilaa wakhtigii la qawimay, oo anigu waxaan idhi, Dadka waan marti qaaday. Markaasuu Saa'uul maalintaas wax la cunay Samuu'eel.
25 Once they had returned from the high place to the town, Samuel spoke with Saul on the roof of his house.
Oo markay ka soo degeen meeshii sare, oo ay magaaladii soo galeen, wuxuu Saa'uul kula sheekaystay guri dushiis.
26 At dawn the next day Samuel called out to Saul on the roof, “Get up! I need to send you on your way!” So Saul got up, and he went outside with Samuel.
Oo waxay kaceen aroor hore, oo markii waagu soo kaahay, Samuu'eel ayaa Saa'uul gurigii dushiisa uga yeedhay, oo ku yidhi, Kac aan ku diree. Markaasaa Saa'uul kacay, oo isaga iyo Samuu'eelba dibadday u baxeen.
27 As they approached the edge of town, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell your servant to go on ahead of us. Once he's gone stay here for a while, because I have a message from God to give you.” So the servant went on ahead.
Oo markay ka sii dhaadhacayeen magaalada darafkeeda, Samuu'eel ayaa Saa'uul ku yidhi, Midiidinka u sheeg inuu inaga sii hor maro, (markaasuu isna ka hor maray, ) laakiinse adigu istaag haatan, aan erayga Ilaah ku maqashiiyee.
