Yashuuca 24

1 Markaasaa Yashuuca qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan ku soo ururshay Shekem, oo wuxuu u yeedhay waayeelladii reer binu Israa'iil, iyo madaxdoodii, iyo xaakinnadoodii, iyo saraakiishoodii, oo waxay kulligood ku soo urureen Ilaah hortiisa.

And Joshua gathered together all the tribes of Israel, unto Shechem, —and called for the elders of Israel, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and they presented themselves before God.

2 Oo Yashuuca wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Awowayaashiin waxay waa hore degganaan jireen Webigii shishadiisa, oo waxaa ka mid ahaa Terax oo ahaa aabbihii Ibraahim iyo Naaxoor; waxayna u adeegi jireen ilaahyo kale.

Then said Joshua unto all the people—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Beyond the River, dwelt your fathers from age-past times, [unto] Terah, father of Abraham, and father of Nahor, —and they served other gods.

3 Markaasaan awowgiin Ibraahim ka soo kexeeyey Webiga shishadiisa, oo aan dhex mariyey dalka Kancaan oo dhan, oo farcankiisiina waan badiyey, oo waxaan siiyey Isxaaq.

So I took your father, Abraham, from beyond the River, and led him through all the land of Canaan, —and multiplied his seed, and gave unto him, Isaac;

4 Isxaaqna waxaan siiyey Yacquub iyo Ceesaw; Ceesawna waxaan Buur Seciir u siiyey inuu hantiyo, oo Yacquub iyo carruurtiisiina waxay ku dhaadhaceen xagga dalka Masar.

and gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau, —and gave unto Esau, Mount Seir, to possess it, but, Jacob and his sons, went down into Egypt.

5 Oo markaasaan soo diray Muuse iyo Haaruun, oo Masarna belaayaan ku riday, sidii wixii aan dhexdooda ku sameeyey; oo dabadeedna waan idinka soo saaray.

Then sent I Moses and Aaron, and plagued Egypt, according to that which I did in their midst, and, afterwards, brought you forth.

6 Oo awowayaashiin waxaan ka soo saaray Masar, oo markaasaad timaadeen badda; oo Masriyiintiina awowayaashiin ayay ku sii eryadeen gaadhifardood, iyo fardooley, ilaa ay yimaadeen Badda Cas.

Yea I brought forth your fathers, out of Egypt, and ye came unto the sea, and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers, with chariots and with horsemen, unto the Red Sea.

7 Oo markay Rabbiga u qayshadeen ayuu gudcur kala dhex dhigay idinka iyo Masriyiintii, oo badduu ku soo daayay oo ku daboolay; oo indhihiinnaad ku aragteen wixii aan ku sameeyey Masar; oo idinna maalmo badan ayaad cidlada degganaydeen.

So they made outcry unto Yahweh, and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought in upon them the sea, and covered them, —and your eyes beheld what I did with the Egyptians. And, when ye had remained in the desert many days,

8 Oo markaasaan idin keenay dalkii reer Amor, kuwaasoo degganaa Webi Urdun shishadiisa, oo iyana way idinla dirireen; kolkaasaan gacanta idiin geliyey, oo dalkoodiina waad hantideen, iyagiina hortiinna waan ka baabbi'iyey.

then I brought you into the land of the Amorites, who were dwelling over the Jordan, and they fought with you, —then delivered I them into your hand, and ye took possession of their land, so I destroyed them from before you.

9 Dabadeedna waxaa kacay boqorkii Moo'aab oo ahaa Baalaaq ina Sifoor, oo wuxuu la diriray reer binu Israa'iil, markaasuu u yeedhay oo idiinku soo diray inuu idin habaaro Balcaam ina Becoor.

Then rose up Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab, and made war with Israel, —and sent and called for Balaam son of Beor, to curse you;

10 Laakiinse anigu Balcaam ma aanan dhegaysan; sidaas daraaddeed weliba wuu idiin sii duceeyey; oo sidaasaan gacantiisii idiinka samatabbixiyey.

but I was not willing to hearken unto Balaam, —so, he kept on blessing, you, and I rescued you out of his hand.

11 Oo idinku waxaad ka soo gudubteen Webi Urdun oo aad timaadeen Yerixoo, oo dadkii reer Yerixoo way idinla dagaallameen, kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Kancaan, iyo reer Xeed, iyo reer Girgaash, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus, oo anna dhammaantood gacantaan idiin geliyey.

