Samuu'Eel Kowaad 4
1 Oo hadalkii Samuu'eelna wuxuu soo gaadhay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan. Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay u soo baxeen inay reer Falastiin la diriraan, oo waxay soo ag degeen Ebenceser; reer Falastiinna waxay soo degeen Afeeq.
The word of Samuel came to all of Israel. Now Israel went out to battle against the Philistines. They set up camp at Ebenezer, and the Philistines set up camp at Aphek.
2 Oo reer Falastiinna waxay weerar isugu soo diyaariyeen reer binu Israa'iil; oo markii ay dagaalkii isugu yimaadeenna reer binu Israa'iil waa la jebiyey reer Falastiin hortooda; oo waxay ciidankii berrinka joogay ka laayeen afar kun oo nin.
The Philistines lined up for battle against Israel. When the battle spread, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who killed about four thousand men on the field of battle.
3 Oo markay dadkii xeradii yimaadeen ayay odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil yidhaahdeen, Maanta maxaa Rabbigu inoogu laayay reer Falastiin hortooda? Haddaba sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga aynu Shiiloh ka soo qaadanno oo dhexdeenna ha yimaado, inuu inaga badbaadiyo gacanta cadaawayaasheenna.
When the people came into the camp, the elders of Israel said, “Why has Yahweh defeated us today before the Philistines? Let us bring the ark of the covenant of Yahweh here from Shiloh, that it may be here with us, that it might keep us safe from the hands of our enemies.”
4 Sidaas daraaddeed dadkii waxay u cid direen Shiiloh, oo waxay halkaas ka keeneen sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga Ciidammada oo ku fadhiya Keruubiimta dushooda, oo Ceelii labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaas iyana halkaasay la joogeen sanduuqa axdiga Ilaah.
So the people sent men to Shiloh; from there they carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh of hosts, who sits above the cherubim. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
5 Oo markii sanduuqii axdiga Rabbigu soo galay xeradii ayaa reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay ku qayliyeen qaylo weyn ee dhulku la gariiray.
When the ark of the covenant of Yahweh came into the camp, all of the people of Israel gave a great shout, and the earth resounded.
6 Oo reer Falastiinna markay maqleen dhawaaqii qaylada ayay yidhaahdeen, Dhawaaqa qaylada weyn ee xeradii Cibraaniyadii ka baxaya micnihiisu waa maxay? Markaasay garteen inuu sanduuqii Rabbigu xeradii dhex yimid.
When the Philistines heard the noise of the shouting, they said, “What does this loud shouting in the camp of the Hebrews mean?” Then they realized that the ark of Yahweh had come into the camp.
7 Oo reer Falastiinna way cabsadeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Ilaah baa xeradii soo galay. Oo haddana waxay yidhaahdeen, Hoog baa inagu dhacay! Waayo, hadda ka hor waxan oo kale lama arag.
The Philistines were afraid; they said, “A god has come into the camp.” They said, “Woe to us! Nothing like this has happened before!
8 Hoog baa inagu dhacaye! Bal yaa inaga samatabbixin doona ilaahyadan xoogga weyn gacantooda? Kuwanu waa ilaahyadii Masriyiinta ku laayay cidlada ee ku soo daayay belaayooyin cayn kasta ah.
Woe to us! Who will protect us from the strength of these mighty gods? These are the gods who attacked the Egyptians with many different kinds of plagues in the wilderness.
9 Reer Falastiinow, xoog yeesha, oo raganimo isgeliya, yeydnan Cibraaniyada addoommo u noqone, sidii ay idiinku ahaayeen oo kale. Haddaba raganimo isgeliya oo dirira.
Take courage, and be men, you Philistines, or you will become slaves to the Hebrews, as they have been slaves to you. Be men, and fight.”
10 Markaasay reer Falastiin dirireen, reer binu Israa'iilna waa la jebiyey, oo midkood waliba wuxuu ku cararay teendhadiisii. Oo maalintaas waxaa la laayay dad aad u badan; waayo, reer binu Israa'iil waxaa ka le'day soddon kun oo nin oo lug ah.
The Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated. Every man fled to his house, and the slaughter was very great; for thirty thousand foot soldiers from Israel fell.
