< Judges 1 >
1 After Joshua died, the Israeli people asked Yahweh, “Which [of our tribes] should attack the Canaan people-group first?”
Markii Yashuuca dhintay dabadeed ayay reer binu Israa'iil Rabbiga weyddiiyeen, oo yidhaahdeen, Yaa marka hore xagga reer Kancaan noo hor kici doona oo noo dagaal geli doona?
2 Yahweh replied, “I will enable the tribe of Judah to defeat [IDM] the Canaan people-group.”
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Reer Yahuudah ha baxeen, oo anna dalka gacantoodaan geliyey.
3 The men of Judah went to their fellow Israelis, [the men] from the tribe of Simeon, and said to them, “Come and help us to fight the Canaan people-group [in order that we can take from them] the land [that Yahweh] allotted to us. If you do that, we will go with you [and help you] conquer the people in the land [that Yahweh promised to give to] you.” So the men from the tribe of Simeon went with the men of the tribe of Judah.
Markaasaa reer Yahuudah waxay ku yidhaahdeen walaalahood reer Simecoon, Kaalaya oo markayaga na raaca aynu la dagaallanno reer Kancaane; oo annana sidaas oo kale markiinnaan idin raaci doonnaaye. Markaasay reer Simecoon raaceen.
4 When the men of those two tribes attacked, Yahweh enabled them to defeat 10,000 men of the Canaan people-group and the Periz people-group [DOU] at Bezek [city].
Kolkaasay reer Yahuudah tageen, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu gacantoodii geliyey reer Kancaan iyo reer Feris, oo waxay Beseq kaga laayeen toban kun oo nin.
5 During the battle they found Adoni-Bezek, the leader of the city,
Oo waxay Beseq ka heleen Adonii Beseq, oo way la dagaallameen, oo waxay laayeen reer Kancaan iyo reer Feris.
6 but he [tried to] run away. The Israelis pursued him and caught him. Then they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
Laakiinse Adonii Beseq waa cararay, oo iyana way eryoodeen, wayna qabteen isagii, oo waxay ka gooyeen suulashiisii gacmaha iyo kuwiisii lugaha.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “[My army captured] 70 kings. We cut off their thumbs and big toes. After that, [we forced] those kings to eat scraps that fell from our table. Now God has (paid me back for/done to me like) [what we did to them].” Then the men of Judah took Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Markaasaa Adonii Beseq wuxuu yidhi, Toddobaatan boqor oo suulashoodii gacmaha iyo kuwoodii lugahu ka go'an yihiin ayaa cuntadooda ka urursan jiray miiskayga hoostiisa; oo sidii aan yeelay ayaa Rabbigu ii abaalmariyey. Markaasay isagii keeneen Yeruusaalem, oo halkaasuu ku dhintay.
8 The army of Judah fought against the men of Jerusalem, and they captured the city. With their swords they killed [the people who lived there] and they burned [the houses in] the city.
Oo Reer Yahuudah waxay la dirireen reer Yeruusaalem, oo intay magaaladii qabsadeen ayay dadkeedii ku laayeen seef, magaaladiina dab bay qabadsiiyeen.
9 Later, the men of Judah went down to fight the Canaan people-group who lived in the hilly area, in the desert to the south, and in the foothills [to the west].
Oo dabadeedna reer Yahuudah waxay u kaceen inay la diriraan reer Kancaankii degganaa dalkii buuraha lahaa, iyo kuwii xagga koonfureed, iyo kuwii degganaa dalkii dooxada ahaa.
10 The men of Judah also went to fight against the Canaan people-group who lived in Hebron [city], which at that time was named Kiriath-Arba. They defeated [the armies of kings] Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
Oo reer Yahuudah waxay ku duuleen dadkii reer Kancaan oo degganaa Xebroon, (oo waagii hore Xebroon magaceeda waxaa la odhan jiray Qiryad Arbac), oo waxay laayeen Sheeshay iyo Axiiman iyo Talmay.
11 Then they left that area and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
Oo intay halkaas ka tageen ayay dadkii degganaa Debiir ku duuleen. (Oo waagii hore Debiir magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Qiryad Sefer).
12 [Before they attacked the city], Caleb said to them, “If one of you attacks and captures Kiriath-Sepher, I will allow him to marry my daughter.”
Markaasaa Kaaleeb wuxuu yidhi, Kii la dirira Qiryad Sefer oo qabsada, kaas waxaan u guurin doonaa gabadhayda Caksaah.
13 Othniel, who was the son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz, captured the city. So Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him, to become his wife.
