1 N ow the Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons.”

Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, War ilaa goormaad Saa'uul u ooyaysaa, adigoo og inaan u diiday inuu reer binu Israa'iil boqor u ahaado? Haddaba geeskaaga saliid ka buuxso oo tag, waxaan kuu dirayaa Yesay oo ah reer Beytlaxam; waayo, boqor baan wiilashiisa ka dhex doortay.

2 A nd Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.” But the Lord said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’

Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu yidhi, Sidee baan u tegi karaa? Waayo, haddii Saa'uul taas maqlo wuu i dili doonaa. Oo Rabbiguna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaad kaxaysataa qaalin lo' ah, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Waxaan u imid inaan Rabbiga allabari u bixiyo.

3 T hen invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; you shall anoint for Me the one I name to you.”

Oo Yesay allabariga ugu yeedh, waanan ku tusi doonaa waxaad samayn doonto; oo waxaad ii subagtaa kii aan kuu magacaabo.

4 S o Samuel did what the Lord said, and went to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, “Do you come peaceably?”

Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu Rabbigu kala hadlay ayuu sameeyey, wuxuuna yimid Beytlaxam. Oo odayaashii magaaladuna way ka hor tageen, iyagoo gariiraya, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Nabad ma u timid?

5 A nd he said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.

Markaasuu yidhi, Haah, nabad baan u imid, waxaanan u imid inaan Rabbiga allabari u bixiyo. Haddaba isa soo daahiriya, oo kaalaya, meesha allabariga ii raaca. Markaasuu wuxuu daahirshay Yesay iyo wiilashiisii, dabadeedna meeshii allabariga buu ugu yeedhay.

6 S o it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the Lord ’s anointed is before Him!”

Oo markay yimaadeen wuxuu fiiriyey Elii'aab, oo yidhi, Hubaal kii Rabbigu subkaday ayaa hortiisa jooga.

7 B ut the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Ha fiirin soojeedkiisa, ama dhererkiisa, maxaa yeelay, waan diiday isaga. Rabbigu wax uma arko sida dadku wax u arko, waayo, dadku wuxuu fiiriyaa muuqashada dusha, Rabbiguse qalbiguu fiiriyaa.

8 S o Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, “Neither has the Lord chosen this one.”

Markaasaa Yesay u yeedhay Abiinaadaab, oo soo mariyey Samuu'eel hortiisa, Samuu'eelna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu kanna ma uu dooran.

9 T hen Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, “Neither has the Lord chosen this one.”

Oo haddana Yesay wuu soo hor mariyey Shammaah. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu kanna ma dooran.

10 T hus Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. And Samuel said to Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen these.”

Yesayna wuxuu Samuu'eel soo hor mariyey toddoba wiilashiisii ka mid ah. Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, Rabbigu kuwan ma dooran.

11 A nd Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all the young men here?” Then he said, “There remains yet the youngest, and there he is, keeping the sheep.” And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and bring him. For we will not sit down till he comes here.”

Samuu'eelna wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, War carruurtaadii halkan ma wada joogaan? Markaasuu yidhi, Weli waxaa hadhay kii ugu yaraa, oo idahuu ilaalinayaa. Oo haddana Samuu'eel wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, Cid u dir oo keen; waayo, innagu fadhiisan mayno jeeruu halkan yimaado.

12 S o he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the Lord said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!”

Markaasuu u cid diray, oo soo geliyey. Oo isna wuxuu ahaa mid cas, oo soojeed qurxoon, oo midabkiisuna aad u wanaagsan yahay. Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Kac, oo subag, waayo, kanu waa isagii.

13 T hen Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah. A Distressing Spirit Troubles Saul

Markaasaa Samuu'eel qaaday geeskii saliiddu ku jirtay, wuuna ku subkay isagoo walaalihiis dhex jooga; oo maalintaas intii ka dambaysay Ruuxii Rabbigu aad buu ugu soo degay Daa'uud. Dabadeedna Samuu'eel wuu kacay, oo Raamaah buu tegey. Daa'uud Oo U Adeegayaa Saa'uul

14 B ut the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the Lord troubled him.

Haddaba Ruuxii Rabbigu Saa'uul wuu ka tegey, oo ruux shar leh oo xagga Rabbiga ka yimid ayaa dhibay isagii.

15 A nd Saul’s servants said to him, “Surely, a distressing spirit from God is troubling you.

Markaasaa Saa'uul addoommadiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, haatan waxaa ku dhibaya ruux shar leh oo xagga Ilaah ka yimid.

16 L et our master now command your servants, who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. And it shall be that he will play it with his hand when the distressing spirit from God is upon you, and you shall be well.”

Sayidkayagow, nagu amar annagoo ah addoommadaada ku hor jooga inaannu kuu doondoonno nin aad kataaradda u yaqaan; oo markuu ruuxa sharka leh ee xagga Ilaah ka yimid kugu soo dego, ayuu kataaradda garaaci doonaa, waanad bogsan doontaa.

17 S o Saul said to his servants, “Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me.”

Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, Ii doona nin aad u yaqaan, oo ii keena.

18 T hen one of the servants answered and said, “Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a handsome person; and the Lord is with him.”

Dabadeedna raggii dhallinyarada ahaa midkood ayaa ku jawaabay oo yidhi, Waxaan arkay Yesayga reer Beytlaxam wiil uu dhalay oo aad u yaqaan sida kataaradda lagu dhufto oo ah nin xoog leh oo dagaalyahan ah, codkarna ah, oo suurad qurxoon, oo weliba Rabbiguna wuu la jiraa.

19 T herefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, “Send me your son David, who is with the sheep.”

Sidaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wargeeyayaal buu u diray Yesay oo ku yidhi, Wiilkaaga Daa'uud oo idaha ilaalinaya ii soo dir.

20 A nd Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by his son David to Saul.

Markaasaa Yesay wuxuu soo kexeeyey dameer ku raran kibis iyo sibraar khamri ah, iyo orgi yar, oo Saa'uul buu u diray. Wuxuuna ugu sii dhiibay wiilkiisii Daa'uud.

21 S o David came to Saul and stood before him. And he loved him greatly, and he became his armorbearer.

Markaasaa Daa'uud Saa'uul u yimid, oo hortiisuu soo istaagay, oo isna aad buu u jeclaaday Daa'uud, oo wuxuu Saa'uul u noqday kii hubka u siday.

22 T hen Saul sent to Jesse, saying, “Please let David stand before me, for he has found favor in my sight.”

Kolkaasaa Saa'uul farriin u diray Yesay oo ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ii daa Daa'uud, hortayda ha joogee, waayo, isagu aad buu iiga farxiyey.

23 A nd so it was, whenever the spirit from God was upon Saul, that David would take a harp and play it with his hand. Then Saul would become refreshed and well, and the distressing spirit would depart from him.

Oo markuu ruuxii sharka lahaa ee xagga Ilaah ka yimid Saa'uul ku soo degay ayaa Daa'uud qaatay kataaraddiisii, oo garaacay, dabadeedna Saa'uul wuu qaboobay, wuuna bogsaday, oo ruuxii sharka lahaana waa ka tegey.
