Yashuuca 4

1 Oo markii quruuntii oo dhammu ay ka wada gudubtay Webi Urdun, ayaa Rabbigu Yashuuca la hadlay, oo ku yidhi,

And when the people had completely passed over Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,

2 Dadka kala bax laba iyo toban nin, qabiil walba nin,

Take men from the people, one of each tribe,

3 oo waxaad iyaga ku amartaa oo ku tidhaahdaa, Webi Urdun dhexdiisa oo ah meeshii cagaha wadaaddadu istaageen, waxaad ka qaaddaan laba iyo toban dhagax, oo waxaad ula gudubtaan dhanka kale, oo waxaad dhigtaan meeshaad caawa ku dhaxaysaan.

and charge them; and ye shall take out of the midst of Jordan twelve fit stones, and having carried them across together with yourselves, place them in your camp, where ye shall encamp for the night.

4 Markaasaa Yashuuca u yeedhay laba iyo tobankii nin, oo uu ka diyaariyey reer binu Israa'iil, oo qabiil walbana nin buu ka soo soocay.

And Joshua having called twelve men of distinction among the children of Israel, one of each tribe,

5 Oo Yashuuca wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Ka hor gudba sanduuqa Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah, oo waxaad tagtaan Webi Urdun dhexdiisa, oo midkiin waluba dhagax garabka ha ku qaado, inta reer binu Israa'iil qabiilooyinkooda tiradoodu tahay,

said to them, Advance before me in the presence of the Lord into the midst of Jordan, and each having taken up a stone from thence, let him carry it on his shoulders, according to the number of the twelve tribes of Israel:

6 in taasu idiin ahaato calaamo idin dhex taal, oo wakhtiga soo socda markii carruurtiinnu idin weyddiiyaan, oo idinku yidhaahdaan, Maxaad ula jeeddaan dhagaxyadan?

that these may be to you continually for an appointed sign, that when thy son asks thee in future, saying, What are these stones to us?

7 Waxaad ku odhan doontaan, Sababtu waxa weeye, biyihii Webi Urdun baa ku hor kala go'ay sanduuqa axdiga Ilaah; oo markii uu ka gudbayay Webi Urdun ayay biyihii Webi Urdun kala go'een; oo dhagaxyadanu xusuus bay u ahaan doonaan reer binu Israa'iil weligood.

then thou mayest explain to thy son, saying, The river Jordan was dried up from before the ark of the covenant of the Lord of the whole earth, when it passed it: and these stones shall be for a memorial for you for the children of Israel for ever.

8 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay yeeleen sidii Yashuuca ku amray, oo waxay Webi Urdun dhexdiisa ka qaadeen laba iyo toban dhagax, oo ah intii qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil tiradoodu ahayd sidii Rabbigu u sheegay Yashuuca, oo waxay u gudbiyeen meeshii ay ku dhaxeen, oo halkaasay dhigeen.

And the children of Israel did so, as the Lord commanded Joshua; and they took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, (as the Lord commanded Joshua, when the children of Israel had completely passed over, ) and carried these stones with them into the camp, and laid them down there.

9 Oo Yashuuca wuxuu laba iyo toban dhagax qotomiyey Webi Urdun dhexdiisa, taasoo ah meeshii wadaaddada sida sanduuqa axdiga ay cagahoodu istaageen; oo ilaa maantadan weli meeshii bay jiraan.

And Joshua set also other twelve stones in Jordan itself, in the place that was under the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord; and there they are to this day.

10 Waayo, wadaaddadii siday sanduuqa waxay istaageen Webi Urdun dhexdiisa, ilaa ay dhammaadeen wax waluba wixii Rabbigu ku amray Yashuuca inuu dadka kula hadlo, sidii wixii Muuse ku amray Yashuuca oo dhan, oo dadkiina way degdegeen oo gudbeen.

And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant stood in Jordan, until Joshua [had] finished all that the Lord commanded him to report to the people; and the people hasted and passed over.

