Samuu'Eel Labaad 1
1 Dhimashadii Saa'uul dabadeed, markii Daa'uud ka soo noqday layntii reer Camaaleq oo uu Daa'uud laba maalmood Siiqlag sii joogay
And so it was, after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the smiting of the Amalekites, and David had abode in Ziklag two days,
2 ayaa xataa maalintii saddexaad nin ka yimid xeradii Saa'uul isagoo maryo jeexjeexan, madaxana ciidu kaga taal, oo markuu Daa'uud u yimid ayuu dhulka ku dhacay oo sujuuday.
yea so it was, on the third day, that lo! a man came out of the camp, from Saul, with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head, —and so it was, when he came in unto David, that he fell to the earth, and did homage.
3 Markaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi, Xaggee baad ka timid? Markaasuu isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ka soo baxsaday xeradii reer binu Israa'iil.
And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel, am I escaped.
4 Daa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, sidee baa wax u dhaceen? Bal ii sheeg. Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Dadkii dagaalkii way ka carareen, oo dadkii badidiisiina way le'deen; oo Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataanba waa dhinteen.
And David said unto him—How turned out the matter? tell me, I pray thee. And he said—The people have fled from the battle, yea moreover, many, of the people have fallen, and died, Yea moreover, Saul, and Jonathan his son, are dead.
5 Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa, oo u soo warramay, War sidee baad u ogaatay in Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataanba ay dhinteen?
Then said David unto the young man who was telling him, —How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?
6 Markaasaa ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo u soo warramay, wuxuu ku yidhi, Markaan si lamafilaan ah Buur Gilboca u soo gaadhay, waxaan arkay Saa'uul oo ku tiirsan warankiisii, gaadhifardoodkii iyo fardooleydiina aad bay u eryanayeen.
And the young man who was telling him said, It, so happened, that I was on Mount Gilboa, when lo! Saul, leaning upon his spear, and lo! the chariots and horsemen, hotly pursued him;
7 Oo markuu gadaashiisa dhugtay ayuu i arkay, oo ii yeedhay. Oo anna waxaan ugu jawaabay, Waa i kan.
so he turned behind him, and saw me, —and cried out unto me, and I said, Behold me!
8 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Yaad tahay? Oo anna waxaan ugu jawaabay, Nin reer Camaaleq ah baan ahay.
And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I said unto him, An Amalekite, am I.
9 Oo isna wuxuu igu yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, bal i soo ag joogso, oo i dil, waayo, wareer baa i haya; waayo, weli naftii waa igu jirtaa.
And he said unto me, I pray thee, take thy stand by me, and put me to death, for the cramp hath seized me, —even for as long as my life shall be in me.
10 Saas aawadeed waan ag joogsaday oo waan dilay, maxaa yeelay, waan hubay markuu dhacay dabadeed inuusan noolaanayn; oo markaasaan ka soo qaaday taajkii madaxa u saarnaa, iyo dugaagaddii gacanta ugu jirtay, waanan kuu keenay, sayidkaygiiyow.
So I took my stand by him, and put him to death, for I perceived that he could not survive his fall, —so I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them in unto my lord, here.
11 Markaasaa Daa'uud dharkiisii jeexjeexay; oo raggii isaga la jiray oo dhammuna saasoo kalay wada yeeleen,
Then David took hold of his clothes, and rent them, —yea moreover, [so did] all the men who were with him.
12 wayna u baroorteen, oo u ooyeen, oo u soomeen ilaa fiidkii Saa'uul, iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataan, iyo dadkii Rabbiga, iyo reer binu Israa'iil aawadood; maxaa yeelay, seef bay ku le'deen.
And they lamented aloud, and wept, and fasted until the evening, —for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Yahweh, and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Kolkaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo u soo warramay, Xaggee baad ka timid? Isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Waxaan ahay nin qalaad wiilkiis oo reer Camaaleq ah.
And David said unto the young man who was telling him, Whence art thou? And he said, Son of a sojourner—an Amalekite, am I.
14 Daa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Sidee baad uga cabsan weyday inaad gacantaada u qaaddo Rabbiga kiisa subkan?
And David said unto him, —How wast thou not afraid to thrust forth thy hand, to destroy the Anointed of Yahweh?
