¹Oo wakhtigaas reer Falastiin ciidammadoodii oo dhan dagaal bay u soo urursadeen inay reer binu Israa'iil la diriraan. Aakiishna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Ogow inaad adiga iyo raggaaguba dagaalka ii raacaysaan.

¹And it cometh to pass in those days, that the Philistines gather their camps for the war, to fight against Israel, and Achish saith unto David, `Thou dost certainly know that with me thou dost go out into the camp, thou and thy men.`

²Oo Daa'uudna wuxuu Aakiish ku yidhi, Hubaal waad ogaan doontaa waxa anoo addoonkaaga ah aan samayn doono. Oo Aakiishna wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Taas aawadeed mid madaxayga weligii ilaaliya ayaan kaa dhigayaa.

²And David saith unto Achish, `Therefore — thou dost know that which thy servant dost do.` And Achish saith unto David, `Therefore — keeper of my head I do appoint thee all the days.`

³Oo Samuu'eelna mar hore wuu dhintay, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna way u baroorteen, waxayna ku aaseen Raamaah taasoo ahayd magaaladiisii. Saa'uulna wuu wada eryay kuwii ruuxaanta lahaa iyo saaxiriintii oo dhan, oo dalka wuu ka wada saaray.

³And Samuel hath died, and all Israel mourn for him, and bury him in Ramah, even in his city, and Saul hath turned aside those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.

⁴Oo reer Falastiinna way isa soo wada urursadeen, oo Shuuneem soo degeen; Saa'uulna wuxuu soo wada urursaday reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo iyana waxay soo degeen Gilboca.

⁴And the Philistines are gathered, and come in, and encamp in Shunem, and Saul gathereth all Israel, and they encamp in Gilboa,

⁵Saa'uulna markuu ciidankii reer Falastiin arkay ayuu baqay, aad buuna u gariiray.

⁵and Saul seeth the camp of the Philistines, and feareth, and his heart trembleth greatly,

⁶Oo Saa'uulna markuu Rabbiga wax weyddiiyey, Rabbigu uma uu jawaabin, oo riyooyin iyo Uuriim iyo nebiyo midnaba uguma uu jawaabin.

⁶and Saul asketh at Jehovah, and Jehovah hath not answered him, either by dreams, or by Urim, or by prophets.

⁷Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, War ii doona naag ruuxaan leh, aan u tago oo wax weyddiiyee. Markaasaa addoommadiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Naag ruuxaan leh baa Ceyn Door joogta.

⁷And Saul saith to his servants, `Seek for me a woman possessing a familiar spirit, and I go unto her, and inquire of her;` and his servants say unto him, `Lo, a woman possessing a familiar spirit in En-dor.`

⁸Kolkaasaa Saa'uul si kale iska dhigay, dhar kalena wuu qaatay, wuuna tegey, isagoo laba nin la socda, oo waxay naagtii u yimaadeen goor habeennimo ah. Markaasuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ruuxaanta iila hadal, oo ii soo kici ku alla kii aan kuu magacaabo.

⁸And Saul disguiseth himself and putteth on other garments, and goeth, he and two of the men with him, and they come in unto the woman by night, and he saith, `Divine, I pray thee, to me by the familiar spirit, and cause to come up to me him whom I say unto thee.`

⁹Naagtiina waxay ku tidhi, Bal eeg, waad og tahay Saa'uul wuxuu sameeyey, iyo siduu dalka uga saaray kuwii ruuxaanta lahaa, iyo saaxiriintii oo dhanba. Haddaba bal maxaad dabin iigu dhigaysaa si aan u dhinto?

⁹And the woman saith unto him, `Lo, thou hast known that which Saul hath done, that he hath cut off those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land; and why art thou laying a snare for my soul — to put me to death?`

¹⁰Markaasaa Saa'uul Rabbiga ugu dhaartay, oo ku yidhi, Rabbiga noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye inaan waxan innaba lagugu ciqaabayn.

¹⁰And Saul sweareth to her by Jehovah, saying, `Jehovah liveth, punishment doth not meet thee for this thing.`

¹¹Dabadeedna naagtii waxay tidhi, Haddaba yaan kuu soo kiciyaa? Wuxuu isna ku yidhi, Samuu'eel ii soo kici.

¹¹And the woman saith, `Whom do I bring up to thee?` and he saith, `Samuel — bring up to me.`

¹²Oo naagtii markay Samuu'eel aragtay ayay cod weyn ku qaylisay, oo Saa'uul la hadashay oo tidhi, War maxaad ii khiyaanaysay? Waayo, Saa'uul baad tahay.

¹²And the woman seeth Samuel, and crieth with a loud voice, and the woman speaketh unto Saul, saying, `Why hast thou deceived me — and thou Saul?`

¹³Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu ku yidhi, Ha cabsan ee maxaad aragtaa? Naagtiina waxay Saa'uul ku tidhi, Waxaan arkaa ilaahyo dhulka ka soo baxaya.

¹³And the king saith to her, `Do not fear; for what hast thou seen?` and the woman saith unto Saul, `Gods I have seen coming up out of the earth.`

¹⁴Isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Muxuu u eg yahay? Markaasay tidhi, Waxaa soo baxaya nin oday ah oo huwis huwan. Kolkaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu ogaaday inuu kaasu Samuu'eel yahay, wejiguuna dhulka saaray, wuuna u sujuuday.

