1 Saamuʼeel 19
1 Saaʼol ilma isaa Yoonaataanii fi tajaajiltoota hunda akka isaan Daawitin ajjeesan ajaje. Yoonaataan garuu akka malee Daawitin jaallata ture;
And Saul gave orders to his son Jonathan and to all his servants to put David to death. But Saul's son Jonathan had great delight in David.
2 akkana jedhees isa akeekkachiise; “Saaʼol abbaan koo karaa ittiin si ajjeesu barbaadachaa jira. Bori ganama of eeggadhu; dhokadhuutii achuma turi.
And Jonathan said to David, Saul, my father, is purposing your death: so now, take care in the morning, and keep yourself safe in a secret place:
3 Anis gad baʼee abbaa koo wajjin dirree ati jirtu irra nan dhaabadha. Waaʼee kees isa wajjin haasaʼee waan inni jedhe sitti hima.”
And I will go out and take my place by my father's side in the field near where you are; and I will get into talk with my father about you, and when I see how things are, I will give you word.
4 Yoonaataanis akkana jedhee abbaa isaa Saaʼolitti waaʼee Daawit waan gaarii dubbate; “Mootichi tajaajilaa isaa Daawititti yakka hin hojjetin; inni homaa si hin goone; wanni inni hojjetes faayidaa guddaa siif argamsiiseera.
And Jonathan gave his father Saul a good account of David, and said to him, Let not the king do wrong against his servant, against David; because he has done you no wrong, and all his acts have had a good outcome for you:
5 Daawit lubbuu ofii isaatiif yaaduu dhiisee Filisxeemicha ajjeese. Waaqayyos Israaʼel hundaaf moʼannaa guddaa kenne; atis waan kana argitee gammaddeerta. Yoos ati maaliif sababii malee isa ajjeesuudhaan nama yakka hin qabne kan akka Daawititti yakka hojjetta ree?”
For he put his life in danger and overcame the Philistine, and the Lord gave all Israel salvation: you saw it and were glad: why then are you sinning against him who has done no wrong, desiring the death of David without cause?
6 Saaʼolis Yoonaataanin dhaggeeffatee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, Daawit hin ajjeefamu” jedhee kakate.
And Saul gave ear to the voice of Jonathan, and said with an oath, By the living Lord, he is not to be put to death.
7 Kanaafuu Yoonaataan Daawitin waamee waan kana hunda itti hime. Saaʼolittis isa fide; Daawitis akkuma duriitti Saaʼol dura dhaabate.
Then Jonathan sent for David and gave him word of all these things. And Jonathan took David to Saul, who kept him by his side as in the past.
8 Ammas lolli ni kaʼe; Daawitis dhaqee Filisxeemota lole. Innis humna guddaan isaan dhaʼe; isaanis isa duraa baqatan.
And there was war again: and David went out fighting the Philistines, causing great destruction among them; and they went in flight before him.
9 Garuu utuu Saaʼol eeboo harkatti qabatee mana isaa taaʼuu hafuuri hamaan Waaqayyo biraa isatti dhufe. Utuu Daawit baganaa taphachaa jiruu,
And an evil spirit from the Lord came on Saul, when he was seated in his house with his spear in his hand; and David made music for him.
10 Saaʼol eeboodhaan Daawitin keenyanitti hodhuu yaale; Daawit garuu duraa miliqe; Saaʼolis eeboo sana keenyanitti fixe. Daawitis halkan sana baqatee jalaa baʼe.
And Saul would have sent his spear through him, pinning him to the wall, but he got away and the spear went into the wall: and that night David went in flight and got away.
11 Saaʼol akka isaan eeganii ganamaan isa ajjeesaniif mana Daawititti namoota erge. Miikaal niitiin Daawit garuu, “Ati yoo halkan kana baqachuu baatte bori ni ajjeefamta” jettee akeekkachiifte.
Then in that night Saul sent men to David's house to keep watch on him so as to put him to death in the morning: and David's wife Michal said to him, If you do not go away to a safe place tonight you will be put to death in the morning.
12 Kanaafuu Miikaal foddaa keessaan Daawitin gad buufte; innis baqatee miliqe.
So Michal let David down through the window, and he went in flight and got away.
