Cesraa 9
1 Oo markii waxyaalahaas la sameeyey dabadeed waxaa ii yimid amiirradii oo igu yidhi, Dadka reer binu Israa'iil, iyo wadaaddadii iyo reer Laawi, gooni isagama ay soocin dadyowgii dalka degganaa, ee waxay sameeyaan waxyaalahooda karaahiyada ah ee ay reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Yebuus, iyo reer Cammoon, iyo reer Moo'aab, iyo Masriyiintii, iyo reer Amor sameeyaan.
Now when these things were done, the princes came near to me, saying, “The people of Israel, the priests, and the Levites have not separated themselves from the peoples of the lands, following their abominations, even those of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
2 Waayo, iyaga iyo wiilashoodiiba waxay guursadeen gabdhahoodii, oo sidaasuu farcankii quduuska ahaa ugu qasmay dadyowgii dalka degganaa; oo weliba xadgudubkaas waxaa madax u ahaa amiirrada iyo taliyayaasha.
For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and for their sons, so that the holy offspring have mixed themselves with the peoples of the lands. Yes, the hand of the princes and rulers has been chief in this trespass.”
3 Oo kolkaan waxaas maqlay ayaan dharkaygii iyo go'aygii jeexjeexay, oo timihii ku yiil madaxayga iyo gadhkaygana waan iska rifay, oo waxaan fadhiistay anigoo wareersan.
When I heard this thing, I tore my garment and my robe, and pulled the hair out of my head and of my beard, and sat down confounded.
4 Markaasaa waxaa igu soo shiray in alla intii ka cabsan jirtay erayga Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, dadkii maxaabiista ka soo noqday xadgudubkoodii aawadiis; oo anna halkaasaan iska fadhiyey tan iyo qurbaankii makhribka anigoo wareersan.
Then everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel were assembled to me because of the trespass of the exiles; and I sat confounded until the evening offering.
5 Oo markii qurbaankii makhribka la gaadhay ayaan ka kacay is-hoosaysiintaydii, iyadoo dharkaygii iyo go'aygiiba jeexjeexan yihiin, markaasaan jilbajoogsaday oo gacmaha u horsaday Rabbiga Ilaahayga ah;
At the evening offering I rose up from my humiliation, even with my garment and my robe torn; and I fell on my knees, and spread out my hands to the LORD my God;
6 kolkaasaan idhi, Ilaahayow, waan ka xishoonayaa oo waan ka yaxyaxayaa inaan wejigayga xaggaaga u soo jeedsho, waayo, Ilaahayow, xumaatooyinkayagii ayaa nagu batay, oo dembilahaanshahayagiina wuxuu kor ugu baxay samooyinka.
and I said, “My God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to you, my God, for our iniquities have increased over our head, and our guiltiness has grown up to the heavens.
7 Tan iyo waagii awowayaashayo iyo ilaa maantadan xujo badan baannu lahayn, oo xumaatooyinkayagii aawadood ayaa annaga iyo boqorradayadii iyo wadaaddadayadiiba loogu gacangeliyey boqorradii dalalka degganaa inay seef nala dhacaan, oo ay maxaabiis naga dhigtaan, oo ay na dhacaan, iyo inay na wareeriyaan, siday maantadan tahay.
Since the days of our fathers we have been exceedingly guilty to this day; and for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plunder, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
8 Oo hadda intii wakhti yar ah ayaa Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ahu raalli naga noqday si qaar nooga hadhaan oo ay u baxsadaan, iyo si uu dhidib noogu siiyo meeshiisa quduuska ah, in Ilaahayagu indhahayaga iftiimiyo, oo uu wakhti yar nagu soo nooleeyo addoonnimadayada.
Now for a little moment grace has been shown from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a stake in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and revive us a little in our bondage.
9 Waayo, waxaannu nahay dad addoommo ah, laakiinse Ilaahayagu naguma dayrin addoonnimadayadii, illowse naxariis buu nagu siiyey boqorradii Faaris hortooda, inuu na nooleeyo aawadeed, si aannu u taagno guriga Ilaahayo, oo aannu u hagaajinno burburkiisii hore, iyo inuu derbi naga dhex siiyo Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalemba.
For we are bondservants; yet our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but has extended loving kindness to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to revive us, to set up the house of our God, and to repair its ruins, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 Haddaba Ilaahayagow, bal maxaan nidhaahnaa tan dabadeed? Waayo, waxaannu ka tagnay amarradaadii,
“Now, our God, what shall we say after this? For we have forsaken your commandments,
11 aad noogu soo dhiibtay nebiyadii addoommadaada ahaa, oo aad ku tidhi, Dalka aad inaad hantidaan ugu socotaan waa dal aan nadiif ahayn, oo wuxuu ku nijaasoobay dadyowga deggan nijaastooda, iyo karaahiyadooda, iyo wasakhnimadooda dhammaan ka buuxsantay gees ilaa ka gees.
which you have commanded by your servants the prophets, saying, ‘The land to which you go to possess is an unclean land through the uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, through their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their filthiness.
12 Haddaba gabdhihiinna wiilashooda ha u guurinina, wiilashiinnana gabdhahooda ha u guurinina, weligiinna ha doonina nabaddooda ama barwaaqadooda, si aad xoog u yeelataan, oo aad u cuntaan dalka wixiisa wanaagsan, oo aad carruurtiinnana dhaxal ahaan ugaga tagtaan weligiin.
Now therefore do not give your daughters to their sons. Do not take their daughters to your sons, nor seek their peace or their prosperity forever, that you may be strong and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children forever.’
13 Oo tanu waxay noogu soo degtay falimahayagii sharka ahaa aawadood, iyo xujadayadii weynayd aawadeed, maxaa yeelay, Ilaahayagiiyow, waxaad nagu taqsiirtay wax ka yar intii xumaatooyinkayagu mudnaayeen, oo weliba waxaad na siisay dad caynkan ah oo noo hadha,
“After all that has come on us for our evil deeds and for our great guilt, since you, our God, have punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us such a remnant,
14 haddaba waxaas oo dhan dabadeed ma mar kalaannu amarradaada jebinnaa, oo aannu la xididnaa dadyowga karaahiyadan sameeya? Sow noo cadhoon maysid jeeraad na wada baabbi'isid oo aadan innaba naga reebin dad hadha iyo mid naga baxsada toona?
shall we again break your commandments, and join ourselves with the peoples that do these abominations? Would not you be angry with us until you had consumed us, so that there would be no remnant, nor any to escape?
15 Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, xaq baad tahay, waayo, waxaannu nahay dad hadhay oo baxsaday, sida ay maantadan tahay; bal eeg, waxaannu kula hor joognaa xujadayada, waayo, taas aawadeed ninna hortaada ma istaagi karo.
LORD, the God of Israel, you are righteous; for we are left a remnant that has escaped, as it is today. Behold, we are before you in our guiltiness; for no one can stand before you because of this.”
