¹And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?

¹Markaasaa 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?

²And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die: behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will show it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so.

²Oo 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.

³And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

³Oo 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.

⁴Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever thy soul desireth, I will even do it for thee.

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

⁵And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even.

⁵Oo 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.

⁶If thy father at all miss me, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city: for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.

⁶Oo 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.

⁷If he say thus, It is well; thy servant shall have peace: but if he be very wroth, then be sure that evil is determined by him.

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

⁸Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with thee: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?

⁸Sidaas 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?

⁹And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?

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

¹⁰Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly?

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

¹¹And Jonathan said unto David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field.

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

¹²And Jonathan said unto David, O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time, or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send not unto thee, and show it thee;

¹²Markaasaa 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?

¹³The LORD do so and much more to Jonathan: but if it please my father to do thee evil, then I will show it thee, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace: and the LORD be with thee, as he hath been with my father.

¹³Hadday 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.

¹⁴And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not:

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

¹⁵But also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever: no, not when the LORD hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.

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

¹⁶So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David's enemies.

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

¹⁷And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

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

¹⁸Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow is the new moon: and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.

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

¹⁹And when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.

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

²⁰And I will shoot three arrows on the side thereof, as though I shot at a mark.

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

²¹And, behold, I will send a lad, saying, Go, find out the arrows. If I expressly say unto the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them; then come thou: for there is peace to thee, and no hurt; as the LORD liveth.

²¹Oo 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.

²²But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the LORD hath sent thee away.

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

²³And as touching the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, the LORD be between thee and me for ever.

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

²⁴So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to eat meat.

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

²⁵And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place was empty.

²⁵Markaasaa 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.

²⁶Nevertheless Saul spake not any thing that day: for he thought, Something hath befallen him, he is not clean; surely he is not clean.

²⁶Habase 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.

²⁷And it came to pass on the morrow, which was the second day of the month, that David's place was empty: and Saul said unto Jonathan his son, Wherefore cometh not the son of Jesse to meat, neither yesterday, nor to day?

²⁷Oo 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?

²⁸And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem:

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

²⁹And he said, Let me go, I pray thee; for our family hath a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he hath commanded me to be there: and now, if I have found favor in thine eyes, let me get away, I pray thee, and see my brethren. Therefore he cometh not unto the king's table.

²⁹oo 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.

³⁰Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him, Thou son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own confusion, and unto the confusion of thy mother's nakedness?

³⁰Markaasaa 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?

³¹For as long as the son of Jesse liveth upon the ground, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Wherefore now send and fetch him unto me, for he shall surely die.

³¹Waayo, 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.

³²And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto him, Wherefore shall he be slain? what hath he done?

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

³³And Saul cast a javelin at him to smite him: whereby Jonathan knew that it was determined of his father to slay David.

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

³⁴So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no meat the second day of the month: for he was grieved for David, because his father had done him shame.

³⁴Oo 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.

³⁵And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him.

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

³⁶And he said unto his lad, Run, find out now the arrows which I shoot. And as the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.

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

³⁷And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said, Is not the arrow beyond thee?

³⁷Oo 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?

³⁸And Jonathan cried after the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not. And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.

³⁸Oo 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.

³⁹But the lad knew not any thing: only Jonathan and David knew the matter.

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

⁴⁰And Jonathan gave his artillery unto his lad, and said unto him, Go, carry them to the city.

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

⁴¹And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the south, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times: and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.

⁴¹Oo 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.Markaasaa 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.

⁴²And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, The LORD be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city.

⁴²Markaasaa 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.
