Samuu'Eel Labaad 21
1 Oo wakhtigii Daa'uud abaar baa dhacday intii saddex sannadood ah, oo sannadba sannadda ka dambayso, markaasaa Daa'uud Rabbiga baryay. Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Tanu waxay ku timid Saa'uul iyo reerkiisa dhiigga qaba, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu laayay reer Gibecoon.
Once during David's reign there was a famine for three years in a row, and David asked the Lord about it. The Lord replied, “It's because Saul and his family are guilty of murdering the Gibeonites.”
2 Markaasaa boqorkii reer Gibecoon u yeedhay, oo ku yidhi; (haddaba reer Gibecoon ma ay ahayn reer binu Israa'iil, laakiinse waxay ahaayeen dad ka hadhay reer Amor; oo reer binu Israa'iilna way u dhaarteen iyaga; oo Saa'uul baa wuxuu damcay inuu laayo iyaga qiiradii uu u qabay reer binu Israa'iil iyo reer Yahuudah aawadeed; )
David summoned the Gibeonites and spoke with them. The Gibeonites were not Israelites, but what was left of the Amorites. The Israelites had sworn an oath to them, but in his nationalistic passion for the Israelites and Judah, Saul had tried to wipe them out.
3 oo Daa'uud wuxuu reer Gibecoon ku yidhi, War maxaan idiin sameeyaa? Oo maxaan kafaaraggud u bixiyaa si aad dhaxalka Rabbiga ugu ducaysaan?
“What can I do for you?” David asked the Gibeonites. “How can I compensate you so that you may bless the Lord's people?”
4 Oo reer Gibecoonna waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Annaga iyo Saa'uul, iyo reerkiisa waxa na dhex yaallaa ma aha xaal ku eg lacag iyo dahab; oo annana dooni mayno inaannu reer binu Israa'iil nin ka dilno. Markaasuu ku yidhi, Haddaba wixii aad tidhaahdaan waan idiin samaynayaa.
“This isn't a question of us receiving payment in silver or gold from Saul or his family,” the Gibeonites replied. “In addition we don't have the right to have anyone in Israel put to death for us.” “I'll do whatever you ask,” David answered.
5 Iyana waxay boqorkii ku yidhaahdeen, Ninkii na baabbi'iyey, oo ku fikiray in nala laayo, oo aannan dhex degganaan waddanka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan,
They replied, “Regarding the man who destroyed us, who planned to prevent us having any place to live in the whole country of Israel,
6 ha naloo keeno toddoba nin oo wiilashiisii ah, oo Rabbiga ayaannu ugu deldelaynaa Gibecaahdii Saa'uul, kii Rabbigu doortay.
have seven of Saul's male descendants be handed over to us, and we will hang them in the presence of the Lord at Gibeon of Saul, the Lord's chosen one.” “I will hand them over to you,” said the king.
7 Laakiinse boqorkii wuu badbaadiyey Mefiiboshed, oo ahaa ina Yoonaataan ina Saa'uul, maxaa yeelay, dhaartii Rabbiga ayaa u dhexaysay Daa'uud iyo Yoonaataan ina Saa'uul.
However, the king spared Mephibosheth, son of Jonathan, son of Saul, because of the oath sworn before the Lord between David and Jonathan, son of Saul.
8 Laakiinse boqorkii wuxuu soo qabtay labadii wiil ee Risfaah ina Ayah, oo ay u dhashay Saa'uul, kuwaas oo ahaa Armonii iyo Mefiiboshed, iyo shantii wiil ee Miikaal ina Saa'uul, oo ay u dhashay Cadrii'eel ina Barsillay kii reer Mexolaad;
The king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she had borne to Saul, and the five sons of Merab, the daughter of Saul, whom she had borne to Adriel, son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 oo wuxuu u gacangeliyey reer Gibecoon, oo buurtay ku deldeleen Rabbiga hortiisa, oo toddobadoodiiba way wada dhinteen; oo waxaana la dilay xilligii beergooyska maalmaha ugu horreeya, marka shaciirka la gooyo.
He handed them over to the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the hill in the presence of the Lord. All seven of them died at the same time, executed at the beginning of the barley harvest.
10 Markaasaa Risfaah oo ahayd ina Ayah ayaa soo qaadatay dhar joonyad ah oo waxay ku goglatay dhagaxa, halkaasna waxay joogtay wakhtigii beergooyska iyo ilaa roob cirka ka soo daatay; oo maalintiina uma ay oggolaan in haadka hawadu ku dego, habeenkiina waxay ka dhawri jirtay dugaagga duurka.
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took some sackcloth and spread it out for herself on a rock. From the beginning of the harvest until the time the rains came and poured down on the bodies, she kept the birds away from them during the day and the wild animals at night.
