< Joshua 22 >
1 Joshua then summoned the leaders of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh.
Markaasaa Yashuuca u yeedhay reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis,
2 He said to them, “You have done everything that Moses, who served Yahweh [well], told you to do. You have also done what I told you to do.
oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waad xajiseen kulli wixii uu addoonkii Rabbiga oo Muuse ahaa idinku amray, oo codkaygana waad dhegaysateen oo waad yeesheen kulli wixii aan idinku amray.
3 For a long time you have helped the other tribes [to defeat their enemies]. You have obeyed everything that Yahweh your God commanded you to do.
Oo waagaas ilaa maantadan la joogo walaalihiin kama aydnaan tegin, laakiinse waad xajiseen amarkii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
4 He promised to give peace to us Israelis, and he has done what he promised. So now you may go back to your homes, to the land that Moses gave to you, on the east side of the Jordan [River].
Oo haatan Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu walaalihiin buu nasiyey, siduu markii hore kula hadlay; haddaba noqda, oo taga teendhooyinkiinnii, iyo dalkii hantida idiin ahaa, oo addoonkii Rabbiga oo Muuse ahaa idinka siiyey Webi Urdun shishadiisa.
5 Moses also commanded you to love Yahweh your God and to obey his commands, and to continue to worship him and serve him by everything that you think and everything that you do.”
Laakiinse aad iyo aad u dadaala inaad yeeshaan amarkii iyo sharcigii uu addoonkii Rabbiga ee Muuse ahaa idinku amray, kuwaasoo ah inaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah jeclaataan, oo aad ku socotaan jidadkiisa oo dhan, oo aad amarradiisa xajisaan, oo aad isaga aad u sii xajisataan, oo aad qalbigiinna oo dhan iyo naftiinna oo dhan ugu adeegtaan.
6 Then Joshua blessed them and said goodbye to them, and they [prepared to] leave and return to their homes [on the east side of the Jordan River].
Markaasuu Yashuuca u duceeyey oo iska diray, oo iyana waxay tageen teendhooyinkoodii.
7 Moses had given the Bashan region to half the tribe of Manasseh, and land on the west side of the Jordan [River] to the other half of the tribe. Before they left, he [asked God to] bless them.
Oo reer Manaseh badhkiis Muuse wuxuu dhaxal ka siiyey Baashaan dhexdeeda; laakiinse badhkii kale Yashuuca ayaa dal ka siiyey walaalahood dhexdooda meel Webi Urdun ka shishaysa oo xagga galbeed ka xigta. Oo weliba Yashuuca markuu iyagii iska diray, oo ay teendhooyinkoodii tageen, ayuu u duceeyey iyaga,
8 He said, “Go back to your homes and to all the things that you have taken from your enemies—the many animals and silver and gold and [things made of] bronze and iron, and many beautiful clothes. But you should share some of those things with other people of your tribe.”
oo intuu la hadlay ayuu ku yidhi, Teendhooyinkiinnii kula noqda maal badan, iyo lo' aad u tiro badan, iyo lacag, iyo dahab, iyo naxaas, iyo bir, iyo dhar aad u badan; oo boolidii cadaawayaashiinna laga helay walaalihiin la qaybsada.
9 So the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh left the other Israelis at Shiloh in Canaan land, to return to their homes in the Gilead region. That was the area that belonged to them. It had been allotted to them by Moses as Yahweh had commanded.
Markaasaa reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis ayaa noqday, oo ka tegey reer binu Israa'iil oo joogay Shiiloh taasoo ku taal dalkii Kancaan, inay u kacaan dalkii Gilecaad, kaasoo ahaa dalkii hantidooda ahaa, ee ay ku hantiyeen amarkii Rabbigu Muuse u soo dhiibay.
10 The people from those three tribes arrived near the western side of the Jordan River, at a town called Geliloth. There they built a large altar. [Then they crossed the Jordan River to the Gilead region].
Oo markay yimaadeen gobolkii u dhowaa Webi Urdun oo ku yaalay dalkii Kancaan ayay reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis Webi Urdun agtiisa ka dhiseen meel allabari oo muuq weyn.
11 But the other Israelis who were still at Shiloh heard about the altar that those men had built.
Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil waxay maqleen in la yidhi, Reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis ayaa meel allabari ka dhisay darafka dalka Kancaan, meeshaas oo ah gobolka u dhow Webi Urdun oo ah dinaca ay leeyihiin reer binu Israa'iil.
12 They became very angry with the men of those tribes, so they decided to fight them.
Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil ay taas maqleen ayaa shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu ku ururay Shiiloh inay dagaal ugu baxaan iyaga.
13 The Israelis sent Phinehas, who was the son of Eleazar the Supreme Priest, to [talk with] the people of those three tribes.
Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay xagga reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis oo joogay dalkii Gilecaad u direen Fiinexaas oo ahaa wiilkii wadaadkii ahaa Elecaasaar.
14 They also sent one leader from each of the ten tribes that were still at Shiloh. Each of them was a leader of his clan.
Oo waxay isagii ku dareen toban amiir, oo amiirba wuxuu ka socday qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil midkood, oo mid waluba wuxuu ahaa kii madaxda u ahaa reerahooda ku jira kumanyaalka reer binu Israa'iil.
15 Those leaders went to the Gilead region to talk to the people of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh. They said,
Markaasay u yimaadeen reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis oo joogay dalkii Gilecaad, oo intay la hadleen ayay ku yidhaahdeen,
16 “All the other Israelis are asking, ‘Why have you rebelled against the God whom we Israelis [worship] by building an altar for yourselves?
Shirkii Rabbiga oo dhammu sidan bay leeyihiin, Waa maxay xadgudubkan aad ku samayseen Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, idinkoo ka leexday inaad Rabbiga la socotaan, oo meel allabari dhistay, si aad maanta Rabbiga ugu caasiyowdaan?
17 Have you forgotten what happened at Peor, [when some Israelis sinned by worshiping the god that the Moab people-group worship]? Many Israelis became very sick and died because of that sin, and we are still suffering because of their sin.
Miyuu nagu yar yahay dembigii Fecoor oo aannan iska nadiifin ilaa maantadan la joogo in kastoo ay belaayo ku soo degtay shirka Rabbiga,
18 Are you now turning away from obeying Yahweh and refusing to do what he wants? If you do not stop rebelling against Yahweh today, he will be angry with all of us Israelis tomorrow.’
inaad maanta ka leexataan inaad Rabbiga la socotaan? Oo caasinimadii aad maanta Rabbiga ku caasiyowdeen aawadeed ayuu berrito ugu cadhoon doonaa shirka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan.
19 “If [you think that Yahweh considers] that your land here is not suitable for worshiping him, come back to our land where Yahweh’s Sacred Tent is. We can share our land with you. But do not rebel against Yahweh and against us by building another altar for Yahweh our God.
Habase yeeshee, haddii dalkii hantidiinna ahaa aanu nadiif ahayn, de markaas u soo gudba dalka Rabbiga hantidiisa ah, oo uu taambuuggii Rabbigu ku dhex jiro, oo nala qayb qaata; laakiinse Rabbiga ha ku caasiyoobina, oo annagana ha nagu caasiyoobina, oo ha dhisina meel allabari oo aan ahayn tii Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah.
20 Do you remember what happened when Zerah’s son Achan refused to obey [Yahweh’s command to destroy everything in Jericho]? That one man disobeyed God’s command, but many [HYP] other Israelis were punished. Achan died because of his sin, but other Israelis also died.”
Caakaan ina Serax miyaanu ku xadgudbin alaabtii la nidray, oo taas daraaddeed miyaan cadho ugu dhicin shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan? Oo ninkaasu keligiis kuma uu dhiman dembigiisii.
21 The [leaders of the] tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh replied,
Markaasaa reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaad iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis waxay u jawaabeen oo la hadleen kuwii madaxda u ahaa kumanyaalka reer binu Israa'iil, oo ku yidhaahdeen,
22 “Yahweh, the Almighty God, knows [why we did that], and we want you to know, too. If we have done something wrong [against Yahweh], you may kill us.
Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ilaahyada, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ilaahyadu wuu og yahay, oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa inuu ogaadaa, haddii taasu caasinimo tahay, ama xadgudub Rabbiga ka gees ah (maanta ha na badbaadin),
23 If we have disobeyed one of Yahweh’s laws, we request that he should punish us. We did not build that new altar to completely burn animals as sacrifices to Yahweh, or to offer on it sacrifices of grain or sacrifices to maintain fellowship with God.
iyo haddii aan meel allabari u dhisannay inaannu Rabbiga kaga leexanno, ama haddii aannu u dhisnay in lagu dul bixiyo qurbaan la gubo, ama qurbaan hadhuudh ah, ama in lagu dul bixiyo allabari ah qurbaanno nabaadiino, sidaas hadday tahay, Rabbiga qudhiisu ha na weyddiiyo;
24 “This is the reason that we built that altar: We were afraid/worried that some day your descendants would say that our descendants are not true Israelis. We were afraid that then they would say, ‘You are not allowed to worship Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship].
oo haddii aannan taas u samaynin feejignaan iyo sabab aawadood, annagoo leh, Waa dambe carruurtiinnu waxay la hadli doonaan carruurtayada, oo waxay ku odhan doonaan, Maxaa idinka galay Rabbiga Ilaaha u ah reer binu Israa'iil?
25 Yahweh caused the Jordan River to be a boundary between us and you people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad. So you are not allowed to worship Yahweh.’ We were worried that your descendants would force our descendants to stop worshiping Yahweh.
