1 Samuel 25
1 And Samuel died; and all the Israelites were gathered together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
Saamuʼeel ni duʼe; sabni Israaʼel hundi wal gaʼee isaaf booʼe; mana isaa kan Raamaa jirutti isa awwaalan. Kana irratti Daawit achii kaʼee gara Gammoojjii Phaaraanitti gad buʼe.
2 And [there was] a man in Maon, whose possessions [were] in Carmel; and the man [was] very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
Namni Maaʼoon kan Qarmeloos keessaa qabeenya qabu tokko akka malee sooressa ture. Innis reʼoota kuma tokkoo fi hoolota kuma sadii kanneen Qarmeloositti rifeensa irraa haadatu qaba ture.
3 Now the name of the man [was] Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and [she was] a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man [was] churlish and evil in his doings; and he [was] of the house of Caleb.
Maqaan isaa Naabaal, kan niitii isaa immoo Abiigayiilii dha. Isheen dubartii beektuu fi bareedduu turte; dhirsi ishee garuu addaggee fi hamaa ture; gosti isaas gosa Kaaleb.
4 And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal did shear his sheep.
Daawit akka Naabaal Gammoojjii keessatti hoolota isaa irraa rifeensa haaddachaa jiruu ni dhagaʼe.
5 And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:
Kanaafuu akkana jedhee dargaggoota kudhan erge; “Naabaal bira gara Qarmeloos dhaqaatii maqaa kootiin nagaa isa gaafadhaa.
6 And thus shall ye say to him that liveth [in prosperity], Peace [be] both to thee, and peace [be] to thine house, and peace [be] unto all that thou hast.
Akkanas jedhaanii: ‘Bara dheeraa jiraadhu! Nagaan siif haa taʼu; nagaan maatii keetiifis haa taʼu! Waan ati qabdu hundaafis haa taʼu!
7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.
“‘Ani amma akka yeroon kun yeroo itti hoolota irraa rifeensa haadan taʼe dhagaʼeera. Yeroo tiksoonni kee nu wajjin turanitti nu isaan hin miine; yeroo isaan Qarmeloos keessa turan guutuus wanni isaan qaban tokko iyyuu jalaa hin badne.
8 Ask thy young men, and they will shew thee. Wherefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes: for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thine hand unto thy servants, and to thy son David.
Hojjettoota kee gaafadhu; isaan sitti himuutii. Kanaafuu waan nu yeroo gaarii dhufneef dargaggoota kootiif arjoomi. Maaloo tajaajiltoota keetii fi ilma kee Daawitiif waanuma amma harkaa qabdu kenni.’”
9 And when David’s young men came, they spake to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
Namoonni Daawitis yeroo achi gaʼanitti maqaa Daawitiin dhaamsa kana Naabaalitti himanii deebii isaa eeggatan.
10 And Nabal answered David’s servants, and said, Who [is] David? and who [is] the son of Jesse? there be many servants now a days that break away every man from his master.
Naabaalis tajaajiltoota Daawitiif akkana jedhee deebise; “Daawit kun eenyu? Ilmi Isseey kun eenyu? Yeroo ammaa tajaajiltoonni hedduun gooftota isaanii jalaa badaa jiru.
11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give [it] unto men, whom I know not whence they [be]?
Egaa ani maaliifan buddeena koo, bishaan koo fi foon namoota hoolota koo irraa rifeensa haadaniif qale namoota eessaa akka dhufan hin beekamneef kenna?”
12 So David’s young men turned their way, and went again, and came and told him all those sayings.
Namoonni Daawitis of irra garagalanii deebiʼan. Yeroo deebiʼanittis waan hunda isatti himan.
13 And David said unto his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the stuff.
Daawitis namoota isaatiin, “Goraadee keessan hidhadhaa!” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan goraadee isaanii hidhatan; Daawitis goraadee isaa hidhate. Namoonni gara dhibba afur taʼan Daawit wajjin deeman; namoonni dhibbi lama immoo miʼa biratti hafan.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed on them.
Tajaajiltoota keessaa inni tokko akkana jedhee Abiigayiil niitii Naabaalitti hime: “Daawit akka isaan gooftaa keenyaaf nagaa dhiʼeessaniif gammoojjiidhaa ergamoota ergee ture; inni garuu akka malee isaan arrabse.
