1Yahweh said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided a king for myself among his sons.”
1Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, War ilaa goormaad Saa'uul u ooyaysaa, adigoo og inaan u diiday inuu reer binu Israa'iil boqor u ahaado? Haddaba geeskaaga saliid ka buuxso oo tag, waxaan kuu dirayaa Yesay oo ah reer Beytlaxam; waayo, boqor baan wiilashiisa ka dhex doortay.
2Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.” Yahweh said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, I have come to sacrifice to Yahweh.
2Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu yidhi, Sidee baan u tegi karaa? Waayo, haddii Saa'uul taas maqlo wuu i dili doonaa. Oo Rabbiguna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaad kaxaysataa qaalin lo' ah, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Waxaan u imid inaan Rabbiga allabari u bixiyo.
3Call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do. You shall anoint to me him whom I name to you.”
3Oo Yesay allabariga ugu yeedh, waanan ku tusi doonaa waxaad samayn doonto; oo waxaad ii subagtaa kii aan kuu magacaabo.
4Samuel did that which Yahweh spoke, and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling, and said, “Do you come peaceably?”
4Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu Rabbigu kala hadlay ayuu sameeyey, wuxuuna yimid Beytlaxam. Oo odayaashii magaaladuna way ka hor tageen, iyagoo gariiraya, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Nabad ma u timid?
5He said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to Yahweh. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” He sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
5Markaasuu yidhi, Haah, nabad baan u imid, waxaanan u imid inaan Rabbiga allabari u bixiyo. Haddaba isa soo daahiriya, oo kaalaya, meesha allabariga ii raaca. Markaasuu wuxuu daahirshay Yesay iyo wiilashiisii, dabadeedna meeshii allabariga buu ugu yeedhay.
6It happened, when they had come, that he looked at Eliab, and said, “Surely Yahweh’s anointed is before him.”
6Oo markay yimaadeen wuxuu fiiriyey Elii'aab, oo yidhi, Hubaal kii Rabbigu subkaday ayaa hortiisa jooga.
7But Yahweh said to Samuel, “Don’t look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for I see not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.”
7Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Ha fiirin soojeedkiisa, ama dhererkiisa, maxaa yeelay, waan diiday isaga. Rabbigu wax uma arko sida dadku wax u arko, waayo, dadku wuxuu fiiriyaa muuqashada dusha, Rabbiguse qalbiguu fiiriyaa.
8Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, “Neither has Yahweh chosen this one.”
8Markaasaa Yesay u yeedhay Abiinaadaab, oo soo mariyey Samuu'eel hortiisa, Samuu'eelna wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu kanna ma uu dooran.
9Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. He said, “Neither has Yahweh chosen this one.”
9Oo haddana Yesay wuu soo hor mariyey Shammaah. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu kanna ma dooran.
10Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. Samuel said to Jesse, “Yahweh has not chosen these.”
10Yesayna wuxuu Samuu'eel soo hor mariyey toddoba wiilashiisii ka mid ah. Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, Rabbigu kuwan ma dooran.
11Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all your children here?” He said, “There remains yet the youngest, and behold, he is keeping the sheep.” Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and get him; for we will not sit down until he comes here.”
11Samuu'eelna wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, War carruurtaadii halkan ma wada joogaan? Markaasuu yidhi, Weli waxaa hadhay kii ugu yaraa, oo idahuu ilaalinayaa. Oo haddana Samuu'eel wuxuu Yesay ku yidhi, Cid u dir oo keen; waayo, innagu fadhiisan mayno jeeruu halkan yimaado.
12He sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful face, and goodly to look on. Yahweh said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is he.”
12Markaasuu u cid diray, oo soo geliyey. Oo isna wuxuu ahaa mid cas, oo soojeed qurxoon, oo midabkiisuna aad u wanaagsan yahay. Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Samuu'eel ku yidhi, Kac, oo subag, waayo, kanu waa isagii.
13Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers: and the Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
13Markaasaa Samuu'eel qaaday geeskii saliiddu ku jirtay, wuuna ku subkay isagoo walaalihiis dhex jooga; oo maalintaas intii ka dambaysay Ruuxii Rabbigu aad buu ugu soo degay Daa'uud. Dabadeedna Samuu'eel wuu kacay, oo Raamaah buu tegey.
14Now the Spirit of Yahweh departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Yahweh troubled him.
14Haddaba Ruuxii Rabbigu Saa'uul wuu ka tegey, oo ruux shar leh oo xagga Rabbiga ka yimid ayaa dhibay isagii.
15Saul’s servants said to him, “See now, an evil spirit from God troubles you.
15Markaasaa Saa'uul addoommadiisii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, haatan waxaa ku dhibaya ruux shar leh oo xagga Ilaah ka yimid.
16Let our lord now command your servants who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. It shall happen, when the evil spirit from God is on you, that he shall play with his hand, and you shall be well.”
16Sayidkayagow, nagu amar annagoo ah addoommadaada ku hor jooga inaannu kuu doondoonno nin aad kataaradda u yaqaan; oo markuu ruuxa sharka leh ee xagga Ilaah ka yimid kugu soo dego, ayuu kataaradda garaaci doonaa, waanad bogsan doontaa.
17Saul said to his servants, “Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me.”
17Markaasaa Saa'uul wuxuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, Ii doona nin aad u yaqaan, oo ii keena.
18Then one of the young men answered, and said, “Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a comely person; and Yahweh is with him.”
18Dabadeedna raggii dhallinyarada ahaa midkood ayaa ku jawaabay oo yidhi, Waxaan arkay Yesayga reer Beytlaxam wiil uu dhalay oo aad u yaqaan sida kataaradda lagu dhufto oo ah nin xoog leh oo dagaalyahan ah, codkarna ah, oo suurad qurxoon, oo weliba Rabbiguna wuu la jiraa.
19Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, “Send me David your son, who is with the sheep.”
19Sidaas daraaddeed Saa'uul wargeeyayaal buu u diray Yesay oo ku yidhi, Wiilkaaga Daa'uud oo idaha ilaalinaya ii soo dir.
20Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by David his son to Saul.
20Markaasaa Yesay wuxuu soo kexeeyey dameer ku raran kibis iyo sibraar khamri ah, iyo orgi yar, oo Saa'uul buu u diray. Wuxuuna ugu sii dhiibay wiilkiisii Daa'uud.
21David came to Saul, and stood before him. He loved him greatly; and he became his armor bearer.
21Markaasaa Daa'uud Saa'uul u yimid, oo hortiisuu soo istaagay, oo isna aad buu u jeclaaday Daa'uud, oo wuxuu Saa'uul u noqday kii hubka u siday.
22Saul sent to Jesse, saying, “Please let David stand before me; for he has found favor in my sight.”
22Kolkaasaa Saa'uul farriin u diray Yesay oo ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ii daa Daa'uud, hortayda ha joogee, waayo, isagu aad buu iiga farxiyey.Oo markuu ruuxii sharka lahaa ee xagga Ilaah ka yimid Saa'uul ku soo degay ayaa Daa'uud qaatay kataaraddiisii, oo garaacay, dabadeedna Saa'uul wuu qaboobay, wuuna bogsaday, oo ruuxii sharka lahaana waa ka tegey.
23It happened, when the spirit from God was on Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
23Oo markuu ruuxii sharka lahaa ee xagga Ilaah ka yimid Saa'uul ku soo degay ayaa Daa'uud qaatay kataaraddiisii, oo garaacay, dabadeedna Saa'uul wuu qaboobay, wuuna bogsaday, oo ruuxii sharka lahaana waa ka tegey.