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu Webi Urdun ka dhigay soohdin inoo dhexaysa annaga iyo idinka, reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaadow. Qayb kuma lihidin Rabbiga. Oo sidaasay carruurtiinnu carruurtayada uga joojin doonaan cabsida Rabbiga.
26 “That is the reason that we decided to build that [new] altar. But it is not an altar for completely burning sacrifices of animals and [burning other] sacrifices.
Oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaannu isnidhi, Haddaba aynu isu diyaarinno inaynu dhisanno meel allabari, oo aan lagu bixin qurbaan la gubo ama allabari,
27 We built that new altar to prove/show to you and to us and to all of our descendants that we worship Yahweh by completely burning animal sacrifices and offerings of grain and offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh [only at the place Yahweh chooses]. We do not want your descendants to say to our descendants, ‘You do not belong to Yahweh.’
laakiinse waxay noqon doontaa markhaati inoo dhexeeya annaga iyo idinka, iyo farcankeenna inaga dambeeya, si aannu Rabbiga hortiisa ugu adeegno annagoo wadna qurbaannadayada la gubo, iyo allabaryadayada, iyo qurbaannadayada nabaadiinada, inaan carruurtiinnu waa dambe ku odhan carruurtayada, Qayb kuma lihidin Rabbiga.
28 “In the future, if your descendants say that, our descendants can say, ‘Look at the altar that our ancestors made! It is exactly like Yahweh’s altar [that our ancestors built], but we do not burn sacrifices on it. It only shows that we are Israelis!’
Sidaas daraaddeed waxaannu isnidhi, Markay sidaas waa dambe inagu yidhaahdaan innaga ama farcankeenna, waxay noqon doontaa oo aannu ku odhan doonnaa, Bal eega, hannaankii meeshii allabariga oo Rabbiga, ee ay awowayaasheen dhiseen oo aan lagu bixin qurbaanno la gubo ama allabari, laakiinse waa markhaati inoo dhexeeya annaga iyo idinka.
29 We certainly do not want to rebel against Yahweh or stop doing what he desires, by building an altar for completely burning some sacrifices and burning grain offerings and making [other] sacrifices. [We know that] there is only one true altar for Yahweh our God, and it is in front of the Sacred Tent [at Shiloh].”
Ilaah ha naga fogeeyo inaannu Rabbiga ku caasiyowno, oo aannu ka leexanno lasocodkii Rabbiga, oo aannu meel allabari u dhisno qurbaan la gubo, iyo qurbaan hadhuudh ah, ama allabari, taasoo aan ahayn meeshii allabariga Rabbiga Ilaaheen ah ee ku hor taal taambuuggiisa.
30 When Phinehas the priest and the other [ten] leaders heard what they said, they were pleased.
Oo wadaadkii Fiinexaas ahaa iyo amiirradii shirka, oo ahaa madaxdii kumanyaalka reer binu Israa'iil oo isaga la socday, kolkay maqleen warkii ay reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo reer Manaseh badhkiis ku hadleen ayay aad ugu farxeen.
31 So Phinehas said to them, “Now we know that Yahweh is with all of us Israelis, and that you were not rebelling against him [when you built that altar]. And we know that Yahweh will not punish us Israelis [because of your having done that].”
Markaasaa wadaadkii ahaa Fiinexaas ina Elecaasaar wuxuu ku yidhi reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaad iyo reer Manaseh, Maanta waannu og nahay in Rabbigu ina dhex joogo, maxaa yeelay, idinku xadgudubkan kuma aydnaan samayn Rabbiga. Haddaba idinku waxaad reer binu Israa'iil ka samatabbixiseen gacantii Rabbiga.
32 Then Phinehas and the Israeli leaders left the people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad in the Gilead region, and returned to Canaan. There they told the other Israelis what had happened.
Markaasaa wadaadkii ahaa Fiinexaas ina Elecaasaar, iyo amiirradii waxay ka noqdeen reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaad oo joogay dalkii Gilecaad, oo waxay tageen dalkii reer Kancaan, oo reer binu Israa'iil ayay warkii u sheegeen.
33 They were pleased, and they thanked God. And they did not talk any more about fighting against the people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad and destroying everything in their land.
Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waa ku farxeen warkaas. Markaasaa reer binu Israa'iil Ilaah ammaaneen, oo mar dambena kuma ay hadlin inay dagaal ugu kacaan, oo ay baabbi'iyaan dalka ay reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaad deggan yihiin.
34 The people of the tribes of Reuben and Gad named their new altar ‘A reminder to us all that Yahweh is God’.
Markaasaa reer Ruubeen iyo reer Gaad waxay meeshii allabariga u bixiyeen Markhaati; waayo, waxay yidhaahdeen, Waa markhaati na dhex yaal in Rabbigu Ilaah yahay.
