Yashuuca 9

1 Oo Webi Urdun shishadiisa, iyo dhulka buuraha, iyo dhulka dooxada ah, iyo badda weyn xeebteeda oo ka horraysa Lubnaan boqorradii degganaa oo dhammu markay maqleen, waxaa dhacday inay reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Kancaan, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuusba

Now on hearing the news of these things, all the kings on the west side of Jordan, in the hill-country and the lowlands and by the Great Sea in front of Lebanon, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites,

2 iswada urursadeen inay isku si ula diriraan Yashuuca iyo reer binu Israa'iil.

Came together with one purpose, to make war against Joshua and Israel.

3 Laakiinse dadkii Gibecoon degganaa markay maqleen wixii Yashuuca ku sameeyey Yerixoo iyo Aacii,

And the men of Gibeon, hearing what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,

4 iyana markaasay khiyaano sameeyeen, oo intay tageen bay iska dhigeen sidii iyagoo ah wakiillo dalal kale, oo waxay dameerradoodii ku qaateen joonyado gaboobay, iyo sibraarro khamri oo khamri oo gaboobay oo dildillaacay oo la xidhxidhay.

Acting with deceit, got food together as if for a long journey; and took old food-bags for their asses, and old and cracked wine-skins kept together with cord;

5 Oo waxay gashadeen kabo duugoobay oo la karkaray, oo waxay xidheen dhar gaboobay, oo kibistii ay soo sahaydeen oo dhammuna waxay ahayd mid engegan oo caaryaysatay.

And put old stitched-up shoes on their feet, and old clothing on their backs; and all the food they had with them was dry and broken up.

6 Oo waxay u tageen Yashuuca oo jooga xeradii ku tiil Gilgaal, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen isagii iyo raggii reer binu Israa'iilba, Annagu waxaannu ka nimid dal fog; haddaba sidaas daraaddeed axdi nala dhigta.

And they came to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, We have come from a far country: so now make an agreement with us.

7 Oo raggii reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku yidhaahdeen kuwii reer Xiwi, War mindhaa annagaad na dhex deggan tihiin, oo haddaba sidee baannu axdi idiinla dhiganaynaa?

And the men of Israel said to the Hivites, It may be that you are living among us; how then may we make an agreement with you?

8 Oo waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu nahay addoommadaada. Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu ku yidhi, Yaad tihiin? Oo xaggee baad ka timaadeen?

And they said to Joshua, We are your servants. Then Joshua said to them, Who are you and where do you come from?

9 Kolkaasay waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Magaca Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah aawadiis ayaannu annagoo addoommadaada ah waddan aad u fog uga nimid, waayo, waxaannu maqalnay warkiisii, iyo kulli wixii uu Masar ku dhex sameeyey oo dhan,

And they said to him, Your servants have come from a very far country, because of the name of the Lord your God: for the story of his great name, and of all he did in Egypt has come to our ears,

10 iyo kulli wixii uu ku sameeyey labadii boqor oo reer Amor oo ka shisheeyey Webi Urdun, kuwaas oo ahaa Siixon oo boqor ka ahaa Xeshboon, iyo Coog oo boqor ka ahaa Baashaan, oo degganaa Cashtarod.

And what he did to the two kings of the Amorites east of Jordan, to Sihon, king of Heshbon, and to Og, king of Bashan, at Ashtaroth.

11 Oo odayaashayadii iyo dadkii waddankayaga degganaa oo dhammu waxay nagu soo yidhaahdeen, Sodcaalka aawadiis sahay u qaata, oo taga si aad ula kulantaan iyaga, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Annagu waxaannu nahay addoommadiinna, ee haddaba axdi nala dhigta.

So the responsible men and all the people of our country said to us, Take food with you for the journey and go to them, and say to them, We are your servants: so now make an agreement with us.

12 Oo kibistan iyadoo kulul baan guryahayagii sahay uga soo qaadannay maalintii aan idiin soo kacnay; laakiinse bal hadda eega, way engegtay, wayna caaryaysatay:

This bread which we have with us for our food, we took warm and new from our houses when starting on our journey to you; but now see, it has become dry and broken up.

13 oo sibraarradan khamriga oo aannu soo buuxsannay way cusbaayeen, oo bal eega haatan waa dildillaacsan yihiin, oo dharkayaga iyo kabahayagu waxay ku duugoobeen sodcaalkii aad u dheeraa aawadiis.

And these wine-skins were new when we put the wine in them, and now they are cracked as you see; and our clothing and our shoes have become old because of our very long journey here.

14 Oo markaasay nimankii wax ka qaateen sahaydoodii, oo Rabbigana talo ma ay weyddiisan.

And the men took some of their food, without requesting directions from the Lord.

