< Numbers 13 >
1 And there the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
2 Send men to view the land of Chanaan, which I will give to the children of Israel, one of every tribe, of the rulers.
“Akka isaan dhaqanii biyya Kanaʼaan ishee ani Israaʼelootaaf kennuuf jiru sana basaasaniif namoota ergi. Tokkoo tokkoo abbootii gosaa keessaa hoogganaa tokko ergi.”
3 Moses did what the Lord had commanded, sending from the desert of Pharan, principal men, whose names are these:
Museen ajaja Waaqayyootiin Gammoojjii Phaaraan keessaa isaan erge. Hundi isaanii hooggantoota Israaʼelootaa turan.
4 Of the tribe of Ruben, Sammua the son of Zechur.
Maqaan isaanii kanneenii dha: Gosa Ruubeen keessaa Shamuuʼaa ilma Zakuur;
5 Of the tribe of Simeon, Saphat the son of Hurl.
gosa Simiʼoon keessaa Shaafaaxi ilma Hoorii;
6 Of the tribe of Juda, Caleb the son of Jephone.
gosa Yihuudaa keessaa Kaaleb ilma Yefunee;
7 Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
gosa Yisaakor keessaa Yigiʼaal ilma Yoosef;
8 Of the tribe of Ephraim, Osee the son of Nun.
gosa Efreem keessaa Hoosheeʼaa ilma Nuuni;
9 Of the tribe of Benjamin, Phalti the son of Raphu.
gosa Beniyaam keessaa Phaaltii ilma Raaphuu;
10 Of the tribe of Zabulon, Geddiel the son of Sodi.
gosa Zebuuloon keessaa Gadiiʼeel ilma Soodii;
11 Of the tribe of Joseph, of the sceptre of Manasses, Gaddi the son of Susi.
gosa Minaasee jechuunis gosa Yoosef keessaa Gadii ilma Suus;
12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
gosa Daan keessaa Amiiʼeel ilma Gemaal;
13 Of the tribe of Aser, Sthur the son of Michael.
gosa Aasheer keessaa Sexuur ilma Miikaaʼel;
14 Of the tribe of Nephtali, Nahabi the son of Vapsi.
gosa Niftaalem keessaa Naahibii ilma Wofsii;
15 Of the tribe of Gad, Guel the son of Machi.
gosa Gaad keessaa Geʼuuʼeel ilma Maakii ti.
16 These are the names of the men, whom Moses sent to view the land: and he called Osee the son of Nun, Josue.
Egaa maqaawwan kunneen maqaawwan namoota akka isaan biyya sana basaasaniif jedhee Museen ergee dha. Museenis Hoosheeʼaa ilma Nuuni sana, “Iyyaasuu” jedhee moggaase.
17 And Moses sent them to view the land of Chanaan, and said to them: Go you up by the south side. And when you shall come to the mountains,
Museen yommuu akka isaan biyya Kanaʼaanii basaasaniif isaan ergetti akkana jedheen; “Karaa Negeeb darbaatii gara biyya gaaraatti ol baʼaa.
18 View the land, of what sort it is: and the people that are the inhabitants thereof, whether they be strong or weak: few in number or many:
Biyyi sun maal akka fakkaattu, namoonni achi jiraatanis jajjaboo yookaan dadhaboo, muraasa yookaan hedduu taʼuu isaanii ilaalaa.
19 The land itself, whether it be good or bad: what manner of cities, walled or without walls:
Isaan biyya akkamii keessa jiraatu? Gaarii yookaan gadhee? Magaalaawwan akkamii keessa jiraatu? Dallaa dhagaa hin qaban moo daʼoo jabaa qabu?
20 The ground, fat or barren, woody or without trees. Be of good courage, and bring us of the fruits of the land. Now it was the time when the first ripe grapes are fit to be eaten.
Lafti isaa gabbataa dha moo gabbataa miti? Muka qaba moo hin qabu. Jabaadhaatii ija biyyattii keessaa muraasa fidaa.” Waqtiin sun yeroo iji wayinii kan jalqabaa itti bilchaatu ture.
21 And when they were gone up, they viewed the land from the desert of Sin, unto Rohob as you enter into Emath.
Isaan ol baʼanii Gammoojjii Siin irraa jalqabanii hamma Rehoobitti gara Leeboo Hamaatitti biyyattii basaasan.