11 Oo waxaa dhacday markii ay dadkii oo dhammu wada gudbeen inuu sanduuqii Rabbiguna gudbay, isaga iyo wadaaddadiiba, dadkii oo arka.

And it came to pass when all the people had passed over, that the ark of the covenant of the Lord passed over, and the stones before them.

12 Oo reer Ruubeen, iyo reer Gaad, iyo qabiilkii reer Manaseh badhkiis ayaa reer binu Israa'iil ka hor gudbay, iyagoo hub leh, sidii Muuse kula hadlay iyaga.

And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses commanded them.

13 Qiyaas afar kun oo nin oo hub leh oo dagaal diyaar u ah ayaa Rabbiga hortiisa ka gudubtay oo dagaal ugu kacday xagga bannaanka Yerixoo.

Forty thousand armed for battle went over before the Lord to war, to the city of Jericho.

14 Oo maalintaas Rabbigu wuxuu Yashuuca ku weyneeyey reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan hortooda; oo cimrigiisii oo dhanba way ka cabsadeen isagii, sidii ay Muuse uga baqi jireen oo kale.

In that day the Lord magnified Joshua before all the people of Israel; and they feared him, as [they did] Moses, as long as he lived.

15 Markaasaa Rabbigu Yashuuca la hadlay, oo ku yidhi,

And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,

16 Wadaaddada sanduuqa maragga sida waxaad ku amartaa inay ka soo baxaan Webi Urdun.

Charge the priests that bear the ark of the covenant of the testimony of the Lord, to go up out of Jordan.

17 Oo sidaas daraaddeed Yashuuca baa amray wadaaddadii, oo ku yidhi, Ka soo baxa Webi Urdun.

And Joshua charged the priests, saying, Go up out of Jordan.

18 Oo markii wadaaddadii siday sanduuqa axdigii Rabbiga ay ka soo dhex bexeen Webi Urdun, oo ay cagaha u qaadeen dhul engegan, ayay biyihii Webi Urdun meeshoodii ku soo noqdeen, oo ay qararkiisii oo dhan ka daateen sidii markii hore.

And it came to pass when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord were gone up out of Jordan, and set their feet upon the land, [that] the water of Jordan returned impetuously to its place, and went as before over all its banks.

19 Oo dadku waxay Webi Urdun ka soo bexeen maalintii tobnaad oo bishii kowaad, oo waxay degeen Gilgaal oo xagga bari ka xigta Yerixoo.

And the people went up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month; and the children of Israel encamped in Galgala in the region eastward from Jericho.

20 Oo laba iyo tobankii dhagax oo ay ka soo qaadeen Webi Urdun dhexdiisa ayuu Yashuuca qotomiyey Gilgaal.

And Joshua set these twelve stones which he took out of Jordan, in Galgala,

21 Markaasuu ka hadlay reer binu Israa'iil, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Wakhtiga soo socda markii carruurtiinnu aabbayaashood weyddiiyaan, oo yidhaahdaan, Maxaad ula jeeddaan dhagaxyadan?

saying, When your sons ask you, saying, What are these stones?

22 Waxaad carruurtiinna ogeysiisaan, oo ku tidhaahdaan, Reer binu Israa'iil Webigan Urdun waxay kaga soo gudbeen dhul engegan.

Tell your sons, that Israel went over this Jordan on dry land,

23 Waayo, Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah baa hortiinna ka engejiyey biyihii Webi Urdun, ilaa aad ka soo gudubteen, sidii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu u galay Badda Cas oo kale, tii uu hortayada ka engejiyey ilaa aannu ka gudubnay,

when the Lord our God had dried up the water of Jordan from before them, until they had passed over; as the Lord our God did to the Red Sea, which the Lord our God dried up from before us, until we passed over.

24 si ay dadka dhulka jooga oo dhammu u ogaadaan gacanta Rabbigu inay xoog badan tahay; oo ay weligood uga cabsadaan Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah.

That all the nations of the earth might know, that the power of the Lord is mighty, and that ye might worship the Lord our God in every work.