13 Ergasii Miikaal fakkii Waaqa tolfamaa tokko fuutee wayyaa itti uffiftee siree irra ciibsite; boraatii rifeensa reʼees mataa jala keesseef.
Then Michal took the image and put it in the bed, with a cushion of goat's hair at its head, and she put clothing over it.
14 Yeroo Saaʼol Daawitin qabsiisuuf namoota ergetti Miikaal, “Inni dhukkubsateera” jette.
And when Saul sent men to take David, she said, He is ill.
15 Saaʼol akka isaan Daawitin ilaalaniif deebisee namoota ergee, “Akka ani isa ajjeesuuf siree isaatiin naa fidaa” isaaniin jedhe.
And Saul sent his men to see David, saying, Do not come back without him, take him in his bed, so that I may put him to death.
16 Yeroo namoonni sun ol seenanitti fakkiin Waaqa tolfamaa sun siree irra ciibsamee, rifeensi reʼees mataa jala kaaʼameefii argame.
And when the men came in, there was the image in the bed, with the cushion of goat's hair at its head
17 Saaʼolis Miikaaliin, “Ati maaliif akka diinni koo miliquuf akkas na gowwoomsite?” jedhe. Miikaalis, “Isatu, ‘Jalaa na miliqsi; yoo kanaa achii ani sin ajjeesaa’ naan jedhe” jetteen.
And Saul said to Michal, why have you been false to me, letting my hater go and get safely away? And in answer Michal said to Saul, He said to me, Let me go, or I will put you to death.
18 Daawitis yeroo baqatee miliqetti Saamuʼeel bira Raamaa dhaqee waan Saaʼol isa godhe hunda itti hime. Ergasiis innii fi Saamuʼeel gara Naayot dhaqanii achuma turan.
So David went in flight and got away and came to Ramah, to Samuel, and gave him an account of all Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and were living in Naioth.
19 Saaʼolittis, “Kunoo Daawit Naayot ishee Raamaa keessatti argamtu keessa jira” jedhanii himan.
And word was given to Saul that David was at Naioth in Ramah.
20 Kanaafuu inni akka isa qabaniif namoota itti erge. Isaan garuu yeroo garee raajota raajii dubbatanii kan Saamuʼeel hoogganaa isaanii taʼee achi dhaabachaa ture tokko arganitti Hafuurri Waaqaa namoota Saaʼol irra buʼee isaanis akkasuma raajii dubbatan.
And Saul sent men to take David; and when they saw the band of prophets at work, with Samuel in his place at their head, the spirit of God came on Saul's men, and they became like prophets.
21 Saaʼol yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti namoota biraa erge; isaanis akkasuma raajii dubbatan. Saaʼol ammas yeroo sadaffaaf namoota erge; isaanis akkasuma raajii dubbatan.
And Saul, having news of this, sent other men, who in the same way became like prophets. And a third time Saul sent men, and they like the others became like prophets.
22 Dhuma irratti inni ofuma isaatii kaʼee Raamaa dhaqe; boolla bishaanii guddaa Seekuutti argamu bira gaʼee, “Saamuʼeelii fi Daawit eessa jiru?” jedhee gaafate. Namni tokkos, “Isaan Naayot ishee Raamaa keessa jirtu keessa jiru” jedheen.
Then he himself went to Ramah, and came to the great water-spring in Secu; and questioning the people he said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, They are at Naioth in Ramah.
23 Kanaafuu Saaʼol gara Naayot ishee Raamaa keessa jirtu sanaa dhaqe. Garuu Hafuurri Waaqaa isaa irra buʼe; innis hamma Nawaat gaʼutti raajii dubbachaa deeme.
And he went on from there to Naioth in Ramah: and the spirit of God came on him, and he went on, acting like a prophet, till he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 Wayyaa isaas of irraa baasee fuula Saamuʼeel duratti raajii dubbate. Innis halkanii fi guyyaa sana guutuu qullaa isaa ciise. Sababiin namoonni, “Saaʼolis raajota keessaa tokkoodhaa?” jedhaniif kanuma.
And he took off his clothing, acting like a prophet before Samuel, and falling down he was stretched out, without his clothing, all that day and all that night. This is the reason for the saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?
