Judges 18
1 In those days there was no king in Israel. The tribe of the descendants of Dan was looking for a territory to live in, for up to that day they had not received any inheritance from among the tribes of Israel.
Waagaas reer binu Israa'iil boqor ma ay lahayn; oo qabiilkii reer Daan waxay wakhtigaas doonayeen dal dhaxal u ah oo ay degaan; waayo, ilaa maalintaas dhaxal kama ay helin qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil.
2 The people of Dan sent five men from the whole number of their tribe, men who were experienced warriors from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to scout the land on foot, and to look it over. They said to them, “Go and look over the land.” They came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and they spent the night there.
Markaasay reer Daan qabiilkoodii oo dhan ka direen shan nin oo xoog leh, oo waxay ka direen Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool, inay dalka soo basaasaan oo ay soo baadhaan; oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Taga oo dalka soo baadha. Markaasay yimaadeen gurigii Miikaah oo ku yiil dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, oo meeshaasay u hoydeen.
3 When they were near Micah's house, they recognized the speech of the young Levite. So they stopped and asked him, “Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? Why are you here?”
Oo markay gurigii Miikaah ag joogeen ayay garteen codkii ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo reer Laawi. Markaasay halkaas ku leexdeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War yaa halkan ku keenay? Oo maxaad ka samaysaa meeshan? Maxaadse ku haysataa halkan?
4 He said to them, “This is what Micah has done for me: He has hired me to become his priest.”
Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Sidan iyo sidaas ayaa Miikaah ii sameeyey, wuuna i kiraystay, oo anna waxaan noqday wadaadkiisii.
5 They said to him, “Please seek the advice of God, so we may know whether the journey we are going on will be successful.”
Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye, bal Ilaah talo noo weyddii, inaannu ogaanno bal inaannu jidkayaga aan ku soconno ku soo liibaanayno iyo in kale.
6 The priest said to them, “Go in peace. Yahweh will lead you in the way you should go.”
Markaasuu wadaadkii ku yidhi, Nabad ku taga; waayo, jidka aad ku socotaan wuxuu hor yaallaa Rabbiga.
7 Then the five men left and came to Laish, and they saw that the people were living in safety, in the same way the Sidonians lived, undisturbed and secure. There was no one who conquered them or who oppressed them in any way in the land. They lived far away from the Sidonians and had no dealings with anyone.
Markaasay shantii nin tageen, oo yimaadeen Layish oo waxay arkeen dadkii halkaa joogay oo ammaan ku deggan siday reer Siidoon u xasilloonaayeen oo ammaan u ahaayeen oo kale; waayo, dalka laguma arag wax amar haysta, oo ka xishoodsiinaya, oo reer Siidoonna way ka fogaayeen, oo ninnaba lama ay macaamiloon jirin.
8 They returned to their tribe in Zorah and Eshtaol. Their relatives asked them, “What is your report?”
Markaasay nimankii walaalahood ugu yimaadeen Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool. Kolkaasaa walaalahood waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War bal warrama.
9 They said, “Come! Let us attack them! We have seen the land and it is very good. Are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to attack and conquer the land.
Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War kaca oo ina keena aynu ku duullee, waayo, waannu soo aragnay dalkii, oo aad buu u wanaagsan yahay. Miyaad iska aamusnaanaysaan? War ha ka caajisina inaad tagtaan oo aad dalka gashaan oo dhaxashaan.
10 When you go, you will come to a people who think they are secure, and the land is wide! God has given it to you—a place that does not lack anything in the land.”
Markaad tagtaan waxaad u tegi doontaan dad ammaan ah, oo dalkuna waa ballaadhan yahay; waayo, Ilaah gacantuu idiin geliyey, oo waa meel aan waxba looga baahnayn waxa dhulka laga helo oo dhan.
11 Six hundred men of the tribe of Dan, armed with weapons of war, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol.
Markaas reer Daan waxaa halkaas kaga bixitimay oo Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool ka tegey lix boqol oo nin oo hubkii dagaalka xidhan.
12 They went up and camped at Kiriath Jearim, in Judah. This is why people called that place Mahaneh Dan to this day; it is west of Kiriath Jearim.
Markaasay baxeen oo degeen Qiryad Yecaariim oo ku taal Yahuudah; sidaas daraaddeed meeshaas waxay u bixiyeen Maxaneh Daan, oo ilaa maanta waa la yidhaahdaa; oo waxay ka dambaysaa Qiryad Yecaariim.
13 They went away from there to the hill country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah.
Oo halkaasna way ka tageen oo waxay u kaceen dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, markaasay yimaadeen gurigii Miikaah.
14 Then the five men who had gone to scout the country of Laish said to their relatives, “Do you know that in these houses there are an ephod, household gods, a carved figure, and a cast metal figure? Decide now what you will do.”
Kolkaasaa shantii nin oo waddanka Layish soo basaastay waxay ku jawaabeen oo walaalahood ku yidhaahdeen, War ma og tihiin inay guryahan ku jiraan eefod iyo teraafiim, iyo sanam xardhan iyo sanam la shubay? Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ka fiirsada waxaad samayn lahaydeen.
15 So they turned in there and came to the house of the young Levite, at the house of Micah, and they greeted him.
Oo intay halkaas ku soo leexdeen ayay yimaadeen gurigii ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo reer Laawi, kaasoo ahaa gurigii Miikaah, wayna nabdaadiyeen.
16 Now the six hundred Danites, armed with weapons of war, stood at the entrance of the gate.
Markaasay lixdii boqol oo nin ee hubka dagaalka xidhnayd ee ahaa reer Daan ag istaageen iridda laga soo galo.
