Baxniintii 18
1 Haddaba wadaadkii Midyaan oo Yetroo ahaa, Muusena soddog u ahaa, ayaa wuxuu maqlay kulli wixii Rabbigu u sameeyey Muuse iyo dadkiisa reer binu Israa'iil, iyo sidii Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil uga soo bixiyey dalkii Masar.
And Jethro the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done to Moses, and to Israel his people; that Jehovah had brought Israel out of Egypt.
2 Markaasaa Yetroo oo Muuse soddog u ahaa ayaa wuxuu soo kexeeyey naagtii Muuse oo ahayd Siforaah, markuu iska diray dabadeed,
And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her back,
3 iyadii iyo labadeedii wiilba, oo midkood magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Gershoom, waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Qariib baan ku ahaa dal qalaad,
and her two sons, of whom the name of the one was Gershom — for he said, I have been a sojourner in a foreign land,
4 midka kalena magiciisuna wuxuu ahaa Eliiceser; waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Ilaahii aabbahay baa i caawiyey, oo wuxuu iga samatabbixiyey seeftii Fircoon.
— and the name of the other, Eliezer — For the God of my father has been my help, and has delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.
5 Markaasaa Yetroo oo Muuse soddog u ahaa ayaa Muuse ugu yimid cidladii ay degeen oo buurtii Ilaah agteeda ahayd isagoo wada wiilashiisii iyo naagtiisii.
And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came to Moses with his sons and his wife into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mountain of God.
6 Markaasuu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Anigoo ah Yetroo soddoggaa waan kuu imid aniga iyo naagtaada iyadoo wadata labadeedii wiilba.
And he sent word to Moses: I, thy father-in-law Jethro, am come to thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.
7 Markaasaa Muuse dibadda u baxay inuu ka hor tago soddoggiis, kolkaasuu u sujuuday oo dhunkaday, markaasaa intay iswaraysteen ayay teendhadii soo galeen.
And Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, and did obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other [after] their welfare, and went into the tent.
8 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu soddoggiis u sheegay kulli wixii Rabbigu ku sameeyey Fircoon iyo Masriyiintii oo uu ugu sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil aawadood, iyo wixii dhib iyaga ku dhacay oo dhan intay soo socdeen, iyo sidii Rabbigu uga samatabbixiyey.
And Moses told his father-in-law all that Jehovah had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake; all the trouble that had befallen them on the way, and [how] Jehovah had delivered them.
9 Markaasaa Yetroo ku farxay kulli wanaaggii Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil u sameeyey oo dhan, iyo bixinta uu ka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii Masriyiinta.
And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness that Jehovah had done to Israel; that he had delivered them out of the hand of the Egyptians.
10 Markaasaa Yetroo wuxuu yidhi, Ammaan waxaa leh Rabbigii idinka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii Masriyiinta, iyo gacantii Fircoon; oo kaasu waa kii dadka ka soo samatabbixiyey gacantii Masriyiinta hoosteeda.
And Jethro said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh; who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
11 Oo haatan anigu waan ogahay in Rabbigu ka wada weyn yahay ilaahyada oo dhan; waayo, waxyaalihii ay kula macaamiloodeen iyagoo kibirsan aawadeed, isagaa ka sarreeyey.
Now I know that Jehovah is greater than all gods; for in the thing in which they acted haughtily [he was] above them.
12 Markaasaa Yetroo oo Muuse soddog u ahaa ayaa wuxuu qaaday qurbaan la gubo iyo allabaryo. Markaasaa waxaa yimid Haaruun iyo waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan inay Ilaah hortiisa kibis kula cunaan Muuse soddoggiis.
And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took a burnt-offering and sacrifices for God; and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father-in-law in the presence of God.
13 Markaasaa waxaa maalintii dambe dhacday in Muuse u fadhiistay inuu dadkii u kala gar naqo; dadkiina waxay Muuse ag taagnaayeen subaxdii ilaa makhribkii.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people; and the people stood by Moses from the morning to the evening.
14 Oo Muuse soddoggiis markuu arkay wixii uu dadkii ku sameeyey oo dhan ayuu yidhi, Waa maxay waxan aad dadka ku samaynaysaa? Oo maxaad keligaa u fadhidaa, dadka oo dhammuna kuu ag taagan yahay subaxda ilaa makhribka?
And Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did with the people, and said, What is this thing which thou art doing with the people? why dost thou sit alone, and all the people are standing by thee from morning to evening?
15 Markaasaa Muuse soddoggiis ku yidhi, Maxaa yeelay, dadku waxay iigu yimaadaan inay Ilaah wax iga weyddiiyaan.
And Moses said to his father-in-law, Because the people come to me to enquire of God.
16 Oo markay wax isu haystaanna anigay ii yimaadaan, oo markaasaan u kala gar naqaa nin iyo deriskiisa, oo waxaan iyaga ogeysiiyaa amarrada Ilaah iyo qaynuunnadiisa.
When they have a matter, they come to me, and I judge between one and another; and I make known [to them] the statutes of God, and his laws.
17 Markaasaa Muuse soddoggiis wuxuu isaga ku yidhi, War waxaad samaysaa ma wanaagsana.
And Moses' father-in-law said to him, The thing that thou art doing is not good.
18 Waayo, hubaal waad ku daali doontaan, adiga iyo dadka kula joogaaba, maxaa yeelay, waxanu waa kugu culus yihiin adiga; oo ma aad awooddid inaad keli ahaantaa samayso.
Thou wilt be quite exhausted, both thou and this people that is with thee; for the thing is too heavy for thee: thou canst not perform it alone.
19 Haddaba bal i dhegayso oo waan kula talinayaaye, oo Ilaahna ha kula jiro. Adigu dadka daraaddiis Ilaah u dhowow, oo arrimahoodana Ilaah u keen.
Hearken now to my voice: I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee. Be thou for the people with God, and bring the matters before God;
20 Oo waa inaad iyaga bartaa amarrada iyo qaynuunnada, oo waa inaad iyaga tustaa jidkii ay mari lahaayeen, iyo shuqulkii ay qaban lahaayeen.
and teach them the statutes and the laws, and make known to them the way in which they must walk, and the work that they must do.
21 Oo weliba waa inaad dadka oo dhan kala soo baxdaa rag karti leh, oo Ilaah ka cabsada, oo daacad ah, oo neceb faa'iidada xaqdarrada ah, oo kuwo caynkaas ah madax uga dhig, inay ahaadaan kuwo kun kun u taliya, iyo kuwo boqol boqol u taliya, iyo kuwo konton konton u taliya, iyo kuwo toban toban u taliya,
But do thou provide among all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place [them] over them, chiefs of thousands, chiefs of hundreds, chiefs of fifties, and chiefs of tens,
22 oo kuwaasu dadka ha u gar naqeen had iyo goor, oo waxay noqon doontaa in wixii weyn oo dhan ay adiga kuu keenaan, laakiinse wixii yar oo dhan ay iyagu ka gar naqi doonaan; oo sidaasaa hawshu kaaga yaraan doontaa, oo iyana hawshay kula qaybsan doonaan.
that they may judge the people at all times; and it shall be [that] they shall bring to thee every great matter, and that they shall judge every small matter, and they shall lighten [the task] on thee, and they shall bear [it] with thee.
23 Oo haddaad waxan samaysid, oo haddii Ilaah sidan kugu amro, de markaas waad adkaysan kari doontaa, oo dadkan oo dhammuna meeshooda ayay nabad ku tegi doonaan.
If thou do this thing, and God command thee [so], thou wilt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.
24 Sidaas daraaddeed Muuse wuu dhegaystay hadalkii soddoggiis, wuuna wada sameeyey wixii uu ku yidhi oo dhan.
And Moses hearkened to the voice of his father-in-law, and did all that he had said.
25 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ka doortay rag karti leh, oo wuxuu ka dhigay madaxdii dadka, oo ah kuwo kun kun u taliya, iyo kuwo boqol boqol u taliya, iyo kuwo konton konton u taliya, iyo kuwo toban toban u taliya.
And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, chiefs of thousands, chiefs of hundreds, chiefs of fifties, and chiefs of tens.
26 Oo dadkay u gar naqi jireen had iyo goorba, oo arrimaha adadagna waxay u keeni jireen Muuse, laakiinse wixii yaryar oo dhan iyagaa ka gar naqi jiray.
And they judged the people at all times: the hard matters they brought to Moses, but every small matter they judged.
27 Markaasaa Muuse u oggolaaday soddoggiis inuu tago, isna dalkiisii ayuu tegey.
And Moses sent away his father-in-law, and he departed into his land.
