< Judges 8 >

1 And the men of Ephraim said to him, “What is this, that you wanted to do, so that you would not call us when you went to fight against Midian?” And they rebuked him strongly, and came close to using violence.
Oo raggii reer Efrayim waxay Gidcoon ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaad waxan noogu samaysay, oo aad noogu yeedhi weyday, markaad u soo kacday inaad reer Midyaan la dagaallanto? Oo aad iyo aad bay u canaanteen isagii.
2 And he responded to them: “But what could I have done that would be so great as what you have done? Is not one bunch of grapes of Ephraim better than the vintages of Abiezer?
Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaba maxaan sameeyey oo u qalma waxaad samayseen? Ururinta dambe oo canabka reer Efrayim sow kama wanaagsana ururinta hore oo canabka reer Abiiceser?
3 The Lord has delivered into your hands the leaders of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb. What could I have done that would be so great as what you have done?” And when he had said this, their spirit, which was swelling up against him, was quieted.
Ilaah wuxuu gacanta idiin geliyey amiirradii reer Midyaan oo ahaa Cooreeb iyo Se'eeb; haddaba maxaan samayn karay oo u qalma waxaad samayseen? Oo markuu sidaas ku yidhi ayaa ciilkay u qabeen ka baxay.
4 And when Gideon had arrived at the Jordan, he crossed over it with the three hundred men who were with him. And they were so weary that they were unable to pursue those who were fleeing.
Markaasay Gidcoon iyo saddexdii boqol oo nin ee la socotay isaga yimaadeen Webi Urdun, wayna ka gudbeen, oo in kastoo ay daalanaayeen weliba wax bay eryoonayeen.
5 And he said to the men of Succoth, “I beg you, give bread to the people who are with me, for they are greatly weakened, so that we may be able to pursue Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.”
Markaasuu dadkii reer Sukod ku yidhi, Waan idin baryayaaye, dadka ila socda kibis siiya, waayo, way daalan yihiin, oo anna waxaan eryoonayaa boqorrada reer Midyaan oo ah Sebah iyo Salmunnac.
6 The leaders of Succoth answered, “Perhaps the palms of the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna are in your hand, and for this reason, you request that we give bread to your army.”
Markaasaa amiirradii reer Sukod waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Sebah iyo Salmunnac miyey haatan gacantaada ku jiraan aannu colkaaga cunto siinnee?
7 And he said to them, “So then, when the Lord will have delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hands, I will thresh your flesh with the thorns and briers of the desert.”
Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu yidhi, Waa hagaag ee markii Rabbigu ii soo gacangeliyo Sebah iyo Salmunnac ayaan hilibkiinna ku jeexjeexi doonaa qodxanta cidlada iyo gocondhada.
8 And going up from there, he arrived at Penuel. And he spoke to the men of that place similarly. And they also answered him, just as the men of Succoth had answered.
Markaasuu intuu halkaas ka tegey ayuu u kacay xagga reer Fenuu'eel, sidii oo kaluu ku yidhi; oo raggii reer Fenuu'eel waxay ugu jawaabeen sidii ay reer Sukod ugu jawaabeen oo kale.
9 And so he said to them also, “When I will have returned as a victor in peace, I will destroy this tower.”
Kolkaasuu haddana wuxuu la hadlay raggii reer Fenuu'eel oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Markaan soo nabad noqdo ayaan dumin doonaa munaaraddan.
10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were resting with their entire army. For fifteen thousand men were left out of all the troops of the eastern people. And one hundred twenty thousand warriors that drew the sword had been cut down.
Haddaba Sebah iyo Salmunnac waxay joogeen Qarqor, iyaga iyo ciidammadoodii, oo waxay ku dhowaayeen shan iyo toban kun oo nin, oo intaasuna waxay ahayd intii ka hadhay ciidankii reer bariga oo dhan; waayo, waxaa ka la'day boqol iyo labaatan kun oo nin oo seefqaad ah.
11 And Gideon ascended by the way of those who were dwelling in tents, to the eastern part of Nobah and Jogbehah. And he struck the camp of the enemies, who were confident and were suspecting nothing adverse.
Kolkaasaa Gidcoon u kacay xagga kuwii teendhooyinka degganaa oo ku jiray meel bari ka xigta Nobax iyo Yaagbehaah, oo wuxuu laayay ciidankii, maxaa yeelay, ciidanku nabad buu u fadhiyey.
