¹The men of Kiriath Jearim came, and fetched up the ark of Yahweh, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of Yahweh.

¹Markaasaa waxaa yimid dadkii reer Qiryad Yecaariim, oo waxay qaateen sanduuqii Rabbiga, oo waxay soo geliyeen gurigii Abiinaadaab ee buurta ku yiil, oo waxay quduus ka dhigeen wiilkiisii Elecaasaar inuu hayo sanduuqii Rabbiga.

²It happened, from the day that the ark stayed in Kiriath Jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after Yahweh.

²Oo ilaa maalintii sanduuqu yiil Qiryad Yecaariim wakhtigu waa dheeraa, maxaa yeelay, waxay ahayd labaatan sannadood, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna Rabbiga ayay ka daba barooran jireen.

³Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you do return to Yahweh with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts to Yahweh, and serve him only; and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.”

³Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu la hadlay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaad qalbigiinna oo dhan Rabbiga ugu soo noqotaan, de haddaba dhexdiinna ka fogeeya ilaahyada qalaad iyo Cashtarod, oo qalbiyadiinna u diyaariya Rabbiga oo keligiis u adeega; oo isna wuu idinka samatabbixin doonaa gacanta reer Falastiin.

⁴Then the children of Israel removed the Baals and the Ashtaroth, and served Yahweh only.

⁴Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil iska fogeeyeen Bacaliim iyo Cashtarod, oo waxay u adeegeen Rabbiga keliya.

⁵Samuel said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray for you to Yahweh.”

⁵Markaasaa Samuu'eel wuxuu yidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan Misfaah ku soo wada ururiya, oo anna Rabbigaan idiin baryayaa.

⁶They gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before Yahweh, and fasted on that day, and said there, “We have sinned against Yahweh.” Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah.

⁶Markaasay dhammaantood Misfaah ku soo wada urureen, oo intay biyo soo dhaamiyeen ayay Rabbiga hortiisa ku shubeen, oo maalintaasna way soomeen, oo waxay halkaas ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu ku dembaabnay Rabbiga. Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil ku xukumi jiray Misfaah.

⁷When the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. When the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.

⁷Oo reer Falastiinna markay maqleen in reer binu Israa'iil Misfaah ku urursan yihiin ayaa madaxdii reer Falastiin u kaceen inay ku soo duulaan reer binu Israa'iil. Oo reer binu Israa'iilna markay taas maqleen ayay aad uga cabsadeen reer Falastiin.

⁸The children of Israel said to Samuel, “Don’t cease to cry to Yahweh our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.”

⁸Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay Samuu'eel ku yidhaahdeen, Ha joojin inaad noo baridid Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ahu inuu naga badbaadiyo gacanta reer Falastiin.

⁹Samuel took a suckling lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt offering to Yahweh: and Samuel cried to Yahweh for Israel; and Yahweh answered him.

⁹Markaasaa Samuu'eel soo kaxaystay wan yar oo caanonuug ah oo wuxuu Rabbiga ugu bixiyey allabari la gubo dhammaantiis; markaasaa Samuu'eel Rabbiga u baryay reer binu Israa'iil aawadood; oo Rabbiguna wuu ka aqbalay Samuu'eel.

¹⁰As Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel; but Yahweh thundered with a great thunder on that day on the Philistines, and confused them; and they were struck down before Israel.

¹⁰Oo intii Samuu'eel allabariga la gubo bixinayay ayaa reer Falastiin soo dhowaadeen inay la diriraan reer binu Israa'iil; laakiinse Rabbigu maalintaas wuxuu reer Falastiin ku soo daayay onkod weyn, wuuna baabbi'iyey, oo reer binu Israa'iil hortooday ku jabeen.

¹¹The men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and struck them, until they came under Beth Kar.

¹¹Kolkaasay raggii reer binu Israa'iil intay Misfaah ka soo baxeen reer Falastiin eryadeen, wayna laynayeen ilaa ay Beytkaar hoosteeda yimaadeen.

¹²Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, “Ebenezer” means “stone of help.” saying, “Yahweh helped us until now.”

¹²Markaasaa Samuu'eel dhagax qaaday oo qotomiyey Misfaah iyo Sheen dhexdooda, oo wuxuu magiciisiina u bixiyey Ebenceser, oo yidhi, Ilaa haatan Rabbigu waa ina caawiyey.

¹³So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the border of Israel. The hand of Yahweh was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

¹³Sidaas daraaddeed reer Falastiin waa la hoosaysiiyey, oo mar dambena sooma ay gelin xuduudkii reer binu Israa'iil; oo intii Samuu'eel noolaa oo dhan gacanta Rabbigu gees bay ka ahayd reer Falastiin.

¹⁴The cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and Israel recovered its border out of the hand of the Philistines. There was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

¹⁴Oo magaalooyinkii reer Falastiin ay ka qabsadeen reer binu Israa'iil waa loo soo celiyey reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxay ahaayeen Ceqroon iyo xataa tan iyo Gad; oo xuduudkeedii reer binu Israa'iil waa kala soo baxeen gacantii reer Falastiin. Oo reer binu Israa'iil iyo reer Amorna nabad baa u dhexaysay.

¹⁵Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.

¹⁵Oo Samuu'eelna wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil xukumi jiray intuu noolaa oo dhan.

¹⁶He went from year to year in circuit to Bethel and Gilgal, and Mizpah; and he judged Israel in all those places.

¹⁶Oo sannad kastaba wuxuu ku soo wareegi jiray Beytel, iyo Gilgaal, iyo Misfaah, oo meelahaas oo dhanna reer binu Israa'iil buu ku xukumi jiray.Oo wuxuu ku noqon jiray Raamaah, waayo, halkaasuu gurigiisu ahaa, oo halkaasna reer binu Israa'iil buu ku xukumi jiray; oo halkaasna wuxuu Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari.

¹⁷His return was to Ramah, for there was his house; and there he judged Israel: and he built there an altar to Yahweh.

¹⁷Oo wuxuu ku noqon jiray Raamaah, waayo, halkaasuu gurigiisu ahaa, oo halkaasna reer binu Israa'iil buu ku xukumi jiray; oo halkaasna wuxuu Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari.
