Samuu'Eel Kowaad 29
1 Haddaba reer Falastiin waxay ciidammadoodii oo dhan ku soo ururiyeen Afeeq, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay soo ag degeen ishii ku tiil Yesreceel.
The Philistines gathered all their armies at Aphek, and the Israelites set up camp by the spring in Jezreel.
2 Oo saraakiishii reer Falastiinna way soo gudbeen iyagoo ah boqol boqol iyo kun kun, oo Daa'uud iyo raggiisiina iyagoo Aakiish la socda ayay soo daba galeen.
The Philistine rulers were marching out in their divisions of hundreds and thousands with David and his men at the rear with King Achish.
3 Markaasaa amiirradii reer Falastiin waxay yidhaahdeen, Kuwan Cibraaniyada ahu maxay halkan ka samaynayaan? Aakiishna wuxuu amiirradii reer Falastiin ku yidhi, War kanu sow ma aha Daa'uud oo ahaa addoonkii boqorka reer binu Israa'iil ee Saa'uul ah, oo ila joogay maalmahan iyo sannadahanba, oo aanan innaba xumaan ka helin tan iyo maalintii uu ii yimid ilaa maantadan?
But the Philistine commanders asked, “What are these Hebrews doing here?” Achish replied to the Philistine commanders, “That's David, an officer of King Saul of Israel. He's been with me for a long time, years even, and I haven't found any fault in him since the day he came over to our side up till now.”
4 Laakiinse amiirradii reer Falastiin aad bay ugu cadhoodeen, markaasay amiirradii reer Falastiin ku yidhaahdeen, War ninkan celi, si uu ugu noqdo meeshiisii aad u dooratay, oo yuusan dagaalka noo raacin, waaba intaasoo intaannu dagaalka ku jirno uu col noo noqdaa, waayo, ninkanu bal muxuu sayidkiisii kula heshiin karaa? Sow ma aha nimankan madaxyadooda?
But the Philistine commanders got angry with Achish, and told him, “Send him back to the place he came from, to the town you assigned to him. He can't go with us into battle. What if he turns on us during the fighting? What a great way for him to please his master—by handing over the heads of our men!
5 Kanu sow ma aha Daa'uud kii ay gabay isugu celceliyeen, iyagoo cayaaraya, oo leh, Saa'uul wuxuu laayay kumanyaalkiisii, Daa'uudna wuxuu laayay tobanyaalkiisii kun?
Isn't this the David they sing about in their dances: ‘Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands’?”
6 Markaasaa Aakiish Daa'uud u yeedhay, oo ku yidhi, Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye, adigu waad qummanayd, oo markaynu ciidanka dhex soconnay siibixiddaada iyo soogeliddaaduba hortayda way ku wanaagsanaayeen, waayo, ilaa maalintii aad ii timid iyo maantadan la joogo innaba xumaan kuguma aanan arkin; habase yeeshee saraakiishu raalli kaama aha.
So Achish called David over and told him, “As the Lord lives, you are honest and you've done what's right as far as I can see. As far as I'm concerned you should march with me into battle because I haven't found any fault in you from the day you arrived until now. But the other leaders don't approve of you.
7 Sidaas daraaddeed iska noqo, oo nabad ku tag, yaadan saraakiisha reer Falastiin calool xumayne.
So go back home in peace, and that way you won't do anything to upset the Philistine leaders.”
8 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Aakiish ku yidhi, War maxaan sameeyey? Oo xumaanmaad igu aragtay anoo addoonkaaga ah intii aan kula joogay iyo ilaa maantadan, oo maxaa laygu diiday si aanan u tegin oo aanan ula diririn cadaawayaashaada, boqorow sayidkaygiiyow?
“But what have I done?” David asked. “What fault have you found in me, your servant, from the day I came to you until now, that would prevent me from going to fight the enemies of my lord the king?”
9 Markaasaa Aakiish Daa'uud ugu jawaabay, Anigu waan ogahay inaad hortayda ku wanaagsan tahay, oo waxaad iila mid tahay malaa'ig Ilaah, habase yeeshee amiirradii reer Falastiin waxay yidhaahdeen, Isagu dagaalka noo raaci maayo.
“As far as I'm concerned, you're as good as an angel of God,” Achish replied. “But the Philistine commanders have stated, ‘He can't go into battle with us.’
10 Haddaba aroor hore adiga iyo sayidkaaga addoommadiisii oo kula socdaaba kaca; oo aroortii markaad kacdaan oo waagu idiin baryo, taga.
So get up early tomorrow morning and leave with your men as soon as it's light.”
11 Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba aroor hore keceen, si ay subaxdii u tagaan, oo ay ugu noqdaan dalkii reer Falastiin. Oo kuwii reer Falastiinna kor bay ugu sii baxeen xagga Yesreceel.
David and his men got up early in the morning and went back to the country of the Philistines. But the Philistines advanced on Jezreel.
