Baxniintii 32
1 Oo markii dadkii arkay in Muuse raagay oo uusan buurtii ka soo degin, ayaa dadkii iyagoo urursan Haaruun u yimaadeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Kac, oo inoo samee ilaahyo ina hor socda; waayo, Muusahan oo ah ninkii inaga soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, garan mayno wax ku dhacay.
[(Moses/I) stayed on top of the mountain a long time]. When the people realized that he/I was not returning quickly, they gathered near Aaron and said to him, “We do not know what has happened to that man Moses who brought us here out of Egypt. So quickly, make us ([an idol/a statue of a god]) who will lead us!”
2 Markaasaa Haaruun wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Soo bixiya hilqadaha dahabka ah oo dhegaha ugu jira naagihiinna, iyo wiilashiinna, iyo gabdhihiinna, oo ii keena.
Aaron replied to them, “All right, [I will do that, but] tell your wives and your sons and your daughters to take off all their gold earrings and bring them to me.”
3 Markaasaa dadkii oo dhammu waxay soo bixiyeen hilqadihii dahabka ahaa oo dhegaha ugu jiray oo waxay u keeneen Haaruun.
So the people did that. They took off all their gold earrings and brought them to Aaron.
4 Kolkaasuu gacmahooda ka guddoomay, oo wuxuu ku xardhay alaabta wax lagu xardho, wuxuuna ka sameeyey weyl dahab la shubay ah; oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Reer binu Israa'iilow, kanu waa ilaahiinnii dalka Masar idinka soo waday.
He took all those gold earrings and melted them in a fire. He [poured the gold into a mold and] made a statue that looked like a young bull. The people saw it and said, “This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from the land of Egypt!”
5 Oo Haaruun markuu arkay ayuu meel allabari ka hor dhisay, markaasaa Haaruun ogeysiis ku dhawaaqay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Berri waa iiddii Rabbiga.
When Aaron saw [what was happening], he built an altar in front of the [statue of the] young bull. Then he announced, “Tomorrow we will have a festival to honor Yahweh!”
6 Markaasay subaxdii dambe aroor hore keceen, oo waxay bixiyeen qurbaanno la gubo, oo waxay keeneen qurbaanno nabaadiino, markaasay dadkii u fadhiisteen inay wax cunaan oo wax cabbaan, oo ay u keceen inay cayaaraan.
So the people got up early the next morning and brought animals to kill and burn as sacrifices on the altar. They also brought sacrifices to maintain fellowship with Yahweh. Then they sat down to eat and drink [wine]. Then they got up and started dancing in a very immoral way.
7 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Kac oo hoos u deg, waayo, dadkaagii aad dalkii Masar ka soo bixisay, way iskharribeen,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Go back down from the mountain, because your people, the ones that you brought up here from Egypt, have [already] (become very depraved/wicked)!
8 oo haddiiba way ka leexdeen jidkii aan ku amray, oo waxay samaysteen weyl dahab la shubay ah, wayna caabudeen, oo allabarina way u bixiyeen, oo waxayna yidhaahdeen, Reer binu Israa'iilow, kanu waa ilaahiinnii dalka Masar idinka soo waday.
They have already (left the road that I showed them/stopped obeying me)! They have made [a statue of] a young bull from melted gold. They have worshiped it and offered sacrifices to it. And they are saying, ‘This is the god of us Israeli people! This is the one who brought us up from Egypt!’”
9 Kolkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Anigu dadkan waan arkay oo waa dad madax adag,
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “I have seen that these people are very stubborn.
10 haddaba iska kay daa, aan aad ugu cadhoodee, oo aan kulligood baabbi'iyee, oo waxaan adiga kaa dhigi doonaa quruun weyn.
I am very angry with them, and so I am going to get rid of them. Do not try to stop me! Then I will cause you and your descendants to become a great nation.”
11 Markaasaa Muuse baryay Rabbiga Ilaahiis ah oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, maxaad aad ugu cadhoonaysaa dadkaaga aad dalkii Masar kaga soo bixisay itaal weyn iyo gacan xoog leh?
But Moses/I pleaded with his/my God, Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh, (you should not be very angry with your people!/why are you so angry with your people [RHQ]?) These are the people whom you rescued from Egypt with very great power [MTY, DOU]!
