Iyyaasuu 2
1 Ergasii Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuni, “Dhaqaatii biyya sana, keessumattuu Yerikoo basaasaa” jedhee dhoksaan basaastota lama biyya Shixiimiitii erge. Isaanis deemanii mana sagaagaltittii Rahaab jedhamtu tokkoo seenanii achuma turan.
UJoshuwa indodana kaNuni wasethumela inhloli ezimbili ngasese zisuka eShithima. Wathi kuzo, “Hambani liyehlola ilizwe lakhona, ikakhulu iJerikho.” Ngakho zahamba zayangena endlini yesifebe esithiwa nguRahabi, zahlala khona.
2 Mooticha Yerikoottis, “Kunoo! Israaʼeloota keessaa namoonni tokko tokko biyyattii basaasuuf galgala kana as dhufaniiru” jedhamee himame.
Inkosi yaseJerikho yatshelwa ukuthi “Khangela! Abanye abantu bako-Israyeli bafike lapha ebusuku ukuzohlola ilizwe lethu.”
3 Kanaafuu mootichi Yerikoo, “Sababii isaan guutummaa biyyattii basaasuuf dhufaniif namoota gara kee dhufanii mana kee seenan sana gad baasi” jedhee dhaamsa kana Rahaabitti erge.
Ngakho inkosi yaseJerikho yathumela ilizwi kuRahabi yathi, “Khupha amadoda angene endlini yakho, ngoba alande ukuzohlola ilizwe lonke.”
4 Dubartittiin garuu namoota lamaan fuutee dhoksite. Isheenis akkana jette; “Dhuguma namoonni gara koo dhufaniiru; ani garuu akka isaan eessaa dhufan hin beekne.
Kodwa owesifazane wayethethe amadoda womabili wawafihla. Wasesithi, “Liqiniso amadoda afikile kimi, kodwa bengingazi ukuthi abevela ngaphi.
5 Isaanis galgala yommuu yeroon karri magaalattii cufamu gaʼetti baʼanii deeman. Karaa isaan deemanis ani hin beeku. Isaan qaqqabdu taʼaatii dafaa isaan duukaa buʼaa.”
Kusihlwa, sesifikile isikhathi sokuvala isango ledolobho, amadoda asuke azihambela. Kangikwazi ukuthi aqonde ngaphi. Axhumeni masinyane. Engxenye lingawafica.”
6 Isheen garuu gara bantii manaatti ol isaan baaftee cidii talbaa kan bantii manaa irratti tuultee turte jala isaan dhoksite.
(Kodwa wayebakhweze phezu kophahla wabafihla ngaphansi kwezinqwaba zesikusha ayesichaye ophahleni).
7 Kanaafuu namoonni basaastota sana duukaa buʼuudhaaf karaa gara malkaa Yordaanos geessu irra buʼanii qajeelan; karri sunis akkuma duukaa buutonni sun baʼaniin cufame.
Ngakho amadoda aphuma ijumo elandela inhloli emgwaqweni oya ezibukweni leJodani, njalo athi esanda kuphuma isango lavalwa.
8 Isheenis utuu basaastonni sun buluuf hin ciciisin gara bantii manaatti ol baatee
Inhloli zathi zingakalali ngalobobusuku, wakhwela phezu kophahla
9 akkana isaaniin jette; “Ani akka Waaqayyo biyya kana isinii kennee fi akka isin sodaachuun nurra buʼes nan beeka; namni biyya kana keessa jiraatu hundinuus sababii keessaniif fuula keessan duratti sodaadhaan hollachaa jira.
wasesithi kuzo, “Ngiyazi ukuthi uThixo uselinike lelilizwe lokuthi sonke sesehlelwe yikwesaba okukhulu ngenxa yenu, okwenza ukuthi bonke abahlala kulelilizwe babelomhedehede wokulesaba.
10 Yommuu isin Gibxii baatanitti akka itti Waaqayyo Galaana Diimaa fuula keessan duratti gogse, waan isinis Sihoonii fi Oogi mootota Amoorotaa kanneen gama baʼa Yordaanositti guutumaan guutuutti balleessitan sana lamaan gootan dhageenyeerra.
Sesizwile ukuthi uThixo walenzela amanzi oLwandle Olubomvu atsha ngesikhathi liphuma eGibhithe, lalokho elakwenza kuSihoni lo-Ogi amakhosi amabili ama-Amori empumalanga yeJodani elawatshaya lawaqothula.
11 Nu yommuu waaʼee waan kanaa dhageenyetti sababii keessaniif onneen keenya baqxee abdii kutanne. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan ol samii gubbaatti, gad lafa irrattis Waaqaatii.
Sathi sikuzwa lokho inhliziyo zethu zahle zaphela amandla njalo wonke umuntu kazabe esaba lesibindi ngenxa yenu ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu unguNkulunkulu ophezulu ezulwini laphansi emhlabeni.
12 “Egaa amma sababii ani garaa isinii laafeef isinis akkasuma akka maatii kootiif garaa laaftan maqaa Waaqayyootiin naa kakadhaa. Mallattoo dhugaas naa kennaa;
Ngakho-ke ngicela ukuthi lifunge kimi ngoThixo ukuthi lizakuba lomusa emulini yami ngoba lami ngitshengise umusa kini.
