Samuu'Eel Labaad 15
1 Oo taas dabadeedna Absaaloom ayaa diyaarsaday gaadhifardood iyo fardo, iyo konton nin oo hortiisa orodda.
Sometime later, Absalom got himself a chariot with horses, and fifty men as bodyguards to run ahead of him.
2 Markaasaa Absaaloom aroortii kacay, oo ag istaagay jidkii iridda, oo markuu nin dacwo qaba boqorka xukun ugu imanayo ayuu Absaaloom u yeedhi jiray, oo wuxuu ku odhan jiray, Magaaladee baad ka timid? Oo isna wuxuu odhan jiray, Anoo addoonkaaga ah waxaan ka mid ahay qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil midkood.
He used to get up early and stand by the main road that led to the city gate. When people brought a case to the king for his decision, Absalom would call out and ask them, “What town are you from?” If they replied, “Your servant is from this particular tribe of Israel,”
3 Markaasaa Absaaloom wuxuu ku odhan jiray, Xaalalkaagu waa wanaagsan yihiin, waana qumman yihiin; laakiinse nin boqorku amray oo ku maqlayaa ma jiro.
Absalom would tell them, “Look, you're in the right and you've got a good case. It's such a shame there's no one from the king to hear you.”
4 Oo Absaaloom wuxuu kaloo yidhi, Way, bal maa aniga dalka xaakin la iiga dhigo, si nin alla ninkii dacwo ama muraad lihi iigu yimaado oo aan caddaalad ugu xukumo!
Then he would say, “If only there was someone to appoint me as judge for the country. Then everyone could come to me with their case or complaint, and I would give them justice.”
5 Oo waxay ahaatay in ninkii inuu sujuudo ugu soo dhowaadaba, uu Absaaloom intuu gacanta soo fidiyo oo qabto dhunkan jiray.
When anyone came to bow down before him, Absalom would stop them by reaching out his hand, taking hold of him, and kissing him.
6 Oo reer binu Israa'iil kii boqorka xukun ugu yimid oo dhan Absaaloom sidaasuu ku samayn jiray dhammaantood; oo sidaasuu Absaaloom qalbiga uga xaday dadkii reer binu Israa'iil.
This is how Absalom treated all the Israelites who came to the king for his judgment. So he captured the loyalty of the men of Israel.
7 Oo markay afartan sannadood dhammaadeen ayaa Absaaloom boqorkii ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, i sii daa aan Xebroon tagee, waayo, waxaan doonayaa inaan halkaas ku bixiyo nidar aan Rabbiga u galay.
Four years later Absalom asked the king, “Please let me go to Hebron to fulfill a promise I made to the Lord.
8 Waayo, anoo addoonkaaga ah nidar baan galay intii aan joogay Geshuur oo ku taal Suuriya, oo waxaan idhi, Haddii Rabbigu Yeruusaalem mar kale igu celiyo, markaasaan Rabbiga allabari u bixin doonaa.
For I, your servant, made this promise while living at Geshur in Aram, saying: ‘If the Lord does bring me back to Jerusalem, I will worship the Lord in Hebron.’”
9 Boqorkiina wuxuu ku yidhi, Nabad ku tag. Kolkaasuu kacay oo tegey Xebroon.
“Go in peace,” said the king. So Absalom went to Hebron.
10 Laakiinse Absaaloom jaajusiin buu u diray qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Markaad buunka dhawaaqiisa maqashaan, waxaad tidhaahdaan, Absaaloom waa ku boqramay Xebroon.
Then Absalom sent his accomplices among all the tribes of Israel, saying, “When you hear the sound of the ram's horn, you shout, ‘Absalom is king at Hebron!’”
11 Oo Absaaloomna Yeruusaalem waxaa ka raacay laba boqol oo nin, oo la marti qaaday, oo waxay tageen iyagoo xog la', oo aan waxba ogayn.
Two hundred men from Jerusalem went with Absalom. They had been invited and went in all innocence, because they didn't know anything about what was planned.
12 Oo Absaaloomna wuxuu magaaladii Giloh ahayd ugu cid dirsaday Axiitofel kii reer Giloh, oo ahaa Daa'uud taliyihiisa, intuu allabarigii bixinayay. Oo sirqoolkiina aad buu u xoog badnaa; waayo, dadkii Absaaloom la jiray way soo kordhayeen had iyo goorba.
While Absalom was offering sacrifices, he sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's advisor, asking him to come from Giloh, the town where he lived. The conspiracy grew stronger, and Absalom's followers went on increasing.
