Samuu'Eel Kowaad 15
1 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu Saa'uul ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu ii soo diray inaan kuu subko inaad boqor u ahaatid dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil; haddaba bal maqal codka erayada Rabbiga.
Samuel told Saul, “The Lord sent me to anoint you king of his people Israel. So now pay attention to what the Lord has to say.
2 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer binu Israa'iil markay Masar ka soo baxeen, Camaaleq wuxuu ku sameeyey iyo siduu jidka ugu hor joogsaday waan ogaaday.
This is what the Lord Almighty says: I observed what the Amalekites did to Israel when they ambushed them on their way from Egypt.
3 Haddaba tag oo reer Camaaleq laa, oo waxay haystaan oo dhan wada baabbi'i, oo iyaga innaba ha u tudhin, laakiinse wada laa nin iyo naag, iyo dhallaan iyo caanonuugba, iyo dibi iyo ido, iyo geel iyo dameerroba.
Go and attack the Amalekites and exterminate all of them. Don't spare anyone, but kill every man, woman, child, and baby; every ox, sheep, camel, and donkey.”
4 Markaasaa Saa'uul dadkii u yeedhay, oo Tela'iim buu ku tiriyey, oo waxay noqdeen laba boqol oo kun oo nin oo lug ah, iyo toban kun oo nin ee reer Yahuudah ah.
Saul called up his army at Telem. There were 200,000 Israelite infantry and 10,000 men from Judah.
5 Kolkaasuu Saa'uul yimid magaaladii reer Camaaleq, oo dooxadii buu ugu soo dhuuntay.
Saul advanced on the town of Amalek and set up an ambush in the valley.
6 Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu reer Qeyn ku yidhi, Taga oo ka dhex baxa reer Camaaleq, yaanan idinku dhex baabbi'ine; waayo, markii ay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu Masar ka soo baxeen waad u wada roonaateen. Sidaas aawadeed reer Qeyn way ka dhex baxeen reer Camaaleq.
Saul sent a message to warn the Kenites, “Move out of the area and leave the Amalekites so that I don't destroy you with them, because you showed kindness to all the people of Israel on their way from Egypt.” So the Kenites moved away and left the Amalekites.
7 Oo Saa'uul wuxuu reer Camaaleq ku laayay xagga Xawiilaah ilaa xagga Shuur, taasoo ku taal Masar horteeda.
Saul defeated the Amalekites from Havilah as far as Shur, to the east of Egypt.
8 Oo boqorkii reer Camaaleq oo Agag ahaa isagoo nool buu qabsaday, laakiinse dadkii kale oo dhan seef buu ku wada baabbi'iyey.
He captured Agag, king of Amalek, alive, but exterminated all the people by the sword.
9 Laakiinse Saa'uul iyo dadkiiba way reebeen Agag, iyo intii ugu wanaagsanayd oo dhan oo idihii, iyo dibidii, iyo xoolihii shishislaa, iyo wanankii yaryaraa, iyo wixii wanaagsanaa oo dhan; oo ma ay doonayn inay wada baabbi'iyaan; laakiinse waxay wada baabbi'iyeen wixii la quudhsaday iyo intii liidatay oo dhan.
Saul and his army spared Agag, together with the best sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs, and everything else that was any good. They didn't want to destroy those, but they completely destroyed all that was unwanted and worthless.
10 Markaasaa Samuu'eel waxaa u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo ku leh,
The Lord sent a message to Samuel, saying,
11 Waxaan ka qoomamoonayaa inaan Saa'uul boqor ka dhigay; waayo, lasocodkaygii dib buu uga noqday, oo mana uu oofin amarradaydii. Oo Samuu'eelna wuu cadhooday oo habeenkii oo dhan Rabbiguu u qaylinayay.
“I'm sorry I made Saul king, for he has given up following me and hasn't done as I ordered.” Samuel was upset, and he cried out to the Lord all through the night.
12 Markaasaa Samuu'eel aroor hore kacay, oo wuxuu damcay inuu Saa'uul ka hor tago; oo waxaa Samuu'eel loo sheegay oo lagu yidhi, Saa'uul baa yimid Karmel, oo bal eeg, halkaas tiir xusuus ah ayuu ka taagtay, oo intuu wareegay ayuu gudbay, oo Gilgaal ku dhaadhacay.
