¹Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay Daa'uud ugu soo shireen Xebroon, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu nahay laftaada iyo jidhkaaga.

¹And gathered are all Israel unto David to Hebron, saying, `Lo, thy bone and thy flesh [are] we;

²Waagii hore markii Saa'uul boqorka ahaa adiguu ahaa kii reer binu Israa'iil dibadda u bixin jiray oo gudaha soo gelin jiray, oo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahuna wuxuu kugu yidhi, Adigu waxaad quudin doontaa dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil, oo amiir baanad u ahaan doontaa dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil.

²even in time past, even in Saul`s being king, it is thou who art taking out and bringing in Israel, and Jehovah thy God saith to thee: Thou dost feed My people Israel, and thou art leader over My people Israel.`

³Sidaas aawadeed odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay boqorkii ugu yimaadeen Xebroon, oo Daa'uudna wuxuu iyagii axdi kula dhigtay Xebroon Rabbiga hortiisa; oo iyana waxay Daa'uud u boqreen inuu ahaado boqor reer binu Israa'iil u taliya, siduu ahaa Eraygii Rabbiga oo uu u soo dhiibay Samuu'eel.

³And all the elders of Israel come in unto the king to Hebron, and David maketh with them a covenant in Hebron before Jehovah, and they anoint David for king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by the hand of Samuel.

⁴Markaasaa Daa'uud iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay tageen Yeruusaalem (taasoo ah Yebuus), oo halkaasna waxaa joogay dadkii dalka degganaa oo ahaa reer Yebuus.

⁴And David goeth, and all Israel, to Jerusalem — it [is] Jebus — and there the Jebusite, the inhabitants of the land.

⁵Markaasaa dadkii Yebuus degganaa waxay Daa'uud ku yidhaahdeen, Adigu halkan soo geli maysid. Habase yeeshee Daa'uud waa qabsaday qalcaddii Siyoon, oo taasuna waa magaaladii Daa'uud.

⁵And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, `Thou dost not come in hither;` and David captureth the fortress of Zion — it [is] the city of David.

⁶Markaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu yidhi, Ku alla kii marka hore reer Yebuus laayaa wuxuu noqon doonaa madax iyo sirkaal. Oo waxaa markii hore baxay Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay, oo isagii ayaa waxaa laga dhigay madax.

⁶And David saith, `Whoever smiteth the Jebusite first doth become head and prince;` and go up first doth Joab son of Zeruiah and becometh head.

⁷Oo Daa'uudna qalcaddii ayuu degay, oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaa loo bixiyey magaaladii Daa'uud.

⁷And David dwelleth in the fortress, therefore they have called it, `City of David;`

⁸Oo wuxuu dhisay magaalada hareeraheedii, iyo tan iyo Millo wareeggeeda. Oo Yoo'aabna wuxuu cusboonaysiiyey magaalada inteedii kale.

⁸and he buildeth the city round about, from Millo, and unto the circumference, and Joab restoreth the rest of the city.

⁹Oo Daa'uudna aad iyo aad buu u sii xoogaystay, waayo, waxaa isaga la jiray Rabbigii ciidammada.

⁹And David goeth, going on and becoming great, and Jehovah of Hosts [is] with him.

¹⁰Haddaba kuwanu waa kuwii u horreeyey ee nimankii xoogga badnaa oo Daa'uud haystay, kuwaasoo ismuujiyey inay isaga iyo boqortooyadiisa aad iyo aad ula jiraan si ay boqor uga dhigtaan iyadoo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu ay la wada jiraan, siduu ahaa Eraygii Rabbiga oo reer binu Israa'iil ku saabsanaa.

¹⁰And these [are] heads of the mighty ones whom David hath, who are strengthening themselves with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to cause him to reign, according to the word of Jehovah, over Israel.

¹¹Oo tanuna waa tiradii raggii xoogga badnaa oo Daa'uud haystay: Yaashaabcaam oo ahaa reer Xakmoonii oo ahaa ka ugu horreeya soddonka, isagu wuxuu warankiisa u qaaday saddex boqol oo nin, oo isku mar buuna laayay.

¹¹And this [is] an account of the mighty ones whom David hath: Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite [is] head of the thirty; he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, at one time.

¹²Oo isaga dabadiisna waxaa jiray Elecaasaar ina Doodoo, oo ahaa reer Axoo'ax, oo isna wuxuu ahaa saddexdii nin oo xoogga badnaa midkood.

¹²And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, he [is] among the three mighty;

¹³Oo isagu wuxuu Daa'uud la joogay Fasdammiim, oo halkaasna waxaa dagaal ugu soo ururay reer Falastiin, meeshaas oo ahayd dhul beero ah oo shaciir ka buuxo, oo dadkiina way ka carareen reer Falastiin hortooda.