Then passed ye over the Jordan, and came in unto Jericho, and, when they would have made war with you—even the lords of Jericho—the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Girgashite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, then delivered I them into your hand.

12 Oo waxaan idinka hor mariyey xoonkii hortiinna ka eryay iyagii oo ahaa xataa labadii boqor oo reer Amor, oo kuwaas kuma aadan eryin seeftaada iyo qaansadaada toona.

And I sent before you the hornet, which drave them out from before you, the two kings of the Amorites, —not with thy sword, nor with thy bow.

13 Oo waxaan idin siiyey dal aydnaan u hawshoon, iyo magaalooyin aydnaan dhisan, oo waad iska dhex degtaan, oo waxaad ka cuntaan canab iyo saytuun aydnaan beeran.

Thus I gave unto you a land on which thou hadst not laboured, and cities which ye had not built, and ye proceeded to dwell therein, —of vineyards and oliveyards, which ye planted not, ye are eating.

14 Haddaba Rabbiga ka cabsada, oo daacad iyo run ugu adeega; oo iska fogeeya ilaahyadii awowayaashiin ugu adeegi jireen Webiga shishadiisa, iyo dalka Masar dhexdiisa, oo idinku waxaad u adeegtaan Rabbiga.

Now, therefore, revere ye Yahweh, and serve him, in sincerity and in truth, —and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve ye Yahweh.

15 Oo hadday shar idinla tahay inaad Rabbiga u adeegtaan, haddaba maanta doorta kii aad u adeegi doontaan, ama ha noqoto ilaahyadii awowayaashiin ugu adeegi jireen Webiga shishadiisa, ama ilaahyada reer Amor, kuwaas oo aad dalkoodii deggan tihiin; laakiinse aniga iyo reerkayguba waxaannu u adeegi doonaa Rabbiga.

But, if it be, a vexation, in your eyes, to serve Yahweh, choose ye for yourselves, to-day, whom ye will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served, that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye are dwelling, —but, I and my house, will serve Yahweh.

16 Kolkaasaa dadkii waxay ugu jawaabeen, Ilaah ha naga fogeeyo inaannu Rabbiga ka tagno oo aannu u adeegno ilaahyo kale;

Then responded the people, and said, Far be it from us, that we should forsake Yahweh, —to serve other gods;

17 waayo, Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ahu waa kii innaga iyo awowayaasheenba inaga soo saaray dalkii Masar oo ahaa gurigii addoonsiga, oo isagu waa kii calaamooyinkaas waaweyn ku sameeyey horteenna oo inagu dhawrayay jidkii aan soo marnay oo dhan, oo inaga samatabbixiyey dadkii aynu soo dhex soconnay oo dhan.

for, as for Yahweh our God, he, brought up both us and our fathers, out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants, —and who did before our eyes, these great signs, and preserved us throughout all the way wherein we journeyed, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed;

18 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu horteenna ka eryay dadkii oo dhan, iyo xataa reer Amor oo dalka degganaa; oo sidaas daraaddeed annaguna waxaannu u adeegi doonnaa Rabbiga, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa Ilaahayo.

then did Yahweh drive out all the peoples, even the Amorites were dwelling in the land, from before us, —we too, will serve Yahweh, for, he, is our God.

19 Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Rabbiga uma aad adeegi kartaan; waayo, isagu waa Ilaah quduus ah; oo waa Ilaah masayr ah, oo isagu idinkama cafiyi doono xadgudubkiinna iyo dembiyadiinna toona.

Then said Joshua unto the people—Ye cannot serve Yahweh, for, a holy God, he is, a jealous GOD, he is, he will not forgive your transgression, nor your sins.

20 Oo markuu wax wanaagsan idiin sameeyo dabadeed, haddaad Rabbiga ka tagtaan, oo aad u adeegtaan ilaahyo qalaad, de markaas wuu soo jeesan doonaa oo wax xun buu idinku samayn doonaa, oo wuu idin baabbi'in doonaa.

When ye forsake Yahweh, and serve the gods of a stranger, then will he turn, and inflict on you calamity, and consume you, after that he hath dealt well with you.

21 Markaasaa dadkii waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Maya; laakiinse annagu Rabbiga waannu u adeegi doonnaa.