Markaasaa Cotnii'eel ina Qenas, kaasoo ahaa Kaaleeb walaalkiisii yaraa, magaaladii qabsaday; markaasuu wuxuu u guuriyey gabadhiisii Caksaah.
14 When Acsah married Othniel, she told him to ask her father to give him a field. [But she decided to ask him herself. She rode to Caleb’s house on her donkey], and when she got off the donkey, Caleb [could see that something was troubling her. So he] asked her, “What do you want?”
Oo markay u timid ayay kula talisay inuu aabbeheed berrin ka baryo; markaasay dameerkeedii ka soo degtay, oo Kaaleeb wuxuu ku yidhi iyadii, Maxaad doonaysaa?
15 She replied, “I want you to do a favor for me. You have given me some land in the southern desert, [but it is very dry there]. So please also give me some [land that has] springs of water.” So Caleb gave her some land on higher ground that had a spring, and some land on lower ground that also had a spring.
Markaasay ku tidhi, Ii ducee, oo waxaad i siisaa ilo biyo ah, maxaa yeelay, waxaad i siisay dalkii koonfureed. Kolkaasaa Kaaleeb wuxuu siiyey ilihii sare iyo kuwii hooseba.
16 The people of the Ken people-group who were descendants of Moses’ father-in-law left Jericho, which was called ‘The City of Palm Trees’. They went with some of the men of Judah to live with them in the southern desert area, near Arad [city].
Markaasay kii reer Qeyn oo ahaa Muuse seeddigiis reerkiisii ka tageen magaaladii lahayd geedaha timirta ah, oo waxay reer Yahuudah u raaceen xagga cidladii reer Yahuudah taasoo ku taal Caraad xaggeeda koonfureed; oo intay tageen ayay dadkii la degeen.
17 The men of Judah and their fellow Israelis from the tribe of Simeon defeated the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Zephath [city]. They completely destroyed the city and gave it a new name, Hormah, [which means ‘complete destruction’].
Oo reer Yahuudahna waxay raaceen walaalahood reer Simecoon, oo waxay laayeen reer Kancaan oo Sefad degganaa, oo dhammaanteedna way baabbi'iyeen. Oo magaaladii magaceediina waxaa la odhan jiray Xormaah.
18 The men of Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron [cities] and all the land that is near those cities.
Oo reer Yahuudah waxay qabsadeen haddana Gaasa iyo xuduudkeedii, iyo Ashqeloon iyo xuduudkeedii, iyo Ceqroon iyo xuduudkeedii.
19 Yahweh helped the men of Judah to capture the hilly area, but they could not force the people who were living in the plains to leave, because [those people had better weapons—] had iron chariots.
Oo Rabbigu waa la jiray reer Yahuudah, oo wuxuu hortooda ka eryay dadkii degganaa dalkii buuraha lahaa; maxaa yeelay, ma ay eryi karin dadkii dooxadii degganaa, waayo, waxay lahaayeen gaadhifardood bir ah.
20 Hebron [city] was given to Caleb because Moses had promised him that he could have that city. And Caleb forced the three clans descended from Anak to leave that area.
Oo markaasay Xebroon siiyeen Kaaleeb, sidii Muuse markii hore u sheegay; oo halkaas wuxuu ka eryay Canaaq saddexdiisii wiil.
21 But the people of the tribe of Benjamin could not force the people of the Jebus people-group to leave Jerusalem. So, since that time the people of the Jebus people-group have lived in Jerusalem with the people of the tribe of Benjamin.
Oo reer Benyaamiin ma ay eryin dadkii reer Yebuus oo Yeruusaalem degganaa; laakiinse reer Yebuus waxay Yeruusaalem la degganaayeen reer Benyaamiin ilaa maantadan la joogo.
22 The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh went to fight against [the men of] Bethel [city], and Yahweh helped them.
Oo reer Yuusufna waxay ku kaceen Beytel; oo Rabbiguna wuu la jiray iyagii.
23 They sent some spies to [find out everything that they could find out about] Bethel, which was previously called Luz.
Oo reer Yuusufna waxay Beytel u direen ilaallo soo basaasta. (Magaaladaas markii hore waxaa magaceeda la odhan jiray Luus.)
24 The spies saw a man who was coming out of the city. They said to him, “If you show us a way to get into the city, we will be kind to you [and we will not kill you].”
Markaasaa ilaaladii waxay arkeen nin magaalada ka soo baxaya, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye, na tus iridda magaalada laga galo, oo annaguna wanaag baannu kuu falaynaa.
25 So the man showed them a way to enter the city. The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh entered the city and killed all the people with their swords, but they did not kill the man [who showed them how to get into the city], and they did not kill his family.
