Samuu'Eel Kowaad 27
1 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu isyidhi, Maalin uun baan gacanta Saa'uul ku dhiman doonaa; haddaba wax iiga wanaagsan ma jiro inaan dalka reer Falastiin u baxsado mooyaane; oo Saa'uulna wuu iga quusan doonaa, oo mar dambe xuduudka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan igama doondooni doono; oo saas ayaan gacantiisa kaga baxsan doonaa.
David said in his heart, “I will now perish one day by Saul's hand; there is nothing better for me than to escape into the land of the Philistines; Saul will give up looking for me any more within all the borders of Israel; in this way I will escape out of his hand.”
2 Markaasaa Daa'uud kacay oo gudbay, isagii iyo lixdii boqol oo nin ee isaga la joogay, oo waxay u yimaadeen Aakiish oo ahaa ina Maacoog, kaasoo ahaa boqorkii Gad.
David arose and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish son of Maok, the king of Gath.
3 Oo Daa'uudna Aakiish buu la joogi jiray Gad, isagii iyo raggiisiiba, oo nin waluba reerkiisii wuu watay, oo xataa Daa'uud wuu watay labadiisii naagood, kuwaasoo ahaa Axiinocam tii reer Yesreceel iyo Abiigayil tii reer Karmel oo Naabaal u dhaxday.
David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, each man with his own household, and David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelite woman, and Abigail the Carmelite woman, Nabal's wife.
4 Markaasaa Saa'uul waxaa loo soo sheegay in Daa'uud u cararay xagga Gad, oo isna mar dambe ma uusan doondoonin.
Saul was told that David had fled to Gath, so he looked for him no longer.
5 Kolkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Aakiish ku yidhi, Haddaba haddaad raalli iga tahay, magaalooyinka duurka ku yaal meel ha iga siiyeen, aan halkaas iska degee, waayo, bal anoo addoonkaaga ah maxaan magaalada reer boqor kuula degganahay?
David said to Achish, “If I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may live there. Why should your servant live in the royal city with you?”
6 Maalintaasaa Aakiish siiyey Siiqlag, oo sidaas aawadeed Siiqlag ilaa maanta waxaa iska leh boqorrada dalka Yahuudah.
So that day Achish gave him Ziklag; that is why Ziklag belongs to the kings of Judah to this very day.
7 Oo maalmihii Daa'uud joogay duurka reer Falastiin tiradoodu waxay ahayd sannad dhan iyo afar bilood.
The number of days that David lived in the land of the Philistines was a full year and four months.
8 Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo raggiisii u keceen inay weeraraan reer Geshuur, iyo reer Geser, iyo reer Camaaleq, waayo, quruumahaas ayaa waagii hore dalka degganaa, oo waxay degganaayeen ilaa Shuur iyo xataa tan iyo dalka Masar.
David and his men attacked various places, making raids on the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites; for those nations were the inhabitants of the land, as you go to Shur, as far as the land of Egypt. They had been living there in the land from ancient times.
9 Markaasaa Daa'uud dalkii weeraray, oo nololna kuma uu dayn nin iyo naag toona, wuxuuna la tegey idihii, iyo dibidii, iyo dameerrihii, iyo geelii, iyo dharkii, dabadeedna wuu soo noqday, oo Aakiish u yimid.
David attacked the land and saved neither man nor woman alive; he took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the clothing; he would return and come again to Achish.
10 Markaasaa Aakiish wuxuu ku yidhi, Yaad maanta soo dhacdeen? Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaannu weerarnay xagga koonfureed oo dalka Yahuudah, iyo xagga koonfureed oo reer Yeraxme'eel iyo xagga koonfureed oo reer Qeyn.
Achish would say, “Against whom have you made a raid today?” David would answer, “Against the south of Judah,” or “Against the south of the Jerahmeelites,” or “Against the south of the Kenites.”
11 Oo Daa'uudna nolol kuma uu dayn nin iyo naag toona, inuu Gad keeno aawadeed, waayo, wuxuu isyidhi, Waaba intaasoo ay inagu sheekaystaan oo yidhaahdaan, Daa'uud saasuu yeelay, caadadiisuna saasay ahayd intuu duurka reer Falastiin degganaa oo dhan.
David would keep neither man nor woman alive to bring them to Gath, saying, “So that they cannot say about us, 'David did such and such.'” This was what he did all the while he was living in the country of the Philistines.
12 Aakiishna Daa'uud buu aaminay, oo wuxuu isyidhi, Isagu dadkiisii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan wuu isku diray oo aad bay u karahsadeen isaga; sidaas daraaddeed isagu wuxuu ii ahaan doonaa addoon weligiisba.
Achish believed David, saying, “He has made his people Israel utterly abhor him; he will therefore be my servant forever.”
