< Judges 6 >
1 The Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight. So the Lord handed them over to the Midianites for seven years.
Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun; markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu intii toddoba sannadood ah gacanta u geliyey reer Midyaan.
2 The Midianite oppression was so great that because of them the Israelites made themselves hiding places in mountains, caves, and fortifications.
Oo gacantii Midyaanna waa ka adkaatay reer binu Israa'iil; markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay reer Midyaan aawadood u samaysteen boholo buuraha ku yaal, iyo godad, iyo dhufaysyo xoog leh.
3 Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and other peoples from the east would come and attack them.
Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil ay wax beeri jireen, waxaa iman jiray reer Midyaan iyo reer Camaaleq, iyo reer bariga, wayna ku kici jireen;
4 They would set up their camps and destroy the country's crops as far away as Gaza. They didn't leave anything to eat in the whole of Israel, and they took for themselves all the sheep, cattle, and donkeys.
oo intay ag degaan ayay ka baabbi'in jireen wixii dhulka uga baxay, ilaa la soo gaadho Gaasa, oo reer binu Israa'iil ugama ay tegin wax la quuto, iyo ido, iyo dibi, iyo dameerro toona.
5 They arrived in huge numbers with their livestock and tents like swarms of locusts, with so many camels they couldn't be counted. They invaded the land to completely devastate it.
Waayo, waxay la iman jireen xoolahooda iyo teendhooyinkooda, oo waxay u faro badnaayeen sida ayaxa oo kale. Iyaga iyo geeloodu midna tiro ma lahayn; oo waxay dalka u iman jireen inay baabbi'iyaan.
6 The Israelites were made desperately poor by the Midianites and they called out to the Lord for help.
Oo reer Midyaan aawadood ayay reer binu Israa'iil aad iyo aad ugu caydhoobeen; markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil Rabbiga u qayshadeen.
7 When the Israelites cried out to the Lord for help because of the Midianites,
Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil Rabbiga ugu qayshadeen reer Midyaan aawadood
8 the Lord sent the Israelites a prophet. He told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I brought you out of Egypt; I led you out from the place where you were slaves.
ayaa Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil u soo diray nebi; oo wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil sidan buu leeyahay, Anaa idinka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, oo waxaan idinka soo saaray gurigii addoonsiga;
9 I saved you from the power of the Egyptians and from everyone who oppressed you. I expelled them before you and gave their land to you.
waanan idinka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii Masriyiinta, iyo gacantii kuwii idin dulmi jiray oo dhan, oo kulligood intaan hortiinna ka eryay ayaan dalkoodii idin siiyey;
10 I warned you: I am the Lord your God. You must not worship the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you're now living.’ But you didn't listen to me.”
oo waxaan idinku idhi, Anigu waxaan ahay Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo waa inaydnaan ka baqin ilaahyada reer Amor oo aad dalkooda deggan tihiin; laakiinse idinku ma aydnaan dhegaysan codkaygii.
11 The angel of the Lord came and sat under the oak tree in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite. His son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress there to hide it from the Midianites.
Markaasaa waxaa yimid malaggii Rabbiga, oo wuxuu hoos fadhiistay geedkii ku yiil Cofraah, oo uu lahaa Yoo'aash kii reer Abiiceser; oo wiilkiisii Gidcoon ahaa ayaa sarreen ku tumayay meeshii macsaradda inuu ka qariyo reer Midyaan.
12 The angel of the Lord appeared to him and said, “The Lord is with you, great man of courage!”
Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu u muuqday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbigu waa kula jiraa, nin yahow xoogga lahu.
13 “Excuse me, my lord, but if the Lord is with us, why has all this happened to us?” Gideon replied. “Where are all his wonderful miracles that our forefathers reminded us about when they said, ‘Wasn't it the Lord who led us out of Egypt?’ But now the Lord has given up on us and has handed us over to the Midianites.”
Oo markaasaa Gidcoon malaggii ku yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, haddii Rabbigu nala jiro, de maxaa waxyaalahan oo dhammu noogu dhaceen? Oo meeye kulli shuqulladiisii yaabka lahaa oo ay awowayaashayo noo sheegeen, oo ay nagu yidhaahdeen, Miyaanu Rabbigu naga soo bixin dalkii Masar? Laakiinse haatan Rabbigu waa na xooray, oo wuxuu gacanta noo geliyey reer Midyaan.
14 The Lord turned to him and said, “Go in the strength that you have and save Israel from the Midianites. Aren't I the one sending you?”
Markaasaa Rabbigu isagii eegay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Xooggaagan ku tag, oo reer binu Israa'iil ka badbaadi gacanta reer Midyaan. Sow kuma aanan dirin?
15 “Excuse me, my lord, but how can I save Israel?” Gideon replied. “My family is the least important of the tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least important person of that family!”
