1 H addaba waxaa maalin dhacay inuu Yoonaataan ina Saa'uul ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo hubkiisa u siday, Bal ina keen aan ciidanka reer Falastiin oo xaggaas jooga u gudubnee. Laakiinse taas uma uu sheegin aabbihiis.

Now the day came that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was carrying his armor, “Come and let us cross over to the Philistines’ garrison that is on the other side.” But he did not tell his father.

2 O o Saa'uulna wuxuu joogay Gibecaah darafkeeda, oo wuxuu hoos fadhiyey geed rummaanka ah oo Migroon ku yaal; oo dadkii isaga la joogayna waxay ahaayeen in ku dhow lix boqol oo nin,

Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,

3 i yo Axiiyaah oo ahaa ina Axiituub, oo Iikaboodna walaalkiis ahaa, ee ahaa reer Fiinexaas ina Ceelii oo ahaa wadaadkii Rabbiga oo Shiiloh joogay, isagoo eefod qaba. Oo dadkuna ma ogayn inuu Yoonaataan tegey.

and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod’s brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the Lord at Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.

4 O o Yoonaataan marinkii uu doonayay inuu uga gudbo ciidanka reer Falastiin waxaa dhinac kaga yiil buur dhagax ah, dinaca kalena waxaa kaga yiil buur dhagax ah, oo middood magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Boosees, oo tan kale magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Seneh.

Between the passes by which Jonathan sought to cross over to the Philistines’ garrison, there was a sharp crag on the one side and a sharp crag on the other side, and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

5 O o buur waxay ku tiil xagga woqooyi oo Mikmaash ka horraysa, oo tan kalena waxay ku tiil xagga koonfureed oo Gebacda horraysa.

The one crag rose on the north opposite Michmash, and the other on the south opposite Geba.

6 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo hubkiisa u siday, Kaalay, oo ina keen aan xagga ciidanka buuryoqabka ah u gudubnee, waayo, waxaa suurtowda in Rabbigu inoo shaqeeyo, maxaa yeelay, Rabbiga waxba kama hor joogsan karaan inuu ku badbaadiyo kuwo badan ama kuwo yarba.

Then Jonathan said to the young man who was carrying his armor, “Come and let us cross over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; perhaps the Lord will work for us, for the Lord is not restrained to save by many or by few.”

7 O o kii hubka u sidayna wuxuu ku yidhi, Wax alla waxa qalbigaaga ku jira yeel, oo bal eeg, waan kula socdaa, oo sida qalbigaagu yahay weeye kayguna.

His armor bearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart; turn yourself, and here I am with you according to your desire.”

8 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu yidhi, Bal eeg, nimanka xaggooda ayaynu u gudbaynaa, oo isu muujinaynaa iyaga.

Then Jonathan said, “ Behold, we will cross over to the men and reveal ourselves to them.

9 O o haddii ay inagu yidhaahdaan, Jooga halkiinna ilaa aannu idiin nimaadno, markaas waxaynu iska joogaynaa meesheenna, oo una tegi mayno.

If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you’; then we will stand in our place and not go up to them.

10 L aakiinse haddii ay inagu yidhaahdaan, Kaalaya oo soo fuula, markaasaynu fuulaynaa, waayo, Rabbigu iyaga gacanteennuu soo geliyey, oo taasaa calaamadii inoo ahaan doonta.

But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up, for the Lord has given them into our hands; and this shall be the sign to us.”

11 O o labadoodiiba waxay isu muujiyeen ciidankii reer Falastiin; markaasay kuwii reer Falastiin waxay yidhaahdeen, Bal eega Cibraaniyadii waxay ka soo baxayaan godadkii ay ku dhuunteene.

When both of them revealed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines, the Philistines said, “Behold, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden themselves.”

12 O o raggii ciidanku waxay Yoonaataan iyo kii hubkiisa u siday ugu jawaabeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Soo fuula, wax baannu idin tusaynaaye. Markaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu ku yidhi kii hubkiisa u siday, Iga soo daba fuul, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu iyaga soo geliyey gacanta reer binu Israa'iil.

So the men of the garrison hailed Jonathan and his armor bearer and said, “Come up to us and we will tell you something.” And Jonathan said to his armor bearer, “Come up after me, for the Lord has given them into the hands of Israel.”

13 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan buurtii fantay, kii hubkiisa u sidayna wuu daba socday, oo kuwii reer Falastiinna way ku hor dhaceen Yoonaataan, kii hubkiisa u sidayna wuu ka daba laayay.

Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, with his armor bearer behind him; and they fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer put some to death after him.

