1 N ow the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, “Is David not hiding in the hill of Hachilah, opposite Jeshimon?”

Oo waxaa Saa'uul Gibecaah ugu yimid kuwii reer Siif, iyagoo leh, Miyuusan Daa'uud ku dhuuman buurta Xakiilaah, oo lamadegaanka ku hor taal?

2 T hen Saul arose and went down to the Wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the Wilderness of Ziph.

Markaasaa Saa'uul kacay, oo wuxuu ku dhaadacay cidladii Siif, isagoo wata saddex kun oo nin oo reer binu Israa'iil laga soo doortay, inuu Daa'uud ka soo doondoono cidlada Siif.

3 A nd Saul encamped in the hill of Hachilah, which is opposite Jeshimon, by the road. But David stayed in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.

Kolkaasaa Saa'uul soo degay buurtii Xakiilaah, taasoo lamadegaanka ku hor taal, waddadana ku dhinac taal. Laakiinse Daa'uud cidladuu joogay, oo wuxuuna arkay in Saa'uul cidlada uga soo daba galay.

4 D avid therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul had indeed come.

Sidaas daraaddeed Daa'uud basaasyuu soo diray, wuxuuna ogaaday in Saa'uul xaqiiqa ahaan yimid.

5 S o David arose and came to the place where Saul had encamped. And David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army. Now Saul lay within the camp, with the people encamped all around him.

Markaasaa Daa'uud soo kacay oo yimid meeshii Saa'uul degay, oo Daa'uud wuxuu arkay meeshii Saa'uul jiifay, isaga iyo Abneer ina Neer oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidankiisa, oo Saa'uulna wuxuu jiifay meeshii gaadhifardoodku joogay dhexdeeda, oo dadkuna hareerihiisay degeen.

6 T hen David answered, and said to Ahimelech the Hittite and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, “Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?” And Abishai said, “I will go down with you.”

Markaasaa Daa'uud jawaabay oo ku yidhi kii reer Xeed oo Axiimeleg ahaa iyo Abiishay oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay, oo Yoo'aabna walaalkiis ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Yaa ii raacaya Saa'uul xeraduu joogo? Kolkaasaa Abiishay ku yidhi, anaa ku raacaya.

7 S o David and Abishai came to the people by night; and there Saul lay sleeping within the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the people lay all around him.

Sidaasay Daa'uud iyo Abiishay dadkii ugu yimaadeen habeennimo, oo waxay arkeen Saa'uul oo hurda meeshii gaadhifardoodka dhexdeeda, oo warankiisiina dhulkuu ku mudnaa meel madaxiisa u dhow; oo Abneer iyo dadkiina hareerihiisay jiifeen.

8 T hen Abishai said to David, “God has delivered your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore, please, let me strike him at once with the spear, right to the earth; and I will not have to strike him a second time!”

Markaasaa Abiishay wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Maanta Ilaah wuxuu kuu soo gacangeliyey cadowgaagii. Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye i daa aan wareemee oo aan mar keliya dhulka ku qodbee, oo mar labaad ku dhufan maayo.

9 B ut David said to Abishai, “Do not destroy him; for who can stretch out his hand against the Lord ’s anointed, and be guiltless?”

Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Abiishay ku yidhi, Ha dilin, waayo, bal yaa gacan u qaadi kara Rabbiga kiisa subkan, oo haddana eedla'aan doona?

10 D avid said furthermore, “ As the Lord lives, the Lord shall strike him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall go out to battle and perish.

Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye, waxaa isaga dili doona Rabbiga, ama maalintiisii baa iska iman doonta, amase dagaal buu geli doonaa markaasaa la dili doonaa.

11 T he Lord forbid that I should stretch out my hand against the Lord ’s anointed. But please, take now the spear and the jug of water that are by his head, and let us go.”

Rabbiga ha iga fogeeyo inaan gacanta u qaado Rabbiga kiisa subkan. Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye inoo qaad waranka madaxiisa ag yaal iyo kusadda biyaha, oo ina keen aannu tagnee.

12 S o David took the spear and the jug of water by Saul’s head, and they got away; and no man saw or knew it or awoke. For they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from the Lord had fallen on them.

Sidaas aawadeed Daa'uud wuxuu Saa'uul madaxiisii ka ag qaatay warankii iyo kusaddii biyaha; kolkaasay tageen, oo ninnaba ma arkin, lamana ogayn, oo midna ma toosin, waayo, kulligood way wada hurdeen, maxaa yeelay, waxaa xagga Rabbiga kaga soo degtay hurdo weyn.

13 N ow David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of a hill afar off, a great distance being between them.

Markaasaa Daa'uud dhankii kale u gudbay oo wuxuu ku dul istaagay buur iyaga in yar ka fog, oo waxaana u dhexeeyey bannaan weyn.

14 A nd David called out to the people and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, “Do you not answer, Abner?” Then Abner answered and said, “Who are you, calling out to the king?”