15 Oo Yashuucana wuu la nabday iyagii, oo axdina wuu la dhigtay inuu naftooda u daayo; oo amiirradii shirkuna way u dhaarteen iyagii.

So Joshua made peace with them, and made an agreement with them that they were not to be put to death: and the chiefs of the people took an oath to them.

16 Oo markay axdigii la dhigteen saddex maalmood dabadeed waxay maqleen inay yihiin deriskooda, oo ay dhexdooda deggan yihiin.

Now three days after, when they had made this agreement with them, they had word that these men were their neighbours, living near them.

17 Oo reer binu Israa'iil way sodcaaleen, oo maalintii saddexaad waxay yimaadeen magaalooyinkoodii. Oo magaalooyinkooduna waxay ahaayeen Gibecoon, iyo Kefiiraah, iyo Bi'irod, iyo Qiryad Yecaariim.

And the children of Israel went forward on their journey, and on the third day came to their towns. Now their towns were Gibeon and Chephirah and Beeroth and Kiriath-jearim.

18 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna ma ay layn, waayo, amiirradii shirku waxay iyagii ugu dhaarteen Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil. Oo markaasaa shirkii oo dhammu waxay ka gunuunaceen amiirradii.

And the children of Israel did not put them to death, because the chiefs of the people had taken an oath to them by the Lord, the God of Israel. And all the people made an outcry against the chiefs.

19 Laakiinse amiirradii oo dhammu waxay shirkii oo dhan ku yidhaahdeen, Waxaannu iyaga ugu dhaarannay Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil; oo haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waa inaynaan taaban iyaga.

But all the chiefs said to the people, We have taken an oath to them by the Lord, the God of Israel, and so we may not put our hands on them.

20 Oo sidan baan u yeelaynaa, oo naftooda ayaan u daynaynaa waaba intaas oo dhaartii aannu ugu dhaarannay daraaddeed cadho inoogu dhacdaaye.

This is what we will do to them: we will not put them to death, for fear that wrath may come on us because of our oath to them.

21 Oo amiirradii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Naftooda u daaya, ha noolaadeene. Sidaas daraaddeed waxay shirkii oo dhan u noqdeen kuwo xaabada gura oo biyaha dhaansha, sidii amiirradii kula hadleen iyagii.

Keep them living, and let them be servants, cutting wood and getting water for all the people. And all the people did as the chiefs had said to them.

22 Markaasaa Yashuuca u yeedhay iyagii, oo intuu la hadlay buu ku yidhi, War maxaad noo khiyaanayseen oo noogu tidhaahdeen, Waannu idinka fog nahay, idinkoo na dhex deggan?

Then Joshua sent for them, and said to them, Why have you been false to us, saying, We are very far from you, when you are living among us?

23 Sidaas daraaddeed waad habaaran tihiin, oo weligiin laydinka waayi maayo addoommo ah kuwa xaabada u gura, biyahana u dhaamiya guriga Ilaahayga.

Now because of this you are cursed, and you will for ever be our servants, cutting wood and getting water for the house of my God.

24 Oo waxay Yashuuca ugu jawaabeen, Maxaa yeelay, hubaal waxaa annagoo addoommadaada ah lanoo sheegay sida Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu addoonkiisii Muuse ahaa ugu amray inuu idin siiyo dalka oo dhan, iyo in dadka dalka deggan oo dhan hortiinna laga baabbi'iyo; oo sidaas aawadeed naftayada aad baannu ugu cabsannay idinka daraaddiin, oo waxanna sidaas baannu u yeelnay.

And, answering Joshua, they said, Because it came to the ears of your servants that the Lord your God had given orders to his servant Moses to give you all this land, and to send destruction on all the people living in it, because of you; so, fearing greatly for our lives because of you, we have done this.

25 Oo haddaba bal eeg gacantaadaannu ku jirnaa. Sidii kula wanaagsan oo kula qumman inaad nagu samaysid yeel.

And now we are in your hands: do to us whatever seems good and right to you.

26 Oo sidaas buu u yeelay, oo ka samatabbixiyey gacantii reer binu Israa'iil inaanay dilin.

So he kept them safe from the children of Israel, and did not let them be put to death.

27 Oo maalintaasuu Yashuuca iyagii ka dhigay kuwo xaabada u gura, biyahana u dhaamiya shirka iyo meesha allabariga Rabbiga, taas oo ku taal meel alla meeshuu doortoba, ilaa maantadan la joogo.

And that day Joshua made them servants, cutting wood and getting water for the people and for the altar of the Lord, in the place marked out by him, to this day.
