< Yashuuca 5 >

1 Oo boqorradii reer Amor oo dhan oo joogay Webi Urdun xaggiisa shishe oo galbeed, iyo boqorradii reer Kancaan oo dhan oo badda dhinaceeda degganaa, markay maqleen sida Rabbigu biyihii Webi Urdun u engejiyey reer binu Israa'iil hortooda ilaa aannu soo wada gudubnay, ayay wada dhalaaleen, oo xoog dambena kuma jirin, reer binu Israa'iil aawadood.
Kwathi amakhosi ama-Amori ayebusa entshonalanga kweJodani lamakhosi wonke amaKhenani ayebusa ezigcawini ezisekela ulwandle esizwa ukuthi uThixo wayomise njani uJodani phambi kwabako-Israyeli baze bachapha, inhliziyo zawo zathuthumela aswela izibindi zokumelana labako-Israyeli.
2 Oo markaasuu Rabbigu wuxuu Yashuuca ku yidhi, Waxaad samaysaa mindiyo dhagax adag ah, oo reer binu Israa'iil haddana ku gud mar labaad.
Ngalesosikhathi uThixo wathi kuJoshuwa, “Khanda izingqamu ezibukhali ubususoka abako-Israyeli njalo.”
3 Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu samaystay mindiyo dhagax adag ah, oo wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil ku guday meel la yidhi Buurta Buuryada.
Ngakho-ke uJoshuwa wakhanda izingqamu ezibukhali wasesoka abako-Israyeli eGibhiya Haralothi.
4 Oo Yashuuca sababtii uu u gudayna waxay ahayd sidan: dadkii dalkii Masar ka soo baxay oo dhammu, intii labka ahayd, xataa raggii dagaalyahannada ahaa oo dhammuba waxay ku dhinteen cidlada intay jidka ku jireen markay Masar ka soo bexeen dabadeed.
Lokhu wakwenzela ukuthi: Bonke labo abaphuma eGibhithe, wonke amadoda ayengabuthelwa empini afela enkangala esemangweni wokusuka eGibhithe.
5 Oo dadkii soo baxay oo dhammu way gudnaayeen; laakiinse kulli dadkii cidlada ku dhashay intay jidka ku jireen markay Masar ka soo bexeen dabadeed, kuwaas lama gudin.
Bonke abantu abaphumayo babesokiwe, kodwa bonke abantu ababezalelwe enkangala phakathi kohambo lokusuka eGibhithe babengasokwanga.
6 Waayo, reer binu Israa'iil waxay cidlada dhex socdeen afartan sannadood, ilaa quruuntii oo dhan ay ka dhammaadeen xataa raggii dagaalyahannada ahaa oo Masar ka soo baxay oo dhammu, waayo, waxay maqli waayeen codkii Rabbiga; kuwaas oo Rabbigu ugu dhaartay inaanu u oggolaanayn inay arkaan dalkii Rabbigu ugu dhaartay awowayaashood inuu annagana siin doono, dalkaas oo ah dal caano iyo malab la barwaaqaysan.
Abako-Israyeli babezulazule enkangala okweminyaka engamatshumi amane, amadoda wonke ayefanele ukubuthelwa empini ngesikhathi esuka eGibhithe aze afa, njengoba engazange amlalele uThixo. Ngoba uThixo wayefunge waqinisa kubo wathi ayengasoze alibone ilizwe ayelithembise okhokho babo ukuthi bazalinikwa, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju.
7 Oo carruurtoodii oo uu Rabbigu meeshoodii ka kiciyey, ayaa Yashuuca guday; maxaa yeelay, waxay ahaayeen buuryoqab, waayo, jidka laguma soo gudin.
Ngakho wondla amadodana ezikhundleni zawo, njalo yiwo la asokwa nguJoshuwa. Ayelokhu engakasokwa ngoba kungazange kube lethuba lokubasoka endleleni.
8 Oo markay quruuntii oo dhan wada gudeen, waxay iska joogeen meelahoodii ahaa xerada dhexdeeda ilaa ay ka bogsadeen.
Kwathi isizwe sonke sesisokiwe, sahlala ezihonqweni baze baphola.
9 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu Yashuuca ku yidhi, Maantaan idinka rogay ceebtii Masar, oo sidaas daraaddeed meeshaas ilaa maantadan la joogo waxaa lagu magacaabaa Gilgaal.
UThixo wasesithi kuJoshuwa, “Lamuhla ngisuse ihlazo laseGibhithe kini.” Yikho indawo leyo lokhu ibizwa ngokuthi yiGiligali kuze kube lamhlanje.
10 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay degeen Gilgaal; oo bisha maalinteedii afar iyo tobnaad markay fiidkii ahayd ayay bannaankii Yerixoo ku sameeyeen Iiddii Kormaridda.
Kusihlwa ngelanga letshumi lane kuleyo nyanga, bathi belokhu besamise izihonqo zabo eGiligali emagcekeni eJerikho, abako-Israyeli bagcina iPhasika.
11 Oo maalintii Iidda Kormaridda ka dambaysay waxay cuneen hadhuudhkii dalkii ka baxay, kaas oo ahaa kibis aan khamiir lahayn, iyo hadhuudh la dubay, maalintaas qudheeda.
Ngokusa olwalandela usuku lwePhasika badla okunye kwesivuno sabo ababekuvunile: isinkwa esingelamvubelo lamabele akhanzingiweyo.
12 Oo maannadiina maalintii dambe ayay ka joogsatay, markay cuneen hadhuudhkii dalkii ka baxay dabadeed, oo reer binu Israa'iilna ma ay helin maanna dambe, laakiinse sannaddaas waxay cuneen midhihii dalkii Kancaan ka baxay.
Imana yema ukukhithika ngelanga elalandela lelo abadla ngalo ukudla okwakuvela emhlabathini; ngakho kwakungasela mana yabako-Israyeli, kodwa ngalowomnyaka badla okwelizwe leKhenani.
13 Oo markii Yashuuca joogay Yerixoo agteeda ayuu indhihiisa kor u taagay oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay nin isaga ka soo hor jeeda oo seeftiisii oo gal la' gacanta ku haysta. Markaasaa Yashuuca intuu u tegey ku yidhi, War ma annagaad nala gees tahay mise colkayagaad la gees tahay?
Kwathi uJoshuwa esesondele eJerikho, wakhangela wabona indoda eyayimi phambi kwakhe ilomhedla esandleni sayo, uJoshuwa wasondela kuyo wayibuza wathi “Ungowakithi kumbe ungowezitha zethu?”
14 Markaasuu isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Maya; laakiinse waxaan haatan u imid inaan madax u ahaado ciidanka Ilaah. Markaasaa Yashuuca wejigiisii dhulka saaray, wuuna sujuuday, oo wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, maxaad anoo addoonkaaga ah igu odhan lahayd?
Yaphendula yathi “Angikho ndawo, kodwa njengomlawuli webutho likaThixo sengifikile.” UJoshuwa wathi mbo phansi ngobuso edumisa waseyibuza esithi, “Kambe iNkosi yami ilombiko bani wenceku yayo?”
15 Markaasaa kii ciidanka Rabbiga madax u ahaa wuxuu Yashuuca ku yidhi, Kabtaada iska siib, waayo, meeshaad ku taagan tahay waa quduus. Oo Yashuucana sidaasuu yeelay.
Umlawuli wamabutho kaThixo waphendula wathi, “Khulula izicathulo zakho ngoba indawo omi kuyo ingcwele.” UJoshuwa wenza njalo.
