Xaakinnada 3
1 Haddaba kuwanu waa quruumihii Rabbigu u daayay inuu reer binu Israa'iil ku tijaabiyo, oo waxay ahaayeen in alla intii aan ogayn dagaalladii reer Kancaan oo dhan;
The following are the nations the Lord left and used to test all those Israelites who had not known what it was like to be part of any of the wars in Canaan.
2 inay reer binu Israa'iil ogaadaan oo uu iyaga baro dagaal ayan waxba ka aqoon jirin.
(He did so to teach warfare to the later generations of Israel, particularly to those who had not previously experienced it.)
3 Oo kuwaasu waxay ahaayeen shantii amiir oo reer Falastiin, iyo reer Kancaan oo dhan, iyo reer Siidoon, iyo reer Xiwi, oo degganaa Buur Lubnaan, iyo tan iyo Buur Bacal Xermoon, iyo tan iyo meesha laga galo Xamaad.
They are: the five rulers of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites living in the mountains of Lebanon from Mount Baal-hermon to Lebo-hamath.
4 Oo kuwaas waxaa loo daayay in reer binu Israa'iil lagu tijaabiyo, in la ogaado bal inay dhegaysanayaan amarradii Rabbiga oo uu ku amray awowayaashood oo uu Muuse soo faray iyo in kale.
They were left there be to a test for the Israelites, to find out whether the Israelites would keep the Lord's commandments which he had given their forefathers through Moses.
5 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay dhex degeen reer Kancaan, kuwaas oo ahaa reer Xeed, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Feris, iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Yebuus.
They lived among the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
6 Oo gabdhahoodiina way ka guursadeen, oo kuwoodiina wiilashoodii bay u guuriyeen, oo waxay u adeegeen ilaahyadoodii.
The Israelites intermarried with them, marrying their daughters, giving their own daughters to their sons, and worshiped their gods.
7 Oo reer binu Israa'iilna waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun, oo Rabbiga Ilaahooda ahna way illoobeen, wayna u adeegeen Bacaliimkii iyo geedihii Asheeraah.
The Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight. They ignored the Lord their God and worshiped the images of Baals and Asherahs.
8 Sidaas daraaddeed cadhadii Rabbigu aad bay ugu kululaatay reer binu Israa'iil, oo wuxuu iyagii ka iibiyey boqorkii Mesobotamiya oo ahaa Kuushan Rishcaatayim; oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay Kuushan Rishcaatayim u adeegayeen siddeed sannadood.
The Lord became angry with Israel, so he sold them to Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram Naharaim. The Israelites were subject to Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.
9 Oo markii reer binu Israa'iil ay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, Rabbigu wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil u kiciyey badbaadiye, kaasoo badbaadiyey, oo wuxuu ahaa Cotnii'eel ina Qenas oo ahaa Kaaleeb walaalkiisii yaraa.
But when the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, he provided someone to rescue them, Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, and he saved them.
10 Oo kaas waxaa ku soo degay Ruuxa Rabbiga, oo wuxuu xukumi jiray reer binu Israa'iil. Dagaal buuna u baxay, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu gacantiisii u geliyey boqorkii Mesobotamiya oo ahaa Kuushan Rishcaatayim, oo isna wuu ka gacan sarreeyey Kuushan Rishcaatayim.
The Spirit of the Lord came on him, and he became Israel's judge. He went to war with Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram, and the Lord handed the king over to Othniel, who was victorious.
11 Markaasaa dalkii xasilloonaa afartan sannadood. Oo Cotnii'eel ina Qenas wuu dhintay.
As a result, the country was a peace for forty years until Othniel, son of Kenaz, died.
12 Oo reer binu Israa'iil mar kalay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun; markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu xoog u yeelay oo reer binu Israa'iil ku diray boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo ahaa Cegloon, maxaa yeelay, waxay sameeyeen wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku xun.
But once again the Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and because they did this the Lord gave power to Eglon, king of Moab, to conquer Israel.
13 Oo isna wuxuu soo urursaday reer Cammoon iyo reer Camaaleq; kolkaasuu intuu tegey laayay reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxay qabsadeen magaaladii lahayd geedo timireedka.
Eglon had the Ammonites and the Amalekite join him, and then attacked and defeated Israel, taking possession of the City of Palms.
14 Oo reer binu Israa'iil waxay boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo Cegloon ahaa u adeegayeen siddeed iyo toban sannadood.
The Israelites were subject to Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years.
15 Laakiinse markii reer binu Israa'iil ay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, Rabbigu wuxuu u kiciyey badbaadiye, kaasoo ahaa Eehuud ina Geeraa, oo reer Benyaamiin, oo ahaa nin gurran. Isaga ayay reer binu Israa'iil hadiyad ugu soo dhiibeen Cegloon kii ahaa boqorkii reer Moo'aab.
Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, and he provided someone to rescue them, Ehud, son of Gera the Benjamite, a left-handed man. The Israelites sent him to pay the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab.
16 Oo Eehuudna wuxuu samaystay seef laba af leh, oo dhererkeedu yahay dhudhun, oo wuxuu ku xidhay meel dharkiisa ka hoosaysa oo ah bowdadiisa midig.
