1 O o Daa'uud markuu in yar dhaafay jiirta dusheedii waxaa u yimid Siibaa oo ahaa midiidinkii Mefiiboshed, isagoo wada laba dameer oo kooraysan, oo dushoodana waxaa u saarnaa laba boqol oo xabbadood oo kibis ah, iyo boqol rucubood oo sabiib ah, iyo boqol rucubood oo midho xagaa ah, iyo sibraar khamri ah.

¶ And when David was a little past the top of the mountain, behold, Ziba, the servant of Mephibosheth, met him with a couple of asses saddled and upon them two hundred loaves of bread and one hundred bunches of raisins and one hundred of summer fruits and a bottle of wine.

2 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Siibaa ku yidhi, War waxyaalahan maxaad ula jeeddaa? Oo Siibaana wuxuu yidhi, Dameeraha waxaan u keenay in boqorka reerkiisu fuulaan; kibista iyo midhahana waxaan u keenay in ragga dhallinyarada ahu cunaan; khamrigana waxaan u keenay in ku alla kii cidlada ku itaal darnaadaa uu cabbo.

And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses are for the king’s household to ride on, and the bread and summer fruit for the servants to eat, and the wine that those that become weary in the wilderness may drink.

3 M arkaasaa boqorkii ku yidhi, Meeh wiilkii sayidkaagu? Siibaana boqorkii buu ku yidhi, Yeruusaalem buu ku hadhay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil maantay ii soo celin doonaan boqortooyadii aabbahay.

And the king said, And where is thy master’s son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he abides at Jerusalem, for he said, Today shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.

4 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu Siibaa ku yidhi, Bal eeg, Mefiiboshed wixiisa oo dhan adigaa iska leh. Oo Siibaana wuxuu yidhi, Boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, waan ku sujuudayaa hortaada; aan raallinimo kaa helo. Shimcii Oo Habaaray Daa'uud

Then the king said to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertained unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba bowed down and said, Let me find grace in thy sight, my lord, O king.

5 O o Boqor Daa'uudna markuu Baxuuriim yimid, waxaa ku soo baxay nin ay Saa'uul isku cid ahaayeen, oo magiciisa la odhan jiray Shimcii ina Geeraa. Wuu soo baxay, isagoo habaartamaya intuu soo socday.

¶ And when King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of the house of Saul came forth, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he came forth cursing

6 O o dhagxan buuna ku tuuray Daa'uud iyo addoommadii Boqor Daa'uud oo dhanba, oo dadkii oo dhan iyo raggii xoogga lahaa oo dhammuna waxay joogeen midigtiisa iyo bidixdiisaba.

and casting stones at David and at all the slaves of King David; and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.

7 O o Shimcii markuu habaartamayay wuxuu lahaa, Naga tag, nin yahow dhiigga qabaa, oo naga tag, nin yahow waxmataraha ihi!

And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial;

8 R abbigu waa ku kor saaray reer Saa'uul dhiiggoodii oo dhan, Saa'uulkaasoo aad meeshiisii xukumayso; oo Rabbigu boqortooyadii gacantuu u geliyey wiilkaaga Absaaloom; oo bal eeg, adiga belaayadaadii baa kula tagtaye, maxaa yeelay, waxaad tahay nin dhiig qaba.

the LORD has returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom, thy son; and, behold, thou art taken in thy evil because thou art a bloody man.

9 M arkaasaa Abiishay oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, War eeygan dhintay muxuu kuu habaarayaa, boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow? Waan ku baryayaaye, i daa intaan u tago aan madaxa ka gooyee.

Then Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, said unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse, my lord the king? Let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.

10 K olkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu yidhi, Kuwiinna ay Seruuyaah dhashayow, bal maxaa inoo dhexeeya? Hadduu habaartamay, oo Rabbigu ku yidhi, Daa'uud soo habaar, bal yaa ninkan ku odhan kara, War maxaad saas u yeeshay?

And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse, because the LORD has said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Why hast thou done so?