Markaasuu isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Sayidow, maxaan reer binu Israa'iil ku badbaadiyaa? Bal eeg, reerkaygu waa kan ugu liita reer Manaseh, oo anna waxaan ahay kan ugu yar reerka aabbahay.
16 “I will be with you,” the Lord told him. “You will defeat the Midianites as if they were just one man.”
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Hubaal waan kula jirayaa, oo waxaad reer Midyaan u layn doontaa sida nin keliya.
17 “Please, Lord, if you think well of me, give me a sign that it's really you telling me this,” Gideon asked.
Oo markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaba haddaad raalli iga tahay, de calaamo i tus inaad tahay kan ila hadlaya.
18 “Don't leave until I come back and present my offering to you.” “I will remain here until you return,” he replied.
Waan ku baryayaaye, halkaas ha ka tegin ilaa aan kuu imaado, oo aan qurbaankayga kuu keeno, oo aan ku hor dhigo. Isagu wuxuu yidhi, Waan ku sugayaa ilaa aad soo noqotid.
19 Gideon went and cooked a young goat, and baked some unleavened bread from an ephah of flour. He put the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot. He carried them out and presented them to the angel under the oak tree.
Markaasaa Gidcoon gudaha galay, oo wuxuu diyaariyey orgi yar, iyo qiyaas eefaah bur ah oo uu ka sameeyey kibis aan khamiir lahayn. Hilibkii wuxuu ku riday dambiil, maraqiina dheri buu ku shubay, oo wuxuu ugu keenay oo ku siiyey geedkii hoostiisa.
20 The angel of God told him, “Place the meat and the unleavened bread on this rock and pour the broth over them.” So Gideon did.
Markaasaa malaggii Ilaah wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Hilibka iyo kibista aan khamiirka lahayn qaad, oo waxaad saartaa dhagaxan, oo maraqana ku qub. Oo isna sidaasuu yeelay.
21 The angel of the Lord held out the staff he was holding and touched the meat and unleavened bread with the tip. Fire flamed from the rock and burned up the meat and unleavened bread. Then the angel vanished.
Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu wuxuu soo taagay ushii gacantiisa ku jirtay dabadeedii, oo wuxuu ku taabtay hilibkii iyo kibistii aan khamiirka lahayn, markaasaa dab ka soo baxay dhagaxii, oo wuxuu laastay hilibkii iyo kibistii aan khamiirka lahayn; oo markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu ka libdhay araggiisii.
22 When Gideon realized that it was the angel of the Lord, he cried out, “Oh no, Lord God! I've seen the angel of the Lord face to face!”
Markaasaa Gidcoon arkay inuu yahay malaggii Rabbiga, oo Gidcoon wuxuu yidhi, Waa ii hoog, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, waayo, malaggii Rabbiga ayaan fool ka fool u arkay.
23 But the Lord told him, “Peace! Don't worry, you're not going to die.”
Kolkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Nabad ahow, oo ha cabsan, adigu dhiman mayside.
24 So Gideon built an altar to the Lord there and called it “The Lord is Peace.” It's still there today, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
Markaasaa Gidcoon halkaas wuxuu Rabbiga uga dhisay meel allabari, oo wuxuu magaceedii u bixiyey Rabbigu waa nabad, oo taasu xataa maantadan la joogo waxay ku taal Cofraah tii reer Abiiceser.
25 That night the Lord told Gideon, “Take your father's bull and a second bull seven years old, and tear down your father's altar of Baal, and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.
Oo isla habeenkaas ayaa Rabbigu ku yidhi isagii, Kaxayso dibiga aabbahaa, kaasoo ah dibiga labaad oo toddoba jirka ah, oo waxaad dumisaa meeshaa allabariga loogu bixiyo Bacal oo aabbahaa haysto, oo geedaha Asheeraah ku ag yaalna jar;
26 Then build an altar to the Lord your God in the proper way on hilltop. Using the wood of the Asherah pole you cut down as firewood, take the second bull and present it as a burnt offering.”
oo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah meel allabari uga dul dhis dhufayskan, oo hagaaji, oo kexee dibiga labaad, oo geedihii Asheeraah oo aad gooysay qoryihiisa ku bixi allabari la gubo.
27 Gideon accompanied by ten of his servants did what the Lord had told him. However, because he was afraid of his family and the people of the town, he did it during the night rather than in the day.
Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu soo kaxaystay toban nin oo addoommadiisii ahaa, oo wuxuu sameeyey wixii Rabbigu u sheegay, oo shuqulkii habeennimuu sameeyey, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka cabsanayay reerkii aabbihiis iyo dadkii magaalada, oo taas darteed maalinnimo ma uu samayn karin.
28 Early in the morning when the people of the town got up, they saw that the altar of Baal had been torn down and the Asherah pole beside it had been cut down, with the second bull sacrificed on the altar that had just been built.