15 But the men [were] very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we were conversant with them, when we were in the fields:
Taʼus namoonni kunneen nuuf baayʼee gaarii turan. Isaan nu hin miine; yeroo isaan wajjin bosona turre hundas wanti tokko iyyuu nu jalaa hin badne.
16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
Yeroo nu hoolota keenya isaan bira tiksaa turre hunda isaan halkanii fi guyyaa dallaa nuu taʼanii turan.
17 Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he [is such] a son of Belial, that [a man] cannot speak to him.
Sababii gooftaa keenyaa fi guutummaa mana isaa balaan marseef ati amma waan gochuu dandeessu yaadi. Sababii inni nama hamaa akkanaa taʼeef namni tokko iyyuu isatti dubbachuu hin dandaʼu.”
18 Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched [corn], and an hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid [them] on asses.
Abiigayiil yeroo hin balleessine. Isheen buddeena dhibba lama, daadhii wayinii qalqalloo lama; hoolota qalmaaf qopheeffaman shan, akaayii safartuu shan, maxinoo ija wayinii dhibba tokkoo fi maxinoo ija harbuu dhibba lama fudhattee harreetti feʼatte.
19 And she said unto her servants, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she told not her husband Nabal.
Ergasii tajaajiltoota isheetiin, “Na dursaatii deemaa; ani isinan qaqqaba” jette. Garuu dhirsa ishee Naabaalitti hin himne.
20 And it was [so, as] she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert of the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them.
Utuma isheen harree yaabbattee tulluudhaan daʼattee gad buʼaa jirtuu Daawitii fi namoonni isaa isheetti dhufan; isheenis isaan simatte.
21 Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this [fellow] hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that [pertained] unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good.
Daawit akkana jedhee ture; “Ani akka wanni inni qabu tokko illee jalaa hin badneef gammoojjiitti qabeenya namicha kanaa eeguun koo gatii dhabeera. Inni waan gaarii ani isaaf godheef waan hamaa naaf deebiseera.
22 So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that [pertain] to him by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
Yoo ani bori ganama waan kan isaa taʼe keessaa dhiira tokko illee lubbuun hambise, Waaqni Daawitin haa adabu; adabbiin sunis akka malee haa cimu!”
23 And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground,
Abiigayiil yeroo Daawitin argitetti daftee harree ishee irraa buutee adda isheetiin fuula Daawit duratti lafatti gombifamtee sagadde.
24 And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, my lord, [upon] me [let this] iniquity [be: ] and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.
Isheenis miilla isaa irratti kuftee akkana jette: “Yaa gooftaa ko, balleessaan hundi ana qofa irra haa jiraatu. Maaloo akka garbittiin kee sitti dubbattu eeyyamiif; waan garbittiin kee dubbachuu barbaaddus dhagaʼi.
25 Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, [even] Nabal: for as his name [is], so [is] he; Nabal [is] his name, and folly [is] with him: but I thine handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
Gooftaan koo waaʼee namicha hamaa sanaa waaʼee Naabaal homaattuu hin hedin. Inni akkuma maqaa isaa ti; hiikkaan maqaa isaas gowwaa jechuu dha. Gowwummaanis isa wajjin jira. Ani garbittiin kee garuu namoota gooftaan koo erge sana hin argine.
26 Now therefore, my lord, [as] the LORD liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from coming to [shed] blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
Akka ati dhiiga hin dhangalaafnee fi akka harka keetiin haaloo hin baafne Waaqayyo si eegeera; dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa; duʼa kee ti; diinonni keetii fi warri gooftaa koo miidhuu barbaadan hundi akkuma Naabaal haa taʼan.
27 And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
Kennaan garbittiin kee gooftaa kootiif fidde kunis namoota si duukaa buʼaniif haa kennamu.
28 I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee [all] thy days.
“Waan gooftaan koo lola Waaqayyoo loluuf Waaqayyo gooftaa kootiif dhugumaan mootummaa bara baraa ni dhaabaatii. Maaloo balleessaa garbittii keetii dhiisiif. Bara jireenya keetii keessas yakki tokko iyyuu sirratti hin argamin.
29 Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, [as out] of the middle of a sling.
Eenyu iyyuu lubbuu kee balleessuuf jedhee si ariʼu illee, lubbuun gooftaa koo waldaa jiraattotaa keessatti Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiin ni eegamti. Inni garuu akkuma waan wiirtuu furrisa keessaa furrifamuutti lubbuu diina keetii furrisee ni darbata.
