Bilowgii 34
1 Oo Diinah oo ahayd gabadhii Lee'ah ay Yacquub u dhashay ayaa dibadda u baxday inay soo aragto gabdhihii dalka.
Then Dinah, the daughter of Leah, went out to see the women of that region.
2 Markaasuu Shekem ina Xamoor kii reer Xiwi oo ahaa amiirkii dalka arkay iyadii, oo uu kaxaystay oo la jiifsaday, wuuna ceebeeyey iyadii.
And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite, the leader of that land, had seen her, he fell in love with her. And so he seized her and slept with her, overwhelming the virgin by force.
3 Naftiisiina way raacday gabadhii Yacquub oo Diinah ahayd, wuuna jeclaaday gabadhii, si raxmad lehna wuu ula hadlay gabadhii.
And his soul was closely bound to her, and, since she was sorrowful, he soothed her with flattery.
4 Markaasuu Shekem la hadlay aabbihiis Xamoor, oo yidhi, Gabadhan ii doon aan guursadee.
And going on to Hamor, his father, he said, “Obtain this girl for me as a mate.”
5 Haddaba Yacquub waa maqlay in Shekem gabadhiisii Diinah nijaaseeyey; wiilashiisiina duurka ayay xoolihiisa la joogeen; Yacquubna wuu iska aamusay ilaa ay yimaadeen.
But when Jacob had heard this, since his sons were absent and he was occupied in pasturing the cattle, he remained silent until they came back.
6 Markaasaa Xamoor oo Shekem aabbihiis ahaa Yacquub ugu tegey inuu la hadlo isaga.
Then, when Hamor, the father of Shechem, had gone out to speak to Jacob,
7 Oo wiilashii Yacquub ayaa duurka ka yimid markay taas maqleen; nimankiina way caloolxumaayeen, aad bayna u cadhaysnaayeen, maxaa yeelay, nacasnimo buu ku sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil markuu la jiifsaday gabadhii Yacquub, taas oo aanay jid ahayn in la sameeyo.
behold, his sons arrived from the field. And hearing what had happened, they were very angry, because he had done a filthy thing in Israel and, in violating a daughter of Jacob, had perpetrated an unlawful act.
8 Xamoorna wuu la hadlay iyagii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Wiilkaygii Shekem naftiisii aad bay u doonaysaa gabadhaada; haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, iyada sii ha guursadee.
And so Hamor spoke to them: “The soul of my son Shechem has become attached to your daughter. Give her to him as a wife.
9 Oo aan iska guursanno, gabdhihiinna na siiya annaga, idinkuna gabdhahayaga guursada.
And let us celebrate marriages with one with another. Give us your daughters, and receive our daughters.
10 Oo waad nala degganaan doontaan; dalkuna hortiinnuu oolli doonaa; degganaada oo ku baayacmushtara dhexdiisa, oo xoolo ku yeesha.
And live with us. The land is in your power: cultivate, trade, and possess it.”
11 Shekemna wuxuu aabbeheed iyo walaalaheed ku yidhi, Raalli iga ahaada, oo anna wixii aad i weyddiisataan waan idin siin.
And Shechem even said to her father and to her brothers: “May I find favor in your sight, and whatever you will appoint, I will give.
12 In alla intii aad meher iyo yarad doonaysaan i weyddiista, oo anna waan idin siin intii aad igu tidhaahdaan, laakiinse gabadha i siiya aan guursadee.
Increase the dowry, and request gifts, and I will freely bestow what you will ask. Only give me this girl as a wife.”
13 Wiilashii Yacquubna khiyaanay ugu jawaabeen Shekem iyo aabbihiis Xamoor, wayna la hadleen, maxaa yeelay, walaashood Diinah ayuu nijaaseeyey,
The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and his father with deceit, being enraged at the rape of their sister:
14 oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Ma yeeli karno inaan walaashayo siinno nin buuryoqab ah; waayo, taasu ceeb bay nagu ahaan lahayd.
“We are not able to do what you ask, nor to give our sister to an uncircumcised man. For us, this is unlawful and abominable.
15 Si uun baannu idinku yeeli karnaa; taasuna waa haddii aad intiinna ragga ah oo dhan iswada guddaan, oo aad noqotaan sidayada oo kale;
But we may succeed in this, so as to be allied with you, if you are willing to become like us, and if all the male sex among you will be circumcised.
16 markaasaannu gabdhahayaga idin siin doonnaa, oo annaguna waxaan guursan doonnaa gabdhihiinna, oo waannu idinla degganaan doonnaa, oo waxaynu noqon doonnaa isku dad.
Then we will mutually give and receive your daughters as well as ours; and we will live with you, and we will become one people.
