1 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu ka cararay Naayood oo Raamaah ku taal, oo intuu Yoonaataan u yimid ayuu ku yidhi, War maxaan sameeyey? Oo dembigaygu waa maxay? Oo dembiga aan aabbahaa ku sameeyey ee uu naftayda u doonayaa waa maxay?

And David fleeth from Naioth in Ramah, and cometh, and saith before Jonathan, `What have I done? what mine iniquity? and what my sin before thy father, that he is seeking my life?'

2 O o isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Yaanay noqon, adigu dhiman maysid. Aabbahay wax yar iyo wax weyn toona ma sameeyo wixii uu daaha iiga qaaday mooyaane. Maxaa aabbahay waxaas oo kale iiga qarinaya? Saas ma aha.

And he saith to him, `Far be it! thou dost not die; lo, my father doth not do anything great or small and doth not uncover mine ear; and wherefore doth my father hide from me this thing? this is not.'

3 O o haddana Daa'uud wuu dhaartay oo yidhi, Aabbahaa aad buu u og yahay inaad raalli iga tahay; oo wuxuu isyidhaahdaa, Yuusan Yoonaataan tan ogaanin waaba intaasoo uu ka calool xumaadaaye; laakiinse sida runta ah, waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga noloshiisa iyo adiga naftaada inaan aniga iyo dhimasho waxba noo dhaxayn tallaabo mooyaane.

And David sweareth again, and saith, `Thy father hath certainly known that I have found grace in thine eyes, and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved; and yet, Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, but -- as a step between me and death.'

4 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Wax alla wixii naftaadu jeceshahayba waan kuu samayn doonaa.

And Jonathan saith to David, `What doth thy soul say? -- and I do it for thee.'

5 O o Daa'uudna Yoonaataan buu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, berrito bil baa dhalanaysa, oo waa inaanan ka baaqan inaan boqorka cunto ula fadhiisto, laakiinse i sii daa, aan tagee, oo aan ilaa maalinta saddexaad duurka ku dhuuntee.

And David saith unto Jonathan, `Lo, the new moon to-morrow; and I do certainly sit with the king to eat; and thou hast sent me away, and I have been hidden in a field till the third evening;

6 O o haddii aabbahaa i waayo, waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Daa'uud aad buu fasax ii weyddiistay inuu magaaladiisii Beytlaxam ku ordo; waayo, ehelkiisii oo dhan ayaa halkaas ku bixinaya allabarigii sannadka.

if thy father at all look after me, and thou hast said, David asked earnestly of me to run to Beth-Lehem his city, for a sacrifice of the days there for all the family.

7 H adduu kugu yidhaahdo, Waa hagaag, anoo addoonkaaga ah nabad baan helayaa. Laakiinse hadduu cadhoodo, bal ogow inuu shar maaggan yahay.

If thus he say: Good; peace for thy servant; and if it be very displeasing to him -- know that the evil hath been determined by him;

8 S idaas daraaddeed anoo addoonkaaga ah ii roonow; waayo, adigu waxaad ila dhigatay axdi xagga Rabbiga ah. Laakiinse haddaan dembi galay, adiguba i dil; bal maxaad aabbahaa iigu geeynaysaa?

and thou hast done kindness, to thy servant, for into a covenant of Jehovah thou hast brought thy servant with thee; -- and if there is in me iniquity, put thou me to death; and unto thy father, why is this -- thou dost bring me in?'

9 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu yidhi, Taasu ha kaa fogaato, waayo, haddaan ogahay in aabbahay maaggan yahay inuu shar kugu sameeyo, sow kuuma soo sheegeen?

And Jonathan saith, `Far be it from thee! for I certainly do not know that the evil hath been determined by my father to come upon thee, and I do not declare it to thee.'

10 K olkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu Yoonaataan ku yidhi, Haddii aabbahaa si xun ugu jawaabo bal yaa ii soo sheegaya?

