Yashuuca 23
1 Maalmo badan dabadood, markii Rabbigu reer binu Israa'iil ka nasiyey cadaawayaashoodii ku wareegsanaa, Yashuucana da' weynaa, gabowna la dhacay,
And it came to pass a long time after that YHWH had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua waxed old [and] stricken in age. (stricken...: Heb. come into days)
2 ayaa Yashuuca u yeedhay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo waayeelladoodii, iyo madaxdoodii, iyo xaakinnadoodii, iyo saraakiishoodii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu waan da' weynahay oo gabow baan la dhacay;
And Joshua called for all Israel, [and] for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said unto them, I am old [and] stricken in age:
3 oo idinkuna waad aragteen kulli wixii Rabbigu quruumahan oo dhan ku sameeyey idinka aawadiin; waayo, kan idiin diriray waa Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
And ye have seen all that YHWH your Elohim hath done unto all these nations because of you; for YHWH your Elohim [is] he that hath fought for you.
4 Bal eega waan idiin qaybiyey quruumahan hadhay inay qabiilooyinkiinna dhaxal u ahaadaan, tan iyo Webi Urdun iyo kulli quruumihii aan gooyay, iyo xataa tan iyo xagga gabbalku u dhaco ee badda weyn.
Behold, I have divided unto you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even unto the great sea westward. (westward: Heb. at the sunset)
5 Oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu iyaga hortiinnuu ka tuuri doonaa, oo idinka hor eryi doonaa, oo markaasaad dalkooda hantiyi doontaan, sidii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idinkula hadlay.
And YHWH your Elohim, he shall expel them from before you, and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as YHWH your Elohim hath promised unto you.
6 Sidaas daraaddeed aad u dhiirranaada inaad xajisaan oo yeeshaan kulli waxa ku qoran kitaabkii sharcigii Muuse, iyo inaydnaan sharcigaas uga leexan xagga midigta iyo xagga bidixda toona.
Be ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside therefrom [to] the right hand or [to] the left;
7 Oo iska jira inaydnaan quruumahaas dhex iman, kuwaasoo ah kuwa idinku dhex hadhay, oo magacyada ilaahyadoodana marnaba ha soo hadalqaadina, ninnana ha ku dhaaranina, hana u adeegina, hana u sujuudina kolnaba,
That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their elohim, nor cause to swear [by them], neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them:
8 laakiin Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah aad u sii xajista sidaad ilaa maantadan la joogo yeesheen.
But cleave unto YHWH your Elohim, as ye have done unto this day. (But cleave...: or, For if ye will cleave, etc)
9 Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu hortiinna ka eryay quruumo waaweyn oo xoog badan; oo weliba idinka ninna idinma hor istaagin ilaa maantadan la joogo.
For YHWH hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but [as for] you, no man hath been able to stand before you unto this day. (For YHWH ...: or, Then YHWH will drive)
10 Nin keliya oo idinka mid ahu kun buu eryi doonaa; waayo, kan idiin diriraa waa Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah siduu idinkula hadlay.
One man of you shall chase a thousand: for YHWH your Elohim, he [it is] that fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.
11 Haddaba isjira oo jeclaada Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.
Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love YHWH your Elohim. (yourselves: Heb. your souls)
12 Haddaadse dib ugu noqotaan oo aad u xajisataan kuwa ka hadhay quruumahan, kuwaas oo ah kuwa idinku dhex hadhay, haddaad guursataan oo aad isdhex gashaan, oo iyana ay idin dhex galaan,
Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, [even] these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:
13 markaas xaqiiq ahaan u ogaada inuusan Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu mar dambe quruumahaas hortiinna ka eryayn, laakiinse waxay idinku noqon doonaan siriq iyo dabin, oo markaasay dhinacyada idinka karbaashi doonaan, oo indhahana qodxan idinkaga mudi doonaan, ilaa aad ka baabba'daan dalkan wanaagsan oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idin siiyey.
Know for a certainty that YHWH your Elohim will no more drive out [any of] these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which YHWH your Elohim hath given you.
14 Bal eega, maanta waxaan mari doonaa jidka dadka dhulka jooga oo dhan; idinkuna waad ku og tihiin qalbigiinna oo dhan iyo naftiinna oo dhan, inaan wax keliyuhu ka baaqan kulli wixii wanaagsanaa oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu xaggiinna kaga hadlay; laakiinse kulligood way idiin wada ahaadeen oo mid keliyuhu kama baaqan.
And, behold, this day I [am] going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which YHWH your Elohim spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, [and] not one thing hath failed thereof.
15 Oo siday waxyaalihii wanaagsanaa idiinku soo wada degeen, kuwaasoo ahaa kuwii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idinkula hadlay, ayaa Rabbigu idiinku soo dejin doonaa waxyaalaha sharka ah oo dhan, ilaa uu idinka baabbi'iyo dalkan wanaagsan oo Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idin siiyey.
Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all good things are come upon you, which YHWH your Elohim promised you; so shall YHWH bring upon you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which YHWH your Elohim hath given you.
16 Markaad ku xadgudubtaan axdigii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu idinku amray, oo aad ka tagtaan, ee aad u adeegtaan ilaahyo kale, oo aad iyaga u sujuuddaan, de markaasaa cadhada Rabbigu idinku kululaan doontaa, oo aad haddiiba ka baabbi'i doontaan dalka wanaagsan oo uu idin siiyey.
When ye have transgressed the covenant of YHWH your Elohim, which he commanded you, and have gone and served other elohim, and bowed yourselves to them; then shall the anger of YHWH be kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you.