12 Bal Masriyiintu maxay u odhan doonaan, Wuxuu iyaga u saaray xumaan inuu buuraha ku laayo iyo inuu dhulka iyaga ka baabbi'iyo? Rabbiyow, ka leexo cadhadaada kulul oo ka noqo xumaantan aad damacsan tahay inaad dadkaaga ku samaysid.
Do not [do anything that would] allow the people of Egypt to say, ‘Their god led them out from our country, but [he did that] only [because he wanted] to kill them in the mountains and get rid of them completely [RHQ]!’ Stop being so angry! (Change your mind/Do not do what you have told me that you will do)! Do not do to your people this terrible thing [that you have just said that you will do]
13 Bal xusuuso addoommadaadii ahaa Ibraahim, iyo Isxaaq, iyo Israa'iil, oo aad naftaada ugu dhaaratay, oo aad ku tidhi, Farcankiinna waxaan u badin doonaa sida xiddigaha cirka, oo dalkan aan ka hadlay oo dhan waxaan siin doonaa farcankiinna, wayna dhaxli doonaan weligood.
Think about your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You solemnly promised them, ‘I will enable you to have as many descendants as there are stars in the sky.’ You said to them, ‘I will give to your descendants all the land that I am promising to give them. It will be their land forever.’”
14 Markaasaa Rabbigu ka noqday xumaantii uu damacsanaa inuu dadkiisa ku sameeyo.
So Yahweh changed his mind. He did not do to his people the terrible thing that he said he would do.
15 Markaasuu Muuse jeestay, oo buurtii hoos uga degay, isagoo labadii loox oo maragga ahaa gacanta ku sita, looxyadana wax baa kaga qornaa labadooda dhinacba; oo dhankan iyo dhankaasba wax qoran baa kaga yiil.
Moses/I turned away from God and went down the mountain, carrying in his hands the two stone slabs on which Yahweh had engraved his commandments. He had written on both sides of the slabs.
16 Oo looxyadu waxay ahaayeen shuqulkii Ilaah, oo farta ku qoranuna waxay ahayd fartii Ilaah oo looxyada ku xardhan.
God [himself] had made the slabs, and he was the one who had engraved the commandments on them.
17 Oo markii Yashuuca maqlay qayladii ay dadku ku qaylinayeen ayuu Muuse ku yidhi, War xeradii qaylo colaadeed baa ka yeedhaysa.
Joshua heard the very loud noise of the people shouting. So when he and I got near the camp, Joshua said, “There is a noise in the camp that sounds like [the noise of] a battle!”
18 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Kaasu ma aha codka kuwa guulaysta, mana aha codka kuwa laga adkaado, laakiinse waxaan maqlayaa kuwa gabyaya codkood.
But Moses/I replied, [“No], that is not the shouting that people do when they have won a victory or when they have been defeated [in a battle] What I hear is the sound of [loud] singing!”
19 Oo markuu xeradii ku soo dhowaaday wuxuu arkay weyshii iyo cayaartii; markaasaa Muuse aad u cadhooday, looxyadiina gacmihiisa wuu ka tuuray, oo wuxuu ku jejebiyey buurta hoosteedii.
As soon as Moses/I came close to the camp and saw the statue of the young bull and saw the people dancing, he/I became extremely angry. He/I threw the stone tablets that he/I was carrying down onto the ground, there at the base of the mountain.
20 Markaasuu weyshii ay samaysteen qaaday, dab buuna ku gubay oo daqiijiyey, oo intuu biyaha ku dul daadiyey ayuu reer binu Israa'iil cabsiiyey.
Then he/I took the statue of the young bull that they had made and melted it in the fire. [When it cooled], he/I ground it into [fine] powder. Then he/I mixed the powder with water and forced the Israeli people to drink it.
21 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu Haaruun ku yidhi, War maxaa dadkanu kugu sameeyey oo aad dembi weyn ugu keentay?
Then he/I said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, with the result that you have made them commit such a terrible sin?”
22 Markaasaa Haaruun wuxuu yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, bal ha ii cadhoon; waayo, adiguba waad og tahay inay dadkanu sharka jecel yihiin.
Aaron replied, “Please do not be angry with me, sir. You know that these people are very determined to do evil things.
23 Waayo, waxay igu yidhaahdeen, Inoo samee ilaahyo ina hor socda, waayo, Muusahan oo ah ninkii inaga soo bixiyey dalkii Masar, garan mayno wax ku dhacay.
