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 accomplished, the princes approached me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the nations of the lands, notwithstanding their abominations, from the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the 'Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Emorites;
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; and the holy seed have mingled themselves with the nations of these lands; and the hand of the princes and rulers hath been the first 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.
And when I heard this thing, I rent my garment and my mantle, and I plucked out some of the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down astounded.
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.
And then assembled themselves unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the trespass of the exiles; and I sat astounded until the evening sacrifice.
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;
And at the evening sacrifice I rose up from my fasting, and while rending my garment and my mantle, I knelt down upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto 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, O my God, I am ashamed and confounded to lift up my face unto thee, my God! for our iniquities are increased above our head, and our guiltiness is grown up as far as 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.
From the days of our fathers have we been in a great guiltiness even until this day; and through our iniquities have we been delivered, we, our kings, and our priests, into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to the shame 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.
And now for a little moment hath grace been extended from the Lord our God, to preserve us a remnant to escape, and to give us a stake in his holy place, that our God might enlighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving 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 bondmen: yet in our bondage hath our God not forsaken us, but hath extended unto us kindness before the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to exalt the house of our God, and to erect again its ruins, and to give us a fence in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 Haddaba Ilaahayagow, bal maxaan nidhaahnaa tan dabadeed? Waayo, waxaannu ka tagnay amarradaadii,
And now what shall we say, O our God, after this? for we have forsaken thy 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 thou hast commanded through means of thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to take possession thereof, is a land defiled through the defilement of the nations of the lands, through their abominations, with which they have filled it from one end to another through their uncleanness.
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.
And now your daughters shall ye not give unto their sons, and their daughters shall ye not take for your sons, and ye shall not seek their peace and their welfare unto eternity: in order that ye may be strong, and eat the best of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children unto eternity.
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,
And after all that is come over us for our evil deeds, and for our great guiltiness, seeing that thou our God hast spared us [punishing us] less than our iniquities [deserved], and hast given us such deliverance as this:
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?
Should we again make void thy commandments, and make marriage with these people of abominations? wouldst thou not be angry with us even to make an end of us, so that there would not be any remnant or 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.
O Lord, God of Israel, thou art righteous; for we have been left a remnant that hath escaped, as it is this day; behold, we are before thee in our guiltiness; for there is no standing before thee because of this.