Kolkaasaa Daa'uud u dhawaaqay dadkii iyo Abneer oo ahaa ina Neer, oo yidhi, Abneerow, war miyaadan jawaabayn? Markaasaa Abneer jawaabay oo yidhi, Kaaga boqorka u dhawaaqayaa, kumaad tahay?

15 S o David said to Abner, “ Are you not a man? And who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not guarded your lord the king? For one of the people came in to destroy your lord the king.

Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Abneer ku yidhi, War sow ma tihid nin rag ah? Yaana kula mid ah oo reer binu Israa'iil ku jira? Haddaba maxaad u dhawri weyday sayidkaaga boqorka ah? Waayo, mid dadka ka mid ah ayaa xerada u galay inuu boqorka sayidkaaga ah dilo.

16 T his thing that you have done is not good. As the Lord lives, you deserve to die, because you have not guarded your master, the Lord ’s anointed. And now see where the king’s spear is, and the jug of water that was by his head.”

War waxan aad samaysay ma wanaagsana. Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye waxaad istaahishaan dhimasho, maxaa yeelay, ma aydaan dhawrin sayidkiinna ah Rabbiga kiisa subkan. Haddaba bal fiiriya boqorka warankiisii iyo kusaddiisii biyaha oo madaxiisa ag yiil.

17 T hen Saul knew David’s voice, and said, “ Is that your voice, my son David?” David said, “ It is my voice, my lord, O king.”

Markaasaa Saa'uul gartay Daa'uud codkiisii oo yidhi, Wiilkaygii Daa'uudow, kaasu ma codkaagii baa? Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Haah, kanu waa codkaygii, boqorow sayidkaygiiyow.

18 A nd he said, “Why does my lord thus pursue his servant? For what have I done, or what evil is in my hand?

Oo haddana wuxuu yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, maxaad ii eryanaysaa, anoo addoonkaaga ah? Waayo, maxaan sameeyey? Waase maxay xumaanta gacantayda ku jirtaa?

19 N ow therefore, please, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant: If the Lord has stirred you up against me, let Him accept an offering. But if it is the children of men, may they be cursed before the Lord, for they have driven me out this day from sharing in the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’

Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, boqorow sayidkaygiiyow, bal maqal erayadayda anoo addoonkaaga ah. Oo haddii Rabbigu igu kaa diray qurbaan ha aqbalo, laakiinse haddii waxa igu kaa diray ay binu-aadmi yihiin, Rabbiga hortiisa ha ku inkaarnaadeen, waayo, maanta way i eryeen si aanan u sii joogin dhaxalkii Rabbiga, oo waxay igu yidhaahdeen, Tag oo ilaahyo kale u adeeg.

20 S o now, do not let my blood fall to the earth before the face of the Lord. For the king of Israel has come out to seek a flea, as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains.”

Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed dhiiggaygu yuusan ku daadan meel Rabbiga hortiisa ka fog, waayo, boqorkii reer binu Israa'iilow, waxaad u soo baxday si aad tagfi u doondoonto, oo waa sidii mid buuraha digaagduur ka ugaadhsanaya.

21 T hen Saul said, “I have sinned. Return, my son David. For I will harm you no more, because my life was precious in your eyes this day. Indeed I have played the fool and erred exceedingly.”

Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Waan dembaabay, wiilkaygii Daa'uudow, iska noqo, waayo, anigu mar dambe wax ku yeeli maayo, maxaa yeelay, maanta naftaydu qaali bay kula noqotay. Bal eeg, waan nacasoobay oo aad iyo aad baan u qaldamay.

22 A nd David answered and said, “Here is the king’s spear. Let one of the young men come over and get it.

Markaasaa Daa'uud ugu jawaabay, Boqorow, waa kan warankaagii! Haddaba ragga dhallinyarada ah midkood ha u yimaado oo ha kuu qaado.

23 M ay the Lord repay every man for his righteousness and his faithfulness; for the Lord delivered you into my hand today, but I would not stretch out my hand against the Lord ’s anointed.

Oo Rabbiguna nin walba wuu ka abaalmarin doonaa xaqnimadiisa iyo aaminnimadiisa, waayo, Rabbigu maanta gacantayduu kugu soo riday, aniguse ma aan doonaynin inaan gacantayda u qaado Rabbiga kiisa subkan.

24 A nd indeed, as your life was valued much this day in my eyes, so let my life be valued much in the eyes of the Lord, and let Him deliver me out of all tribulation.”

Oo bal eeg, sida maanta naftaadu iigu dheeraatay, sidaas oo kale naftaydu ha ku dheeraato Rabbiga hortiisa, oo dhibaato oo dhanna ha iga samatabbixiyo.

25 T hen Saul said to David, “ May you be blessed, my son David! You shall both do great things and also still prevail.” So David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place.

Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Wiilkaygii Daa'uudow, waad barakaysan tahay. Hubaal xoog baad yeelan doontaa, waadna guulaysan doontaa. Dabadeedna Daa'uud waa iska tegey, Saa'uulna meeshiisuu ku noqday.