13 Oo markaasaa Daa'uud waxaa u yimid wargeeye; isagoo leh, Dadkii reer binu Israa'iil qalbigoodii wuxuu raacay Absaaloom.
A messenger came to tell David, “Absalom has the loyalty of the men of Israel.”
14 Daa'uudna wuxuu addoommadiisii Yeruusaalem la joogay oo dhan ku yidhi, War ina kiciya aynu cararnee; haddii kalese midkeenna Absaaloom ka baxsan maayo; haddaba dhaqsada oo baxa, waaba intaasoo uu haddiiba ina soo qabtaaye, oo belaayo inagu ridaaye, oo uu magaaladana seef ku laayaaye!
David said to all the officials with him in Jerusalem, “Quick! Let's go! Otherwise we won't be able to get away from Absalom! We must leave immediately, or he will soon catch up with us, attack us, and kill the people here in the city.”
15 Markaasaa boqorka addoommadiisii boqorkii ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, annagoo ah addoommadaadu diyaar baannu u nahay inaannu samayno wax kasta oo aad doorato, boqorow, sayidkayagiiyow.
“Whatever Your Majesty decides, we'll do what you want,” the king's servants replied.
16 Markaasaa boqorkii baxay, isagoo reerkiisii oo dhammu daba socdaan. Oo boqorkii toban naagood oo addoommo ahaa ayuu uga tegey inay gurigii dhawraan.
The king set off with his whole household following him, but he left behind ten concubines to look after the palace.
17 Boqorkiina wuu baxay, oo dadkii oo dhammuna isagay daba socdeen; oo meel fog bay joogsadeen.
The king left with all his soldiers following him. He stopped at the last house,
18 Oo addoommadiisii oo dhammuna way dhinac mareen, iyaga iyo reer Kereetiim oo dhan, iyo reer Feleetii oo dhan, iyo reer Gad oo dhan, kuwaasoo ahaa lix boqol oo nin oo Gad ka soo raacday, dhammaantood boqorkii way hor mareen.
and all his men marched past him, including all the Cherethites and Pelethites, and six hundred Gittites who had come with him from Gath.
19 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi Itay oo ahaa reer Gad, War adiguna maxaad noola socotaa? Noqo, oo boqorka la joog; waayo, adigu waxaad tahay qariib, iyo weliba mid waddankiisii laga soo masaafuriyey.
The king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why are you coming with us too? Go back and stay with the new king, because you are a foreigner and an exile a long way from home.
20 Waxaad timid shalayto, haddaba sidee baan maanta noola kaa warwareejiyaa? Maxaa yeelay, anigu waxaan tegayaa meel alla meeshaan doonayoba, haddaba naga noqo, oo walaalahaana dib u celi; oo naxariis iyo runuba ha kula jireen.
You only just got here, so why should I make you wander around with us now when I don't even know where I am going? Go back and take your men with you. May the Lord show you kindness and faithfulness.”
21 Markaasaa Itay wuxuu boqorkii ugu jawaabay, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga noloshiisa, iyo noloshaada, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, sida runtaa meel alla meeshii aad joogtid, ama aan noolaado ama aan dhintee, anoo addoonkaaga ahuna halkaasaan joogayaa.
But Ittai answered the king, “As the Lord lives, and as Your Majesty lives, wherever Your Majesty may be, whether dead or alive, that's where your servant will be!”
22 Kolkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Itay ku yidhi, Haddaba tag oo gudub. Markaasaa Itay kii reer Gadna gudbay, isagii iyo raggiisii oo dhan, iyo yaryarkii la socday oo dhan.
“Go ahead, march on!” David replied. Ittai the Gittite marched past with all his men and all the families that were with him.
23 Oo waddankii oo dhanna waxaa lagaga ooyay cod weyn, oo dadkii oo dhammuna webigii way ka gudbeen; oo boqorka qudhiisii wuu ka gudbay toggii Qidroon, oo dadkii oo dhammuna waxay u gudbeen xagga cidlada.
All the people in the countryside were crying aloud as everyone with David passed by. They crossed the Kidron Valley with the king on the way toward the wilderness.
24 Oo bal eeg, Saadooqna waa yimid, isagoo ay la socdaan reer Laawi oo dhan, oo sida sanduuqii axdiga Ilaah, markaasay sanduuqii Ilaah dhigeen, oo Aabyaataarna kor buu tegey, ilaa dadkii oo dhammu ay magaaladii ka soo gudbeen.
Zadok was there too, and all the Levites were with him, carrying the Ark of God's Agreement. They set down the Ark of God, and Abiathar offered sacrifices until everyone had left the city.