They said to me, ‘As for that man Moses, the one who brought us up here from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him. So make for us an idol that will lead us!’
24 Markaasaan ku idhi, Ku alla kii dahab haystaa, ha siibo. Kolkaasay i siiyeen, anna dabkaan ku tuuray, oo waxaa ka soo baxday weyshan.
So I said to them, ‘Everyone who is wearing [gold earrings] should take them off.’ So they [took them off and] gave them to me. I threw them into the fire, and out came this statue of a young bull!”
25 Oo markii Muuse arkay in dadkii layska sii daayay, waayo, Haaruun baa sii daayay oo ku kashifay cadaawayaashooda hortooda,
Moses/I saw that Aaron had allowed the people to become completely out of control and to do things that would make their enemies think the Israeli people were foolish.
26 ayuu Muuse istaagay xerada iriddeedii, oo wuxuu yidhi, Ku alla kii Rabbiga la gees ahow, ii kaalay. Markaasay reer Laawi oo dhammu agtiisa ku soo urureen.
So he/I stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, “Everyone who is loyal to Yahweh should come [closer] to me!” So the descendants of Levi gathered around him/me.
27 Markaasuu wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil sidan buu leeyahay, Nin waluba seeftiisa dhinaca ha ku xidho, oo kulligiin irid ilaa irid xerada hore iyo dib u dhex qaada, oo nin waluba ha dilo walaalkiis, iyo saaxiibkiis, iyo deriskiisaba.
Then he/I said to them, “Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people, commands that every one of you should fasten your sword to your side, and then go through the camp from this entrance to the other one, and kill some of your relatives and your companions and your neighbors.”
28 Oo reer Laawi waxay yeeleen hadalkii Muuse, oo maalintaas dadkii waxaa ka dhintay qiyaastii saddex kun oo nin.
The descendants of Levi did what Moses/I told them to do, and they killed 3,000 men on that day.
29 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu ku yidhi, Inuu maanta barako idinku soo dejiyo aawadeed, Rabbiga quduus isaga dhiga oo nin waluba ha ka gees noqdo wiilkiisa iyo walaalkiisba.
Moses/I said to the descendants of Levi, “Today you have dedicated yourselves to serving Yahweh by (killing/not sparing) [even] your own sons and brothers, and as a result Yahweh will bless you.”
30 Oo waxaa dhacday, in Muuse maalintii dambe dadkii ku yidhi, Idinku dembi weyn baad samayseen, oo haatan waxaan kor ugu tegayaa Rabbiga; mindhaa dembigiinna aawadiis ayaan u kafaaro gudi doonaaye.
The next day, Moses/I said to the people, “You have committed a terrible sin. But I will now climb up the mountain again to talk with Yahweh. Perhaps I can [persuade him] to forgive you for sinning [like this].”
31 Markaasaa Muuse wuxuu ku noqday Rabbiga xaggiisa, oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal dadkanu dembi weyn bay sameeyeen, oo waxay samaysteen ilaahyo dahab ah.
So Moses/I went back up the mountain and said to Yahweh, “I am sorry to admit that these people have committed a terrible sin. They have made for themselves a gold idol and have worshiped it.
32 Laakiin hadda haddaad dembigooda cafidid; haddii kalese waan ku baryayaaye, kitaabkaaga aad qortay iga tir.
But now I ask you to please forgive them for having sinned. If you will not forgive them, then erase my name from the book in which you have written [the names of your people].”
33 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Ku alla kii igu dembaabay weeye kan aan kitaabkayga ka tirayaa.
But Yahweh said to Moses/me, “It is [only] those who have sinned against me whose names I will erase from that book.
34 Ee haddaba tag, oo meeshii aan kaala hadlay dadka u hor kac, oo bal eeg, malaa'igtayda ayaa ku hor kici doontee; habase yeeshee maalinta aan soo booqdo ayaan dembigooda u ciqaabi doonaa.
Now you go back down and lead the [Israeli] people to the place that I told you about. Keep in mind that my angel will go in front of you. But, at the time that I determine, I will punish them for their sin.”
35 Markaasaa Rabbigu dadkii belaayo ku riday, waayo, waxay sameeyeen weyshii taasoo tii Haaruun sameeyey ahayd.
[Later] Yahweh caused a plague to strike the people because they had told Aaron to make the gold [statue of a] young bull.
