1 D himashadii Saa'uul dabadeed, markii Daa'uud ka soo noqday layntii reer Camaaleq oo uu Daa'uud laba maalmood Siiqlag sii joogay

Now after the death of Saul, David returned from killing the Amalekites and stayed two days in Ziklag.

2 a yaa xataa maalintii saddexaad nin ka yimid xeradii Saa'uul isagoo maryo jeexjeexan, madaxana ciidu kaga taal, oo markuu Daa'uud u yimid ayuu dhulka ku dhacay oo sujuuday.

On the third day, a man came from the tents of Saul. His clothes were torn and he had dust on his head. When he came to David, he fell with his face to the ground.

3 M arkaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi, Xaggee baad ka timid? Markaasuu isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ka soo baxsaday xeradii reer binu Israa'iil.

David said to him, “Where do you come from?” And he answered, “I have run away from the tents of Israel.”

4 D aa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, sidee baa wax u dhaceen? Bal ii sheeg. Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Dadkii dagaalkii way ka carareen, oo dadkii badidiisiina way le'deen; oo Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataanba waa dhinteen.

David said to him, “How did it go? Tell me.” And the man said, “The people have run from the battle. Many have fallen and are dead. Saul and his son Jonathan are dead also.”

5 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa, oo u soo warramay, War sidee baad u ogaatay in Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataanba ay dhinteen?

David said to the young man, “How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan are dead?”

6 M arkaasaa ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo u soo warramay, wuxuu ku yidhi, Markaan si lamafilaan ah Buur Gilboca u soo gaadhay, waxaan arkay Saa'uul oo ku tiirsan warankiisii, gaadhifardoodkii iyo fardooleydiina aad bay u eryanayeen.

The young man said, “I happened to be on Mount Gilboa. There I saw Saul holding himself up with his spear. The war-wagons and the horsemen were coming close after him.

7 O o markuu gadaashiisa dhugtay ayuu i arkay, oo ii yeedhay. Oo anna waxaan ugu jawaabay, Waa i kan.

When he looked behind him, he saw me. He called to me and I said, ‘Here I am.’

8 M arkaasuu igu yidhi, Yaad tahay? Oo anna waxaan ugu jawaabay, Nin reer Camaaleq ah baan ahay.

He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ And I answered, ‘I am an Amalekite.’

9 O o isna wuxuu igu yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, bal i soo ag joogso, oo i dil, waayo, wareer baa i haya; waayo, weli naftii waa igu jirtaa.

Then he said to me, ‘I beg you, stand beside me and kill me. I am in pain, and yet I am still alive.’

10 S aas aawadeed waan ag joogsaday oo waan dilay, maxaa yeelay, waan hubay markuu dhacay dabadeed inuusan noolaanayn; oo markaasaan ka soo qaaday taajkii madaxa u saarnaa, iyo dugaagaddii gacanta ugu jirtay, waanan kuu keenay, sayidkaygiiyow.

So I stood beside him and killed him, because I knew he could not live after he had fallen. Then I took the crown which was on his head and the beautiful gold band which he wore on his arm, and I have brought them here to my lord.”

11 M arkaasaa Daa'uud dharkiisii jeexjeexay; oo raggii isaga la jiray oo dhammuna saasoo kalay wada yeeleen,

Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him.

12 w ayna u baroorteen, oo u ooyeen, oo u soomeen ilaa fiidkii Saa'uul, iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataan, iyo dadkii Rabbiga, iyo reer binu Israa'iil aawadood; maxaa yeelay, seef bay ku le'deen.

They cried in sorrow and did not eat until evening, because of Saul and his son Jonathan, and of the people of the Lord and of the family of Israel. For they had fallen by the sword.

13 K olkaasaa Daa'uud ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo u soo warramay, Xaggee baad ka timid? Isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Waxaan ahay nin qalaad wiilkiis oo reer Camaaleq ah.

David said to the young man, “Where are you from?” And he answered, “I am the son of one from another land, an Amalekite.”

14 D aa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Sidee baad uga cabsan weyday inaad gacantaada u qaaddo Rabbiga kiisa subkan?

Then David said to him, “Why were you not afraid to put out your hand to destroy the Lord’s chosen one?”

15 D abadeedna Daa'uud wuxuu u yeedhay raggii dhallinyarada ahaa midkood, oo ku yidhi, U dhowow oo dil. Markaasuu dilay, isna wuu dhintay.