25 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Saadooq ku yidhi, Sanduuqa Ilaah qaad oo magaaladii ku celi. Hadduu Rabbigu raalli iga yahay, mar kaluu i soo celin doonaa, oo wuu i tusi doonaa isaga iyo rugta Ilaahba.
Then the king told Zadok, “Take the Ark of God back to the city. If I find the Lord approves of me, he will bring me back and let me see both the Ark and his Tent again.
26 Laakiinse hadduu igu yidhaahdo, Kuguma faraxsani; bal eeg, haddaba waa i kane, ha igu sameeyo sidii isaga la wanaagsan.
But if he says, ‘I'm not happy with you,’ then here I stand. Let him do to me whatever he thinks best.”
27 Oo haddana boqorkii wuxuu wadaadkii Saadooq ahaa ku yidhi, Sow adigu wax arke ma tihid? Haddaba magaaladii ku nabad noqda, idinka iyo labadiinna wiil ee idinla jirta, kuwaas oo ah wiilkaaga Axiimacas iyo Yoonaataan oo ah ina Aabyaataar.
The king also told Zadok the priest, “You understand the situation, don't you? Go back to the city safely with your son Ahimaaz, and also Jonathan, son of Abiathar. You and Abiathar take both of your sons back with you.
28 Oo anna waxaan sii joogayaa meesha mareenka ah ee cidlada loogu sii gudbo, jeeruu war iiga kiin yimaado.
I'll wait at the fords of the wilderness until I hear from you.”
29 Sidaas daraaddeed Saadooq iyo Aabyaataar sanduuqii Ilaah bay qaadeen, waxayna mar kale ku celiyeen Yeruusaalem, oo iyana halkaasay iska sii joogeen.
Zadok and Abiathar took the Ark of God back to Jerusalem and remained there.
30 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu fuulay jiirtii Buur Saytuun oo intuu sii socdayna wuu ooyayay, isagoo hagoogan, oo caga cad, oo dadkii la jiray oo dhammuna midkood waluba wuu hagoogtay, oo kor bay tageen, iyagoo ooyaya intay kor u sii socdeen.
David went on his way up the Mount of Olives, weeping as he did so. He had his head covered, and walked barefoot. All the people with him covered their heads, weeping as they went along.
31 Oo Daa'uud waxaa loo soo sheegay inuu Axiitofelna Absaaloom kula jiro shirqoolkii. Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, waan ku baryayaaye, Axiitofel taladiisa nacasnimo u beddel.
David was told, “Ahithophel is one of the people conspiring with Absalom.” So David prayed, “Lord, please make Ahithophel's advice worthless.”
32 Oo markii Daa'uud yimid jiirta dusheedii, meeshii Ilaah lagu caabudi jiray, waxaa u yimid Xuushay kii reer Arkii oo jubbaddiisii jeexjeexay, oo madaxana ciid ku shubtay.
When David arrived at the top of the Mount of Olives, where people worshiped God, there to meet him was Hushai the Archite, with his robe torn and with dust on his head.
33 Markaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi, Haddaad i raacdo oo aad ila gudubto, culays baad igu noqonaysaa;
David told him, “If you come with me, you'll only be a burden to me,
34 laakiinse haddaad magaaladii ku noqotid, oo aad Absaaloom ku tidhaahdid, Boqorow, addoonkaagii baan noqonayaa; oo sidaan hore aabbahaa addoonka ugu ahaan jiray, ayaan haddana adiga addoon kuugu ahaanayaa; markaas waxaad iiga adkaanaysaa talada Axiitofel.
but if you go back to the city and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, Your Majesty! Formerly I worked for your father, but now I'll work for you,’ then you can block Ahithophel's advice for me.
35 Oo halkaasna sow kulama joogaan wadaaddadii ahaa Saadooq iyo Aabyaataar? Sidaas daraaddeed wax alla wixii aad guriga boqorka ka maqashoba, waxaad u soo sheegtaa wadaaddadii ahaa Saadooq iyo Aabyaataar.
Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, will be there too. Tell them everything you hear in the king's palace.
36 Oo iyana waxay halkaas ku haystaan labadoodii wiil oo ahaa Axiimacas ina Saadooq, iyo Yoonaataan ina Aabyaataar; oo iyaga waxaad iigu soo dhiibtaan wax alla wixii aad maqashaanba.
Their two sons, Ahimaaz and Jonathan, are there with them. Send them to me so they can tell me everything you hear.”
37 Sidaas daraaddeed Xuushay oo ahaa Daa'uud saaxiibkiis magaaladii buu soo galay; oo Absaaloomna Yeruusaalem buu soo galay.
David's friend Hushai arrived back in Jerusalem at the same time Absalom was entering the city.
