1 Seenaa 11
1 Israaʼeloonni hundinuu Kebroonitti Daawit biratti walitti dhufanii akkana jedhan; “Nu foonii fi dhiiga kee ti.
Then all of Israel was gathered to David at Hebron, saying: “We are your bone and your flesh.
2 Duraan, yeroo Saaʼol mootii turetti iyyuu namni duula loltoota Israaʼel hoogganu siʼi ture. Waaqayyoo Waaqni kees, ‘Situ saba koo Israaʼelin tiksa; bulchaa isaaniis ni taata’ siin jedhee ture.”
Also, yesterday and the day before, when Saul still reigned, you were the one who led out and brought in Israel. For the Lord your God said to you: ‘You shall pasture my people Israel, and you shall be the leader over them.’”
3 Yommuu maanguddoonni Israaʼel hundi Kebroonitti Daawit Mooticha bira dhufanitti, inni Kebroonitti fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan wajjin kakuu gale. Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo karaa Saamuʼeeliin abdachiise sanatti dibanii Israaʼel irratti mootii isa godhan.
Therefore, all those greater by birth of Israel went to the king at Hebron. And David formed a pact with them before the Lord. And they anointed him king over Israel, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Samuel.
4 Daawitii fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu gara Yerusaalemitti jechuunis Yebuusiitti ni qajeelan. Yebuusonni achi jiraatan garuu
Then David and all of Israel went to Jerusalem. The same is Jebus, where the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were.
5 Daawitiin, “Ati as hin seentu” jedhan. Taʼus Daawit daʼannoo Xiyoon jechuunis Magaalaa Daawit ni qabate.
And those who were living in Jebus said to David: “You shall not enter here.” But David seized the stronghold of Zion, which is the city of David.
6 Daawitis, “Namni duraan dursee dhaqee Yebuusota lolu ajajaa loltootaa taʼa” jedhee ture. Yooʼaab ilmi Zeruuyaa jalqabatti baʼe; kanaafuu inni ajajaa waraanaa taʼe.
And he said, “Whoever shall strike the Jebusites first, shall be ruler and commander.” And so Joab, the son of Zeruiah, ascended first, and he was made the leader.
7 Daawitis iddoo jireenya isaa daʼannoo sana keessa godhate; kanaafuu daʼannoon sun Magaalaa Daawit jedhamee waamame.
Then David lived in the stronghold, and for this reason it was called the City of David.
8 Innis Miiloodhaa jalqabee naannoo isheetti dallaa dhagaa ni ijaare; Yooʼaab immoo kutaa Magaalaa sanaa kan hafe deebisee ijaare.
And he built up the city all around, from Millo even to every side. But Joab built the rest of the city.
9 Daawitis sababii Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isa wajjin tureef yeruma yeroon jabaachaa dhufe.
And David continued advancing and increasing, and the Lord of hosts was with him.
10 Namoota Daawit warra jajjaboo keessaa hangafoonni kanneenii dha; isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo waaʼee Israaʼel dubbate sanatti mootii isa gochuuf jedhanii saba Israaʼel hunda wajjin mootummaa isaa keessatti gargaarsa guddaa godhaniif.
These are the leaders of the strong men of David, who assisted him, so that he would become king over all of Israel, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Israel.
11 Maqaan namoota Daawit warra jajjaboo kanaa dha: Yaashobiʼaam namichi gosa Hakmooni hangafa ajajjoota sanaa ture; innis lola tokko irratti eeboo mirmirsee namoota dhibba sadii fixe.
And this is the number of the robust of David: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, leader among the thirty. He lifted up his spear over three hundred, who were wounded at one time.
12 Kan isatti aanu immoo Eleʼaazaar namicha gosa Ahooʼaa, ilma Doodoo ture; innis namoota jajjaboo sadan sana keessaa tokko ture.
And after him, there was Eleazar, the son of his uncle, an Ahohite, who was among the three powerful ones.
13 Eleʼaazaar yeroo Filisxeemonni waraanaaf walitti qabamanii turanitti Daawit wajjin Phaas Damiim ture. Loltoonnis lafa qotiisaa kan garbuudhaan guutame tokko biratti Filisxeemota duraa baqatan.
He was with David in Pasdammim, when the Philistines were gathered to that place for battle. Now the field of that region was full of barley, but the people had fled from the face of the Philistines.
14 Innii fi Daawit garuu lafa qotiisaa walakkaatti iddoo qabatan. Isaanis irraa ittisuudhaan Filisxeemota fixan; Waaqayyos moʼannaa guddaa isaaniif kenne.