11 Oo sanduuqii Ilaahna waa la qaatay; oo Ceelii labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaasna waa la dilay.
The ark of God was taken, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.
12 Oo ciidankii waxaa ka orday nin reer Benyaamiin ah, oo isla maalintiiba wuxuu yimid Shiiloh isagoo dharkiisu jeexjeexan yahay, oo madaxana ciid ku leh.
A man of Benjamin ran from the battle line and came to Shiloh the same day, arriving with his clothes torn and earth on his head.
13 Oo markuu yimid, bal eeg, Ceelii wuxuu ku fadhiyey kursigiisii waddada dhankeeda yiil, isagoo wax fiirinaya; waayo, qalbigiisu wuxuu u dhibbanaa sanduuqii Ilaah aawadiis. Oo markii ninkii soo galay magaaladii, oo uu u warramay, ayaa magaaladii oo dhammu qaylisay.
When he arrived, Eli was sitting on his seat by the road watching because his heart trembled with concern for the ark of God. When the man entered the city and told the news, the whole city cried out.
14 Oo Ceeliina markuu maqlay dhawaaqii qaylada ayuu yidhi, Buuqan sawaxankiisu waa maxay micnihiisu? Markaasaa ninkii intuu soo dhaqsaday ayuu Ceelii u yimid oo u warramay.
When Eli heard the noise of the outcry, he said, “What is the meaning of this uproar?” The man quickly came and told Eli.
15 Ceeliina wuxuu jiray siddeed iyo sagaashan sannadood, oo indhihiisuna dem bay ahaayeen oo waxba ma uu arki karin.
Now Eli was ninety-eight years old; his eyes did not focus, and he could not see.
16 Oo ninkii wuxuu Ceelii ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay kii ciidankii ka soo baxay, oo maantaan ciidankii ka soo cararay. Markaasuu yidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, sidee bay xaaladdu u dhacday?
The man said to Eli, “I am the one who came from the battle line. I fled from the battle today.” Eli said, “How did it go, my son?”
17 Oo kii warka keenay waa jawaabay oo yidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil way ka carareen reer Falastiin, oo dad badan baa la laayay, oo labadaadii wiil oo ahaa Hofnii iyo Fiinexaas iyana way dhinteen, oo sanduuqii Ilaahna waa la qaatay.
The man who brought the news answered and said, “Israel fled from the Philistines. Also, there has been a great defeat among the people. Also, your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.”
18 Oo markuu sanduuqii Ilaah wax uga sheegay, ayuu Ceelii dib uga dhacay kursigiisii iridda ag yiil, markaasuu qoorta ka jabay oo dhintay, waayo, wuxuu ahaa nin da' weyn oo culus. Oo wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil xukumi jiray afartan sannadood.
When he mentioned the ark of God, Eli fell over backward from his seat by the side of the gate. His neck was broken, and he died, because he was old and heavy. He had judged Israel for forty years.
19 Oo gabadhii uu soddogga u ahaa ee Fiinexaas qabay, uur bay lahayd oo fool bay ku dhowayd; oo markay maqashay warkii ahaa in sanduuqii Ilaah la qaatay, oo ay soddoggeed iyo ninkeediiba dhinteen ayay foororsatay oo umushay; waayo, haddiiba fool baa qabatay.
Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was pregnant and about to give birth. When she heard the news that the ark of God was captured and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she knelt down and gave birth, but her labor pains overwhelmed her.
20 Oo markay sakaraadaysay ayay naagihii agteeda taagnaa ku yidhaahdeen, Ha baqin, waayo, waxaad dhashay wiil. Laakiinse uma ay jawaabin, oo danna kama gelin.
About the time of her death the women attending to her said, “Do not be afraid, for you have given birth to a son.” But she did not answer or take what they said to heart.
21 Oo iyana waxay wiilkii u bixisay Iikabood, oo tidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil ammaantii way ka tagtay; maxaa yeelay, sanduuqii Ilaah waa la qaatay, oo weliba soddoggeed iyo ninkeediiba way dhinteen.
She named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has gone away from Israel!” for the ark of God had been captured, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 Oo waxay tidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil ammaantii way ka tagtay; maxaa yeelay, sanduuqii Ilaah waa la qaatay.
She said, “The glory has gone away from Israel, because the ark of God has been captured.”