14 Y oonaataan iyo kii hubkiisa u siday intii ugu horraysay oo ay laayeen waxay ahayd in ku dhow labaatan nin oo ay ku laayeen goob nus tacab ah. Reer Binu Israa'iil Oo Ka Adkaaday Reer Falastiin

That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an acre of land.

15 O o cabsi weyn bay la qadhqadheen kuwii xerada ku jiray, iyo kuwii duurka joogay iyo dadkii oo dhanba; oo xataa ciidankii, iyo waxdhacayaashuna way wada gariireen, oo dhulkuna waa gariiray, haddana waxaa jiray gariir aad iyo aad u weyn.

And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even the garrison and the raiders trembled, and the earth quaked so that it became a great trembling.

16 M arkaasaa Saa'uul waardiyayaashiisii Gibecaahdii reer Benyaamiin joogay wax fiiriyeen, oo waxay arkeen dadkii badnaa oo kala firdhay oo xaggan iyo xaggaa u kala yaacay.

Now Saul’s watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away; and they went here and there.

17 K olkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu dadkii isaga la jiray ku yidhi, Bal tiriya, oo eega kii inaga tegey kuu yahay. Oo markay tiriyeen waxay arkeen inayan Yoonaataan iyo kii hubkiisa u siday halkaas joogin.

Saul said to the people who were with him, “ Number now and see who has gone from us.” And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armor bearer were not there.

18 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Axiiyaah ku yidhi, Sanduuqii Ilaah halkan keen. Waayo, waagaas sanduuqa Ilaah wuxuu la jiray reer binu Israa'iil.

Then Saul said to Ahijah, “ Bring the ark of God here.” For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel.

19 O o markuu Saa'uul la hadlayay wadaadkii, rabshaddii ku jirtay xerada reer Falastiin ayaa sii adkaatay oo sii badatay; kolkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu wadaadkii ku yidhi, Gacanta laab.

While Saul talked to the priest, the commotion in the camp of the Philistines continued and increased; so Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”

20 M arkaasaa Saa'uul iyo dadkii la jiray oo dhammuba isa soo wada urursadeen, oo waxay yimaadeen goobtii dagaalka. Oo bal eeg, nin walba seeftiisii waxay ku dhacday saaxiibkiis, oo waxaa jiray baabba' aad u weyn.

Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and came to the battle; and behold, every man’s sword was against his fellow, and there was very great confusion.

21 O o Cibraaniyadii markii hore la jiray reer Falastiin, oo intay raaceen xerada la galay, iyagoo dalka ku wareegsan ka yimid, xataa iyana way soo jeesteen, oo waxay ku darmadeen reer binu Israa'iilkii la jiray Saa'uul iyo Yoonaataan.

Now the Hebrews who were with the Philistines previously, who went up with them all around in the camp, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.

22 O o sidaas oo kalena kulli raggii reer binu Israa'iil oo mar hore ku dhuuntay dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, iyana markii ay maqleen in reer Falastiin carareen ayay soo raacdaysteen oo dagaalkii soo galeen.

When all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, even they also pursued them closely in the battle.

23 S idaasuu Rabbigu maalintaas u badbaadiyey reer binu Israa'iil; oo dagaalkiina wuxuu u sii gudbay xagga Beytaawen. Yoonaataan Oo Cunay Malab

So the Lord delivered Israel that day, and the battle spread beyond Beth-aven. Saul’s Foolish Order

24 O o maalintaas dadka reer binu Israa'iil way dhibaataysnaayeen; laakiinse Saa'uul baa dadkii dhaariyey oo ku yidhi, Ilaa ay fiidkii noqoto, oo aan cadaawayaashayda ka aarsado ninkii wax cuna inkaaru ha ku dhacdo. Haddaba dadkii cunto ma dhadhamin innaba.

Now the men of Israel were hard-pressed on that day, for Saul had put the people under oath, saying, “Cursed be the man who eats food before evening, and until I have avenged myself on my enemies.” So none of the people tasted food.

25 O o dadkii oo dhammu waxay soo galeen duurkii, dhulkana waxaa yiil malab.

All the people of the land entered the forest, and there was honey on the ground.

26 O o markii dadkii soo galay duurkii ayaa malabkii soo dareeray, laakiinse ninna gacanta afka ma saarin, waayo, dadku waxay ka cabsadeen dhaartii.

When the people entered the forest, behold, there was a flow of honey; but no man put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.

27 L aakiinse Yoonaataan ma uu maqlin markii aabbihiis dadka dhaarta ku amray, sidaas aawadeed wuxuu soo fidiyey ushii gacanta ugu jirtay caaraddeedii, oo wuxuu daray malabkii, markaasuu gacantii afka saaray; oo indhihiisiina aad bay u iftiimeen.

