1 Samuel 17
1 And the Philistines gather their camps to battle, and are gathered to Shochoh, which [is] to Judah, and encamp between Shochoh and Azekah, in Ephes-Dammim;
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 have been gathered, and encamp by the Valley of Elah, and set in array [for] battle to meet the Philistines.
Saaʼolii fi namoonni Israaʼel immoo wal gaʼanii Sulula Elaa keessa qubatan; Filisxeemota waraanuufis hiriiran.
3 And the Philistines are standing on the mountain on this [side], and Israel is standing on the mountain on that [side], and the valley [is] between them.
Filisxeemonni gaara tokko qabatan; Israaʼeloonni immoo tulluu kaan qabatan; gidduu isaanii immoo sululatu ture.
4 And a man goes out, the champion from the camps of the Philistines, his name [is] Goliath, from Gath; his height [is] six cubits and a span [[or 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 a helmet of bronze [is] on his head, and he is clothed [with] a scaled coat of mail, and the weight of the coat of mail [is] five thousand shekels of bronze,
Innis gonfoo naasii mataatti kaaʼatee qomee naasii kan saqilii kuma shan ulfaatu uffata ture;
6 and a frontlet of bronze [is] on his feet, and a javelin of bronze between his shoulders,
miilla isaattis gambaallee naasii hidhatee gatiittii isaatti eeboo baadhata ture.
7 and the wood of his spear [is] like a weavers’ beam, and the flame of his spear [is] six hundred shekels of iron, and the bearer of the buckler is going 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 stands and calls to the ranks of Israel, and says to them, “Why do you come out to set in array for battle? [Am] I not the Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, 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 if he is able to fight with me, and has struck me, then we have been for servants to you; and if I prevail against him, and have struck him, then you have been for servants to us, and have served 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 says, “I have reproached the ranks of Israel this day; give a man to me and we fight together!”
Filisxeemichis, “Ani harʼa Israaʼeliin nan morkadha! Akka wal lolluuf nama tokko naa kennaa” jedhe.
11 And Saul hears—and all Israel—these words of the Philistine, and they are broken down and greatly afraid.
Saaʼolii fi Israaʼeloonni hundi yommuu dubbii kana dhagaʼanitti akka malee raafaman; ni sodaatanis.
12 And David [is] son of this Ephraimite of Beth-Lehem-Judah, whose name [is] Jesse, and he has eight sons, and the man has become aged among 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 eldest sons of Jesse go, they have gone after Saul to battle; and the name of his three sons who have gone into battle [are] Eliab the firstborn, and his second Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
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 is the youngest, and the three eldest have gone after Saul,
Daawit quxisuu hunda isaanii ture. Isaan hangafoonni sadan Saaʼolin duukaa buʼanii deeman;
15 and David is going and returning from Saul, to feed the flock of his father at Beth-Lehem.
Daawit garuu hoolota abbaa isaa tiksuuf jedhee Saaʼol biraa Beetlihemitti deddeebiʼaa ture.
16 And the Philistine draws near, morning and evening, and stations himself [for] forty days.
Namichi Filisxeem sunis guyyaa afurtama ganama ganamaa fi galgala galgala dhufee isaanitti of mulʼisa ture.
17 And Jesse says to his son David, “Now take an ephah of this roasted [grain] and these ten loaves for your brothers, and run to the camp 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 take these ten cuttings of the cheese to the head of the one thousand, and inspect your brothers for welfare, and receive their pledge.”
Baaduu kurnan kana immoo ajajaa kumaa isaaniitiif geessi. Haala obboloonni kee keessa jiran ilaaliitii oduu isaanii fidii kottu.
19 And Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, [are] in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
Isaan Saaʼolii fi namoota Israaʼel wajjin Sulula Elaa keessatti Filisxeemota lolaa jiru.”