22 And they went up at the south side, and came to Hebron, where were Achiman and Sisai and Tholmai the sons of Enac. For Hebron was built seven years before Tanis the city of Egypt.
Isaanis karaa Negeeb ol baʼanii gara Kebroon lafa Ahiiman, Sheeshaayii fi Talmaayi ilmaan Anaaq sun jiraataniitti dhufan. Kebroon kunis utuu Zooʼaan isheen biyya Gibxi sun hin ijaaramin waggaa torbaan dura ijaaramte.
23 And going forward as far as the torrent of the cluster of grapes, they cut off a branch with its cluster of grapes, which two men carried upon a lever. They took also of the pomegranates and of the figs of that place:
Isaanis yommuu Sulula Eshkool gaʼanitti hurbuu ija wayinii tokko kutan. Wayinii sanas roomaanii fi harbuu wajjin nama lama taʼanii danqaraadhaan baatan.
24 Which was called Nehelescol, that is to say, the torrent of the cluster of grapes, because from thence the children of Israel had carried a cluster of grapes.
Iddoon sun sababii hurbuu ija wayinii kan warri Israaʼel kutan sanaatiif Sulula Eshkool jedhame.
25 And they that went to spy out the land returned after forty days, having gone round all the country,
Jarris dhuma bultii afurtamaatti biyya sana basaasanii deebiʼan.
26 And came to Moses and Aaron and to all the assembly of the children of Israel to the desert of Pharan, which is in Cades. And speaking to them and to all the multitude, they shewed them the fruits of the land:
Isaanis gara Qaadesh ishee Gammoojjii Phaaraan keessaa gara Musee fi Aroon, gara waldaa Israaʼel guutuu deebiʼanii dhufan. Achittis gabaasa isaaniif dhiʼeessan; ija biyyattiis isaan argisiisan.
27 And they related and said: We came into the land to which thou sentest us, which in very deed floweth with milk and honey as may be known by these fruits:
Isaanis akkana jedhanii Museetti himan: “Nu gara biyya ati itti nu ergite sanaa dhaqneerra; biyyattiin aannanii fi damma baafti! Iji ishees kunoo kana.
28 But it hath very strong inhabitants, and the cities are great and walled. We saw there the race of Enac.
Garuu namoonni achi jiraatan jajjaboo dha; magaalaawwan ishee dallaa jabaa qabu; gurguddaa dhas. Nu sanyii Anaaq iyyuu achitti argineerra.
29 Amalec dwelleth in the south, the Hethite and the Jebusite and the Amorrhite in the mountains: but the Chanaanite abideth by the sea and near the streams of the Jordan.
Amaaleqoonni Negeeb keessa jiraatu; Heetonni, Yebuusonnii fi Amooronni biyya gaaraa keessa jiraatu; Kanaʼaanonni immoo galaana biraa fi qarqara Yordaanos jiraatu.”
30 In the mean time Caleb, to still the murmuring of the people that rose against Moses, said: Let us go up and possess the land, for we shall be able to conquer it.
Kaalebis fuula Musee duratti saba calʼisiisee, “Nu dafnee ol baanee biyyattii haa dhaallu; moʼachuu ni dandeenyaatii” jedhe.
31 But the others, that had been with him, said: No, we are not able to go up to this people, because they are stronger than we.
Namoonni isa wajjin ol baʼanii turan garuu, “Nu warra sana dhaʼuu hin dandeenyu; isaan nurra jajjaboo dha” jedhan.
32 And they spoke ill of the land, which they had viewed, before the children of Israel, saying: The land which we have viewed, devoureth its inhabitants: the people, that we beheld, are of a tall stature.
Isaanis waaʼee biyya basaasan sanaa saba Israaʼel gidduutti oduu gadhee tamsaasan. Akkanas jedhan; “Biyyi nu basaasne sun biyya warra ishee keessa jiraatu iyyuu nyaattuu dha. Namoonni nu achitti argine hundinuu dhedheeroo dha.
33 There we saw certain monsters of the sons of Enac, of the giant kind: in comparison of whom, we seemed like locusts.
Achitti Nefiiliimota argine; ilmaan Anaaq Nefiiliimota irraa dhufan. Nu ofuma keenyatti iyyuu korophisa fakkaanne; fuula isaanii durattis akkasuma taane.”
