Joshua 2
1 And Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent two young men out of Shittim as spies, saying, "Go, view the land, and Jericho." And the two young men went and came to Jericho and entered into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab, and slept there.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuni, “Dhaqaatii biyya sana, keessumattuu Yerikoo basaasaa” jedhee dhoksaan basaastota lama biyya Shixiimiitii erge. Isaanis deemanii mana sagaagaltittii Rahaab jedhamtu tokkoo seenanii achuma turan.
2 The king of Jericho was told, "Look, men of the children of Israel came in here to spy out the land."
Mooticha Yerikoottis, “Kunoo! Israaʼeloota keessaa namoonni tokko tokko biyyattii basaasuuf galgala kana as dhufaniiru” jedhamee himame.
3 The king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, "Bring out the men who came to you tonight; for they have come to spy out all the land."
Kanaafuu mootichi Yerikoo, “Sababii isaan guutummaa biyyattii basaasuuf dhufaniif namoota gara kee dhufanii mana kee seenan sana gad baasi” jedhee dhaamsa kana Rahaabitti erge.
4 The woman took the two men and hid them. Then she said, "Yes, the men came to me, but I did not know where they came from.
Dubartittiin garuu namoota lamaan fuutee dhoksite. Isheenis akkana jette; “Dhuguma namoonni gara koo dhufaniiru; ani garuu akka isaan eessaa dhufan hin beekne.
5 It happened about the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out. Where the men went, I do not know. Pursue them quickly; for you will overtake them."
Isaanis galgala yommuu yeroon karri magaalattii cufamu gaʼetti baʼanii deeman. Karaa isaan deemanis ani hin beeku. Isaan qaqqabdu taʼaatii dafaa isaan duukaa buʼaa.”
6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order on the roof.
Isheen garuu gara bantii manaatti ol isaan baaftee cidii talbaa kan bantii manaa irratti tuultee turte jala isaan dhoksite.
7 The men pursued them the way to the Jordan to the fords: and as soon as those who pursued them had gone out, they shut the gate.
Kanaafuu namoonni basaastota sana duukaa buʼuudhaaf karaa gara malkaa Yordaanos geessu irra buʼanii qajeelan; karri sunis akkuma duukaa buutonni sun baʼaniin cufame.
8 Before they had lain down, she came up to them on the roof;
Isheenis utuu basaastonni sun buluuf hin ciciisin gara bantii manaatti ol baatee
9 and she said to the men, "I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
akkana isaaniin jette; “Ani akka Waaqayyo biyya kana isinii kennee fi akka isin sodaachuun nurra buʼes nan beeka; namni biyya kana keessa jiraatu hundinuus sababii keessaniif fuula keessan duratti sodaadhaan hollachaa jira.
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
Yommuu isin Gibxii baatanitti akka itti Waaqayyo Galaana Diimaa fuula keessan duratti gogse, waan isinis Sihoonii fi Oogi mootota Amoorotaa kanneen gama baʼa Yordaanositti guutumaan guutuutti balleessitan sana lamaan gootan dhageenyeerra.
11 As soon as we had heard it, our hearts melted, neither did there remain any more spirit in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
Nu yommuu waaʼee waan kanaa dhageenyetti sababii keessaniif onneen keenya baqxee abdii kutanne. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan ol samii gubbaatti, gad lafa irrattis Waaqaatii.
12 Now therefore, please swear to me by the LORD, since I have dealt kindly with you, that you also will deal kindly with my father's house, and give me a true token;
“Egaa amma sababii ani garaa isinii laafeef isinis akkasuma akka maatii kootiif garaa laaftan maqaa Waaqayyootiin naa kakadhaa. Mallattoo dhugaas naa kennaa;
13 and that you will save alive my father, my mother, my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death."
kunis akka isin lubbuu abbaa kootii, haadha kootii, obbolootaa fi obboleettota kootii, waan kan isaanii taʼe hundaa fi lubbuu keenya duʼa oolchitaniif.”
14 The men said to her, "Our life for yours, even to death, if you do not talk about this business of ours; and it shall be, when the LORD gives us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you."
Namoonnis, “Lubbuun keenya sababii lubbuu keessaniitiif haa badduu! Yoo isin waan nu hojjennu kana namatti himuu baattan nu yommuu Waaqayyo biyya kana nuu kennutti gara laafinaa fi amanamummaadhaan si simanna” jedhanii ishee abdachiisan.
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was on the side of the wall, and she lived on the wall.
Kanaafuu isheen sababii manni isheen keessa jiraattu sun dallaa magaalattiitiin wal qabatuuf foddaa keessaan funyoodhaan gad isaan buufte.
16 She said to them, "Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers find you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward, you may go your way."
Isheenis akkana isaaniin jette; “Akka warri isin duukaa buʼan sun isin hin argineef gara gaarraniitti baqadhaa. Hamma isaan deebiʼanitti guyyoota sadii achitti dhokadhaa; ergasii immoo karaa keessan deemaa.”
17 The men said to her, "We will be guiltless of this your oath which you have made us to swear.
Namoonni sunis akkana jedhaniin; “Kakuun ati nu kakachiifte kun kan nu qabachuu dandaʼu,
18 Look, when we come into the land, you shall bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which you did let us down by. You shall gather to yourself into the house your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father's household.
yoo ati yommuu nu biyyattii seennutti funyoo bildiimaa kana foddaa ittiin gad nu buufte kanatti hiitee abbaa keetii fi haadha kee, obboloota keetii fi maatii kee hunda mana keetti galchite qofa.
19 It shall be that whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, and we will be guiltless. Whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is on him.
Namni tokko iyyuu yoo mana kee keessaa gara daandii alaatti gad baʼe, dhiigni isaa matuma isaatti deebiʼa; nu itti hin gaafatamnu. Nama si wajjin mana kee keessa jiru immoo yoo harki tokko iyyuu isa tuqe, dhiigni isaa mataa keenyatti deebiʼa.
20 But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you have made us to swear."
Garuu yoo ati waan nu hojjennu kana namatti himte, nu kakuu ati nu kakachiifte sana jalaa bilisa baana.”
21 She said, "According to your words, so be it." She sent them away, and they departed. She tied the scarlet line in the window.
Isheenis, “Fudhadheera; akkuma isin jettan haa taʼu” jettee deebifte. Kanaafuu isheen isaan ergite; isaanis kaʼanii deeman. Isheen funyoo bildiimaa sana foddaa sanatti hiite.
22 They went, and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. The pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but did not find them.
Isaanis yommuu baʼanitti gara gaarranii deemanii hamma duukaa buutonni sun karaa irra barbaadanii isaan dhabanii deebiʼanitti guyyaa sadii achi turan.
23 Then the two men returned, descended from the mountain, passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all that had happened to them.
Basaastonni lamaan sunis deebiʼanii gaarran keessaa baʼanii malkaadhaan laga ceʼuudhaan gara Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni dhufan; waan isaan irra gaʼe hundas isatti himan.
24 They said to Joshua, "Truly the LORD has delivered into our hands all the land. Moreover, all the inhabitants of the land melt away before us."
Isaanis Iyyaasuudhaan, “Waaqayyo dhugumaan biyyattii guutuu harka keenyatti kenneera; namoonni hundinuus sababii keenyaaf sodaadhaan hollachaa jiru” jedhan.
