Yashuuca 9
1 Oo Webi Urdun shishadiisa, iyo dhulka buuraha, iyo dhulka dooxada ah, iyo badda weyn xeebteeda oo ka horraysa Lubnaan boqorradii degganaa oo dhammu markay maqleen, waxaa dhacday inay reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Kancaan, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuusba
When all the kings who were beyond the Jordan, in the hill country, and in the lowland, and on all the shore of the great sea in front of Lebanon, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, heard of it
2 iswada urursadeen inay isku si ula diriraan Yashuuca iyo reer binu Israa'iil.
they gathered themselves together to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.
3 Laakiinse dadkii Gibecoon degganaa markay maqleen wixii Yashuuca ku sameeyey Yerixoo iyo Aacii,
But when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and to Ai,
4 iyana markaasay khiyaano sameeyeen, oo intay tageen bay iska dhigeen sidii iyagoo ah wakiillo dalal kale, oo waxay dameerradoodii ku qaateen joonyado gaboobay, iyo sibraarro khamri oo khamri oo gaboobay oo dildillaacay oo la xidhxidhay.
they also resorted to a ruse, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks on their donkeys, and old, torn-up and bound up wineskins,
5 Oo waxay gashadeen kabo duugoobay oo la karkaray, oo waxay xidheen dhar gaboobay, oo kibistii ay soo sahaydeen oo dhammuna waxay ahayd mid engegan oo caaryaysatay.
and old and patched sandals on their feet, and wore old garments. All the bread of their food supply was dry and moldy.
6 Oo waxay u tageen Yashuuca oo jooga xeradii ku tiil Gilgaal, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen isagii iyo raggii reer binu Israa'iilba, Annagu waxaannu ka nimid dal fog; haddaba sidaas daraaddeed axdi nala dhigta.
They went to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, “We have come from a far country. Now therefore make a covenant with us.”
7 Oo raggii reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku yidhaahdeen kuwii reer Xiwi, War mindhaa annagaad na dhex deggan tihiin, oo haddaba sidee baannu axdi idiinla dhiganaynaa?
The men of Israel said to the Hivites, “What if you live among us? How could we make a covenant with you?”
8 Oo waxay Yashuuca ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu waxaannu nahay addoommadaada. Markaasaa Yashuuca wuxuu ku yidhi, Yaad tihiin? Oo xaggee baad ka timaadeen?
They said to Joshua, “We are your servants.” Joshua said to them, “Who are you? Where do you come from?”
9 Kolkaasay waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Magaca Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah aawadiis ayaannu annagoo addoommadaada ah waddan aad u fog uga nimid, waayo, waxaannu maqalnay warkiisii, iyo kulli wixii uu Masar ku dhex sameeyey oo dhan,
They said to him, “Your servants have come from a very far country because of the name of the LORD your God; for we have heard of his fame, all that he did in Egypt,
10 iyo kulli wixii uu ku sameeyey labadii boqor oo reer Amor oo ka shisheeyey Webi Urdun, kuwaas oo ahaa Siixon oo boqor ka ahaa Xeshboon, iyo Coog oo boqor ka ahaa Baashaan, oo degganaa Cashtarod.
and all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan, who was at Ashtaroth.
11 Oo odayaashayadii iyo dadkii waddankayaga degganaa oo dhammu waxay nagu soo yidhaahdeen, Sodcaalka aawadiis sahay u qaata, oo taga si aad ula kulantaan iyaga, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Annagu waxaannu nahay addoommadiinna, ee haddaba axdi nala dhigta.
Our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spoke to us, saying, ‘Take supplies in your hand for the journey, and go to meet them. Tell them, “We are your servants. Now make a covenant with us.”’
12 Oo kibistan iyadoo kulul baan guryahayagii sahay uga soo qaadannay maalintii aan idiin soo kacnay; laakiinse bal hadda eega, way engegtay, wayna caaryaysatay:
This our bread we took hot for our supplies out of our houses on the day we went out to go to you; but now, behold, it is dry, and has become moldy.
13 oo sibraarradan khamriga oo aannu soo buuxsannay way cusbaayeen, oo bal eega haatan waa dildillaacsan yihiin, oo dharkayaga iyo kabahayagu waxay ku duugoobeen sodcaalkii aad u dheeraa aawadiis.
These wineskins, which we filled, were new; and behold, they are torn. These our garments and our sandals have become old because of the very long journey.”
