< Samuu'Eel Labaad 5 >

1 Markaasaa qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay Daa'uud ugu yimaadeen Xebroon, oo intay la hadleen ayay ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu nahay laftaada iyo jidhkaaga.
All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and told him, “We are your flesh and blood.
2 Waagii hore oo Saa'uul boqorka noo ahaa, adiguu ahaa kii reer binu Israa'iil dibadda u bixin jiray oo gudaha soo gelin jiray; oo Rabbiguna wuxuu kugu yidhi, Adigu waxaad quudin doontaa dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil, oo amiir baanad u ahaan doontaa reer binu Israa'iil.
Previously when Saul was our king, you were the one who led the Israelite army into battle. The Lord told you, ‘You will be the shepherd of my people Israel, and you will be their ruler.’”
3 Sidaas aawadeed odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay boqorkii ugu yimaadeen Xebroon; oo Boqor Daa'uudna wuxuu iyagii axdi kula dhigtay Xebroon Rabbiga hortiisa, oo iyana waxay Daa'uud u boqreen inuu ahaado boqor reer binu Israa'iil u taliya.
All the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made an agreement with them in the Lord's presence. Then they anointed him king of Israel.
4 Oo Daa'uudna soddon sannadood buu jiray markuu bilaabay inuu boqor noqdo, oo wuxuuna boqor ahaa afartan sannadood.
David was thirty when he became king, and he reigned for forty years.
5 Oo reer Yahuudahna wuxuu Xebroon ugu talinayay toddoba sannadood iyo lix bilood, oo reer Israa'iil oo dhan iyo reer Yahuudahna wuxuu Yeruusaalem ugu talinayay saddex iyo soddon sannadood.
He reigned over Judah seven years and six months from Hebron, and he reigned over all of Israel and Judah for thirty-three years from Jerusalem.
6 Oo boqorkii iyo raggiisiiba waxay tageen Yeruusaalem, inay ku duulaan reer Yebuus oo ahaa dadkii dalka degganaa, kuwaasoo la hadlay Daa'uud oo ku yidhi, Adoo kuwa indhaha la' iyo curyaannada qaada mooyaane halkan iman maysid, waayo, waxay u maleeyeen inuusan Daa'uud halkaas iman karin.
David the king and his men went to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites who were living there. The Jebusites told David: “You'll never enter here. Even the blind and lame could stop you.” They were convinced that David could not get in.
7 Habase yeeshee Daa'uud waa qabsaday qalcaddii Siyoon, oo taasuna waa magaaladii Daa'uud.
But David did capture the fortress of Zion, now known as the City of David.
8 Markaasaa Daa'uud maalintaas wuxuu yidhi, Ku alla kii reer Yebuus laayaa, ha tago meesha biyomareenka ah, oo ha ku laayo curyaannada iyo indhoolayaasha oo neceb Daa'uud naftiisa. Sidaas daraaddeed waxay leeyihiin, Indhoolayaasha iyo curyaannadu yaanay guriga soo gelin.
At that time he said, “If we are to successfully conquer the Jebusites we'll have to go up the water shaft to attack these ‘lame and blind’ —these people who hate David. This is why it's said, ‘The blind and the lame will never enter the house.’”
9 Oo Daa'uudna qalcaddii ayuu degay, wuxuuna u bixiyey magaaladii Daa'uud. Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu dhisay hareeraheedii iyo tan iyo Millo ilaa gudaha.
David went and lived in the fortress, and named it the City of David. He extended it in all directions, starting from the outer supporting terraces and moving inwards.
10 Oo Daa'uudna aad iyo aad buu u sii xoogaystay; waayo, waxaa isaga la jiray Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammada.
David became increasingly powerful, for the Lord God Almighty was with him.
11 Markaasaa Xiiraam oo ahaa boqorkii Turos ayaa Daa'uud wargeeyayaal u soo diray, iyo geedo kedar la yidhaahdo, iyo nijaarro iyo wastaadyo, oo iyana guri bay Daa'uud u dhiseen.