¹³he hath been with David in Pas-Dammim, and the Philistines have been gathered there to battle, and a portion of the field is full of barley, and the people have fled from the face of the Philistines,

¹⁴Oo beertii bay isdhex taageen oo daafaceen, wayna laayeen reer Falastiin, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu iyagii ku badbaadiyey guul weyn.

¹⁴and they station themselves in the midst of the portion, and deliver it, and smite the Philistines, and Jehovah saveth — a great salvation.

¹⁵Oo soddonkii ugu horreeyey saddex ka mid ah ayaa hoos ugu dhaadhacay dhagixii weynaa ee Daa'uud joogay, oo waxay galeen godkii Cadullaam, oo ciidankii reer Falastiinna waxay soo degeen dooxadii Refaa'iim.

¹⁵And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the valley of Rephaim,

¹⁶Oo markaas Daa'uud wuxuu ku jiray dhufayskii, oo ciidankii reer Falastiin xeradooduna waxay ahayd Beytlaxam.

¹⁶and David [is] then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,

¹⁷Oo Daa'uudna intuu biyo u xiisooday ayuu yidhi, Waxaan jeclaan lahaa in biyo layga siiyo ceelka Beytlaxam, ee iridda ku ag yaal!

¹⁷and David longeth, and saith, `Who doth give me to drink water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that [is] at the gate!`

¹⁸Markaasaa saddexdii ayaa dhex maray ciidankii reer Falastiin, oo waxay biyo ka soo dhaamiyeen ceelkii Beytlaxam ee iridda ku ag yiil, oo intay soo qaadeen ayay Daa'uud u keeneen, laakiinse Daa'uud wuu diiday inuu cabbo biyahaas, Rabbiguuse u daadshay.

¹⁸And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that [is] at the gate, and bear and bring in unto David, and David hath not been willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,

¹⁹Oo wuxuu yidhi, Anigu inaan saas yeelo Ilaahaygu ha ii diido, ma waxaan cabbaa dhiiggii nimankan naftooda biimeeyey? Waayo, iyagu biyahan waxay ku keeneen naftoodii oo halis ku jirta. Sidaas daraaddeed wuu diiday inuu cabbo. Oo saddexdii nin oo xoogga badnaana saasay yeeleen.

¹⁹and saith, `Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; the blood of these men do I drink with their lives? for with their lives they have brought it;` and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] did the three mighty ones.

²⁰Oo saddexdoodana waxaa madax u ahaa Abiishay oo ahaa Yoo'aab walaalkiis, waayo, isagu wuxuu warankiisa u qaaday saddex boqol oo nin, wuuna laayay, saddexdiina magac buu ku lahaa.

²⁰And Abishai brother of Joab, he hath been head of the three: and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, and hath a name among three.

²¹Oo isagu labada kaleba wuu ka ciso badnaa, oo waxaa looga dhigay sirkaal, habase yeeshee saddexdii hore ma uu gaadhin.

²¹Of the three by the two he is honoured, and becometh their head; and unto the [first] three he hath not come.

²²Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaac, oo uu dhalay nin xoog weyn oo reer Qabse'eel ahu, kaasoo sameeyey falimo waaweyn wuxuu dilay labadii wiil oo Arii'eel kii reer Moo'aab, oo haddana wuu tegay oo libaax buu god ku dhex dilay wakhtiga barafka,

²²Benaiah son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valour, of great deeds, from Kabzeel: he hath smitten the two lion-like Moabites, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit, in the day of snow.

²³oo wuxuu kaloo dilay nin Masri ah oo ahaa nin aad u dheer, oo dhererkiisuna wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun, oo Masriguna wuxuu gacanta ku haystay waran le'eg dharsameeyaha looxiisa, oo isna wuxuu ula tegey ul, oo warankii ka dhufsaday gacantii Masriga, oo isagii ku dilay warankiisii.

²³And he hath smitten the man, the Egyptian — a man of measure, five by the cubit — and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear like a beam of weavers, and he goeth down unto him with a rod, and taketh violently away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slayeth him with his own spear.

²⁴Oo waxyaalahan waxaa sameeyey Benaayaah oo ahaa ina Yehooyaadaac, oo isna saddexdii nin ee xoogga badnaa magac buu ku lahaa.

²⁴These [things] hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among the three mighty ones.

²⁵Oo bal eeg, isagu wuu ka ciso badnaa soddonka, laakiinse ma uu gaadhin saddexdii hore, oo Daa'uudna wuxuu isaga madax uga dhigay lataliyayaashiisii.

²⁵Of the thirty, lo, he [is] honoured, and unto the [first] three he hath not come, and David setteth him over his guard.

²⁶Oo weliba raggii ciidammada ku jiray oo xoogga badnaa waxay ahaayeen Casaaheel oo Yoo'aab walaalkiis ahaa, iyo Elxaanaan oo ahaa ina Doodoo oo reer Beytlaxam ahaa,
