Baʼuu 17
1 Waldaan ijoollee Israaʼel hundi akkuma Waaqayyo ajajetti Gammoojjii Siiniitii kaʼanii iddoo tokko irraa gara iddoo biraatti darbaa dhaqanii Refiidiim qubatan. Garuu sabni sun bishaan dhugaatii hin arganne.
Uzulu wonke wako-Israyeli wasuka enkangala yeSini, wahamba njengokulaya kukaThixo. Bake bahlala okwesikhathi esifitshane eRefidimu kodwa kwakungelamanzi okuthi abantu banathe.
2 Kanaafuu isaan, “Bishaan dhugnu nuu kenni” jedhanii Musee lolan. Museen immoo deebisee, “Isin maaliif na loltu? Waaqayyos maaliif qortu?” jedheen.
Ngakho baxabana loMosi basebesithi, “Sinike amanzi okunatha.” UMosi waphendula wathi “Kungani lixabana lami? Kungani lilinga uThixo?”
3 Jarris bishaan dheebotanii Museetti guunguman; akkanas jedhan; “Ati maaliif akka nu, ijoolleen keenyaa fi horiin keenya dheebuun dhumnuuf biyya Gibxiitii nu baafte?”
Kodwa abantu basebomele amanzi kuleyondawo, ngakho bakhonona kuMosi. Bathi kuye, “Wasikhupha eGibhithe ukwenzela ukuthi thina labantwabethu kanye lezifuyo sibulawe yikoma na?”
4 Kana irratti Museen gara Waaqayyootti iyyee, “Ani saba kana maal godha? Isaan dhagaan na tumuuf xinnumatu hafe” jedhe.
Ngakho uMosi wakhala kuThixo, wathi, “Kambe ngithini ngalababantu? Sebezimisele ukuthi bangikhande ngamatshe.”
5 Waaqayyo immoo akkana jedhee Museef deebii kenne; “Saba kana dura darbii deemi. Maanguddoota Israaʼel keessaa tokko tokko of faana fudhadhuutii ulee ittiin laga Abbayyaa dhoofte sana harkatti qabadhuu deemi.
UThixo waphendula uMosi wathi “Khokhela abantu. Thatha abanye abadala bako-Israyeli ubusuthatha njalo intonga leyana owake watshaya ngayo amanzi emfuleni uNayili lihambe.
6 Kunoo ani kattaa Kooreeb sana bira fuula kee dura achi nan dhaabadha; akka namoonni bishaan dhuganiif ati kattaa sana dhaʼi; bishaanis isa keessaa ni baʼa.” Kanaafuu Museen fuula maanguddoota Israaʼel duratti akkasuma godhe.
Ngizakuma lapho phambi kwenu eduzane ledwala eHorebhi. Utshaye idwala; kuzaphuma amanzi kulo ukuba abantu banathe.” Ngakho uMosi wenza lokho abadala bako-Israyeli bekhangele.
7 Sababii Israaʼeloonni lola kaasanii fi sababii isaan, “Waaqayyo nu wajjin jira moo hin jiru?” jechuudhaan Waaqayyoon qoraniif Museen iddoo sana Maasaahii fi Mariibaa jedhee moggaase.
Wabiza indawo leyo ngegama elithi Masa leMeribha ngenxa yokuthi abantu bako-Israyeli baxabana njalo balinga uThixo besithi “Kambe uThixo ulathi yini kumbe hatshi?”
8 Amaaleqoonni dhufanii Refiidiimitti Israaʼeloota lolan.
Ama-Amaleki eza ukuzohlasela abako-Israyeli eRefidimu.
9 Museenis Iyyaasuudhaan, “Namoota keenya keessaa muraasa filadhuutii dhaqii Amaaleqoota loli. Ani bor ulee Waaqaa harka kootti qabadhee fiixee gaara irra nan dhaabadha” jedhe.
UMosi wathi kuJoshuwa, “Khetha amanye amadoda phakathi kwethu uphume liyekulwa lama-Amaleki. Kusasa ngizakuma phezu koqaqa ngiphethe intonga kaNkulunkulu ezandleni zami.”
10 Yeroo Museen, Aroonii fi Huuri fiixee gaaratti ol baʼanitti, Iyyaasuun akkuma Museen ajajetti Amaaleqoota lola ture.
Ngakho uJoshuwa walwa lama-Amaleki njengokulaya kukaMosi, njalo uMosi, u-Aroni loHuri bakhwela phezu koqaqa.
11 Yeroo Museen harka isaa ol qabatutti Israaʼeloonni ni moʼatu turan; yeroo inni harka isaa gad buufatu immoo Amaaleqoonni ni moʼatu turan.
Kwakusithi nxa uMosi ephakamise izandla zakhe abako-Israyeli babenqoba, kodwa wayesithi angehlisa izandla zakhe ama-Amaleki yiwo ayenqoba.
12 Isaanis yeroo harki Musee dadhabaa deemetti dhagaa tokko fuudhanii isa jala kaaʼan; innis irra taaʼe. Aroonii fi Huuri inni tokko garanaan inni kaan immoo garasiin goranii akka harki isaa hamma aduun dhiitutti gad hin deebineef ol qabaniif.
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.
13 Akkasiin Iyyaasuun loltoota Amaaleqootaa goraadeedhaan moʼate.
Ngakho uJoshuwa wehlula ibutho lama-Amaleki ngenkemba.
14 Ergasii Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe; “Akka wanni kun yaadatamuuf kitaabatti barreessi; Iyyaasuun waan kana dhagaʼuu isaa mirkaneessi; ani guutumaan guutuutti yaadannoo Amaaleqootaa samii jalaa nan balleessaatii.”
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.”
15 Museenis iddoo aarsaa ijaaree, “Waaqayyo Faajjii koo ti” jedhee moggaase.
UMosi wakha i-alithari walibiza ngokuthi uThixo uLuphawu Lwami.
16 Innis, “Harki gara teessoo Waaqayyootti ol kaafameera. Waaqayyos dhaloota tokkoo gara dhaloota kaaniitti Amaaleqoota ni lola” jedhe.
Wathi, “Ngoba izandla zaphakanyiselwa esihlalweni sikaThixo. UThixo uzakulwa impi lezizukulwane zama-Amaleki.”
