1 Uzulu wonke wako-Israyeli wasuka enkangala yeSini, wahamba njengokulaya kukaThixo. Bake bahlala okwesikhathi esifitshane eRefidimu kodwa kwakungelamanzi okuthi abantu banathe.
Oo markaasaa shirkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay ka sodcaaleen cidlada Siin la yidhaahdo, oo waxay u socdeen sidii Rabbigu ku amray, kolkaasay waxay degeen meel la yidhaahdo Refiidiim; oo dadkuna ma ay haysan biyo ay cabbaan.
2 Ngakho baxabana loMosi basebesithi, “Sinike amanzi okunatha.” UMosi waphendula wathi “Kungani lixabana lami? Kungani lilinga uThixo?”
Sidaas daraaddeed dadkii waxay la dirireen Muuse, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War biyo aannu cabno na sii. Kolkaasaa Muuse wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Bal maxaad aniga iila diriraysaan? Oo maxaad Rabbiga u jirrabaysaan?
3 Kodwa abantu basebomele amanzi kuleyondawo, ngakho bakhonona kuMosi. Bathi kuye, “Wasikhupha eGibhithe ukwenzela ukuthi thina labantwabethu kanye lezifuyo sibulawe yikoma na?”
Markaasay dadkii meeshaas biyo ugu harraadeen; kolkaasaa dadkii intay Muuse u gunuuseen ayay waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaad Masar nooga soo kaxaysay? Ma inaad annaga iyo carruurtayada, iyo xoolahayaga harraad noogu disha baa?
4 Ngakho uMosi wakhala kuThixo, wathi, “Kambe ngithini ngalababantu? Sebezimisele ukuthi bangikhande ngamatshe.”
Kolkaasaa Muuse Rabbiga u qayshaday oo ku yidhi, Bal maxaan dadkan ku sameeyaa? Waayo, waxay ku dhow yihiin inay i dhagxiyaan.
5 UThixo waphendula uMosi wathi “Khokhela abantu. Thatha abanye abadala bako-Israyeli ubusuthatha njalo intonga leyana owake watshaya ngayo amanzi emfuleni uNayili lihambe.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Bal dadka ka hor mar, oo waxaad kaxaysataa waayeellada reer binu Israa'iil, ushaadii aad webiga ku dhufatayna gacanta ku qabso oo tag.
6 Ngizakuma lapho phambi kwenu eduzane ledwala eHorebhi. Utshaye idwala; kuzaphuma amanzi kulo ukuba abantu banathe.” Ngakho uMosi wenza lokho abadala bako-Israyeli bekhangele.
Oo bal ogow, halkaas ayaan hortaada isku dul taagi doonaa dhagaxa weyn oo Xoreeb yaal, kolkaas waa inaad dhagaxa ushaada ku dhufataa, oo waxaa halkaas ka iman doona biyo ay dadku cabbaan. Kolkaasaa Muuse sidaas ku sameeyey waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil hortooda.
7 Wabiza indawo leyo ngegama elithi Masa leMeribha ngenxa yokuthi abantu bako-Israyeli baxabana njalo balinga uThixo besithi “Kambe uThixo ulathi yini kumbe hatshi?”
Markaasuu meeshaas magaceedii wuxuu u bixiyey Masaah iyo Meriibaah, dirirtii ay reer binu Israa'iil dirireen aawadeed, iyo jirrabaaddii ay Rabbiga jirrabeen aawadeed, oo ay yidhaahdeen, War, Rabbigu ma na dhex joogaa mise nama dhex joogo?
8 Ama-Amaleki eza ukuzohlasela abako-Israyeli eRefidimu.
Markaasaa waxaa yimid reer Camaaleq, oo wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil kula diriray Refiidiim.
9 UMosi wathi kuJoshuwa, “Khetha amanye amadoda phakathi kwethu uphume liyekulwa lama-Amaleki. Kusasa ngizakuma phezu koqaqa ngiphethe intonga kaNkulunkulu ezandleni zami.”
Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Yashuuca ku yidhi, Rag inoo dooro, oo la bax, oo reer Camaaleq la dirir. Berrito waxaan istaagi doonaa buurta dusheeda, anigoo gacanta ku haysta ushii Ilaah.
10 Ngakho uJoshuwa walwa lama-Amaleki njengokulaya kukaMosi, njalo uMosi, u-Aroni loHuri bakhwela phezu koqaqa.
Kolkaasaa Yashuuca yeelay sidii Muuse ku yidhi, oo wuxuu la diriray reer Camaaleq. Markaasaa Muuse iyo Haaruun iyo Xuur waxay koreen ilaa buurta dusheedii.
11 Kwakusithi nxa uMosi ephakamise izandla zakhe abako-Israyeli babenqoba, kodwa wayesithi angehlisa izandla zakhe ama-Amaleki yiwo ayenqoba.
Oo markii Muuse gacanta kor u taagayba, waxaa adkaaday reer binu Israa'iil; markuu gacanta dejiyeyna, waxaa adkaaday reer Camaaleq.
12 Kwathi izandla zikaMosi sezidiniwe bathatha ilitshe balifaka ngaphansi kwakhe wasehlala phezu kwalo. U-Aroni loHuri baphakamisa izandla zakhe, omunye ekuleli icele omunye kwelinye ukuze izandla zakhe zale ziphakeme laze latshona ilanga.
Laakiinse Muuse gacmihiisu way cuslaayeen; kolkaasay waxay soo qaadeen dhagax, oo Muuse u saldhigeen, isna kolkaasuu ku fadhiistay; Haaruun iyo Xuurna gacmihiisii bay sare u hayeen, intuu midba dhinac ka maray, oo gacmihiisiina way xoogeeyeen ilaa ay qorraxdii dhacday.
13 Ngakho uJoshuwa wehlula ibutho lama-Amaleki ngenkemba.
Oo Yashuucana seef afkeed buu ku jebiyey reer Camaaleq iyo dadkiisiiba.
14 UThixo wasesithi kuMosi, “Bhala lokhu ogwalweni njengento okumele ikhunjulwe njalo ubone ukuthi uJoshuwa uyakuzwa lokhu ngenxa yokuthi ngizatshabalalisa umkhumbulo wonke omayelana lama-Amaleki ngaphansi kwezulu.”
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Waxan buug ku qor si loo xusuusto, oo Yashuuca dhegihiisa maqashii, waayo, xusuusta reer Camaaleq lagu xusuusan jiray ayaan inta samada ka hoosaysa oo dhan ka baabbi'inayaa.
15 UMosi wakha i-alithari walibiza ngokuthi uThixo uLuphawu Lwami.
Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu dhisay meel allabari, oo magaceedii wuxuu u bixiyey Yehowah Nisii,
16 Wathi, “Ngoba izandla zaphakanyiselwa esihlalweni sikaThixo. UThixo uzakulwa impi lezizukulwane zama-Amaleki.”
oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu waa dhaartay, oo Rabbigu wuu la dagaallami doonaa reer Camaaleq ka ab ka ab.