Oo dadkii magaaladu markay aroor hore soo tooseen ayay arkeen in meeshii allabariga Bacal loogu bixin jiray ay dunsan tahay iyo in geedihii Asheeraah oo agteeda ku yiil ay salka ka go'an yihiin, iyo in dibigii labaad lagu dul bixiyey meeshii allabariga oo loo dhisay.
29 They asked one another, “Who did this?” They made inquiries and they were told, “Gideon, son of Joash, did it.”
Markaasaa midkoodba wuxuu kii kale ku yidhi, Yaa waxakan sameeyey? Oo markay haybiyeen oo dadkii weyddiiyeen ayaa la yidhi, Waxakan waxaa sameeyey Gidcoon ina Yoo'aash.
30 “Hand over your son,” the people of the town ordered Joash. “He must die, because he has torn down the altar of Baal and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.”
Markaasaa dadkii magaaladu waxay Yoo'aash ku yidhaahdeen, Soo bixi wiilkaaga aan dilnee, waayo, wuxuu dumiyey meeshii allabariga Bacal loogu bixin jiray, oo geedihii Asheeraah oo ku ag yiilna salkuu ka gooyay.
31 Joash replied to all those confronting him, “Are you arguing on Baal's behalf? Do you have to save him? Anyone who argues for him will be put to death by morning! If he is a god let him fight for himself against those who tore down his altar.”
Markaasaa Yoo'aash wuxuu ku yidhi dadkii ku kacay oo dhan, Ma idinkaa u dagaallamaya Bacal? Oo ma isagaad badbaadinaysaan? Kii u dagaallama ha la dilo subaxda, waayo, hadduu isagu ilaah yahay, de ha isu dagaallamo, maxaa yeelay, waxaa laga jebiyey meeshiisii allabariga.
32 That day Gideon was called Jerub-baal, which means “Let Baal fight with him,” because he had torn down his altar.
Sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu maalintaas Gidcoon u bixiyey Yerubbacal, oo wuxuu yidhi, Bacal ha la dagaallamo isaga, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ka dumiyey meeshiisii allabariga.
33 All the Midianites, Amalekites, and other peoples of the East gathered together and crossed over the Jordan. They camped in the Valley of Jezreel.
Markaasaa waxaa is-urursaday reer Midyaan, iyo reer Camaaleq, iyo reer barigii oo dhan, oo intay Webi Urdun ka gudbeen ayay dooxadii Yesreceel degeen.
34 The Spirit of the Lord came on Gideon, and he blew the trumpet, calling Abiezrites to join him.
Laakiinse Ruuxii Rabbigu wuxuu ku soo degay Gidcoon, markaasuu buun ku dhuftay, oo waxaa ku soo ururay reer Abiiceser.
35 He sent messengers through the whole territory of Manasseh, calling them to join him, and also to Asher, Zebulun and Naphtali, so they also came and joined the others.
Oo wuxuu wargeeyayaal u diray reer Manaseh oo dhan, oo iyana markaasay ku soo urureen; oo haddana wuxuu wargeeyayaal u diray reer Aasheer, iyo reer Sebulun, iyo reer Naftaali, oo iyana way u yimaadeen inay la kulmaan iyagii.
36 Gideon said to God, “If you will save Israel through me as you promised,
Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Sidaad ii sheegtay, haddaad reer binu Israa'iil gacantayda ku badbaadinaysid,
37 then look—I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If the fleece is wet with dew but the ground is dry, then I will know that you are going to save Israel through me as you promised.”
bal eeg, meesha sarreenka lagu tumo ayaan dhigayaa dhogor idaad, haddaba haddii dharab qoyo dhogorta keliya oo dhulka kale oo dhammuna uu engegnaado, markaasaan ogaanayaa inaad gacantayda ku badbaadinaysid reer binu Israa'iil, sidaad ku hadashay.
38 That's what happened. When Gideon got up early the next morning, he pressed on the fleece and squeezed out the dew, enough water to fill a bowl.
Oo sidii bay noqotay, waayo, markuu toosay subaxdii dambe, oo tuujiyey dhogorta, wuxuu ka maroojiyey koob muuggiis oo biyo ah.
39 Then Gideon said to God, “Please don't get cross with me. Just let me make one more request. Let me do one more test with the fleece. This time let the fleece be dry and the whole ground covered with dew.”
Markaasaa Gidcoon wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Cadhadaadu yaanay igu kululaan oo markan keliya ayaan hadlayaa. Markan keliya aan dhogorta wax ku hubsado, waan ku baryayaaye. Bal markan dhogorta keliya engeg ha noqoto, laakiinse dhulka kale oo dhammu dharab ha lahaado.
40 That night God did exactly that. The fleece alone was dry and the whole ground was covered with dew.
Oo Ilaahna sidii buu yeelay habeenkaas; waayo, waxaa engegnaa dhogortii keliya, oo dhulka kale oo dhammuna dharab buu lahaa.
