Maimaitawar Shari’a 31
1 Sai Musa ya fita ya kuma faɗa waɗannan kalmomi ga dukan Isra’ila cewa,
When Moses/I finished saying all that to the Israeli people,
2 “Yanzu shekaruna ɗari da ashirin ne, ba na iya kaiwa da komowa. Ubangiji ya ce mini, ‘Ba za ka haye Urdun ba.’
he/I said to them, “Now I am 120 years old. I am no longer able to go everywhere [that you go] (OR, to be your leader). Furthermore, Yahweh has told me that I will not cross the Jordan [River].
3 Ubangiji Allahnku kansa zai haye a gabanku. Zai hallaka waɗannan al’ummai da suke gabanku, za ku kuwa mallaki ƙasarsu. Yoshuwa shi ma zai haye a gabanku, yadda Ubangiji ya faɗa.
But Yahweh our God will go ahead of you. He will [enable you to] destroy the nations that are living there, in order that you can occupy their land. Joshua will be your leader, which is what Yahweh already told me.
4 Ubangiji zai yi da su, yadda ya yi da Sihon da Og, sarakunan Amoriyawa, waɗanda ya hallaka tare da ƙasarsu.
Yahweh will do to those nations what he did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amor people-group when he destroyed their armies [MTY].
5 Ubangiji zai bashe su gare ku, dole kuma ku yi musu dukan abin da na umarce ku.
Yahweh will enable you to conquer those nations, but you must [kill all of the people of those nations, which is] what I have commanded you to do.
6 Ku ƙarfafa, ku yi ƙarfin hali. Kada ku ji tsoro, ko ku firgita saboda su, gama Ubangiji Allahnku yana tafe tare da ku, ba zai taɓa barinku ko yă yashe ku ba.”
Be brave and confident. Do not be afraid of those people. [Do not forget that] it is Yahweh our God who will go with you. He will always help [LIT] you and never abandon you.”
7 Sai Musa ya kira Yoshuwa, ya ce masa a gaban dukan Isra’ila, “Ka ƙarfafa, ka kuma yi ƙarfin hali, gama dole ka tafi tare da mutanen nan zuwa cikin ƙasar da Ubangiji ya rantse cewa za ba wa kakanninku, dole kuma ka raba ta gare su ta zama gādonsu.
Then Moses/I summoned Joshua, and while all the Israeli people were listening, he/I said to him, “Be brave and confident. You are the one who will lead these people into the land that Yahweh promised to our ancestors that he would give to them, and you will enable them to occupy it.
8 Ubangiji kansa yana tafe a gabanka, zai kuma kasance tare da kai, ba zai taɓa barinka ko yă yashe ka ba. Kada ka ji tsoro; kada kuma ka karai.”
It is Yahweh who will go ahead of you. He will be with you. He will always help [LIT] you. He will never abandon you. So do not be afraid or dismayed.”
9 Sai Musa ya rubuta wannan doka ya kuma ba da ita ga firistoci,’ya’yan Lawi maza, waɗanda sukan ɗauka akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, da kuma dukan dattawan Isra’ila.
Moses/I wrote down all these laws [on two scrolls] and gave [one scroll] to the priests, who carried the chest containing the Ten Commandments, and [gave the other scroll] to the Israeli elders.
10 Sa’an nan Musa ya umarce su ya ce, “A ƙarshen kowace shekara bakwai, a shekara ta yafe basusuwa, a lokacin Bikin Tabanakul,
Moses/I told them, “At the end of every seven years, at the time that all debts are canceled, [read this to the people] during the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters.
11 sa’ad da dukan Isra’ila suka zo, don su bayyana a gaban Ubangiji Allahnku, a wurin da zai zaɓa, za ku karanta wannan doka a gabansu, a kunnuwansu.
Read it to all the Israeli people when they gather at the place that Yahweh chooses for them to worship him.
12 Ku tattara mutane, maza, mata da kuma yara, da baƙin da suke zama a cikin garuruwanku, saboda su saurara, su kuma koyi tsoron Ubangiji Allahnku, su lura, su bi dukan kalmomin wannan doka.
Gather together everyone—men, women, children, even the foreigners [who are living] in your towns—in order that they may hear [these laws] and learn to revere Yahweh our God, and to faithfully obey everything that is written in these laws.
13 ’Ya’yansu, waɗanda ba su san wannan doka ba, dole su ji ta, su kuma koyi tsoron Ubangiji Allahnku muddin ranku a ƙasar da kuke haye Urdun ku ci gādonta.”
[If they do that], your descendants who have never known these laws will hear them and will also learn to revere Yahweh our God, during all the years that they live in the land that you are about to cross the Jordan [River] to occupy.”
14 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Yanzu ranar mutuwarka ta yi kusa. Ka kira Yoshuwa, ku shigo Tentin Sujada, inda zan ba shi ragamar aiki.” Saboda haka Musa da Yoshuwa suka zo, suka kuma shiga Tentin Sujada.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Listen carefully. You will soon die. Summon Joshua, and you go to the Sacred Tent with him, in order that I may appoint him [to be the new leader].” So Joshua and Moses/I went to the Sacred Tent.
15 Ubangiji kuwa ya bayyana a Tentin Sujada a cikin ginshiƙin girgije, sai girgijen ya tsaya a ƙofar Tentin Sujada.
There Yahweh appeared to them/us in a pillar of cloud, and that cloud was close to the door of the tent.
16 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Za ka huta tare da kakanninka, waɗannan mutane kuwa ba da daɗewa ba za su yi karuwanci ga baƙin alloli na ƙasar da za su shiga. Za su yashe ni su kuma karya alkawarin da na yi da su.
