Iyyaasuu 24
1 Iyyaasuunis ergasii gosoota Israaʼel hunda Sheekemitti walitti qabe. Innis maanguddoota, hooggantoota, abbootii murtii fi qondaaltota Israaʼel walitti waame; isaanis fuula Waaqaa duratti dhiʼaatan.
UJoshuwa wasebuthanisa zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli eShekema, wabiza abadala bakoIsrayeli lenhloko zabo labahluleli babo lenduna zabo, bazimisa phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
2 Iyyaasuun saba hundaan akkana jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: ‘Abbootiin keessan bara durii, Taaraa abbaa Abrahaamii fi Naahoor dabalatanii Laga gama jiraatanii waaqota biraa waaqeffatan.
UJoshuwa wasesithi kubo bonke abantu: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Endulo oyihlo babehlala ngaphetsheya komfula, uTera uyise kaAbrahama loyise kaNahori, babekhonza abanye onkulunkulu.
3 Ani garuu abbaa keessan Abrahaam biyya Laga gamaatii fuudhee biyya Kanaʼaan keessa isa dabarsee sanyii baayʼee kenneef. Ani Yisihaaqin isaafan kenne;
Ngasengimthatha uyihlo uAbrahama ngimsusa ngaphetsheya komfula, ngamhambisa wadabula elizweni lonke leKhanani, ngayandisa inzalo yakhe, ngamnika uIsaka.
4 Yisihaaqiif immoo Yaaqoobii fi Esaawun kenne. Biyyaa gaaraa Seeʼiir Esaawufin kenne; Yaaqoobii fi ilmaan isaa garuu Gibxitti gad buʼan.
LakuIsaka nganika uJakobe loEsawu. LakuEsawu nganika intaba yeSeyiri ukudla ilifa layo, kodwa uJakobe labantwana bakhe behlela eGibhithe.
5 “‘Anis Musee fi Aroon ergee waanan achitti hojjedheen namoota Gibxi dhaʼichaan dhaʼee achii isin baase.
Ngasengithuma uMozisi loAroni, ngatshaya iGibhithe, njengalokho engakwenzayo phakathi kwayo; lemva kwalokho ngalikhupha.
6 Yeroo ani abbootii keessan biyya Gibxi keessaa baasetti, isin gara galaanaa dhuftan; warri Gibxi immoo gaariiwwan lolaatii fi warra fardeen yaabbataniin hamma Galaana Diimaatti isaan hordofan.
Ngasengibakhupha oyihlo eGibhithe, lafika elwandle, amaGibhithe asexotshana lani ngenqola langamabhiza aze afika eLwandle oluBomvu.
7 Isaan gargaarsa barbaaduuf Waaqayyotti iyyatan; innis isaanii fi warra Gibxi gidduu dukkana buuse; warra Gibxitti galaana fidee isaan ukkaamse. Isin waan ani warra Gibxi godhe ijuma keessaniin argitan. Ergasiis isin bara dheeraa gammoojjii keessa jiraattan.
Kwathi bekhala eNkosini, yabeka umnyama phakathi kwenu lamaGibhithe, yaletha ulwandle phezu kwabo, yabasibekela. Lamehlo enu abona engakwenza eGibhithe. Lahlala enkangala insuku ezinengi.
8 “‘Anis biyya Amoorota gama baʼa Yordaanos jiraachaa turan sanaatti isin nan fide. Isaanis isin lolan; ani garuu dabarsee harka keessanitti isaan kenne. Ani fuula keessan duraa isaan nan barbadeesse; isinis biyya isaanii qabattan.
Ngasengililetha elizweni lamaAmori ayehlala ngaphetsheya kweJordani, asesilwa lani, ngawanikela esandleni senu, lalidla ilifa lelizwe lawo, ngawachitha phambi kwenu.
9 Baalaaq ilmi Ziphoori mootichi Moʼaab sun yeroo Israaʼelitti duuluuf qophaaʼetti akka inni isin abaaruuf Balaʼaam ilma Beʼooritti dhaamsa ergate.
UBalaki indodana kaZipori inkosi yakoMowabi wasesukuma walwa loIsrayeli, wathuma wabiza uBalami indodana kaBeyori ukuthi aliqalekise.
10 Ani garuu Balaʼaamin hin dhaggeeffanne; kanaafuu inni irra deddeebiʼee isin eebbise; anis harka isaa keessaa isin nan baase.
Kodwa kangithandanga ukulalela uBalami; ngakho walibusisa lokulibusisa, ngasengilikhulula esandleni sakhe.
11 “‘Isinis ergasii laga Yordaanos ceetanii Yerikoo dhuftan. Jiraattonni Yerikoos akkuma Amooronni, Feerzonni, Kanaʼaanonni, Heetonni, Girgaashonni, Hiiwonnii fi Yebuusonni godhan sana isin lolan; ani garuu dabarseen harka keessanitti isaan kenne.
