Hoosheeca 12
1 Reer Efrayim waxay quutaan dabayl oo waxay daba galaan dabaysha bari. Had iyo goorba been iyo baabba' bay badiyaan, oo waxay axdi la dhigtaan dadka dalka Ashuur, saliidna Masar bay u qaadaan.
Ephraim herds the wind and hunts the sirocco. All day long they heap up falsehood and fraud, make a treaty with Assyria, and sends tribute of olive oil to Egypt.
2 Oo weliba Rabbigu dacwad buu la leeyahay dadka Yahuudah, oo wuxuu reer Yacquub u ciqaabi doonaa si waafaqsan jidadkooda, oo wuxuu u abaalmarin doonaa si waafaqsan falimahooda.
The Lord has a charge to bring against Israel, to punish Jacob for his acts, according to his deeds will he requite him,
3 Yacquub markuu uurka ku jiray walaalkiis buu cedhibta ku dhegay, oo markuu nin noqdayna Ilaah buu la dagaallamay.
In the womb he supplanted his brother, in manhood he wrestled with God,
4 Haah, oo wuxuu la dagaallamay malaa'igtii, wuuna ka adkaaday, wuuna ooyay oo baryay. Wuxuu isagii ka helay Beytel, oo halkaasuu nagula hadlay.
He wrestled with the angel and prevailed, he wept and sought his blessing. At Bethel the Lord found him, and there he spoke with us.
5 Rabbigu waa Ilaaha ciidammada. Rabbigu waa magiciisa lagu xusuusto.
And the Lord is the God of hosts, the Lord is his name!
6 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Ilaahaaga u soo jeeso, oo naxariista iyo garsooridda xaji, oo had iyo goorna Ilaahaaga sug.
So now, by the help of your God, return. Keep true love and justice. Trust in your God without ceasing.
7 Dadkaygu waa baayacmushtari, oo waxaa gacanta ugu jira kafadihii khiyaanada, waxay jecel yihiin inay wax dulmaan.
A merchant uses false scales: They love to defraud.
8 Oo reer Efrayim wuxuu yidhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah taajir baan noqday, oo maal baan helay, oo innaba hawlahayga oo dhan lagama heli doono xumaan dembi ah.
Ephraim says, ‘Yes, I have become rich, I have secured wealth for myself. But despite my gains no one will find a crime I can be convicted of!’
9 Laakiinse anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah oo idinka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, oo weliba waxaan ka dhigi doonaa inaad mar kale teendhooyin degganaataan sidii wakhtigii iidda.
I am the Lord your God, ever since the land of Egypt. I will make you again dwell in tents, as in days of old.
10 Oo weliba waxaan la hadlay nebiyadii, oo waxaan badiyey waxyaalo aan tusay, oo nebiyadana waxaan u soo dhiibay masaalooyin.
I spoke continually by the prophets. It was I who multiplied visions, and spoke in parables through the prophets.
11 Reer Gilecaad waa xumaan miidhan oo iyagu dhammaantood waa wax aan waxtar lahayn. Waxay Gilgaal ku allabaryaan dibiyo, oo weliba meelahooda allabarigu waa sida tuulmooyin ku dhex yaal jeexjeexyada beerta oo kale.
In Gilead is iniquity, they will come to nothing. In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls, so their altars will be as stone heaps, among the furrows of the field.
12 Yacquub wuxuu ku dhex cararay beertii Aram, oo Israa'iil inuu naag helo buu u shaqeeyey oo ido u ilaaliyey.
And Jacob fled to the territory of Aram, and Israel worked to earn a wife: for a wife he herded sheep.
13 Oo Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil nebi buu kaga soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, oo nebi baa iyagii lagu ilaashay.
The Lord brought Israel up from Egypt by a prophet, and by a prophet Israel was guarded.
14 Reer Efrayim si qadhaadh bay Rabbiga uga xanaajiyeen, haddaba dhiiggoodu korkooduu ku hadhi doonaa, oo ceebtoodana Sayidkoodu waa ku soo celin doonaa.
Ephraim has given bitter provocation. His Lord will leave upon him his guilt of bloodshed, and for his contempt he will repay him.