30 And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
Yeroo Waaqayyo akkuma gooftaa kootiif waadaa gale sanatti waan gaarii hunda godheefii Israaʼel irratti hoogganaa godhee isa muudutti,
31 That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
gooftaan koo sababii yakka malee dhiiga dhangalaasuutiin yookaan sababii haaloo baafachuutiin waan isa gaabbisiisu yookaan waan qalbii isaa tuqu tokko illee hin qabaatin. Yeroo Waaqayyo Waaqni kee gooftaa kootiif waan gaarii godhutti garbittii kee yaadadhu.”
32 And David said to Abigail, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:
Daawitis Abiigayiiliin akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel inni akka ati harʼa na argituuf natti si erge haa eebbifamu.
33 And blessed [be] thy advice, and blessed [be] thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to [shed] blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
Ati sababii harʼa gorsa gaarii naa kennitee dhiiga dhangalaasuu fi harkuma kootiin haaloo baafachuu irraa na deebifteef eebbifami.
34 For in very deed, [as] the LORD God of Israel liveth, which hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
Dhugaa Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel kan isin miidhuu na dhowwe jiraataa sanaa, utuu ati daftee na arguuf dhufuu baattee silaa ilmaan Naabaal keessaa dhiirri tokko iyyuu hamma lafti bariitutti hin hambifamu ture.”
35 So David received of her hand [that] which she had brought him, and said unto her, Go up in peace to thine house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.
Daawitis ergasii waan isheen isaaf fidde sana harka ishee irraa fuudhatee, “Nagaan gali. Ani waan ati jette dhagaʼeera; gaaffii kees fudhadheera” jedhe.
36 And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal’s heart [was] merry within him, for he [was] very drunken: wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
Yeroo Abiigayiil gara Naabaal dhaqxetti, inni mana isaatti cidha akkuma cidha mootii tokkoo qopheessee ture. Innis gammachuudhaan guutamee akka malee machaaʼee ture. Kanaafuu isheen hamma lafti bariitutti waan tokko illee isatti hin himne.
37 But it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, and his wife had told him these things, that his heart died within him, and he became [as] a stone.
Ganama sanas yeroo machiin Naabaal irraa galetti niitiin isaa waan kana hunda itti himte; onneen isaas ni dhaabatte; innis akkuma dhagaa taʼe.
38 And it came to pass about ten days [after], that the LORD smote Nabal, that he died.
Bultii kudhan booddee Waaqayyo Naabaalin dhaʼe; innis ni duʼe.
39 And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed [be] the LORD, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil: for the LORD hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.
Daawitis yeroo akka Naabaal duʼe dhagaʼetti, “Waaqayyo isa arrabsoo Naabaal haaloo naaf baaseef galanni haa gaʼu. Inni garbicha isaa yakka hojjechuu dhowwee yakka Naabaal matuma isaatti deebiseeraatii” jedhe. Daawitis akka isheen niitii isaaf taatu gaafachuuf Abiigayiilitti ergaa erge.
40 And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake unto her, saying, David sent us unto thee, to take thee to him to wife.
Tajaajiltoonni isaas Qarmeloos dhaqanii Abiigayiiliin, “Daawit akka ati isaaf niitii taatuuf akka nu isatti si geessinuuf sitti nu erge” jedhan.
41 And she arose, and bowed herself on [her] face to the earth, and said, Behold, [let] thine handmaid [be] a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
Isheenis adda isheetiin lafatti gombifamtee, “Garbittiin kee kunoo ti; ani si tajaajiluu fi miilla tajaajiltoota gooftaa koo dhiquuf qophaaʼeera” jette.
42 And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that went after her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Abiigayiilis daftee harree yaabbattee tajaajiltoota ishee dubara shan qabattee ergamoota Daawit wajjin deebitee dhaqxee Daawitiif niitii taate.
43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they were also both of them his wives.
Akkasumas Daawit biyya Yizriʼeel keessaa Ahiinooʼamin fuudhe; lamaan isaanii iyyuu niitota taʼaniif.
44 But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, which [was] of Gallim.
Saaʼol garuu Miikaal intala isaa kan niitii Daawit turte sana Phaltiiʼeel ilma Laayish kan lammii Galiim ture sanatti heerumsiise.
