Xaakinnada 18
1 Waagaas reer binu Israa'iil boqor ma ay lahayn; oo qabiilkii reer Daan waxay wakhtigaas doonayeen dal dhaxal u ah oo ay degaan; waayo, ilaa maalintaas dhaxal kama ay helin qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil.
In those days there was no king in Israel; and in those days the tribe of Dan sought for itself an inheritance to inhabit, because no inheritance had fallen to it until that day in the midst of the tribes of the children of Israel.
2 Markaasay reer Daan qabiilkoodii oo dhan ka direen shan nin oo xoog leh, oo waxay ka direen Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool, inay dalka soo basaasaan oo ay soo baadhaan; oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Taga oo dalka soo baadha. Markaasay yimaadeen gurigii Miikaah oo ku yiil dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, oo meeshaasay u hoydeen.
And the sons of Dan sent from their families five men of valour, from Saraa and from Esthaol, to spy out the land and to search it; and they said to them, Go and search out the land. And they came as far as the mount of Ephraim to the house of Michaias and they lodged there,
3 Oo markay gurigii Miikaah ag joogeen ayay garteen codkii ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo reer Laawi. Markaasay halkaas ku leexdeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War yaa halkan ku keenay? Oo maxaad ka samaysaa meeshan? Maxaadse ku haysataa halkan?
in the house of Michaias, and they recognised the voice of the young man the Levite, and turned in thither; and said to him, Who brought thee in hither? and what doest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?
4 Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Sidan iyo sidaas ayaa Miikaah ii sameeyey, wuuna i kiraystay, oo anna waxaan noqday wadaadkiisii.
And he said to them, Thus and thus did Michaias to me, and he hired me, and I became his priest.
5 Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye, bal Ilaah talo noo weyddii, inaannu ogaanno bal inaannu jidkayaga aan ku soconno ku soo liibaanayno iyo in kale.
And they said to him, Enquire now of God, and we shall know whether our way will prosper, on which we are going.
6 Markaasuu wadaadkii ku yidhi, Nabad ku taga; waayo, jidka aad ku socotaan wuxuu hor yaallaa Rabbiga.
And the priest said to them, Go in peace; your way in which ye go, [is] before the Lord.
7 Markaasay shantii nin tageen, oo yimaadeen Layish oo waxay arkeen dadkii halkaa joogay oo ammaan ku deggan siday reer Siidoon u xasilloonaayeen oo ammaan u ahaayeen oo kale; waayo, dalka laguma arag wax amar haysta, oo ka xishoodsiinaya, oo reer Siidoonna way ka fogaayeen, oo ninnaba lama ay macaamiloon jirin.
And the five men went on, and came to Laisa; and they saw the people in the midst of it dwelling securely, at ease as [is] the manner of the Sidonians, and there is no one perverting or shaming a matter in the land, no heir extorting treasures; and they are far from the Sidonians, and they have no intercourse with any one.
8 Markaasay nimankii walaalahood ugu yimaadeen Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool. Kolkaasaa walaalahood waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War bal warrama.
And the five men came to their brethren to Saraa and Esthaol, and said to their brethren, Why sit ye here [idle]?
9 Oo iyana waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War kaca oo ina keena aynu ku duullee, waayo, waannu soo aragnay dalkii, oo aad buu u wanaagsan yahay. Miyaad iska aamusnaanaysaan? War ha ka caajisina inaad tagtaan oo aad dalka gashaan oo dhaxashaan.
And they said, Arise, and let us go up against them, for we have seen the land, and, behold, [it is] very good, yet ye are still: delay not to go, an to enter in to possess the land.
10 Markaad tagtaan waxaad u tegi doontaan dad ammaan ah, oo dalkuna waa ballaadhan yahay; waayo, Ilaah gacantuu idiin geliyey, oo waa meel aan waxba looga baahnayn waxa dhulka laga helo oo dhan.