Samuel got up early in the morning and went to meet Saul, but he was told, “Saul's gone to Carmel. There he's even erected a monument to honor himself, and now he's left and gone down to Gilgal.”
13 Oo Samuu'eelna Saa'uul buu u yimid; markaasaa Saa'uul ku yidhi isagii, Rabbigu ha ku barakeeyo; anigu amarkii Rabbiga waan oofiyey.
When Samuel caught up with him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have done what the Lord ordered.”
14 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, Haddaba waa maxay micneheedu cidan idaha ee aan dhegahayga ku maqlayaa, iyo cida dibida ee aan maqlayaa?
“So what's this bleating of sheep my ears are picking up? What's this lowing of cattle that I'm hearing?” Samuel asked.
15 Oo Saa'uulna wuxuu yidhi, Reer Camaaleq bay ka keeneen; waayo, dadku waxay u reebeen intii ugu wanaagsanayd ee idihii iyo dibidii inay allabari ugu bixiyaan Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah; intii kalese dhammaantood waannu baabbi'innay.
“The army brought them from the Amalekites,” Saul replied. “They spared the best sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we completely destroyed the rest.”
16 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu Saa'uul ku yidhi, Bal sug, oo anna waxaan kuu sheegayaa wixii Rabbigu xalay igu yidhi. Markaasuu yidhi, Bal ii sheeg.
“Oh, be quiet!” Samuel told Saul. “Let me tell you what the Lord told me last night.” “Tell me what he said,” Saul replied.
17 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, In kastoo aad isla yarayd, sow madax lagaagama dhigin qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil? Oo Rabbigu waa kuu subkay inaad ahaato boqor u taliya reer binu Israa'iil;
“Once you didn't use to think much of yourself, but haven't you become the leader of the tribes of Israel?” Samuel asked. “The Lord anointed you king of Israel.
18 oo Rabbigu sodcaal buu kuu diray, oo kugu yidhi, Tag oo wada baabbi'i dembilayaasha reer Camaaleq, oo la dirir ilaa ay baabba'aan.
Then he sent you out to do something, telling you, ‘Go and exterminate those sinners, the Amalekites. Attack them until they're all destroyed.’
19 Haddaba maxaad Rabbiga codkiisa u addeeci weyday, oo aadse ugu boodday wixii la dhacay, oo maxaad u samaysay wixii Rabbiga hortiisa sharka ku ahaa?
Why didn't you do what the Lord ordered? Why did you swoop down on the plunder and do what was evil in the Lord's sight?”
20 Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Waan addeecay Rabbiga codkiisii, oo waxaan maray jidkii Rabbigu igu diray, oo Agag oo ah boqorkii reer Camaaleq ayaan keenay, oo reer Camaaleqna dhammaan waan wada baabbi'iyey.
“But I did do what the Lord ordered!” Saul replied. “I went and did what the Lord sent me to do. I brought back Agag, king of Amalek, and completely destroyed the Amalekites.
21 Laakiinse dadkii wax bay ka qaateen xoolihii la dhacay ee ahaa ido iyo dibi, iyo waxyaalihii khaaska ahaa ee la nidray inay Gilgaal allabari ugu bixiyaan Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah.
The army took sheep and cattle from the plunder, the best of what was consecrated to God, to sacrifice them to the Lord your God in Gilgal.”
22 Markaasaa Samuu'eel yidhi, Rabbigu miyuu aad ugu farxaa qurbaanno la gubo iyo allabaryo, siduu ugu farxo in codka Rabbiga la addeeco? Bal eeg, addeeciddu waa ka wanaagsan tahay allabariga, maqlidduna waa ka wanaagsan tahay baruurta wananka.
“Does the Lord prefer burnt offerings and sacrifices, or obedience to what he says?” Samuel asked. “Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice. Paying attention is more important than offering the fat of rams.