11 D aa'uudna wuxuu ku yidhi Abiishay, iyo addoommadiisii oo dhanba, Bal eega, wiilkaygii iga soo baxay ayaa doonaya inuu nafta iga qaado; haddaba intee in ka badan ayaa ninkan reer Benyaamiin igu samaynayaa? Haddaba ninkan iska daaya, ha iska habaartamee; waayo, Rabbigaa saas ku amray.

And David said to Abishai, and to all his slaves, Behold, my son, who came forth of my bowels, seeks my life; how much more now a son of Jemini? Let him alone, and let him curse, for the LORD has bidden him.

12 M indhaa Rabbigu intuu dhibaatadayda eego ayuu wanaag iigu beddeli doonaa habaarkuu maanta igu habaaray.

It may be that the LORD will look on my affliction and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.

13 S idaas daraaddeed Daa'uud iyo raggiisiiba jidkii bay mareen, Shimciina wuxuu maray buurtii agtiisa ahayd dhinaceeda, oo intuu sii socdayna Daa'uud buu habaarayay, oo dhagxan ku tuurayay, ciidna wuu ku soo saydhayay.

And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the side of the mountain over against him and cursed as he went and threw stones at him and cast dust.

14 O o boqorkii iyo dadkii isaga la jiray oo dhammu waxay yimaadeen iyagoo daalay; halkaasuuna ku nastay. Taladii Xuushay Iyo Axiitofel

And the king and all the people that were with him arrived weary and refreshed themselves there.

15 M arkaasaa Absaaloom iyo dadkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu Yeruusaalem yimaadeen, iyagoo uu Axiitofel la socdo.

¶ And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.

16 O o kolkii Xuushay kii reer Arkii oo Daa'uud saaxiibkiis ahaa uu Absaaloom u yimid ayaa Xuushay Absaaloom ku yidhi, Boqorku ha noolaado, boqorku ha noolaado.

And it came to pass when Hushai the Archite, David’s special companion, came unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto Absalom, Long live the king, Long live the king.

17 M arkaasaa Absaaloom wuxuu Xuushay ku yidhi, Ma sidatanaad ugu roonaanaysaa saaxiibka? Maxaadse saaxiibkaa u raaci weyday?

And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy mercy to thy friend? Why didst thou not go with thy friend?

18 X uushayna wuxuu Absaaloom ku yidhi, Saas ma aha; laakiinse kii Rabbiga, iyo dadkan, iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu doorteen ayaa i lahaanaya, oo isagaan la joogayaa.

And Hushai said unto Absalom, No, but whom the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.

19 O o haddana, bal yaan u adeegaa? Sow wiilkiisa ma aha? Sidaan aabbahaa ugu adeegi jiray oo kale ayaan haatanna adiga kuugu adeegayaa.

And again, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in thy father’s presence, so will I be in thy presence.

20 M arkaasaa Absaaloom wuxuu Axiitofel ku yidhi, Bal ka tali waxaan samayn lahayn.

Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.

21 O o Axiitofelna wuxuu Absaaloom ku yidhi, Waxaad u tagtaa naagaha addoommaha ah ee aabbahaa, ee uu uga tegey inay guriga dhawraan; oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna waxay maqli doonaan in aabbahaa ku karahsaday; dabadeedna inta kula jirta oo dhan gacmahoodu way xoogaysan doonaan.

And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Go in unto thy father’s concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred of thy father; then the hands of all that are with thee shall be strong.

22 S idaas daraaddeed Absaaloom teendhay uga dhiseen guriga dushiisa, oo Absaaloomna wuxuu u tegey naagihii addoommaha ahaa ee aabbihiis, iyadoo ay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu u jeedeen.

So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house, and Absalom went in unto his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.

23 O o waayahaasna taladii Axiitofel ku talin jiray waxay ahayd sidii Ilaah hadalkiisa markii Ilaah wax la weyddiisto oo kale; oo Axiitofel taladiisuna saasay la ahayd Daa'uud iyo Absaaloomba.

And the counselled of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the word of God: so was all the counselled of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.
