Samuu'Eel Labaad 17

1 Oo weliba Axiitofel wuxuu Absaaloom ku yidhi, I daa aan laba iyo toban kun oo nin doortee oo aan caawa Daa'uud eryadee,

Then Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me take out twelve thousand men and this very night I will go after David:

2 oo waxaan u imanayaa intuu daallan yahay oo gacmihiisu taag daranyihiin, markaasaan cabsiinayaa, oo dadka isaga la jira oo dhammuna way carari doonaan. Markaasaan dili doonaa boqorka oo keliya.

And I will come up with him when he is tired and feeble, and make him full of fear: and all the people with him will go in flight; and I will make an attack on the king only:

3 Oo dadka oo dhanna waan kuu soo celin doonaa, oo ninka aad doonaysaa waa sidii iyadoo ay dhammaan soo wada noqdeen; markaasay dadka oo dhammu nabad ku noolaan doonaan.

And I will make all the people come back to you as a bride comes back to her husband: it is the life of only one man you are going after; so all the people will be at peace.

4 Oo hadalkaasuna aad buu uga farxiyey Absaaloom iyo odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.

And the saying was pleasing to Absalom and to the responsible men of Israel.

5 Markaasaa Absaaloom wuxuu yidhi, Bal haddana iigu yeedh Xuushay kii reer Arkii, oo bal aan maqalno wuxuu isagu leeyahay.

Then Absalom said, Now send for Hushai the Archite, and let us give ear to what he has to say.

6 Markaasaa Xuushay u yimid Absaaloom, oo Absaaloomna intuu la hadlay ayuu ku yidhi, Axiitofel sidan buu ku hadlay. Haddaba siduu nagu yidhi ma yeelnaa? Haddii kale, adigu hadal.

And when Hushai came, Absalom said to him, This is what Ahithophel has said: are we to do as he says? if not, what is your suggestion?

7 Kolkaasaa Xuushay wuxuu Absaaloom ku yidhi, Axiitofel talada uu markan ku taliyey ma fiicna.

And Hushai said to Absalom, Ahithophel's idea is not a good one at this time.

8 Oo weliba Xuushay wuxuu yidhi oo kale, Waad taqaannaa aabbahaa iyo raggiisaba inay rag xoog leh yihiin, iyo in maankoodu u kulul yahay sidii orso ilmaheedii duurka laga xaday, oo aabbahaana waa nin dagaalyahan ah, oo dadkana meel la baryi maayo.

Hushai said further, You have knowledge of your father and his men, that they are men of war, and that their feelings are bitter, like those of a bear in the field whose young ones have been taken from her: and your father is a man of war, and will not take his night's rest with the people;

9 Oo bal eeg, hadda wuxuu ku dhuumanayaa bohol, ama meel kale; oo markii qaarkood la dilo marka hore, ku alla kii maqla ayaa odhan doona, Ciidammadii Absaaloom raacay waa la laayay.

But he will certainly have taken cover now in some hole or secret place; and if some of our people, at the first attack, are overcome, then any hearing of it will say, There is destruction among the people who are on Absalom's side.

10 Oo xataa kan xoog badan, ee qalbigiisu yahay sida qalbiga libaaxa, wuu dhalaali doonaa dhammaantiis; waayo, reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu way og yihiin in aabbahaa yahay nin xoog badan, iyo in kuwa isaga la jira ay yihiin rag daran.

Then even the strongest, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will become like water; for all Israel is conscious that your father is a man of war, and those who are with him are strong and without fear.

11 Laakiinse anigu waxaan ku talinayaa in reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu adiga kuu soo shiraan oo ay ka yimaadaan tan iyo Daan iyo ilaa Bi'ir Shebac, oo ay u soo bataan sida cammuudda badda agteeda taal; oo aad adiga qudhaadu dagaalka gashid.

But my suggestion is that all Israel, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, comes together to you, a great army like the sands of the sea in number; and that you yourself go out among them.

12 Sidaasaynu isaga ugu iman doonnaa meesha laga helo, oo waxaynu ugu soo degi doonnaa sida dharabku dhulka ugu soo dego oo kale; oo isaga iyo dadka la socda oo dhanba xataa mid qudha ka reebi mayno.

Then we will come on him in some place, wherever he may be, falling on him as the dew comes on the earth: and of him and all the men who are with him not one will get away with his life.

13 Oo weliba hadduu magaalo galo, markaasay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu xadhko soo qaadan doonaan, oo waxaynu magaalada u jiidaynaa xagga webiga oo waan ku ridaynaa, ilaa halkaas laga waayo xataa dhagax yar.

And if he has gone into some town, then let all Israel take strong cords to that town, and we will have it pulled into the valley, till not one small stone is to be seen there.

14 Markaasaa Absaaloom iyo raggii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay yidhaahdeen, Xuushay kii reer Arkii taladiisu way ka wanaagsan tahay taladii Axiitofel. Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu ka dhigay in laga adkaado taladii wanaagsanayd oo Axiitofel, si Rabbigu Absaaloom shar ugu soo dejiyo.

Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, Hushai's suggestion is better than that of Ahithophel. For it was the purpose of the Lord to make the wise designs of Ahithophel without effect, so that the Lord might send evil on Absalom.

15 Markaasaa Xuushay wuxuu ku yidhi wadaaddadii ahaa Saadooq iyo Aabyaataar, Axiitofel saas iyo saas buu ula taliyey Absaaloom iyo odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil, oo anna saas iyo saas baan ula taliyey.

Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, This is the suggestion made by Ahithophel to Absalom and the responsible men of Israel, and this is what I said to them.