And whensoever ye shall go, ye shall come in upon a people secure, and the land [is] extensive, for God has given it into your hand; a place where there is no want of anything that the earth affords.
11 Markaas reer Daan waxaa halkaas kaga bixitimay oo Sorcaah iyo Eshtaa'ool ka tegey lix boqol oo nin oo hubkii dagaalka xidhan.
And there departed thence of the families of Dan, from Saraa and from Esthaol, six hundred men, girded with weapons of war.
12 Markaasay baxeen oo degeen Qiryad Yecaariim oo ku taal Yahuudah; sidaas daraaddeed meeshaas waxay u bixiyeen Maxaneh Daan, oo ilaa maanta waa la yidhaahdaa; oo waxay ka dambaysaa Qiryad Yecaariim.
And they went up, and encamped in Cariathiarim in Juda; therefore it was called in that place the camp of Dan, until this day: behold, [it is] behind Cariathiarim.
13 Oo halkaasna way ka tageen oo waxay u kaceen dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim, markaasay yimaadeen gurigii Miikaah.
And they went on thence to the mount of Ephraim, and came to the house of Michaias.
14 Kolkaasaa shantii nin oo waddanka Layish soo basaastay waxay ku jawaabeen oo walaalahood ku yidhaahdeen, War ma og tihiin inay guryahan ku jiraan eefod iyo teraafiim, iyo sanam xardhan iyo sanam la shubay? Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ka fiirsada waxaad samayn lahaydeen.
And the five men who went to spy out the land of Laisa answered, and said to their brethren, Ye know that there is in this place an ephod, and theraphin, and a graven and a molten image; and now consider what ye shall do.
15 Oo intay halkaas ku soo leexdeen ayay yimaadeen gurigii ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo reer Laawi, kaasoo ahaa gurigii Miikaah, wayna nabdaadiyeen.
And they turned aside there, and went into the house of the young man, the Levite, [even] into the house of Michaias, and asked him how he was.
16 Markaasay lixdii boqol oo nin ee hubka dagaalka xidhnayd ee ahaa reer Daan ag istaageen iridda laga soo galo.
And the six hundred men of the sons of Dan who were girded with their weapons of war stood by the door of the gate.
17 Markaasay shantii nin oo dalka soo basaastay yimaadeen oo gudaha galeen, oo waxay soo qaateen sanamkii xardhanaa, iyo eefodkii, iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii la shubay; oo wadaadkiina wuxuu iridda laga soo galo isla taagay lixdii boqol oo nin ee xidhnayd hubka dagaalka.
And the five men who went to spy out the land went up, and entered into the house of Michaias, and the priest stood.
18 Oo kuwaasu markay galeen gurigii Miikaah, oo ay soo qaateen sanamkii xardhanaa, iyo eefodkii, iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii la shubay, ayuu wadaadkii ku yidhi, War maxaad samaynaysaan?
And they took the graven image, and the ephod, and the theraphin, and the molten image; and the priest said to them, What are ye doing?
19 Oo iyana waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Iska aamus, oo gacanta afka saar, ee haddaba na soo raac, oo noo noqo aabbe iyo wadaad; bal kee baa kuu roon, inaad nin keliya reerkiis wadaad u ahaatid, iyo inaad wadaad u ahaatid qabiil iyo jilib reer binu Israa'iil ka mid ah?
And they said to him, Be silent, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and come with us, and be to us a father and a priest: [is it] better for thee to be the priest of the house of one man, or to be the priest of a tribe and house for a family of Israel?
20 Markaasuu wadaadkii qalbiga ka farxay, oo qaaday eefodkii iyo teraafiimkii, iyo sanamkii xardhanaa, oo wuxuu dhex galay dadka.
And the heart of the priest was glad, and he took the ephod, and the theraphin, and the graven image, and the molten image, and went in the midst of the people.
