Xaakinnada 21
1 Haddaba raggii reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku dhaarteen, iyagoo Misfaah jooga, oo waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Midkeenna waa inaanu gabadhiisa u guurin reer Benyaamiin.
And the men of Israel have sworn in Mizpeh, saying, “None of us gives his daughter to Benjamin for a wife.”
2 Markaasaa dadkii waxay yimaadeen Beytel, oo halkaasay Ilaah hor fadhiyeen ilaa fiidkii, oo intay codkoodii kor u qaadeen ayay aad u ooyeen.
And the people come to Beth-El, and sit there until the evening before God, and lift up their voice, and weep [with] a great weeping,
3 Oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Rabbiyow, Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iilow, maxaa waxanu uga dhex dhaceen reer binu Israa'iil in maanta qabiil ka dhimanaado reer binu Israa'iil?
and say, “Why, O YHWH, God of Israel, has this been in Israel—to be lacking one tribe from Israel today?”
4 Oo waxay noqotay maalintii dambe inay dadkii aroor hore kaceen oo ay halkaas ka dhiseen meel allabari, oo waxay bixiyeen qurbaanno la gubo iyo qurbaanno nabaadiino.
And it comes to pass on the next day, that the people rise early, and build an altar there, and cause burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend.
5 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay yidhaahdeen, Qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan yaa ka maqan oo aan iman shirka Ilaah? Waayo, waxay ku dhaarteen dhaar weyn oo ku saabsan kii aan Misfaah Rabbiga ugu soo shirin, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Hubaal kaas waa in la dilaa.
And the sons of Israel say, “Who [is] he that has not come up in the assembly to YHWH out of all the tribes of Israel?” For the great oath has been concerning him who has not come up to YHWH to Mizpeh, saying, “He is surely put to death.”
6 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay u qoomamoodeen walaalahood reer Benyaamiin, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Maanta waxaa jira qabiil ka go'ay reer binu Israa'iil.
And the sons of Israel sigh concerning their brother Benjamin, and say, “Today there has been one tribe cut off from Israel,
7 Sidee baynu inta ka hadhay naago ugu yeelnaa, maxaa yeelay, waxaynu ku dhaarannay Rabbiga inaynaan gabdhaheenna u guurin iyaga?
what do we do for them—for those who are left—for wives, since we have sworn by YHWH not to give to them from our daughters for wives?”
8 Oo waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Qabiilooyinka reer binu Israa'iil qabiilkee baan Rabbiga Misfaah ugu iman? Oo bal eeg, midnaba xeradii shirka ugama iman reer Yaabeesh Gilecaad oo dhan.
And they say, “Who is [that] one out of the tribes of Israel who has not come up to YHWH to Mizpeh?” And behold, none has come to the camp from Jabesh-Gilead—to the assembly.
9 Waayo, markii dadka la tiriyey bal eeg, halkaas ma joogin ka mid ah dadkii Yaabeesh Gilecaad degganaa.
And the people numbered themselves, and behold, there is no man from the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead.
10 Markaasaa shirkii wuxuu halkaas u diray laba iyo toban kun oo nin oo xoog leh, oo waxayna ku amreen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Taga oo seef ku laaya dadka Yaabeesh Gilecaad deggan, iyo dumarka iyo yaryarkaba.
And the congregation sends twelve thousand men of the sons of valor there, and commands them, saying, “Go—and you have struck the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead by the mouth of the sword, even the women and the infants.
11 Oo waa inaad sidatan yeeshaan, oo aad inta lab oo dhan wada baabbi'isaan, iyo naag kasta oo nin la seexdayba.
And this [is] the thing which you do; every male, and every woman knowing the lying of a male, you devote.”
12 Markaasay dadkii Yaabeesh Gilecaad degganaa ka soo heleen afar boqol oo gabdhood oo dhallinyar oo wada bikrado ah, oo aan weligood ninna la seexan; oo waxay iyagii keeneen xeradii Shiiloh, taasoo ku tiil dalka reer Kancaan.
And they find four hundred young women, virgins, out of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead, who have not known man by the lying of a male, and they bring them to the camp at Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan.
13 Markaasaa shirkii oo dhammu wuxuu u cid diray oo la hadlay reer Benyaamiinkii joogay dhagaxii weynaa oo Rimmon, oo waxay ugu bishaareeyeen nabad.
