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.

And it comes to pass, at that time, that Judah goes down from his brothers, and turns aside to a man, an Adullamite, whose name [is] 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.

and Judah sees there the daughter of a man, a Canaanite, whose name [is] Shuah, and takes her, and goes in to her.

3 Wayna uuraysatay oo waxay dhashay wiil, magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Ceer.

And she conceives, and bears a son, and he calls his name Er;

4 Oo haddana mar kalay uuraysatay oo waxay dhashay wiil; magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Oonaan.

and she conceives again, and bears a son, and calls his name Onan;

5 Oo weliba haddana wiil kalay dhashay, magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Sheelaah; oo isna wuxuu joogay Kesiib, markay dhashay isaga.

and she adds again, and bears a son, and calls his name Shelah; and he was in Chezib in her bearing him.

6 Markaasaa Yahuudah naag u guuriyey curadkiisii ahaa Ceer, magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Taamaar.

And Judah takes a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name [is] Tamar;

7 Yahuudah curadkiisii ahaa Ceer waa ku xumaa Rabbiga hortiisa; Rabbiguna waa dilay isagii.

and Er, Judah’s firstborn, is evil in the eyes of YHWH, and YHWH puts him to death.

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.

And Judah says to Onan, “Go in to the wife of your brother, and marry her, and raise up seed to 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.

and Onan knows that the seed is not [reckoned] his; and it has come to pass, if he has gone in to his brother’s wife, that he has destroyed [it] to the earth, so as not to give seed to his brother;

10 Wixii uu sameeyeyna Rabbiga hortiisa aad buu ugu xumaa; oo markaasuu isagiina dilay.

and that which he has done is evil in the eyes of YHWH, and He puts him also to death.

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.

And Judah says to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Abide [as] a widow at your father’s house, until my son Shelah grows up”; for he said, “Lest he die—even he—like his brothers”; and Tamar goes and dwells at 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.

And the days are multiplied, and the daughter of Shuah, Judah’s wife, dies; and Judah is comforted, and goes up to his sheep-shearers, he and Hirah his friend the Adullamite, to Timnath.

13 Markaasaa Taamaar loo sheegay, oo waxaa lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, soddoggaa wuxuu tegayaa xagga Timnaad inuu idihiisii dhogorta ka soo xiirto.

And it is declared to Tamar, saying, “Behold, your husband’s father is going up to Timnath to shear his flock”;

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.

and she turns aside the garments of her widowhood from off her, and covers herself with a veil, and wraps herself up, and sits in the opening of Enayim, which [is] by the way to Timnath, for she has seen that Shelah has grown up, and she has not been given to him for a wife.

15 Markii Yahuudah arkay ayuu u maleeyey inay dhillo tahay; maxaa yeelay, wejigeeday qarisay.

And Judah sees her, and reckons her for a harlot, for she has 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?

and he turns aside to her by the way and says, “Please come, let me come in to you,” for he has not known that she [is] his daughter-in-law; and she says, “What do you give to 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?

And he says, “I send a kid of the goats from the flock.” And she says, “Do you give 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.

And he says, “What [is] the pledge that I give to you?” And she says, “Your seal, and your ribbon, and your staff which [is] in your hand”; and he gives to her, and goes in to her, and she conceives to him;

19 Kolkaasay kacday oo tagtay, oo intay indhashareerteedii iska dhigtay, ayay xidhatay dharkii carmalinimadeedii.

and she rises, and goes, and turns aside her veil from off her, and puts 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.

And Judah sends the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the hand of the woman, and he has not found 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.

And he asks the men of her place, saying, “Where [is] the separated one—she in Enayim, by the way?” And they say, “There has not been in this [place] a separated one.”

22 Markaasuu ku noqday Yahuudah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Iyadii waan waayay, dadkii meeshaa degganaana waxay igu yidhaahdeen, Halkan dhillo ma joogi jirin.

And he turns back to Judah and says, “I have not found her; and the men of the place also have said, There has not been in this [place] a separated one,”

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.

and Judah says, “Let her take to herself, lest we become despised; behold, I sent this kid, 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.

And it comes to pass about three months [after], that it is declared to Judah, saying, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has committed fornication; and also, behold, she has conceived by fornication”: and Judah says, “Bring her out—and she is 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.

She is brought out, and she has sent to her husband’s father, saying, “To a man whose these [are], I [am] pregnant”; and she says, “Please discern whose these [are]—the seal, and the ribbons, 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.

And Judah discerns and says, “She has been more righteous than I, because that I did not give her to my son Shelah”; and he has not added to know her again.

27 Oo bal eeg, markii ay foolatay mataano baa ku jiray maxalkeeda.

And it comes to pass in the time of her bearing, that behold, twins [are] 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.

and it comes to pass in her bearing, that [one] gives out a hand, and the midwife takes and binds on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, “This has come 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.

And it comes to pass as he draws back his hand, that behold, his brother has come out, and she says, “What! You have broken forth—the breach [is] on you”; and he calls his name Perez;

30 Dabadeedna waxaa soo baxay walaalkiis, kii ay dunta guduudanu gacanta ugu xidhnayd; magiciisiina waxaa loo bixiyey Serax.

and afterward his brother has come out, on whose hand [is] the scarlet thread, and he calls his name Zerah.
