Samuu'Eel Kowaad 23
1 Markaasaa Daa'uud loo sheegay oo lagu yidhi, Reer Falastiin waxay la dirirayaan reer Qeciilaah iyagoo ka dhacaya meelihii hadhuudhka lagu tumi jiray.
David was told, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and are robbing the threshing floors.”
2 Sidaas daraaddeed Daa'uud Rabbiguu wax weyddiistay oo yidhi, Miyaan tagaa oo kuwan reer Falastiin soo laayaa? Oo Rabbiguna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Tag, oo reer Falastiin soo laa, oo reer Qeciilaah soo badbaadi.
Therefore David inquired of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go and strike these Philistines?” Yahweh said to David, “Go strike the Philistines, and save Keilah.”
3 Markaasaa Daa'uud raggiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, annagu halkan oo ah dalka Yahuudah ayaan ku cabsanaynaa, haddaba intee in le'eg bay nooga sii daran tahay haddaannu Qeciilaah tagno oo ciidanka reer Falastiin ku duulno?
David’s men said to him, “Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?”
4 Oo haddana mar kale ayaa Daa'uud Rabbiga wax weyddiistay. Markaasaa Rabbigu ugu jawaabay, Kac, oo ku dhaadhac Qeciilaah, waayo, reer Falastiin gacantaadaan soo gelin doonaa.
Then David inquired of Yahweh yet again. Yahweh answered him, and said, “Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
5 Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba Qeciilaah tageen, oo reer Falastiin la dirireen, oo waxay ka soo dhaceen lo'doodii, dad faro badanna way laayeen. Sidaasuu Daa'uud dadkii Qeciilaah degganaa u badbaadiyey.
David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their livestock, and killed them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
6 Oo markii Aabyaataar oo ina Axiimeleg ahaa Daa'uud ugu soo cararay xagga Qeciilaah, wuxuu yimid isagoo eefod gacanta ku sita.
When Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.
7 Oo Saa'uul baa loo soo sheegay in Daa'uud Qeciilaah yimid. Markaasaa Saa'uul yidhi, Haddaa Ilaah gacanta ii soo geliyey; waayo, wuxuu ku xidhmay markuu galay magaalo leh irdo iyo qataarro.
Saul was told that David had come to Keilah. Saul said, “God has delivered him into my hand, for he is shut in by entering into a town that has gates and bars.”
8 Markaasaa Saa'uul dadkiisii oo dhan dagaal ugu yeedhay inay Qeciilaah ku dhaadhacaan, oo ay Daa'uud iyo raggiisaba hareereeyaan.
Saul summoned all the people to war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.
9 Oo Daa'uudna wuu ogaa in Saa'uul belaayo la damacsan yahay; markaasuu wadaadkii Aabyaataar ahaa ku yidhi, Halkan eefodka keen.
David knew that Saul was devising mischief against him. He said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod here.”
10 Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, hubaal anoo addoonkaaga ah waxaan maqlay in Saa'uul doonayo inuu Qeciilaah yimaado, oo uu magaaladana daraadday u baabbi'iyo.
Then David said, “O Yahweh, the God of Israel, your servant has surely heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah to destroy the city for my sake.
11 Haddaba dadka reer Qeciilaah miyey isaga ii gacangelin doonaan? Oo Saa'uul miyuu soo dhaadhacayaa sidii anoo addoonkaaga ah aan u maqlay? Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, waan ku baryayaaye, anigoo addoonkaaga ah taas ii sheeg. Markaasaa Rabbigu ku yidhi, Haah, wuu soo dhaadhici doonaa.
Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? Will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? Yahweh, the God of Israel, I beg you, tell your servant.” Yahweh said, “He will come down.”
12 Kolkaasuu Daa'uud yidhi, Haddaba miyey dadka reer Qeciilaah aniga iyo raggaygaba Saa'uul gacanta noo gelin doonaan? Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Haah, way kuu gacangelin doonaan.
Then David said, “Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul?” Yahweh said, “They will deliver you up.”
13 Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo raggiisii oo lix boqol ku dhowaa kaceen oo Qeciilaah ka baxeen, oo waxay tageen meel alla meeshii ay tegi kareen. Oo Saa'uulna waxaa loo soo sheegay in Daa'uud Qeciilaah ka baxsaday, markaasuu iska daayay inuu u soo baxo.
Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah and went wherever they could go. Saul was told that David had escaped from Keilah; and he gave up going there.
14 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu degganaa dhufaysyada cidlada ku yiil, oo wuxuu iska joogay dalka buuraha leh ee cidlada ah ee Siif. Oo Saa'uul baa doondooni jiray maalin kasta, laakiinse Ilaah gacanta uma soo gelin.
David stayed in the wilderness in the strongholds, and remained in the hill country in the wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God didn’t deliver him into his hand.
15 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu arkay in Saa'uul u soo baxay si uu naftiisa u deydeyo. Daa'uudna cidlada Siif buu ku jiray, duurka dhexdiisa.
David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life. David was in the wilderness of Ziph in the woods.
