Taariikhdii Kowaad 10
1 Haddaba reer Falastiin waxay la dirireen reer binu Israa'iil, oo raggii reer binu Israa'iilna way ka carareen reer Falastiin, oo Buur Gilboca ayay ku daateen iyagoo la laayay.
The army of Philistia [again] fought against the Israelis. The Israeli soldiers ran away from them, and many Israelis were killed {the soldiers of Philistia killed many Israelis} on Gilboa Mountain.
2 Oo reer Falastiin aad bay u eryadeen Saa'uul iyo wiilashiisii, markaasaa reer Falastiin waxay dileen Yoonaataan, iyo Abiinaadaab, iyo Malkiishuuca oo ahaa Saa'uul wiilashiisii.
The soldiers of Philistia caught up with Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
3 Oo dagaalkiina aad buu ugu sii kululaaday Saa'uul, oo waxaa isagii gaadhay qaansoleydii, oo isna qaansoleydii aawadeed ayuu dhib badan ula kulmay.
The fighting was very fierce around Saul, and the (archers/men who shot arrows) shot Saul and wounded him severely.
4 Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu kii hubka u siday ku yidhi, War seeftaada la soo bax oo iga mudhbixi, waaba intaasoo buuryoqabyadanu yimaadaan oo ay i caayaane. Laakiinse kii hubka u siday wuu diiday, waayo, aad buu u cabsaday. Sidaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wuxuu qaatay seeftiisii, markaasuu ku dul dhacay.
Saul said to the man who was carrying his weapons, “Take out your sword and kill me with it, in order that these heathen Philistines will not be able to injure me [further] and make fun of me [while I am dying].” But the man who was carrying Saul’s weapons was terrified and refused to do that. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it [and died].
5 Oo kii hubka u sidayna markuu arkay in Saa'uul dhintay isna wuxuu ku dul dhacay seeftiisii, wuuna dhintay.
When the man carrying his weapons saw that Saul was dead, he also threw himself on his own sword and died.
6 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa wada dhintay Saa'uul iyo saddexdiisii wiil, oo reerkiisii oo dhammu way wada dhinteen.
So Saul and three of his sons all died, and none of his descendants ever became king.
7 Oo raggii reer binu Israa'iil oo dooxada joogay oo dhammu markay arkeen inay iyagu carareen, oo Saa'uul iyo wiilashiisii ay dhinteen ayay magaalooyinkoodii ka tageen, oo carareen, markaasaa reer Falastiin yimaadeen oo iska degeen.
When the Israelis who were living in the valley saw that their army had run away and that Saul and his three sons were dead, they left their towns and ran away. Then the soldiers from Philistia came and (occupied/lived in) those towns.
8 Oo maalintii dambe markay reer Falastiin u yimaadeen inay dharka ka furtaan kuwii la dilay waxay heleen Saa'uul iyo wiilashiisii oo Buur Gilboca ku dhintay.
The next day, when the Philistines came to take away the weapons of the dead [Israeli soldiers], they found the corpses of Saul and his three sons on Gilboa Mountain.
9 Markaasay furteen oo waxay qaateen madaxiisii iyo hubkiisii, oo waxay u cid direen dalkii reer Falastiin oo ku wareegsanaa inay u wargeeyaan sanamyadooda iyo dadkiiba.
They took the clothes off Saul’s corpse and [cut off] his head and took it and Saul’s armor.
10 Oo hubkiisiina gurigii ilaahyadooda ayay dhigeen, oo madaxiisiina waxay ku dhejiyeen gurigii Daagoon.
Then they sent messengers throughout their land, to proclaim the news throughout their own area, to their idols and to the other people. They put Saul’s armor in the temple where their idols were, and they hung Saul’s head in the temple of [their god] Dagon.
11 Oo dadkii Yaabeesh Gilecaad oo dhammu markay maqleen waxyaalihii ay reer Falastiin Saa'uul ku sameeyeen oo dhan,
All the people who lived in Jabesh in [the] Gilead [region] heard what the Philistines had done to Saul’s [corpse].
12 waxaa kacay raggii xoogga lahaa oo dhan, oo waxay soo qaadeen Saa'uul meydkiisii iyo meydadkii wiilashiisa, kolkaasay keeneen Yaabeesh, oo lafahoodii waxay ku aaseen geedkii Yaabeesh ku yiil hoostiisa, toddoba maalmoodna way soomeen.
So the bravest men/soldiers of Jabesh went and got the corpses of Saul and his sons and brought them back to Jabesh. They buried their bones under a large tree in Jabesh. Then the people of Jabesh (fasted/abstained from eating food) for seven days.
13 Haddaba Saa'uul wuxuu u dhintay xadgudubkiisii uu isagu Rabbiga ku xadgudbay, maxaa yeelay, isagu Eraygii Rabbiga ma uu dhawrin, oo weliba isagu wuxuu talo weyddiistay mid ruuxaan lahayd, si uu iyada wax u weyddiisto,
Saul died because he did not faithfully obey what Yahweh told him to do. He even went to a woman who talks to the spirits of dead people and asked her what he should do,
14 oo Rabbiga wax ma uu weyddiisan, oo sidaas aawadeed ayaa Rabbigu isaga u dilay, oo boqortooyadiina wuxuu u wareejiyey Daa'uud oo ahaa ina Yesay.
instead of asking Yahweh what he should do. So Yahweh caused him to die, and he appointed David, the son of Jesse, to be the king [of Israel].