14 Oo markaasay nimankii wax ka qaateen sahaydoodii, oo Rabbigana talo ma ay weyddiisan.
The men sampled their provisions, and didn’t ask counsel from the LORD’s mouth.
15 Oo Yashuucana wuu la nabday iyagii, oo axdina wuu la dhigtay inuu naftooda u daayo; oo amiirradii shirkuna way u dhaarteen iyagii.
Joshua made peace with them, and made a covenant with them, to let them live. The princes of the congregation swore to them.
16 Oo markay axdigii la dhigteen saddex maalmood dabadeed waxay maqleen inay yihiin deriskooda, oo ay dhexdooda deggan yihiin.
At the end of three days after they had made a covenant with them, they heard that they were their neighbors, and that they lived among them.
17 Oo reer binu Israa'iil way sodcaaleen, oo maalintii saddexaad waxay yimaadeen magaalooyinkoodii. Oo magaalooyinkooduna waxay ahaayeen Gibecoon, iyo Kefiiraah, iyo Bi'irod, iyo Qiryad Yecaariim.
The children of Israel traveled and came to their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, Chephirah, Beeroth, and Kiriath Jearim.
18 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna ma ay layn, waayo, amiirradii shirku waxay iyagii ugu dhaarteen Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil. Oo markaasaa shirkii oo dhammu waxay ka gunuunaceen amiirradii.
The children of Israel didn’t strike them, because the princes of the congregation had sworn to them by the LORD, the God of Israel. All the congregation murmured against the princes.
19 Laakiinse amiirradii oo dhammu waxay shirkii oo dhan ku yidhaahdeen, Waxaannu iyaga ugu dhaarannay Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil; oo haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waa inaynaan taaban iyaga.
But all the princes said to all the congregation, “We have sworn to them by the LORD, the God of Israel. Now therefore we may not touch them.
20 Oo sidan baan u yeelaynaa, oo naftooda ayaan u daynaynaa waaba intaas oo dhaartii aannu ugu dhaarannay daraaddeed cadho inoogu dhacdaaye.
We will do this to them, and let them live; lest wrath be on us, because of the oath which we swore to them.”
21 Oo amiirradii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Naftooda u daaya, ha noolaadeene. Sidaas daraaddeed waxay shirkii oo dhan u noqdeen kuwo xaabada gura oo biyaha dhaansha, sidii amiirradii kula hadleen iyagii.
The princes said to them, “Let them live.” So they became wood cutters and drawers of water for all the congregation, as the princes had spoken to them.
22 Markaasaa Yashuuca u yeedhay iyagii, oo intuu la hadlay buu ku yidhi, War maxaad noo khiyaanayseen oo noogu tidhaahdeen, Waannu idinka fog nahay, idinkoo na dhex deggan?
Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying, “Why have you deceived us, saying, ‘We are very far from you,’ when you live among us?
23 Sidaas daraaddeed waad habaaran tihiin, oo weligiin laydinka waayi maayo addoommo ah kuwa xaabada u gura, biyahana u dhaamiya guriga Ilaahayga.
Now therefore you are cursed, and some of you will never fail to be slaves, both wood cutters and drawers of water for the house of my God.”
24 Oo waxay Yashuuca ugu jawaabeen, Maxaa yeelay, hubaal waxaa annagoo addoommadaada ah lanoo sheegay sida Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu addoonkiisii Muuse ahaa ugu amray inuu idin siiyo dalka oo dhan, iyo in dadka dalka deggan oo dhan hortiinna laga baabbi'iyo; oo sidaas aawadeed naftayada aad baannu ugu cabsannay idinka daraaddiin, oo waxanna sidaas baannu u yeelnay.
They answered Joshua, and said, “Because your servants were certainly told how the LORD your God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you. Therefore we were very afraid for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.
25 Oo haddaba bal eeg gacantaadaannu ku jirnaa. Sidii kula wanaagsan oo kula qumman inaad nagu samaysid yeel.
Now, behold, we are in your hand. Do to us as it seems good and right to you to do.”
26 Oo sidaas buu u yeelay, oo ka samatabbixiyey gacantii reer binu Israa'iil inaanay dilin.
He did so to them, and delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, so that they didn’t kill them.
27 Oo maalintaasuu Yashuuca iyagii ka dhigay kuwo xaabada u gura, biyahana u dhaamiya shirka iyo meesha allabariga Rabbiga, taas oo ku taal meel alla meeshuu doortoba, ilaa maantadan la joogo.
That day Joshua made them wood cutters and drawers of water for the congregation and for the LORD’s altar to this day, in the place which he should choose.