16 Markaasaa Saa'uul wiilkiisii Yoonaataan ahaa kacay, oo Daa'uud ugu tegey duurka dhexdiisa, oo gacantiisuu ku xoogeeyey Ilaah.
Jonathan, Saul’s son, arose and went to David into the woods, and strengthened his hand in God.
17 Oo wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, Ha cabsan, waayo, aabbahay Saa'uul gacantiisu kuma heli doonto; oo adna reer binu Israa'iil boqor baad u noqon doontaa, oo anna waan kugu xigi doonaa; taasna aabbahay Saa'uul waa og yahay.
He said to him, “Don’t be afraid, for the hand of Saul my father won’t find you; and you will be king over Israel, and I will be next to you; and Saul my father knows that also.”
18 Oo labadoodii axdi bay Rabbiga hortiisa ku dhigteen. Oo Daa'uud wuxuu iska joogay duurkii, Yoonaataanna gurigiisii buu tegey.
They both made a covenant before Yahweh. Then David stayed in the woods and Jonathan went to his house.
19 Markaasaa Saa'uul waxaa Gibecaah ugu yimid reer Siif, waxayna ku yidhaahdeen, Daa'uud miyaanu ku dhuuman dhufaysyada dalkayaga duurka ku yaal, oo ku dhex yaal buurta Xakiilaah, oo lamadegaanka xaggiisa koonfureed ku taal?
Then the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, “Doesn’t David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the woods, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert?
20 Haddaba, boqorow, soo dhaadhac adigoo aad u doonaya inaad timaadid; oo annana qaybtayadu wuxuu ahaan doonaa inaan gacantaada ku soo ridno, boqorow.
Now therefore, O king, come down. According to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part will be to deliver him up into the king’s hand.”
21 Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Kuwo xagga Rabbiga ka barakaysan noqda; waayo, idinku waad ii naxariisateen.
Saul said, “You are blessed by Yahweh, for you have had compassion on me.
22 Haddaba waan idin baryayaaye weliba taga oo sii hubsada, oo waxaad soo ogaataan oo soo aragtaan meeshuu u caado leeyahay, iyo kii isaga halkaas ku soo arkay, waayo, waxaa la ii soo sheegay inuu aad xeelad ugu macaamiloodo.
Please go make yet more sure, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and who has seen him there; for I have been told that he is very cunning.
23 Sidaas daraaddeed soo arka oo soo wada ogaada meelaha uu ku gabbado ee uu ku dhuunto oo dhanba, oo mar kale igu soo noqda idinkoo aad u huba, markaasaan idin raaci doonaa, oo haddii uu dhulka dhex joogo, waxaan isaga ka dhex baadhi doonaa kumanyaalka reer Yahuudah oo dhan.
See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides himself; and come again to me with certainty, and I will go with you. It shall happen, if he is in the land, that I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.”
24 Markaasay Saa'uul hor mareen, oo ay u kaceen xagga Siif, laakiinse Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba waxay joogeen cidlada reer Maacoon ku dhex taal Caraabaah ee lamadegaanka xaggiisa koonfureed ku taal.
They arose, and went to Ziph before Saul; but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah on the south of the desert.
25 Markaasaa Saa'uul iyo raggiisiiba waxay u soo baxeen inay Daa'uud doondoonaan. Oo iyana taas bay u sheegeen Daa'uud, sidaas daraaddeed ayuu u dhaadhacay xagga dhagaxii weynaa, oo cidladii Maacoon ayuu iska joogay. Oo Saa'uulna markuu taas maqlay ayuu Daa'uud u eryaday xagga cidladii Maacoon.
Saul and his men went to seek him. When David was told, he went down to the rock, and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. When Saul heard that, he pursued David in the wilderness of Maon.
26 Oo Saa'uulna wuxuu maray buurta dhankeedii soke, Daa'uud iyo raggiisiina waxay mareen buurta dhankeedii shishe, oo Daa'uudna wuu dhaqsaday inuu u cararo cabsi uu Saa'uul ka qabo aawadeed, waayo, Saa'uul iyo raggiisii waxay u hareereeyeen Daa'uud iyo raggiisii inay qabtaan.
Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David hurried to get away for fear of Saul, for Saul and his men surrounded David and his men to take them.
27 Laakiinse wargeeys baa Saa'uul u yimid oo ku yidhi, Soo dhaqso oo kaalay; waayo, reer Falastiin weerar bay ku soo kacsheen dalkii.
But a messenger came to Saul, saying, “Hurry and come, for the Philistines have made a raid on the land!”
28 Oo sidaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wuu ka noqday Daa'uud kii uu eryanayay, oo wuxuu u kacay kuwii reer Falastiin, sidaas aawadeed waxay meeshaas u bixiyeen Selac Hammaxleqood.
So Saul returned from pursuing David, and went against the Philistines. Therefore they called that place Sela Hammahlekoth.
29 Oo Daa'uudna halkaas wuu ka tegey, oo iska joogay Ceyn Gedii dhufaysyadeedii.
David went up from there and lived in the strongholds of En Gedi.
