Deuteronomy 20
1 When thou shalt go out to wage war against thine enemy, and shalt see the horses and chariots of a people more in number than thou, thou shalt not be afraid of them, —for, Yahweh thy God, is with thee, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
Markaad dagaal ugu baxdaan cadaawayaashiinna, oo aad aragtaan fardo iyo gaadhifardood iyo dad idinka sii badan, waa inaydaan ka cabsan, waayo, waxaa idinla jira Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah oo idinka soo bixiyey dalkii Masar.
2 And it shall be, when ye are coming nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people;
Oo markaad dagaalka ku soo dhowaataan, wadaadku waa inuu dadka u soo dhowaadaa oo la hadlaa,
3 and shall say unto them, —Hear, O Israel, ye are coming near to-day, unto battle against your enemies, —let not your heart faint do not fear nor start nor quake because of them.
oo ha ku yidhaahdo, Reer binu Israa'iilow, maqla, maanta waxaad ku soo dhowaanaysaan dagaal aad cadaawayaashiinna kula diriraysaan, haddaba qalbigiinnu yuusan itaal darnaan, oo ha cabsanina, hana gariirina, iyagana ha ka baqina,
4 For Yahweh your God, is he that is going with you, —to fight for you against your enemies to save you.
maxaa yeelay, Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah ayaa ah kan idinla socda inuu idiin dagaallamo oo cadaawayaashiinna idiinka hiiliyo si uu idiin badbaadiyo.
5 Then shall the officers speak unto the people saying, Who is the man that hath built a new house and hath not dedicated it? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and, another man dedicate it.
Oo saraakiishu dadka ha la hadleen oo ha ku yidhaahdeen, Ninkee baa guri cusub dhistay oo aan weli u ducaysan? Kaasu ha tago oo gurigiisii ha ku noqdo, waaba intaasoo intuu dagaalka ku dhinto uu nin kale u ducaystaaye.
6 And who is the man that hath planted a vineyard and hath not thrown it open? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and another man, throw it open.
Oo ninkee baa beer canab ah beertay oo aan weli midhihiisii ku isticmaalin? Kaasu ha tago oo gurigiisii ha ku noqdo, waaba intaasoo intuu dagaalka ku dhinto uu nin kale midhihiisa ku isticmaalaaye.
7 And who is the man that hath betrothed a wife and hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and, another man, take her.
Oo ninkee bay naagu u doonan tahay, oo aan weli guursan? Kaasu ha tago oo gurigiisii ha ku noqdo, waaba intaasoo intuu dagaalka ku dhinto uu nin kale guursadaaye.
8 Then shall the officers further speak unto the people, and say—Who is the man that is fearful and faint-hearted? let him go and return unto his house, —lest his brethren’s heart melt as well as his heart.
Oo saraakiishu weliba dadka ha la sii hadleen oo ha ku yidhaahdeen, Ninkee baa cabsanaya oo qalbigiisu itaal daranyahay? Kaasu ha tago oo gurigiisii ha ku noqdo, waaba intaasoo qalbiga walaalihiis uu u baqaa sida qalbigiisoo kale.
9 And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking unto the people, then shall they appoint captains of hosts at the head of the people.
Oo markay saraakiishu dadka lahadliddiisa dhammeeyaan waa inay doortaan saraakiil ciidameed inay dadka madax u noqdaan.
10 When thou shalt come nigh unto a city, to fight against it, —then shalt thou proclaim unto it—peace,
Markaad magaalo ugu soo dhowaataan inaad la dirirtaan, waxaad u naadisaan war nabdeed.
11 and it shall be if peace, be the answer it giveth thee, and it open unto thee, then shall it be, that, all the people that are found therein, shall become thy tributaries and shall serve thee.
Oo hadday jawaab nabdeed idin siiyaan oo ay albaabka idinka furaan, waa inay dadka magaaladaas dhexdeeda laga helo oo dhammu addoommo idiin noqdaan oo ay idiin wada adeegaan.
12 But if it will not make peace with thee, but will make war with thee, then shalt thou lay siege to it;
Oo hadday idinla nabdi waayaan, laakiinse ay doonayaan inay idinla diriraan, markaas waa inaad hareeraysaan,
13 and Yahweh thy God will deliver it into thy hand, —and thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword;
oo markii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu magaalada idiin soo gacangeliyo, dadkeeda labka ah oo dhan waa inaad seef ku wada laysaan,
14 but the women and the little ones and the cattle and all that shall be in the city—all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take as thy prey, —so shalt thou eat the spoil of thine enemies, whom Yahweh thy God hath delivered unto thee.
laakiinse dumarka iyo dhallaanka iyo xoolaha iyo waxa magaalada ku jira oo dhan, xataa wax kasta oo laga dhacaba waa inaad booli ahaan u qaadataan, oo waa inaad cuntaan xoolihii aad cadaawayaashiinna ka dhacdeen oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siiyey.
15 Thus, shalt thou do unto all the cities that are very far away from thee, —which are not of the cities of those nations.
Oo sidaas waa inaad u wada gashaan magaalooyinka idinka fog oo aan ahayn magaalooyinka quruumahan.
16 But of the cities of these peoples which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee as an inheritance, shalt thou not save alive, any breathing thing.
Laakiinse magaalooyinka dadyowga Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu dhaxalka idiin siiyey waa inaydaan wax nool oo neefsada dhexdooda ku reebin,
17 But thou shalt devote them to destruction—the Hittites and the Amorites the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, —as Yahweh thy God hath commanded thee:
illowse waa inaad dhammaantood u wada baabbi'isaan, kuwaasoo ah reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Kancaan, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuusba, siduu Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idiinku amray,
18 lest they teach you to do, according to all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods, —and so ye sin against Yahweh your God.
si ayan idiin barin inaad samaysaan waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah oo ay ilaahyadooda ku sameeyeen oo dhan, oo aydaan idinku saas ugu dembaabin Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
19 When thou shalt besiege a city for many days to fight against it, to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by wielding against them an axe, when of them, thou mightest eat, them, there-fore shalt thou not cut down, —for, Is the tree of the field, a man, that it should enter, because of thee into the siege?
Oo markaad wakhti dheer magaalo dagaal ku hareeraynaysaan si aad u qabsataan, waa inaydaan dhirteeda faas ku baabbi'in, waayo, wax baad ka cuni karaysaan, saas aawadeed waa inaydaan jarin. Waayo, bal geedka duurka ma nin baa oo aad saas darteed u weerartaan?
20 Nevertheless, the tree of which thou knowest that it is, not a tree yielding food, the same, mayest thou destroy, and cut down, —and so build up a siege-work against the city which is making war with thee, until thou hast subdued it.
Waxaad keliyahoo baabbi'isaan oo jartaan dhirta aad garanaysaan inayan ahayn dhir la cuno, oo magaalada idinla dirirayso waa inaad hareeraheeda ka dhisataan dhufaysyo ilaa ay dhacdo.
