¹And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.

¹Oo markii uu dhammeeyey lahadliddii uu Saa'uul la hadlayay ayay naftii Yoonaataan ku xidhantay naftii Daa'uud, oo Yoonaataan wuxuu isaga u jeclaaday sidii naftiisa.

²And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.

²Oo maalintaasaa Saa'uul qaatay oo mar dambena uma uu oggolaan inuu gurigii aabbihiis tago.

³Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.

³Markaasaa Yoonaataan iyo Daa'uud axdi dhigteen, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu isaga u jeclaaday sidii naftiisii.

⁴And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.

⁴Markaasaa Yoonaataan iska bixiyey khamiiskiisii uu huwanaa, oo Daa'uud siiyey, iyo dharkiisii, iyo xataa seeftiisii, iyo qaansadiisii, iyo suundhabarkiisii.

⁵And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

⁵Oo Daa'uudna meel alla meeshii Saa'uul u diro ayuu tegi jiray, wuuna ku guulaysan jiray; oo Saa'uulna wuxuu madax uga dhigay raggii dagaalka, oo taasuna way la wanaagsanayd dadkii oo dhan iyo addoommadii Saa'uul oo dhanba.

⁶And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of music.

⁶Oo markay yimaadeen, markii Daa'uud ka soo noqday layntii reer Falastiin, dumarkii baa waxay ka yimaadeen magaalooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan si ay Boqor Saa'uul uga hor tagaan iyagoo gabyaya oo cayaaraya, oo faraxsan oo daf iyo alaabtii muusikada tumaya.

⁷And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.

⁷Oo dumarkiina midba midda kalay gabay u celisay, iyagoo cayaaraya, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Saa'uul wuxuu laayay kumanyaalkiisii, Daa'uudna wuxuu laayay tobanyaalkiisii kun.

⁸And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?

⁸Saa'uulna aad buu u cadhooday, oo hadalkaas ayuu ka xumaaday, wuxuuna yidhi, Waxay Daa'uud ku sheegeen tobanyaal kun, laakiinse aniga waxay igu sheegeen kumanyaal; oo maxaa intaas ka badan oo uu heli lahaa boqortooyada mooyaane?

⁹And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.

⁹Oo Saa'uulna maalintaas dabadeed Daa'uud si xun buu u fiirin jiray.

¹⁰And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.

¹⁰Oo subaxdii dambe ruux xun oo xag Ilaah ka yimid ayaa ku soo degay Saa'uul, oo sidii nebi ayuu wax ugu sii sheegay guriga dhexdiisa. Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu gacanta ku dhuftay kataarad siduu maalin walba yeeli jiray; oo Saa'uulna gacantuu ku haystay warankiisii.

¹¹And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice.

¹¹Oo wuxuu yidhi, Daa'uud derbigaan ku qodbi doonaa. Markaasaa Saa'uul warankii ku soo ganay. Daa'uudna laba jeer buu ka gabbaday.

¹²And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul.

¹²Oo Saa'uulna Daa'uud buu ka cabsanayay, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigaa isaga la jiray, wuuna ka tegey Saa'uul.

¹³Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.

¹³Sidaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wuu iska fogeeyey isagii, oo wuxuu ka dhigay sirkaal kun u taliya; isaguna dadka hortiisuu ka bixi jiray, soona geli jiray.

¹⁴And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.

¹⁴Oo Daa'uudna wuu ku guulaysan jiray socodkiisa oo dhan, Rabbiguna wuu la jiray.

¹⁵Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.

¹⁵Oo Saa'uulna markuu arkay in Daa'uud aad u guulaystay ayuu la yaabay.

¹⁶But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.

¹⁶Laakiinse reer binu Israa'iil iyo reer Yahuudah oo dhanba Daa'uud aad bay u jeclaayeen; waayo, isagu hortooduu ka bixi jiray, soona geli jiray.

¹⁷And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.

¹⁷Oo Saa'uulna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Bal eeg, gabadhayda weyn oo Meerab ah ayaan kuu siinayaa inaad guursato; laakiinse waa inaad ii xoog badnaato oo aad dagaallada Rabbigana dirirto. Waayo, Saa'uul wuxuu isyidhi, Yuusan gacantayda ku bixin, laakiinse gacanta reer Falastiin ha ku baxo.

¹⁸And David said unto Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son in law to the king?