Yahweh said to Moses/me, “You will soon die [EUP]. Then these people will become unfaithful [MET] to me. They will abandon me and (break/stop obeying) the agreement that I made with them. They will begin to worship the foreign/pagan gods [that are worshiped by the people] of the land that they will enter.
17 A wannan rana zan yi fushi da su, in kuma yashe su; zan ɓoye fuskata daga gare su, za a kuwa hallaka su. Masifu masu yawa da wahaloli masu yawa za su auka musu, a wannan rana kuwa za su ce, ‘Masifun nan sun same mu domin Allahnmu ba ya tare da mu’
When that happens, I will become very angry with them. I will abandon them [DOU] and I will no longer help them [IDM], and I will destroy them {they will be destroyed}. Many terrible things will happen to them, with the result that they will say, ‘[We are certain that] [RHQ] these things are happening to us because our God is no longer with us.’
18 Tabbatacce kuwa, zan ɓoye musu fuskata saboda muguntar da suka aikata, suka kuma bi gumaka.
And because of all the evil things that they will have done, and [especially because] they will have started to worship other gods, I will refuse to help [IDM] them.
19 “To, sai ka rubuta wannan waƙa domin kanka, ka koya wa Isra’ilawa, ka kuma sa su rera ta, don tă zama shaida a kansu.
“So, [I am going to give you] a song. Write it [on a scroll] and teach it to the Israeli people and cause them to memorize it. It will be like a witness that accuses them.
20 Sa’ad da na kawo su cikin ƙasa mai zub da madara da zuma, ƙasar da na yi alkawari da rantsuwa ga kakanninsu, sa’ad da kuma suka ci suka ƙoshi, suka kuma yi ƙiba, za su juya ga waɗansu alloli su bauta musu, su ƙi ni, su kuma karya alkawarina.
I am about to take them into a very fertile [IDM] land, a land that I solemnly promised their ancestors that I would give to them. There they will have plenty to eat, with the result that their [stomachs] will [always] be full and they will become fat. But then they will turn to other gods and start to worship them, and they will despise me and (break/stop obeying) the agreement that I made with them.
21 Sa’ad da kuma masifu masu yawa da wahaloli masu yawa suka auko musu, wannan waƙa za tă zama shaida a kansu, domin zuriyarsu ba za tă manta da ita ba. Na san abin da za su iya yi, kafin ma in kawo su cikin ƙasar da na yi musu alkawari da rantsuwa.”
And they will experience many terrible disasters. After that happens, their descendants will never forget this song, and it will be like a witness [that says, ‘Now you know why Yahweh punished your ancestors].’ I will soon take them into the land that I vowed that I would give to them; but now, before I do that, I know what they are thinking [that they will do when they are living there].”
22 Sai Musa ya rubuta wannan waƙa a wannan rana, ya kuma koya wa Isra’ilawa.
So on the day that [Yahweh gave Moses/me this song], he/I wrote it down, and he/I taught it to the Israeli people.
23 Ubangiji ya ba wa Yoshuwa ɗan Nun wannan umarni, “Ka ƙarfafa, ka kuma yi ƙarfin hali, gama za ka kawo Isra’ilawa cikin ƙasar da na yi musu alkawari da rantsuwa, ni kaina kuwa zan kasance tare da kai.”
Then Yahweh (appointed/set apart) Joshua and said to him, “Be brave and confident, because you will lead the Israeli people into the land that I vowed that I would give to them. And I will be with you.”
24 Bayan Musa ya gama rubuta kalmomin dokan nan a littafi daga farko zuwa ƙarshe,
Then Moses/I finished writing on a scroll all the laws that Yahweh had told to him/me.
25 sai ya ba wa Lawiyawa, waɗanda suke ɗaukar akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji wannan umarni,
Then Moses/I told the descendants of Levi, who were carrying the Sacred Chest that contained the Ten Commandments,
26 “Ku ɗauki wannan Littafin Doka ku sa shi kusa da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji Allahnku. A can zai kasance a matsayin shaida a kanku.
“Take this scroll on which these laws [are written], and place it beside the Sacred Chest that contains the agreement that Yahweh our God made with you, in order that it may remain there to testify [about what Yahweh will do] to the people [if they disobey him].
27 Gama na sani yadda kuke’yan tawaye da masu taurinkai. In kuna yin tawaye ga Ubangiji tun ina da rai tare da ku, yaya tawayen da za ku yi masa bayan na rasu!
[I say this] because I know that these people are very stubborn [DOU]. They have rebelled against Yahweh all during the time that I have been [with them], and they will rebel much more after I die!
28 Ku tattara dukan dattawan kabilanku, da kuma dukan hafsoshinku a gabana, saboda in faɗa waɗannan kalmomi a kunnuwansu, in kuma kira ga sama da ƙasa su zama shaida a kansu.
So gather all the elders of the tribes and your officials, in order that I can tell them the words [of this song], and request all those who are in heaven and on the earth to be witnesses to testify against these people.
29 Gama na san cewa bayan rasuwata, tabbatacce za ku lalace gaba ɗaya, ku juye daga hanyar da na umarce ku. A kwanaki masu zuwa, masifa za tă auka muku saboda za ku aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, ku tsokane shi har yă yi fushi ta wurin abin da hannuwanku suka yi.”
I say that because I know that after I die, the people will become very wicked. They will turn away from doing everything that I have commanded them to do. And in the future, because of all the evil things that they will do, they will cause Yahweh to become angry with them. And he will cause them to experience disasters.”
30 Sai Musa ya karanta kalmomin waƙar daga farko zuwa ƙarshe a kunnuwan dukan taron jama’ar Isra’ila.
Then, while all the Israeli people listened, Moses/I sang/recited this entire song to them:
