Samuu'Eel Kowaad 24
1 Kolkii Saa'uul ka soo noqday kuwii reer Falastiin oo uu raacdaysanayay ayaa loo soo sheegay oo lagu yidhi, Daa'uud cidlada Ceyn Gedii buu joogaa.
And when Saul had returned after pursuing the Philistines, they reported to him, saying, “Behold, David is in the desert of Engedi.”
2 Markaasaa Saa'uul reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan kala baxay saddex kun oo nin oo la doortay, oo wuxuu Daa'uud iyo raggiisii ka xulayay dhagaxyadii ay riyodibadeedku joogeen.
Therefore, Saul, taking three thousand elect men from all of Israel, traveled in order to search for David and his men, even upon the most broken rocks, which are passable only to mountain goats.
3 Markaasuu wuxuu yimid xeryihii idaha oo jidka ku ag yiil, oo halkaasna waxaa ku tiil bohol; markaasaa Saa'uul halkaas u galay inuu cagihiisa qariyo aawadeed. Haddaba Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba waxay ku jireen bohosha meelaha ugu sii hooseeya.
And he arrived at the sheepfolds, which presented themselves along the way. And a cave was in that place, which Saul entered, so that he might ease his bowels. But David and his men were hiding in the interior part of the cave.
4 Oo Daa'uudna raggiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, maanta waa maalintii Rabbigu kugu yidhi, Cadowgaaga gacantaadaan ku soo ridi doonaa, oo waxaad ku samayn doontaa wixii kula wanaagsan. Markaasaa Daa'uud kacay, oo hoos ahaan ayuu aayar u gooyay Saa'uul darafkii khamiiskiisa.
And the servants of David said to him: “Behold the day, about which the Lord said to you, ‘I will deliver your enemy to you, so that you may do to him as it will be pleasing in your eyes.’” Then David rose up, and he quietly cut off the edge of Saul’s cloak.
5 Oo waxay hadhow noqotay in Daa'uud qalbigiisii naxdini ku dhacday, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu gooyay darafkii khamiiskii Saa'uul.
After this, his own heart struck David, because he had cut off the edge of Saul’s cloak.
6 Markaasuu wuxuu raggiisii ku yidhi, Rabbigu ha iga fogeeyo inaan waxan ku sameeyo sayidkayga kaasoo ah Rabbiga kiisa subkan, iyo inaan isaga gacanta u qaada, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu yahay Rabbiga kiisa subkan.
And he said to his men: “May the Lord be gracious to me, lest I do this thing to my lord, the Christ of the Lord, so that I lay my hand upon him. For he is the Christ of the Lord.”
7 Sidaasaa Daa'uud raggiisii ugu diiday erayadaas, oo umana uu oggolaan inay Saa'uul ku kacaan. Markaasaa Saa'uul ka soo baxay bohoshii, oo iska tegey.
And David restrained his men with his words, and he would not permit them to rise up against Saul. And so Saul, going out of the cave, continued to undertake his journey.
8 Oo Daa'uudna mar dambuu kacay oo bohoshii ka soo baxay, oo wuxuu ka daba qayliyey Saa'uul, oo ku yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, boqorow. Oo Saa'uulna markuu dib dhugtay ayaa Daa'uud wejiga dhulka saaray, wuuna sujuuday.
Then David also rose up after him. And departing from the cave, he cried out behind the back of Saul, saying: “My lord, the king!” And Saul looked behind him. And David, bowing himself face down to the ground, reverenced.
9 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu Saa'uul ku yidhi, War maxaad u maqashaa dadka warkiisa intay kugu yidhaahdaan, Daa'uud wuxuu doonayaa inuu wax ku yeelo?
And he said to Saul: “Why do you listen to the words of men who say: ‘David seeks evil against you?’
10 Bal eeg, maanta indhahaagu way arkeen sida Rabbigu iigu soo kaa gacangeliyey annagoo godka ku jirna, oo qaarna, Dil, bay igu yidhaahdeen, laakiinse waan kuu naxay; oo waxaan idhi, Anigu sayidkayga gacanta u qaadi maayo, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa Rabbiga kiisa subkan.
Behold, this day your eyes have seen that the Lord has delivered you into my hand, in the cave. And I thought that I might kill you. But my eye has spared you. For I said: I will not extend my hand against my lord, for he is the Christ of the Lord.
11 Bal eeg, aabbow, bal eeg haddana darafkii khamiiskaaga oo gacantayda ku jira, waayo, waxaan gooyay darafkii khamiiskaaga, kumana diline, haddaba ogow inayan gacantayda ku jirin shar iyo xadgudub toona, oo anna kuguma aanan dembaabin, in kastoo aad naftayda u gaadaysid inaad iga qaaddid.
Moreover, see and know, O my father, the edge of your cloak in my hand. For though I cut off the top of your cloak, I was not willing to extend my hand against you. Turn your soul and see that there is no evil in my hand, nor any iniquity or sin against you. Yet you lie in wait for my life, so that you may take it away.
12 Rabbigu aniga iyo adiga ha ina kala xukumo, oo Rabbigu ha iiga kaa aar gudo, gacantayduse ku taaban mayso.
May the Lord judge between me and you. And may the Lord vindicate me from you. But my hand will not be against you.
13 Sida ay leedahay maahmaahdii dadkii hore, Kii shar ah waxaa ka soo baxda sharnimo, gacantayduse ku taaban mayso.
So too, it is said in the ancient proverb, ‘From the impious, impiety will go forth.’ Therefore, my hand will not be upon you.
14 Bal boqorkii reer binu Israa'iilow, yaad ka soo daba baxaysaa? Oo bal yaad eryanaysaa? Ma eey bakhti ah, mase tagfi?
Whom are you pursuing, O king of Israel? Whom are you pursuing? You are pursuing a dead dog, a single flea.
15 Haddaba Rabbigu aniga iyo adiga dhexdeenna xaakin ha ka ahaado oo ha inoo garnaqo, oo ha arko gartayda, gacantaadana ha iga samatabbixiyo.
May the Lord be the judge, and may he judge between me and you. And may he see and judge my case, and rescue me from your hand.”
16 Markii Daa'uud hadalkaas Saa'uul u dhammeeyey ayaa Saa'uulna wuxuu yidhi, Wiilkaygii Daa'uudow, kaasu ma codkaagii baa? Saa'uulna codkiisii kor buu u qaaday oo ooyay.
And when David had completed speaking words in this way to Saul, Saul said, “Could this be your voice, my son David?” And Saul lifted up his voice, and he wept.
17 Kolkaasuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Aad baad iiga qumman tahay, waayo, wanaag baad ii fashay, anse xumaan baan kuugu beddelay.
And he said to David: “You are more just than I am. For you have distributed good to me, but I have repaid evil to you.
18 Oo adna maanta waxaad caddaysay sidii aad si wanaagsan iigula macaamilootay, waayo, markii Rabbigu gacantaada igu soo riday ima aadan dilin.
And you have revealed this day the good that you have done for me: how the Lord delivered me into your hand, but you did not kill me.
19 Waayo, haddii nin cadowgiisa helo miyuu wanaag ku sii dayn lahaa? Sidaas daraaddeed tan aad maanta ii samaysay aawadeed Rabbigu wanaag ha kuugu abaalgudo.
For who, when he will have found his enemy, will release him along a good path? So may the Lord repay you for this good turn, because you have acted on my behalf this day.
20 Oo hadda bal eeg, hubaal waan ogahay inaad boqor noqonaysid, iyo in boqortooyada reer binu Israa'iil gacantaada ku dhismi doonto.
And now I know certainly that you shall be king, and you shall have the kingdom of Israel in your hand.
21 Haddaba bal Rabbiga iigu dhaaro, inaadan gooynayn farcankayga iga dambeeya, iyo inaadan magacayga reer aabbahay ka dhex baabbi'inayn.
Swear to me in the Lord that you will not take away my offspring after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father.”
22 Markaasaa Daa'uud u dhaartay Saa'uul. Oo Saa'uulna gurigiisii buu tegey, laakiinse Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba waxay galeen dhufayskii.
And David swore to Saul. Therefore, Saul went away to his own house. And David and his men ascended to places that were more secure.