20 And David rises early in the morning, and leaves the flock to a keeper, and lifts up, and goes, as Jesse commanded him, and he comes to the path, and to the force which is going out to the rank, and they have shouted for 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 set in array rank to meet rank.
Israaʼelii fi Filisxeemonni tarree tarreedhaan fuula walitti garagalfatan.
22 And David lets down the goods from off him on the hand of a keeper of the goods, and runs into the rank, and comes and asks of his brothers of [their] welfare.
Daawitis miʼa isaa eegduu miʼaa biratti dhiisee gara adda waraanaatti fiigee obboloota isaa nagaa gaafate.
23 And he is speaking with them, and behold, a man, the champion, is coming up, his name [is] Goliath the Philistine, from Gath, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and he speaks according to those words, and David hears;
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 see the man, flee from his presence, and are greatly afraid.
Israaʼeloonni hundinuu yommuu namicha arganitti sodaa guddaadhaan isa biraa baqatan.
25 And the men of Israel say, “Have you seen this man who is coming up? For he is coming up to reproach Israel, and it has been—the man who strikes him, the king enriches him with great riches, and he gives his daughter to him, and makes 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 speaks to the men who are standing by him, saying, “What is done to the man who strikes this Philistine, and has turned aside reproach from Israel? For who [is] this uncircumcised Philistine that he has reproached the ranks 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 speak to him according to this word, saying, “Thus it is done to the man who strikes him.”
Namoonnis, “Wanni nama isa ajjeesuuf godhamu kanuma” jedhanii dubbiidhuma duraan dubbachaa turan sana irra deebiʼanii itti himan.
28 And Eliab, his eldest brother, hears when he speaks to the men, and the anger of Eliab burns against David, and he says, “Why [is] this—[that] you have come down? And to whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I have known your pride, and the evil of your heart—for you have 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 says, “What have I done now? Is it not a word?”
Daawit immoo, “Ani amma maalin godhe? Ani dubbachuu illee hin dandaʼuu?” jedhe.
30 And he turns around from him to another, and says according to this word, and the people return him word as the first word.
Ergasiis gara nama biraatti garagalee waanuma duraa sana gaafate; namoonnis akkuma jalqabaatti deebisaniif.
31 And the words which David has spoken are heard, and they declare [them] before Saul, and he receives him;
Wanni Daawit jechaa tures dhagaʼamee Saaʼol qaqqabe; Saaʼolis isa waamsise.
32 and David says to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fall because of him, your servant goes, and has fought 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 says to David, “You are not able to go to this Philistine, to fight with him, for you [are] a youth, and he [has been] 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 says to Saul, “Your servant has been a shepherd among the sheep for his father, and the lion has come—and the bear—and has taken away a sheep out of the drove,
Daawit garuu Saaʼoliin akkana jedhe; “Garbichi kee hoolota abbaa isaa tiksaa ture. Yeroo leenci yookaan amaakenni dhufee bushaayee keessaa tokko fudhatutti,
35 and I have gone out after him, and struck him, and delivered [it] out of his mouth, and he rises against me, and I have taken hold on his beard, and struck him, and put him to death.
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 has struck both the lion and the bear, and this uncircumcised Philistine has been as one of them, for he has reproached the ranks 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 And David says, “YHWH, who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, He delivers me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul says to David, “Go, and YHWH is 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 clothes David with his long robe, and has put a helmet of bronze on his head, and clothes him with a coat of mail.
Ergasiis Saaʼol uffata lolaa kan ofii isaa Daawititti uffise. Qomee sibiilaa itti uffisee gonfoo naasii mataa isaatti kaaʼeef.
39 And David girded his sword above his long robe, and begins to go, for he has not tried [it]; and David says to Saul, “I am not able to go with these, for I had not tried”; and David turns them aside from off 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 takes his staff in his hand, and chooses five smooth stones for himself from the brook, and puts them in the shepherds’ vessel that he has, even in the leather pouch, and his sling [is] in his hand, and he draws near to 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 goes on, going and drawing near to David, and the man carrying the buckler [is] before him,
Namichi Filisxeem sunis namicha miʼa lolaa isaaf baatu of dura qajeelchee Daawititti dhiʼaate.