Lachapha iJordani, lafika eJeriko, izakhamizi zeJeriko zalwa zimelene lani, amaAmori, lamaPerizi, lamaKhanani, lamaHethi, lamaGirigashi, amaHivi, lamaJebusi; ngawanikela esandleni senu.
12 Ani sonsa isaanii fi mootota Amoorotaa lamaan fuula keessan duraa ariʼee baasu isin dura nan erge. Isin goraadee keessanii fi iddaa keessaniin isaan hin ariine.
Ngathuma olonyovu phambi kwenu abawaxotsha phambi kwenu, amakhosi amabili amaAmori; hatshi ngenkemba yakho njalo hatshi ngedandili lakho.
13 Ani akkasiin biyya isin itti hin dadhabinii fi magaalaa isin hin ijaarin isiniifan kenne; isinis isaan keessa jiraattanii iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitii fi muka ejersaa kan ofii keessanii hin dhaabin irraa nyaattan.’
Ngasengilinika ilizwe elingalisebenzelanga, lemizi elingayakhanga, lihlala kiyo. Lidla okwezivini lezivande zemihlwathi elingakuhlanyelanga.
14 “Egaa Waaqayyoon sodaadhaatii amanamummaa guutuudhaan isa tajaajilaa. Waaqota abbootiin keessan Laga gamaa fi biyya Gibxitti waaqeffatan sana gataatii Waaqayyoon tajaajilaa.
Khathesi-ke yesabeni iNkosi, liyikhonze ngobuqotho langeqiniso, lisuse onkulunkulu oyihlo ababakhonza ngaphetsheya komfula leGibhithe, njalo likhonze iNkosi.
15 Isin garuu yoo Waaqayyoon tajaajiluu hin barbaanne, waaqota abbootiin keessan Laga gamatti tajaajilaa turan sana yookaan waaqota Amoorotaa biyya isaanii keessa jiraattan kanneenii keessaa harʼa filadhaa. Anii fi manni koo garuu Waaqayyoon waaqeffanna.”
Uba-ke kukubi emehlweni enu ukuyikhonza iNkosi, zikhetheleni lamuhla lowo elizamkhonza; kumbe onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo ababengaphetsheya komfula, loba onkulunkulu bamaAmori elihlala elizweni lawo. Kodwa mina lendlu yami sizayikhonza iNkosi.
16 Sabnis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Waaqota biraa tajaajiluudhaaf jennee Waaqayyoon dhiisuun nurraa haa fagaatu!
Basebephendula abantu besithi: Kakube khatshana lathi ukuthi sitshiye iNkosi, sikhonze abanye onkulunkulu.
17 Kan biyya Gibxi, biyya garbummaa sana keessaa nuu fi abbootii keenya baasee waan mallattoowwan gurguddaa sana ija keenya duratti hojjete Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa dha. Inni karaa keenya hunda irrattii fi saboota nu gidduu isaanii tarre sana hunda gidduutti nu eege.
Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu iyiyo eyasenyusayo labobaba sivela elizweni leGibhithe, endlini yobugqili, eyenza phambi kwamehlo ethu lezizibonakaliso ezinkulu, yasilondoloza endleleni yonke esahamba kiyo, laphakathi kwabo bonke abantu esedlule phakathi kwabo.
18 Waaqayyo saboota hunda, Amoorota biyya sana keessa jiraachaa turanis fuula keenya duraa ariʼee baase. Sababii inni Waaqa keenya taʼeef nu Waaqayyoon tajaajilla.”
INkosi yasixotsha phambi kwethu zonke izizwe, lamaAmori ayehlala elizweni. Thina lathi sizayikhonza iNkosi, ngoba inguNkulunkulu wethu.
19 Iyyaasuunis sabaan akkana jedhe; “Isin Waaqayyoon tajaajiluu hin dandeessan. Inni Waaqa qulqulluu dha. Inni Waaqa hinaafuu dha. Inni fincila keessanii fi cubbuu keessan isinii hin dhiisu.
UJoshuwa wasesithi ebantwini: Kalilakuyikhonza iNkosi, ngoba inguNkulunkulu ongcwele, inguNkulunkulu olobukhwele. Kayiyikuthethelela iziphambeko zenu lezono zenu.
20 Yoo isin Waaqayyoon dhiiftanii waaqota ormaa tajaajiltan, inni erguma waan gaarii isinii godhee booddee garagalee balaa isinitti buusee isin balleessa.”
Uba liyitshiya iNkosi likhonze onkulunkulu abezizwe, izaphenduka yenze okubi kini, iliqede, emva kokuthi ilenzele okuhle.
21 Namoonni garuu Iyyaasuudhaan, “Lakki! Nu Waaqayyoon tajaajilla” jedhan.
Abantu basebesithi kuJoshuwa: Hatshi, kodwa sizayikhonza iNkosi.