Markaasuu iyagii tusay iriddii magaalada laga geli jiray, oo waxay dadkii magaalada ku laayeen seef, laakiinse ninkii iyo xaaskiisii oo dhanba way iska sii daayeen.
26 That man went to the area where the descendants of Heth lived, and built a city. He named the city Luz, and that is still the name of that city.
Markaasaa ninkii wuxuu tegey dalkii reer Xeed, oo halkaasuu magaalo ka dhisay, oo magaceediina wuxuu u bixiyey Luus, kaasoo ah magaceeda ilaa maantadan la joogo.
27 There were people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Beth-Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, and Megiddo [cities] and in the surrounding villages. [The men of] the tribe of Manasseh did not force those people to leave those towns, because the people of the Canaan people-group were determined to stay there.
Oo reer Manasehna ma ay eryin dadkii degganaa Beytshe'aan iyo magaalooyinkeedii, ama kuwii Tacanaag iyo magaalooyinkeedii, ama dadkii degganaa Door iyo magaalooyinkeedii, ama dadkii degganaa Yiblecaam iyo magaalooyinkeedii, ama dadkii degganaa Megiddoo iyo magaalooyinkeedii, laakiinse reer Kancaan waxay doonayeen inay dalkaas degganaadaan.
28 Later, the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), and they forced the people of the Canaan people-group to work for them [as their slaves], but they did not force all the people of the Canaan people-group to leave their land.
Oo markii ay reer binu Israa'iil xoogaysteen ayay reer Kancaan addoonsadeen oo mana ay wada eryin.
29 [The men of] the tribe of Ephraim did not force the people of the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer [city]. So the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live with the people of the tribe of Ephraim.
Oo reer Efrayimna ma ay eryin dadkii reer Kancaan oo degganaa Geser; laakiinse reer Kancaan iyagay la degganaayeen Geser.
30 [The men of] the tribe of Zebulun did nor compel the people of the Canaan people-group who were living in Kitron and Nahalol [cities] to leave. They stayed there and lived among the people of the tribe of Zebulun, but the people of Zebulun forced them to work for them as their slaves.
Oo reer Sebulunna ma ay eryin dadkii degganaa Qitroon, iyo dadkii degganaa Nahalaal, laakiinse reer Kancaan waxay degganaayeen iyaga dhexdooda, oo addoommo ayay u noqdeen.
31 [The men of] the tribe of Asher did not force the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphek and Rehob [cities] to leave.
Oo reer Aasheerna ma ay eryin dadkii degganaa Cakoo, ama dadkii degganaa Siidoon, ama kuwii Axlaab, ama kuwii Aksiib, ama kuwii Xelbaah, ama kuwii Afiiq, ama kuwii Rexob.
32 So the people of the tribe of Asher lived among them.
Laakiinse reer Aasheer waxay dhex degganaayeen reer Kancaan oo ahaa dadkii dalka degganaa, maxaa yeelay, iyagu ma ay eryin.
33 [The men of] the tribe of Naphtali did not compel the people who lived in Beth-Shemesh and Beth-Anath [cities] to leave, so the people in those two cities continued to live there, but the people of the Canaan people-group were forced to work as the slaves of the people of the tribe of Naphtali.
Oo reer Naftaalina ma ay eryin dadkii degganaa Beytshemesh ama dadkii degganaa Beytcanaad; laakiinse wuxuu degganaa reer Kancaan dhexdooda, kuwaasoo ahaa dadkii dalka degganaa; habase yeeshee dadkii degganaa Beytshemesh iyo Beytcanaad addoommo ayaa u noqdeen iyaga.
34 The people of the Amor people-group forced the people of the tribe of Dan to live in the hills. They did not allow them to come down [and live] on the plain.
Markaasaa reer Amor waxay ku dirqiyeen reer Daan dalkii buuraha ahaa, maxaa yeelay, ma ay u oggolaan inay u soo degaan xagga dooxada.
35 The people of the Amor people-group were determined to stay in Heres Mountain and in Aijalon and Shaalbim [cities]. But when the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), they forced the people of the Amor people-group to work as their slaves.
Laakiinse reer Amor waxay doonayeen inay degganaadaan Buur Xeres oo ku taal Ayaaloon iyo Shacalbiim; laakiinse waxaa ka adkaatay gacantii reer Yuusuf, oo sidaas daraaddeed addoommo ayay u noqdeen.
36 The land where the Amor people-group lived extended from Scorpion Pass [toward the west] beyond Sela [town], up into the hilly area.
Oo xuduudkii reer Amorna wuxuu ka bilaabmayay meesha laga koro Caqrabbiim marka laga bilaabo Selac iyo inta ka sarraysa.