15 Dabadeedna Daa'uud wuxuu u yeedhay raggii dhallinyarada ahaa midkood, oo ku yidhi, U dhowow oo dil. Markaasuu dilay, isna wuu dhintay.
So David called one of the young men, and said, —Go near—fall upon him. And he smote him, that he died.
16 Daa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi, Dhiiggaagu madaxaaga ha saarnaado; waayo, afkaagaa kugu marag furay, oo waxaad tidhi, Rabbiga kiisa subkan ayaan dilay.
And David said unto him, Thy blood, be upon thine own head, —for, thine own mouth, hath testified against thee, saying, I myself, put to death the Anointed of Yahweh.
17 Markaasaa Daa'uud baroortan ugu baroortay Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataan,
Then chanted David this dirge, —over Saul and over Jonathan his son;
18 oo wuxuu ku amray inay carruurta dalka Yahuudah baraan gabayga qaansada; oo bal eeg, kaasu wuxuu ku qoran yahay kitaabka Yaashaar.
and he thought to teach the sons of Judah [the song of] the Bow, —lo! it is written in the Book of the Upright: —
19 Reer binu Israa'iilow, Ammaantiinnii waxaa lagu dilay meelihiinna sarsare! Bal eega kuwa xoogga leh siday u dhaceen!
The beauty of Israel! on thy high plumes—slain! How have fallen—the mighty!
20 Haddaba taas Gad ha ku sheegina, Oo jidadka Ashqeloonna ha ku caddaynina; Waaba intaasoo ay naagaha reer Falastiin ku farxaane, Waaba intaasoo ay buuryoqabyada naagahoodu ku guulaystaane.
Do not tell it in Gath, Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, —lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the Uncircumcised triumph.
21 Buuraha Gilbocow, Dharab iyo roob midna yaan laydinku arkin, beerihii qurbaanyadu ka bixi jireenna yaanay jirin, Waayo, kuwii xoogga lahaa gaashaankoodii ayaa halkaas lagu tuuray, Xataa gaashaankii Saa'uul oo ahaa sida mid aan saliid lagu subkin.
Ye mountains in Gilboa! Be there neither dew nor rain upon you, nor fields of offerings, —for, there, were cast away, the shields of the mighty, The shield of Saul, unanointed with oil.
22 Kuwii la laayay dhiiggoodii, iyo kuwii xoogga lahaa xaydhoodii, Yoonaataan qaansadiisii dib ugama ay soo noqon, Oo Saa'uul seeftiisiina madhnaan kuma ay soo noqon.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan ne’er drew back, —and, the sword of Saul, ne’er returned, empty.
23 Intay noolaayeen Saa'uul iyo Yoonaataan waxay ahaayeen kuwo la jecel yahay, oo macaan, Markay dhinteenna, lama kala geeyn, Gorgorrada way ka dheereeyeen, Libaaxyadana way ka xoog badnaayeen.
Saul and Jonathan, delightfully loving in their lives, even, in their death, were not divided, —Beyond eagles, were they swift, beyond lions, were they strong!
24 Gabdhaha reer binu Israa'iilow, Saa'uul u ooya, Kii dhar cas si raaxa leh idiin huwiyey, Oo dharkiinnana dahab ku sharraxay.
Ye daughters of Israel! For Saul, weep ye, —who clothed you in crimson, [decked] with lovely things, who hung ornaments of gold on your apparel!
25 Kuwii xoogga badnaa siday dagaalka ugu dhex dhaceen! Yoonaataan waxaa lagu dilay meelihiinna sarsare.
How have fallen the mighty, in the midst of the battle! Jonathan, on thy high places, slain!
26 Anigu daraaddaa baan u dhibtooday, walaalkay Yoonaataanow; Adigu aad baad iigu macaanayd, Oo jacaylkaad ii qabtay wuxuu ahaa mid yaab leh, Oo xataa caashaqa naagaha dhaafaya.
I am distressed for thee, my brother, Jonathan! Delightful to me, exceedingly, —Wonderful, was thy love to me, passing the love of women.
27 Bal eeg kuwii xoogga badnaa siday u dhaceen, Hubkii dagaalkuna siduu u hallaabay!
How have fallen the mighty, and perished the weapons of war!