17 Laakiinse haddaydnan na maqlin, inaad isguddaan, de markaas gabadhayada waannu wadan, oo waannu tegi.
But if you will not be circumcised, we will take our daughter and withdraw.”
18 Hadalkoodiina waa ka farxiyey Xamoor, iyo wiilkiisii Shekem.
Their offer pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
19 Ninkii dhallinyarada ahaana dib uma uu dhigin inuu taas yeelo, maxaa yeelay, aad buu ugu faraxsanaa Yacquub gabadhiisii, Isna wuu ka wada maamuus badnaa intii guriga aabbihiis joogtay oo dhan.
Neither did the young man cause any delay; in fact he immediately fulfilled what was requested. For he loved the girl very much, and he was well-known throughout his father’s house.
20 Markaasay Xamoor iyo wiilkiisii Shekem magaaladoodii iriddeeda yimaadeen, oo ay raggii magaaladooda la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen,
And entering at the gate of the city, they spoke to the people:
21 Nimankanu waa inala nabad, sidaas daraaddeed dhulka ha degeen, oo ha ka baayacmushtareen dhexdiisa, maxaa yeelay, bal eega, dhulku waa weyn yahay oo waa ku wada filan yahay. Aynu gabdhahooda guursanno, oo innana aan gabdhaheenna siinno iyaga.
“These men are peaceful, and they want to live among us. Let them trade in the land and cultivate it, for, being spacious and broad, it is in need of cultivation. We will receive their daughters as wives, and we will give them ours.
22 Nimanku si uun bay inagu yeelayaan inay inala degganaadaan si aynu isku dad u noqonno, taasuna waa haddii inteenna lab oo dhan loo gudo sida ay iyagu u gudan yihiin.
There is one thing that prevents so great a good: whether we will circumcise our males, imitating the ritual of their nation.
23 Oo miyaan lo'dooda iyo alaabadooda iyo xayawaankooda oo dhammu noqon doonin kuweenna? Bal aynu yeelno uun, oo iyaguna way inala degganaan doonaan.
And their substance, and cattle, and all that they possess, will be ours, if only we will acquiesce to this, and so, in living together, will form one people.”
24 Markaasaa in alla intii ka baxday magaaladiisa iriddeeda waxay maqleen Xamoor iyo wiilkiisii Shekem; markaasaa la wada guday intii labka ahayd oo magaaladiisa ka baxday oo dhan.
And they all agreed to circumcise every one of the males.
25 Oo maalintii saddexaad, markay dhaawaca wada ahaayeen, waxay noqotay in laba ka mid ahaa wiilashii Yacquub oo ahaa Simecoon iyo Laawi, Diinah walaalaheed, uu midkood kastaa seeftiisii qaatay, oo waxay yimaadeen magaaladii, iyagoo aan la ogayn, waxayna wada laayeen intii labka ahayd oo dhan.
And behold, on the third day, when the pain of the wound was greatest, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dinah, boldly entered the city with swords. And they put to death all of the males.
26 Xamoor iyo wiilkiisii Shekemna waxay ku dileen seef afkeed, Diinahna way kala baxeen gurigii Shekem, wayna iska tageen.
They killed Hamor and Shechem together, taking their sister Dinah from the house of Shechem.
27 Wiilashii Yacquubna waxay yimaadeen raqdii kuwii la laayay, oo magaaladiina way dhaceen, maxaa yeelay, walaashood bay ka nijaaseeyeen.
And when they had departed, the other sons of Jacob rushed over the slain, and they plundered the city in vengeance for the rape.
28 Waxayna la tageen adhigoodii iyo lo'doodii iyo dameerradoodii, iyo wax alla wixii magaalada u yiil, iyo wax alla wixii duurka u joogay,
Taking their sheep, and herds, and donkeys, and laying waste to everything else that was in their houses and in their fields,
29 iyo maalkoodii oo dhan, iyo dhallaankoodii oo dhan, iyo naagahoodiiba, way qabsadeen oo way dhaceen, xataa wixii guryaha yiil oo dhan.
they also took their little ones and their wives captive.
30 Yacquubna wuxuu Simecoon iyo Laawi ku yidhi, Dhib baad igu riddeen, maxaa yeelay, waxaad i nacsiiseen dadka dhulka deggan, oo ah reer Kancaan, iyo reer Feris. Haddaba anigoo dadkaygu yar yahay, ayay isu kay wada urursan doonaan oo ay i dili doonaan; markaasna aniga iyo reerkaygaba waa la baabbi'in doonaa.
When they had boldly completed these acts, Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: “You have troubled me, and you have made me hateful to the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the inhabitants of this land. We are few. They, gathering themselves together, may strike me down, and then both I and my house will be wiped away.”
31 Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, De miyey ku habboonayd inuu walaashayo sidii dhillo ula macaamiloodo?
They responded, “Should they abuse our sister like a prostitute?”
