Bilowgii 38
1 Oo waagaas waxay noqotay inuu Yahuudah ka tegey walaalihiis, oo wuxuu u leexday nin magiciisa la odhan jiray Xiirah oo reer Cadullaam ah.
At that time, Judah went down from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 Markaasaa Yahuudah wuxuu halkaas ku arkay nin reer Kancaan ah oo magiciisa la odhan jiray Shuuca gabadhiisii. Kolkaasuu kaxaystay iyadii oo uu u tegey.
There, Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite man named Shua. He took her, and went in to her.
3 Wayna uuraysatay oo waxay dhashay wiil, magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Ceer.
She conceived, and bore a son; and he named him Er.
4 Oo haddana mar kalay uuraysatay oo waxay dhashay wiil; magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Oonaan.
She conceived again, and bore a son; and she named him Onan.
5 Oo weliba haddana wiil kalay dhashay, magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Sheelaah; oo isna wuxuu joogay Kesiib, markay dhashay isaga.
She yet again bore a son, and named him Shelah. He was at Chezib when she bore him.
6 Markaasaa Yahuudah naag u guuriyey curadkiisii ahaa Ceer, magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Taamaar.
Judah took a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 Yahuudah curadkiisii ahaa Ceer waa ku xumaa Rabbiga hortiisa; Rabbiguna waa dilay isagii.
Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the LORD’s sight. So the LORD killed him.
8 Markaasaa Yahuudah wuxuu ku yidhi Oonaan, Naagta walaalkaa u tag oo dumaal, oo ku samee wixii ninkeeda walaalkiis ku samayn lahaa, oo farcan u reeb walaalkaa.
Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother’s wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”
9 Oonaanna wuu ogaa inaan farcanku kiisii noqonayn, oo markuu u tegey naagtii walaalkiis ayuu shahwadiisii ku daadiyey dhulka, si uusan farcan u siin walaalkiis.
Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; and when he went in to his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground, lest he should give offspring to his brother.
10 Wixii uu sameeyeyna Rabbiga hortiisa aad buu ugu xumaa; oo markaasuu isagiina dilay.
The thing which he did was evil in the LORD’s sight, and he killed him also.
11 Markaasuu Yahuudah ku yidhi gabadhii Taamaar oo uu soddogga u ahaa, Carmalnimo ku joog guriga aabbahaa, ilaa uu wiilkayga Sheelaah koro; waayo, wuxuu isyidhi, Waaba intaasoo uu isna dhintaa sidii walaalihiis. Kolkaasay Taamaar tagtay oo gurigii aabbeheed joogtay.
Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father’s house, until Shelah, my son, is grown up;” for he said, “Lest he also die, like his brothers.” Tamar went and lived in her father’s house.
12 Wakhti dheer ka dib waxaa dhimatay Shuuca gabadhiisii oo ahayd naagtii Yahuudah. Markaasaa Yahuudah loo tacsiyeeyey, oo wuxuu tegey xagga kuwii idihiisa dhogorta ka xiiri jiray oo joogay Timnaad, isaga iyo saaxiibkiis Xiirah kii reer Cadullaamba.
After many days, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.
13 Markaasaa Taamaar loo sheegay, oo waxaa lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, soddoggaa wuxuu tegayaa xagga Timnaad inuu idihiisii dhogorta ka soo xiirto.
Tamar was told, “Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
14 Markaasay iska dhigtay dharkii carmalinimadeeda, oo waxay hagoogatay indhashareerteedii, oo intay isdedday ayay waxay fadhiisatay iriddii Cenayim, oo ku ag tiil jidka loo maro Timnaad, waayo, waxay aragtay inuu Sheelaah weynaaday, oo aan loo guurin iyada.
She took off the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she was not given to him as a wife.
15 Markii Yahuudah arkay ayuu u maleeyey inay dhillo tahay; maxaa yeelay, wejigeeday qarisay.
When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
16 Kolkaasuu ku soo leexday iyadoo jidka ag fadhida, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, kaalay aan kuu tagee; waayo, ma uu ogayn inay tahay gabadhii uu soddogga u ahaa. Kolkaasay waxay ku tidhi, Maxaad i siinaysaa aad ii tagtide?