But the people said unto Joshua, —Nay! but, Yahweh, will we serve.

22 Yashuucana wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Idinka qudhiinnaa isku marag furaya inaad doorateen Rabbiga oo aad isaga u adeegaysaan. Kolkaasay yidhaahdeen, Annagaa ka marag ah.

Then said Joshua unto the people—Witnesses, are ye, against yourselves, that, ye yourselves, have chosen you Yahweh, to serve him. And they said: Witnesses!

23 Kolkaasuu yidhi, Haddaba iska fogeeya ilaahyada qalaad oo idinku dhex jira, oo qalbigiinna u jeediya Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil.

Now, therefore, put ye away the gods of the stranger, that are in your midst, —and incline your heart unto Yahweh, God of Israel.

24 Markaasaa dadkii waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu u adeegi doonnaa Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ah, oo weliba codkiisaannu maqli doonnaa.

And the people said unto Joshua, —Yahweh our God, will we serve, and, unto his voice, will we hearken.

25 Taas daraaddeed maalintaas ayaa Yashuuca dadkii axdi la dhigtay, oo Shekem buu ugu dejiyey qaynuun iyo amar.

So then Joshua solemnised a covenant for the people, on that day, —and set for them a statute and a regulation, in Shechem.

26 Markaasaa Yashuuca erayadan ku qoray kitaabkii sharcigii Ilaah; oo dhagax weyn buu qaaday, oo wuxuu hoos qotonshay geedkii ku ag yiil taambuugga quduuskaa oo Rabbiga.

And Joshua wrote these words in the scroll of the law of God, —and took a great stone, and set it up there, under the oak that was by the sanctuary of Yahweh.

27 Yashuucana wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Bal ogaada, dhagaxanaa inagu marag furi doonee; waayo, wuxuu maqlay erayadii Rabbiga oo uu inagula hadlay oo dhan; sidaas daraaddeed wuxuu idinku noqon doonaa marag, si aydnaan Ilaahiinna u inkirin.

And Joshua said unto all the people—Lo! this stone, shall serve against us as a witness, for, it, hath heard all the sayings of Yahweh, which he hath spoken with us, —so shall it serve against you as a witness, lest ye should act deceptively against your God.

28 Markaasaa Yashuuca dadkii kala diray oo nin waluba wuxuu tegey dalkii dhaxalkiisa ahaa.

And Joshua sent the people away, every man unto his inheritance.

29 Oo taas dabadeed addoonkii Rabbiga oo ahaa Yashuuca ina Nuun ayaa dhintay, isagoo jira boqol iyo toban sannadood.

And it came to pass, after these things, that Joshua son of Nun, servant of Yahweh, died, being a hundred and ten years old.

30 Oo waxay ku aaseen dalkii uu dhaxalka u helay oo ahaa Timnad Serah oo ku tiil dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, oo xagga woqooyi ka xigta buurta Gacash.

And they buried him within the bounds of his own inheritance, in Timnath-serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of Mount Gaash.

31 Reer binu Israa'iilna Rabbigay u adeegi jireen waagii Yashuuca oo dhan, iyo waagii odayaashii ka nolol dambeeyey Yashuuca oo dhan, kuwaas oo ogaa kulli shuqulkii Rabbigu u sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil.

So then Israel served Yahweh all the days of Joshua, —and all the days of the elders who prolonged their days after Joshua, and who had known all the work of Yahweh, which he had wrought for Israel.

32 Oo lafihii Yuusuf oo reer binu Israa'iil ka soo saareen Masar, waxay ku aaseen Shekem taasoo ah dhulkii yaraa oo Yacquub ka iibsaday reer Xamoor oo ahaa Shekem aabbihiis oo uu ka siistay boqol gogo' oo lacag ah; oo meeshaasu waxay dhaxal u noqotay reer Yuusuf.

And, the bones of Joseph—which the sons of Israel had brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in the portion of field, which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for a hundred pieces of money, —and they belonged unto the sons of Joseph, as an inheritance.

33 Oo Elecaasaar ina Haaruunna wuu dhintay, oo waxay isna ku aaseen buurtii wiilkiisa Fiinexaas oo isaga laga siiyey dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim.

And, Eleazar son of Aaron, died, —and they buried him in the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given to him, in the hill country of Ephraim.