22 Iyyaasuunis deebisee, “Isin akka Waaqayyoon tajaajiluu filattan ofii keessanitti dhugaa baatota taataniirtu” jedheen. Isaanis deebisanii, “Eeyyee, nu dhugaa baatota” jedhan.
UJoshuwa wasesithi ebantwini: Lingabafakazi ngani ukuthi lina lizikhethele iNkosi ukuyikhonza. Basebesithi: Singabafakazi.
23 Kana irratti Iyyaasuun, “Yoos amma waaqota ormaa kanneen isin gidduu jiran sana baasaa gataatii garaa keessan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼelitti kennaa” jedheen.
Khathesi-ke, susani onkulunkulu abezizwe abaphakathi kwenu, lithobele inhliziyo yenu eNkosini, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
24 Sabnis Iyyaasuudhaan, “Nu Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya tajaajilla; ni ajajamnaafis” jedhe.
Abantu basebesithi kuJoshuwa: INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu sizayikhonza, lelizwi layo sililalele.
25 Iyyaasuun guyyaa sana sabaaf kakuu galee Sheekemitti ajajaa fi seera baase.
Ngakho uJoshuwa wasebenzela abantu isivumelwano ngalolosuku, wababekela isimiso lesimiselo eShekema.
26 Innis waan kana Kitaaba Seera Waaqaa keessatti barreesse. Dhagaa guddaa tokkos fuudhee iddoo qulqulluu Waaqayyoo biratti qilxuu tokko jala dhaabe.
UJoshuwa wasebhala lawomazwi egwalweni lomlayo kaNkulunkulu; wathatha ilitshe elikhulu, walimisa lapho ngaphansi kwesihlahla se-okhi elingasendlini engcwele yeNkosi.
27 Inni nama hundaan akkana jedhe; “Kunoo! Dhagaan kun dhugaa nutti baʼaa. Inni dubbii Waaqayyo nutti dubbate hunda dhagaʼeera. Yoo isin Waaqa keessaniif hin amanamin dhagaan kun dhugaa isinitti baʼa.”
UJoshuwa wasesithi ebantwini bonke: Khangelani, lelilitshe lizakuba yibufakazi ngathi, ngoba liwezwile wonke amazwi eNkosi eyawakhuluma kithi; ngakho lizakuba yibufakazi ngani, hlezi lenze inkohliso kuNkulunkulu wenu.
28 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun tokkoo tokkoo namaa gara dhaala mataa mataa isaatti erge.
UJoshuwa wasebayekela abantu ukuthi bahambe, ngulowo lalowo waya elifeni lakhe.
29 Sana booddee Iyyaasuun ilmi Nuuni, garbichi Waaqayyoo sun, waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi kudhanitti duʼe.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, inceku yeNkosi, wafa eleminyaka elikhulu letshumi.
30 Isaanis lafa dhaala isaa, Timnaat Seeraa kan biyya gaaraa Efreem keessatti karaa kaaba Tulluu Gaʼaashitti argamtu sanatti isa awwaalan.
Basebemngcwabela emngceleni welifa lakhe eThiminathi-Sera esentabeni yakoEfrayimi enyakatho kwentaba iGahashi.
31 Sabni Israaʼel bara jireenya Iyyaasuu guutuu fi bara maanguddoota erga inni duʼee as hafanii jiraatanii waan Waaqayyo Israaʼeliif godhe hunda arganii keessa Waaqayyoon tajaajileera.
Njalo uIsrayeli wayikhonza iNkosi zonke izinsuku zikaJoshuwa lazo zonke izinsuku zabadala abelula insuku emva kukaJoshuwa, njalo ababewazi wonke umsebenzi weNkosi eyawenzela uIsrayeli.
32 Lafeen Yoosef kan Israaʼeloonni biyya Gibxii baasanii fidanis Sheekemitti lafa Yaaqoob meetii dhibba tokkoon ilmaan Hamoor, abbaa Sheekem irraa bitee sanatti awwaalame. Lafti kunis dhaala sanyii Yoosef taʼe.
Lamathambo kaJosefa abantwana bakoIsrayeli ababenyuke lawo bevela eGibhithe bawangcwaba eShekema, esiqintini sensimu uJakobe asithenga kubantwana bakaHamori uyise kaShekema ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezilikhulu; saba-ke yilifa labantwana bakoJosefa.
33 Eleʼaazaar ilmi Aroonis duʼee Gibeʼaa lafa biyya gaaraa Efreem kan ilma isaa Fiinehaasiif ixaadhaan kenname keessatti awwaalame.
UEleyazare indodana kaAroni wasesifa, bamngcwaba eqaqeni lukaPhinehasi indodana yakhe, ayeluphiwe entabeni yakoEfrayimi.