And David saith unto Jonathan, `Who doth declare to me? or what thy father doth answer thee sharply?'

11 O o Yoonaataanna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Kaalay oo ina keen aan duurka tagnee. Oo labadoodiiba waxay tageen duurka.

And Jonathan saith unto David, `Come, and we go out into the field;' and they go out both of them into the field.

12 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Rabbiga Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ahu, markhaati ha ka ahaado; berrito ama saa dambe haddaa oo kale, markii aan aabbahay soo calool baadho, hadduu wanaag kuu qabo, sow kuu soo cid diri maayo, oo daaha kaaga qaadi maayo wuxuu maaggan yahay oo dhan?

And Jonathan saith unto David, `Jehovah, God of Israel -- when I search my father, about time to-morrow the third, and lo, good towards David, and I do not then send unto thee, and have uncovered thine ear --

13 H adday aabbahay ka farxin lahayd inuu shar kugu sameeyo oo aanan daaha kaaga qaadin, oo aanan weliba ku dirin si aad nabdoonaan ugu tagtid, Rabbigu saas iyo ka sii daran ha igu sameeyo; Rabbiguna ha kuula jiro siduu aabbahay ula jiray oo kale.

thus doth Jehovah do to Jonathan, and thus doth He add; when the evil concerning thee is good to my father, then I have uncovered thine ear, and sent thee away, and thou hast gone in peace, and Jehovah is with thee, as he was with my father;

14 W aa inaanad raxmadda Rabbiga i tusin intaan noolahay oo keliya, si aanan u dhiman,

and not only while I am alive dost thou do with me the kindness of Jehovah, and I die not,

15 l aakiinse raxmaddaada waa inaanad ka gooyn reerkayga weligaa, oo xataa ma aha markii Rabbigu cadaawayaashaada ka dhammeeyo dhulka.

but thou dost not cut off thy kindness from my house unto the age, nor in Jehovah's cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.'

16 S idaasuu Yoonaataan axdi ula dhigtay reerkii Daa'uud, oo yidhi, Taas wuxuu Rabbigu ka doonayaa cadaawayaasha Daa'uud gacantooda.

And Jonathan covenanteth with the house of David, and Jehovah hath sought from the hand of the enemies of David;

17 O o Yoonaataan mar kaluu Daa'uud dhaariyey, jacaylkii uu u qabay aawadiis, waayo, wuxuu isaga u jeclaa siduu naftiisa u jeclaa oo kale.

and Jonathan addeth to cause David to swear, because he loveth him, for with the love of his own soul he hath loved him.

18 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, Berrito bil baa dhalanaysa oo waa lagu waayi doonaa, maxaa yeelay, kursigaagu wuu madhnaan doonaa.

And Jonathan saith to him, `To-morrow new moon, and thou hast been looked after, for thy seat is looked after;

19 M arkaad saddex maalmood joogto dabadeed waa inaad dhaqsataa oo aad tagtaa halkaad ku dhuumatay markii xaalkanu dhacay, oo waa inaad sii ag joogtaa dhagixii Kalategidda.

and on the third day thou dost certainly come down, and hast come in unto the place where thou wast hidden in the day of the work, and hast remained near the stone Ezel.

20 O o anna waxaan meeshaas dhinaceeda ku soo gani doonaa saddex fallaadhood, sidii anigoo calaamad ku ganaya.

`And I shoot three of the arrows at the side, sending out for myself at a mark;

21 O o bal eeg, wiil yar baan u soo diri doonaa, oo waxaan ku odhan doonaa, Tag oo fallaadhihii soo doondoon. Haddaba haddaan yarka ku idhaahdo, War fallaadhihii waa kaa sokeeyaan, soo qaad oo kaalay; waayo, nabad baa kuu jirta oo waxyeello lama arko, Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye.

and lo, I send the youth: Go, find the arrows. If I at all say to the youth, Lo, the arrows on this side of thee -- take them, -- then come thou, for peace for thee, and there is nothing; Jehovah liveth.