Then David called one of the young men and said, “Go, cut him down.” So he hit him and he died.

16 D aa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi, Dhiiggaagu madaxaaga ha saarnaado; waayo, afkaagaa kugu marag furay, oo waxaad tidhi, Rabbiga kiisa subkan ayaan dilay. Daa'uud Oo U Baroortay Saa'uul Iyo Yoonaataan

David said to him, “Your blood is on your head. Because your mouth has spoken against you, saying, ‘I have killed the Lord’s chosen one.’” David’s Song of Sorrow for Saul and Jonathan

17 M arkaasaa Daa'uud baroortan ugu baroortay Saa'uul iyo wiilkiisii Yoonaataan,

Then David sang a song of sorrow for Saul and his son Jonathan.

18 o o wuxuu ku amray inay carruurta dalka Yahuudah baraan gabayga qaansada; oo bal eeg, kaasu wuxuu ku qoran yahay kitaabka Yaashaar.

He told them to teach the song of the bow to the people of Judah. See, it is written in the book of Jashar.

19 R eer binu Israa'iilow, Ammaantiinnii waxaa lagu dilay meelihiinna sarsare! Bal eega kuwa xoogga leh siday u dhaceen!

“O Israel, your beauty is destroyed on your high places! How have the powerful fallen!

20 H addaba taas Gad ha ku sheegina, Oo jidadka Ashqeloonna ha ku caddaynina; Waaba intaasoo ay naagaha reer Falastiin ku farxaane, Waaba intaasoo ay buuryoqabyada naagahoodu ku guulaystaane.

Do not tell about it in Gath. Do not tell about it in the streets of Ashkelon, or the daughters of the Philistines might be filled with joy. The daughters of those who have not gone through our religious act might be filled with joy.

21 B uuraha Gilbocow, Dharab iyo roob midna yaan laydinku arkin, beerihii qurbaanyadu ka bixi jireenna yaanay jirin, Waayo, kuwii xoogga lahaa gaashaankoodii ayaa halkaas lagu tuuray, Xataa gaashaankii Saa'uul oo ahaa sida mid aan saliid lagu subkin.

O mountains of Gilboa, do not let the water that is on the grass in the early morning or rain be on you. Let not grass be grown on your fields. For there the covering of the powerful was made dirty, the covering of Saul, as if he had not been set apart with oil.

22 K uwii la laayay dhiiggoodii, iyo kuwii xoogga lahaa xaydhoodii, Yoonaataan qaansadiisii dib ugama ay soo noqon, Oo Saa'uul seeftiisiina madhnaan kuma ay soo noqon.

The bow of Jonathan did not turn away. The sword of Saul did not return empty. They did not turn from the blood of the dead and the fat of the powerful.

23 I ntay noolaayeen Saa'uul iyo Yoonaataan waxay ahaayeen kuwo la jecel yahay, oo macaan, Markay dhinteenna, lama kala geeyn, Gorgorrada way ka dheereeyeen, Libaaxyadana way ka xoog badnaayeen.

Saul and Jonathan were loved and pleasing in their life. And they were not divided in their death. They were faster than eagles. They were stronger than lions.

24 G abdhaha reer binu Israa'iilow, Saa'uul u ooya, Kii dhar cas si raaxa leh idiin huwiyey, Oo dharkiinnana dahab ku sharraxay.

O daughters of Israel, cry for Saul. He dressed you in fine red clothing. He put on your clothing objects of gold.

25 K uwii xoogga badnaa siday dagaalka ugu dhex dhaceen! Yoonaataan waxaa lagu dilay meelihiinna sarsare.

How have the powerful fallen in the center of the battle! Jonathan has been killed on your high places.

26 A nigu daraaddaa baan u dhibtooday, walaalkay Yoonaataanow; Adigu aad baad iigu macaanayd, Oo jacaylkaad ii qabtay wuxuu ahaa mid yaab leh, Oo xataa caashaqa naagaha dhaafaya.

I am troubled because of you, my brother Jonathan. You have been very pleasing to me. Your love to me was greater than the love of women.

27 B al eeg kuwii xoogga badnaa siday u dhaceen, Hubkii dagaalkuna siduu u hallaabay!

How have the powerful fallen, and the bows and swords of war destroyed!”
