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.
When all the kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard how Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, their heart melted, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.
2 Waaqayyo yeroo sana Iyyaasuudhaan, “Haaduu qara qabu tolchiitii ammas Israaʼeloota dhagna qabi” jedhe.
At that time, Yahweh said to Joshua, “Make flint knives, and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.”
3 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun haaduu qara qabu tolchee Gibeʼaat Aaralootitti Israaʼeloota dhagna qabe.
Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the 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.
This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way, after they came 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 all the people who came out were circumcised; but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been 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.
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the nation, even the men of war who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they didn’t listen to Yahweh’s voice. Yahweh swore to them that he wouldn’t let them see the land which Yahweh swore to their fathers that he would give 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 children, whom he raised up in their place, were circumcised by Joshua, for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.
8 Isaanis erga sabni guutuun dhagna qabamee booddee hamma fayyanitti lafuma jiran sana qubata keessa turan.
When they were done circumcising the whole nation, they stayed in their places 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.
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal to this day.
10 Galgala bultii kudha afuraffaa jiʼa sanaatti sabni Israaʼel utuma dirree Yerikoo irra Gilgaal keessa qubatee jiruu Faasiikaa ayyaaneffate.
The children of Israel encamped in Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.
11 Isaanis guyyaa Faasiikaatti aanee dhufu, gaafuma sana midhaan biyyattii keessaa waa nyaatan; kunis Maxinoo fi asheetii waadamee dha.
They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same 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.
The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel didn’t have manna any more, but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan 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.
When Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man stood in front of him with his sword drawn in his hand. Joshua went to him and said to him, “Are you for us, or for our enemies?”
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.
He said, “No; but I have come now as commander of Yahweh’s army.” Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and asked him, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
15 Ajajaan loltoota Waaqayyoos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Sababii iddoon ati dhaabattu kun qulqulluu taʼeef kophee kee of irraa baasi” jedhe. Iyyaasuunis akkasuma godhe.
The prince of Yahweh’s army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place on which you stand is holy.” Joshua did so.