He turned to her by the way, and said, “Please come, let me come in to you,” for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”
17 Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaan adhiga kaaga soo diri doonaa waxar. Iyana waxay tidhi, Rahaamad ma i siinaysaa intaad ii soo diraysid?
He said, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” She said, “Will you give me a pledge, until you send it?”
18 Isna wuxuu yidhi, Maxaan rahaamad kuu siiyaa? Kolkaasay tidhi, I sii kaatunkaaga iyo xadhiggaaga, iyo ushaada aad gacanta ku haysatid. Kolkaasuu siiyey, oo uu u tegey iyadii, oo iyana xaggiisay ka uuraysatay.
He said, “What pledge will I give you?” She said, “Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” He gave them to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
19 Kolkaasay kacday oo tagtay, oo intay indhashareerteedii iska dhigtay, ayay xidhatay dharkii carmalinimadeedii.
She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 Markaasaa Yahuudah waxar adhiga ka soo diray oo wuxuu ugu soo dhiibay gacanta saaxiibkiis kii reer Cadullaam, inuu rahaamaddii ka soo qaado gacantii naagta, laakiinse iyadii wuu waayay.
Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman’s hand, but he did not find her.
21 Markaasuu weyddiiyey dadkii degganaa meesheedii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Meeday dhilladii joogi jirtay Cenayim jidka dhinaciisa? Kolkaasay iyana ku yidhaahdeen, Halkan dhillo ma joogi jirin.
Then he asked the men of her place, saying, “Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?” They said, “There has been no prostitute here.”
22 Markaasuu ku noqday Yahuudah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Iyadii waan waayay, dadkii meeshaa degganaana waxay igu yidhaahdeen, Halkan dhillo ma joogi jirin.
He returned to Judah, and said, “I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, ‘There has been no prostitute here.’”
23 Markaasaa Yahuudah yidhi, Ha iska qaadato, waaba intaasoo aynu ku ceebownaaye; waayo, bal eeg, anigu waxaan u diray waxarkan, waana aad soo weyday iyadii.
Judah said, “Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you have not found her.”
24 Oo waxay noqotay in muddo saddex bilood ku dhow dabadeed Yahuudah war loo soo sheegay, oo lagu yidhi, Gabadhii Taamaar oo aad soddogga u ahayd waa dhillowday; oo dhillanimadeedii bay ku uuraysatay. Markaasaa Yahuudah yidhi, Soo bixiya oo ha la gubo.
About three months later, Judah was told, “Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute. Moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution.” Judah said, “Bring her out, and let her be burned.”
25 Kolkaasay markii la soo bixiyey farriin u dirtay soddoggeed, oo waxay tidhi, Ninka alaabtan leh ayaa i uureeyey; oo waxay kaloo tidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, bal hubso ninka leh kuwan ah kaatunka iyo xadhkaha, iyo usha.
When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “I am with child by the man who owns these.” She also said, “Please discern whose these are—the signet, and the cords, and the staff.”
26 Markaasaa Yahuudah qirtay iyagii, oo wuxuu yidhi, Iyadu way iga xaqsan tahay, waayo, waxaan iyada siin waayay wiilkayga Sheelaah ah. Mar dambena uma uu tegin iyadii.
Judah acknowledged them, and said, “She is more righteous than I, because I did not give her to Shelah, my son.” He knew her again no more.
27 Oo bal eeg, markii ay foolatay mataano baa ku jiray maxalkeeda.
In the time of her travail, behold, twins were in her womb.
28 Oo waxay noqotay, in markii ay foolatay uu midkood gacan soo bixiyey; markaasay umulisadii qaadatay dun guduudan oo ay gacantiisii ku xidhay, oo waxay tidhi, Kanaa soo hor baxay.
When she travailed, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This came out first.”
29 Oo waxay noqotay, markuu gacanta dib u ceshaday, inuu walaalkiis soo baxay; oo iyana waxay tidhi, De maxaad u soo dustay? Sidaas daraaddeed magiciisii waxaa loo bixiyey Feres.
As he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out, and she said, “Why have you made a breach for yourself?” Therefore his name was called Perez.
30 Dabadeedna waxaa soo baxay walaalkiis, kii ay dunta guduudanu gacanta ugu xidhnayd; magiciisiina waxaa loo bixiyey Serax.
Afterward his brother came out, who had the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