17 The five men who had gone to scout out the land went there and they took the carved figure, the ephod, the household gods, and the cast metal figure, while the priest stood by the opening of the gate with the six hundred men armed with weapons of war.
Markaasay shantii nin oo dalka soo basaastay yimaadeen oo gudaha galeen, oo waxay soo qaateen sanamkii xardhanaa, iyo eefodkii, iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii la shubay; oo wadaadkiina wuxuu iridda laga soo galo isla taagay lixdii boqol oo nin ee xidhnayd hubka dagaalka.
18 When these went into Micah's house and took the carved figure, the ephod, the household gods, and the cast metal figure, the priest said to them, “What are you doing?”
Oo kuwaasu markay galeen gurigii Miikaah, oo ay soo qaateen sanamkii xardhanaa, iyo eefodkii, iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii la shubay, ayuu wadaadkii ku yidhi, War maxaad samaynaysaan?
19 They said to him, “Be quiet! Put your hand on your mouth and come with us, and be to us a father and a priest. Is it better for you to be priest for the house of one man, or to be priest for a tribe and a clan in Israel?”
Oo iyana waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Iska aamus, oo gacanta afka saar, ee haddaba na soo raac, oo noo noqo aabbe iyo wadaad; bal kee baa kuu roon, inaad nin keliya reerkiis wadaad u ahaatid, iyo inaad wadaad u ahaatid qabiil iyo jilib reer binu Israa'iil ka mid ah?
20 The priest's heart was glad. He took the ephod, the household gods, and the carved figure, and went along with the people.
Markaasuu wadaadkii qalbiga ka farxay, oo qaaday eefodkii iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii xardhanaa, oo wuxuu dhex galay dadka.
21 So they turned and went away. They put the small children in front of themselves, as well as the cattle and their possessions.
Markaasay noqdeen oo tageen, oo waxay iska horraysiiyeen dhallaankii, iyo xoolihii iyo alaabtii.
22 When they were a good distance from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house were called together, and they caught up with the Danites.
Oo markay ka fogaadeen gurigii Miikaah ayaa raggii joogay guryihii u dhowaa gurigii Miikaah soo wada ururay, oo waxay gaadheen reer Daan.
23 They shouted to the Danites, and they turned and said to Micah, “Why have you been called together?”
Oo waxay u dhawaaqeen reer Daan. Iyana intay ku soo jeesteen ayay Miikaah ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaa kaa qaylisiinaya oo aad guutada caynkan ah u soo kaxaysatay?
24 He said, “You stole the gods that I made, you have taken my priest, and you are leaving. What else do I have left? How can you ask me, 'What is bothering you?'”
Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaad iga qaadateen ilaahyadaydii aan sameeyey, iyo wadaadkaygii, oo waad tagteen, haddaba maxaan kaloo haystaa? Haddaba sidee baad ii leedihiin, War maxaa kaa qaylisiinaya?
25 The people of Dan said to him, “You should not let us hear you say anything, or some very angry men will attack you, and you and your family will be killed.”
Markaasay reer Daan ku yidhaahdeen, War hoy, codkaaga yaan dhexdayada laga maqlin, waaba intaasoo ay ragga cadhaysanu ku dilaan, oo aad weydaa naftaada iyo nafta reerkaagaba.
26 Then the people of Dan went their way. When Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house.
Markaasay reer Daan iska tageen. Oo Miikaahna markuu arkay inay aad uga xoog badan yihiin ayuu iska noqday oo gurigiisii tegey.
27 The people of Dan took what Micah had made, as well as his priest, and they came to Laish, to a people who were undisturbed and secure and they struck them with the edge of the sword and burned the city.
Oo iyana waxay la tageen wixii Miikaah sameeyey, iyo wadaadkiisii, markaasay yimaadeen Layish, iyo dad xasilloon oo ammaan u fadhiya, oo waxay ku laayeen seef; oo magaaladiina dab bay ku gubeen.
28 There was no one to rescue them because it was a long way from Sidon, and they had no dealings with anyone. It was in the valley that is near Beth Rehob. The Danites rebuilt the city and lived there.
Oo badbaadiyena ma ay lahayn, maxaa yeelay, Siidoon way ka fogayd, oo ninnaba lama ay macaamiloon jirin; oo waxay ku tiil dooxada u dhow Beytrexob. Oo iyana intay magaaladii dhiseen ayay degeen.
29 They named the city Dan, the name of Dan their ancestor, who was one of Israel's sons. But the name of the city used to be Laish.
Oo magaaladii magaceediina waxay u bixiyeen Daan, oo waxay ku sammiyeen magicii awowgood Daan, kii u dhashay Israa'iil; habase yeeshee magaalada magaceedu wuxuu markii hore ahaa Layish.
30 The people of Dan set up the carved figure for themselves. Jonathan son of Gershom, son of Moses, he and his sons were priests for the tribe of the Danites until the day of the land's captivity.
Markaasay reer Daan qotonsadeen sanamkii xardhanaa; oo Yoonaataan oo ahaa ina Gershoom oo ina Muuse ahaa iyo wiilashiisiiba waxay wadaaddo u ahaayeen qabiilkii reer Daan ilaa wakhtigii dalka la qabsaday.
31 So they worshiped Micah's carved figure that he made as long as the house of God was at Shiloh.
Oo waxay qotonsadeen sanamkii xardhanaa oo Miikaah sameeyey, oo intii guriga Ilaah Shiiloh ku yiil oo dhan ayuu oolli jiray.