But Jonathan had not heard when his father put the people under oath; therefore, he put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.

28 M arkaasaa dadkii mid ka mid ahu u jawaabay, oo ku yidhi, Aabbahaa dadka dhaar buu aad ugu amray oo yidhi, Maanta ninkii wax cuna inkaaru ha ku dhacdo. Oo dadkiina way itaal darnaayeen.

Then one of the people said, “Your father strictly put the people under oath, saying, ‘Cursed be the man who eats food today.’” And the people were weary.

29 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu yidhi, Aabbahay isagaa dalka dhibay, waan idin baryayaaye, bal eega sida indhahaygu u iftiimeen, maxaa yeelay, in yar baan ka dhadhamiyey malabkan.

Then Jonathan said, “ My father has troubled the land. See now, how my eyes have brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.

30 H addaba intee bay ka sii fiicnaan lahayd haddii dadku maanta ikhtiyaar wax uga cuni lahaayeen wixii ay cadaawayaashooda ka dhaceen ee ay heleen? Waayo, hadday sidaas ahaan lahayd reer Falastiin dhexdooda layn tan ka weyn baa ku dhici lahayd.

How much more, if only the people had eaten freely today of the spoil of their enemies which they found! For now the slaughter among the Philistines has not been great.”

31 O o maalintaas waxay reer Falastiin ku laayeen ilaa Mikmaash iyo tan iyo Ayaaloon; oo dadkuna aad bay u itaal darnaayeen.

They struck among the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. And the people were very weary.

32 O o dadkiina wixii ay dhaceen ayay ku boodeen, oo waxay qaateen ido iyo dibi iyo weylo, oo dhulkay ku qasheen, markaasaa dadkii waxay cuneen hilibkii oo dhiig leh.

The people rushed greedily upon the spoil, and took sheep and oxen and calves, and slew them on the ground; and the people ate them with the blood.

33 D abadeedna waxaa loo sheegay Saa'uul, oo lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, dadku Rabbigay ku dembaabaan, markay cunaan hilib dhiig leh. Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Aad baad u xadgudubteen, haddaba maanta ii soo giringiriya dhagax weyn.

Then they told Saul, saying, “Behold, the people are sinning against the Lord by eating with the blood.” And he said, “You have acted treacherously; roll a great stone to me today.”

34 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Dadka dhex gala, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Nin waluba halkan ha iigu keeno dibigiisa, nin walubana laxdiisa, oo halkan ku gowraca oo cuna; oo Rabbiga ha ku dembaabina intaad hilib dhiig leh cuntaan. Habeenkaas dadkii oo dhammu nin waluba wuxuu keenay dibigiisii, kolkaasay halkaas ku gowraceen.

Saul said, “Disperse yourselves among the people and say to them, ‘Each one of you bring me his ox or his sheep, and slaughter it here and eat; and do not sin against the Lord by eating with the blood.’” So all the people that night brought each one his ox with him and slaughtered it there.

35 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Rabbiga u dhisay meel allabari, oo taasuna waxay ahayd meeshii allabariga ee ugu horraysay uu Rabbiga u dhiso.

And Saul built an altar to the Lord; it was the first altar that he built to the Lord.

36 S aa'uulna wuxuu yidhi, Ina keena aynu reer Falastiin raacdaysannee oo habeennimo mirnee, oo tan iyo aroortii dhacnee, oo ninkoodna yeynan ka sii dayn. Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Wax alla wixii kula wanaagsan samee. Markaasaa wadaadkii wuxuu yidhi, Ina keena aynu Rabbiga u dhowaannee.

Then Saul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them.” And they said, “Do whatever seems good to you.” So the priest said, “Let us draw near to God here.”

37 M arkaasaa Saa'uul Ilaah talo weyddiistay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Miyaan reer Falastiin raacdaystaa? Oo ma doonaysaa inaad iyaga soo geliso gacanta reer binu Israa'iil? Laakiinse maalintaas Ilaah uma uu jawaabin.

Saul inquired of God, “Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You give them into the hand of Israel?” But He did not answer him on that day.

38 K olkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Madaxda reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammay, soo dhowaada, oo maanta dembiganu wuxuu ku jiray bal soo ogaada oo soo eega.

Saul said, “ Draw near here, all you chiefs of the people, and investigate and see how this sin has happened today.

39 W aayo, Rabbiga reer binu Israa'iil badbaadiya noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye, xataa hadduu ku jiray wiilkayga Yoonaataan, hubaal kaasu wuu dhiman doonaa. Laakiinse dadkii oo dhan laguma arag nin u jawaabay.