King Hiram of Tyre sent representatives to David, together with cedar timber, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
12 Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu ogaaday in Rabbigu isaga u taagay inuu ahaado boqor u taliya reer binu Israa'iil, iyo inuu boqortooyadiisa u sarraysiiyey dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil aawadood.
David realized that the Lord had installed him as king of Israel, and had made his kingdom great for the sake of his people Israel.
13 Oo Daa'uudna weliba Yeruusaalem ayuu ka guursaday addoommo iyo naago kale markuu Xebroon ka yimid dabadeed, oo weliba waxaa Daa'uud u dhashay wiilal iyo gabdho.
After he moved from Hebron, David added more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and he had more sons and daughters.
14 Oo kuwanuna waa kuwii isaga Yeruusaalem ugu dhashay magacyadoodii: Shammuuca, iyo Shoobaab, iyo Naataan, iyo Sulaymaan,
These are the names of his children born in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 iyo Yibxaar, iyo Eliishuuca, iyo Nefeg, iyo Yaafiica,
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
16 iyo Eliishaamaac, iyo Elyaadaac, iyo Eliifeled.
Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
17 Oo reer Falastiinna markay maqleen in Daa'uud loo subkay inuu boqor u ahaado reer binu Israa'iil ayay reer Falastiin oo dhammu u soo baxeen inay Daa'uud doondoonaan; oo Daa'uudna taas wuu maqlay, markaasuu dhufayskii hoos ugu dhaadhacay.
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king of Israel, the whole Philistine army came out to capture him, but David found out and went inside the stronghold.
18 Haddaba reer Falastiin way yimaadeen, oo waxay ku firdheen dooxadii Refaa'iim.
The Philistines came and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
19 Markaasaa Daa'uud Rabbiga wax weyddiiyey, oo yidhi, Miyaan reer Falastiin ku kacaa? Miyaad ii soo gacangelinaysaa? Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Haah, ku kac, waayo, hubaal reer Falastiin waan kuu soo gacangelinayaa.
David asked the Lord “Should I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” “Yes, go,” the Lord replied, “for I will definitely hand them over to you.”
20 Markaasaa Daa'uud yimid Bacal Feraasiim, oo halkaasaa Daa'uud iyagii ku laayay, oo yidhi, Rabbigu cadaawayaashaydii ayuu hortayda degdeg ugu qabtay, sida biyaha butaacayaa u degdegaan oo kale. Sidaas daraaddeed meeshaas magaceedii wuxuu u bixiyey Bacal Feraasiim.
David went to Baal-perazim and he defeated the Philistines there. “Like a flood that bursts out, so the Lord has burst out against my enemies right before me,” David declared. So he named that place Baal-perazim.
21 Iyana halkaasay sanamyadoodii kaga tageen, waxaana qaaday Daa'uud iyo raggiisii.
The Philistines left their idols behind, and David and his men removed them.
22 Haddana reer Falastiin mar kalay soo kaceen oo dooxadii Refaa'iim ku firdheen.
A while later the Philistines came again and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
23 Oo Daa'uudna markuu Rabbiga wax weyddiiyey ayaa Rabbigu ku yidhi, Waa inaadan ku kicin, laakiinse xagga dambe ka mar oo waxaad ku weerartaa meel ka soo hor jeedda geedaha bukaa la yidhaahdo.
David asked the Lord what to do. The Lord replied, “Don't attack them directly, but go round behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
24 Oo markaad sanqadha askarta socodkeeda ka maqashid geedaha bukaa dushooda, kolkaas waa inaad dhaqsataa, waayo, Rabbigu waa kaaga hor baxay inuu ciidanka reer Falastiin laayo.
Immediately you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees be ready, because this means the Lord has marched out before you to attack the Philistine camp.”
25 Oo Daa'uudna sidii buu yeelay sidii Rabbigu ku amray, oo wuxuu reer Falastiin ku laynayay ilaa Gebac iyo tan iyo Geser.
David followed the Lord's orders, and he slaughtered the Philistines from Geba all the way to Gezer.