12 And Zebah and Zalmunna fled. And Gideon pursued and overtook them, sending their entire army into confusion.
Oo Sebah iyo Salmunnac way carareen, oo isna wuu eryooday, wuuna soo qabsaday labadii boqor oo reer Midyaan oo ahaa Sebah iyo Salmunnac, oo ciidankii oo dhanna wuu ka nixiyey.
13 And returning from the war before sunrise,
Oo Gidcoon ina Yoo'aash wuxuu dagaalkii kaga soo noqday jiirtii Xeres.
14 he took a boy from among the men of Succoth. And he asked him the names of the leaders and elders of Succoth. And he described seventy-seven men.
Markaasuu wuxuu qabtay nin dhallinyar oo reer Sukod ah, oo wax weyddiiyey; oo isna wuxuu u tilmaamay amiirradii reer Sukod iyo odayaashoodii, oo waxayna ahaayeen toddoba iyo toddobaatan nin.
15 And he went to Succoth, and he said to them: “Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, over whom you rebuked me, saying: ‘Perhaps the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna are in your hands, and for this reason, you request that we give bread to men who are languishing and weakened.’”
Markaasuu wuxuu u yimid raggii reer Sukod, oo wuxuuna ku yidhi, Bal eega Sebah iyo Salmunnac, kuwii aad daraaddood iigu majaajilooteen oo aad igu tidhaahdeen, Sebah iyo Salmunnac miyey haatan gacantaada ku jiraan, aannu raggaaga daalan cunto siinnee?
16 Therefore, he took the elders of the city, and, using the thorns and briers of the desert, he threshed them with these, and he cut the men of Succoth to pieces.
Markaasuu kaxaystay odayaashii magaalada, oo wuxuu qaaday qodxantii cidlada iyo gocondho, wuuna ku edbiyey dadkii reer Sukod.
17 He also overturned the tower of Penuel, and he killed the men of the city.
Oo munaaraddii Fenuu'eelna wuu dumiyey, dadkii magaaladana wuu laayay.
18 And he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, “What kind of men were those whom you killed at Tabor?” They responded, “They were like you, and one of them was like the son of a king.”
Kolkaasuu Sebah iyo Salmunnac ku yidhi, Raggii aad Taaboor ku layseen siday ahaayeen? Oo iyana waxay ugu jawaabeen, Waxay ahaayeen sidaadoo kale; oo mid waluba wuxuu u ekaa ilmo boqor oo kale.
19 He answered them: “They were my brothers, the sons of my mother. As the Lord lives, if you had preserved them, I would not kill you.”
Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxay ahaayeen walaalahay oo ah wiilashii hooyaday; oo haddii aad iyagoo nool bixin lahaydeen, Rabbiga nool baan ku dhaartaye, idinma aan laayeen.
20 And he said to Jether, his firstborn son, “Rise up, and put them to death.” But he did not draw his sword. For he was afraid, being still a boy.
Markaasuu curadkiisii Yeter ku yidhi, Kac oo laa iyaga. Laakiinse wiilkii seeftiisii lama uu soo bixin; maxaa yeelay, wuu baqay, waayo, weli wuu yaraa.
21 And Zebah and Zalmunna said: “You should rise up and rush against us. For the strength of a man is in accord with his age.” Gideon rose up, and he killed Zebah and Zalmunna. And he took the ornaments and studs, with which the necks of the royal camels are usually adorned.
Markaasaa Sebah iyo Salmunnac waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War adigu kac oo na laa; waayo, nin waluba siduu yahay ayaa xooggiisuna yahay. Markaasaa Gidcoon kacay oo laayay Sebah iyo Salmunnac, oo wuxuu qaatay bilihii ku xidhnaa qoorta awrtooda.
22 And all the men of Israel said to Gideon: “You should rule over us, and your son, and your son’s son. For you freed us from the hand of Midian.”
Markaasaa dadkii reer binu Israa'iil waxay Gidcoon ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaba noo tali, adiga iyo wiilkaaga, iyo wiilkaaga wiilkiisuba; maxaa yeelay, waad naga badbaadisay gacantii reer Midyaan.
23 And he said to them: “I will not rule over you. Neither shall my son rule over you. Instead, the Lord shall rule over you.”
Kolkaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu idiinma talin doono, wiilkayguna idiinma talin doono; laakiinse Rabbigaa idiin talin doona.
24 And he said to them: “I petition one request from you. Give me the earrings from your spoils.” For the Ishmaelites were accustomed to wear gold earrings.
Oo haddana Gidcoon wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaan idin weyddiisan lahaa in ninkiin waluba i siiyo hilqadihii uu boolida u helay. (Waxay haysteen hilqado dahab ah, maxaa yeelay, waxay ahaayeen reer Ismaaciil).
25 They responded, “We are very willing to give them.” And spreading a cloak on the ground, they cast upon it the earrings from the spoils.
Oo waxay ugu jawaabeen, Annagoo raalli ka ah ayaannu ku siinaynaa. Kolkaasay maro gogleen, oo nin kastaaba wuxuu ku tuuray hilqadihii uu boolida u helay.
26 And the weight of the earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred shekels of gold, aside from the ornaments, and necklaces, and purple garments, which the kings of Midian were accustomed to use, and aside from the gold chains on the camels.
Oo hilqadihii dahabka ahaa oo uu weyddiistay miisaankoodii wuxuu noqday kun iyo toddoba boqol oo sheqel oo dahab ah, intaasoo aanay ku jirin bilihii, iyo murriyadihii, iyo dharkii guduudnaa oo ay boqorradii reer Midyaan xidhnaayeen, iyo silsiladihii sudhnaa qoorta awrtooda.
27 And Gideon made an ephod from these, and he kept it in his city, Ophrah. And all of Israel committed fornication with it, and it became a ruin to Gideon and to all his house.
Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu dahabkii ka sameeyey eefod, oo wuxuu dhigay magaaladiisii taasoo ahayd Coofraah; oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna way wada raaceen sidii naag ninkeedii ka dhillowday, markaasuu dabin ku noqday Gidcoon iyo reerkiisiiba.
28 But Midian was humbled before the sons of Israel. Neither were they able any longer to lift up their necks. But the land rested for forty years, while Gideon presided.
Sidaasaa reer Midyaan loo hoosaysiiyey reer binu Israa'iil hortooda, oo mar dambena madaxooda kor uma ay qaadin. Oo wakhtigii Gidcoon dalku wuxuu nastay afartan sannadood.
29 And so Jerubbaal, the son of Joash, went and lived in his own house.
Markaasaa wiilkii Yoo'aash, oo Yerubbacal ahaa intuu tegey ayuu iska degay gurigiisii.
30 And he had seventy sons, who went forth from his own thigh. For he had many wives.
Oo Gidcoon wuxuu lahaa toddobaatan wiil oo uu isagu dhalay, waayo, wuxuu qabay naago badan.
31 But his concubine, whom he had in Shechem, bore him a son named Abimelech.
Oo naagtiisii addoonta ahayd oo degganayd Shekem, iyana wiil bay u dhashay, oo wuxuu magiciisii u bixiyey Abiimeleg.
32 And Gideon, the son of Joash, died in a good old age, and he was buried in the sepulcher of his father, at Ophrah, of the family of Ezri.
Oo Gidcoon ina Yoo'aash ayaa dhintay isagoo da' weyn, oo waxaa lagu aasay xabaashii aabbihiis Yoo'aash, oo ku tiil Coofraah tii reer Abiiceser.
33 But after Gideon died, the sons of Israel turned away, and they committed fornication with the Baals. And they struck a covenant with Baal, so that he would be their god.
Oo isla markii Gidcoon dhintay ayay reer binu Israa'iil haddana noqdeen, oo Bacaliimkii raaceen sidii naag ninkeedii ka dhillowday, oo Bacal Beriidna ilaahoodii bay ka dhigteen.
34 And they did not remember the Lord their God, who rescued them from the hands of all their enemies on all sides.
Oo reer binu Israa'iilna ma ay xusuusan Rabbiga Ilaahood ahaa, oo ka samatabbixiyey cadaawayaashoodii dhan kasta ka xigay oo dhan;
35 Neither did they show mercy to the house of Jerubbaal Gideon, in accord with all the good that he had done for Israel.
raxmadna ma ay tusin reerkii Yerubbacal, kaasoo ahaa Gidcoon, siduu wanaagga oo dhan ugu sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil.