42 and the Philistine looks attentively, and sees David, and despises him, for he was a youth, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance.
Innis Daawitin ilaalee akka inni mucaa diimaa miidhagaa taʼe hubatee isa tuffate.
43 And the Philistine says to David, “Am I a dog that you are coming to me with sticks?” And the Philistine reviles David by his gods,
Filisxeemichis, “Kan ati ulee qabattee natti dhuftu ani sareedhaa?” jedhee waaqota ofii isaatiin Daawitin abaare.
44 and the Philistine says to David, “Come to me, and I give your flesh to the bird of the heavens, and to the beast of the field.”
Akkasumas, “As kottu; ani foon kee allaattii samiitii fi bineensota bosonaatiif nan kennaa!” jedheen.
45 And David says to the Philistine, “You are coming to me with sword, and with spear, and with buckler, and I am coming to you in the Name of YHWH of Hosts, God of the ranks of Israel, which you have reproached!
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 YHWH shuts you up into my hand—and I have struck you, and turned aside your head from off you, and given the carcass of the camp of the Philistines this day to the bird of the heavens, and to the beast of the earth, and all the earth knows that God is for 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 knows that YHWH does not save by sword and by spear, for the battle [is] YHWH’s, and He has given you into our hand.”
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 it has come to pass, that the Philistine has risen, and goes, and draws near to meet David, and David hurries and runs to the rank to meet the Philistine,
Yommuu Filisxeemichi isa dhaʼuuf dhufettis Daawit isa loluuf fiigee adda waraanaa seene.
49 and David puts forth his hand into the vessel, and takes a stone from there, and slings, and strikes the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone sinks into his forehead, and he falls on his face to the earth.
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 And David is stronger than the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and strikes the Philistine, and puts him to death, and there is 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 runs and stands over the Philistine, and takes his sword, and draws it out of its sheath, and puts him to death, and cuts off his head with it; and the Philistines see that their hero [is] dead, and flee.
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 rise—also Judah—and shout, and pursue the Philistines until you enter the valley, and to the gates of Ekron, and the wounded of the Philistines fall in the way of Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron,
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 sons of Israel return from burning after the Philistines, and spoil their camps.
Israaʼeloonni yommuu Filisxeemota ariʼuu irraa deebiʼanitti qubata isaanii saaman.
54 And David takes the head of the Philistine, and brings it to Jerusalem, and he has put his weapons in his own tent.
Daawitis mataa Filisxeemichaa fudhatee gara Yerusaalemitti fide; miʼa lolaa Filisxeemichaas dunkaana ofii isaatti galfate.
55 And when Saul sees David going out to meet the Philistine, he has said to Abner, head of the host, “Whose son [is] this—the youth, Abner?” And Abner says, “Your soul lives, O king, I have not known.”
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 says, “Ask whose son this [is]—the young man.”
Mootichis, “Egaa akka gurbaan kun ilma eenyuu taʼe iyyaafadhuuttii bira gaʼi” jedheen.
57 And when David turns back from striking the Philistine, then Abner takes him and brings him in before Saul, and the head of the Philistine [is] in his hand;
Akkuma Daawit Filisxeemicha ajjeesee deebiʼeen, Abneer Daawitii mataa Filisxeemichaa harkatti qabatee jiru fuula Saaʼol duratti dhiʼeesse.
58 and Saul says to him, “Whose son [are] you, O youth?” And David says, “Son of your servant Jesse, the Beth-Lehemite.”
Saaʼolis, “Gurbayyoo ati ilma eenyuu ti?” jedhee gaafate. Daawit immoo, “Ani ilma garbicha keetii ilma Isseeyi namicha Beetlihem sanaa ti” jedhee deebise.
