Iyyaasuu 5
1 Mootonni Amoorotaa kanneen gama dhiʼa Yordaanos jiraatanii fi mootonni Kanaʼaanotaa kanneen qarqara galaanaa jiraatan hundi akka Waaqayyo hamma nu ceenutti fuula saba Israaʼel duratti Yordaanos gogse yommuu dhagaʼanitti onneen isaanii ni baqxe; deebiʼaniis fuula Israaʼelootaa dura dhaabachuu sodaatan.
And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before the sons of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the sons of Israel.
2 Waaqayyo yeroo sana Iyyaasuudhaan, “Haaduu qara qabu tolchiitii ammas Israaʼeloota dhagna qabi” jedhe.
At that time, said Yahweh unto Joshua, Make thee knives of flint, —and again circumcise the sons of Israel, a second time.
3 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun haaduu qara qabu tolchee Gibeʼaat Aaralootitti Israaʼeloota dhagna qabe.
So Joshua made him knives of flint, —and circumcised the sons of Israel, at the Hill of Foreskins.
4 Sababiin Iyyaasuun waan kana hojjeteef kana: Warri biyya Gibxii baʼanii dhufan hundinuu jechuunis dhiironni lolan hundinuu erga Gibxii baʼanii booddee gammoojjii keessatti karaatti dhuman.
Now, this, is the cause why Joshua did circumcise, —all the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, all the men of war, died in the desert, by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.
5 Namoonni Gibxii baʼan hundi dhagna qabatanii turan; warri yeroo Gibxii baʼanii gammoojjii keessa deemaa turanitti karaatti dhalatan garuu dhagna hin qabamne.
For, though all the people who came forth had been circumcised, yet, all the people who were born in the desert by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, had they not circumcised.
6 Israaʼeloonni sababii Waaqayyoof ajajamuu didaniif hamma namoonni yeroo Gibxii baʼanitti loluu dandaʼan hundi dhumanitti waggaa afurtama gammoojjii keessa jooran. Waaqayyo akka isaan biyya inni nuu kennuuf abbootii isaanii abdachiisee ture, biyya aannanii fi damma baaftu sana hin argine isaanitti kakatee tureetii.
Because, for forty years, did the sons of Israel journey in the desert, until all the nation who were men of war, who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —unto whom Yahweh sware that he would not let them see the land, which Yahweh sware unto their fathers, that he would give unto us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Kanaafuu inni qooda isaanii ilmaan isaanii kaase; isaanis warra Iyyaasuun dhagna qabee dha. Isaan sababii karaatti dhagna hin qabaminiif hamma harʼaatti utuu dhagna hin qabamin jiraatan.
Their sons, therefore, whom he had raised up in their stead, them, did Joshua circumcise, —for, uncircumcised, they were, in that they had not circumcised them by the way.
8 Isaanis erga sabni guutuun dhagna qabamee booddee hamma fayyanitti lafuma jiran sana qubata keessa turan.
And so it came to pass, when they had made an end of circumcising all the nation, they remained in their place, in the camp, until they were healed.
9 Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Ani harʼa arrabsoo Gibxi sana isin irraa gangalcheera” jedhe. Kanaafuu iddoon sun hamma harʼaatti Gilgaal jedhamee waamama.
Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, To-day, have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of that place is called Gilgal ["a rolling away"]unto this day.
10 Galgala bultii kudha afuraffaa jiʼa sanaatti sabni Israaʼel utuma dirree Yerikoo irra Gilgaal keessa qubatee jiruu Faasiikaa ayyaaneffate.
Thus then the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal, —and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the waste plains of Jericho.
11 Isaanis guyyaa Faasiikaatti aanee dhufu, gaafuma sana midhaan biyyattii keessaa waa nyaatan; kunis Maxinoo fi asheetii waadamee dha.
And they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow of the passover, unleavened cakes and parched ears of corn, —on this selfsame day.
12 Mannaanis guyyuma isaan midhaan biyya sanaa nyaatanitti aanu gad buʼuu dhiise; ergasii mannaan tokko iyyuu warra Israaʼeliif gad hin buune; garuu isaan waggaa sana keessa midhaan biyya Kanaʼaan nyaatan.
And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they had eaten of the corn of the land, neither had the sons of Israel manna any more, —so they did eat of the yield of the land of Canaan throughout that year.
13 Iyyaasuun yommuu Yerikootti dhiʼaatetti, ol milʼatee nama goraadee luqqifame harkatti qabatee isa dura dhaabatu tokko arge. Iyyaasuun gara isaa dhaqee, “Ati gara keenya moo gara diinota keenyaa ti?” jedhee isa gaafate.
And it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, —so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, or for our adversaries?
14 Innis deebisee, “Ani gara eenyuu iyyuu miti; garuu ani amma akka ajajaa loltoota Waaqayyootti dhufeera” jedhe. Iyyaasuunis addaan lafatti gombifamee sagadee, “Ergaan Gooftaan koo garbicha isaatiif qabu maali?” jedhee isa gaafate.
And he said—Nay, but, I, as prince of the host of Yahweh, have, now, come. So Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said unto him, What is my lord speaking unto his servant?
15 Ajajaan loltoota Waaqayyoos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Sababii iddoon ati dhaabattu kun qulqulluu taʼeef kophee kee of irraa baasi” jedhe. Iyyaasuunis akkasuma godhe.
Then said the prince of the host of Yahweh unto Joshua—Slip off thy sandals from thy feet, for, as for the place whereon thou art standing, holy, it is. And Joshua did so.