These men stood in the midst of the field, and they defended it. And when they had struck down the Philistines, the Lord gave a great salvation to his people.
15 Utuma gareen Filisxeemotaa Sulula Refaayim keessa qubatee jiruu hangafoota soddomman sana keessaa namoonni sadii gara kattaa holqa Adulaamitti gara Daawit gad buʼan.
Then three from the thirty leaders descended to the rock where David was, to the cave of Adullam, when the Philistines had made camp in the Valley of the Rephaim.
16 Yeroo sanatti Daawit daʼannoo cimaa keessa ture; loltoonni Filisxeem immoo Beetlihem turan.
Now David was in a stronghold, and a garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem.
17 Daawitis dheebotee, “Utuu namni tokko boolla bishaanii kan karra Beetlihem bira jiru keessaa bishaan dhugaatii naa fidee hoo!” jedhe.
And then David desired and said, “O if only someone would give me water from the well of Bethlehem, which is at the gate!”
18 Kanaafuu namoonni Sadan sun qubata Filisxeemotaa keessaan darbanii boolla bishaanii kan karra Beetlihem bira jiru keessaa bishaan waraabanii Daawitiif fidan. Inni garuu dhuguu ni dide; qooda kanaa bishaan sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhangalaase.
Therefore, these three broke through to the midst of the camp of the Philistines, and they drew water from the well of Bethlehem, which was at the gate. And they took it to David, so that he might drink. But he was not willing; and instead, he offered it as a libation to the Lord,
19 Innis, “Akka ani waan kana hin goone Waaqni narraa haa fageessu! Ani dhiiga namoota lubbuu ofii isaaniitti muranii dhaqan kanaa nan dhugaa?” jedhe. Sababii isaan lubbuu ofii isaaniitti muranii dhaqanii fidaniif Daawit bishaan sana hin dhugne. Egaa wanni namoonni jajjaboon sadan sun hojjetan kana ture.
saying: “Far be it from me, that I would do this in the sight of my God, and that I would drink the blood of these men. For at the peril of their own lives, they brought the water to me.” And for this reason, he was not willing to drink. The three most powerful accomplished these things.
20 Abiishaayi obboleessi Yooʼaab hoogganaa Sadan isaanii ture. Innis namoota dhibba sadiitti eeboo isaa ol kaafatee isaan fixe; akkasiin innis akkuma namoota Sadan sanaa beekamaa taʼe.
Also, Abishai, the brother of Joab, was the leader of the three, and he lifted up his spear against three hundred, who were wounded. And he was most renowned among the three,
21 Inni yoo isaan keessaa tokko taʼuu baate iyyuu warra Sadan caalaa ulfina argatee ajajaa isaanii taʼe.
and he was famous among the second three and their leader. Yet truly, he did not reach as far as the first three.
22 Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa loltuun cimaan biyya Qabziʼeel sunis loltuu moʼannaa gurguddaa argamsiise ture. Innis loltoota Moʼaab kanneen akka malee jajjaboo taʼan lama ajjeese. Gaafa cabbiin roobe tokkos boolla keessa seenee leenca ajjeese.
Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, from Kabzeel, was a very mature man, who had accomplished many deeds. He struck down the two lions of God from Moab. And he descended and killed a lion in the middle of a pit, in the time of snow.
23 Namicha biyya Gibxi kan dhundhuma shan dheeratu tokko illee ni ajjeese. Namichi Gibxi sun eeboo akka danqaraa wayya dhooftuu harkaa qabaatu iyyuu Benaayaa bokkuudhaan isatti baʼe. Innis harka namicha Gibxi sanaatii eeboo butatee eeboodhuma isaatiin isa ajjeese.
And he struck down an Egyptian man, whose stature was five cubits, and who had a spear like a weaver’s beam. And yet he descended to him with a staff. And he seized the spear that he was holding in his hand. And he killed him with his own spear.
24 Hojiiwwan gootummaa kanneen Benaayaa ilmi Yehooyaadaa hojjete kana faʼi; innis akkuma namoota jajjaboo sadan sanaa nama beekamaa ture.
These things were done by Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who was most renowned among the three robust ones,
25 Inni namoota Soddomman sana keessaa nama kam iyyuu caalaa ulfina guddaa argate; garuu namoota Sadan sanatti hin dabalamne. Daawitis ajajaa eegdota ofii isaa isa godhate.
the first among the thirty. Yet truly, he did not reach as far as the three. Then David placed him beside his ear.
