< Samuu'Eel Labaad 23 >
1 Haddaba erayadanu waa kuwii ugu dambeeyey oo Daa'uud. Daa'uud ina Yesay wuxuu leeyahay, Ninkii kor loo qaadayna wuxuu leeyahay, Kaasoo ah kii Ilaaha Yacquub subkay, Ee ugu sabuur macaan reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan:
These are David's last words. The divine message of David son of Jesse, the divine message of the man made great by God, the one anointed by the God of Jacob, the wonderful psalm-writer of Israel:
2 Rabbiga ruuxiisii baa iga dhex hadlay, Oo eraygiisiina carrabkayguu saarnaa.
“The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me; my tongue gave his message.
3 Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil baa yidhi, Oo Dhagaxii weynaa ee reer binu Israa'iil ayaa ila hadlay, isagoo leh, Waxaa jiri doona mid dadka si xaq ah ugu taliya, Oo Ilaah cabsidiisa wax ku xukuma,
Israel's God spoke; Israel's Rock told me, ‘He who rules the people justly, he who rules respecting God,
4 Kaasu wuxuu ahaan doonaa sida iftiinka subaxdii, marka qorraxdu soo baxdo, Iyo sida aroor aan cadar ahayn; Markuu doog jilicsanu dhulka ka soo baxo, Oo uu bayaan u dhalaalayo roobka dabadiis.
is like the light of the morning sunrise on a cloudless dawn; like the shining of raindrops on the new grass growing from the earth.’
5 Sida runta ah reerkaygu xagga Ilaah saas kuma aha; Laakiinse axdi aan weligiis dhammaanayn ayuu ila dhigtay, Oo wax kastaba wuu hagaajiyey, wuuna adkeeyey; Oo in kastoo uusan soo bixin weliba waa badbaadadayda oo dhan iyo doonistayda oo dhanba.
Isn't this how my family is with God? For he has made an everlasting agreement with me, set out in detail and with every part guaranteed. He will make sure to save me and to give me all I want.
6 Laakiinse kuwa waxmatarayaasha ah dhammaantood waxay noqonayaan sidii qodxanta layska tuuro, Waayo, iyaga gacanta laguma qaadi karo;
But evil people are like thorns to be thrown aside; they can't be held in the hand.
7 Laakiinse ninkii iyaga taabta Waa in hub looga dhigaa bir iyo waran samaydiisa; Oo iyana dhammaantood meeshoodaa lagu gubi doonaa.
The only way to deal with them is to use an iron tool or the handle of a spear. They are completely burned up right where they are.”
8 Kuwanu waa magacyadii nimankii xoogga badnaa oo Daa'uud haystay: Yoshebbashebed oo ahaa reer Taxkemon, oo saraakiisha madax u ahaa, kaasoo ahaa Cadiinoo kii reer Cesen, oo warankiisa u qaaday siddeedda boqol oo isku mar qudha dilay.
These are the names of the leading warriors who supported David: Josheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite, leader of the Three. Using his spear, he once killed eight hundred men in a single battle.
9 Oo kaas dabadiisna waxaa jiray Elecaasaar ina Dooday, oo ahaa reer Axoo'ax, oo kaasu wuxuu ahaa saddexdii nin oo Daa'uud la jirtay midkood, markay caayeen reer Falastiin oo halkaas isugu urursaday inay la diriraan, oo ay dadkii reer binu Israa'iilna mar hore sii tageen.
After him came Eleazar, son of Dodai, the Ahohite, one of the Three leading warriors. He was with David when they defied the Philistines gathered for battle at Pas-dammin. The Israelites retreated,
10 Wuu kacay, oo laayay reer Falastiin ilaa ay gacantii daashay, oo gacantii seeftii ku dhegtay; oo Rabbiguna maalintaas aad buu u guuleeyey, markaasaa dadkiina u soo noqdeen inay wax dhacaan oo keliya.
but Eleazar took his stand and went on killing Philistines until his hand stuck to his sword. The Lord saved them by granting them a great victory. The Israelite army did return, but only to strip the dead.
11 Oo isaga dabadiisna waxaa jiray Shammaah oo ahaa ina Agee oo qoladiisuna ahayd reer Haraarii. Oo reer Falastiinna waxay isu soo wada urursadeen inay soo dhacaan meel misir ka buuxo, oo dadkiina waxay ka carareen reer Falastiin.