22 L aakiinse haddaan wiilka ku idhaahdo, War fallaadhihii waa kaa shisheeyaan; markaas iska tag, waayo, Rabbigu wuu ku diray.

And if thus I say to the young man, Lo, the arrows beyond thee, -- go, for Jehovah hath sent thee away;

23 O o xagga xaalkii aynu ka hadalnay, bal eeg, aniga iyo adiga waxaa inoo dhexeeya Rabbiga weligiisba.

as to the thing which we have spoken, I and thou, lo, Jehovah between me and thee -- unto the age.'

24 S idaasaa Daa'uud duurka ugu dhex dhuuntay, oo markii bishii dhalatay ayaa boqorkii u fadhiistay inuu wax cuno.

And David is hidden in the field, and it is the new moon, and the king sitteth down by the food to eat,

25 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku fadhiistay kursigiisii, sidii mararkii hore oo kale, kaasuna wuxuu ahaa kursigii derbiga ag yiil; oo Yoonaataanna wuu istaagay, Abneerna wuxuu dhinac fadhiistay Saa'uul, laakiinse meeshii Daa'uud way madhnayd.

and the king sitteth on his seat, as time by time, on a seat by the wall, and Jonathan riseth, and Abner sitteth at the side of Saul, and David's place is looked after.

26 H abase yeeshee Saa'uul maalintaas waxba kuma uu hadlin, waayo, wuxuu u maleeyey in wax ku dhaceen, oo wuxuu isyidhi, Ma uu nadiifsana, hubaal isagu ma uu nadiifsana.

And Saul hath not spoken anything on that day, for he said, `It an accident; he is not clean -- surely not clean.'

27 O o maalintii ka dambaysay galabtii bishu dhalatay, taasoo ahayd maalintii labaad, Daa'uud meeshiisii way madhnayd, markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu wiilkiisii Yoonaataan ku yidhi, War wiilka Yesay muxuu cuntada ugu iman waayay shalay iyo maantaba?

And it cometh to pass on the second morrow of the new moon, that David's place is looked after, and Saul saith unto Jonathan his son, `Wherefore hath the son of Jesse not come in, either yesterday or to-day, unto the food?'

28 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu Saa'uul ugu jawaabay, Daa'uud aad buu fasax ii weyddiistay inuu Beytlaxam tago,

And Jonathan answereth Saul, `David hath been earnestly asked of me unto Beth-Lehem,

29 o o wuxuu yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, i sii daa, aan tagee, waayo, ehelkayagii baa magaalada allabari ku leh, oo walaalkay baa igu amray inaan halkaas joogo, haddaba haddii aad raalli iiga tahay i sii daa aan tagee oo walaalahay soo arkee, waan ku baryayaaye. Oo sidaas daraaddeed buu u iman waayay miiska boqorka.

and he saith, Send me away, I pray thee, for a family sacrifice we have in the city, and my brother himself hath given command to me, and now, if I have found grace in thine eyes, let me go away, I pray thee, and see my brethren; therefore he hath not come unto the table of the king.'

30 M arkaasaa Saa'uul aad ugu cadhooday Yoonaataan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaagan naag qalloocan oo caasiyad ah inankeed ahow, war sow ma aan ogi inaad wiilka Yesay dooratay adoo ceeb u soo jiidaya naftaada iyo cawrada hooyadaa?

And the anger of Saul burneth against Jonathan, and he saith to him, `Son of a perverse rebellious woman! have I not known that thou art fixing on the son of Jesse to thy shame, and to the shame of the nakedness of thy mother?

31 W aayo, inta wiilka Yesay dhulka ku nool yahay, adiga iyo boqortooyadaada midna dhismi maayo. Sidaas daraaddeed u cid dir oo soo kexee, waayo, hubaal wuu dhimanayaa.

for all the days that the son of Jesse liveth on the ground thou art not established, thou and thy kingdom; and now, send and bring him unto me, for he a son of death.'