16 Sidaas daraaddeed haddiiba u cid dira, oo Daa'uud u war geeya, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Caawa ha ku baryin meelaha loogu gudbo cidlada, laakiinse si alla si aad yeeshaba ka gudub; yaan adiga iyo dadka kula socda oo dhanba la wada liqine, boqorow.

So now send the news quickly to David, and say, Do not take your night's rest by the way across the river to the waste land, but be certain to go over; or the king and all the people with him will come to destruction.

17 Haddaba Yoonaataan iyo Axiimacas ma ay karin inay magaalada bayaan u soo galaan, sidaas daraaddeed waxay joogeen Ceyn Rogeel, oo gabadh addoon ah ayaa intay u tagtay wax u sheegtay; oo iyana intay tageen ayay boqor Daa'uud u soo warrameen.

Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were waiting by En-rogel; and a servant-girl went from time to time and gave them news and they went with the news to King David, for it was not wise for them to let themselves be seen coming into the town.

18 Laakiinse wiil baa arkay iyagii, oo wuxuu u soo sheegay Absaaloom, oo iyana labadoodiiba haddiiba way carareen, oo waxay yimaadeen nin Baxuuriim deggan gurigiis oo barxadda ceel ku leh; oo iyana halkaasay ku dhaadhaceen.

But a boy saw them, and gave word of it to Absalom: so the two of them went away quickly, and came to the house of a man in Bahurim who had a water-hole in his garden, and they went down into it.

19 Oo naagtiina ceelka afkiisii bay wax ku gogoshay, oo waxay ku dul firdhisay hadhuudh la tumay; oo waxbana lagama ogaan.

And a woman put a cover over the hole, and put crushed grain on top of it, and no one had any knowledge of it.

20 Oo addoommadii Absaaloom naagtii bay gurigii ugu yimaadeen; oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Awaye Axiimacas iyo Yoonaataan? Markaasaa naagtii waxay ku tidhi, War waxay ka gudbeen togga biyaha. Oo iyana markay doondooneen oo ay heli waayeen ayay ku noqdeen Yeruusaalem.

And Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house and said, Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said to them, They have gone from here to the stream. And after searching for them, and seeing nothing of them, they went back to Jerusalem.

21 Oo markay tageen dabadeed ayay ceelkii ka soo baxeen, oo ay tageen, oo ay Boqor Daa'uud u soo warrameen; oo waxay Daa'uud ku yidhaahdeen, War ka kaca, oo haddiiba biyaha gudba, waayo, Axiitofel sidaasuu talo kaa gees ah ugu taliyey.

Then after the servants had gone away, they came up out of the water-hole and went to give King David the news; and they said, Get up and go quickly over the water, for such and such are Ahithophel's designs against you.

22 Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo dadkii isaga la jiray oo dhammu kaceen, oo waxay ka gudbeen Webi Urdun; oo markii waagii baryay ma jirin mid iyagii ah oo aan Webi Urdun ka gudbin.

So David and all the people who were with him went up over Jordan: when dawn came, every one of them had gone over Jordan.

23 Oo Axiitofelna markuu arkay inaan taladiisii la raacin ayuu dameerkii kooraystay, oo magaaladiisuu tegey, oo intuu reerkiisii la dardaarmay, ayuu isdeldelay; wuuna dhintay, oo waxaa lagu aasay qabrigii aabbihiis.

Now when Ahithophel saw that his suggestion was not acted on, he got his ass ready, and went back to his house, to the town where he came from, and having put his house in order, he put himself to death by hanging; so he came to his end and was put in the resting-place of his father.

24 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yimid Maxanayim. Absaaloomna wuxuu ka soo gudbay Webi Urdun, isagoo wata raggii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.

And David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom, with all the men of Israel, went over Jordan.

25 Oo Absaaloomna wuxuu ciidankii madax uga dhigay Camaasaa, oo Yoo'aab wuu ka beddelay. Haddaba Camaasaa waxaa dhalay nin reer binu Israa'iil ah oo magiciisa la odhan jiray Yitraa, oo wuxuu qabay Abiigayil oo ay Naaxaash dhashay, oo waxay la dhalatay Seruuyaah oo ahayd Yoo'aab hooyadiis.

And Absalom put Amasa at the head of the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra the Ishmaelite, who had been the lover of Abigail, the daughter of Jesse, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

26 Markaasaa Absaaloom iyo reer binu Israa'iil waxay soo degeen dalkii Gilecaad.

And Israel and Absalom put up their tents in the land of Gilead.

27 Markii Daa'uud yimid Maxanayim waxaa u yimid Shobii oo ahaa ina Naaxaash ee ahaa reer Cammoonkii degganaa Rabbaah, iyo Maakiir oo ahaa ina Cammii'eel ee ahaa reer Loo Debaar, iyo Barsillay oo ahaa reer Gilecaadkii degganaa Rogeliim,

Now when David had come to Mahanaim, Shobi, the son of Nahash of Rabbah, the Ammonite, and Machir, the son of Ammiel of Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,

28 oo waxay u keeneen gogol, iyo fijaanno, iyo weelal dhoobo ah, iyo sarreen, iyo shaciir, iyo bur, iyo salool, iyo atar, iyo misir, iyo digir,

Came with beds and basins and pots, and grain and meal, and all sorts of dry foods,

29 iyo malab, iyo subag, iyo ido, iyo faar lo'aad, oo waxay waxaas oo dhan u keeneen Daa'uud iyo dadkii la socday inay cunaan, waayo, waxay isyidhaahdeen, Dadku cidladay ku gaajoodeen, oo ku daaleen, oo ku harraadeen.

And honey and butter and sheep and milk-cheeses, for David and his people: for they said, This people is in the waste land, needing food and drink and rest.