After him came Shammah, son of Agee, the Hararite. When the Philistines gathered at Lehi, in a field full of lentils, the Israelite army ran away from them,
12 Laakiinse isagu beertuu isdhex taagay oo daafacay, wuuna laayay reer Falastiin; oo Rabbiguna aad buu u guuleeyey.
but Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field, defending it and killing the Philistines. The Lord gave them a great victory.
13 Oo soddonkii madaxda ahaa saddex ka mid ah ayaa tegey, oo Daa'uud ugu yimid godkii Cadullaam xilligii beergooyska; oo colkii reer Falastiinna waxay soo degeen dooxadii Refaa'iim.
At harvest time, the Three, who were part of the Thirty leading warriors, went down to meet David when he was at the cave of Adullam. The Philistine army was camped in the valley of Rephaim.
14 Oo markaas Daa'uud wuxuu ku jiray dhufayska, oo ciidankii reer Falastiin xeradooduna waxay ahayd Beytlaxam.
At the time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was in Bethlehem.
15 Oo Daa'uud intuu biyo u xiisooday ayuu yidhi, Waxaan jeclaan lahaa in biyo layga siiyo ceelka Beytlaxam ee iridda ku ag yaal!
David was feeling really thirsty, and he said, “If only someone could bring me a drink of water from the well beside the entrance gate to Bethlehem!”
16 Markaasaa saddexdii nin ee xoogga badnaa ayaa dhex maray ciidankii reer Falastiin, oo waxay biyo ka soo dhaamiyeen ceelkii Beytlaxam ee iridda ku ag yiil, oo intay soo qaadeen ayay Daa'uud u keeneen, laakiinse wuu diiday inuu ka cabbo biyahaas, Rabbiguuse u daadshay.
The Three leading warriors broke through the Philistine defenses, took some water from the well at Bethelehem's gate, and brought it back to David. But David refused to drink it, and poured it out as an offering to the Lord.
17 Oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ha iga fogaato inaan saas yeelo; ma waxaan cabbaa dhiiggii raggii naftooda biimeeyey? Sidaas daraaddeed wuu diiday inuu cabbo. Oo saddexdii nin oo xoogga badnaana saasay yeeleen.
“Lord, never let me do this!” he said. “Isn't it like drinking the blood of these men who risked their lives?” So he did not drink it. This is just some of the things the Three leading warriors did.
18 Oo saddexdoodana waxaa madax u ahaa Abiishay oo ahaa Yoo'aab walaalkiis, oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay. Oo kaasu wuxuu waran u qaatay saddex boqol oo nin, wuuna wada laayay, saddexdiina magac buu ku lahaa.
Abishai, Joab's brother, was leader of the second Three. Using his spear, he once killed 300 men, and became famous among the Three.
19 Isagu miyaanu saddexdooda ugu ciso badnayn? Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa looga dhigay sirkaal, habase yeeshee saddexdii hore ma uu gaadhin.
He was the most highly regarded of the Three and was their commander, though he was not one of the first Three.
20 Oo Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, oo uu dhalay nin xoog weyn oo reer Qabse'eel ahu, kaasoo sameeyey falimo waaweyn, wuxuu dilay labadii wiil oo Arii'eel kii reer Moo'aab, oo haddana wuu tegey oo libaax buu god ku dhex dilay wakhtiga barafka,
Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, a strong warrior from Kabzeel, did many amazing things. He killed two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went after a lion into a pit in the snow and killed it.
21 oo wuxuu kaloo dilay nin Masri ah oo dheer, oo Masriguna wuxuu gacanta ku haystay waran, laakiinse isagu wuxuu ula tegey ul, oo warankii ka dhufsaday gacantii Masriga, oo isagii ku dilay warankiisii.
Another time he killed a huge Egyptian. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand but Benaiah attacked him with just a club. He grabbed the spear from the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.
22 Oo waxyaalahan waxaa sameeyey Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, oo isna saddexdii nin ee xoogga badnaa magac buu ku lahaa.
These were the kind of things Benaiah did that made him as famous as the Three leading warriors.
23 Oo weliba isagu wuu ka ciso badnaa soddonka, laakiinse ma uu gaadhin saddexdii hore. Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu isaga madax uga dhigay lataliyayaashiisii.
He was the most highly regarded of the Thirty, though he was not one of the Three. David put him in charge of his personal bodyguard.