¹⁸Markaasaa Daa'uudna wuxuu Saa'uul ku yidhi, War yaan ahay, oo noloshaydu waa maxay, amase reer aabbahay xaggay ka joogaan reer binu Israa'iil, inaan ahaado wiilkii boqorku soddogga u ahaa?

¹⁹But it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given unto Adriel the Meholathite to wife.

¹⁹Laakiinse wakhtigii Saa'uul gabadhiisii Meerab ahayd Daa'uud loo guurin lahaa, waxaa la siiyey oo loo guuriyey Cadrii'eel oo reer Mexolaad ahaa.

²⁰And Michal Saul's daughter loved David: and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.

²⁰Oo gabadhii Saa'uul oo Miikaal ahayd ayaa Daa'uud jeclaatay. Markaasaa Saa'uul loo sheegay, oo taasuna isagii way ka farxisay.

²¹And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Wherefore Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son in law in the one of the twain.

²¹Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu isyidhi, Dabin ha ku noqotee, isaga waan siin iyada, si ay gacanta reer Falastiin isaga gees uga ahaato. Sidaas aawadeed Saa'uul wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Adigu maanta waxaad mar labaad noqonaysaa wiilkii aan soddogga u ahaa.

²²And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son in law.

²²Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu addoommadiisii ku amray oo ku yidhi, Daa'uud hoos ahaan ula hadla, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Bal eeg, boqorku wuu kugu farxay, oo addoommadiisa oo dhammuna way ku jecel yihiin; haddaba sidaas daraaddeed boqorku soddog ha kuu noqdo.

²³And Saul's servants spake those words in the ears of David. And David said, Seemeth it to you a light thing to be a king's son in law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?

²³Oo addoommadii Saa'uulna erayadaas waxay u sheegeen Daa'uud. Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu yidhi, Ma waxay idinla tahay inay fudud dahay inaan ahaado wiilkii boqorku soddogga u ahaa, anigoo ah nin miskiin ah oo weliba derejo yar?

²⁴And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spake David.

²⁴Oo Saa'uul addoommadiisiina way u soo sheegeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Daa'uud sidaasuu u hadlay.

²⁵And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king desireth not any dowry, but an hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

²⁵Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu yidhi, Sidan Daa'uud ku dhaha, Boqorku waxba yarad kaa dooni maayo, boqol buuryo oo reer Falastiin oo boqorka cadaawayaashiisa looga aarguto mooyaane. Haddaba Saa'uul wuxuu damcay inuu Daa'uud u gacangeliyo reer Falastiin.

²⁶And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son in law: and the days were not expired.

²⁶Oo addoommadiisiina markay Daa'uud erayadaas u soo sheegeen ayaa Daa'uud aad ugu farxay inuu ahaado wiilkii boqorku soddogga u ahaa. Maalmahaasuna ma ay dhammaan;

²⁷Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full tale to the king, that he might be the king's son in law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.

²⁷markaasaa Daa'uud kacay oo tegey isagii iyo raggiisiiba, oo waxay reer Falastiin ka soo laayeen laba boqol oo nin; markaasaa Daa'uud buuryadoodii keenay, oo boqorkii bay siiyeen tiradoodii oo dhan, si Daa'uud u noqdo wiilkii boqorku soddogga u ahaa. Saa'uulna wuu siiyey gabadhiisii Miikaal inay naag u noqoto.

²⁸And Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal Saul's daughter loved him.

²⁸Oo Saa'uulna wuu arkay wuuna ogaa in Rabbigu Daa'uud la jiro; oo Saa'uul gabadhiisii Miikaal ahaydna Daa'uud bay caashaqday.

²⁹And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul became David's enemy continually.

²⁹Saa'uulna aad buu uga sii cabsanayay Daa'uud; oo Saa'uulna had iyo goorba Daa'uud cadow buu u ahaa.Markaasaa waxaa soo baxay amiirradii reer Falastiin; oo sidii ay marar badan u soo bixi jireen, ayaa Daa'uud ka sii guul badnaa addoommadii Saa'uul oo dhan; oo sidaas aawadeed magiciisii aad iyo aad buu caan u noqday.

³⁰Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it came to pass, after they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by.

³⁰Markaasaa waxaa soo baxay amiirradii reer Falastiin; oo sidii ay marar badan u soo bixi jireen, ayaa Daa'uud ka sii guul badnaa addoommadii Saa'uul oo dhan; oo sidaas aawadeed magiciisii aad iyo aad buu caan u noqday.