32 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu u jawaabay aabbihiis Saa'uul oo ku yidhi, Maxaa loo dilayaa? Oo bal muxuu sameeyey?

And Jonathan answereth Saul his father, and saith unto him, `Why is he put to death? what hath he done?'

33 K olkaasaa Saa'uul warankiisii ku soo gantaalay si uu u dilo. Sidaasaa Yoonaataan taas ku ogaaday in aabbihiis maagganaa inuu Daa'uud dilo.

And Saul casteth the javelin at him to smite him, and Jonathan knoweth that it hath been determined by his father to put David to death.

34 O o Yoonaataanna miiskuu kala kacay cadho kulul, oo bisha maalinteedii labaadna waxba ma cunin, waayo, wuxuu u calool xumaaday Daa'uud aawadiis, maxaa yeelay, aabbihiis baa ceeb ku sameeyey.

And Jonathan riseth from the table in the heat of anger, and hath not eaten food on the second day of the new moon, for he hath been grieved for David, for his father put him to shame.

35 O o subaxdii dambe ayuu Yoonaataan duurka tegey wakhtigii uu Daa'uud la ballamay isagoo wata wiil yar.

And it cometh to pass in the morning, that Jonathan goeth out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little youth with him.

36 M arkaasuu wiilkii yaraa ku yidhi, Orod hadda oo soo doondoon fallaadhaha aan ganayo. Oo intii yarkii sii ordayay ayuu fallaadh shishadiisa ku ganay.

And he saith to his youth, `Run, find, I pray thee, the arrows which I am shooting;' the youth is running, and he hath shot the arrow, causing to pass over him.

37 O o yarkii markuu yimid meeshii Yoonaataan fallaadhii ku soo ganay ayaa Yoonaataan ka soo daba qayliyey yarkii, oo ku yidhi, War sow fallaadhii kaama sii shishayso?

And the youth cometh unto the place of the arrow which Jonathan hath shot, and Jonathan calleth after the youth, and saith, `Is not the arrow beyond thee?'

38 O o haddana Yoonaataan wuxuu ka soo daba dhawaaqay wiilkii oo ku yidhi, War dheeree oo dhaqso oo ha joogsan. Markaasaa Yoonaataan yarkiisii soo ururiyey fallaadhihii oo sayidkiisii u yimid.

and Jonathan calleth after the youth, `Speed, haste, stand not;' and Jonathan's youth gathereth the arrows, and cometh unto his lord.

39 L aakiin yarku waxba ma ogayn, Yoonaataan iyo Daa'uud keliya ayaase xaalka ogaa.

And the youth hath not known anything, only Jonathan and David knew the word.

40 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan hubkiisii yarkii u dhiibay, oo ku yidhi, Tag, oo magaaladii gee.

And Jonathan giveth his weapons unto the youth whom he hath, and saith to him, `Go, carry into the city.'

41 O o isla markiiba kolkii yarkii tegey ayaa Daa'uud ka soo baxay meel Yoonaataan xagga koonfureed ka ahayd, markaasuu wejiga dhulka ku dhuftay oo saddex jeer sujuuday, wayna isdhunkadeen oo isla ooyeen ilaa Daa'uud sii badiyey.

The youth hath gone, and David hath risen from Ezel, at the south, and falleth on his face to the earth, and boweth himself three times, and they kiss one another, and they weep one with another, till David exerted himself;

42 M arkaasaa Yoonaataan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Nabad ku tag, maxaa yeelay, labadeennuba waxaynu isugu dhaarannay magaca Rabbiga, innagoo leh, Rabbigu ha inoo dhexeeyo aniga iyo adiga, iyo farcankayga iyo farcankaaga weligiisba. Markaasaa Daa'uud kacay oo tegey, oo Yoonaataanna magaaladuu galay.

and Jonathan saith to David, `Go in peace, in that we have sworn -- we two -- in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah is between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed -- unto the age;' and he riseth and goeth; and Jonathan hath gone in to the city.
