Xaakinnada 17
1 Oo waxaa jiray nin degganaa dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim; magiciisana waxaa la odhan jiray Miikaah.
There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
2 Oo isna wuxuu hooyadiis ku yidhi, Kun iyo boqolkii xabbadood oo lacagta ahaa ee lagaa qaaday, ee aad ku habaartamaysay ee aad igu dhego hadlaysay, lacagtii anigaa haya; oo anaa qaaday. Markaasay hooyadiis tidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, Rabbigu ha ku barakeeyo.
He said to his mother, “The eleven hundred pieces of silver that were taken from you, about which you uttered a curse, and also spoke it in my ears—behold, the silver is with me. I took it.” His mother said, “May the LORD bless my son!”
3 Oo kun iyo boqolkii xabbadood oo lacagta ahaa ayuu u soo celiyey hooyadiis, markaasay hooyadiis tidhi, Sida runta ah waxaan lacagta u soocay Rabbiga, oo gacantaydaan ka bixiyey wiilkayga aawadiis in laga sameeyo sanam xardhan iyo sanam la shubay; taas aawadeed adigaan kuu soo celin doonaa.
He restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother, then his mother said, “I most certainly dedicate the silver to the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a carved image and a molten image. Now therefore I will restore it to you.”
4 Oo markuu lacagtii hooyadiis u soo celiyey ayay hooyadiis qaadatay laba boqol oo xabbadood oo lacag ah, oo waxay u dhiibtay lacagtume, oo isna wuxuu ka sameeyey sanam xardhan iyo sanam la shubay; waxayna yaalleen gurigii Miikaah.
When he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to a silversmith, who made a carved image and a molten image out of it. It was in the house of Micah.
5 Oo ninkii Miikaah ahaana wuxuu lahaa guri ilaahyood, oo wuxuu sameeyey eefod iyo teraafiim, oo wuxuuna quduus ka dhigay wiilashiisii midkood, oo isna wuxuu u noqday wadaadkiisii.
The man Micah had a house of gods, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
6 Waagaasna reer binu Israa'iil boqor ma ay lahayn; oo nin walubana wuxuu samayn jiray wixii isaga la qumman.
In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did that which was right in his own eyes.
7 Oo waxaa jiray nin dhallinyaro ahaa oo ka soo baxay Beytlaxam Yahuudah oo reer Yahuudah ahaa, ee qoladiisu ahayd reer Laawi, oo halkaasuu degganaan jiray.
There was a young man out of Bethlehem Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he lived there.
8 Markaasuu ninkii ka baxay magaaladii ahayd Beytlaxam Yahuudah, inuu dego meel uu heli karo; oo intuu socday ayuu yimid gurigii Miikaah oo ku yiil dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim.
The man departed out of the city, out of Bethlehem Judah, to live where he could find a place, and he came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, as he traveled.
9 Markaasuu Miikaah ku yidhi isagii, Xaggee baad ka timid? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay reer Laawi, oo Beytlaxam Yahuudah ayaan ka imid, oo waxaan u socdaa inaan dego meel aan heli karo.
Micah said to him, “Where did you come from?” He said to him, “I am a Levite of Bethlehem Judah, and I am looking for a place to live.”
10 Markaasuu Miikaah ku yidhi isagii, Aniga ila joog, oo ii noqo aabbe iyo wadaad, anna sannaddiiba waxaan ku siinayaa toban xabbadood oo lacag ah, iyo isku joog dhar ah, iyo cuntadaada. Sidaas daraaddeed kii reer Laawi guduhuu galay.
Micah said to him, “Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver per year, a suit of clothing, and your food.” So the Levite went in.
11 Oo kii reer Laawina raalli buu ka ahaa inuu ninkii la joogo; oo ninkii dhallinyarada ahaana wuxuu Miikaah u ahaa sida wiilashiisa midkood oo kale.
The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons.
12 Markaasuu Miikaah quduus ka dhigay kii reer Laawi, oo ninkii dhallinyarada ahaana wuxuu Miikaah u noqday wadaadkiisii, oo gurigii Miikaah ayuu joogay.
Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
13 Markaasuu Miikaah yidhi, Haatan waan ogsoo nahay in Rabbigu wanaag ii samaynayo, maxaa yeelay, waxaa wadaad ii noqday nin reer Laawi ah.
Then Micah said, “Now I know that the LORD will do good to me, since I have a Levite as my priest.”