Ehud had made for himself a cubit long double-edged sword, and he strapped it to his right thigh under his clothes.
17 Oo wuxuu hadiyaddii u dhiibay boqorkii reer Moo'aab oo ahaa Cegloon; Cegloonna wuxuu ahaa nin aad u buuran.
He came and presented the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man.
18 Oo markuu dhammeeyey bixintii hadiyadda ayuu diray dadkii hadiyadda siday.
Then after delivering the tribute he sent home those who had helped carry it.
19 Laakiinse Eehuud wuxuu ka soo noqday dhagaxyadii qorqornaa Gilgaal agteeda, oo wuxuu yidhi, Boqorow, anigu waxaan kuu wadaa farriin qarsoon. Markaasuu yidhi, Iska aamus. Oo dadkii hareerihiisa taagnaa oo dhammuna dibadday uga baxeen isagii.
But when he reached the stone idols near Gilgal, he turned back. He went to see Eglon, and told him, “Your Majesty, I have a secret message for you.” The king told his attendants, “Silence!” and they all left.
20 Markaasaa Eehuud u yimid isagii; oo isna wuxuu keligiis fadhiyey qowladdii uu ku laydhsan jiray, markaasaa Eehuud wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaan farriin kaaga wadaa Ilaah. Markaasuu ka soo kacay kursigiisii.
Ehud then went over to where Eglon was sitting alone in his cool upstairs room, and told him, “I have a message from God for you.” As the king got up from his seat,
21 Oo Eehuudna wuxuu soo bixiyey gacantiisii bidix, oo wuxuu seeftii kala soo baxay dhinaca bowdadiisii midig, markaasuu Cegloon caloosha kaga muday,
Ehud grabbed his sword with his left hand from his right thigh and drove it into Eglon's belly.
22 oo xataa daabkiina waa galay afkii dabadiis, oo seefta afkeediina waxaa qariyey xaydhii, waayo, seeftii kama uu soo bixin calooshiisii; oo uus baa ka yimid.
The handle went in with the blade and the fat closed over it. So Ehud didn't pull the sword out, and the king defecated.
23 Markaasaa Eehuud wuxuu u baxay xagga qolqolka, oo uu soo xidhay qowladda albaabbadeedii, wuuna qufulay.
Then Ehud closed and locked the doors, and escaped through the toilet.
24 Haddaba markuu tegey waxaa yimid addoommadii Cegloon, markaasay intay wax fiiriyeen arkeen albaabbadii qowladda oo qufulan; kolkaasay waxay isyidhaahdeen, Hubaal wuu isku deday qowladdiisa uu ku laydhsado.
After he had left, the servants came and saw that the doors of the room were locked. “He must be using the toilet,” they concluded.
25 Oo way sugeen ilaa ay isla yaabeen; oo bal eeg isna albaabbadii qowladda ma uu furin, sidaas daraaddeed furahay qaadeen oo albaabbaday fureen, oo markaasay arkeen sayidkoodii oo dhulka ku dhacay oo meyd ah.
So they waited until they couldn't stand it any more, and since he still hadn't opened the doors of the room, they went and found the key and opened the doors. There was their lord, lying dead on the floor.
26 Eehuudna waa baxsaday intay sugayeen, oo wuxuu dhaafay dhagaxyadii qorqornaa, oo wuxuu u fakaday xagga Seciiraah.
While the servants delayed acting, Ehud escaped, passing the stone idols and on to Seirah.
27 Oo markuu yimid dalkii buuraha lahaa oo reer Efrayim ayuu afuufay buun, oo reer binu Israa'iilna isagay kala dhaadhaceen dalkii buuraha lahaa, oo isna wuu hor socday.
When he got there, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites joined him. They went down from the hills, with Ehud leading them.
28 Oo wuxuu ku yidhi, I soo raaca, waayo, Rabbigu gacantiinnuu soo geliyey reer Moo'aab oo cadaawayaashiinnii ah. Oo iyana isagay ka daba dhaadhaceen, oo waxay reer Moo'aab ka qabsadeen meeshii webiga Urdun laga gudbi jiray, oo ninna uma ay oggolaan inuu ka gudbo.
He told them, “Follow me, for the Lord has handed Moab, your enemy, over to you.” So they followed him down and took control of the fords of the Jordan leading to Moab. They didn't let anyone cross.
29 Oo markaasay reer Moo'aab ka laayeen rag toban kun ku dhow, kuwaas oo ahaa kuwo xoog wada leh, oo xataa nin keliyuhu kama baxsan.
Then they attacked the Moabites and killed around 10,000 of their best and strongest fighting men. Not a single one escaped.
30 Sidaasay reer Moo'aab ku hoos galeen reer binu Israa'iil; dalkiina wuu xasilloonaa siddeetan sannadood.
Moab was conquered that day and made subject to Israel, and the country was at peace for eighty years.
31 Oo isagii ka dibna waxaa kacay Shamgar ina Canaad, kaasoo reer Falastiin lix boqol oo nin kaga laayay usha dibida lagu shuqeeyo, oo isaguna reer Israa'iil wuu badbaadiyey.
After Ehud was Shamgar, son of Anath, who killed six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad. He also rescued Israel.