11 Oo waxaa Daa'uud loo soo sheegay wixii ay samaysay Risfaah ina Ayah oo ahayd Saa'uul naagtiisii addoonta ahayd.
When David heard what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, Saul's concubine of Saul had done,
12 Oo Daa'uud intuu tegey ayuu lafihii Saa'uul iyo lafihii wiilkiisii Yoonaataan ka soo qaaday dadkii reer Yaabeesh Gilecaad oo ka xaday jidkii Beytshaan, kaasoo ah meeshii ay reer Falastiin ku deldeleen iyaga, maalintii ay reer Falastiin Saa'uul ku dileen Gilboca,
he retrieved the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had taken them from the public square of Beth-shan where the Philistines had hung the bodies after they had killed Saul at Gilboa.
13 oo halkaasuu ka soo qaaday lafihii Saa'uul iyo lafihii wiilkiisii Yoonaataan; oo waxaa la soo ururiyey kuwii la deldelay lafahoodii.
David had the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan brought back, and also had the bones of those who had been hanged gathered up.
14 Oo lafihii Saa'uul iyo lafihii wiilkiisii Yoonaataan waxaa lagu aasay dalka reer Benyaamiin meel ku taal oo la yidhaahdo Seelac, oo waxaa la geliyey qabrigii aabbihiis Qiish; oo waxaa la sameeyey kulli wixii boqorku ku amray oo dhan. Oo taas dabadeedna Ilaah baa dalkii loo baryay.
They buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan at Zela in the land of Benjamin, in the tomb of Saul's father Kish. Once they finished doing everything the king had ordered, God answered their prayers to end the famine in the land.
15 Oo haddana reer Falastiin waxay la dirireen reer binu Israa'iil, markaasaa Daa'uud dhaadhacay isaga iyo addoommadiisii la socdayba, oo waxay la dirireen reer Falastiin; laakiinse Daa'uud wuu taag gabay.
There was war once more between the Philistines and Israel. David went down with his men to fight the Philistines, and he got worn out.
16 Oo Yiishbii Benob, oo ka mid ahaa wiilashii Rafaa, oo miisaanka warankiisu ahaa saddex boqol oo sheqel oo naxaas ah, oo seef cusubuna dhexday ugu xidhnayd, ayaa damcay inuu Daa'uud dilo.
Ishbi-benob, one of the descendants of Rapha, whose bronze spear weighed three hundred shekels, and who was carrying a new sword, said he was going to kill David.
17 Laakiinse Daa'uud waxaa caawiyey Abiishay oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay, oo intuu kii reer Falastiin wax ku dhuftay ayuu dilay. Markaasaa Daa'uud raggiisii dhaar u mareen, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Adigu mar dambe dagaal noola bixi maysid, yaadan laambadda reer binu Israa'iil bakhtiine.
But Abishai, son of Zeruiah, came to his rescue, attacked the Philistine, and killed him. Then David's men swore to him, “Don't ever go out with us to battle again, so that the Israel's light isn't snuffed out!”
18 Oo taas dabadeed waxay noqotay in reer Falastiin haddana Goob lagula diriray, oo Sibbekay oo reer Xushaad ahaa wuxuu dilay Saf oo ahaa mid ka mid ah wiilashii Rafaa.
Some time after this there was another battle with the Philistines at Gob. But then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, one of the descendants of Repha.
19 Oo haddana reer Falastiin waxaa lagula diriray Goob; oo Elxaanaan ina Yacaray Oregiim oo reer Beytlaxam ahaa wuxuu dilay Goli'ad oo reer Gad ahaa, oo samayda warankiisuna waxay le'ekayd dharsameeyaha looxiisa.
In another battle with the Philistines at Gob, Elhanan, son of Jair, from Bethlehem, killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite. The shaft of his spear was as thick as a weaver's rod.
20 Oo haddana waxaa dagaal ka dhacay Gad, halkaasna waxaa joogay nin aad u dheer, oo gacmahana mid kasta wuxuu ku lahaa lix farood, cagahana mid kasta wuxuu ku lahaa lix farood, oo farihiisuna kulligood waxay ahaayeen afar iyo labaatan, oo isna wuxuu u dhashay Rafaa.
In yet another battle at Gath, there was a gigantic man, who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, making twenty-four all. He too was descended from the giants.
21 Oo markuu reer binu Israa'iil caayay, waxaa isagii dilay Yoonaataan oo uu Daa'uud walaalkiisii Shimcii ahaa dhalay.
But when he insulted Israel, Jonathan, son of Shimea, David's brother, killed him.
22 Afartaasu waxay Rafaa ugu dhasheen Gad; oo waxay ku dhinteen Daa'uud gacantiisii, iyo gacantii addoommadiisa.
These four were the descendants of the giants in Gath, but they were all killed by David and his men.