For as the Lord lives, who delivers Israel, though it is in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die.” But not one of all the people answered him.

40 M arkaasuu reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ku yidhi, Idinku dhan joogsada, aniga iyo wiilkayga Yoonaataanna dhanka kale ayaannu joogsanaynaa. Dadkiina waxay Saa'uul ku yidhaahdeen, Wixii kula wanaagsan samee.

Then he said to all Israel, “You shall be on one side and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side.” And the people said to Saul, “Do what seems good to you.”

41 S idaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wuxuu ku yidhi Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, Saamiga runta ah na tus. Oo wuxuu saamigii ku dhacay Yoonaataan iyo Saa'uul, laakiinse dadkii way baxeen.

Therefore, Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel, “ Give a perfect lot.” And Jonathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped.

42 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Noo saami rida aniga iyo wiilkayga Yoonaataan. Dabadeedna saamigii wuxuu ku dhacay Yoonaataan.

Saul said, “Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son.” And Jonathan was taken.

43 K olkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu Yoonaataan ku yidhi, Bal ii sheeg waxaad samaysay. Oo Yoonaataan wuu u sheegay oo ku yidhi, Xaqiiqa in yar oo malab ah ayaan ku dhadhamiyey ushii gacanta iigu jirtay caaraddeedii; haddaba waa inaan dhintaa.

Then Saul said to Jonathan, “ Tell me what you have done.” So Jonathan told him and said, “ I indeed tasted a little honey with the end of the staff that was in my hand. Here I am, I must die!”

44 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu ku yidhi, Ilaah saas iyo si ka sii daran ha sameeyo, waayo, Yoonaataan, hubaal waa inaad dhimataa.

Saul said, “ May God do this to me and more also, for you shall surely die, Jonathan.”

45 O o dadkii waxay Saa'uul ku yidhaahdeen, Yoonaataan oo badbaadadan weyn ku dhex sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil, ma inuu dhintaa? Yaanay noqon; Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaarannay ee waa inaan tin keliya oo madaxiisu dhulka ku dhicin; waayo, isagu wuxuu maanta la shaqeeyey Ilaah. Sidaasay dadkii u samatabbixiyeen Yoonaataan inuusan dhiman.

But the people said to Saul, “Must Jonathan die, who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Far from it! As the Lord lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day.” So the people rescued Jonathan and he did not die.

46 M arkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu ka hadhay reer Falastiin raacdaysigoodii; oo reer Falastiinna meeshoodii bay tageen.

Then Saul went up from pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place. Constant Warfare

47 O o markii Saa'uul qabsaday boqortooyada reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu la diriray kulli cadaawayaashiisii dhan kasta ka jiray, kuwaasoo ahaa reer Moo'aab, iyo reer Cammoon, iyo reer Edom, iyo boqorradii reer Soobaah, iyo reer Falastiin; oo meel kasta oo uu u jeestayba si xun buu ugu galay.

Now when Saul had taken the kingdom over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, the sons of Ammon, Edom, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines; and wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment.

48 O o isagu si xoog leh ayuu wax ku sameeyey, oo wuxuu laayay reer Siiqlag oo reer binu Israa'iilna wuxuu ka samatabbixiyey gacantii kuwii dhici jiray. Qoyskii Saa'uul

He acted valiantly and defeated the Amalekites, and delivered Israel from the hands of those who plundered them.

49 H addaba Saa'uul wiilashiisii waxay ahaayeen Yoonaataan iyo Yishwii, iyo Melkiishuuca; oo labadiisii gabdhoodna magacyadoodii waxay ahaayeen Meerab iyo Miikaal; tii curadda ahayd magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Meerab, tii yaraydna magaceeda waxaa la odhan jiray Miikaal.

Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan and Ishvi and Malchi-shua; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the firstborn Merab and the name of the younger Michal.

50 O o naagtii Saa'uul magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Axiino'am, oo waxay ahayd ina Axiimacas; oo sirkaalkii ciidankiisana magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Abneer, wuxuuna ahaa ina Neer, kaasoo ahaa Saa'uul adeerkiis.

The name of Saul’s wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the captain of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul’s uncle.

51 O o Qiishna wuxuu ahaa Saa'uul aabbihiis; oo Neer oo ahaa Abneer aabbihiis isna wuxuu ahaa ina Abii'eel.

Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

52 O o intii Saa'uul noolaa oo dhan dagaal kulul oo reer Falastiin ka gees ah ayaa jiray. Oo Saa'uulna markuu arko nin xoog leh, amase nin daran wuu qaadan jiray.

Now the war against the Philistines was severe all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man or any valiant man, he attached him to his staff.