13 kunis akka isin lubbuu abbaa kootii, haadha kootii, obbolootaa fi obboleettota kootii, waan kan isaanii taʼe hundaa fi lubbuu keenya duʼa oolchitaniif.”
Nginikani isiqiniseko sokuthi lizaphephisa impilo kababa lomama, abanewethu labodadewethu labo bonke abangababo, njalo lizasisindisa ekufeni.”
14 Namoonnis, “Lubbuun keenya sababii lubbuu keessaniitiif haa badduu! Yoo isin waan nu hojjennu kana namatti himuu baattan nu yommuu Waaqayyo biyya kana nuu kennutti gara laafinaa fi amanamummaadhaan si simanna” jedhanii ishee abdachiisan.
Amadoda amthembisa athi, “Ukuphila kwethu yikuphila kwenu! Ungayekela ukuveza lokho esikwenzayo sizakwenzela umusa lokwethembeka lapho uThixo esesipha ilizwe.”
15 Kanaafuu isheen sababii manni isheen keessa jiraattu sun dallaa magaalattiitiin wal qabatuuf foddaa keessaan funyoodhaan gad isaan buufte.
Ngakho-ke wabehlisela phansi ngentambo baphuma ngefasitela kalokho indlu ayehlala kuyo yayingumduli munye lalowo owawugombolozele idolobho.
16 Isheenis akkana isaaniin jette; “Akka warri isin duukaa buʼan sun isin hin argineef gara gaarraniitti baqadhaa. Hamma isaan deebiʼanitti guyyoota sadii achitti dhokadhaa; ergasii immoo karaa keessan deemaa.”
Wayethe kubo, “Qondani emaqaqeni ukwenzela ukuthi abaxhuma umzila wenu bangaze balifica. Licatshe khonale okwensuku ezintathu baze baphenduke beseliqhubeka ngendlela yenu.”
17 Namoonni sunis akkana jedhaniin; “Kakuun ati nu kakachiifte kun kan nu qabachuu dandaʼu,
Amadoda athi kuye, “Isifungo osifungise sona sizakuba yize
18 yoo ati yommuu nu biyyattii seennutti funyoo bildiimaa kana foddaa ittiin gad nu buufte kanatti hiitee abbaa keetii fi haadha kee, obboloota keetii fi maatii kee hunda mana keetti galchite qofa.
ngaphandle kokuthi nxa sesingena kulelilizwe sifice ubophele leliqhele elibomvu ewindini osikhuphe ngalo, njalo usulethe uyihlo lonyoko, abafowenu lemuli yakho yonke endlini yakho.
19 Namni tokko iyyuu yoo mana kee keessaa gara daandii alaatti gad baʼe, dhiigni isaa matuma isaatti deebiʼa; nu itti hin gaafatamnu. Nama si wajjin mana kee keessa jiru immoo yoo harki tokko iyyuu isa tuqe, dhiigni isaa mataa keenyatti deebiʼa.
Nxa umuntu angaphuma phandle kwendlu yakho abesesiya esitaladeni, igazi lakhe lizakuba sekhanda lakhe: kawusoze ube ngumlandu wethu. Kuye wonke oyabe ephakathi kwendlu kanye lawe, igazi lakhe lizakuba sekhanda lethu nxa angavele athintwe.
20 Garuu yoo ati waan nu hojjennu kana namatti himte, nu kakuu ati nu kakachiifte sana jalaa bilisa baana.”
Kodwa ungavele uveze lokhu esikwenzayo, sizabe sesikhululiwe esifungweni osifungise sona.”
21 Isheenis, “Fudhadheera; akkuma isin jettan haa taʼu” jettee deebifte. Kanaafuu isheen isaan ergite; isaanis kaʼanii deeman. Isheen funyoo bildiimaa sana foddaa sanatti hiite.
Waphendula wathi, “Ngiyavuma, kakube njengokutsho kwenu.” Ngakho wavalelisana labo basebezihambela. Wasebophela iqhele elibomvu ewindini.
22 Isaanis yommuu baʼanitti gara gaarranii deemanii hamma duukaa buutonni sun karaa irra barbaadanii isaan dhabanii deebiʼanitti guyyaa sadii achi turan.
Bathi besuka lapho baqonda emaqaqeni lapho abahlala khona okwensuku ezintathu ababebaxhuma baze badela ukubadinga emgwaqweni wonke, basebebuyela bengababonanga.
23 Basaastonni lamaan sunis deebiʼanii gaarran keessaa baʼanii malkaadhaan laga ceʼuudhaan gara Iyyaasuu ilma Nuuni dhufan; waan isaan irra gaʼe hundas isatti himan.
Ngakho-ke amadoda womabili aphindela emuva. Ehla emaqaqeni, achapha umfula, afika kuJoshuwa indodana kaNuni amtshela konke okwakwenzakele kuwo.
24 Isaanis Iyyaasuudhaan, “Waaqayyo dhugumaan biyyattii guutuu harka keenyatti kenneera; namoonni hundinuus sababii keenyaaf sodaadhaan hollachaa jiru” jedhan.
Athi kuJoshuwa, “UThixo ngeqiniso uphe ilizwe lonke ezandleni zethu; bonke abantu bayathuthumela ngokwesaba, ngenxa yethu.”