23 Waayo, caasinimadu waxay la mid tahay dembiga sixirka, madaxadaygguna wuxuu la mid yahay shar iyo sanam caabudidda. Waxaad diidday Eraygii Rabbiga, oo sidaas daraaddeed isna wuxuu kuu diiday inaad boqor sii ahaatid.
Rebellion is as bad as witchcraft, and arrogance is as bad as the sin of idolatry. Because you have rejected the Lord's commands, he has rejected you as king.”
24 Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Waan dembaabay, waayo, amarkii Rabbiga, iyo erayadaadiiba waan ku xadgudbay, maxaa yeelay, dadkii baan ka cabsaday, codkoodiina waan addeecay.
“I have sinned,” Saul confessed to Samuel. “I disobeyed the Lord's orders and your instructions, because I was afraid of the people and followed what they said.
25 Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye dembigayga iga cafi, oo mar kale ila noqo, aan Rabbiga soo caabudee.
So please forgive my sin and come back with me, so I can worship the Lord.”
26 Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu Saa'uul ku yidhi, Kula noqon maayo, waayo, Eraygii Rabbigaad diidday, oo Rabbigaana kuu diiday inaad sii ahaatid boqor reer binu Israa'iil u taliya.
But Samuel told him, “I'm not going back with you. You have rejected the Lord's orders, and the Lord has rejected you as king of Israel!”
27 Oo markii Samuu'eel ka jeestay oo uu damcay inuu tago, ayuu qabsaday darafkii khamiiskiisa, wuuna dillaacay.
As Samuel turned away to leave, Saul grabbed hold of the hem of his robe, and it ripped.
28 Markaasaa Samuu'eel isagii ku yidhi, Maanta Rabbigu boqortooyadii reer binu Israa'iil buu kaa dillaaciyey, wuxuuna siiyey mid deriskaaga ah oo kaa sii wanaagsan.
Samuel said to him, “The Lord has ripped the kingdom of Israel away from you today and has given it to your neighbor—someone who is better than you!
29 Kan xoogga reer binu Israa'iil ahna been sheegi maayo, qoomamaynna maayo; waayo, isagu ma aha nin qoomamooda.
In addition, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind, for he is not a human being who changes his mind!”
30 Markaasuu yidhi, Waan dembaabay; haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, igu murwee duqowda dadkayga hortooda, iyo reer binu Israa'iil hortooda, oo mar kale ila noqo aan Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah soo caabudee.
“Yes, I have sinned,” Saul replied. “Please honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel—come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord your God.”
31 Haddaba Samuu'eel mar kaluu Saa'uul la noqday, oo Saa'uulna Rabbiguu soo caabuday.
So Samuel went back with Saul after all, and Saul worshiped the Lord.
32 Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, Halkan iigu keena boqorka reer Camaaleq ee Agag ah. Kolkaasaa Agag u yimid isagoo qalbi san. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Hubaal geerida qadhaadhkeedii waa i dhaafay.
Then Samuel said, “Bring me Agag, king of the Amalekites.” Agag came to him confidently, for he thought, “The threat of death of being killed must have passed.”
33 Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu ku yidhi, Sida seeftaadu dumarka u ilmo tirtay, saasoo kalay hooyadaana dumarka dhexdiisa ugu ilmola'aan doontaa. Oo Samuu'eelna Agag ayuu cad cad ugu jarjaray Gilgaal dhexdeeda Rabbiga hortiisa.
But Samuel said, “In the same way that your sword has made women childless, so too your mother will be childless among women.” Samuel cut Agag to pieces before the Lord at Gilgal.
34 Markaasaa Samuu'eel Raamaah tegey; oo Saa'uulna wuxuu tegey xaggii gurigiisii oo ku yiil Gibecaahdii Saa'uul.
Samuel left for Ramah, and Saul went home to Gibeah of Saul.
35 Samuu'eelna mar dambe uma iman inuu Saa'uul soo arko ilaa maalintii uu dhintay; laakiin Samuu'eel baa Saa'uul u ooyay; oo Rabbiguna wuxuu ka qoomamooday inuu Saa'uul ka dhigay boqor u taliya reer binu Israa'iil.
Until the day of his death, Samuel never visited Saul again. Samuel mourned over Saul, and the Lord regretted he had made Saul the king of Israel.