And all the congregation sends [word] and speaks to the sons of Benjamin who [are] in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaims peace to them;
14 Oo markaasay reer Benyaamiin soo noqdeen, oo waxaa la siiyey naagihii iyagoo nool Yabeesh Gilecaad laga keenay ee ka hadhay naagihii dalkaas; oo weliba kuma ay filnaan.
and Benjamin turns back at that time, and they give to them the women whom they have kept alive of the women of Jabesh-Gilead, and they have not found for [all of] them so.
15 Oo dadkii waxay u qoomamoodeen reer Benyaamiin, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu dillaac buu u yeelay qabiilooyinkii reer binu Israa'iil.
And the people sighed concerning Benjamin, for YHWH had made a breach among the tribes of Israel.
16 Markaasaa odayaashii shirku waxay yidhaahdeen, Bal inta hadhay sidee baynu naago ugu yeelnaa, maxaa yeelay, naagihii waa laga baabbi'iyey reer Benyaamiin?
And [the] elderly of the congregation say, “What do we do to the remnant for wives—for the women have been destroyed out of Benjamin?”
17 Oo waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Intii reer Benyaamiin ka baxsatay waa inay dhaxal helaan, si aan qabiil uga baabbi'in reer binu Israa'iil.
And they say, “A possession of an escaped party [is] to Benjamin, and a tribe is not blotted out from Israel;
18 Habase ahaatee waa inaynaan gabdhaheenna iyaga u guurin; waayo, reer binu Israa'iil waxay ku dhaarteen, oo yidhaahdeen, Inkaaru ha ku dhacdo kii gabadh u guuriya reer Benyaamiin.
and we are not able to give wives to them out of our daughters, for the sons of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed [is] he who is giving a wife to Benjamin.”
19 Oo haddana waxay yidhaahdeen, Bal eeg, sannad ka sannad waxaa jirta iidda Rabbiga ee lagu sameeyo Shiiloh, taasoo woqooyi ka xigta Beytel, oo ah dhanka bari oo waddada weyn oo Shekem aadda oo Beytel ka tagta, iyo Leboonaah xaggeeda koonfureed.
And they say, “Behold, a festival of YHWH [is] in Shiloh, from time to time, which [is] on the north of Beth-El, at the rising of the sun, by the highway which is going up from Beth-El to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.”
20 Markaasay waxay reer Benyaamiin ku amreen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Taga oo ku gaada beeraha canabka ah dhexdooda;
And they command the sons of Benjamin, saying, “Go—and you have laid wait in the vineyards,
21 oo bal eega, haddii ay gabdhaha reer Shiiloh u soo baxaan inay cayaaraan, de markaas ka soo baxa beeraha canabka ah, oo nin kastaaba naag ha ka qabsado gabdhaha reer Shiiloh, oo markaas waxaad la tagtaan dalka reer Benyaamiin.
and have seen, and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances—then you have gone out from the vineyards, and each caught his wife out of the daughters of Shiloh for yourselves, and have gone to the land of Benjamin;
22 Oo markay aabbayaashood ama walaalahood noo soo cawdaan, waxaannu iyaga ku odhan doonnaa, Warroy raalli nooga ahaada iyaga; maxaa yeelay, annagu ninna dagaalkii naag ugama aannan reebin. Idinna ma aydnaan siin iyaga, haddii kalese haatan eed baad lahaan lahaydeen.
and it has been, when their fathers or their brothers come in to plead to us, that we have said to them, Favor us [by] them, for we have not each taken his wife in battle, for you have not given [wives] to them at this time, [so] you are [not] guilty.”
23 Oo reer Benyaamiinna sidii bay yeeleen, oo waxay intii tiradoodu ahaydba naago ka qaateen kuwii cayaarayay, oo way la tageen; oo waxay tageen oo ku noqdeen dalkoodii ay dhaxalka u heleen, oo magaalooyinkiina way dhiseen oo degeen.
And the sons of Benjamin do so, and take women according to their number, out of the dancers whom they have seized; and they go, and return to their inheritance, and build the cities, and dwell in them.
24 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna markaasay halkaas ka tageen. Oo nin waluba wuxuu tegey qabiilkiisii iyo xaaskiisii, oo halkaas intay ka tageen ayaa nin waluba wuxuu u kacay dalkiisii dhaxalka ahaa.
And the sons of Israel go up and down there at that time, each to his tribe, and to his family; and they each go out there to his inheritance.
25 Waagaasna reer binu Israa'iil boqor ma ay lahayn; oo nin walubana wuxuu samayn jiray wixii isaga la qumman.
In those days there is no king in Israel; each does that which is right in his own eyes.