21 Markaasay noqdeen oo tageen, oo waxay iska horraysiiyeen dhallaankii, iyo xoolihii iyo alaabtii.
So they turned and departed, and put their children and their property and their baggage before them.
22 Oo markay ka fogaadeen gurigii Miikaah ayaa raggii joogay guryihii u dhowaa gurigii Miikaah soo wada ururay, oo waxay gaadheen reer Daan.
They went some distance from the house of Michaias, and, behold, Michaias and the men in the houses near Michaias' house, cried out, and overtook the children of Dan.
23 Oo waxay u dhawaaqeen reer Daan. Iyana intay ku soo jeesteen ayay Miikaah ku yidhaahdeen, War maxaa kaa qaylisiinaya oo aad guutada caynkan ah u soo kaxaysatay?
And the children of Dan turned their face, and said to Michaias, What is the matter with thee that thou hast cried out?
24 Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaad iga qaadateen ilaahyadaydii aan sameeyey, iyo wadaadkaygii, oo waad tagteen, haddaba maxaan kaloo haystaa? Haddaba sidee baad ii leedihiin, War maxaa kaa qaylisiinaya?
And Michaias said, Because ye have taken my graven image which I made, and my priest, and are gone; and what have I remaining? and what [is] this [that] ye say to me, Why criest thou?
25 Markaasay reer Daan ku yidhaahdeen, War hoy, codkaaga yaan dhexdayada laga maqlin, waaba intaasoo ay ragga cadhaysanu ku dilaan, oo aad weydaa naftaada iyo nafta reerkaagaba.
And the children of Dan said to him, Let not thy voice be heard with us, lest angry men run upon thee, and take away thy life, and the lives of thy house.
26 Markaasay reer Daan iska tageen. Oo Miikaahna markuu arkay inay aad uga xoog badan yihiin ayuu iska noqday oo gurigiisii tegey.
And the children of Dan went their way; and Michaias saw that they were stronger than himself, and he returned to his house.
27 Oo iyana waxay la tageen wixii Miikaah sameeyey, iyo wadaadkiisii, markaasay yimaadeen Layish, iyo dad xasilloon oo ammaan u fadhiya, oo waxay ku laayeen seef; oo magaaladiina dab bay ku gubeen.
And the children of Dan took what Michaias had made, and the priest that he had, and they came to Laisa, to a people quiet and secure; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and burnt the city with fire.
28 Oo badbaadiyena ma ay lahayn, maxaa yeelay, Siidoon way ka fogayd, oo ninnaba lama ay macaamiloon jirin; oo waxay ku tiil dooxada u dhow Beytrexob. Oo iyana intay magaaladii dhiseen ayay degeen.
And there was no deliverer, because [the city] is far from the Sidonians, and they have no intercourse with men, and it [is] in the valley of the house of Raab; and they built the city, and dwelt in it.
29 Oo magaaladii magaceediina waxay u bixiyeen Daan, oo waxay ku sammiyeen magicii awowgood Daan, kii u dhashay Israa'iil; habase yeeshee magaalada magaceedu wuxuu markii hore ahaa Layish.
And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel; and the name of the city was Ulamais before.
30 Markaasay reer Daan qotonsadeen sanamkii xardhanaa; oo Yoonaataan oo ahaa ina Gershoom oo ina Muuse ahaa iyo wiilashiisiiba waxay wadaaddo u ahaayeen qabiilkii reer Daan ilaa wakhtigii dalka la qabsaday.
And the children of Dan set up the graven image for themselves; and Jonathan son of Gerson son of Manasse, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan till the time of the carrying away of the nation.
31 Oo waxay qotonsadeen sanamkii xardhanaa oo Miikaah sameeyey, oo intii guriga Ilaah Shiiloh ku yiil oo dhan ayuu oolli jiray.
And they set up for themselves the graven image which Michaias made, all the days that the house of God was in Selom; and it was so in those days [that] there was no king in Israel.