¹⁴And he saith to her, `What [is] his form?` and she saith, `An aged man is coming up, and he [is] covered with an upper robe;` and Saul knoweth that he [is] Samuel, and boweth — face to thee earth — and doth obeisance.

¹⁵Markaasaa Samuu'eel Saa'uul ku yidhi, War maxaad ii soo dhibtay oo ii soo kicisay? Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Anigu aad baan u dhibbanahay; waayo, reer Falastiin baa ila dagaallama, oo Ilaahna waa iga tegey, oo marna iima jawaabo, oo nebiyo iyo riyooyin midna igulama hadlo, sidaas daraaddeed ayaan kuugu yeedhay, inaad i ogeysiisid waxaan sameeyo.

¹⁵And Samuel saith unto Saul, `Why hast thou troubled me, to bring me up?` And Saul saith, `I have great distress, and the Philistines are fighting against me, God hath turned aside from me, and hath not answered me any more, either by the hand of the prophets, or by dreams; and I call for thee to let me know what I do.`

¹⁶Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, War adoo og in Rabbigu kaa tegey oo uu col kuu noqday, maxaad wax ii weyddiinaysaa?

¹⁶And Samuel saith, `And why dost thou ask me, and Jehovah hath turned aside from thee, and is thine enemy?

¹⁷Oo Rabbiguna wuxuu samaystay wixii uu iga hadlay, oo Rabbiguna boqortooyadii gacantaada wuu ka dillaaciyey, oo wuxuu siiyey deriskaaga kaaso ah Daa'uud.

¹⁷And Jehovah doth for Himself as He hath spoken by my hand, and Jehovah rendeth the kingdom out of thy hand, and giveth it to thy neighbour — to David.

¹⁸Maxaa yeelay, waad addeeci weyday Rabbiga codkiisii, cadhadiisii weynaydna Camaaleq waad ku dili weyday, oo sidaas daraaddeed baa Rabbigu maanta waxan kuugu sameeyey.

¹⁸Because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, nor didst the fierceness of His anger on Amalek — therefore this thing hath Jehovah done to thee this day;

¹⁹Oo weliba Rabbigu wuxuu adiga iyo reer binu Israa'iilba u gacangelin doonaa reer Falastiin. Berrito adiga iyo wiilashaaduba anigaad ila joogi doontaan. Oo Rabbiguna wuxuu ciidanka reer binu Israa'iil ku ridi doonaa gacanta reer Falastiin.

¹⁹yea, Jehovah giveth also Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow thou and thy sons [are] with me; also the camp of Israel doth Jehovah give into the hand of the Philistines.`

²⁰Markaasaa Saa'uul haddiiba kulligiis dhulka ku dhacay, oo aad buu u cabsaday erayadii Samuu'eel aawadood, oo itaalna kuma jirin, waayo, waxba ma uu cunin maalintii oo dhan iyo habeenkii oo dhanba.

²⁰And Saul hasteth and falleth — the fulness of his stature — to the earth, and feareth greatly because of the words of Samuel; also power was not in him, for he had not eaten bread all the day, and all the night.

²¹Markaasaa naagtii u timid Saa'uul oo aragtay inuu aad u naxsanaa, oo waxay ku tidhi, Bal eeg, anoo addoontaada ah codkaagii baan maqlay, oo anna naftaydii baan biimeeyey, erayadii aad igula hadashayna waan maqlay.

²¹And the woman cometh in unto Saul, and seeth that he hath been greatly troubled, and saith unto him, `Lo, thy maid-servant hath hearkened to thy voice, and I put my soul in my hand, and I obey thy words which thou hast spoken unto me;

²²Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, bal adna codkayga maqal anoo addoontaada ah, oo in yar oo kibis ah aan hortaada dhigo, oo adna cun si markaad tagtid aad xoog u yeelatid.

²²and now, hearken, I pray thee, also thou, to the voice of thy maid-servant, and I set before thee a morsel of bread, and eat, and there is in thee power when thou goest in the way.`

²³Laakiinse wuu diiday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Anigu waxba cuni maayo. Laakiinse addoommadiisii ayaa naagtii kula qasbay; markaasuu codkoodii yeelay. Oo intuu dhulkii ka kacay ayuu sariirtii ku fadhiistay.

²³And he refuseth, and saith, `I do not eat;` and his servants urge on him, and also the woman, and he hearkeneth to their voice, and riseth from the earth, and sitteth on the bed.

²⁴Oo naagtuna waxay guriga ku haysatay weyl shilis, kolkaasay haddiiba degdegtay, oo soo qashay, oo haddana bur soo qaadatay oo cajiintay, oo waxay ka dubtay kibis aan khamiir lahayn.Dabadeedna waxay soo hor dhigtay Saa'uul iyo addoommadiisii, wayna cuneen. Kolkaasay kaceen, oo isla habeenkii bay tageen.

²⁴And the woman hath a calf of the stall in the house, and she hasteth and slaughtereth it, and taketh flour, and kneadeth, and baketh it unleavened things,

²⁵Dabadeedna waxay soo hor dhigtay Saa'uul iyo addoommadiisii, wayna cuneen. Kolkaasay kaceen, oo isla habeenkii bay tageen.

²⁵and bringeth nigh before Saul, and before his servants, and they eat, and rise, and go on, during that night.
